Chapter 166
The afternoon sun was shining on the ground of the pavilion, warm and comfortable, Chen Xing and Zhang Ningning walked to the pavilion by the small pool and sat down, the small stone bench was very comfortable, holding Zhang Ningning's hand, Chen Xing was reluctant to let go for a moment, maybe what happened today was the most memorable day in his life for Chen Xing, he would never have dreamed that he would confess to Zhang Ningning in just one day, and then it was a marriage proposal, as if it was completed in the electric light.
Life is always so fucked up that no one can predict what will happen in the next second. Of course, at this moment, for Chen Xing, life is not a fuck, but so beautiful and full of beautiful vision, Chen Xing fantasizes about a better life in the future, with such a proud woman as Zhang Ningning, for any man, he will laugh when he dreams.
"I still have to go home to discuss with my family about marriage, after all, this is a lifelong event, the ancients also paid attention to the words of a parent's matchmaker, although it is not fashionable today, but I have to discuss it with my parents and elders, this is the least respect for them." Zhang Ningning's small hand gently scratched Chen Xing's palm and looked at Chen Xing gently.
"That's for sure, if you don't discuss such a major event as marriage with your elders, it must be unreasonable, your parents are such a pearl in your palm, if you don't discuss it with them, then they don't know what it will be like to be angry." Chen Xing said with a smile, Zhang Ningning's family is a wealthy family, Chen Xingke didn't dare to kidnap the other party like this, the Zhang family could blow him to a hundred and eight thousand miles away with a random sneeze.
"My family is more prominent than your previous family, are you afraid?" Zhang Ningning smiled playfully at Chen Xing, blinking with a pair of bright talking eyes.
"Don't be afraid, it's a big deal or be swept away." Chen Xing smiled faintly and held Zhang Ningning's hand a little tighter, "Zhang Ningning, this time, I won't let go no matter what, even if it's up the knife mountain and down the sea of fire." β
Zhang Ningning didn't know what kind of feeling she was at the moment, looking at Chen Xing's affectionate eyes, her tears almost fell, women, are emotional animals, sometimes, the string in the depths of the heart is touched is a momentary thing, maybe it is a casual word said by a man, or an unintentional move, at this moment, the door in Zhang Ningning's heart is forever open for Chen Xing, gently snuggling in Chen Xing's arms, Zhang Ningning whispered like a dream, "If they sweep you out of the house, Then I'll roll up with you and get out. β
Listening to Zhang Ningning's words that seemed to be a joke, Chen Xing couldn't help laughing and said, "Your parents are just such a precious girl as you, if you roll up and get out, then they must not die of sadness, so you shouldn't do that, the wisest thing to do is to sit down and talk to your parents, pity the hearts of parents all over the world, no matter what the purpose is, parents will not harm their children, so children should also be more considerate and considerate of their parents." β
Chen Xing didn't take Zhang Ningning's words seriously in his heart, if the old lady of the Zhang family was here, I am afraid he would shake his head and smile bitterly, his precious granddaughter is a soft on the outside and strong on the inside, he can do it, if he really runs away from home, no one can stop him, the old lady Zhang can make a group of provincial and ministerial-level officials shudder in the high-level political arena, but once his little granddaughter loses her temper, the old lady Zhang has no way at all.
Chen Xing received a call from the city government at one o'clock, asking him to go to the mayor's office, and Zhang Ningning and the two were reluctant to separate, Chen Xing helplessly half-joking, "People can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes, a phone call from the top up, a little minion like me can only rush over quickly." β
Chen Xing didn't say that the current mayor of Haicheng City is the mother of his ex-girlfriend who used to sneer at him in the past, so many years have passed, and it doesn't make any sense to say it, he shared that past with Zhang Ningning just in the hope that Zhang Ningning could feel his sincerity and open his heart to each other, instead of spitting out bitterness like a resentful woman-type man, which makes people look down on him.
"Since it's official business, then you should go quickly, I will go back to Jiangcheng later, and I will come to see you in a few days." Zhang Ningning said understandingly, there was also reluctance in her eyes, after all, this was the moment when the two had just confirmed their relationship, and in private, they even finalized the major events of their lives.
"Ning Ning, don't go back at night, it's tiring to rush back and forth." Chen Xing couldn't help but say, he felt a little inappropriate when he said this, he asked a girl's house to stay overnight, which inevitably made people think about it.
"Staying at night? So where am I going to stay, it won't be your room, right? And then you don't want to do anything bad. Zhang Ningning looked at Chen Xing narrowly, his eyes full of smiles.
"Ahem, of course not, you see that I look like that kind of person, you can stay in a hotel, if you don't want to stay in a hotel, then live in my house, I still have empty rooms in my house, they are cleaned on weekdays, and they are very clean." Chen Xing smiled dryly, knowing that Zhang Ningning was joking with him, but Chen Xing couldn't stop being embarrassed, and he didn't know that he thought he was hungry and thirsty to this kind of Cheng dΓΉ, and he had just established a relationship with someone, so he was anxious to have a relationship with someone, the conscience of heaven and earth, Chen Xing from just now to now, even when Zhang Ningning even promised him a major event in his life, when he held that perfect body in his arms, he never had that kind of thought.
"How do I know if you're that kind of person?" Zhang Ningning smiled coquettishly, intent on arresting Chen Xing, but the common people didn't know that Chen Xing was because he was a thief, so he could only laugh for a while, his private life was really not so pure... said that he was not that kind of person, and he really put gold on his face, fortunately, Zhang Ningning was just joking, Chen Xing was weak for a while, and he didn't dare to answer, this silence is gold.
"I won't tease you, you can go quickly, it's important to get down to business." Zhang Ningning is empathetic, although she is reluctant, she does not force Chen Xing to let him go, with her identity, she shows it casually, not to mention that the mayor wants to find Chen Xing, even if the secretary of the municipal party committee wants to find it, she has to press it back, but Zhang Ningning is obviously not a person who likes to use power to suppress people, this is the biggest difference between her and some arrogant and domineering lawless descendants.
"Okay, I'll go first." Chen Xing nodded, glanced at Zhang Ningning, and stopped talking, he was still struggling with the question he just asked, whether Zhang Ningning would stay or not.
"I won't stay at night, I want to go back to Jiangcheng, and then go back to the capital, I have to discuss the matter with my family quickly, anyway, sooner or later, sooner or later, or be careful when my grandfather says that you will abduct his precious granddaughter silently, and then you will really be swept out of the house." Zhang Ningning carefully helped Chen Xing pull the placket, and he had the potential to be a good wife and mother.
Chen Xing was stunned when he heard this, and glanced at Zhang Ningning with emotion, the other party was thinking about the future of the two of them so quickly, and opened his mouth, Chen Xing didn't know what to say, the Zhang family was too prominent, I saw the governor Zhang Guohua last night, although Zhang Guohua did not show any objection, but after all, the Zhang family is a political family, and the marriage of children may not be able to make their own decisions, and even the department-level cadres of the Zhang family, who are only at the prefectural and municipal level, will use their daughter's marriage as a political bargaining chip to marry. What's more, the Zhang family, a big family that can dominate at the central level.
Although Chen Xing didn't know how huge the power of the Zhang family was, he also knew that there could only be one person in charge of the Zhang family, that is, the old lady Zhang, who was full of words, Zhang Guohua did not object, it did not mean that Zhang Ningning could pass the GuΓ² family.
"Ning Ning, I'll go with you, this kind of thing, I should face it with you." Chen Xing looked at Zhang Ningning firmly, at this time, he should be a man who should stand up bravely.
"Why, you really want to go with me to be swept away, the guards next to my grandfather are all loaded with guns." Zhang Ningning said with a smile, and then shook her head, "I don't need it this time, next time you go to visit as my boyfriend, just leave the affairs of my family to me to deal with, although I am only a daughter, but my status in the family is not low at all, don't underestimate my weight in my grandfather's mind." β
"But ......" Chen Xing was about to say something, Zhang Ningning's slender little hand still blocked his mouth, giving Chen Xing a reassuring look, Zhang Ningning's expression was indifferent, as the old lady of the Zhang family said, Zhang Ningning is soft on the outside and rigid on the inside, which is not bad at all.
Nodding his head, Chen Xing reluctantly agreed, Zhang Ningning's attitude was very resolute, Chen Xing couldn't say anything, he just hoped that everything would be smooth, this is a major event related to the lifelong happiness of the two of them, maybe it would be better to let Zhang Ningning go back and communicate with his family first, it is not appropriate for him to follow a piece of the past recklessly now, if you really want to encounter resistance, the two can face it together.
Subsequently, Zhang Ningning said that he wanted to go back and sit with Chen Xing's parents, and leave by himself later, without Chen Xing's send, but Zhang Ningning's insistence, Chen Xing could only take a car to the city government first, Mayor Zhao Yiping usually rarely called him to meet, and today I don't know if the sun is coming out of the west, the past things are knotted in the hearts of the two, when Zhao Yiping first came to Haicheng, except for the beginning of wanting to use Chen Xing to listen to Zhou Mingfang's every move before seeing Chen Xing, he usually doesn't want to take the initiative to see Chen Xing at all, And Chen Xing rarely comes to the city government to report his work, he has been there twice, Zhao Yiping is either not there, or he doesn't have time to see him, Chen Xing knows that the other party doesn't want to see him, and then he doesn't bother to be bored.
Chen Xing has not yet connected the matter with Wu An and Li Zhongmin, Yang Zhen went to his house in the morning to say that this matter met with great resistance, Chen Xing never imagined that after Yang Zhen was called back by a phone call, the wind direction of the whole thing has completely changed, Huang Kunming, secretary of the municipal party committee, has noticed this matter, and this is exactly what Chen Xing wants to see, once Huang Kunming intervenes in this matter, things should develop in the direction he predicted, Mayor Zhao Yiping can not be in a hurry, but after Yang Zhen came out of Huang Ping's office, But he was in a hurry to arrange people to bring Wu An back to investigate, and forgot to inform Chen Xing about this matter as soon as possible, otherwise Chen Xing would have been able to predict something related to it.
Came to Zhao Yiping's office door, Zhao Yiping's secretary Hong Yan asked Chen Xing to wait in the reception room for a while, Zhao Yiping had some important things to deal with, poured a glass of water for Chen Xing, Hong Yan accompanied Chen Xing to sit in the reception room, Hong Yan, who is one year younger than Chen Xing, is a top student who graduated from Jiangcheng University, she has some similarities with Chen Xing's experience, they are both favored by God, and can become Zhao Yiping's secretary, Hong Yan is also lucky, mixed in the officialdom, the world is big, and the luck is the greatest.
From a small clerk in the office to Zhao Yiping's secretary, Hong Yan also experienced a step to the sky, she has been with Zhao Yiping for three years, Zhao Yiping was transferred from Jiangcheng to Haicheng, and at that time also gave her room to choose, one is to follow Zhao Yiping to Haicheng, the other is to choose to go to a department with rich oil and water, Zhao Yiping will help her arrange, and can also arrange an official and a half-position, there may not be real power, but the deputy director-level treatment is absolutely indispensable, Hong Yan finally decided to follow Zhao Yiping to Haicheng after careful consideration, She is optimistic about Zhao Yiping's development, and believes that Zhao Yiping can be transferred back to Jiangcheng, and when the time comes, as Zhao Yiping's confidant, she will also be on the rise, and she made this choice, which also made her truly accepted by Zhao Yiping and became her confidant.
Hong Yan was secretly observing Chen Xing, Chen Xing went from secretary to deputy county magistrate to county magistrate, Hong Yan felt that the promotion route taken by the other party was completely something she could copy, her current identity is also the leading secretary, but Zhao Yiping's position and level are not as high as Zhou Mingfang, but this does not mean that she will lose Chen Xing in the future, she decided to follow Zhao Yiping to Haicheng, Hong Yan felt that this was the most correct choice she had made, because Zhao Yiping's weight and trust in her were increasing day by day, and she would not have the opportunity to climb up in the future. As long as she hugs Zhao Yiping's thigh tightly, she has hope.
"Chen County's work seems to be very busy? It seems that it is rare to see Chen County come to the city government to report on work. Hong Yan glanced at Chen Xing with a smile, she just felt from Zhao Yiping's words that Zhao Yiping was dissatisfied with Chen Xing's strictness, Hong Yan didn't know that Chen Xing and Zhao Yiping had already crossed paths seven or eight years ago, she had only been with Zhao Yiping for three years, and she hadn't had a chance to know about the past, but Zhao Yiping's dissatisfaction with Chen Xing was absolutely genuine, Hong Yan had followed Zhao Yiping for three years, if she didn't have this judgment, then she didn't have to be a secretary, and Hong Yan felt that she needed to hint at Chen Xing a little at the moment, Sell a favor to the other party.
"It's very rare." Chen Xing smiled faintly, Hong Yan is Zhao Yiping's secretary, Chen Xing tried to capture useful information from her words, the secretary is the second mouthpiece of the leader, Chen Xing has done such a role, and he knows a lot about it, every word that the secretary of the leader says, sometimes it is not just listening.
"That Chen County is really different from others, I see that the cadres of the counties and cities below are eager to go to the city government a few more times a day, and show their faces in front of the leaders a few more times, Chen County is doing the opposite, not afraid of making the leaders dissatisfied? Mayor Zhang is afraid that he will be angry, and Chen County must be psychologically prepared. Hong Yan said with a smile, and after saying this, she stood up, she felt that she had given Chen Xing enough hints, "I'll go over and see if Mayor Zhang is done." β
Chen Xing nodded and said yes, slightly surprised that Hong Yan secretly gave him a hint, the other party was really not afraid of selling the wrong one, so he wanted to sell him a favor, watching Hong Yan walk out, I don't know if the other party is deliberately acting coquettish, twisting his buttocks, but showing the charm of the buttocks wrapped in the professional suit.
After a while, Hong Yan walked back and asked Chen Xing to go over now, Chen Xing raised his spirits and walked into Zhao Yiping's office, Chen Xing wondered if the other party would give him a dismount first, which was very in line with Zhao Yiping's style, in private, Chen Xing linked Zhao Yiping's image with the image of a wicked woman.
Zhao Yiping buried his head in writing something on the desk, Chen Xing came in, Zhao Yiping didn't raise his head, if he faced other leaders, Chen Xing would feel that this move was normal, but on Zhao Yiping and the two of them, Chen Xing inevitably thought that Zhao Yiping was deliberately trying to give him a look, and even just now Hong Yan said that Zhao Yiping had something important to deal with first, Chen Xing suspected that Zhao Yiping deliberately wanted to dry himself for a while, this will, I'm afraid Zhao Yiping will snub him again.
Chen Xing glanced up at the clock on the wall, wrote down the time, and when Zhao Yiping raised his head, Chen Xing swept the time on the wall again, and Zhao Yiping hung him for fifteen minutes, which was not long.
"You, the county magistrate, are busier than anyone else, and I haven't seen you report to the city government once." Zhao Yiping looked at Chen Xing with a calm face, and couldn't see any personal feelings, but the coldness in the depths of his eyes revealed his true thoughts, she had never had a good impression of Chen Xing, it was, and it still is, originally this disgust has gradually dissipated over time, but after knowing that Chen Xing became Zhou Mingfang's secretary, and Zhou Mingfang was promoted to become the head of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, Zhao Yiping's disgust with Chen Xing suddenly broke out again, and the more Chen Xing came out, the more uncomfortable she felt.
"I've been to the city government twice, but Mayor Zhang, you either went out to inspect, or you were too busy, so I didn't have a chance to report to Mayor Zhang." Chen Xing fought back quietly.
"Yes." Zhao Yiping sneered, but she didn't say anything, she did look at Chen Xing uncomfortable, she had a rare impression of the two times Chen Xing said, but Chen Xing, as a subordinate, dared to directly push her like this, the anger in her heart can be imagined, and she snorted coldly, Zhao Yiping went straight to the point, as if it was an order tone, "I heard that the two victims of Wu An's case are friends with you, and you let them go to the public security bureau to state the case by themselves, so they said that they would not pursue the matter anymore, and they had mediated privately with the parties." β
