Xu Chunliang greeted: "Hello, Secretary Geng." They had been in contact at the Dongzhou Office in Beijing, and Mei Ruxue's next stop was also the High-tech Zone, where she served as Geng Wenjun's deputy, so Xu Chunliang was very polite to him.
Geng Wenjun said kindly: "Chunliang, are you looking for Secretary Zhou?" Anyone who sees Xu Chunliang sending the old lady and Mr. Zhou home will think that the relationship between them is unusual.
Xu Chunliang said: "I met them on the road and gave them a ride. I'm going back now. Are you driving? Do you want me to give you a ride?"
Geng Wenjun said: "The driver is waiting for me outside."
"I'll give you a ride." Xu Chunliang pointed to the Audi Q5. This car belongs to Zheng Pei'an. It's still a long way from here to the gate of the community.
"No, I want to go for a walk. I'll ask you to hang out some other time."
Xu Chunliang guessed that Geng Wenjun must have other matters, so he said goodbye to him.
On the way home, Zheng Pei'an called and asked where he was, but it was Xu Jiawen and his daughter who came back from Nanjiang and asked him to pick them up at the high-speed rail station.
Xu Chunliang asked about the bus time and simply went to the high-speed rail station to pick them up.
As the Spring Festival approaches, high-speed rail stations are full of people and cars everywhere. Considering the actual situation, the traffic police turn a blind eye to parking on the roadside, as long as you don't park your car in the middle of the road and obstruct traffic.
Xu Chunliang drove the car into the underground parking lot politely. Just when he was about to call his sister-in-law, Qin Zhengyang's call came in.
Although Xu Chunliang has known Qin Zhengyang for a long time, they have very few personal contacts, and their usual contact is about work. Seeing Qin Zhengyang's name on the screen, Xu Chunliang guessed that it was probably for his secondment.
Xu Chunliang answered the phone and said with a smile: "Secretary Qin, what do you want from me?"
Qin Zhengyang is the top leader of Hushan Town. I had to work under him in the past, so of course Xu Chunliang had to be polite.
"Xiao Xu, I just heard that you are coming to work in Hushan Town." Qin Zhengyang's words expressed two meanings. One is that he just knew about it, and the other is that this matter did not pass through him at all. When he knew about it, he had already
It’s a foregone conclusion.
"I just found out, and I was about to call you. Secretary Qin, you are my big brother. Please take care of me while I am studying."
Just after Mei Ruxue left, Xu Chunliang came over, and it was arranged by the city. What was the motive for such an arrangement? Was there any role for Mei Ruxue?
"Xiao Xu, since you come to work here, you are a member of our Hushan Town. You have to clarify your position first."
Xu Chunliang said: "Don't worry, I will represent the interests of the people of Hushan Town for one day in Hushan Town."
The phone call between the two basically made things clear. Qin Zhengyang asked him to go to work on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year with peace of mind and not to prepare anything. He would arrange everything here.
Qin Zhengyang's call lasted for more than ten minutes, during which Zhen Chun made five calls but no one came in.
Xu Chunliang ended the call with Qin Zhengyang, and Zhen Chun called again. This time she finally got through. She had a bad temper and screamed at the phone: "Cousin, which woman are you talking on the phone with again?"
Xu Chunliang took the phone further away: "Stop talking nonsense, where is it?"
Xu Chunliang parked the car next to his sister-in-law and her daughter, got out of the car and helped them get things. He couldn't help but said: "Hey, there are so many people. Sister-in-law, you didn't move things to Nanjiang, why did you bring so much back?"
Xu Jiawen smiled and said: "It's the Chinese New Year, so I'll prepare some New Year's goods and buy you some clothes."
Zhen Chun said: "It's really you. I couldn't get through the phone after calling for twenty minutes."
Xu Chunliang said: "It would be great if I could come and pick you up."
"What's your attitude? I'll let grandpa beat you when you go back."
"That's my grandpa. You, a little girl with a foreign surname, still want to incite internal strife in the Xu family?"
"Mom, he dislikes us."
Xu Jiawen didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You two, brother and sister, can't stop talking to each other as soon as you meet?"
Xu Chunliang's cell phone rang again, this time it was Mei Ruxue calling: "Xiaoxue, I'm picking someone up at the high-speed rail station."
Zhen Chun pointed at him: "What a hypocritical man. He is so cruel to me, but so gentle to others."
Xu Jiawen smiled and said: "Hurry up and get in the car, there is so much nonsense."
Xu Jiawen asked Xu Chunliang to sit in the passenger seat and she would drive.
Mei Ruxue made this call to tell Xu Chunliang that she was leaving for Nanjiang immediately and was expected to stay for a few more days. Qin Zhengyang also called her just now. Mei Ruxue noticed that Qin Zhengyang was a little nervous about Xu Chunliang going to Hushan Town to take up a post.
.
In Mei Ruxue's view, Qin Zhengyang was not necessary at all. Xu Chunliang was only on secondment, and even if he served as deputy mayor, he would not pose any threat to Qin Zhengyang.
Xu Chunliang told Mei Ruxue not to worry and just go to Nanjiang to celebrate the New Year with peace of mind. He could handle the affairs in Weishan Town well.
After hanging up the phone, Zhen Chun patted his shoulder from behind and showed him her cell phone. On it was the wonderful scene of Xu Chunliang hitting ten: "Is it you? Is it you?"
Xu Chunliang said: "Handsome, isn't he?"
Zhen Chun said to her mother: "Mommy, I just said he was my cousin, but you still said he wasn't."
In fact, Xu Jiawen had already confirmed this with Zheng Pei'an. He sighed softly and said, "Chunliang, you are now the director of the hospital. You should control your temper in the future and don't worry grandpa."
Xu Chunliang said: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, the matter has been resolved."
Zhen Chun put her head forward curiously: "Are you fighting for Gao Xiaobai?"
Xu Chunliang pressed her forehead with his backhand and pushed her back: "Gossip! Why don't you become a reporter if you love gossip so much?"
Zhen Chun said: "Yes, I am planning to change my studies to media. I want to be a host like Sister Su Qing."
Xu Chunliang said: "Take a good look in the mirror."
"Mom, my cousin said I'm ugly."
Xu Chunliang said: "I mean you can't even speak Mandarin well."
"I speak Cantonese well. I can stay and develop in Hong Kong."
"You have a problem with the young people there. How can you develop in a place as big as your palm? Are you going to go to heaven? There are more opportunities in the mainland."
Zhen Chun said: "I'm still used to the life in Xiangjiang."
Xu Jiawen said: "I really like it there. It would be good to stay in the Greater Bay Area for development."
Zhen Chun said: "I really envy Sister Su Qing for her beauty and talent."
Xu Chunliang smiled and said: "What kind of ecstasy soup did Su Qing pour into you? Why do you admire her so much now?"
"She didn't. She was very good to me, and I got along well with her. We contacted each other via WeChat almost every day. By the way, did you know that she resigned?"
Xu Chunliang was stunned for a moment. In fact, Su Qing had said it when she came to see him. At that time, he thought Su Qing was just talking out of anger, but he never expected that this would actually come true.
Zhen Chun said: "You don't know?"
Xu Chunliang said: "I heard her mention it, but I have too many things to do in the past two days and didn't bother to ask her."
"You really don't care about her. Sister Su Qing has resigned from Dongzhou TV Station. The station is making things difficult for her. She even paid a compensation for her resignation. Do you know the reason? You did a good job, why did you resign suddenly?
Already?"
Xu Chunliang shook his head, feeling a little moved in his heart. The reason that prompted Su Qing to resign was none other than himself. Because Dongzhou TV Station insisted on broadcasting negative news about him, Su Qing and the column team fell out.
He really didn't care enough about Su Qing, and even ignored her silent efforts.
##
Su Qing was sitting at home alone. The house had been cleaned up. Today was New Year's Eve and there was still no news about her father. Unconsciously, she had become accustomed to loneliness and tried to enjoy it.
After the resignation procedures were completed, she finally decided to work in Nanjiang. She originally wanted to stay away from here, but when she really made the decision, she hesitated. Her personality was soft on the outside but strong on the inside, but only when facing a person, her heart was full of softness.
Su Qing glanced at her phone. He rarely contacted her. In his mind, he probably just regarded her as an ordinary friend.
She was not the only woman who asked him to fight. A bitter smile appeared on Su Qing's lips, and she suddenly had the idea of leaving Dongzhou immediately.
Since you are destined to be lonely, then go to a stranger place to spend your own New Year.
Su Qing reached out and picked up the car keys. It was nice to be alone. She had no worries and could just leave.
At this time, the phone rang, but it was Zhen Chun who called: "Sister Su Qing, where are you?"
Su Qing couldn't help but laugh when she heard her deliberately added human voice: "Just getting ready to go out."
"My brother wants you to celebrate the New Year together."
Su Qing said: "No, I made an appointment with a friend."
"Impossible, aren't you alone?"
Su Qing said: "No, I made an appointment with a few friends to celebrate the New Year together and thank him for me."
After hanging up the phone, Su Qing raised her head and closed her eyes. Her nose was sore and her eyes were a little hot. Leave, some people and some things are destined not to belong to her.
She packed everything in the shortest possible time, picked up her suitcase, and walked out of the house.
When Su Qing struggled to put the suitcase into the car, a pair of hands stretched out to help her hold the suitcase and put it in easily.
Su Qing raised her head in surprise and blushed when she saw Xu Chunliang's sunny smiling face.
