Xu Yan woke up to the low roar of the plane, he got up from his seat, yawned, and asked Huang Xi, "What time is it?"

Huang Xi was also sleepy-eyed, and when she heard Xu Yan's question, she looked at her watch: "Director Xu, it's already six o'clock in the afternoon - there are still thirty minutes left, and the plane is about to land." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Obviously, at the door of the first class cabin, someone was waiting all the time. As soon as Xu Yan woke up, someone came over immediately, Xu Tong walked over quickly, and smiled with a lovely smile: "Chief, are you awake? Are you hungry, do you need something to eat?"

"Coffee, please give me a cup of coffee, big one." ”

"Oh, okay. ”

Drinking sweet coffee, Xu Yan's spirit gradually recovered. At this time, Zhao Yanran approached, and she asked Xu Yan in a low voice: "Yanzi, if you go to the capital, have you arranged a place to stay? Which hotel do you plan to stay in?"

"I haven't booked a hotel yet. ”

Knowing that Xu Yan hadn't settled on a place to live, Zhao Yanran's eyes suddenly lit up, she leaned close to Xu Yan's ear, and whispered: "Yanzi, why don't you live in my house?" My home is in the center of the Rising Sun District, and it is convenient to go anywhere. I have two cars at home, you can drive one, and it is convenient to go out to run errands, which is much more convenient than staying in a hotel. ”

Xu Yan coughed dryly: "Yanran, thank you, but this time I came to the capital, I was busy with official business, and it may not be very convenient to live in your house." ”

Zhao Yanran let out an "oh", and she said lightly: "If it's inconvenient... That's it. ”

At this time, Zhao Yanran lowered her eyes, and a real loss appeared on her face.

Looking at Zhao Yanran's lost expression, for a while, Xu Yan was really a little confused: Could it be that Zhao Yanran really fell in love with herself?

Then, Xu Yan smiled bitterly in his heart: Maybe. The other party is a professional actor, and performing a few sad expressions is easy for her. Whether she really likes herself or pretends, she can't tell.

Xu Yan looks easy-going and calm on the surface, and he is very easy to get along with, but in his bones, he is actually a person who is difficult to open his heart, and it is not easy for him to trust people.

Xu Yan has always kept in mind the teachings of his parents: "True friendship must be like gold, and it must be tested by the flame before it can be believed." ”

For those who approached him after he had supernatural powers, he always maintained a trace of vigilance and vigilance in his heart - especially Zhao Yanran, because she was born in the entertainment industry, and Xu Yan's impression of the entertainment industry is that the people in it are falling in love and breaking up every day, and the feelings are so rich that they are about to overflow like computer memory, so no matter how affectionate and affectionate Zhao Yanran is, Xu Yan only needs to have a "Is she performing?" or "Is she lying to me?" in his mind , then he can't be invested in it anyway - in the jargon, he is "out of the play in an instant".

Therefore, despite seeing the resentful expression on Zhao Yanran's face, Xu Yan was unmoved. He pretended not to see, lay down again, tucked his head into the blanket, and continued to pretend to be a turtle.

Half an hour later, the plane landed smoothly at Beijing International Airport. As soon as Xu Yan turned on his mobile phone, an unfamiliar number immediately called in, and Xu Yan pressed the answer button: "Hey, who is it?"

A clear male voice came from the phone: "It's Director Xu, right? Hello, I'm Xiao Chang, the secretary of the Minister of Culture, and we've met before." Director Xu, Minister Wen has arranged for me to pick you up, are you ready to get off the plane now?"

"Hello permanent secretary, thank you for your hard work. As soon as the plane landed, I was ready to get off the plane. ”

"Okay, Director Xu, Lieutenant Colonel Li and I are already waiting for you under the plane. We're in military uniforms, and you should be able to recognize us. ”

Lieutenant Colonel Li? Who is that? Xu Yan hung up the phone and said to Huang Xi, "Minister Wen's secretary has come to pick us up." Let's go down first. ”

According to the usual practice, first-class passengers can get off the plane first, and Xu Yan and Huang Xi walked out of the cabin under the welcome of the flight attendants.

"Mr. Xu, I wish you a pleasant journey, and welcome you to continue to take our flight next time!"

The flight attendants lined up to see them off, with respectful expressions and thoughtful etiquette. Looking at them, Huang Xi laughed out loud, Xu Yan was inexplicable: "Huang Xi, what's wrong?"

"Director Xu, I look at these flight attendants, their expressions and eyes are sending you off, as if they are sending off the plague god!"

Xu Yan grinned, he glanced at the flight attendants, but saw that several flight attendants were also peeking at him, the eyes of the two sides collided together, several flight attendants were startled, they quickly looked away, and a fake smile appeared on their faces - Xu Yan had to admit that Huang Xi was too right, the flight attendants looked at their eyes, and they were completely in a posture of sending the plague god.

The taste of being greeted like this was too uncomfortable, Xu Yan shook his head, quickened his pace, and walked down the gangway quickly.

Next to the plane, a dozen steps away from the gangway exit, a black Audi military car was already quietly parked. Two Army officers in large-brimmed hats stood by the cart, quietly waiting.

Seeing them, Huang Xi reminded Xu Yan in a low voice: "Director Xu, the medium-sized lieutenant colonel officer on the left, he is the permanent secretary! But the lieutenant colonel next to the permanent secretary, I haven't seen it, I don't know who it is." ”

Xu Yan not only saw the permanent secretary, but even the lieutenant colonel beside him, he also recognized it, it was Li Butian Li Tianshi, who had been to Jincheng. It's just that the last time Xu Yan saw him, Li Tianshi was wearing a tattooed gold chain, like an underworld.

But today, Li Butian was dressed in a dark army officer's uniform, with his feet together, standing straight, looking like a deep and awe-inspiring man. Xu Yan was used to Li Butian's cynical and hippie smile, but now that he suddenly saw him in a formal suit with a solemn expression, he felt unaccustomed to it.

Seeing Xu Yan, the permanent secretary and Li Butian hurriedly greeted him: "Director Xu, Assistant Huang, it's been hard all the way!"

They stood upright and saluted Xu Yan dignifiedly, Xu Yan nodded and returned the salute, and then, the two sides shook hands - Xu Yan had to admit that wearing military uniforms and civilian clothes gave people a completely different feeling. The last time I came to the capital, Gao Min came to the airport to greet him, he didn't wear a military uniform, and everyone was very relaxed and casual when they met. But this time, the permanent secretary and Li Butiantong came to pick up Xu Yan in military uniforms, and when he shook hands with them, Xu Yan suddenly felt the solemn temperament unique to the army, and he vaguely smelled the tension of war.

The permanent secretary was about thirty years old, his facial features were very soft, his complexion was fair, and his bright eyes were dark and very divine. He said, "Hello, Director Xu, I'm Xiao Chang. Minister Wen originally wanted to come to pick you up in person today, but there is an important meeting of the General Staff that he wants to attend, so he has entrusted me and Lieutenant Colonel Li to come and pick you up. ”

"Where, bothering you to make a trip, it's hard work!"

Xu Yan said, glanced at Li Butian, and was suspicious in his heart: Wen Xiuzhi sent a secretary to pick me up, this is normal. But Li Butian, what are you doing here? I don't seem to have any friendship with you, do I?

may have also seen Xu Yan's suspicions, Li Butian walked up, shook hands with Xu Yan again, and said sincerely: "Director Xu, the junior asked the Minister of Culture for help and volunteered to come over. Director Xu, you have profound Taoism and great powers, since the last time you met in Jincheng, the younger generation has always admired you, and has always wanted to ask Director Xu for advice. Today, I have the opportunity to get close to Director Xu, which is an opportunity that juniors dream of!"

"Where, Lieutenant Colonel Li is too polite, you are well-educated and well-informed—let's communicate more!"

Saying this, Xu Yan felt weird: "Profound Taoism, great powers", "juniors", "seniors", such words came from the mouth of a lieutenant colonel officer wearing a military uniform, which made people feel very weird, like a character in a modern military-themed movie suddenly told the dialogue of ancient Xianxia, this style is not coordinated at all.

At this time, the other passengers of the first class also got off the gangway. Everyone saw a black Audi sedan parked under the plane waiting for Xu Yan, two lieutenant colonel officers waiting for Xu Yan over there, and the passengers were all awe-inspiring: two lieutenant colonel officers are nothing in the capital where high-ranking officials are everywhere, but if they can drive the car into the plane in the international airport to pick up people, then they have a great face or the ability to reach the sky. Needless to say, the identity of a soldier who can act so flamboyantly in the capital is powerful, which also reflects that the identity of this Mr. Xu is really unfathomable.

Some knowledgeable people noticed the license plate and whispered to their companions: "It's the military license plate of AA! This Mr. Xu, that's the General Staff Headquarters came to pick him up! That's a big bull in the sky!"

After coming down the gangway, Zhao Yanran did not get on the ferry, but stood in the distance and watched herself quietly.

Xu Yan saw it, he sighed secretly, and said to the permanent secretary and Li Butian: "Sorry, wait a minute, I'll go say hello with my friend", and then, he turned around and walked over to Zhao Yanran.

The latter smiled happily when she saw him coming, she stroked the bangs on her forehead, and smiled very sweetly: "Yanzi, they are here to pick you up, right? Are you going to do official business?"

"Yes, you can see that I really can't help myself - I really don't lie to you. ”

Zhao Yanran smiled: "When did I say that you lied to me? Man, you always have to be busy with big things, I know." If you have something to do, just go and call me when you have time. ”

When he was on the plane, Xu Yan refused Zhao Yanran's invitation, which really made him feel very insulted -- you know, I am Zhao Yanran, those suitors who love me, can line up from Xing'anmen in the capital to Tongzhou! I took the initiative to invite you to live together, but you actually refused? This really made Zhao Yanran suffer a big blow, and she was really a little angry with Xu Yan.

However, after getting off the plane, he saw a car from the General Staff Department and two lieutenant colonel officers picking up Xu Yan, and the formation was very serious, and Zhao Yanran understood: It turned out that he was really not lying to himself, he was really busy with big things! In this case, it is understandable.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yanran was immediately relieved, and she said to Xu Yan warmly: "I know, Yanzi, a person like you is busy with national affairs, and this is naturally the most important." Just come over and call me when you have time. ”

Listening to Zhao Yanran's gentle words, Xu Yan was really in a trance: she said goodbye to herself so gently, it was really like a wife who sent her husband on the expedition in ancient times!

"Okay, I'll call you when I'm done. ”

Zhao Yanran said "um" gently, she leaned in and kissed Xu Yan's face gently, and whispered: "Go, you don't have to worry about me, be careful in everything, pay attention to safety - I'll wait for you to come back!"

Xu Yan looked at her, nodded, and turned to walk towards the military vehicle. After getting into the car, he looked out of the car window, but saw that Zhao Yanran was still standing in place and looking at him, watching the military vehicle go away.

Looking at the figure standing in the wind, the very soft place in Xu Yan's heart seemed to be touched by something, and suddenly felt very warm - it was really good to know that there was a beautiful girl who had been worrying about herself and waiting for herself.

At this moment, Xu Yan really hopes that the feelings that Zhao Yanran just revealed are completely sincere, not from her acting skills.

Xu Yan and Zhao Yanran said goodbye and kissed goodbye, and the permanent secretary and Li Butian naturally saw it in their eyes. The permanent secretary is a very reserved person, watching Xu Yan get into the car, he didn't even have the slightest strange expression on his face. But Li Butian seemed to be very familiar, and he patted Xu Yan on the shoulder very enthusiastically: "Hey, Director Xu, that's my sister-in-law, right? It's intimate enough! My sister-in-law is very beautiful, I look at it, it seems that which idol star is very popular now, what is it called? It seems to be surnamed Zhao... What's it called?"

Xu Yan scolded in his heart, this Li Butian has a pair of dog eyes, and he can see things clearly from such a distance.

Xu Yan pretended to be confused, he looked left and right and said, "Secretary Chang, it's getting dark, let's hurry into the city." ”

The permanent secretary turned back from the passenger seat and asked, "There is still some way to the destination, has Director Xu eaten on the plane? Why don't we find a restaurant nearby and eat more?"

"Thank you, we've all eaten on the plane, so we don't need to eat anymore, let's go!"

At half past six in the afternoon, in the northern regions, it was time for night to begin to fall. In the twilight, the car slowly drove out of the airport with a group of people. Not long after the car drove out of the airport, Xu Yan noticed something unusual: "Ahem, master, are you taking the wrong road? The road into the city, you shouldn't take this road, right? You should go on the highway!"

The driver was a stranger in civilian clothes, he heard Xu Yan's words, but he didn't squeak, just glanced sideways at Xu Yan in the rearview mirror, and couldn't laugh. The permanent secretary turned his head and spoke to Xu Yan: "Director Xu, we are not going into the city, we are going to the base in the suburbs." ”

Because of Wen Xiuzhi's warning, Xu Yan's vigilance was very high when he entered Beijing this time. When he heard the word "base," his heart suddenly became awe-inspiring, and he blurted out: "Ah, didn't you go to the city to report to the headquarters? What base are you going to?"

Hearing Xu Yan's question, the permanent secretary smiled, and he replied unexpectedly: "Director Xu, don't worry, the base is not far, and it is only a two-hour drive, so we won't be hungry." (To be continued.) )
