Hearing Su Yuesheng's words, Luo Fei cursed in his heart, saying that he always used the same formula.
Scolding in his heart, Luo Fei did not dare to openly express any dissatisfaction with Su Yuesheng. It was his duty to help him if he wanted to, but it was his duty not to help him.
But if Su Yuesheng didn't want to help him, what did he want to do by asking him out so late?
Luo Fei was a little confused and looked at Su Yuesheng calmly, "Director Su, then why did you ask me out tonight..."
"Secretary Luo, the matter has reached this point. I wonder if you have ever thought about taking the initiative to explain the situation to the relevant departments in the province or to the main leaders in the province such as Guan Guan?" Su Yuesheng looked at Luo Fei.
Su Yuesheng's words were like a basin of cold water pouring down Luo Fei from head to toe, making Luo Fei feel chilled all over. What did Su Yuesheng mean? He was implying that he should take the initiative to confess?
For a moment, Luo Fei was a little angry. You, Su Yuesheng, are nothing. I respect you, but you... When Luo Fei was cursing in his heart, he suddenly froze, thinking about Su Yuesheng's identity, and thinking about the phone call between him and Guan Xinmin just now. Guan Xinmin's last meaningful words suddenly sent a chill down his spine. Could it be that this... was what Guan Xinmin meant? Was it Guan Xinmin's instruction that Su Yuesheng took the initiative to ask him out to talk about this?
Su Yuesheng had been observing Luo Fei's reaction. When he saw Luo Fei's expression, he thought that Luo Fei must have figured out something, and said quietly, "Secretary Luo, there is a saying that if you take one step forward, you will find yourself in an abyss. If you step on the ground, your body will be shattered into pieces, but if you take a step back, the sea and the sky will be brighter."
Listening to Su Yuesheng's words, Luo Fei remained silent. If he didn't understand now, he might as well get out as soon as possible.
His expression changed uncertainly, Luo Fei looked at Su Yuesheng and said, "Director Su, if you take a step back, will you still be shattered to pieces?"
"Secretary Luo, it shouldn't be that bad. Isn't there a famous saying from the relevant departments: Frankness and leniency, resistance..." Su Yuesheng said and suddenly stopped. He obviously realized that such words were not appropriate and coughed lightly. After making a sound, he immediately changed his words and said, "Secretary Luo, I believe that if you make the right choice, Leader Guan will have greater initiative. If he wants to help you speak, he will be able to speak better."
Su Yuesheng gave all the hints that should be done. His words were actually straightforward enough. If Luo Feifan still had some brains, he would not be unable to understand what he said. Therefore, Su Yuesheng remained silent after he finished speaking. , what he was waiting for was Luo Fei's reply, Guan Xinmin was also waiting.
Luo Fei sat dumbly and said nothing. At this time, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, his hands and feet were cold, and he was occupied by huge panic deep in his heart. But in addition to panic, Luo Fei also felt a sense of anger. He, who was one of Xinmin's closest confidants, was now thrown away like garbage?
At this moment, Luo Fei deeply felt the ruthlessness within the system. Even though he was the top leader in Jiangzhou City, he still felt powerless even though he had reached such a high position.
After a long time, Luo Fei swallowed and said with difficulty, "Director Su, can you let me go back and think about it?"
"Well, Secretary Luo should go back and think about it carefully." Su Yuesheng nodded and said, "But the opportunity is fleeting. Secretary Luo still has to seize the time. After all, the sooner this kind of thing happens, the better."
Luo Fei said nothing, but nodded indifferently.
Seeing that the official conversation was over, Su Yuesheng stood up and said, "Secretary Luo, I won't disturb you anymore. You should go back and rest early."
After Su Yuesheng finished speaking, he stood up and left, as if he didn't want to stay with Luo Fei for a moment longer.
Su Yuesheng did have a desire to avoid suspicion and didn't want people to see him and Luo Fei meeting secretly late at night. At the same time, in Su Yuesheng's eyes, Luo Fei was finished, and Luo Fei was worthless, so why should he waste more time with him? ?
Reality is often so cruel.
Before reaching the door, Su Yuesheng hesitated for a moment, then stopped and said, "Secretary Luo, if you take a step back, there may be a chance of a safe landing, even if you are transferred to another department to do a part-time job."
After Su Yuesheng finished speaking, he left without looking back.
Su Yuesheng left, and Luo Fei sat alone for a long time. Thinking of Su Yuesheng's words before leaving, he couldn't help but laugh sarcastically...
I don’t know how much time passed, but I finished smoking half a pack of cigarettes before I knew it. It was almost twelve o’clock before Luo Fei returned home.
It was almost early in the morning, but his wife Zhao Xiaolan was still sitting in the living room waiting for Luo Fei to come back. During this period, Zhao Xiaolan did not even dare to call and ask why Luo Fei hadn't come back for so long, for fear that it would affect Luo Fei and Su Yuesheng's business talk.
Zhao Xiaolan didn't know that Su Yuesheng had left long ago, and it was just Luo Fei who stayed in a daze.
"Lao Luo, what's the matter?" Zhao Xiaolan immediately stepped forward when she heard the sound of the door opening.
"Haha, all of them are such bastards. They will only add to the icing on the cake. It's impossible for others to help others when they need it." Luo Fei said with a sad smile.
"Director Su, aren't you willing to help?" Zhao Xiaolan was anxious.
"I never meant to help." Luo Fei smiled sarcastically, "He came to suggest that I take the initiative to confess to the superiors."
"Ah! How...how could this happen?" Zhao Xiaolan's face turned pale and she took two steps back.
The couple was speechless for a while. Zhao Xiaolan looked at Luo Fei blankly and said, "Lao Luo, what are you going to do?"
"What do you think I should do?" Luo Fei asked Zhao Xiaolan.
"If you take the initiative to confess, your career will be completely over." Zhao Xiaolan murmured.
"Yes, if I take the initiative to confess, my career will be over." Luo Fei looked downcast and seemed to be comforting himself, "But maybe I can get a chance to escape unscathed."
"Can you really escape unscathed?" Zhao Xiaolan looked at Luo Fei, her tone obviously full of doubts.
"If Chen Zhenggang stops staring at me, at least he can escape unscathed," Luo Fei said.
"But is that possible?" Zhao Xiaolan pursed her lips, "Chen Zhenggang's visit to Jiangzhou this time is obviously for you. Do you think he will give up?"
"If I take the initiative to confess, Leader Guan will be able to take the initiative, and it will be easier for me to speak for me then," Luo Fei said.
"At this point, do you think you can still believe what these leaders say?" Zhao Xiaolan looked sarcastic, "Anyway, I don't want to believe a word of it."
Luo Fei was silent. What Zhao Xiaolan said had never occurred to him, but what choice did he have? Having just sat alone in the hotel box for so long, Luo Fei had actually thought about it a lot and considered all the possibilities. After deducing, the result is that he has no choice, or chooses to fight to the end, but the outcome may be what Su Yuesheng said, one step forward will lead to an abyss; and if he chooses to do nothing, he will have a lucky mentality and imagine If you can get through this level safely, the ending will be what Su Yuesheng said, standing still and still being shattered into pieces.
After thinking about it, perhaps it was only Su Yuesheng who said that only by taking a step back would there be a chance for a brighter future, but it was just an opportunity. Su Yuesheng didn't give him any guarantee. In fact, the other party was not qualified to give him a guarantee, unless it was a matter of concern. Xinmin personally promised, but Guan Xinmin did not talk to him directly, but sent the message through Su Yuesheng. Guan Xinmin's attitude said everything.
Why did things suddenly happen like this? At this moment, Luo Fei once again asked himself in his heart, he couldn't accept it, and it was difficult to accept it for a while. He was the leader of Jiangzhou City with infinite glory, how could he suddenly fall to this point?
Suddenly, Zhao Xiaolan's eyes moved and she looked at Luo Fei, "Old Luo, why don't you hurry up and ask Mayor Chu to come over and discuss it? He has more ideas. Let's see what he can do."
Although Zhao Xiaolan hates Chu Heng, she has to admit that Chu Heng has his own merits.
Luo Fei shook his head and said, "What can he do at this time? Can he still influence Chen Zhenggang's decision?"
"Then what should we do now? Should we just sit back and wait for death?" Zhao Xiaolan said desperately.
"You go to bed first, I will be alone." Luo Fei walked to the sofa and sat down, took out a cigarette and lit it.
Seeing this, Zhao Xiaolan opened her mouth slightly, wanting to say something, but she didn't know what to say. How could she sleep at this time?
Husband and wife are originally like birds in the same forest, and they fly away when disaster strikes. Although Zhao Xiaolan and Luo Fei don't have much relationship as a couple, they are a close community of interests. If something happens to Luo Fei, she may not be able to escape in the end. If she can stay out of it, then She felt less worried now.
Knowing that Luo Fei was in a bad mood, Zhao Xiaolan didn't hesitate any more. At this time, she didn't know how to persuade Luo Fei, not to mention that she herself was in a mess.
Zhao Xiaolan was silent all night and fell asleep in the middle of the night. When she walked out of the bedroom in the morning, she found Luo Fei still sitting motionless on the sofa. The huge living room was filled with the pungent smell of cigarette smoke.
"Lao Luo, have you been sitting here all night?" Zhao Xiaolan walked over and asked.
Zhao Xiaolan's voice made Luo Fei suddenly come back to his senses. He turned his head and looked outside. Luo Fei murmured, "It's dawn, it's dawn so soon."
"Lao Luo, why don't you go to work today and take a rest at home." Zhao Xiaolan couldn't help but said when she saw Luo Fei's eyes were bloodshot and a little scary.
"Haha, how can I rest?" Luo Fei stood up and said to himself, "I have to go to work and fulfill my duties as the top leader of Jiangzhou City on the last day."
Luo Fei said, laughing self-deprecatingly, "By the way, let's have some fun and enjoy the taste of power. This may be the last time I can enjoy the power of a top leader."
"Lao Luo, have you decided?" Zhao Xiaolan said in a daze.
"Yes." Luo Fei nodded lightly, "Now I just hope to land safely, even if I have to retire from the second line early and work as a casualty."
"Maybe that would be the best outcome." Zhao Xiaolan murmured, but there was still something in her heart that she dared not say out. Maybe even this wish would be just a fantasy in the end.
