Chapter Eighty-Eight: Zhang Li's Temptation

As soon as Xu Xia went to work, Dou Hui was overjoyed to tell him a good news: she had finished talking to her father, and the father who doted on his daughter had understood her idea of breaking up.

Xu Shrimp sat down and picked up the teacup, and said sincerely: "Yes, when are you going to do your mother's work?" ”

Dou Hui said happily: "My dad said that when the May Day holiday is over, where will our family go to play, and make my mother happy, and then tell her, but now I am afraid that I will make her angry." ”

Xu Shrimp frowned slightly, feeling that this idea was not appropriate, how could May Day be said to be a festival, Lin Dacai would definitely come to the door, take things and spend money, the old lady saw her son-in-law, and was happy in her heart, at this time I told her, I am afraid it is difficult to be optimistic. But this is not something he should be involved in, so he said, "Then I wish you all the best." ”

Dou Hui said with a slight dissatisfaction: "Why does it sound very reluctant, are you unhappy that I broke up?" ”

Xu Xia ignored this, but said: "Doudou, now is not as good as when I was in school, I go to and from work all day, the contact area is very narrow, after breaking up, I want to have a boyfriend by myself, there are very few opportunities, basically you can only rely on others to introduce you, you have to be prepared to see your boyfriend." ”

Dou Hui's mouth curled: "I won't look at it." Sitting back in his chair unhappily.

Xu Xia's brows furrowed, and she looked at her with a headache and heartache.

Dou Hui was taken aback, and said with a smile: "What's wrong with you, Brother Xu, why are you looking at me like this?" ”

Xu Shrimp said earnestly: "I'm not talking about cool words, since you have decided to break up with your boyfriend, you will inevitably have to face this problem." You're not too young to always do things on the spur of the moment. On the road of love, you have already been wrong once, and a few years of youth have been wasted, do you want to be wrong again? ”

Dou Hui's expression darkened, looked at him, bowed his head and was silent.

Xu Xia couldn't bear it, and comforted him: "Cheer up, you are still young, as long as you don't choose the wrong person again, you will have a good time in the future." ”

Dou Hui felt a lot more comfortable and looked up at him again.

Xu Xi smiled at her, patted her on the shoulder, and walked out the door.

Dou Hui hurriedly called: "Why are you going?" ”

Xu Shrimp didn't reply: "Go out and make a call." Before the words fell, the man had already arrived at the door.

Dou Hui turned around angrily: "I go out to call every day, and I hate it for half a day!" ”

◇◇◇◇◇ the staircase window of the corridor, Xu Shrimp dialed Yang Yingchen's mobile phone. Ji Ruomin splashed on the street and scolded people for being bloody, and now I don't know what to do, so I have to call and ask and apologize.

As soon as the phone was connected, I heard Yang Yingchen sigh and say: "You can be regarded as calling me, I didn't sleep well all night last night, so I will check you." How about it, your wife won't have any trouble going back, right? ”

Yang Yingchen is Yang Yingchen, always so comfortable, he just called, and people have been worried for a night. Xu Shrimp smiled and said: "Then thank you, I'm fine, my wife is selfish, didn't you see that I went to you yesterday, didn't you say much about me?" It's a little sorry for you, but my wife is like that, and I can't do anything about her, look at my face, don't take it to heart. ”

Yang Yingchen said indifferently: "I'm alone, it doesn't matter, you're fine, I'm relieved." ”

Xu Xia breathed a sigh of relief and said: "That's good, I'm afraid that you won't be able to think about it, and I'll be angry again, then I really don't know what to do." ”

Yang Yingchen said heartily: "How is it possible, am I that kind of person?" Without pausing, he asked, "By the way, how does your wife know that we are eating there?" ”

Xu Xiahan said: "That's the case, when I asked her for leave, she originally said that she wanted to go with me, but then there was an emergency meeting, and she said that she couldn't go, so I didn't tell you." ”

Yang Yingchen complained: "I thought about it, you are really, why didn't you tell me in advance?" Don't fix this next time, it's nothing if I was misunderstood by her, if it really affects the two of you, my sin will be great. ”

Xu Shrimp said with a smile: "Don't worry, you will definitely learn a lesson in the future, and I won't let you suffer any more injustice." ”

Yang Yingchen said angrily: "It's good that you know, remember to take a check after May Day to choose a day when your wife is not at home, I don't want to be counted by her again." ”

Xu Shrimp smiled: "I thought you didn't dare to come, you were going to sneak in for a long time, so you weren't afraid of being counted by me again?" ”

Yang Yingchen said angrily: "If you really count it as a good one, I'm afraid you don't have the guts." ”

Xu Shrimp said: "That's okay, that's it first, I won't tell you." I will remember for you what you have transferred. ”

Yang Yingchen said: "I know if you don't say it, I believe you." After that, hang up.

Xu Xia couldn't help but shake his head, and said in his heart, you believe it, but my chew was trapped by you.

◇◇◇◇◇ put away the mobile phone, Xu Shrimp went to Hao Rui's office and gave her Yang Yingchen's 10,000 yuan bank card. Although the relationship between the two is unusual, Xu Xia still doesn't want to owe her if possible.

Subsequently, Xu Xi returned to the office to deal with some routine work such as information screening and document submission, and the morning passed quickly. Before lunch, the mobile phone rang on the table, and it was Zhang Li. Although the two had exchanged phone numbers earlier, they didn't call much, only three or four times in total.

Xu Shrimp estimated that it was a matter of the photo of Qingrengling, and answered the channel: "Lili, why is it so good today, suddenly call me?" ”

Zhang Li's heart-warming voice softened: "Your secretary Xu won't be so forgetful, right?" I've just finished making your lucky star and giving you such a big gift, it's only been two days, you won't want to cross the river and tear down the bridge, right? ”

Xu Shrimp smiled and said directly: "How can it." You want a picture of that day, right? I'll send it to your email right away. The so-called benefits are related to Secretary Qu, and he rationally avoided it.

Zhang Lijiao said: "How can you be so cheap." I just finished an interview assignment, and now I just came out, and I will be able to arrive at your unit in about 15 minutes, you are ready to have a treat, and by the way, engrave a photo plate to me. ”

Xu Xi didn't answer and laughed: "No, right?" You big beauty and big reporter went to interview, but they didn't leave you to eat? Do you want to run away from my small family? ”

Zhang Li giggled: "Who said I didn't stay?" I deliberately didn't agree, so I'm going to let you have a treat, don't you be stingy? Remember, fifteen minutes. ”

Xu Xia had no choice but to say, "No problem, I'll wait for you at the gate in fifteen minutes." ”

Zhang Li chuckled, "See you in fifteen minutes." ”

Hanging up the phone, Xu Xia shook his head, found a 2G USB disk that no one used and plugged it into the computer, and prepared to format it for Zhang Li to copy the photo, saving him the effort to engrave the disk.

Dou Hui kept listening to him calling, and couldn't help but say, "I want to invite someone to dinner again, is that reporter Zhang?" ”

Xu Xia sighed: "Yes, it's her, now everyone is hacked with me, and earning this salary is not enough to entertain guests." ”

Dou Hui grinned and said cheekily, "Do you want me to accompany you?" With me as a light bulb, unexpectedly your wife will know in the future, and you will be easier to talk. ”

Xu Xianzheng copied Zhang Li's photo and blurted out: "Okay, you can go if you want to." ”

As soon as the words came out, I realized that it was inappropriate. Although I don't know whether the matter between Zhang Li and Secretary Qu is true or false, there must be rumors, and finally Zhang Li took the initiative to ask for a return, and he still brought someone, is he trying to avoid suspicion? Such a public avoidance of suspicion is similar to public insult, and Zhang Li is so sensitive, how can she do this.

Hurriedly raised his head and changed his words: "I'm sorry, Doudou, I can't take you this time." ”

Dou Hui was stunned for a moment, and said aggrievedly: "Why? Just promised people and regretted it? Not even for a second. ”

Xu Xia smiled and said sincerely: "Don't be careful, I really can't take you this time, don't ask for any reason, I promise, I will invite you alone when I go back." ”

Although Dou Hui was unhappy and was urged by curiosity, she finally got the promise of a separate treat, and reluctantly said: "Okay, but don't regret it." ”

Xu Shrimp said: "Don't worry, I will do what I say." ”

After copying the photo, a few more words, fifteen minutes soon arrived, Xu Xia took the USB drive downstairs.

◇◇◇◇◇ gate, under the small tree, almost in the same position, Yang Yingchen, who stood refreshing and happy yesterday, has now been replaced by a more charming and moving Zhang Li.

Zhang Li is still dressed in red to be coquettish, and the fine green silk sprinkled with the original shawl is tied into a small ponytail, which is more innocent and pretty; The forehead is as soft as willow hair and long eyelashes tremble in the wind, and a pair of big talking eyes seem to be affectionate through the willow silk veins; Under the delicate Yao nose, the thin and ruddy red lips have a shy sweet smile, and the warm dimples on the cheeks are even more exciting.

Xu Shrimp's heart beat a few times without arguing.

I have to say that if it is purely beautiful, Zhang Li may be slightly inferior to Ji Ruomin and Lin An'an, but the charm that comes from the soul in the bones, as well as the ensuing allure and lethality, Rao is shrimp has been swimming all over the Fang Cong for many years, and he is the only one, not to mention that there is nothing truly pure in the world?

When Zhang Li saw him come out alone, her eyes lit up, and she stepped forward with a smile: "Secretary Xu, we meet again." ”

There was also an interview van parked on the side of the road, and in addition to the driver, there was also a photojournalist with a camera. Xu Shrimp was surprised: "You didn't come alone?" ”

Zhang Liming's eyes rolled, and she smiled slightly: "Just kidding, how can you let Secretary Xu have a treat, are you still serious?" ”

The feeling of being deceived is not pleasant in any way, Xu Xia was a little stuttering, handed her the USB drive, and pretended to be generous: "It's all here, what's polite, let's leave after eating?" ”

Zhang Li took the USB drive and said with a gentle smile: "I really don't need to, I have other things to do in the afternoon, and I'm very busy today." ”

Xu Shrimp nodded and said, "That's okay, then another day." ”

Speaking of which, it was time to say goodbye, but Zhang Li didn't mean to leave, and took the USB drive in her hand: "The sister who helped us take pictures that day is also your colleague?" I haven't seen it before. ”

Zhang Li didn't get the answer that day, and she was still thinking about it. Xu Shrimp couldn't cry or laugh: "What do you remember your surname?" There was one of her in Shiweitian that day, and she was introduced to you, and Officer Cheng the night before was also introduced in Shiweitian. ”

Zhang Li turned her eyes and thought about it, and said embarrassedly: "Really? Maybe I drank a little too much for my friend's birthday that day, so I didn't pay much attention to it. ”

Xu Xia said: "It's okay, anyway, you don't know them well, it doesn't matter." ”

Zhang Li said quietly: "Listen to what you said, she shouldn't be from your municipal party committee, why was she also in Qingrafter Ridge that day?" I think she knows you well. ”

Zhang Li didn't stop until she reached her goal, and asked in a circle again. Xu Shrimp laughed secretly and said truthfully: "She is my college classmate, one year older than me, and now she opens a cosmetics store, and the souvenirs used for that day's activities are the cosmetics in her store, you went late that day, and you may not have gotten it." ”

Zhang Liyan smiled: "Did I say that?" I heard Secretary Wu say, you seem to go to school quite early, and you even skipped a grade, so that's the case. This sentence does not match the preface and afterword, and it is nondescript, but it jumped out of Lin Anan's topic at once.

Xu Xiqi said: "He even told you this, when did he tell you?" ”

Zhang Li smiled lightly: "I went to the airport to see off the representative that day, chatted with him, and happened to talk about you, so I listened to him." "The canteen of the municipal party committee has been opened, and people are coming out of the building one after another. Intentionally or unintentionally, he glanced at it and said without pausing: "Oh, you have already started eating, then I won't bother, you can go." ”

Xu Shrimp said politely: "Then you are busy, you will invite you another day when you have time." ”

Zhang Li waved her hand and walked towards the interview car, but after a few steps, she suddenly turned back and said, "Look at my surname, I almost forgot to get down to business." ”

Xu Shrimp was sending him off from behind, almost bumping into his arms, and hurriedly took a step back and said, "What's the matter?" ”

Zhang Li said: "After the 10th anniversary celebration of Haida Group after May Day, Secretary Qu wants to attend the speech, you should also go, right?" ”

Seeing her mention Secretary Qu, Xu Xia said cautiously: "It should be, what's wrong?" ”

Zhang Li glanced at the interview car behind her, and said in a low voice: "For such a big event, I must send a report with photos, it's very troublesome to bring a photojournalist, anyway, you will take pictures when you arrive, I'll use yours, do you think it's okay?" ”

Xu Xia smiled dumbly: "That's it, it's a trivial matter, you don't think I'm not doing well." ”

Zhang Li said happily: "That's decided, see you after May Day." "Waved his hand and went.

Xu Shrimp etiquette surname sent two steps: "See you after May Day." ”

Zhang Li went to the side of the car and opened the car door, and suddenly turned back, with a hint of shame and gratitude, a pair of bright eyes looked at him.

Xu Xi said strangely: "Anything else?" ”

Zhang Li said softly: "Gao Lingbo is very annoying, thank you that day." ”

Xu Xia was stunned for a moment, and said calmly: "You're welcome, you give me a lucky star, don't you pay me back?" ”

Zhang Li lowered her eyebrows and smiled, left a deep look, got in the car and closed the door.

Xu Xia subconsciously raised his hand, Zhang Li raised his little hand to him through the car window.

The car started and went away with Zhang Li's smile, but Xu Xia was puzzled. Zhang Li asked him to invite him to dinner without a clue, and said that he was joking, shouldn't he deliberately test him? Otherwise, why would he suddenly throw Gao Lingbo out? But what's the point? Is there anything wrong with her and Secretary Qu?

The more Xu Xi thought about it, the more confused he became, and decided not to bother with it, anyway, it was none of his business. He only knew that the most direct consequence of Zhang Li's inexplicable joke was to make him owe Dou Hui a meal.

It's better to be early than owing, Xu Xia took out his mobile phone and dialed Dou Hui's phone: "Doudou, come out, I'll ask you now." ”
