Ma Yuanxiang said, "People's thoughts will change. I didn't want to leave at that time. How do you know that my current thoughts have not changed?"
Qiao Liang smiled, "Women are the most fickle, but they are also the most nostalgic. You were reluctant to let go of everything in Liangbei before. After almost two years, how can you be willing to let go?"
The smile on Ma Yuanxiang's face was a little wider, "You know yourself better than I do."
Qiao Liang continued to eat noodles and glanced at Ma Yuanxiang's face, "How have you been in the past two years? Have you fallen in love with someone?"
Ma Yuanxiang was stunned for a moment, as if she didn't expect Qiao Liang to ask this, and there was a vague unnatural look on her face.
Seeing Ma Yuanxiang's reaction, Qiao Liang realized something in his heart and said, "You are single now and you are beautiful. I am afraid there are many people pursuing you. Is there anyone who makes your heart beat?"
Ma Yuanxiang nodded and did not hide anything from Qiao Liang, "There is indeed a man I like very much."
Qiao Liang smiled and said, "Are you sure about the relationship?"
Ma Yuanxiang shook his head and said, "Not that fast, I just have a good impression, and I am also a little hesitant."
Qiao Liang smiled and said, "If it's what you like, then why should you hesitate?"
Ma Yuanxiang said, "The other person is five or six years younger than me, and has not been married yet. I am worried that someone like me, who has been married once, will be laughed at if I get together with him, and his parents may not be willing to do it. ."
Qiao Liang disagreed, "You think too much. What age are you now? You have such old-fashioned ideas. The ancients even said that female juniors hold gold bricks."
Ma Yuanxiang sighed, "Marriage is not just a matter for two people, it is also a matter for two families. How can we not think more about it? At my age, I don't have the energy to have another vigorous love. If I am really sure now If you want to find a partner, you all want to go straight to get married."
Qiao Liang didn't know what to say. Everyone had their own ideas. He was in a complete mess emotionally and was really not qualified to give any advice to others.
The two were silent for a moment, and Ma Yuanxiang suddenly laughed and said, "It feels weird for us to talk about this topic."
Qiao Liang smiled. The past relationship between the two made it really strange for them to discuss this topic.
Ma Yuanxiang looked at Qiao Liang and asked, "How many days will you stay this time?"
Qiao Liang smiled and said, "How can we stay for a few days? Let's take a look tonight. Maybe we can stay for a while and then return to Jincheng directly. We have to leave tomorrow morning at the latest."
Ma Yuanxiang was slightly disappointed, but quickly returned to normal, smiling and saying, "You are really too busy as leaders. I wouldn't like this busy life. I like a comfortable, slow-paced life."
Qiao Liang smiled and said, "I can tell, so you are really suitable to be a teacher."
The two chatted casually. After Qiao Liang finished a bowl of noodles, Ma Yuanxiang asked, "Are you full? Do you want me to cook something else for you?"
Qiao Liang smiled and waved his hands, "I'm full. I'm not a pig. How can I eat so much?"
Ma Yuanxiang took the bowl into the kitchen and washed it, and the two of them went to sit in the living room. There was no idea what TV show was playing on the TV, and neither of them went to watch it carefully. It was already past nine o'clock, and the atmosphere was slowly getting better. Unable to explain the unknown smell, Ma Yuanxiang looked at the time and said, "It takes several hours to drive from Liangbei to Jincheng. You will be in a hurry if you go back at night. How about you rest in Liangbei tonight and go back tomorrow? , otherwise it would be too unsafe to drive at night.”
Qiao Liang nodded and said, "Find a hotel to stay at tonight and get up early tomorrow and rush back."
Ma Yuanxiang blurted out without thinking, "You can live directly with me."
Ma Yuanxiang's face turned red when she said these words. The connection between her and Qiao Liang over the past year has gradually faded. Firstly, the distance in space has diluted the emotions between the two parties. Secondly, the many people around her in the past two years have gradually faded away.
There is indeed a suitor that makes Ma Yuanxiang's heart. Just as Ma Yuanxiang confessed to Qiao Liang that she has a crush on a suitor. Although the two have not confirmed their relationship, Ma Yuanxiang is indeed attracted. Now her worries are nothing more than two sides.
Family factors prevented Ma Yuanxiang from making up his mind.
At this moment, Ma Yuanxiang was blushing from her cheeks to her ears. If Qiao Liang stayed the night and wanted to have sex with her, could she refuse? Although she was not a conservative and old-fashioned woman, she was not a casual woman either. Now she has
When she was asked to have a relationship with Qiao Liang when there was a man she was attracted to, Ma Yuanxiang always felt that it was a bit difficult to cope with this psychologically.
Looking up at Qiao Liang, Ma Yuanxiang blushed and said, "I have two rooms here. The other room is cleaned frequently. It's very clean and can be lived in."
Qiao Liang smiled and said, "You already have a sweetheart. It's not appropriate for me to spend the night at your place."
Ma Yuanxiang lowered her head and finally said nothing.
The two were chatting softly. At this time, they were far away in Jincheng. Qiao Liang's secretary Yu Jianghe was lying on the bed after washing up and playing with his mobile phone. Qiao Liang went to Liangbei alone tonight. As a secretary, he also had some leisure time.
Nothing happened, he went out for a walk, but he was not familiar with the place, and it was not interesting for a grown man to go alone. Yu Jianghe came back soon, and it was more comfortable to lie on the bed and check his mobile phone.
In fact, there are also lesbians in the team from the county that came to the Northwest for investment inspection this time. One of the deputy section chiefs of the county investment bureau is very beautiful. He is only two or three years older than him. Yu Jianghe can feel that the other party is frequently treating him.
With secret glances, when he was going out for a walk in the evening, he bumped into the other person in the corridor outside the room. As soon as the other person heard that he was going out for a walk, he intentionally or unintentionally said that he wanted to accompany him, but Yu Jianghe declined politely. Although he is single now, his vision is different.
It's so tall that women in the county can't really catch his eye.
Yu Jianghe thought that even if he was looking for a partner, the last thing he would look for was the children of district-level cadres who were in major leadership positions in the city, and they had to be promising to go further, so that they could provide him with strong support in the future.
As for the help from the county, he didn't like it at all.
After watching the news for a while, Yu Jianghe started to play a game. This was a game he had played when he was in college. Even though he is now the leader's secretary, he has only graduated two or three years ago, and his hobbies are the same as those of today's young people.
After work, I like to play games to relieve stress.
The game was reaching a critical point when the phone rang suddenly. Yu Jianghe almost couldn't help cursing, "Damn it, I didn't call you sooner or later, but now the call came in."
The next moment, when Yu Jianghe saw the caller ID, his brows jumped, it was Guo Xingan calling!
Regardless of whether this was a game played online with others, Yu Jianghe quickly picked up the phone and said respectfully, "Secretary Guo."
On the other end of the phone, Guo Xing'an asked with a smile, "Xiao Yu, have you had a rest?"
Yu Jianghe said hurriedly, "Not yet, it's still a bit early."
Guo Xing'an laughed when he heard this, "You young people are all accustomed to being night cats and like to stay up late."
Yu Jianghe smiled and said, "It's not that bad. If nothing happens, I'm still used to going to bed before 12 o'clock."
Guo Xing'an nodded and asked seemingly casually, "Did your investment trip go smoothly? Where is Qiao Liang, what is he doing now?"
Yu Jianghe replied, "Secretary Guo, Secretary Qiao went to Liangbei. He said he wanted to go back to Liangbei for a walk and drove there in the evening."
Guo Xing'an was a little surprised, "He drove by himself and didn't take you with him?"
Yujiang Hedao, "Secretary Qiao said he can just drive there by himself and be back by tomorrow morning at the latest."
Guo Xing'an didn't say anything. He remembered that Qiao Liang had worked in Liangbei before. It seemed that the other party wanted to visit his hometown in Liangbei.
Yu Jianghe heard that Guo Xing'an had lost his voice and asked proactively, "Secretary Guo, do you have something to do with Secretary Qiao?"
Guo Xing'an came back to his senses and said with a smile, "It's nothing, you can go to bed early."
After Guo Xingan finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
Yu Jianghe was slightly stunned as he held the phone. He didn't know if it was his imagination. He felt that Guo Xing'an called him tonight and seemed to have something to say, but he didn't say it in the end.
Why?
Yu Jianghe's intuition was right. Guo Xing'an called him just now and indeed had something to tell him. However, Guo Xing'an hesitated at the last moment and hung up the phone.
At this moment, Guo Xing'an is in his own residence. This is a high-end residential complex that he asked his secretary to find. As for the place arranged by the city, he is not used to living there at all.
Guo Xing stood quietly in front of the window, weighing a cigarette in his hand. He obviously had no intention of smoking at this moment.
Looking at the night outside the window, Guo Xing'an's eyes drifted into the distance, his face changing uncertainly. He was very irritable. Duan Jue's words seemed to echo in his ears during the day. Guo Xing'an finally postponed it temporarily on the grounds that he had to think about it. But he knew very well that Duan Jue would definitely come looking for him again.
"This bastard, you unknowingly dug a hole for me." Guo Xing'an couldn't help cursing Duan Jue. Although he knew that he had not withstood the temptation, he still blamed Duan Jue for the problem.
Despite the scolding, Guo Xing'an could only accept the fact that the two of them were now completely in the same boat.
The figure of Yu Jianghe flashed in his mind, and Guo Xing'an showed a hesitant look on his face again. He originally arranged for Yu Jianghe to be Qiao Liang's secretary. On the surface, he was helping Qiao Liang choose an excellent secretary, but in fact, he was secretly monitoring Qiao Liang. The purpose is there, but Guo Xingan will not use Yu Jianghe as a chess piece unless absolutely necessary, because once it is used, it means that the relationship between him and Qiao Liang may be completely deadlocked. For Guo Xingan personally, He didn't want to see that happen. After all, Qiao Liang was deeply appreciated by Zheng Guohong, and he was Zheng Guohong's man. What was the point of him plotting against Qiao Liang? How would Zheng Guohong view him then?
But Guo Xing'an also knows very well that it is precisely because he is Zheng Guohong's person that Duan Jue wants him to come forward to mess with Qiao Liang, because Duan Jue is jealous and even afraid of Zheng Guohong, and he is Zheng Guohong's person and Guanzhou The city's top leader, in Duan Jue's opinion, it was most appropriate for him to take the initiative to do this.
