Chapter Knocking at the Door in the Middle of the Night
Back in the dormitory, Qiao Liang took a shower, then lay on the sofa in his pajamas and watched TV. While watching, he thought about the worries Li Youwei mentioned during dinner tonight. The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he became.
In fact, Qiao Liang understood that the key point that Li Youwei was worried about was Guan Xinmin. With the current delicate relationship between Guan Xinmin and Liao Gufeng, he was solely responsible for handling the matter this time, and he didn't know how he would act and guide it.
And this was also the main reason why Qiao Liang was uneasy. After all, between An Zhe and Luo Fei, Guan Xinmin undoubtedly favored Luo Fei.
After pondering for a long time, Qiao Liang thought of An Zhe. This guy had never called him and seemed to be very calm. However, he was losing his temper. It seemed that he had to take the initiative to call him.
Qiao Liang took out his mobile phone and called Anzhe, and the call was answered in a moment.
"Boss, are you still in Songxi?" Qiao Liang said.
"Well, yes." An Zhe's calm voice came from the phone.
"I know the investigation team talked to you this morning." Qiao Liang said.
"I also know that the investigation team talked to you this afternoon." An Zhe said.
"Yes, when you sent me the text message, I had just arrived at the hot spring town hotel. How did you know?"
"I won't tell you."
Qiao Liang grinned: "Well... well, if you don't tell me, I won't ask."
"But you already asked."
Qiao Liang subconsciously grinned again: "This...then I won't ask anymore."
An Zhe continued: "Why are you calling me?"
"Nothing's wrong, I'm just a little uneasy."
"Since I'm restless, something must be wrong."
Qiao Liang hesitated for a moment: "Boss, what are you thinking about at the moment?"
"I'm thinking about the problems discovered during today's investigation," An Zhe said.
"You lied."
"What? Are you not satisfied with this answer?"
"Yes, not satisfied, very dissatisfied."
"What can you do to me if you're not satisfied? Qike?"
"No."
"What do you owe?"
"I owe you the truth."
"You kid... do you think I should say that I am just like you, thinking about the post and investigation, in order to be satisfied?"
"Well, yes, these past two days, this matter has been all over my mind. I think you should think more about it too."
"Is it useful?" Anzhe asked.
Qiao Liang didn't know what to say for a moment, and subconsciously scratched his head: "Even...even if it's useless, I still have to think about it."
An Zhe was silent for a moment: "Liang Zi, it's okay to think about some things, but you can't think about them too much; some things are beyond our control, and thinking about them too much will not have any effect except just increasing worries; some things, it's okay to think about them too much."
What is clear is what is turbid, and what is right and what is unfair depends on the human heart. At this time, you must believe that the higher authorities will not wrongly accuse a good person."
"But, boss, what I'm most worried about right now is the one above." Qiao Liang said.
"What do you mean by this?" An Zhe asked.
"It's very simple. The joint investigation team that came down this time was sent by Leader Guan, and he is fully responsible for this matter."
"What's wrong? Don't you believe him?"
"I would like to believe it, but due to certain factors, I really can't help but think more about it."
"What did you think of?"
"I thought that even if this matter is finally investigated and it is proven that the parties involved in the post are innocent and you have no problem, the higher-ups will find a high-sounding reason to transfer you away from Jiangzhou for some reason."
Anzhe was silent for a moment, and then said, "Who gave you the advice?"
"Why do you say someone pointed me out?" Qiao Liang said.
"Nonsense, based on what I know about you, you can't think of this in your head right now." An Zhe said simply.
Qiao Liang couldn't help but admire An Zhe. This guy is so awesome. You can see this. It seems that he really has a thorough understanding of himself.
"Boss, you are really inscrutable, sharp and perceptive, I admire you."
"Stop flattering, tell me, was it Li Youwei who inspired you?"
"Hey, I don't need to say it. Yes, yes, I had dinner with him tonight, and he expressed this concern, and he also said that if nothing else, you should also consider this."
"Well, this President Li has been in the system after all, and he still has some perspective when it comes to problems." An Zhe's tone contained a bit of appreciation, but it was almost acquiescence.
Once he realized that Anzhe had acquiesced, Qiao Liang felt a little nervous again, and then asked: "Boss, what do you think about this?"
"What else can I think about? Is it useful to think too much? As a member of the system, some of my destiny cannot be completely controlled by myself. You should understand this very well." An Zhe said calmly.
After hearing An Zhe's words, Qiao Liang felt a chill in his heart. Damn it, although An Zhe had thought of this, he seemed a little helpless, sitting back and watching.
Qiao Liang was unwilling to accept it: "Boss, we can't wait like this. I have to think of a way."
"Liang Zi, what can you do?" An Zhe said.
"I think you should take the initiative to communicate with Boss Liao..."
"Haha..." An Zhe laughed, "Deputy Director Qiao, do you think this method is feasible?"
"It works. He is the boss of Jiangdong. Without him speaking, no one can touch you."
"If you say that, why should you worry?"
"I...I'm worried that once someone finds some high-sounding reason to transfer you away from Jiangzhou, other senior officials in Huangyuan will not be able to object. The person who is particularly responsible for handling this matter is Guan..."
An Zhe interrupted Qiao Liang: "Liangzi, don't you think what you said is inconsistent?"
"Well, it does seem that there are some contradictions, but I can't find unity in these contradictions." Qiao Liang said.
An Zhe said: "If you can't find unity, it means that your view of the problem is still too simple. Let's put it this way, not only you, but maybe I don't understand the behind-the-scenes of this Jiangzhou storm, the levels it affects, and the subtleties involved.
Think it through thoroughly.
The investigation is now underway, with countless pairs of eyes staring up and down, with various thoughts and speculations. The speculations are various, and the thoughts are complex and changeable. During this period, any subtle fluctuations or events will affect many people.
Therefore, until the end, the result is unpredictable. Instead of thinking hard about it, it is better to just relax and let everything take its course."
Although Qiao Liang seemed to understand An Zhe's words, he still felt a little at ease in his heart.
Then An Zhe said: "Deputy Director Qiao, is there anything else?"
"No more for now." Qiao Liang said.
"Then go to sleep." Anzhe said and hung up the phone.
Qiao Liang looked at the time. It was just 10 o'clock. If he was not sleepy at this time, An Zhe might not be able to fall asleep either.
Qiao Liang continued to lie on the sofa, smoking and recalling what An Zhe had just said. He had just suggested that An Zhe take the initiative to communicate with Liao Gufeng. His attitude was very vague. I wonder if he had approached Liao Gufeng, but based on what he knew
Regarding Anzhe's behavior, given the current situation and the nature of the matter, it is unlikely that he would take the initiative to approach Liao Gufeng.
In this case, will Liao Gufeng take the initiative to call An Zhe?
Qiao Liang was not sure for a while, but then he thought that since Liao Gufeng had approached him alone to understand the situation and asked him to keep it secret, judging from this, it seemed that he would not approach An Zhe.
If so, it seems that Liao Gufeng and An Zhe are both calm at the moment. One is holding a steady meeting in the capital, and the other is doing research step by step below, as if the current storm has nothing to do with them. I wonder what their inner feelings are at this time.
What do you think?
Based on Qiao Liang's superficial experience, he felt confused at this time, but in the confusion, he also vaguely felt that, just as An Zhe said just now, the levels affected by this storm and some of the things in it seemed indeed complicated, so complicated that he now thought
Can't see through.
It's normal to think about it. With Anzhe's profound knowledge and experience, he can't fully figure it out now, let alone himself.
In this way, it seems unnecessary for me to worry about gains and losses now.
Nima, feel free to do whatever you want, don’t think about it anymore, it’s a waste of your brain thinking about it.
Qiao Liang put out his cigarette butt, turned off the TV, got up, went to the bedroom, and fell asleep.
I don't know how much time passed, but in his sleep, Qiao Liang heard a rapid knock on the door.
Qiao Liang opened his eyes in a daze, turned on the bedside lamp, and looked at the time: 2 a.m.
Damn it, who is knocking on the door in the middle of the night?
Qiao Liang got out of bed in confusion, staggered to the door, and said angrily: "Who?"
