A while after Zhang Haitao and Feng Yunming arrived, Ye Xinyi also arrived. We were all old acquaintances in Jiangzhou, and there was no need to introduce each other. As the host tonight, An Zhe was the first to pick up his wine glass and stand up after everyone arrived.
He stood up and said, "This is the first glass of wine tonight. Let's have a drink together and celebrate the arrival of the New Year in advance."
"Okay, cheers." Qiao Liang, Ye Xinyi, Feng Yunming and Zhang Haitao all stood up to join in, and everyone drank happily together.
After a few people sat down, An Zhe was about to bring the wine again, when Qiao Liang saw it and said hurriedly: "Secretary An, let me pour wine for everyone."
"Okay, come on." An Zhe nodded.
Hearing Qiao Liang call Secretary An, Zhang Haitao and Feng Yunming looked at each other and smiled slightly.
Qiao Liang filled everyone's plates one by one. Anzhe took a few bites of the food, then picked up the wine glass and looked at Zhang Haitao and Feng Yunming: "I dedicate this glass of wine to Comrade Haitao and Yunming. After I leave Jiangzhou, thank you
You two take good care of Xiao Qiao."
"Secretary An, you are being polite to us." Zhang Haitao said with a smile. On today's occasion, he also called An Zhe his previous position.
"That's right, Secretary An, what you said is too foreign. Besides, Xiao Qiao himself is a very capable person. For such young cadres, our Organization Department's own responsibility is to give more burdens and focus on training.
These are all what I should do." Feng Yunming said with a smile, and he also called An Zhe his previous position.
"No matter what I say, I have to thank you both." Anzhe smiled slightly, "Come on, don't say anything more, I'll drink this to you, drink it up."
The three of them had a drink, and Qiao Liang's eyes were slightly red. He did not expect An Zhe to toast Zhang Haitao and Feng Yunming for him, which meant that An Zhe was always thinking about him and paying attention to his growth, just like an elder, silently
Protecting him.
Qiao Liang filled everyone's glasses with wine, stood up and said, "Secretary-General, Minister Feng, thank you for taking care of and supporting me. Without you, I wouldn't be where I am today."
"Well, Xiao Qiao, we gladly accept the glass of wine you proposed." Feng Yunming smiled, and Zhang Haitao also nodded.
The three of them drank another drink, then sat down and started chatting about recent interesting things in work and life. Zhang Haitao and Feng Yunming were quite emotional about Luo Fei's successful replacement of An Zhe as Jiangzhou City Secretary. In their eyes,
Luo Fei is not very capable, but he has a prosperous official career, and this is how it is in the system. If the leader thinks you are good, you can be good. If the leader thinks you are not good, you will not be good no matter how good you are. Sometimes promotion really has nothing to do with ability, but the leader's vision.
Is there anyone like you in there?
"Now that the changes above have been finalized, the new boss of the province has taken office, and I don't know what kind of behavior he will have." Zhang Haitao said with emotion. He is in the position of secretary-general, and the change of the top leader will affect all aspects of work.
The changes brought about are the most profound.
"The new boss in the province is too far away from us. What we have to consider is what kind of changes Secretary Luo will bring to the city after he takes office." Feng Yunming said with a smile.
"I think he has nothing but three abilities. To be honest, if he serves as the secretary of Jiangzhou City, I have no hope for the development of the city." Zhang Haitao shook his head.
"Comrade Haitao, be careful what you say." An Zhe frowned slightly.
"Secretary An, there are no outsiders here, so I dare to say this." Zhang Haitao said with a smile.
An Zhe frowned slightly. In his impression, Zhang Haitao had always been a very cautious person. To say something like this at this moment showed how disdainful he was towards Luo Fei.
"No matter what, as members of the city's team, you must try your best to support and cooperate with Comrade Luo Fei's work. Let's work together to build Jiangzhou better and better." An Zhe said, pausing.
, and pointed out, "Of course, we must support the good ones, and dare to stick to the principles and correct the bad ones."
“Secretary An’s speeches are always from a high point and full of overall perspective,” said Feng Yunming.
Anzhe smiled slightly and said nothing.
Then everyone chatted while drinking, and the atmosphere at the wine table was harmonious.
At this time, from the conversations between An Zhe, Feng Yunming and Zhang Haitao, Qiao Liang learned the name and origin of the new boss of Jiangdong Province. He couldn't help but be surprised. It turned out that the new boss of Jiangdong Province was Guan Xinmin who led a delegation to inspect the Northwest Province.
, the ministry leader who went from the capital to the northwest province for investigation, followed him to Jincheng, and Guan Xinmin suddenly interrupted his activity schedule in Jincheng and went to Xizhou. At that time, Qiao Liang was a little confused about this, but he couldn't figure out the reason.
When Qiao Liang learned that this person was parachuted into Jiangdong Province as the top leader, Qiao Liang couldn't help but think of Guan Xinmin's sudden change of inspection schedule, and couldn't help but feel that Guan Xinmin and this new top leader seemed to have some kind of subtle relationship.
Qiao Liang couldn't help but think, An Zhe was in Xizhou at that time, and he could feel this way now, but what about An Zhe? Maybe An Zhe had thought of something at that time, but he just didn't tell himself.
Qiao Liang recalled An Zhe's unpredictable expression when she and An Zhe talked about Guan Xinmin's sudden change of schedule and came to Xizhou that night, and couldn't help but confirm this.
Qiao Liang couldn't help but sigh, human affairs matters are really unpredictable. It is like this below, and it is also the same above. Who would have thought at that time that the department leader who went to Jincheng from the capital to investigate would become the top leader in Jiangdong Province?
While feeling sorry for Qiao Liang, he drank with everyone. They talked and laughed, and the meal passed quickly.
Tonight, Qiao Liang was very happy because she was having dinner with An Zhe and seeing Zhang Haitao, Feng Yunming and Ye Xinyi. In addition, An Zhe had a large drinking capacity, so he would drink at the first mention, and drink at the first touch, so he drank unknowingly.
He was so drunk that he even forgot how he got back to the hotel. It wasn't until he woke up the next day and Qiao Liang found that Ye Xinyi was living in the room next to him, that he realized that it was Ye Xinyi who sent him back last night.
"Xinyi, was it hard to send me back last night?" Qiao Liang got up early in the morning and asked in Ye Xinyi's room.
"You still have the nerve to say that you are like a dead pig when you are drunk. I spent a lot of effort to get you back and almost vomited on me." Ye Xinyi rolled her eyes at Qiao Liang.
"Ah? I vomited last night?" Qiao Liang said in surprise.
"What do you think?" Ye Xinyi yawned and said, "I cleaned up for you all night long last night. I didn't get enough sleep. When I woke up in the morning, my arms and legs were sore."
"My favorite, thank you so much. Hey, you are so virtuous. I don't know how to thank you. How about I pledge myself to you?" Qiao Liang said with a smile.
"I want to flatter you, but I think you want to take advantage of me in disguise." Ye Xinyi snorted.
"Oh, how can you say that I am taking advantage of you? I am willing to give you my life because I have nothing in return." Qiao Liang grinned and said, "My favorite, are your arms and legs sore? Come here, let me massage you."
Qiao Liang said and walked forward. Ye Xinyi quickly pushed Qiao Liang to prevent Qiao Liang from getting closer. The two started laughing and joking. Ye Xinyi saw that it was getting late and quickly stopped Qiao Liang: "Stop making trouble, let's
We still have to take a bus back to Jiangzhou to have breakfast and go."
After hearing what Ye Xinyi said, Qiao Liang gave up.
The two had breakfast at the hotel, and then rushed to Huangyuan Passenger Transport Center Station to take the bus back to Jiangzhou.
There are still small snowflakes floating in the sky, as if a silver wedding dress is covering the world, adding a bit of hazy beauty to the world.
Ye Xinyi has a literary and youthful temperament in her heart. When she saw this snow-white world, she felt inexplicably excited. With a smile in her eyes, she turned to look at Qiao Liang: "This scenery is so beautiful. I really want to write an article about snow."
prose."
"Then you write. With your literary talent, you can submit it directly to the Prose Monthly." Qiao Liang said.
"Forget it, I'm usually very busy with work. I just write and write all day long. Now that I'm on holiday, I don't want to find anything to do for myself." Ye Xinyi said.
"That's right, you should have a good rest during the holidays." Qiao Liang followed.
While talking to Ye Xinyi, Qiao Liang suddenly remembered that he seemed to have not done something last night, but now his head was still dizzy. The aftereffects of being drunk last night were still there, and Qiao Liang couldn't remember what it was.
I couldn't help but pat my head, wondering if I was delusional after drinking.
What Qiao Liang didn't know was that he almost missed his important event because of drinking.
At this moment, Liu Changxing’s office, Jincheng, Northwest Province.
Liu Changxing called a deputy minister over and explained, "Jiangdong Provincial Post Office has just contacted us and wants to end Qiao Liang's term of post in advance. We will cooperate with them in handling the matter according to relevant procedures and get it done as soon as possible in the next two days.
, don’t put it off until after the Chinese New Year.”
"Minister Liu, didn't Qiao Liang do a good job in his temporary post? Why did Jiangdong Province ask for an early end to Qiao Liang's temporary term?" the deputy minister asked strangely.
"Did Qiao Liang do a good job? Why didn't I see it?" Liu Changxing looked at the deputy minister in front of him with a half-smile, "The Internet was full of negative news related to Qiao Liang in the past two days, so you did a good job?
Maybe Jiangdong Province just feels that Qiao Liang has lost face as a temporary cadre and has affected their image as a cadre in Jiangdong Province, so they want to recall Qiao Liang in advance."
"Oh, yes." The deputy minister nodded hurriedly in agreement with Liu Changxing's words, "That is indeed what the minister said."
"Well, hurry up and do what I say. The Spring Festival is coming soon. This matter will be settled in the next two days before the end of the year." Liu Changxing emphasized again and said, "Qiao Liang may go back to celebrate the New Year. Let's hurry up.
We cooperated with the Jiangdong Provincial Post Office to handle this matter before the year, and we were able to notify Qiao Liang himself in time, so that he would not have to come over after his vacation after the year, saving him an extra trip."
The deputy minister nodded, said yes to Liu Changxing, and then said: "Minister, then I will go and do this."
"Go." Liu Changxing nodded, feeling very comfortable. When this matter was completed, even if Liao Gufeng knew about it, the rice would have been cooked. It was impossible for Liao Gufeng to go to war for Qiao Liang.
With this thought in his mind, Liu Changxing couldn't help but think of Luo Fei. This Luo Fei finally acted reliably.
Qiao Liang, who was far away in Jiangdong, was taking a bus from Huangyuan back to Jiangzhou with Ye Xinyi. After the bus left Huangyuan, the snow gradually became heavier on the road, and the sight on the highway gradually became worse. Qiao Liang and Ye Xinyi
Ye Xinyi sat together and looked at the heavy snow flying outside the window. Qiao Liang couldn't help but worry: "It's snowing heavily. If the highway is closed later, we won't be able to go back, right?"
"Probably not, please don't be so cynical." Ye Xinyi was startled. She was going back to celebrate the New Year with great joy, but she really couldn't go back.
"That's what I said." Qiao Liang smiled.
While the two were talking, the car suddenly turned into the service area next to it and stopped. When Qiao Liang saw this, he was stunned. What happened? He couldn't really be right, could he?
At this time, the bus driver stood up and said loudly to the passengers behind him: "It's snowing heavily ahead. We just received a notice that the highway will be closed. All cars can only leave from the nearest highway exit. We are here
The shuttle bus cannot go directly from the expressway to Jiangzhou. The nearest expressway exit is the Songbei exit, and we will have to get off the expressway from there later."
"Your crow's mouth is really right." Ye Xinyi glared at Qiao Liang.
"You can't blame me for this, it can only be said to be a coincidence." Qiao Liang said with a helpless smile.
As soon as Qiao Liang finished speaking, the phone in his pocket vibrated. Qiao Liang picked it up and saw that it was an unnamed message, only a series of numbers. Qiao Liang thought it was a harassing text message at first and was about to delete it.
Taking a casual glance, Qiao Liang's eyes widened and he leaned closer.
