"Yeah, where else can I go if I don't live at home?"
"Didn't you lie?"
"Minister Xu, do I need to lie about this?" Qiao Liang suddenly felt unhappy.
"So what happened this morning?"
Qiao Liang finally understood Xu Honggang's intention of calling him. It turned out to be this question.
However, Qiao Liang didn't want to understand too quickly in front of Xu Honggang and become confused: "What happened this morning?"
"Let me ask you, what did you do with Minister Ye in the park this morning?"
"Minister Xu, I don't understand what you mean."
"Okay, let me tell you, I just received a call from Minister Ye's father-in-law Ning Zixuan. He found you and Minister Ye digging in the bamboo forest in the park early in the morning. He also suspected that you took advantage of Ning Hailong's business trip to have sex with Minister Ye last night.
…”
Qiao Liang suddenly became angry. Damn it, this old guy is really hateful. He actually went to Xu Honggang to file a complaint and framed himself and Ye Xinyi.
Xu Honggang continued: "Ning Zixuan said that he said something about you, and you got angry and called him dirty and disrespectful. He was very angry and strongly demanded that I punish you and that Minister Ye should be adjusted in charge.
Take care of you."
Qiao Liang sneered: "Minister Xu, do you know why I scolded him?"
"Why?"
"Because he poured dirty water on me and Minister Ye, because he misunderstood the normal relationship between colleagues. The adulterer will see the adulterer."
Xu Honggang was startled. Damn, this guy said that prostitutes see prostitutes. Now he is doubting this. Could it be that he is implying that he is also a prostitute?
Qiao Liang continued: "As for him saying that Minister Ye and I went to the bamboo forest, that's pure nonsense. Minister Ye and I were walking and chatting, and accidentally passed through a bamboo forest, and happened to meet him, so he just made some random guesses.
.”
Xu Honggang was dubious. If it was really what Qiao Liang said, then why did Ning Zixuan say that? Why was he so embarrassed?
Thinking of what had happened to Ye Xinyi and Qiao Liang, Xu Honggang suddenly felt a strong sense of sadness in his heart, which made him a little jealous.
But thinking about what Ye Xinyi does in daily life and the relationship between Qiao Liang and Ye Xinyi, I think this is unlikely.
Could it be that they are really innocent and Ning Zixuan misunderstood?
After hanging up the phone with Qiao Liang, Xu Honggang called Ye Xinyi and asked about the matter.
Ye Xinyi was about to report to Xu Honggang what Zhang Mei was looking for for her, so she told him the truth.
Regarding what happened in the park, Ye Xinyi and Qiao Liang said roughly the same thing.
After listening to Ye Xinyi's words, Xu Honggang understood the whole story. Sure enough, it was Ning Zixuan who had committed adultery. It turned out that this kid had beaten Zhang Mei last night, and this matter was related to Fang Xiaoya.
Thinking that he had misunderstood Qiao Liang, Xu Honggang apologized a little and called Qiao Liang again.
"Okay, I just communicated with Minister Ye and it was all a misunderstanding."
"You won't punish me anymore? You won't doubt us anymore? You won't adjust Minister Ye's responsibilities anymore?"
"Punish the head, suspect the devil, adjust the shit."
Qiao Liang chuckled.
"But it's not right for you to hit your wife. I still have to criticize you."
"It happened for a reason. Zhang Mei got mad and scolded Fang Xiaoya. The scolding was very unpleasant, so I took action."
Xu Honggang felt something in his heart. This guy actually beat his wife for Fang Xiaoya. It seemed that Fang Xiaoya held a very important position in his heart.
"Xiao Qiao, let me remind you that it is very important to handle the relationship between family and career. You must not lose the big for the small. In the officialdom, there are many examples of people ruining their future because of a fire in the backyard. You must be cautious." Xu Honggang said meaningfully.
.
Qiao Liang understood what Xu Honggang meant and agreed.
Xu Honggang then said: "Tell me, why does Ning Zixuan suspect that you and Minister Ye have something to do with each other?"
Qiao Liang blurted out: "A prostitute sees prostitution. I suspect that he has improper thoughts towards Minister Ye."
"Don't talk nonsense." Xu Honggang subconsciously stopped Qiao Liang, but then his heart moved. Maybe what Qiao Liang said was not unreasonable.
At this time, in the corner of a cafe in the city, Fang Xiaoya and Zhang Mei were sitting face to face.
Fang Xiaoya asked Zhang Mei out.
"Fang Xiaoya, what do you want from me?" Zhang Mei stared at Fang Xiaoya.
"I want to talk to you." Fang Xiaoya said gently.
"What are you talking about?" Zhang Mei said bluntly.
"Let's talk about you and Qiao Liang."
Zhang Mei got angry when she heard this: "What does the matter between me and Qiao Liang have to do with you? You are really nosy like a dog."
Fang Xiaoya said tepidly: "Zhang Mei, tell me, do you and Qiao Liang have any feelings at all?"
Zhang Mei felt guilty, and then said harshly: "This is our business, why should I tell you this."
Fang Xiaoya chuckled: "If I guess correctly, you don't love Qiao Liang."
Zhang Mei felt even more guilty and was silent for a while.
Fang Xiaoya continued: "If you love him, why do you want to harm him?"
When Zhang Mei heard this, she became nervous and stammered: "How could I harm him? You are so slanderous."
Fang Xiaoya sneered: "You know this yourself."
Zhang Mei became even more nervous. She didn't know what Fang Xiaoya meant by her words or what she knew.
"Fang Xiaoya, what do you mean? Who told you? How did I hurt him?" Zhang Mei forced herself to calm down.
Looking at Zhang Mei's expression, Fang Xiaoya immediately understood that this woman must have deliberately told Chu Heng about Li Youwei's two gold bars.
Now that this has been verified, Fang Xiaoya will naturally not reveal that Qiao Liang knows about it.
"It's not obvious. Since you don't love Qiao Liang, but you don't separate from him, isn't this delaying his youth or harming him?"
Upon hearing Fang Xiaoya's words, Zhang Mei felt relieved. It turned out that she didn't know anything about this.
Zhang Mei suddenly felt confident: "Fang Xiaoya, whether I love Qiao Liang or not has nothing to do with you. Our marriage does not require you to make irresponsible remarks. You are not qualified."
Fang Xiaoya smiled: "Yes, I am not qualified, but from an outsider's perspective, this loveless marriage has been dragging on, not only harming Qiao Liang, but also harming you, right?"
Fang Xiaoya's words touched Zhang Mei's mind, and she was speechless.
Fang Xiaoya continued: "Actually, as a woman, I sympathize with you. After all, men become more popular as they get older, but women are different. Good times only last for a few years. Do you think it's worth it?"
"What do you mean by that?" Zhang Mei stared at Fang Xiaoya.
"I want to help you get out, but of course helping you is secondary. After all, we don't have a close relationship. I mainly do it for Qiao Liang. I don't want to see Qiao Liang suffer in this kind of loveless marriage." Fang Xiaoya said bluntly.
"What do you want to do?"
"As long as you are willing to leave Qiao Liang voluntarily, I will give you an unexpected surprise."
Zhang Mei understood what Fang Xiaoya meant, and her heart moved.
"As a smart woman, I think you will make the best choice for yourself and think about it carefully." Fang Xiaoya then left.
After Fang Xiaoya left, Zhang Mei fell into deep thought...
