After Dr. Lin left, Chan and I decided to walk along the street.

The lard powder shop is still a little far away from the old and prosperous area in the east of the city, but the local characteristics are obvious. After Chen and I walked for a while, the old archway built with trees and Zhuangzi loomed in the night, and it seemed that the riverside was almost there.

I heard that in recent years, although the government has not paid attention to the renovation of the old city, it has attached great importance to the improvement of the riverside project. Not only has the old archway been repaired, but also the old city wall left by the river has been renovated on a large scale.

Last year, I heard about the caterpillars, and the renovated city wall and small forts were piled up with stainless steel cement to form an antique small tea room. It is said that it is a tea room, but there are very few people who actually drink tea, and in the end it was all converted into a coffee house or a milk tea shop.

As soon as summer begins, it becomes the home of young couples.

Although it is only May at the moment, and it has not yet entered the actual summer season, Chen Yifen and I always have identity scruples, and it is inconvenient for me to enter and exit that kind of place in a bright and upright manner.

I had to slow down my pace, Chen Yifen seemed to be aware, he looked at me suspiciously, I simply stopped, and glared at him dissatisfied: "Do you want to say it?"

"If you say yes, you have to say it. Chen Yifen raised a hand, palmed towards the top of his head, and rubbed back and forth irritably: "I just don't know how to tell you about this?"

I don't know how to say it, and it's often not really that I don't know how to say it.

This is just a pretext that varies from person to person.

To put it more intuitively, if I were in the same camp as Chen at the moment, would he still say that?

Apparently not.

This is a brutal office struggle, in which different factions compete for supreme power in the face of big interests, and in the face of small interests, colleagues within the factions are on guard and against each other. Anyway, the war will never stop, which also determines that we, who are deeply involved in it, cannot trust anyone.

Chen Yifen's current concern is nothing more than that he is afraid that if he talks too much, he will be pinched in my hand and become a sharp weapon to plot against him in the future.

Twelve years of friends were ruined overnight, which is probably why, people living in the current society, have fewer and fewer friends, fewer and fewer, and the more they can't make new friends, so we can only be alone.

"You don't have to tell you the details, and I'm not interested in knowing. I broke the silence and thought about Chen Yifen, either a big leader, or under the command of Manager Mo, and told me about the previous deeds, a person whose position has not yet been determined, it is indeed difficult for some strong people, it is better to ask him directly for a result: "You just tell me, who are you, and I won't ask the rest." ”

"Wu Xiaoqi, we've been friends for twelve years, and you just see me like that?"

Chen's temper, in my eyes, is more like the villain's final dying struggle.

I reversed and began to walk slowly back the way I had come. Chen Yifen stood in place for about half a minute before he quickly caught up.

"There's a coffee shop in front of us, let's sit down and talk. ”

After catching up with me, Chen said calmly.

"I don't like to drink coffee, if you have something to say, you can say it, and if you don't have a word, you can disperse. ”

"Wu Xiaoqi," Chen Yifen's volume was like a broken G tone, which made me unofficial: "That sofa was given by my wife." ”

Uh, wife......

Ha?!

I was dumbfounded.

Chen Yifen is an early marriage, we all know it, but we don't know what Chen Yifen's wife looks like and what she does.

All we know is a fierce image of a tigress.

I remember that four years ago, there was an old comrade who had a hard reputation and encouraged Chen Yifen to bring his wife to a dinner party at the unit on the shuttle bus.

Chen replied one by one: "My wife has a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and her temper is so stinky that she is comparable to the stones in the pit, what are you bringing out this kind of wife for? Shame on people, I am not so stupid." ”

Since then, the news that Chen Yifen married a tigress has spread.

Now, this tigress is making a move on me, can I not tremble?

I lowered my head and took a sip of hot coffee, and my cool heart felt a little warmer.

"Your wife is the boss of Xiao Liu's driver?"

I put down my coffee cup and asked, still uncertain.

Chen Yifen has returned to his usual Chen Yifen, and nodded with a hippie smile: "Hmm." ”

I was very dissatisfied with his attitude, and my brows were about to twist into a twist: "Then at noon, are you going to send your wife?"

"Hmm. He nodded again.

"The paw prints on your face, were they caught by your wife?"

"Hmm. ”

"Okay, I'm done with the questions I want to ask, and now it's time for you to take the initiative to confess. ”

"Alas, what a trouble. Chen Yifen muttered, unrepentant, as soon as I saw it, I was furious: "You still dare to say trouble? You honestly explain to me, does your wife suspect that there is something wrong with the two of us, so you sent the sofa to knock on the mountain and shake the tiger?"

"Oh, Wu Xiaoqi, what do you want?" Chen almost squirted out all the coffee in his mouth, he covered his mouth with his hand, and said with a smile: "I don't have to doubt my relationship with my wife at all." ”

"Don't doubt it? She still tickles you a lot?"

"Every couple has their own unique way of getting along, in your opinion, maybe only two people who have a broken relationship will scratch people, but we are different as husband and wife. Chen Yifen suddenly smiled: "Anyway, the main purpose of my coming today is to clear up the misunderstanding with you." Because of your current situation, you are really passive, if you lose me as a military advisor again, I am afraid that if you are not careful, you will have to roll up the cover and get out. ”

I pressed my forehead sullenly: "The sofa was given by your wife, I have to accept such an unreasonable thing, can't I accept it?" ”

"In order to avoid you being confused and confused, I am a good person to the end, so let's start from the beginning. Chen Yifen held the cup in both hands, his head slightly hooked, and his two eyes stared at the coffee with a story: "Everything starts with rights." ”

I was stunned, so straightforward to open the sentence.

"My dad has two brothers, and his brother, my uncle, used to be the vice president of a state-owned enterprise. Perhaps, all vice presidents have an ambition to be the boss, and he is in the same company, like Manager Mo, step by step. But for those in their position, means, layout and planning are just the most basic contests. What's more, the uncle and his competitors are both real strength and doers. No one has an advantage over the other, but it makes things stagnant for a while. As a result, the uncle had to start looking for external snobbery. Soon, he found it. ”
