Volume 5: The Living Puppet Nation (4)
Early the next morning, the news that the dark minister and Assistant Lin had an awkward quarrel flew all over the entire headquarters building as if they had grown wings, not that they were clairvoyant, but that the atmosphere between these two people was really intriguing.
Let's talk about Feng Rong, although he has always looked cold and strong, but he is still very easy to get along with when he is not involved in official business - he doesn't have to deal with anyone, he doesn't need to get along, how can it be difficult to get along - and usually the minister's edict is conveyed by Lin Yingkong, and the minister in the hearts of most of the members is a rare character who even listens to his lectures in the past, but Feng Rong has changed his temperament like an evil one today, and took the initiative to talk to others, scaring a circle of onlookers out of a white sweat!
Everyone was terrified, and they were afraid that Assistant Lin would wipe himself out when he was talking and laughing, but he looked for it within his sight - ho!
Lin Yingkong usually smiles lightly and softly smiles without saying a word, he loves to laugh more than Maitreya Buddha, no one can understand the sincerity and falsehood, Feng Rong's pseudo-facial paralysis will at least change his face, but if you want to say that who has seen Lin Yingkong's gloomy face, this is really gone, the more people are in a bad mood, the more they laugh like a spring breeze, anyway, when they see him being kind to who and who they are, they just recite Amitabha Buddha silently, but today's Lin Yingkong actually doesn't even smile! He was born with smiling lips, even if he had a straight face, anyone who saw him would think he was laughing, but today Lin Yingkong was able to flatten his mouth and didn't bend back in the morning, and everyone else felt that his mouth was tired and choked.
"According to my statistics," Ding Youlan secretly pointed at the only few single rooms on the same floor, "Assistant Lin's frequency of entering and leaving the minister's office this morning has dropped by 95%, the frequency of internal contact has dropped by 88%, the frequency of looking at the minister with affection has decreased by 30%, the frequency of the minister directly explaining the work to us has increased by 65%, and the frequency of looking for Vanya's assistant has increased by 75%......"
I wish Meng Tian confidence, "Block all my family property, the minister and Assistant Lin must have a crisis in their relationship!"
The assistants gave him a collective glance - nonsense! Who can't see it!
"What about the solution to the crisis?" Vonya suddenly appeared behind Zhu Mengtian like a ghost, and said faintly.
"......!" Zhu Mengtian was taken aback, patted his little chest and said in shock: "What are you doing in Vanya, people are scary and scared to death!"
Vania glanced at him resentfully, "If you can't find a solution, I'm about to be killed by the Reflection Eye." ”
I don't even need to ask what the reason is, the assistants silently lit wax for her - it's not easy to be sandwiched between two men, cough cough, and the men who are engaged in the base!
After ordering the wax, Zhu Mengtian hurriedly gossiped: "Vonya, you are a close minister of the Son of Heaven, do you have any inside information to refer to?"
Fei Rong also said: "What is the matter between the minister and Assistant Lin, how did Assistant Lin look like he was abandoned?"
"I guess it's almost there......" Vonya's eyes narrowed at the mention of this, "Didn't you also count it just now, Yingkong was beaten into the cold palace at this time." ”
"So you don't know what rhythm the two of them are?" Zhu Mengtian heard what she meant and wondered.
Derpy browned, "The minister shouldn't be untargeted......"
"He spoils Yingkong very much," Warnia, who is also an assistant, said with envy and hatred, "It must be Yingkong's bastard who shouldn't have done something!"
However, Wonya and the assistants denounced Lin Yingkong behind his back for being too fat, but he himself was really wronged this time - how could he be unreasonable, it was obviously the minister who disliked him first!
He was stunned, since Feng Rong said that he didn't mind their contact in the secret room of Sansang Academy, he really didn't mind, he didn't have any emotional intelligence to lie about this kind of thing, but he didn't care, why did he have to distance himself from himself?
Feng Rong's private space really made Lin Yingkong heartbroken, even if he had other purposes, he also worked diligently behind Feng Rong for six years, from the most tacit partner to the closest friend, that feeling could not be erased no matter what, the minister actually cut an invisible gap in the relationship between the two people with a single sentence......
Lin Yingkong wasn't angry, he turned around and left last night because he was afraid that he would do something stupid on impulse, so he could only go back and calm himself down for a while before thinking about things, and then he combed and analyzed all the recent things, and finally slapped his thigh - didn't he do anything wrong?
What should be done step by step is also step by step, and what should be shot is also shot, and he didn't rashly surprise the minister because of the last intimate contact, so the problem is still the latter?
The wolf pen that Feng Rong gave him yesterday ran around the desk lively, completely quiet and elegant as a pen should be, Lin Yingkong stared at it for a while, sighed, grabbed it and threw it into the pen holder with the formation, and immediately settled down. He felt that he was similar to this pen, and he couldn't stabilize his heart before he saw the minister, so he dragged a few documents and went to the minister's office.
After the "Minister ......" knocked on the door and entered, Lin Yingkong looked as if he was carefully checking the seal of the budget application of the field service team of the Spirit Law Enforcement Department for next month, and couldn't help but call.
I don't know if it's because his tone is too aggrieved, Feng Rong was silent for a moment before he raised his head calmly and said, "I just started reading the budget application, and the logistics department is urging it?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, it was business, Lin Yingkong didn't dare to ask anything else, and hurriedly spread the documents he brought on the table, "That's not in a hurry, there are a few ministers you can deal with......"
After chatting casually about work for half an hour, Lin Yingkong inadvertently saw that it was lunch time on the clock without looking up, so he said, "Let's go eat first, minister, is it still the canteen?"
Feng Rong closed the information in his hand, "You and Meng Tian and they go to eat, Chu Tong and I have a dinner later, and we will go out immediately." ”
“…… Deputy Xun?" Lin Yingkong's movements paused, "Why didn't you tell me the itinerary you arranged, minister?" It should be said that Lin Yingkong usually arranged the itinerary for Feng Rong and then reported to him directly, and when did Feng Rong go to the dinner so actively?
Feng Rong also realized that he was doing something inappropriate, and he didn't think about anything when he was absent-minded before, "I'm sorry, Chu Tong was in a hurry......"
"The minister doesn't need to apologize, I can't ask about what you decided," Lin Yingkong smiled, as if he was a respectful subordinate, "Does the minister need me or Wonya to accompany him, what time will he come back, will he delay the afternoon meeting with the Department of Judgment on the statistics and inventory confirmation of the judgment of the task object in the last quarter?"
Since Feng Rong was discharged from the hospital a few months ago, Lin Yingkong has rarely used this kind of businesslike attitude, Feng Rong suddenly seemed to be unable to bear the game, and his reaction was half a beat slower before he said: "It's just a meal, it's fast, don't delay things." ”
"Okay, I see. Lin Yingkong packed up his things and stood up, and said, "Then I'll send the minister downstairs." ”
“…… Well. ”
Two hours later, full of wine and food, everyone said goodbye to each other happily, and in the end, only Feng Rong and Xun Chutong were still drinking tea unhurriedly in the box.
Sighing for a good tea, Xun Chutong looked at Feng Rong next to him, even at the dinner table, he was like a sword opened and put in the sheath, low-key but also hidden, no one could hesitate. Xun Chutong sighed, "It's still you who come forward to take the lead, those old fritters don't even dare to open an extra bottle of wine." But where is the sun going this time? I casually mentioned on the phone, you're going to come to this dinner?"
Feng Rong replied casually but truthfully, "I was distracted for a while." ”
The corners of Xun Chutong's mouth twitched, "What do you think, old distraction, what if Shenjun asks you to go on a blind date to see you!"
Feng Rong frowned as if puzzled, "That great-great-granddaughter of the Suzaku family...... Is it really a blind date?"
"Otherwise, what do you think?" Xun Chutong was angry and funny, "Shenjun is lazy, you still expect him to match up for our bureau?"
Feng Rong was noncommittal, and only after a while did he say something shocking: "Chu Tong, do you think I should go on a blind date?"
"......!?" The deputy head of the Department of Law Enforcement almost rolled under the dinner table with a grunt, and cried out: "My ancestor, what happened to you and Assistant Lin?"
Feng Rong asked slowly, "Why do you ask this?"
Xun Chutong held the table steady, "Didn't you have something to do with Assistant Lin, can you think about a blind date?"
The expression on Feng Rong's face was very strange, and there was a little weird confusion in his calmness, "I don't have a blind date, can I have anything to do with Yingkong?"
Xun Chutong swallowed back the words that came to his throat, and looked at Feng Rong's face in fear, didn't he keep saying that Lin Yingkong didn't make it clear to this master, but now this posture is clear or not?
Xun Chutong really didn't understand what was going on between the two of them, but he couldn't interfere in the affairs of the two of them, so he had to choose a safe topic: "Then why are you suddenly thinking about going on a blind date?"
He asked lightly, but the curiosity in his heart was like a cat's paw, and his heart was tickled. But Feng Rong was silent for a long time, and then slowly raised his eyebrows, lifted his lips, and said lightly: "I'm distracted, talking nonsense." ”
Xun Chutong's eyes widened: "......?!"
Feng Rong is distraction and shirked all the responsibility, but Xun Chutong scratched his heart with a hundred claws, and after returning to the office, he thought about it for a long time, and decided to give Lin Yingkong a reminder, he was standing on Feng Rong's side, but he was standing on Feng Rong's side, so he didn't want him to be fooling around with low emotional intelligence!
So on the thirty-third floor of the headquarters, the assistants outside clearly saw that Lin Yingkong, who had just explained to them, had his hands free to answer the phone, and when he hooked the corners of his mouth, he pinched his own mobile phone.
