With multiple question marks in his mind, and with a stomach full of doubts, Chu Tianqi came down from the upper floor and walked towards room 414.

As soon as I arrived at the door of the office, a voice came from the room: "Tell me honestly, where have you been?"

Just thinking about things, when he heard this movement at first glance, Chu Tianqi was startled. Looking up, the door of the house was wide open, Pei Xiaojun and Cao Yukun were sitting in the house, and Cao Yukun was pointing at himself. Then he smiled and said: "Lao Cao, don't look fierce, just like a prisoner, I just went out for a short while, as for the fuss?"

Pei Xiaojun answered: "Old Chu, it's not a short time. It's been almost half an hour since we came, and I haven't seen you. ”

"It didn't take long, I felt pretty fast. Chu Tianqi looked sloppy and did not answer positively.

"Isn't menopause looking for you again?" Pei Xiaojun said, "She hasn't bothered you for a few days." ”

Chu Tianqi shook his head: "No." She must not look for me. ”

"It's not her, which woman is that?" Cao Yukun smiled "hehe", "Lao Chu, is Miss Ruoyue looking for you?"

Chu Tianqi couldn't help but ask: "Lao Cao, don't talk nonsense, what are people looking for me* to do, and they won't give me a promotion." ”

Cao Yukun snorted: "You pretend to be quite similar, that day you insisted that you went out to answer the phone, and said that you were calling from a relative, but it turned out that you went to a private meeting with Director Ming, don't think I don't know." ”

Chu Tianqi smiled and said, "The more you talk about this, the more boundless you are, where is this?"

"Lao Chu, I came first just now, and I met Director Ming in the courtyard. She said that she met you at Jinquku KTV that day, and asked me if I was there too. Cao Yukun raised his eyebrows, "It's normal for colleagues to meet occasionally, why do you bother to hide it? ”

"I did answer a relative's phone that day, and when I answered the phone, I happened to meet Director Ming, and after saying hello, she entered the KTV, and I just made another call. Speaking of this, Chu Tianqi changed the topic, "I just found a place to smoke a cigarette today, and went to the toilet to squat for a while, how can I find this and see that as you said." ”

"Really?" Cao Yukun stood up and circled around Chu Tianqi. Suddenly, he pointed at the other person's back and laughed, "Why is this wet*? You can really pour water, your object is really powerful." Hahaha......"

"I'll see. Pei Xiaojun also stood up, and then laughed, "Hahaha...... Lao Chu, you should ask the relevant departments to identify it and see what is different in the structure of your thing. ”

Chu Tianqi subconsciously touched his back, but no, it was really wet*. Looking at the two malicious smiles, Chu Tianqi hurriedly said: "I was in it for a long time just now, and I was just sweating a little, why are you two so blind to arrange? Why don't you smell it and see if there is any ......?"

Pei Xiaojun answered: "I have smelled it, a smell." ”

"Well, I'm so angry. No wonder you can provoke a woman, you are really ashamed. As he spoke, Cao Yukun covered his nose exaggeratedly.

"Okay, you two boys, are you idle today and deliberately come to entertain me?" Chu Tianqi pointed at the other party, "If you really don't have to do it, drag the ground twice." ”

"Let's just ......" Halfway through the words, Cao Yukun turned to Pei Xiaojun, "Oh, old Pei, just talk, I'm going to make a mistake, let's go." ”

Pei Xiaojun glanced at his watch: "Isn't it?" ”

Cao Yukun took a step, and still pointed at Chu Tianqi: "You kid is not honest." ”

"Not honest. Pei Xiaojun did not forget to add oil and vinegar.

Pei and Cao laughed and left, leaving only Chu Tianqi in the room.

……

Subconsciously touched his back with both hands again, and his clothes were wet * a large piece, no wonder his back felt cold and swishing, it turned out to be sweating.

Chu Tianqi secretly laughed that he had never seen the world, and he was nervous when he saw a ministerial-level leader, if he saw the head of the Central Committee, he would not be scared to pee his pants?

Chu Tianqi couldn't help but wonder, didn't he just see a deputy minister at the level of a minister? How could he be so nervous? As soon as he entered Zhou Jianguo's office today, Chu Tianqi lowered his head slightly and sat for more than half an hour. For the whole forty or so minutes, I was not comfortable sitting and standing, and I relied on my legs to support the weight of my body, but fortunately I was thinner, and fortunately I had been walking for many years, otherwise I really couldn't stand it. That's it, my leg hurts a little, and it still hurts.

It is said that he has also seen the world, the old man is a revolutionary father, and he cannot be compared with Zhou Jianguo, even the old man is not much lower than Deputy Director Zhou. Before this, Li Weimin and Cheng Aiguo, whom I had seen, were also department-level cadres, and their level was even lower at that time. Among these people, they only occasionally get nervous when they meet a few people for the first time, and they are not so frightened. Why is it that when I see this Vice Minister Zhou today, I am scared of this virtue?

As soon as the question came out, Chu Tianqi searched in his mind, and soon came to a conclusion: because of identity, because of desire.

When I met Li Weimin for the first time, I was also nervous. But that time was just a chance encounter, and it was a low point in life at that time, and there were some barefoot people who were not afraid to wear shoes, or they were broken jars, a kind of indifferent mentality. When I saw Li Weimin again, I regarded the other party more as Ning Junqi's father, followed by the secretary of the municipal party committee. That time at Ning Junqi's house, didn't he scare away at the critical moment? Of course, it was just an impulse.

As for the first time I met Minister Cheng, I was only a little nervous at the beginning, but when the other party told me about his relationship with Li Weimin, I inadvertently had the feeling of being a fox and a fake tiger. And he felt that he was not too much worse than the deputy department, and the other party spoke more kindly, so his courage was naturally fat.

Although the old man has a high status, he is his grandfather, and there is a strong blood relationship between the two, which dilutes his political identity. The same is true for getting along with the uncle, especially before knowing the uncle's official position, he has had many contacts, and he has regarded the other party as an elder.

Vice Minister Zhou, who I met today, although he had no intersection with himself before, he has always regarded the other party as a big leader and knows that he is a person who can influence his career. I am worried that my position and work will be affected because of poor manners or improper behavior, and I care about everything I have now. Similarly, although Vice Minister Zhou was quite kind today, it was just to make himself as nervous as possible and to be able to express his true thoughts fluently. In his bones, the other party completely regards himself as a subordinate, and that invisible official authority is naturally released.

He and Vice Minister Zhou have a purely working relationship, a standard subordinate and subordinate, and most of them have a family relationship, sometimes as juniors, mixed with more personal elements, and this is the crux of the problem.

Thinking about this question, Chu Tianqi felt a lot more relaxed in his heart, and he couldn't help but feel a little complacent. I was just sweating a little, and the narration was smooth and natural, and I didn't scare my body like sifting chaff, let alone urinate. If other departments meet the provincial governor or leaders at the same level, it is not clear whether they can walk in and out normally, and it is unknown whether they will be scared to pee their pants.

After such a psychological hint, Chu Tianqi's heart was completely calm, and his thoughts returned to the matter of being found itself.

When I was in Vice Minister Zhou's office today, although the other party did not give a good or bad evaluation of the report, and it was not clear what the other party really intended to find him, it was obviously not the Xingshi who had guessed before. Judging from Vice Minister Zhou's tone and the way he interrogated, he should still be more interested in this report, and he also has a feeling for his reply, or even some appreciation. Judging from the situation of the conversation at the time, although I dare not determine whether it is good for me, I think it can be ruled out that it is a bad thing.

Suddenly, a question came to Chu Tianqi's mind: How could Vice Minister Zhou see the report and only report it himself? Could it be that Vice Minister Zhou saw the same copy, and could it be that someone else presented it to him? Then why is Vice Minister Zhou's attitude so different from what he had guessed?

I think about it, and I think hard. Chu Tianqi thought as hard as he could.

……

When he was about to get off work in the morning, Chu Tian still didn't fully understand something, so he was about to go to lunch, but then his mobile phone rang.

glanced at the caller ID, it was still the fixed number three hours ago, Chu Tianqi was a little flustered, and hurriedly connected the phone and shouted "Director Zhou".

Zhou Jianguo's voice came from the mobile phone: "Comrade Chu Tianqi, you make a new report, enrich and improve some of the original content, and write in the suggestions you talked to me today." ”

Slightly stunned, Chu Tianqi hurriedly said, "Yes." ”

"Reports must be neat and clean, and don't litter. Don't be like that, the painting is messy, and it is crumpled up and thrown into the garbage basket. Thankfully, the title is still there, otherwise I wouldn't have noticed, wouldn't it be a pity?" the tone on the phone carried a hint of humor.

Although the other party said it easily, Chu Tianqi didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly explained: "Director, I didn't throw it around, I ......"

"Hehe, I don't think you should have done that yourself. At this point, Zhou Jianjun advised, "You must hurry, you must be careful, and be sure to hand over the newly revised research report to me before getting off work tomorrow afternoon." ”

"Yes. Chu Tianqi simply replied with a word.

There was a "pop" sound, and the other party hung up the phone.

Holding the phone, Chu Tianqi let out an "oh": "No wonder." He already understood that the report he gave to Chang Huimin had been thrown away by the woman, and Director Zhou, who happened to be careful, found this report.

"It's disgusting. After scolding the woman, Chu Tianqi hurriedly walked out of the door. He needs to eat quickly, and then come back and hurry up to revise the report.
