After Fan Zheng returned to Jingtian, he made a detailed report to Cheng Qian about the situation in Jibei County, and Cheng Qian was very interested in it, because he also had the idea of investing in tourism, but because he had not yet invested and had no relevant experience, he still wanted to hear the ideas of other people in the company, so he held a meeting.

At the meeting, each participating investment manager expressed their opinions, and the final result was that the vast majority of people believed that tourism in the far north county was of investment value in the long run.

He didn't say anything before the meeting, and Fan Zheng followed him into the office after the meeting.

"Can I vote?" Fan Zheng asked. No matter how it is discussed, it is Cheng Qian who makes the final decision, and Fan Zheng knows this very well.

Cheng Qian looked at the information in his hand and said: "Guanyin Temple Tourist Area, Snow Country Ski Resort, Northern Lights Tourist Resort, these three projects are good, but we can't invest in all three projects, we have no experience, the first time to do it is still to be safe, at most we can only vote for one." ”

Fan Zheng and Cheng Qian have similar ideas, he also thinks that it is impossible to invest in all three projects, in addition to having no experience, the funds are not allowed, after all, they have also invested in many other projects. Fan Zheng then asked, "Then which do you think is the right one for us to vote for?" ”

"Is this ......" Cheng Qian was still a little undecided.

"Do you know who planned these three scenic spots?" Fan Zheng asked again.

"Which famous artist is it?"

"It's not a famous person, you know this person."

"I know? Who? Cheng Qian was intrigued by Fan Zheng's words.

"Forget it, I'd better stop talking about it, he didn't want you to know about it." Fan Zheng deliberately sold Guanzi.

"Tell me, who the hell is it?" Cheng Qian urged with a straight face.

Fan Zheng was afraid that Cheng Qian would be really angry, so he didn't dare to hang Cheng Qian's appetite anymore, and said, "Xue Fei." ”

Fan Zheng still decided to tell Cheng Qian about Xue Fei, the reason why he did this was mainly because even if Cheng Qian knew, he would not change the status quo. Xue Fei is now a civil servant, and no matter what reason he left Cheng Qian in the first place, it is impossible for him to come back. And Cheng Qian knew Xue Fei's whereabouts, and his heart was steady, otherwise he would never forget it.

In addition, Fan Zheng is also worried that if the company really invests in Jibei County, it is impossible for Cheng Qian not to go to Jibei County to see it in person, if he sees Xue Fei, Cheng Qian will definitely blame him for concealing it, and his trust in him will probably be greatly reduced.

"Xue Fei?" Cheng Qian stood up, extremely shocked, he wondered if his ears had misheard, "You mean that Xue Fei we know?" ”

"Hmm. He is now the deputy director of the Far North County Tourism Bureau. ”

"Deputy Director of the Tourism Bureau?" It was so sudden that Cheng Qian's mind couldn't turn for a while, "Tell me in detail what happened." ”

It was really no coincidence that Fan Zheng went to Jibei County to investigate, but Cheng Jue called him and told him that Xue Fei was the deputy director of the Jibei County Tourism Bureau, and now Jibei County was engaged in tourism development, so he could go over and take a look, and if there was a suitable project, he would invest a little, which could be regarded as helping Xue Fei, but told him not to tell Cheng Qian that he said it.

Fan Zheng didn't believe it at first, but when he thought that he usually didn't have much contact with Cheng Jue, it was unlikely that Cheng Jue would make a special trip to call him to joke, so he believed Cheng Jue's words, so he took a few of his men to Jibei County, and then there was a matter of pretending to meet Xue Fei in Hao Dayu's office.

After Fan Zheng told Cheng Qian all the things he saw before and after Xue Fei met Xue Fei, as well as Xue Fei telling him about the civil service examination, Cheng Qian said: "In this way, Xue Fei and Cheng Jue have always been in contact." ”

"It should be. I heard Xue Fei say that before he went to Jibei County, he worked in Bingcheng for half a year, didn't Cheng Jue also work in Bingcheng, I think they should have had contact when they were in Bingcheng. ”

"This Cheng Jue is really good, he never mentioned a word to me, and now he actually called you and asked you to investigate, and hid it from me, what do you think of him?" Cheng Qian was a little angry with Cheng Jue.

"I don't think Cheng Jue doesn't want to say it, it should be Xue Fei who doesn't let him say it."

"When you saw Xue Fei this time, didn't you ask him why he didn't say goodbye?" Although Xue Fei sent a message when he left, it didn't seem that Cheng Qian told him in person, even if he didn't say goodbye, he had always been puzzled by Xue Fei's departure, and he couldn't guess why at all.

"When I asked, he said that there was an urgent matter at home, but I felt like he had something unspeakable." Fan Zheng didn't believe that Xue Fei left because of something at home, there must be some other reason.

Cheng Qian sat on the chair and was silent for a while, then said: "I've been a little tired lately, and I want to go out for a walk and rest, where do you say it's appropriate to go?" ”

Cheng Qian looked at Fan Zheng, Fan Zheng understood: "Let's go to the extreme north county to have a look, the scenery is very good, just investigate it casually, and get a quasi-idea for investment." ”

Cheng Qian nodded, "Go book a ticket and leave tomorrow." ”

Since there was no direct flight from Jingtian to Anling, Cheng Qian and Fan Zheng took people to Bingcheng by early morning flight the next day, then transferred from Bingcheng to Anling, and finally took a train to Jibei County.

In addition to going abroad, it has never taken such a long time to travel before the journey, but when he arrived in Jibei County, looked up, there were blue sky and white clouds everywhere he could see, and he was breathing fresher air than Jingtian, he was still in a good mood.

Fan Zheng called Xue Fei before he left the train station, saying that he had come over to inspect again, and if there was no problem this time, the investment could basically be determined. As for the accompanying trip and Cheng Qian, Fan Zheng did not mention anything.

Xue Fei was very happy to receive the call, Fan Zheng came back so soon, he estimated that he was about to vote, and after hanging up the phone, he called Chang Liang to pick up people at the train station.

When he arrived at the train station, when he saw a familiar and scared figure next to Fan Zheng who came out of the station, Xue Fei's mind was blank, and his eyes were so straight and straight until Fan Zheng and Cheng Qian walked in front of him, and Chang Liang gently pulled the corner of Xue Fei's clothes with his hand, and Xue Fei came back to his senses.

Xue Fei's first reaction was to look at Fan Zheng, Fan Zheng didn't look at him, his eyes looked elsewhere, obviously a little embarrassed to face him.

Since leaving Jingtian, Xue Fei has thought that one day he may meet Cheng Qian again, and has imagined countless times what it will be like to meet him again, and he has even dreamed of it, and has been silently preparing for it. However, at that time, a year and a half later, in the face of the sudden Cheng Qian, Xue Fei found that his heart was extremely flustered, and he was still not really ready to face Cheng Qian. Although on the surface he seems to be calm, in fact, the inner waves are tumbling, and he can't really handle it calmly. The stone of guilt that had been pressing on his heart undoubtedly became heavier after Cheng Qian appeared, and he was about to lose his breath.

"Hello Mr. Cheng." Xue Fei smiled and stretched out his hand and said.

Cheng Qian was expressionless, he didn't shake hands with Xue Fei, and walked past Xue Fei with his legs.

Cheng Qian wanted to say that he was not angry with Xue Fei, but in addition to being angry, he didn't shake hands with Xue Fei because he was awkward. In the past, Xue Fei drove for him, and he was like a younger brother by his side. Now that Xue Fei has become the deputy director of the Tourism Bureau, he actually wants to shake hands with him like a stranger when he meets him, and Cheng Qian can't accept it.

Fan Zheng glanced at Xue Fei and hurriedly chased after him.

Chang Liang didn't know what was going on, he didn't know Cheng Qian, seeing that Cheng Qian's shelf was so big, he felt a little unhappy, "Who is that person?" ”

"Their boss." Xue Fei also chased after him after speaking. Xue Fei knew that Cheng Qian was angry with him, but Cheng Qian had already come, and he had to face it, otherwise he would never be able to overcome this hurdle in his heart.

"Shall we take a break or go around?" Fan Zheng asked.

"Let's take a break and talk about it in the afternoon." Although he came from Anling to sit in a sleeper, Cheng Qian still felt a little tired, after all, the conditions of the sleeper could not be compared with the bed at home, and it was not very comfortable to lie down.

After finding a hotel to check in, Xue Fei didn't look for him when he knew that he was going to rest before Cheng. At noon, Xue Fei arranged a table of meals in Ruchun Hotel, in addition to Chang Liang, Xue Fei also called Liu Yueyue over, Liu Yueyue is the director of the Tourism Bureau, don't call her on this occasion, Xue Fei is afraid that she will be picky.

After coming to Homeinn Restaurant a few days ago, he didn't plan to eat with everyone, but said that he wanted to eat alone with Xue Fei. Xue Fei obviously couldn't refuse, so he had to open another table, and then let Liu Yueyue and Chang Liang accompany Fan Zheng and them to eat together.

Liu Yueyue was somewhat dissatisfied with this, she thought that Cheng Qian's shelf was too big, and she was also a bureau chief, so she didn't eat with her when she met for the first time, but she wanted to eat alone with Xue Fei, so she didn't take her seriously. But dissatisfaction is dissatisfaction, who let Cheng Qian be the God of Wealth, and Xue Fei invited it, Liu Yueyue had to endure it.

At noon, there was no longer a private room, so Xue Fei had to sit down with Cheng Qian in a corner of the hall.

"Mr. Cheng is sorry, the conditions in our small county are average, and the restaurant is not very high-end, so I can't invite you to a better place to eat, please don't be surprised." Xue Fei wanted to be polite to Cheng Qian, but Cheng Qian didn't appreciate it at all.

"It's different when I become the director, not only did I start calling me Mr. Cheng, but I was also full of clichés when I spoke. It seems that you are no longer the Xue Fei I knew in the past. Cheng Qian's face was tight, and there was a sense of dissatisfaction in and out of his words.

"I ...... I'm sorry brother, don't think about it, I don't mean anything else, you are here to inspect the investment, I came to receive you as a representative of the tourism bureau, I think it may be more formal to say this, if you don't like it, I'll be casual. "When Xue Fei used to be a driver with Cheng Qian, Xue Fei would only call Cheng Qian as Mr. Cheng in front of outsiders, otherwise he would be called Brother Qian.

"You're not sorry for me, you seem to be doing better now than you were when you were around me, are you?"

Xue Fei didn't speak, picked up the wine bottle and tilted his head to dry a whole bottle of beer. Putting down the wine bottle, he wiped his mouth and said, "Brother ex, I know that you blame me for not greeting you in person when I left Jingtian, whether you forgive me or not, I will forgive you after I drink this bottle of wine." You know what kind of person I, Xue Fei, I am still the same person, I haven't changed in the past, I haven't changed now, and I won't change in the future. Actually, I don't want to leave Jingtian and leave your side, but it's just ......"

Cheng Qian raised his hand and motioned for Xue Fei to stop, don't say any more. He said: "Okay, the past has passed, don't think that I came to Extreme North County to ask you about the guilt, I am not so idle." I don't want to know why you left, you just need to know why. I just want to ask you a word, you have been by my side for two years, is there anything I can't do with you? ”

Xue Fei shook his head and said with great certainty: "No, absolutely not." ”

Cheng Qian filled his wine glass, picked up the wine glass and said, "That's it, we will still be buddies in the future." After speaking, Cheng Qian drank all the wine in the cup.

The moment he saw Xue Fei drinking, Cheng Qian's anger had already disappeared. Cheng Qian knew Xue Fei, he knew that Xue Fei was a person who would be very thoughtful in his life and work, Xue Fei could say goodbye without saying goodbye, there must be a reason for him not to say goodbye, and he really didn't want to know what it was, just like he said, he didn't come to Jibei County to ask for guilt.

Cheng Qian came to Jibei County, in addition to inspecting investment, he also wanted to see Xue Fei. For a person who has been with him for two years, like his own brother, suddenly left, and there was no news, Cheng Qian must have felt uncomfortable, he was very worried that he had done something wrong with Xue Fei, and at the same time, he was also afraid that Xue Fei would do something, and now seeing that Xue Fei was fine, his heart that had been hanging for a year and a half was completely down-to-earth.

Xue Fei listened to Cheng Qian's words, and the stone in his heart seemed to fall to the ground in an instant, and he suddenly felt a sense of relief. The guilt of Cheng Qian may never be indelible and unforgettable, but being able to sit down with Cheng Qian again and drink and regain the brotherhood can be regarded as a kind of farewell to the past year and a half for him, and this kind of goodbye, he hopes that it will be an eternal end to that incident.

I haven't seen you for a long time, the two people who opened their hearts pushed the cup and changed the lamp, and the drunk Sensei was more happy, and he originally planned to go out for a walk in the afternoon, but because the two of them were drunk, they could only cancel it, and they would talk about it tomorrow.

Early the next morning, when Xue Fei was about to go to the hotel to find Cheng Qian for breakfast, and then take him to think about it, Xue Fei received a call from Pan Qi, who said that he would get off the train immediately and asked Xue Fei to pick him up at the train station.

Hanging up the phone, Xue Fei was a little embarrassed, he didn't expect Pan Qi to come over at this time, and he didn't call him beforehand.

It's obviously a good thing for Pan Qi to come over, but Cheng Qian and Fan Zheng are also there, Xue Fei definitely can't take care of both sides at the same time, he is worried that accompanying one party will make the other party unhappy, what should he do?

After thinking about it, Xue Fei didn't come up with a reason. After looking at the time, Xue Fei decided to go to the train station to pick up Pan Qi first, after all, He Cheng had already eaten yesterday, and Pan Qi came over as an investor for the first time this time, so it was not appropriate for him not to pick up at the train station. As for who to accompany today, Xue Fei plans to talk about it after receiving Pan Qi.
