I did feel a little strange in my heart, and I found that her face was already red at this time.
"Why?" I asked looking at her in surprise.
She said: "I have one more thing to do when I come to Beijing this time."
It must be a very important matter, and it should be a private matter. It cannot be a business matter. If it is a business matter, Director Leng can handle it here. And is there such an urgent business matter? I thought to myself.
But I think I should remind her, "Director Ruan, I think you should accompany Governor He back unless it is absolutely necessary. After all, she is our leader in charge and has the absolute say in your and my future. Even if it is absolutely necessary, you should accompany Governor He back.
If you have something urgent, then you should find a good reason to explain it clearly to her. I have no problem here, I can definitely ask Director Shang to accompany her back. But the problem is not here, do you understand what I mean?"
She said: "Director Feng, please tell me. I can't find a reason to tell Governor He."
I immediately understood: it must be a private matter. I said: "I'll tell you that it's okay, but you have to think clearly. Director Ruan, I can give you an idea."
She said hurriedly: "Just tell me."
I said: "You can go back with Governor He first, and then take a flight to Beijing this afternoon or evening. The air ticket only costs more than 3,000 yuan, which shouldn't be nothing to you, right? Director Ruan,
Don’t lose big at the expense of small things. What do you think?”
She thought for a while and said, "Okay. That's a good idea."
I smiled at her and then returned to the dining table. Director Leng said to me: "Don't disturb me in the past two days. Since Governor He has gone back, I will go back next Monday to connect with Peking University and Tsinghua University."
I know I can't rush such a thing, not to mention that the affairs of these two schools have basically been settled now. But I suddenly remembered something, "Director Leng, things at Tsinghua University are very easy to handle. The maximum quota for one place is 100,000.
What about Peking University? The conditions at Principal Xiang’s place may not be low.”
Director Leng said: "Let's treat it equally. Minister Dou has already come forward on this matter. Principal Xiang shouldn't go too far. I'll just go and tell him."
When I thought about the relationship between him and Principal Xiang, I felt relieved.
Director Leng left. I think his attitude towards me is much better now, maybe because the medicine I bought for him made him think it was effective.
The old director and Shanglongxing and I were sitting there chatting, and I also took the opportunity to eat more.
The old director asked me: "How are you? You don't feel uncomfortable now, do you? Things are finally done. You should be in a good mood, right? I see that you have eaten a lot for breakfast, which means that you have basically sobered up after drinking last night.
Already."
I smiled bitterly and said, "Now I still feel pain all over my body."
Shanglongxing asked me: "Did you fall somewhere else last night? Do you want to go to the hospital again? I was going to let you stay in the hospital for one night last night, but you were too dirty, and the doctor
I also said that your problem is not serious, so we brought you back to the hotel."
I said, "Thank you. I'm ashamed. I guess it's because there's still alcohol left in my body. I did drink too much yesterday and hurt my body. It's okay. I'll just buy some medicine later."
She said: "What medicine should you buy? I will buy it for you now. I have taken it."
She really cared about me, and I felt that I should not brush off her kindness. So I said: "Jiuwei Qianghuo Pills. This is the only medicine. This is a Chinese patent medicine, specially designed for body aches."
The old director said: "You should only use this medicine if your whole body is sore after a heat cold, right?"
I nodded, "Yes. The effect is very good."
Shang Longxing stood up immediately and said, "I'll buy it for you."
I thanked her again. After she left, the old director asked me: "What does Ruan Jie want from you? Haha! I don't mean anything else. I just want to remind you that you'd better stay away from this woman."
I was suddenly a little surprised, "Old director, she came to me to talk about work. By the way, how do you evaluate her like this?"
He smiled faintly and said: "I have been in the Provincial Education Commission system for so many years, but I still don't know the people in it?"
I thought thoughtfully, then nodded and said: "That's true. Old director, can you tell me? What kind of person is she? Why do you want to warn me like this? Haha! Of course I know you are doing it for my own good.
, but I feel a little strange."
The old director sighed: "Director Feng, you are already a deputy department cadre at such a young age, and I found that your thinking is very advanced and your work ability is also very strong. The most commendable thing is that you are also very enthusiastic about work.
And you are not selfish. So I am very optimistic about your future. Although we have not been in contact for a long time, I think you have a very good character. These are your advantages, but after all, you are young and currently single.
So I am very worried that you will make mistakes in your lifestyle. As the saying goes, beauty is a curse. Although some women are beautiful, they are also trouble-making monsters. Xiao Feng, my words can only go so far, so you can take care of yourself."
I understood a little bit, but I never thought that the old director would misunderstand that I have such a relationship with Ruan Jie. I suddenly thought that maybe the old director saw Ruan Jie’s blush when she came to me to tell me about it. I sincerely
He said to the old director: "I have nothing to do with her? Old director, I didn't lie to you."
He glanced at me and then said: "That's good. But many men can't resist the temptation of beautiful women. To be honest, as a man, who doesn't have a few confidantes? The key to the problem is that there are some who cannot be messed with.
Don’t mess with women who are young.”
I immediately laughed and said, "Old director, so you have a lot of confidantes, right? You have to tell the truth."
He also laughed and pointed at me with his index finger, "Why are you making such a joke with an old man like me? Xiao Feng, don't tell me, I find that I like you very much, but it's a pity that I don't have a daughter.
Otherwise, I really want to recruit you as my son-in-law."
I hurriedly said: "Don't... If you do that, I will definitely be scolded to death by you. Haha! Old director, to be honest, I quite like you too. We are really destined. Old director, this is called
Let’s make friends for the New Year, right?”
He smiled and said: "Yeah. It's a pity that you don't drink much on weekdays, and you don't like fishing. But it's good, so you don't lose your mind by playing with things and not doing your job like me."
I smiled and said: "Then I will drink more wine and fish with you when I have time in the future. I will also take the opportunity to inquire about your past romantic affairs. I also have to learn from you in this aspect. Learning is the way."
He pointed at me again, "You guys, don't make such jokes with me, an old man. Haha!"
I laugh too. Now, I feel that the relationship between us has become one step closer. It can be said that it is already intimate.
The old director looked at me strangely and asked me: "If you could only choose one type of woman among the three types of women: wife, lover, and confidante, which one would you most want?"
I was immediately stunned, "What is your problem?"
He smiled and said: "It's hard for you to choose, isn't it? Then let me ask you again, what do you think a wife is? What are a lover and a confidante?"
I didn’t even know how to answer, so I said, “Such a question should only be understood but not explained, right?”
He shook his head and said: "No, let me tell you. A wife is a woman you are willing to entrust your savings to for safekeeping. A lover is a woman you date secretly and are afraid that your wife will catch you. A confidante is a woman you can tell some secrets to.
A woman who listens but cannot tell her wife."
I smiled and said, "It seems like this is really what happened."
The old director immediately said: "A wife is a constraint, restricting you from dating other women casually; a lover is a compensation, compensating for the passion you want from your wife but cannot get; a confidante is a kind of encouragement,
Clear up the puzzle in your heart. A wife possesses a man, a lover shares a man, and a confidante shapes a man. Your wife accompanies you to live your life; your lover accompanies you to spend money; your confidante accompanies you to chat. A wife cannot replace a lover, because no lover has the emotional appeal.
"A lover cannot replace a wife, because she does not have the affection of a wife; neither a wife nor a lover can replace a confidante, because that is the need of the soul." (To be continued)
