After Xiao Gu drove the car to the prosperous area in Tongzhou District, he put Liang Jian down on the side of the road. When Liang Jian got out of the car, Ma Qiang stopped talking, with a complicated expression on his face. Liang Jian knew what he wanted to say, but since Ma Qiang wanted Liang Jian to ensure his safety, it was necessary to give up a period of personal freedom. Therefore, Liang Jian ignored him, and after only explaining a few words to Xiao Gu, he let Xiao Gu drive away.

As soon as Xiao Gu left, Liang Jian looked at the time, there were still twenty minutes. Time is tight, and although Liang Jian is embarrassed, he can't care so much. So, I immediately flagged down a taxi and went straight to the teahouse where I had made an appointment to meet.

Liang Jian arrived at the teahouse at the right time, and was just about to call Hu Xiaoying, but Hu Xiaoying's text message came in first. She said in the 'Spring Come' box.

Liang Jian asked the waiter, and the waiter led him to the door of the box, and when he pushed the door, Liang Jian looked at it, and couldn't help but feel a stagnation in his heart. Director Yu is also there.

Liang Jian suddenly felt a little angry. Hu Xiaoying has never been a woman with low emotional intelligence, otherwise she would not have been able to climb to the position of Minister of Propaganda in Jiangzhong Province, it is impossible for her not to know Liang Jian's feelings for her, but she always appears in front of him with this man, what does it mean? Even if she wanted to tell him that she was already famous, she didn't need to announce it to him in such a hurry, right?

Liang Jian's anger actually comes from humiliation. However, there is another voice in his heart telling him that how Hu Xiaoying chooses and how to do it is her freedom. Although he married Xiang Jin at the beginning, there was a reason for her, but after all, he is now a husband with two children, what position does he have to accuse her?

Hu Xiaoying and Director Yu had already looked at him, and Liang Jian immediately adjusted his mentality and walked in.

Liang Jian was in a mess, and there was a lot of mud on his shoes and trouser legs, and Director Yu and Hu Xiaoying frowned when they saw him like this. Hu Xiaoying asked, "What's wrong with you?" Is something wrong? ”

When she spoke, the nervousness and eagerness that inadvertently flowed from her eyes made Liang Jian feel slightly distracted. But, only for a moment. He quickly calmed down and calmly replied, "It's okay." With that, he sat opposite Hu Xiaoying, then raised his eyes to look at Director Yu, and said, "I didn't expect Director Yu to be free tonight!" ”

When Director Yu faced Liang Jian, he always had a cold face, and when he heard Liang Jian's mocking words, he raised his eyebrows and replied: "Director Liang is not an ordinary person, even if I am not free, I will come, otherwise how can we show that we attach importance to Director Liang and Mayor Cai!" ”

Director Yu is telling Liang Jian, don't think I'm giving you face, I'm giving Cai Gen face.

Liang Jian was angry, but because of the affairs of the world and Hu Xiaoying, he could only endure it. With a smile, he looked away, ignored him, looked at Hu Xiaoying, and said, "Since Director Yu is also here, then I won't say anything else, let's go straight to the point!" ”

There was a moment of strangeness in Hu Xiaoying's eyes, but she quickly took over: "If you want to talk about the three conditions, then I don't think you need to say it." The bottom line of the world is these three conditions, and apart from these three conditions, everything else is easy to talk about. ”

Hu Xiaoying sealed Liang Jian's mouth with a word. When he came to his lips, he choked in his throat, and it was extremely uncomfortable. Liang Jian looked at Hu Xiaoying, was silent for a while, and then swallowed the sentence back, he turned his head to look at Director Yu, and then asked Hu Xiaoying: "Is there really no room for maneuver?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Director Yu suddenly sneered and said, "The words have been said clearly, Director Liang can't understand it?" ”

"I'm asking Director Hu, not Director Yu." Liang Jian himself had an opinion about him, and he was not polite, so Liang Jian naturally lowered his face and was not polite.

Director Yu snorted and said, "You have pestered Sister Hu on this issue three times and twice, don't you just want to let Sister Hu relax with your previous affection?" ”

Liang Jian had to admit that he did have this idea, but this idea was based on Liang Jian's belief that the three conditions of the world were a bit inch-inch, and he felt that Hu Xiaoying was a reasonable person and should not blindly help the world take advantage of the government in this matter. However, there is one thing that Liang Jian has never realized well. That is, Hu Xiaoying is now a global person. She gets the salary given by Universal, so she naturally has to work for Universal.

Director Yu broke this point, and Liang Jian was a little embarrassed on his face.

Hu Xiaoying didn't seem to want to embarrass Liang Jian too much, so she turned her head to look at Director Yu and said, "Yu Qin, you talk too much." ”

Yu Qin frowned, his face showing some displeasure, but he still kept his mouth shut. Hu Xiaoying looked at Liang Jian again, his eyes swept over Liang Jian's face, then drooped, and said lightly: "Yu Qin has a direct personality and is not very good at talking. Director Liang, don't take it to heart. I know that you are also ordered by others, and you can't help it. However, I really can't go back to those three conditions. At this point, she paused suddenly, and then said, "If you have other requirements, I can consider them." ”

Liang Jian didn't hear it at first, but he inadvertently saw Yu Qin's brows furrowed. Liang Jian's mind suddenly lit up, and his heart suddenly brightened.

Yu Qin is here, and he is destined to not be able to say anything today. Liang Jian didn't sit for long before leaving first. Sure enough, as soon as he arrived at the hotel, before he entered the room, Hu Xiaoying's text message came.

"Where are you now? Is it convenient? ”

Liang Jian pressed a little excited and replied, "I just arrived at the hotel." ”

"Give me the spot, I'll come over." Hu Xiaoying quickly replied to Liang Jian.

Liang Jian sent the hotel location and room number to Hu Xiaoying. When he got to the room, he quickly took a shower, cleaned up his clothes a little, and put them back on, although it was still a little dirty, but it didn't look so embarrassed.

Not long after picking up, Hu Xiaoying came.

Liang Jian made her a glass of water, and the two sat down face-to-face on the sofa. As soon as they sat down, the two looked at each other, and the atmosphere was a little different.

Liang Jian hurriedly looked away, coughed, and woke himself up. Then, ask: "Is that Yu Qin really your boyfriend?" ”

Liang Jian asked this because he felt that the relationship between Hu Xiaoying and Yu Qin was a little strange when he was in the teahouse before, and he didn't have any other ideas, but as soon as the words came out, the taste was a little different.

As soon as Hu Xiaoying raised his eyes, Liang Jian suddenly felt embarrassed on his face.

Hu Xiaoying smiled and said, "I thought you would have seen it a long time ago, but I didn't expect it to happen." ”

Although there was no positive answer to this, it could be regarded as admitting that Yu Qin was not her boyfriend, although Liang Jian felt a little strange between the two and had some doubts in his heart, but when he heard Hu Xiaoying say this, he couldn't help frowning. At that time, she and Yu Qin were boyfriend and girlfriend, and she said it herself, and today she said it herself, and Yu Qin was not present.

Liang Jian felt that when he met Hu Xiaoying this time, Hu Xiaoying was different from before. The previous Hu Xiaoying, at least in front of him, was still real. Although she also has a lot of secrets, at least she won't lie to him, at most she won't tell him.

But this time it's different. Liang Jian didn't know if this was a deception. If it is deception, then what is the purpose of deception? Liang Jian felt that he had nothing to fool Hu Xiaoying, or rather, with him, she didn't need to deceive at all.

Liang Jian looked at her and once again felt Hu Xiaoying's strangeness. Suddenly, Liang Jian didn't know what to say.

Hu Xiaoying also seemed to feel the change in Liang Jian's mood, the smile on his face was put away, and after pursing his lips and being silent for a while, he suddenly said: "There are many things, I can't explain to you." ”

Liang Jian looked up at her, hesitated for a moment, and replied, "You don't have to explain it to me. It's your freedom, and I don't have the right to bind you to what you do. ”

Hu Xiaoying wanted to defend herself, but Liang Jian raised his hand to signal that she didn't need to say anything more. Hu Xiaoying's expression suddenly became sad, Liang Jian turned his gaze away, and diverted the topic: "You came here for the world's affairs, right?" ”

Seeing that Liang Jian didn't want to say more, Hu Xiaoying took a deep breath, put away the thoughts of those children's lovers, and became calm. She replied, "Yes." ”

Liang Jian felt that it was not interesting for him and Hu Xiaoying to tug of war with Hu Xiaoying about the world. Therefore, he no longer followed Qu Wei's meaning, and directly revealed the bottom line on his side.

After Hu Xiaoying heard this, she muttered for a while, but shook her head. Liang Jian couldn't help frowning when he saw her shaking his head, and his heart was a little more angry. In Liang Jian's opinion, except for the first one, which is barely reasonable, the other two are excessive, especially the third one. Liang Jian believes that it is already a big concession for his side to give up the second article, but Hu Xiaoying's side will not give in one step, which is a bit excessive. What's more, the root of this matter is because of the fact that Universal said that he was untrustworthy and did not do the six things he promised at the beginning, so that now he wants the government to help them wipe their butts. It's just a matter of wiping your ass, but Universal has also set up a shelf. This is what makes Liang Jian feel particularly angry. Of course, he also understands that this matter may not be something that Hu Xiaoying can make alone. Even if Liang Jian was angry at her, it would not help, but would hurt the relationship between the two of them.

Liang Jian had no choice but to suppress his anger again, and asked Hu Xiaoying again: "Then what do you mean over there?" Although he didn't get angry, he couldn't help but show a trace of impatience in his tone.

Hu Xiaoying naturally noticed it. But she was more mature than Liang Jian, the expression on her face did not change, and she still calmly answered Liang Jian's question.

She told Liang Jian that it is not impossible to get the world to make concessions on these three conditions. However, Cai Gen has to come forward to talk to her. She looked at Liang Jian as she spoke, and then said, "There are some things that you can't decide." ”

The meaning of this is obvious.

Although Liang Jian knew that Hu Xiaoying only wanted to express this fact when he said this, and there was no other meaning of belittling or mocking, he was still a little hurt in his heart. Because it was not an ordinary person who said this, but her Hu Xiaoying.
