Chapter 150: Suspicion
In 2011 Huaxia, the Cadillac SRX has been considered a relatively popular mid-to-high-end model, and Ling Qi, who was standing next to the Golf, couldn't see its license plate because of the angle of sight, but her keen perception of details told her that this champagne-colored SUV with stiff lines was the one that the guy once drove.
"Qi'er, do you get off work so late, don't you have to be so dedicated!"
Before she could be surprised, a familiar voice sounded behind the girl, and her heart trembled slightly, but her chaotic thoughts did not know how to react. Just as she was hesitating, a hand had already put on Ling Qi's shoulder, turning her body slightly, and the girl's eyes were immediately filled with Fang Xiyuan's chest. Although hidden in a casual shirt, you can still vaguely see the wide and strong lines, and there is a kind of stability that people want to rely on.
Xi Shao's soft eyes flashed with unconcealable affection, if it weren't for Ling Qi's reaction, I am afraid that he would have embraced this lovely person who had been thinking about it for a long time. But he knew that this girl was different from ordinary people, and those domineering president routines that conquered girls that were tried and tested would not work for her at all. Moreover, as Ling Qi's head slowly raised, what Fang Xiyuan saw was a haggard, hesitant but not fragile pretty face, which made him suppress the impulse in his heart, and he could only act with affection and politeness.
After seeing Fang Xiyuan's appearance clearly, Ling Qi's water-cutting eyes lit up with some excited divine light at first, but they quickly dimmed, and after avoiding the other party's burning gaze, he said indifferently: "It's nothing, it's too late for something to happen today, I usually get off work on time." ”
At this time, a fool could also see that Ling Qi's mood was panicked and depressed, obviously the sudden explosion in Jiu'an County put her heart under tremendous pressure, and the kind of fear of her father could not be hidden in front of those close to her. Fang Xiyuan felt sorry for the girl, and asked cautiously: "There are no arrangements for the evening, can I invite you to dinner? I haven't seen you for so long, let's have a good chat." ”
After struggling for a moment in his heart, Ling Qi nodded silently and jumped into the passenger seat of the Cadillac without saying a word. She didn't know why she chose to believe in Fang Xiyuan, who represented Wang Yang's camp, at this complicated moment when it was difficult to distinguish between friend and foe...... Perhaps after so many years of transformation and rebirth, subconsciously, women's inexplicable dependence on intuition has gradually affected Ling Qi's behavior, making her go further and further in gender compromise.
At this time, the central area was already full of lights, and Ling Qi's long time of hard thinking and meditation in the office just allowed them to avoid the rush hour after work, although it was not very smooth along the way, but there was not much congestion. But there was no sound in the car except for the light symphony, and the two of them had their own hearts and minds, and they didn't say a word.
Waiting for the car to stop, Ling Qi looked at the Sichuan restaurant in front of him and was a little stunned, although it was ranked among the eight major cuisines, but this Sichuan cuisine was difficult to get on the table due to its relatively homely practices and materials. What's more, I've never heard that Fang Xiyuan likes spicy food, and it's really strange that he, a returnee, is rich and handsome, and he chose such a down-to-earth place.
As if seeing the doubts in Ling Qi's heart, Fang Xiyuan smiled faintly and said: "This is the Sichuan restaurant with the highest grade and level in X City, and the quality can definitely be assured." Don't you like spicy food, the last time I went to Xiangjianghong, I saw that you ate very happily. ”
Ling Qi's mind turned sharply, and his thoughts drifted back to the night when he teased each other's ancestral hometowns, although this young man from Chu can eat spicy food, he can see that he is not interested in this kind of food, it is really inexplicable...... So she shrugged her shoulders and said, "It's different, that's Hunan cuisine." ”
"I knew it was different, that's why I chose this place. I remember that your favorite is Sichuan food, I heard that it is often ordered in the university cafeteria, isn't it?" Fang Xiyuan naturally raised his hand and patted the girl on the back to signal to follow, and then walked in front.
He...... Ling Qi looked at Fang Xiyuan's back in a daze, a trace of warmth floated in his heart, and his gaze gradually softened, but it was instantly replaced by a melancholy look.
I hope you are not my enemy.
Fang Xiyuan doesn't seem to be a frequent customer of this high-end Sichuan restaurant, after all, the last time he returned to China was half a year ago. But after reporting their names, the store quickly arranged the two into a small and clean private room according to the reservation, and soon a series of classic dishes such as mapo tofu, back pot meat, and boiled fish were served one by one. Although they are all girls' favorite foods, she is a little tasteless in her heart, but fortunately, her menstrual period has just passed, otherwise even these spicy things will be avoided, and Fang Xiyuan's arrangements at night will hit the board.
The current situation is complicated, and the reversal of the responsibility for the explosion in the industrial zone is very likely to make Ling Qi suspicious of Wang Yang, and it is good to be able to agree to have dinner with him now, and there is no need to expect the girl to show much enthusiasm. However, Fang Xiyuan still didn't know the details of her and Lin Wenfeng's calculations in Guanling Mountain, so she was still a little too optimistic about Ling Qi's state of mind.
Patiently waiting until he was full, Ling Qi drank the juice to relieve the spiciness, while indifferently looking at the delicate patterns on the tablecloth. Fang Xiyuan knew that she was waiting for her to speak first, so she took the opportunity to say: "Qi'er, I know that you are worried about your father, and I can't say anything else, but Wang Yang is by no means your enemy, and we are still investigating the cause of this accident." ”
Hearing this, Ling Qi put down the cup and looked at Fang Xiyuan's eyes expressionlessly, as if he wanted to see something from those deep eyes. After a while, she said, "What do you think is the truth of this matter? In short, I believe most in my father, who has always been a strict man, and will never make any lowly mistakes in such a high-stakes project." ”
"Naturally, we Wang Yang have great trust in Secretary Ling and the entire Jiu'an County Government team, especially ......" Fang Xiyuan paused and raised his voice slightly to emphasize, "Especially after Huang Yunxin was transferred away. Although I have not been in China for the past few years, my mother's attention to Jiu'an Industrial Zone has never relaxed, and you should also believe that Wang Yang will not smash his own signboard by doing tricks on the goods transported, right?"
Referring to the female official who had an ambiguous relationship with Lin Cangxi and the entire Cangyuan Group, Ling Qi's expression changed slightly. This woman represents too much information, and she was originally promoted to the director of the city's agriculture bureau and had faded out of Ling Qi's sight, but thinking of the inexplicable relationship between her and Lin Cangxi, it seems that there is a vague clue that involves the seemingly unrelated Huang Yunxin and the explosion in the industrial zone.
Before he had time to think about it, Fang Xiyuan's voice floated in: "Lin Cangxi has saved himself now, and the others are not so lucky." I guess there will be turmoil within Cangyuan and even within the Qingyan Association because of this incident, because Chen Qi and Lin Cangxi are already at odds, and they will definitely not sit idly by and watch the opportunity for him to be investigated. ”
Ling Qi's lips pursed slightly, as if he had made up his mind and said, "They dog-eat-dog have nothing to do with me, Cangyuan has now provided very strong evidence to prove that they have no problem with the quality of the goods, where do you think that small part of the problematic products that are used come from?"
If Wang Yang is really an enemy, such a question is tantamount to revealing to Fang Xiyuan that he already doubts their minds, but if this kind of human's normal reaction is not shown in front of Fang Xiyuan, it will make people feel that she is deliberately hiding something, which is even more detrimental to conversation. Moreover, only by taking a brave step in this way can it be possible to obtain further information, whether it is overt or hidden, and the tiger can be obtained without entering the tiger's den!
Fang Xiyuan didn't think that much, because he couldn't push his beloved girl into the hostile camp anyway, and the tall young man replied without thinking: "My mother and I both think that there are two possibilities, one is Cangyuan's deliberate framing and thieves shouting to catch thieves, and the other is that there are traitors within Wang Yang who want to disintegrate the reputation of the group. Anyway, this incident is not a small blow to Wang Yang, what a vicious opponent!"
Ling Qi was half of his energy listening to Fang Xiyuan's news, and the other half was used to observe the subtle movements and expressions of his speech, and the knowledge of behavioral psychology that he had studied hard during college told the girl that this man was not lying.
But what is the explanation for the incident at Guanling Mountain? Why did Wang Ning send a group of men and horses who wanted to kill the killer to carry out the mission?
The train of thought came to a dead end again, Ling Qi didn't dare to ask Fang Xiyuan, who couldn't be fully trusted, for verification, after all, the old knife of the Chaowei Emperor's gathering a few days ago didn't show any abnormality, and this strange contrast made her even more like walking on thin ice.
Seeing Ling Qi's fluttering gaze, Fang Xiyuan knew that she was hesitating, indicating that her words still had some effect, so she hit the railroad while it was hot: "Qi'er, I know that the current situation is very complicated, and you have doubts about Wang Yang." I don't expect you to trust me, a person who has just returned to China, right away, but I am sure to you that Wang Yang is definitely not your enemy, and I will stand firmly on your side!"
"Who else can be trusted but you?" Ling Qi's words would definitely make Fang Xiyuan's heart flutter if they were said in a rhetorical tone, but unfortunately she used a questioning tone, and even ...... There are some doubts.
"It's hard to say, until it's clear, you have to pretend that nothing happened and don't attract anyone's attention. Fang Xiyuan thought for a moment, and what he said was exactly the same as Gu Shuxian's request, "Now that your father's future is not stable, it is difficult for us to speculate on the conclusion of the provincial investigation team. But in order to protect you and limit the expansion of Cangyuan's power in Jiu'an, Wang Yang will definitely find the most suitable reason to properly solve the problem. ”
"After all, it's our Ling family that has use value, so Wang Yang will attach so much importance to it, right?" Ling Qi's face suddenly turned cold, and he opened the topic, "This matter will not be discussed in depth for the time being, Guan Zekai, the captain who was responsible for the transportation of raw materials for the last batch of chemical plants, is it your person?"
Ling Qi's change of attitude made Fang Xiyuan frown, but he still followed her words and said: "I am not familiar with this person, it has been verified that he entered the transportation department a year and a half ago, and he is an experienced seafarer, and he has transported similar goods before. ”
"Do you think he could be the problem with the inferior materials this time?" Ling Qi said as she stared at Fang Xiyuan's eyes tightly, in fact, she also wanted to know what was hidden behind the somewhat familiar captain.
