I had to put on that white suit because all my clothes were at Zhao Menglei and I's house. I felt very awkward all over.
"It's great to be young." Lin Yi looked at me and sighed.
Shi Yanni was also looking at me and smiling with satisfaction.
The dinner was held at a five-star hotel in this city. Chen Yuan, Lin Yi, and Shi Yanni and I sat in the two extended Lincolns. I was very nervous because I was worried that Lin Yi would make the scene too big on his own.
.Fortunately not.
This is a large private room with two large tables, but each table can seat more than ten people.
After we entered, we found that there were quite a few people inside, about a dozen or so, both men and women, most of them middle-aged. After we entered, those people stood up and greeted Lin Yi, "Mr. Lin, what's the happy event today?"
Huh? Who are these two young men?"
"I'll tell you together when everyone is here soon," Lin Yi said with a smile. Shi Yanni immediately went to chat affectionately with the middle-aged women.
Lin Yi took Chen Yuan and I to the sofa in the corner and sat down, "You guys have a rest for a while. I'll call you when Director Lin is here."
I guess Lin Yu didn't know the theme of today's dinner, otherwise she should have called me. At this moment, I suddenly remembered something - Lin Yu and I seemed to have not been in contact for a long time. People came in one after another.
, Lin Yu arrived at about half past six.
"Mr. Lin, what are you doing? Why are you so mysterious? Oh! There are so many people." Lin Yu said to Lin Yi as soon as he came in.
"Feng Xiao, come on, your sister Lin is here." Lin Yi turned around and called me.
I quickly stood up and walked towards Lin Yu, Chen Yuan followed me.
"Sister Lin." I nodded towards her.
She looked at me in surprise, then looked at Chen Yuan, "Feng Xiao, why are you dressed like this today? You look like a groom."
"Haha! He is the groom today. Today is the day when he and my daughter get married. I'm sorry, Director Lin, I didn't tell you about this in advance." Lin Yi said with a smile.
Lin Yu's expression became even more surprised. She glanced at Chen Yuan, then asked Lin Yida with a smile: "Boss Lin, don't say that Xiao Chen is your daughter."
"Director Lin, she is my long-lost daughter. I finally found her." At this time, Shi Yanni came over and said, her eyes already moist.
Lin Yu opened his mouth wide, "Ah, what a coincidence. It's great. I have to toast you two more glasses of wine today to congratulate you."
There were many people in the room, and most of them were talking to each other and did not notice our conversation.
"Thank you." Lin Yi said, and then said to Shi Yanni, "Go and help me receive the new guests. I'll talk to Director Lin."
"No, you go and do your work. I just want to talk to Dr. Feng about something." Lin Yu said, and then said to me: "Feng Xiao, come out for a moment and I will ask you something."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and left the private room. I hurriedly said to Chen Yuan, "Wait for me here," and then followed Lin Yu out.
Lin Yu kept walking toward the outside of the corridor, and I quickly followed. She didn't say anything to me, and continued walking forward until she reached the entrance, then turned right and went to the terrace outside.
She stood on the terrace and looked at the city in the distance.
I walked towards her, "Sister..."
"Feng Xiao, why didn't you tell me?" She still didn't come to see me, but was still looking at the city's bright night. Her voice was as calm as water and a little cool, just like the air here.
"Sister, it's what happened in the past two days. I didn't have time to tell you. And..." I said, feeling uneasy inside.
"And what?" she continued with her back to me.
"And all this today was arranged by Lin Yi. I can't help it. Xiao Chen has my child." I said in a low voice.
"Oh? That's it. So you have divorced your wife?" she asked, turning around.
"Yes." I replied in a low voice, not daring to look at her. I had said many times in front of her that I would not divorce Zhao Menglei. Now, she would definitely think that I was fake and hypocritical.
"You men..." she sighed, and asked me after a while: "Feng Xiao, is Chen Yuan really Lin Yi's daughter? Please tell me briefly what happened."
So I spoke.
"So that's it." She said thoughtfully, and then gave me a bright smile, "Congratulations. This boss Lin is not a simple person. He killed two birds with one stone by inviting me to come today. It's interesting."
"Sister, I don't understand what you are saying." I said. I really don't understand how Lin Yi managed to kill two birds with one stone today.
"Obviously, he knows about your relationship with me, so he wants to take the opportunity to win over his friendship with me. In addition, he is also reminding me that you, Feng Xiao, are his son-in-law, so that I can keep a certain distance from you in the future. Also, he is reminding me that you, Feng Xiao, are his son-in-law.
, Haha! There are some things that I won’t tell you clearly. That’s okay, I want to see what tricks he will play in the future. By the way, let’s go in. It seems that there are people with a higher level than me coming today.
." She smiled faintly.
I was very surprised, "Sister, why did you say that?"
"I took a look when I went in just now. Most of them were businessmen from the province. But when I entered, he didn't announce that the dinner was about to start. So, I think there should be people with higher rankings than me coming," she replied.
.
I couldn't help but sigh: She is also a smart person. Why didn't I think of this? Suddenly, I thought of someone, "Sister. I think it might be him."
"Who?" she asked me.
"Duanmuxiong. Not long ago, Boss Lin asked me to have a meal with him." I said.
She was startled, and then asked me: "Why didn't you tell me this?"
"Sister, I thought about the kind of relationship he had with you, so..." I answered hastily, secretly blaming myself for talking too much.
"Come on, let's go in. Today's things are getting more and more interesting. I want to see what Lin Yi is going to do." She said, and then walked past me.
I looked at her back in astonishment and hurriedly followed her, "Sister, you..."
She walked slowly in front of me, "You're wondering why I didn't leave immediately, right? But why should I leave? Even if Duan Muxiong really came, he should be the one who left. Hehe! Now I still have
I’m really curious.”
What I didn't expect was that I ran into Duan Muxiong at the door of the private room. He seemed to have just arrived. He was also startled when he saw Lin Yu, and the expression on his face immediately softened.
"Are you here?" Of course he asked Lin Yu.
"I heard that you have been campaigning for the position of secretary of the municipal party committee in your area recently. Is this happening?" Lin Yu asked.
I felt that I was not doing well here, so I hurriedly said to Lin Yu: "Sister Lin, I will go in first." Then I said to Duanmu Xiong: "Hello, Commissioner Duanmu."
"You are right here." Lin Yu said to me. I was very embarrassed, so I looked at Duanmuxiong again. He smiled at me, "It's okay. Let's talk casually."
"I'm asking you something." Lin Yu said to Duan Muxiong.
"With this incident, this is my chance." Duan Muxiong replied.
"You just became a commissioner, how could you be promoted right away? Although the secretary of the prefectural committee is at the same level, the value is very different. Have you ever thought about whether this is possible?" Lin Yu said.
"It's possible. Now that I have been included in the investigation, I just need a leader who can speak well to say hello to the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee." Duanmuxiong said.
Lin Yu shook his head, "Duanmuxiong, you are already this old, why are you still so naive? Have you ever thought that the position of secretary of the prefectural party committee can be decided by the organization department of the provincial party committee? As for the secretary of the provincial party committee, the main provincial
Only the Standing Committee of the CPC Committee has the decision-making power.”
"For example, Governor Huang...Lin Yu, I wanted to come to you many times, but I didn't dare." He said.
I felt that I really couldn't be here anymore, so I went directly into the private room. They didn't stop me this time.
"Are they outside?" Lin Yi pointed to the door and asked me in a low voice.
I nodded, "Just outside the door. Mr. Lin, what do you mean? Why did you call them both here at the same time?"
"Feng Xiao, to be honest, I really hope that the two of them can get back together. Don't you think they both need such an opportunity?" He asked me back.
"Aren't you afraid that they will be angry? You are acting on your own initiative. How many leaders would not resent being arranged like this by you?" I said.
He smiled faintly, "I only know one sentence, 'One day a couple, a hundred days' grace.' The two of them should still have some feelings. In the past, they hurt each other, but it was actually because of the existing feelings. Feng Xiao, please be careful.
Just think about it. Now, not to mention whether they have the possibility of getting back together, even if they need each other politically, they should stay together. Even if they are not a couple, they still need each other politically."
I shook my head, "You are all too complicated. I get a headache after listening to it."
"Then you go and accompany Xiaonan. She is talking to her mother over there now. You went out just now, and she was alone there and was at a loss. Fortunately, she has a mother now." He said to me with a smile.
I immediately walked towards Chen Yuan. I saw Shi Yanni talking to Chen Yuan there, and Chen Yuan was listening with her head down, nodding from time to time.
"What are you talking about?" I walked over and asked pretending to be relaxed.
"We, mother and daughter, were talking quietly." Shi Yanni smiled, and then came to ask me: "Feng Xiao, what did Director Lin ask you about? Did she ask you about Xiao Nan?"
"I asked. I just asked casually, and she was a little strange. Aunt Shi, I don't think you should call her and Commissioner Duanmu together. How embarrassing is this for them?" I said, trying to find out Lin Yigeng from her.
Lots of ideas.
She smiled faintly and said: "This matter was decided by him. I didn't know it beforehand. However, let me ask you, you should have seen Commissioner Duanmu outside just now, right? Was he embarrassed after meeting Director Lin?
