"No, Miss Qin can call me if she comes out. I'll wait in the parking lot."
"No, don't bother. Driver, please go back. We will have a car to go back to you later." Qin Lan refused quickly. She was not a wealthy lady, and she asked the driver to wait here. When she went in to eat, she only needed a moment.
Just thinking about it makes her unable to eat with peace of mind.
"It's okay. Our young master said that we are here to serve you these days. You can call us anytime if you need us."
"It's really no need, driver, please go back."
At Qin Lan's strong request, the driver of the Mo family finally nodded and drove away, heading back to the hotel.
"Ban Xuning, are all your classmates here?" Qin Lan looked at a courtyard not far away and asked with some confusion. Because, on the door of this courtyard was the sign of the Beijing Office of a certain prefecture-level city.
"Yes, they are right here. I'll call and ask."
Yes, it was Qin Lan and Ban Xuning who got off the car. Qin Lan and Ban Xuning did not stay at the hotel for dinner, because Ban Xuning had made an appointment with his college classmates to get together tonight.
So the two of them dropped off their luggage at the hotel, took a shower, and then asked the driver to take them here.
Not long after Ban Xuning hung up the phone, two men walked out of the door of the courtyard. One of them saw Ban Xuning and shouted in a loud voice: "Xuning, you kid didn't know you were coming back. I thought you were here."
I want to live my whole life in the mountains."
Another man looked at Qin Lan for a while, with a meaningful smile on his face, "I wonder why Xu Ning is willing to stay in the mountain? It turns out that he is accompanied by a beautiful woman, tsk tsk... Xu Ning, don't give it to us
Can you introduce this beauty?"
"This was while I was teaching together. Of course, now I am also my girlfriend Qin Lan. Qin Lan, these are my college roommates Bi Menghui and Shao Yiping."
"Hello, brothers and sisters." Bi Menghui and Shao Yiping shouted at the same time.
Qin Lan blushed, but she knew that she wanted to give the man face at this time, so she just replied shyly: "Brother Bi, how are you, Brother Shao?"
"Okay, stop standing at the door. Let's all go in and sit down. Song Shiwei will be here soon," Bi Menghui said.
So, a few people walked into the courtyard. As soon as they entered the courtyard, Qin Lan's eyes lit up. There was something special inside this courtyard.
When you look at it from the outside, you don't feel much, but once you come in, the retro decoration inside and the waiters in palace clothes instantly raise the level of this courtyard house.
"Don't underestimate this courtyard. This is a reception place in XX City. Outsiders are not qualified to eat and spend here. I also came here last time with the leaders of the ministries and commissions, and the boss gave me a business card.
, this is what makes you qualified." Bi Menghui saw the surprised expressions on Ban Xuning and Qin Lan's faces, a glint of pride flashed in his eyes, and then he explained.
"Xu Ning, Menghui has been doing very well recently and is already a regular in their company." Shao Yiping said from the side.
"Yiping, you're not bad, okay? I've heard that your director appreciates you very much, so I should mention it after the new year."
"It's something that hasn't been confirmed yet. With so many people competing, who knows if I'll have a chance? After all, I'm rootless here and there are too many variables." Shao Yiping shook his head, but from the expression on his face
Judging from the smile, you can be sure that this matter is probably certain.
After a few people entered the box, most of them were Bi Menghui and Ban Xuning talking about the past college events, while Qin Lan just listened quietly. However, there were only so many things about college, and it was inevitable that they would talk about graduation in the end.
Things to do later.
"Xu Ning, I'm not talking about you. Many people teach so that they can be admitted first to public institutions in the future. It's better for you to go to teach after you have already passed the interview in public institutions. With the current national conditions, even if you return to the institution, you may not be able to do so.
What good position has been arranged for you?" Shao Yiping sighed.
"Yes, I remember Xu Ning, you first entered the State Administration of Taxation. This is a good unit. When you were admitted, you were envious of many classmates in our class." Zhang Menghui also followed up, "In this way, one day
After Song Shiwei comes over, Xu Ning, you can mention to Song Shiwei that she is a local and is currently working as a deputy director at the China Banking Regulatory Commission. Hey, she is a deputy director under thirty years old. And I heard that her uncle is someone from the State Administration of Taxation.
Director."
"Forget it, working anywhere is not work anyway. If it doesn't work, I will go back to my hometown." Ban Xuning smiled. He didn't care much about the work of the State Administration of Taxation, otherwise he wouldn't have done it when everyone was opposed to it.
Resolutely decided to teach.
"Xu Ning, you are stupid. What kind of position do you hold back home? You will probably have to wait until you are deputy director until you are old, but here, you can get a good salary in just ten years." Shao Yiping hurriedly said
Advise.
"Yes, and if you are in the capital, your family will also be taken care of by the local government. Even if we are junior officials, when we return home during the Chinese New Year, the county magistrate and deputy magistrates will come to treat us to dinner." Zhang Menghui agreed.
Qin Lan, who was sitting aside and listening quietly, twitched her cheeks slightly when she heard Zhang Menghui's words, as if she wanted to laugh but was holding back her laughter. Fortunately, Zhang Menghui didn't notice her expression while the three of them were chatting.
change.
The reason why Qin Lan's expression changed like this was because she thought of a joke she saw on the Internet a few days ago, which said: "In a few days, Linda, Mary, and Vivian will be in the office building in Shanghai."
,e,Michael and Justin squeezed onto the train and returned to Liaoning, Fujian, Henan, Guangxi, Hubei, Hunan, and Sichuan one after another.
..The names became Xiaoqiang, Guifang, Cuihua, Xiulan, Dabing, Erbian, Goudan..."
"At the same time, Xiao Li, Xiao Zhang, Xiao Wang, Xiao Zhao and Xiao Qian in the cubicles of major ministries and commissions in the capital crowded onto the train and returned to their hometowns one after another. Their names became Li Chu, Zhang Chu, Wang Chu and Zhao.
At…”
At that time, Qin Lan just smiled knowingly when she saw this paragraph, but now after hearing Zhang Menghui's words and thinking about this paragraph, Qin Lan really couldn't hold it in anymore. Sure enough, jokes all come from life.
While Qin Lan was holding back her laughter, Zhang Menghui's cell phone rang. After looking at the number, Zhang Menghui stood up from his seat before answering the phone, "Hey, it's Shiwei, you're here, okay.
We'll come out to pick you up now."
When Zhang Menghui said the word Shiwei, Shao Yiping stood up from his seat. After Zhang Menghui hung up the phone, he said, "Xu Ning, let's go out too, Shiwei is here."
"Okay." Ban Xuning looked at his two roommates and suddenly felt a little strange. It seemed that some kind of change had occurred in them.
"Song Shiwei is also our classmate." Zhang Xuning followed Qin Lan and explained the relationship between Song Shiwei and them, and then led Qin Lan out of the box.
At the door of the courtyard, a woman wearing high boots and a fur-collared coat was standing at the door. When she saw Zhang Menghui and Shao Yiping, a smile appeared on her face, and when she saw Ban who walked out later.
Xu Ningshi's eyes lit up.
However, when the woman saw Qin Lan following behind Ban Xuning, her brows furrowed slightly. Of course, it was only for that moment, and her smile soon returned.
However, even if it was only for a moment, Qin Lan still caught her, and a woman's intuition told Qin Lan that Song Shiwei had some thoughts about her boyfriend.
"Shiwei, I'm just waiting for you. We haven't gotten together for a long time." Zhang Menghui walked up to her with a smile and said.
"Yeah, if Xu Ning hadn't come to the capital today, I guess Shi Wei wouldn't have come either. Shi Wei, you can't favor one over the other. Xu Ning is your classmate, and so are we." Shao Yiping said jokingly.
"You two are both in the capital. There are plenty of opportunities for us to get together. Moreover, there were too many things to do at the end of the year. Xu Ning has disappeared for more than two years." Song Shiwei looked at Ban Xu Ning and opened her mouth.
He raised his arms and walked towards Ban Xuning, "Old classmate, I haven't seen you in two years."
Facing Song Shiwei's open arms, Ban Xuning stretched out his right hand. Song Shiwei was stunned when she saw this, and then she could only retract her arms and extend her hand to shake hands with Ban Xuning.
"Old classmate, who is this?"
"The colleague who teaches with me, of course, is now my girlfriend Qin Lan." Ban Xuning introduced with a smile.
Hearing this, Song Shiwei raised her eyebrows. After looking at Qin Lan carefully for a few times, she raised the corners of her mouth slightly and stretched out her hand towards Qin Lan, "Hello, Miss Qin."
"Hello, Miss Song." The two women shook hands with strange smiles on their faces, and the atmosphere at the scene seemed to have become a little weird.
"Come on, everyone, let's go in. It's cold outside." Zhang Menghui saw something was wrong in the atmosphere and greeted quickly.
In fact, Zhang Menghui and Shao Yiping didn't know that Ban Xuning had found a girlfriend. On the phone, Ban Xuning just told them that he would bring one more person over. Zhang Menghui and Shao Yiping didn't think much about it at that time.
The joke Shao Yiping said before is also true. Although he and Song Shiwei are also classmates, they have made appointments with Song Shiwei several times but have not been able to make an appointment. After all, he is a local, has connections and connections, and he is the deputy chief, and Song Shiwei
Compared with other departments, the two of them are nothing. This time they were sure to ask out Song Shiwei because of Ban Xuning.
When she was in college, Song Shiwei liked Ban Xuning, but Ban Xuning seemed to be a nerd and showed no sign of Song Shiwei's obvious hints several times. But now Song Shiwei is still single, and Zhang Menghui and Shao Yiping are just trying it out.
I gave Song Shiwei a try. As a result, Song Shiwei heard that Ban Xuning would also participate, and she immediately agreed.
This convinced Zhang Menghui and Shao Yiping that Song Shiwei was still interested in Ban Xuning. (To be continued)
