Fang Chaoyang woke up from his dream, rubbed his eyes and sat up, at this moment, it was already dusk.

Getting out of bed, he came to the West House, sat on a chair in front of the window, lit a cigarette, and let the afterglow of the setting sun shine all over his body, feeling warm.

The scene in the dream was still clear, as if it had really happened, Fang Chaoyang felt that he was not so timid, and Qian Youning did not dare to attack easily, the raised kitchen knife symbolized the complex forces behind Qiu Dali's case.

Miao Yi is not an ordinary girl, the Fengwu Jiutian Group she is in charge of, worth more than three billion, is planning to go public, this kind of identity and background is by no means something that a bar waiter like Zhu Hongli dares to challenge.

Also, as Miao Yi, it is difficult for Zhu Hongli to have anything to do with her, let alone a grudge, Zhu Hongli can't take out 300,000 yuan to buy murder just by selling alcohol.

Before he finished smoking a cigarette, Fang Chaoyang's mobile phone rang, it was an unfamiliar number.

"Excuse me, who is it?" Fang Chaoyang asked.

"Haha, Chaoyang, I'm Zhuang Zhiqi. ”

"It's Director Zhuang, why did you remember to call me?"

"The number was given to me by Xiao Jiang, do you have time, let's come out for a meal together!" Zhuang Zhiqi sent out an invitation.

"Eat instant noodles?" Fang Chaoyang asked with a smile.

"It's not so shabby, you have to eat a bowl of beef noodles anyway, and enjoy your face!"

Fang Chaoyang was reluctant to go, but how to say it, Zhuang Zhiqi is also Peng Jiang's uncle, and he will be a family in the future, not to mention that there were some skirmishes last time, so he agreed: "Okay, you choose a place, I'll treat you." ”

"Harvest Road's noodle mother-in-law! Economical, don't drive, let's have two drinks." ”

"Then we will see you or leave us. ”

Fang Chaoyang washed his face, tidied up his clothes and went downstairs, walked to the front of the community, stopped a taxi, and came to the mother-in-law that Zhuang Zhiqi said.

Among the noodle restaurants in Dong'an City, it is relatively high-end, with a bowl of noodles costing more than 20, but compared with large restaurants, it is still a relatively low-cost consumption place.

In the corner in front of the noodle restaurant, there was a half-used bicycle parked, Fang Chaoyang couldn't help but smile secretly, Zhuang Zhiqi is also quite individual, no matter where he goes, he insists on riding a bicycle.

It's not bad, exercise and don't spend gym money.

Walking into the noodle restaurant, there are not many people inside, and it has not yet reached the real meal. Zhuang Zhiqi was wearing a jacket and was sitting in the hall waiting, and when he saw Fang Chaoyang, he hurriedly greeted him.

"Director Zhuang, I've kept you waiting. Fang Chaoyang said politely.

"Hehe, actually, I didn't expect to invite you out. Zhuang Zhiqi was still smiling.

"We're having a family dinner. ”

"Yes, yes, I love to hear that, sooner or later it will be a family. ”

Fang Chaoyang ordered two bowls of beef noodles, four cold side dishes, plus two bottles of beer, and discussed whether he could ask for a private room.

There is a minimum consumption in the private room, probably to see that Fang Chaoyang is handsome, and there are not many guests at this time, the little girl who received the reception at the front desk still agreed to come down, and the sunset hall on the second floor.

Fang Chaoyang insisted on paying, Zhuang Zhiqi pulled a few times, but he didn't insist.

The two came to the private room and sat down, good, it matches the name very well, warm colors. Eating a bowl of noodles in such a hot environment makes me feel at home.

Beer and side dishes came up first, Fang Chaoyang poured a glass of wine for Zhuang Zhiqi, and then said: "Director Zhuang invited me to dinner, there must be something to discuss!"

"That's right, guess what's going on?" Zhuang Zhiqi said with a smile.

"It's related to ginger. ”

"Clever!" Zhuang Zhiqi gave a thumbs up, first took the initiative to raise a glass and Fang Chaoyang, and then said: "My sister is embarrassed to talk to you, so she found me, I don't know how to say this, young people are free in love, it's not easy to interfere!"

"It's okay, just say it. ”

"You and Xiao Jiang have been in love for a long time, and the relationship is also very good, and they are both not too old to be the oldest, and the family has been looking forward to getting married as soon as possible. Say something you don't like to hear, girls can't afford to delay. Zhuang Zhiqi said bluntly.

"I'm sincere to Xiao Jiang, and I'm telling you the truth, I'm not ready. Fang Chaoyang said truthfully.

"Actually, you don't have to prepare anything, my sister is just optimistic about you. I also heard that your community, the conditions are a bit poor, the problem is easy to solve, my sister just bought a 90-square-meter house in Wanghai community with a down payment, 23 floors, two bedrooms and one living room, as for the loan repayment, almost 5,000 per month, I believe that the income of your young couple can still cope with it. Zhuang Zhiqi said.

Marrying a daughter and giving a house is generous enough, and it is also considering that young people don't want to live with their parents and need a separate private space, so they specially prepared a suite.

"Thank you so much to my uncle and aunt for thinking so well for us. Fang Chaoyang was a little moved, but also a little guilty, he didn't save money for Peng Jiang.

"That's what I said, my uncle is half a son, and if it's good for my uncle, it's good for the second daughter. What's more, they don't have a son yet. Zhuang Zhiqi smiled and poured another glass of wine for Fang Chaoyang.

"Well, please tell Auntie, next year. Fang Chaoyang said this, not perfunctory, he planned it this way.

"Don't be next year, you have an affair with that prosecutor all over the sky, my sister and brother-in-law are not at ease!" Zhuang Zhiqi frowned.

"Hai Xiaozhou and I have been in love before, but now we are innocent, if we believe the rumors so easily, I am afraid it will be difficult to get along in the future. Fang Chaoyang was a little unhappy.

"Look at your temper, it should be changed, it is normal for parents to worry about their children. Besides, my niece, I want whatever I want, but I really like you. ”

"I can understand it, but I've been too busy this year to have no plans for marriage. Also, as is traditional, both parents should always see each other. Fang Chaoyang said.

Hearing Fang Chaoyang say this, Zhuang Zhiqi remained silent and did not force it further, besides, he was just an errand to pass on words.

The big bowl of beef noodles was brought up by the waiter, it was steaming, and the two of them ate and drank at the same time, and they didn't even speak for a while. After not eating for a day, Fang Chaoyang was really hungry and ate all of them quickly, but Zhuang Zhiqi only ate half a bowl, and handed over a cigarette, the kind that costs seven yuan a box.

It's really stingy, Fang Chaoyang took a sip after lighting it, the taste was very spicy, and he was choked and coughed.

Zhuang Zhiqi went over and opened the window, sat down again, took a sharp puff of cigarette, and suddenly sighed.

"Director Zhuang, do you have troubles at work?" Fang Chaoyang broke the silence.

"Alas, the first department store in our city, a veteran state-owned enterprise, at this time, it sends people to stay on the side of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, and keeps handing over reports, hoping to get support from state funds. Who can be blamed for this, in the open market economy, every enterprise can be prosperous, they guard the best road section, but they operate half-dead, always arrears of employees' wages, and even taxes are delayed again and again. Zhuang Zhiqi nagged.

"Blood transfusion is not as good as hematopoiesis, and it is still necessary to carry out bold reforms from within. Fang Chaoyang said.

This is the truth, and I have enlightened them like this, but unfortunately, the chairman Liu Jianshe is too stubborn and takes it as a deaf ear. Let's just say that last year, Fengwu wanted to buy 100 million yuan in nine days, and everyone was very happy, but he didn't agree, saying that he was selling state-owned assets cheaply, and he sued the above, which made me disgraced. Zhuang Zhiqi poured bitter water.

The speaker was unintentional, the listener was intentional, and Fang Chaoyang kept this important clue in his heart.
