In the early morning, the sun slowly rises from the horizon.
Today was Saturday, and there was no work scheduled. Qiao Liang slept until about 7 o'clock in the morning. Seeing the sun shining in through the gaps in the curtains, Qiao Liang checked the time and then slowly got up.
Feeling a little sticky down there, Qiao Liang was stunned for a moment, thinking that it couldn't be the case. He opened up the bottom and took a look, and couldn't help but lean in. It turned out...
Thinking of the phone call with Wu Huiwen last night, and then having a dream related to Wu Huiwen last night, in which Wu Huiwen was dealt with, Qiao Liang smiled bitterly, probably for this reason.
Qiao Liang took a shower and then washed himself. Seeing that He Qingqing hadn't come to call him yet, he thought he might not be going to the city that soon, so he walked through the door on the wall behind the dormitory and went to the back mountain to exercise.
The back mountain was covered with dense forest. The county had built a walking path before. Qiao Liang started running along the walking path. By now, the sun had risen above his head and the chill of the early morning was gone.
Running halfway up the mountain, Qiao Liang was stunned for a moment when he saw Ding Xiaoyun walking down the mountain. He saw Ding Xiaoyun wearing a white sportswear, with a red face and a slight sweat. Qiao Liang couldn't help but said: "Secretary Ding, you too
Come to exercise?”
"Yes, I got up a little late today, otherwise I would normally come here after six o'clock." Ding Xiaoyun said with a smile.
The two stopped halfway up the mountain. Ding Xiaoyun looked at Qiao Liang and blushed slightly: "County Chief Qiao, I drank too much last night, so I didn't do anything extraordinary, right?"
"Secretary Ding, guess what." Qiao Liang smiled.
"Ah?" Ding Xiaoyun was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said, "How could I have guessed that I drank too much last night and can't remember anything."
"You really can't remember?" Qiao Liang smiled and blinked, "Secretary Ding, think about it again."
"I can't remember, just forget it if you don't tell me." Ding Xiaoyun saw Qiao Liang's expression was strange, and his heartbeat accelerated for no reason, thinking that he might not have really done anything extraordinary last night.
With this thought in his mind, Ding Xiaoyun did not ask any more questions and said: "County Magistrate Qiao, you continue to exercise. I have finished running and will go back first."
Seeing Ding Xiaoyun about to leave, Qiao Liang suddenly smiled and said: "Secretary Ding, you kissed me last night."
"No...it can't be." Ding Xiaoyun was startled when he heard this, and his face turned red. He glanced at Qiao Liang and saw a naughty smile on Qiao Liang's face. Ding Xiaoyun's heart trembled again, "County Magistrate Qiao,
Are you kidding me?"
"No, I'm telling the truth. I didn't take a video last night, otherwise Secretary Ding wouldn't be suspicious." Qiao Liang chuckled.
I'm going to die! Ding Xiaoyun was so ashamed when he heard what Qiao Liang said. He thought to himself that he was still filming a video. This Qiao Liang is simply too bad. Ding Xiaoyun thought so in his heart, but he was not angry at Qiao Liang at all. On the contrary, Qiao Liang
This bad look made Ding Xiaoyun's heart beat even harder. He said in a panic, "I'm leaving first," and left in a hurry.
Qiao Liang looked at Ding Xiaoyun's fleeing figure and was secretly amused. Ding Xiaoyun's shy look was also very charming.
At this moment, Qiao Liang couldn't help but think of Wu Huiwen. The way Ding Xiaoyun smoked last night reminded Qiao Liang of Wu Huiwen. The other person's temperament was very similar to Zhang Lin, but the way he smoked looked like Wu Huiwen. At this time, Ding Xiaoyun, in Qiao Liang's eyes,
Zhang Lin and Wu Huiwen seemed to overlap in my mind, like a combination of the two people.
Thinking of the dream he had with Wu Huiwen last night, Qiao Liang had another impulse.
After a while, Qiao Liang shook his head, eliminated all the messy thoughts in his mind, and continued running up the mountain.
After the run, Qiao Liang returned to the dormitory. He Qingqing happened to come over and thoughtfully brought Qiao Liang breakfast.
"County Magistrate Qiao, haven't you had breakfast yet?" He Qingqing said with a smile.
"Not yet, I just came back from a run." Qiao Liang said, "Are you ready to go? Wait for me to take a shower, and we will leave later."
"Don't worry, wait until County Magistrate Qiao has finished his breakfast before leaving." He Qingqing laughed, "Anyway, we are going to disrupt this blind date, so it would be better if we were a little late."
"I feel so tragic for your blind date. If you encounter someone who deliberately sabotages it, it would be better not to go on a blind date." Qiao Liang said with a smile.
The two joked for a while, and Qiao Liang went to take a shower again. After breakfast, the two drove to the city.
The journey went smoothly. It was almost noon when we arrived in the city. He Qingqing said, "County Magistrate Qiao, let's go shopping first and then go back later."
"Aren't you going now?" Qiao Liang asked in confusion.
"Although the other party and I have made an appointment to have dinner together at noon, we don't have to be too punctual. Let's walk around for a while and get a feel for it." He Qingqing said, with a slight blush on her pretty face, "You want to pretend to be my boyfriend?
You have to act like one. If you can’t call me Director He later, just call me Xiaoqing. I won’t call you County Magistrate Qiao anymore. How about I call you Qiao Liang?”
"Well, yes, you are very thoughtful." Qiao Liang chuckled.
"Then let's pretend to be a couple and go shopping first." After He Qingqing finished speaking, he took the initiative to hold Qiao Liang's arm.
"This way, they really look like a couple." Qiao Liang smiled, feeling her arm touch a soft ball, Qiao Liang grinned, "Director He, you are really good."
"You've got a bargain but you still act like a good boy." He Qingqing said with a blushing smile,
The two walked around the street for a while, and when they saw that it was already past the time, He Qingqing pointed to the nearby Xizhou Hotel and said, "Let's go, let's go there now."
When the two went to the Xizhou Hotel, in a restaurant box by the window on the second floor of the hotel, a man about 28 or 9 years old raised his hand to look at his watch from time to time, while complaining to his mobile phone: "Mom, what time did you say?
Is it reliable or not? It’s past 12 o’clock and I haven’t even seen a ghost. It’s a shame I came here early.”
"The time is correct, I just confirmed it."
"Then why haven't they come yet? This woman is too unpunctual. She is always waiting for me, but she has never waited for me before."
"Anyway, you have nothing to do. Just wait for a while. You have also seen this girl's photos. Aren't you quite satisfied? If this happens, she will be your wife from now on. For this lifelong event,
It's okay to wait." The woman on the other end of the phone smiled and said, "That's it for now. Just wait patiently. When the girl comes, you have to act more elegant and gentlemanly. Don't think you are abroad.
Bring over what you learned."
"Okay, I get it, Mom, you are so long-winded."
After the man finished speaking, he hung up the phone and looked at the time again. Damn it, it was already twenty minutes overtime. In the past, others were waiting for him, Mr. Wang, but today was better. He had been waiting here for more than half an hour. If it hadn't been for him
After looking at that girl's photo, I seemed to like her, so I would have walked away long ago.
While the man was cursing in his mind, there was a knock on the door. The man's expression perked up, and he thought he was finally here, and shouted to come in.
He Qingqing and Qiao Liang pushed the door open. Inside the room, the man stood up at the same time, with a smile on his face, ready to greet the beauty. When he saw a man and a woman holding hands, they appeared at the same time. The man was stunned for a moment, thinking that he was a man who had gone to the wrong box.
As a couple, when their eyes fell on He Qingqing, the smile on the man's face froze. He subconsciously thought that he had seen it wrong. He took out the photo on his phone and checked it to confirm that he had made a mistake. The man's face suddenly became ugly.
"Hello, are you Mr. Wang Youde?" He Qingqing asked with a smile.
"Well, it's me. Are you He Qingqing?" Wang Youde frowned.
"That's right." He Qingqing smiled and nodded. Seeing Qiao Liang standing still, He Qingqing gave Qiao Liang a look and pulled Qiao Liang forward.
"Ms. He, what do you mean?" Wang Youde looked back and forth between He Qingqing and Qiao Liang, and said in a dull voice.
"Mr. Wang, I'm sorry, it's like this. I have a boyfriend, but the elders in my family don't believe it and have been trying to get me on a blind date. I had no choice but to bring my boyfriend over here." He Qingqing said with a smile.
Hearing He Qingqing's words, Wang Youde almost vomited blood. Damn it, he already has a boyfriend. Why did you come to have a kiss to amuse me?
Wang Youde was furious and said angrily: "If you have a boyfriend, just tell your elders clearly. What the hell is this? It's a waste of my time."
After Wang Youde finished speaking, he walked away angrily.
"Yeah, success." Seeing Wang Youde leaving, He Qingqing gestured excitedly.
"I see you've made people quite angry." Qiao Liang said with a smile.
"It's okay, you have to be very angry. Otherwise, how can you call it a mess?" He Qingqing chuckled, "This matter went much more smoothly than I thought. I thought it would take some effort, but I didn't expect it to be so simple.
"
"So it seems that my mission as a fake boyfriend has been completed?" Qiao Liang said with a smile. He did not expect that it was so simple.
"No, it's not finished yet. If my parents ask to take your boyfriend home later, they will have to ask County Magistrate Qiao to work harder." He Qingqing laughed.
"Then I have helped you so much, do you have to express my gratitude?" Qiao Liang laughed, "You are the one who invited me to have lunch today."
"No problem, let alone today, it's okay to just treat me to a few more meals." He Qingqing looked at Qiao Liang charmingly, "If County Magistrate Qiao wants me to be your long-term meal ticket, that's fine."
"Hey, what do you mean? You want me to be a softie and support me?" Qiao Liang said with a smile.
"I don't dare. This is what County Magistrate Qiao said himself." He Qingqing laughed.
The two were talking in the box. Wang Youde walked out of the hotel and immediately called his mother. When the call was connected, Wang Youde yelled angrily: "Mom, what are you doing? Find a woman with a boyfriend to follow me.
On a blind date, you are making fun of me."
"What did you say?" Wang Youde's mother on the other end of the phone was very surprised. "It's impossible. How could she have a boyfriend? If she had a boyfriend, why would her elders help her arrange a blind date?"
"Mom, why did I lie to you? I even brought my boyfriend. You said how embarrassed this made me. It's really embarrassing." Wang Youde said angrily, that is, to his mother, otherwise Wang Youde would have done this
Already got mad.
"Then I'll call and ask about the situation. It's exactly what you said. That's outrageous. Look what happened."
The two ended the call and Wang Youde drove away from the hotel. After a while, Wang Youde's mother called.
Wang Youde picked her up and listened to her mother say: "Youde, I asked, but the elders said she had no partner, and they even patted their chests and promised, otherwise they wouldn't dare to introduce her to us."
"Who knows if her elders are trustworthy? If she found a boyfriend by herself, her elders wouldn't know about it." Wang Youde curled his lips.
"But she said that she had already asked her parents, and her parents also assured her that she does not have a boyfriend." Wang Youde's mother said, "By the way, you can call and ask Shang Ke. Isn't this He Qingqing in Liangbei?"
She works for the county government, so I should ask Shang Ke to know her situation."
"Okay, I'll call Brother Ke and ask him, if He Qingqing doesn't have a boyfriend, then he's deliberately playing tricks on me today." Wang Youde said angrily.
Then Wang Youde hung up the phone, found Shang Ke's number on his phone and called it. (To be continued)
