may feel that the relationship with Xue Fei has reached a certain level, and the dinner at night Long Junting was no longer arranged in a luxurious diamond hotel, but in a relatively ordinary five-star hotel.

When Xue Fei arrived, Long Junting and Long Yi's father and son had already arrived.

Long Yi is worthy of being the son of Long Junting, the two of them look almost identical, the only difference is that Long Yi has hair, and Long Junting can't even afford to support the local support center.

"Hello Uncle Xie, my name is Long Yi, you are so handsome." Long said sweetly.

"Hello, you're not lazy." Long Yi is twenty-four years old this year, Xue Fei is not a few years older than him, and it feels quite awkward to hear Long Yi call him uncle.

"My dad said you were only in your early thirties and I didn't believe it, but I didn't know it was true until I saw you in person. You have reached the deputy department level at such a young age, which is my motivation and example to move forward, I will learn more from you in the future, and I hope you can teach me more. ”

"Haha, Brother Long, Long Yi must be up to you if you can talk like this." Xue Fei looked at Long Junting and said with a smile.

"It's really not up to me, he's born to be able to speak, but he doesn't need it right a lot of the time." Long Junting looked at Long Yi and said solemnly: "Your Uncle Xie is the director of the county tourism bureau at your age, and you have been a civil servant for two years before you are a section member." I have to learn from your Uncle Xie in the future, you know? ”

"I know, as long as Uncle Xie doesn't bother me, I promise to ask Uncle Xie for advice and study more in the future." Long Yi said with a smile.

The two of them chatted while eating, during which Long Yi asked Xue Fei a lot of questions such as how to be a good official, which was too difficult to answer. Although things in officialdom are strictly speaking, there are rules to follow, but more attention is paid to improvisation, the same thing, different people will have different ways to deal with the same thing, this is really impossible to teach. Therefore, Xue Fei could only say some high-sounding words, mainly encouraging.

Long Yi seems to be a self-acquaintance, although it is the first time to meet Xue Fei, there is no strangeness in chatting with Xue Fei, Xue Fei doesn't like him because he doesn't know him very well, but he doesn't hate it, because he finds this kid quite interesting to talk about.

It was convenient for Long Junting to go out, and Long Yi asked mysteriously, "Uncle Xie, do you usually surf the Internet?" ”

"Oh, what's wrong?" Xue Fei looked at Long Yi, not knowing what he wanted to do.

"So do you go online and chat? It's QQ. ”

"Don't talk, I don't even have a QQ number." Xue Fei is telling the truth, there are a lot of things in normal times, and he has no time to chat online, and he is not interested in chatting online.

"Do you think it's reliable to fall in love online?"

"What, you're dating online?"

"Well, my parents don't know about this, so I'll tell you alone, don't tell my dad." Long Yi reminded.

"I won't say that. But you're an adult, it's normal to be in love, and your parents shouldn't object. Xue Fei didn't expect Long Yi to be in an online relationship, and he would tell him, it seems that he really doesn't treat him as an outsider, this kid is a bit interesting.

"They don't object to normal love, they still support it. Even if they are online dating, they definitely don't agree, and if I have visited them before, they all said that they don't like online dating. What do you think I should do? Long Yi looked very distressed.

"How long have you known each other? Have you met? ”

"I've known her for almost two years, she is Jingtian, and we haven't met yet, but I want to meet her, and we've seen each other's photos. I really like her. ”

"If you can, there's nothing wrong with seeing each other, but you have to ensure your personal safety in advance, after all, looking at photos is not the same as seeing me, and the society is chaotic, everyone has it, and it's hard to guarantee that the other party is not a bad person."

"Well, I know that."

When the two of them were chatting, the door opened, Xue Fei and Long Yi both thought that Long Junting was back, but they didn't expect that in addition to Long Junting, there were three other people, seeing them, Xue Fei was a little surprised.

Cao Bangxian, Bingcheng is a member of the Party Committee and deputy director of the Public Security Bureau, in charge of the traffic police detachment and the anti-drug detachment; Ming Qizhi, member of the Party Committee and Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission of the Bingcheng Public Security Bureau, in charge of the police inspector detachment and the audit office; Cheng Ping, member of the Party Committee of the Bingcheng Public Security Bureau, director of the political/governance department, is in charge of the work of the public security cadre school, the party committee and trade union of the organ, and the Youth League Committee.

"Director Xue."

The three of them greeted Xue Fei, Xue Fei stood up and responded with a smile, and then cast a puzzled look at Long Junting.

Long Junting understood Xue Fei's puzzlement, so he said: "I met Director Cao in the bathroom, and when I learned that Secretary Ming and Director Guan were also in the hotel, I went over to say hello. After they knew that Director Xue was also in the hotel, they followed me over and said that they wanted to toast Director Xue. ”

"That's right, you didn't bother Director Xue, did you?" Cao Bangxian asked.

"No, what's the bother, if it's convenient for the three of you, just sit down and eat together." Xue Fei gave way.

"No, forget it today, let's do it another day." Ming Qizhi looked at Cao Bangxian and said with justice.

"Yes, let's make an appointment another day, let's make an appointment at another place then, and we will come over to pay tribute to Director Xue for a glass of wine, you see, we all brought our own cups." Justiceping said.

"Okay, that's fine, I'll treat you another day." Xue Fei picked up the wine bottle and poured his glass full of wine, raised the wine glass and touched it with the four of them, and then took a sip.

After drinking, the three of them took their leave.

"Brother, you don't blame me for bringing them here, do you?" Long Junting asked concernedly.

Long Junting could actually not do this at all, he didn't say it, Cao Bangxian and the three of them wouldn't know that Xue Fei was also in the hotel. The reason why he said it was because he felt that it was necessary to have a good relationship with the members of the Party Committee of other bureaus, in the past, they were working separately and did not have a bond that could be glued to each other, but now with Xue Fei and this bond, why should they continue to scatter the sand?

He boldly guessed that Xue Fei must also want to have a good relationship with the members of the other bureau party committees, not long after Xue Fei arrived in the bureau, as the executive deputy director, he wanted to get support in his future work, and if he couldn't reach Peng Changjiang, he definitely wanted to get closer to other people below, such as getting closer to him. And he is also willing to be this matchmaker, which can not only bring him closer to Xue Fei, but also reflect the value of his existence.

Long Junting guessed right, Xue Fei really wanted to have a good relationship with other party committee members in the bureau, in Xue Fei's opinion, this is not only imperative, but also a rare opportunity, since Peng Changjiang looked up at the sky and was unwilling to get close to these people below, then he would do it, this is a process of capital accumulation, and when he gathers all these people around him, he will not only be able to work more conveniently and smoothly, once he calls Peng Changjiang to the board, he will also be more confident.

"Of course not, everyone is a colleague, and being closer to each other is only good, not bad. Brother Long, remember to remind me, find a time in a few days, I have to have a table of dinner, and the words are all spoken, and I can't break my promise. Xue Fei said with a smile.

"Okay, I'll remind you then." After listening to Xue Fei's words, Long Junting knew that he had guessed correctly.

On the weekend, Xue Fei took He Miao to Nangong Mansion to see the house.

Before going, Xue Fei called Dai Wangchun, and Dai Wangchun said that he was not in Bingcheng, but he asked Xue Fei to find a manager surnamed Liu after he went over.

When he arrived at the sales office of Nangong Mansion, after Xue Fei found the manager surnamed Liu, Manager Liu said that Dai Wangchun had already explained to him, and then took Xue Fei and He Miao to see the villa.

The villas in Nangong Mansion are not in the same area as the high-rise residences, and the villas are also divided into three areas: stacked villas, townhouses and single-family villas.

Xue Fei didn't tell He Miao that he wanted to buy a villa, but just said that he was going to see the house, so when he looked at the townhouse, He Miao pulled the corner of Xue Fei's clothes, and said in sign language that he didn't buy a villa, so don't look at it. Xue Fei smiled and said that he was here anyway, so let's take a look.

After looking at all the villas, Xue Fei fell in love with a finely decorated single-family villa with two floors above ground and one floor at the bottom, with a total area of 360 square meters, and asked He Miao how he felt.

"The house is good, the layout is also very reasonable, but it is too expensive, it has to be millions, and we can't afford it." He Miao said.

Xue Fei looked at Manager Liu and asked, "If I buy that 36-square-meter villa, how will the price be calculated?" ”

"Mr. Dai explained that if you buy it, the basement will be given away for free, and the above-ground area will be converted into seven." Manager Liu said.

"Okay, then I want it, I'll come over tomorrow to pay the money and go through the formalities." Xue Fei felt that the geographical location was good, the house was built very well, and the decoration was also arbitrary, so there was no need to look at it over and over again, just set it directly.

When He Miao heard that Xue Fei wanted to buy a villa, he hurriedly pulled Xue Fei aside, frowned and asked, "Are you sure you want to buy a villa?" ”

Xue Fei nodded and said, "Yes, what's wrong?" ”

"How do you have so much money?"

"There is one thing I haven't told you, Zhao Ritian and I have done some business outside, but don't worry, it's all reasonable and legal business, otherwise how do you think I have the money to buy a Grand Cherokee." Xue Fei couldn't tell He Miao the truth, he could only tell white lies.

"What you said is true?"

"Of course it's true, if you don't believe it, you can ask Zhao Ritian." What Xue Fei said was like the real thing.

He Miao's face sank, and she raised her legs and left, Xue Fei hurriedly chased after her and grabbed her, and asked, "What's wrong, daughter-in-law, are you angry?" ”

"I'm angry, you didn't tell me when you were doing business outside, did you really take me as your daughter-in-law?" He Miao asked angrily.

"Hehe, you are my daughter-in-law, what should you be. I didn't tell you, I didn't want to hide it from you all the time, but I wanted to surprise you, and this surprise is to give you a home. In fact, I especially want to hand over the keys directly to you after buying a house, so that there will be a surprise effect. But I want to put the house in your name, and I can't do it if you don't come, so I brought you over to see the house together. Xue Fei took He Miao's hands and said, "Daughter-in-law, don't be angry, can't I hand over all the money I earn to you for safekeeping in the future?" ”

"And how much money do you make now?" Xue Fei just could speak, and after He Miao heard it, the anger in his stomach immediately disappeared.

"Buy the villa I just mentioned, I guess there is still a little left." Xue Fei didn't dare to say too much about money.

"Then don't buy a villa, just buy a house that you can live in, and there will be more places to use money in the future." For example, after having a child, I heard that raising a child is very expensive. He Miao said seriously.

"The usual expenses, including the problem of raising children, are here, so you don't have to worry about them. People like us don't live in villas to show off their grandeur, but to better protect our privacy and better protect the quality of life. If we really live in an ordinary building, neighbors decorate, quarrel, take the elevator and other things, will greatly reduce our living standards, since we can afford to live in a better house, why don't we live? You're right? ”

He Miao thought about it carefully and thought that what Xue Fei said was quite reasonable, so he didn't object to buying a villa anymore. However, she is still very concerned about the issue of money: "You have to hand over all the money you earn in the future, and you are usually only allowed to keep pocket money in your pocket, you know?" ”

Xue Fei saluted He Miao and said, "All listen to your daughter-in-law." ”

He Miao asked Xue Fei to pay money, not because of how much she liked money, but because she felt that men should not have so much money in their pockets, especially a man as good as Xue Fei, who is easy to learn if he has no money, and he has to pay it back? She had to nip the insecurity in the cradle.

And Xue Fei was also willing to give some of the money to He Miao, he felt that as long as He Miao could be steadfast in his heart.

When he was leaving, Xue Fei secretly sent a message to Zhao Ritian on his mobile phone, telling Zhao Ritian that if He Miao asked if the two of them were doing business together, he must answer that he did, don't miss it.

Coming out of Nangong Mansion, when Xue Fei and He Miao got into the car, Ling Ziyue happened to follow the sales lady out of the sales office, and when she saw Xue Fei, she was stunned for a moment, and after Xue Fei and He Miao left, she pointed to Manager Liu and asked the sales lady: "Who is that?" ”

The sales lady said: "He is the manager of our sales office. ”

Ling Ziyue's mind turned, and she walked towards Manager Liu: "Hello Manager Liu." ”

Manager Liu replied with a smile: "Hello." ”

The sales lady on the side said: "Manager Liu, this lady was introduced by Mr. He and wants to see our villa." ”

Ling Ziyue said: "Manager Liu, if you are not busy, you can take me to see." ”

Manager Liu happily agreed, and took Ling Ziyue to see the villa.

On the way, Ling Ziyue asked, "The two people that Manager Liu just sent away also came to see the house?" ”

"Yes, they are also looking at the villa, it has been decided, and they will come and pay tomorrow." Manager Liu said.

Ling Ziyue's eyes rolled and asked, "Is there anything else near the villa they have set that hasn't been sold?" ”

"Yes, there are three detached houses."

"Then you can take me to see it."
