The 104th: New project
It has been four days since she arrived home, and Ling Qi has maintained a very regular life. Exercising every morning, then reading books and doing housework, and talking to her mother at night, she seems to have slowly adapted to the role change from "son" to "daughter", and also adapted to the performance of a "student" during the holidays.
But in relative contrast day and night, Gu Shuxian still noticed some changes in her daughter, she seems to be more mature and stable, but her character is more resolute and less gentle. In the past, Ling Qi's slight willfulness and grudge seemed to have disappeared, and now this girl made her mother feel more relaxed and strange.
Originally, she always liked to stick to her mother's intimate little padded jacket, as if she had become a mature girl who could live alone after a year of school, Gu Shuxian was relieved and secretly speculated about the reason for Ling Qi's change. Of course, she couldn't think of the mysterious possibility of soul transformation, but she guessed that it was the subtle transformation of the university environment, or-
The influence of love?
Of course, if Ling Qi knew her mother's thoughts, she would definitely vomit three liters of blood, she was already an ace special police officer who had been out of society for several years in her bones, of course, she couldn't be compared with the original ladies in this time and space, so these so-called changes naturally couldn't be linked to love, but one of her negligences still confirmed Gu Shuxian's guess.
After reading Fang Xiyuan's recent text message, Ling Qi snorted lightly and put his mobile phone on the table. After Xishao's resolute confession that day, Ling Qi left the scene like a deserter, and during this time, whenever she was free, she would figure out what the relationship between Fang Xiyuan and herself was. Mere friends are not enough to explain the strange connection between the two, and they really intersected when they formed an alliance against the Qingyan Society. But everything Fang Xiyuan expressed that day had overturned the evaluation of "allies", but it just failed to go further.
According to Fang Xiyuan's confession, his relationship with Yanling is just a farce, and he actually uses the girl's love to try to change the orientation of another girl, and it can be said that he has done whatever it takes to achieve his goal. Didn't this kind of despicable and self-righteous guy come together with him to live up to Ling Qi's promise to protect this body! But Ling Qi was puzzled to find out why he didn't have such a sense of guilt and ...... when he rejected Lin Fan. What about regrets?
The girl supported her crooked head with one hand, and played with the cross given to her by Fang Xiyuan with the other, the little thing of sterling silver emitted a psychedelic halo under the lamp, she couldn't help but slightly curl the corners of her mouth, and used a sneer to hide the contradictions in her heart. The instinct for sudden battle alerted her, and she quickly turned to look behind her, and her mother was already standing there silently, and she didn't know how long she had been watching herself.
Oops, after returning home, my vigilance dropped greatly, and I was so absorbed in thinking about it just now, I didn't notice it at all! Ling Qi had a ghost in his heart, and his unnatural expression couldn't escape Gu Shuxian's eyes at all, the mother reached out to take the gadget with a playful expression, and at the same time her eyes drifted to the mobile phone with a black screen on the corner of the table.
The lesser of two evils! She definitely can't see any clues to this cross, and the text messages on her mobile phone are different! Ling Qi's mind was running like electricity, and she immediately made a gesture to take back the cross, and while Gu Shuxian was smiling and dodging, her right hand silently wiped the corner of the table and hid the mobile phone behind her.
Compared with the current smart touch screen mobile phone,08 years is still the world of button mobile phones,Although there is no advanced trick of smart touch screen mobile phones,But the key phone has an incomparable benefit,That is, blind typing is allowed!U608 has been operated for several months,Ling Qi has long been familiar with the commonly used key sequence,Her right thumb bounced a few times on the rubbed open keyboard,The text message sent by Fang Xiyuan has been destroyedใ
"Ah Qi, who gave this to you?" As expected, Gu Shuxian asked in her usual tone, Ling Qi knew that her mother's superficial gentle tone was ecstasy soup, and if it wasn't right, she would definitely die a miserable death.
"Classmates, devout Christians, love to proselytize when they catch people. Since he knows himself and his opponent, of course Ling Qi should deal with the old way, and his face will not change when he is talking nonsense.
"The cost of missionary delivery of sterling silver is too high, right?" After so many years, Mrs. Guan's insight made Gu Shuxian see the material of the cross at a glance, "Which boy gave it? Are you very close to him?"
Ling Qi blinked a few times and said with a smile: "Where is it, the rich second-generation lady is rich and willful! Mom, don't think about it." โ
"How can this style of chain be used by girls, Ah Qi, don't lie to your mother. Bring me the phone to see!" Gu Shuxian raised her eyebrows, she had actually seen her daughter's action of hiding the phone just now.
I wipe, what the hell is the old Jianghu, why didn't I realize that there was something wrong with this chain! The corners of Ling Qi's eyes twitched, and he subconsciously picked up the platinum necklace around his neck. It seems like...... Indeed, this one is much more delicate than the chain of the cross. Years of experience in fighting wits and courage have made her know for a long time that her mobile phone can't be saved, and the sensitive content has been made old anyway, but it doesn't hurt to give it.
Gu Shuxian casually browsed the content of the text message, except for the content sent by a woman named "Guan Ying" who was somewhat "ambiguous", she did not see any suspicious male messages. She was a little unwilling to return all the things in her hand, and said earnestly: "Ah Qi, it's not that your mother doesn't allow you to fall in love, but you are still young now, and you are going out alone, you must keep your eyes open! Mom is all for your good, of course the candidates recommended to you will not be bad, such as that Xiaolin of Cangyuan Group, do you still have contact?"
Speaking of which, it's still this routine, the nature of the country is easy to change, and it is difficult to change! Ling Qi's face slowly sank, and he said impatiently: "There is not much contact, he is not very enthusiastic." โ
Gu Shuxian sighed lightly, stroked the top of her daughter's head and said: "Then don't be too reserved, now this kind of person with good background and foreign background is very sought-after, and if you hesitate for too long, you won't have that store in this village." โ
Ling Qi's expression became more and more ugly, her mother was good everywhere else, but she was a little arbitrary and snobbish. In Gu Shuxian's eyes, children are only an accessory in the family, and they must absolutely obey their parents' arrangements in addition to the cultivation and education of good students. Because of this, her attitude towards Jin Yanling, who had a strong personality but an average background, was not ideal, which caused the contradiction between the prospective mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to become increasingly intensified, which in turn led to the breakup of Ling Jin and the tragedy afterward.
"What do the parents of this boy who gave you something do? How does it look? You are still relatively young, it's okay to talk, but don't invest too deeply, especially girls must pay attention to protecting themselves......" Gu Shuxian didn't care about Ling Qi's dissatisfaction, and said to herself, although she had some truth about her daughter's education, but when she asked the other party about her background and appearance at the beginning, she couldn't help but be directly labeled as "superficial and snobbish" by Ling Qi.
"I have nothing to do with this person, you think too much!" Ling Qi unceremoniously interrupted her mother's chattering preaching, and simply got up and walked out of the room quickly, just as there was a sound of the door opening downstairs, she knew that it was the head of the family who had returned, and she slipped down the stairs as if she was flying.
At the end of a busy week, Ling Long finally returned home, and although he was physically and mentally exhausted, it was all swept away when he saw his daughter. Ling Qi didn't throw herself into her father's arms like her previous soul and be cute, but she still tried her best to make the actions that a "daughter" should have, obediently helped Ling Long put the blazer and briefcase where they should be, and then quickly made a pot of fragrant tea for her father.
Even if there is some small friction between mother and daughter, as long as it is not a matter of principle, they generally don't want the father to know. Therefore, Gu Shuxian came downstairs and put on a smiling expression, as if the unhappiness just now had never happened, and the family finally got together happily.
Ling Long is used to sharing some work achievements with his wife during breaks, and Gu Shuxian is also very competent in front of the audience, and the tacit understanding cultivated by the two in their marriage for more than 20 years is quite good. Ling Qi played the role of a maid serving tea and water next to her, after all, Jiu'an's work had too many things she cared about, and this was a good opportunity to gather intelligence.
"The renovation of the water pipes is basically completed, and now the county seat of Jiu'an and several large towns can drink tap water. The first phase of the industrial zone is also being completed, and the highlight is the xylene chemical plant, which will be completed in two months, and will be put into production when the raw materials and equipment are complete. Ling Long smelled the fragrant tea made by his daughter while guiding his career.
"Will the chemical plant be too polluted? How long will it take for his raw materials and equipment to be in place?" Gu Shuxian looked at her husband's bloodshot eyes and felt a little distressed, but she knew that as long as she took care of the house for him silently, it would be the greatest help. Of course, occasionally showing concern for a man's work is a very effective way to make the other person happy.
Ling Long took a sip of hot tea to warm his stomach, and then said: "As long as this project is produced in strict accordance with the world's unified standards, there will not be much pollution, Cangyuan is the top private enterprise in the province, and it is no problem to do this." They also signed a large contract for the transportation of raw materials with Wang Yang Group some time ago, and this project should be put into operation soon. Recently, there is a public bidding in X City, and they want to build a water conservancy project here in Z City to relieve the pressure on their tap water drinking, and Cangyuan should also participate. Jiu'an has good hydrological resources and close distances, so it is estimated that this project will not be able to run away. โ
Hearing that another project that Cangyuan might be involved in was going to settle in Jiu'an, Ling Qi was a little breathless, and blurted out: "What, isn't the water in Yunding Lake enough to drink?"
"Silly boy, with such a population in X City, of course Yunding Lake alone is not enough. Ling Long smiled, pulled Ling Qi to sit down beside him, and rubbed his daughter's hair dotingly, "Originally, the tap water resources of X City were provided by the surrounding counties and cities, and Yunding Lake only accounted for less than 20%, and it was more used as a resource reserve. However, the water quality in the north is average, and the price is on the high side, so this time our water pipe renovation has been completed, and they also want to do a good job of docking the water diversion and make use of the resources of Jiu'an. More exchanges with the special economic zones are very beneficial to the development of our Z city. โ
To build a water conservancy project, the design, site selection and construction are still secondary, and the most critical thing is the requisition and relocation of the reservoir location. It is only necessary to give up the project funds and push the most complicated and cumbersome links to Z City and Jiu'an County, and the X city government is of course willing. Ling Qi quickly went through all kinds of benefits and disadvantages in her head, and naturally Ling Long could think of anything she could think of, but those possible conspiracies behind Cangyuan, as well as Huang Yunxin's impatience, could Ling Long also think of it?
