Huang Ming and Chen Xing have been old buddies for more than ten years, and when they used to study, they didn't go to Chen Xing's house to play, on the table in the bedroom of Chen Xing's house, there was a photo frame, which was a photo of Chen Xing's mother holding a few months old Chen Xing sitting and taking pictures, at that time Huang Ming also joked that Chen Xing looked really pink when he was a child, and his face was round like a watermelon, because he had seen that photo a lot of times, so Huang Ming was also impressed, looking at the baby's face at the moment, isn't it very similar to Chen Xing when he was a child? Even with the current Chen Xing, there is a shadow of a bit of similarity.

Huang Mingwu stared at the baby in Zhu Zi's feelings, and turned his head to look at Chen Xing from time to time, his eyes became more and more puzzled, at this time Zhu Ziqing seemed to have noticed something from Huang Ming's actions, and quietly hugged the baby in his arms tightly, and pulled the baby scarf up again, covering the baby's face.

"Miss Ziqing, this child is yours?" Chen Xing finally couldn't help but ask, he didn't pay attention to the child, when he saw Zhu Ziqing holding the child, his face was full of maternal brilliance, Chen Xing was a little jealous for no reason, this woman who had a relationship with him was actually a famous flower, and even gave birth to a child?

"No, I adopted it abroad, it's cute." Zhu Ziqing shook his head with a smile, looking at the child in his arms, his eyes were full of maternal love.

"Oh, I see." Chen Xing suddenly realized that he was quietly relieved at this time.

"Mayor Chen, where are you going?" Zhu Ziqing glanced at Chen Xing with a smile, "Now it should be called Secretary Chen, I heard that you have already been transferred to Wangshan?" ”

"Go to the capital." Chen Xing responded to Zhu Ziqing, shook his head and smiled, "It's not Secretary Chen now, I'm currently unemployed." ”

Zhu Ziqing was stunned when she heard this, thinking that Chen Xing was joking, and she didn't take it to heart, although she often used the Internet to care about Chen Xing's affairs abroad, but she was busy returning to China these days, and she didn't know that Chen Xing had resigned, but even if she paid attention, she couldn't understand it, because of the official's intentional dilution, Chen Xing's resignation was not officially reported.

"Chen Xing, the time is almost up, you almost have to go in." Huang Ming looked at the time and reminded Chen Xingdao.

Chen Xing looked at the time, nodded slightly, and said to Zhu Ziqing, "I have to be in a hurry, and we will talk next time I have a chance." ”

Saying goodbye to Zhu Ziqing, Chen Xing walked to the waiting hall, and Huang Ming on the side saw that there would be no outsiders here, so he said, "Chen Xing, have you noticed, the child in the woman's arms just now is very similar to you." ”

"Huang Ming, I said what are you talking nonsense, are you cleaning up?" When Chen Xing heard Huang Ming's words, he stumbled and almost stepped on the air.

"No, I'm serious, I'm not kidding you." Huang Ming shook his head and said seriously, "I still remember the photo of your mother hugging you on the table at home before, it was a photo of you being a few months old, didn't you see that the child just now was very similar to you back then, even compared to you now, it looks quite similar." ”

"What a mess, I think you're having the wrong head." Chen Xing glared at Huang Ming angrily, seeing Huang Ming so serious, his heart jumped, he didn't look at the kid just now, but he also glanced at it, this will think about it carefully, Ran Dao is really a bit similar to him?

"Okay, I won't say it, you'll treat me as a fart." Huang Ming was afraid that Chen Xing would really get angry, so he stopped the topic in time.

The two walked into the waiting hall, Huang Ming still couldn't help the gossip in his heart, and asked, "But that girl was really beautiful just now, when did you meet?" ”

"I met when I used to work in Nanzhou, okay, don't talk about this, don't ask any questions, don't go out and chew your tongue with people just now." Chen Xing admonished.

"Don't worry, I'll tell you when I see it, and I won't talk nonsense to outsiders." Huang Ming nodded.

The two exchanged a few words of greeting at the end, and after Chen Xing checked in, he waved his hand to Huang Ming, "It's here, Huang Ming, go back, if you have anything, remember to contact me at any time." ”

Saying goodbye to Huang Ming, Chen Xing boarded the plane, and after sitting down in the seat, Chen Xing was a little absent-minded thinking about what Huang Ming said just now.

Is the child in Zhu Zi's feelings really a little similar to him? Chen Xing was thinking wildly in his heart, and it wasn't until the weightlessness caused by the plane taking off that Chen Xing's attention was diverted.

After a short period of discomfort, Chen Xing retracted his thoughts and didn't think about Zhu Ziqing anymore, Huang Ming just said it suddenly, and he didn't need to take it too seriously.

Quietly looking out of the window, Chen Xing, who was sitting by the window, looked at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window, and his mood was a little brighter.

After nearly three hours of flight, at one o'clock at noon, the plane finally arrived in the capital, and it was Zhang Yi who came to pick up the plane.

"You're in good spirits." Zhang Yi said when he saw Chen Xing's first sentence.

"Could it be that I still have to be depressed and depressed." Chen Xing shook his head and smiled.

"Not really, but I'm relieved to see you so open." Zhang Yi smiled, "I thought you would be dull for a while." ”

"There's nothing boring about it, and during this free time, I can just focus on my studies and recharge my batteries." Chen Xing said with a smile, he applied for the graduate class of Beijing University, and his mentor was introduced to him by his father-in-law, Professor Liu Guoding of Beijing University, which is the signboard of the Department of Economics of Beijing University, and he is also a national policy consultant, and a leader in the field of economics...... Every aura taken out is eye-catching enough, and I don't know how many people want to worship under its door and eat it behind closed doors.

"You haven't reported on your graduate studies until now." Zhang Yi asked.

"Well, I said in August last year that I was going to report, just in time for the new semester in September, but I was transferred to Wangshan at that time, and the old and new work were handed over, and I forgot about it as soon as I got busy." Chen Xing smiled bitterly.

"Professor Liu Guoding introduced to you by Uncle Guohua?"

"Well, it's Professor Liu."

"Hey, then you haven't reported it until now, I guess it's good to have you." Zhang Yi gloated.

"Why?" Chen Xing was stunned.

"You'll know then." Zhang Yi said with a smile, "Then Liu Guoding is famous for his stinky temper." ”

"Won't it?" Chen Xing's face was bitter, if it was really like what Zhang Yi said, then it is estimated that he would have to bear it in the future.

"Don't be bitter with a face, even if Professor Liu asks you to eat a few closed doors, you have to endure it, there are so many so-called experts and scholars in China, Liu Guoding is a real talent and real learning, and it is also worthy of respect, he is seventy years old, and he has long retired from the front-line teaching position, but people still take time to teach new students in the undergraduate class every year, and still insist on taking graduate students, not only doctoral students, but also master's students, for people of his age, it is really hard, People really want to train more talents for the country, instead of going around giving speeches to make money like some people, mixing up qualifications and fame.

"I don't know the specific situation of this teaching you said, but if you think about it, I don't seem to have heard much of Professor Liu giving a speech outside." Chen Xing nodded.

The two walked out while talking, and when they got out of the airport, Chen Xing hadn't eaten lunch yet, Zhang Yi took him to a mutton shop to eat shabu mutton, saying that it was very authentic, and sure enough, Chen Xing was full of praise after eating.

"Uncle Guohua told you where he will arrange for you to go next, right?" In the box of the hot pot restaurant, Zhang Yi asked Chen Xing quietly.

"No, what, what wind did you hear?" Chen Xing's expression froze, he was more concerned about his next step than anyone else, but the old man didn't call him, and Chen Xing didn't take the initiative to ask, so as not to make the old man feel that he was so uncomposed.

"I didn't either, I thought you should know a little bit about eyebrows, so I asked you." Zhang Yi pursed his lips and frowned slightly, "It seems that it hasn't been settled yet." ”

"Forget it, it's okay if it's not settled, I still wish I had some more rest." Chen Xing said with a smile.

"Come on, you don't have to be duplicitous." Zhang Yi sneered.

After the two finished eating at the mutton restaurant, Zhang Yi asked Chen Xing about the arrangements for the afternoon, Chen Xing thought that Zhang Ningning was not in the capital, and he would have nothing else to do when he went back to accompany the child in the afternoon, so he said, "I plan to visit Professor Liu in the afternoon." ”

"Then it's time to go, you're a year late for your visit." Zhang Yi smiled and nodded, "But let me remind you, if you go, it's best not to mention any gifts, if you have to, just mention some fruits or simple local products, don't bring any expensive gifts." ”

"Okay, I remember." Chen Xing nodded.

Riding Zhang Yi's car back to the residence, only the mother and son were at home, Chen Xing wanted to tease his son, but the little guy was taking a nap, Chen Xing had to give up.

"Chen Xing, you'll be fine this time." In the living room, Zou Fang asked with concern.

"Mom, I told you, we didn't break the law, how could there be anything." Chen Xing smiled and put his mother's shoulder, pressed his mother to sit on the sofa, massaged his mother's shoulder, and said with a smile, "Mom, you just put your heart back in your stomach, it's nothing, your son and I wish I had such a chance to rest." ”

"You're also a secretary of the municipal party committee, so if you don't say anything, it's gone." Zou Fang was unwilling.

"This person will always have ups and downs in his life, it's normal, let's just look at it with our hearts." Chen Xing smiled, but he would be more open-minded in front of his mother, he didn't want his parents to worry about it.

"By the way, Mom, I'm going to go out now to visit Professor Liu at Beijing University, this time I resigned, I just have some free time, so I should go to Professor Liu to report first, so as not to delay anything." Chen Xing diverted the topic without a trace.

"I heard for a long time that you were going to apply for a graduate class, but I haven't been there yet." Zou Fang shook his head, "I guess the professors have opinions." ”

"Didn't you come back this time and immediately think about going?" Chen Xing smiled, "Mom, then I'll go first." ”

Before the butt was hot at home, Chen Xing left the house again, thinking about Zhang Yi's previous reminder, Chen Xing frowned slightly, he couldn't really come to visit empty-handed, and it was the first time he came to the door, let him go empty-handed, he was really embarrassed.

took out his mobile phone, Chen Xing first dialed Liu Guoding's number, this is still the number given to him by his father-in-law before, he has only called once before, this will go, he must first make sure that Liu Guoding is not at home.

The phone was quickly connected, Liu Guoding answered the phone by himself, Chen Xing made sure that the other party was at home, and after asking Liu Guoding's residence, without saying a word, he went to a fruit shop on the side of the road to buy a bag of fruit, took a taxi, and went straight to Beijing University, Liu Guoding is still living in the faculty dormitory of Beijing University.

Ten minutes away, just not the traffic jam period, Chen Xing soon arrived at Beijing University, walking into the campus, Chen Xing's whole person seems to be a few years younger, the young men and women walking through the university campus, the youthful atmosphere, so that Chen Xing also seems to return to the time when he was in college.

After walking in the school for seven or eight minutes, Chen Xing soon smiled bitterly, the campus of Beijing University is very large, Liu Guoding only told him that he lived in 305, Building 2, District 1, the old faculty dormitory, and he walked all the way to see the teaching building, and the faculty dormitory did not know which direction it was coming from.

Stopped a student and asked the Qing staff dormitory in which direction, and Chen Xing, who got the answer, went to the destination, and finally didn't have to walk around like a headless fly.

The next thing made Chen Xing smile bitterly, when he found 305 in the second building of the faculty dormitory, he knocked on the door and realized that he had found the wrong place, it was not Professor Liu Guoding who lived in it, and people told him that Professor Liu lived in the old faculty dormitory area, which was the new faculty dormitory area, two places.

"Tsk, I used to have the secretary take care of everything first, so it's really a bit blind to do something by myself." Chen Xing came down from upstairs and smiled self-deprecatingly.

The person just now told him how to get to the old faculty dormitory, Chen Xing didn't take any more detours this time, and when he saw an old building, Chen Xing knew that he couldn't be wrong this time, and this was it. Just as Chen Xing looked up at the faintly unclear building number on the building, looking for which one was the second building, he coldly bumped into the person in front of him, to be precise, Chen Xing walked too fast, guessed the other party's shoes, and directly let the person in front of him fall forward.

When Chen Xing heard the sound of 'oops', he saw that the person in front of him had fallen, several books were scattered on the ground, and it was a female classmate who was stepped on by him.

"How do you walk, on purpose?"

Before Chen Xing could apologize, he was pushed by the man on the side, and Chen Xing, who was caught off guard, took two or three steps back in a row, and almost fell to the ground.
