When he was about to get off work, Niu Sitong suddenly called Lu Chen, saying that he was going to invite him to dinner, just the two of them, his tone seemed a little anxious, Lu Chen estimated that Niu Sitong should have heard the information in the province about his whereabouts in the coming year, after all, he had always thought that he would continue to stay in Baiyue, and after Lu Chen's success and retreat, Baiyue would still be his, but who would have thought that people are not as good as heaven, and the province would have other plans, it is really unpredictable.

Lu Chen agreed to Niu Sitong's banquet, the location was in a relatively remote private restaurant, Lu Chen's estimate was right, Niu Sitong heard the rumors about his whereabouts in the coming year from his own channels, and knew that this matter was a foregone conclusion, no matter how hard he tried, it was impossible to recover, he understood that this matter was not Lu Chen's doing, but he also hoped that Lu Chen could help say good things for himself in front of the provincial leaders and find a good place.

In Lu Chen's opinion, Niu Sitong is still more supportive of his work, although there was a little friction in the early stage, but the follow-up performance was very good, otherwise he would not have asked Kou Heng about Niu Sitong's whereabouts, so he was willing to help Niu Sitong with this favor, but he just provided him with an opportunity, so that he could use the opportunity of the two weekends after tomorrow to find Kou Heng and Wu He respectively, in his own name.

As for what kind of place to go, it all depends on Niu Sitong's ability to communicate with the two bigwigs, but it won't be bad if he thinks about it, after all, he went in the name of landing Lu Chen, can the two bigwigs not give Lu Chen face, Lu Chen can help here can be said to be benevolent and righteous, Niu Sitong is also very clear about this, and frequently toasts Lu Chen and repeatedly expresses his gratitude.

Niu Sitong went to Yongzhou City early the next Saturday morning, Lu Chen also went at ten o'clock, he went to find Ni Yunsheng, the two met in a hotel room at noon, because the emotional relationship deepened, Ni Yunshang couldn't control his emotions and threw himself into Lu Chen's arms and kissed him wildly, but unfortunately Lu Chen never dared to take the initiative, and some were just passive.

After a wild kiss, Ni Yunshang glared at him with resentful eyes, and Lu Chen sighed: "Yunshang, I have a reason, don't ask what the reason is, I promise to tell you in the future." ”

Ni Yunshang stared at it for a few seconds and sighed, "Okay." ”

"Let's go, let's eat." After speaking, Lu Chen took her hand and left the room to go to the hotel restaurant to eat.

After the meal, the two returned to the guest room again, taking advantage of Ni Yunsheng's lack of attention to Lu Chen, put him to sleep, and then used pills and true qi to help him improve his physique, and then left a wisp of true yuan in his body, he was already a cultivator, his true yuan had a certain life, and he could help Ni Yunshang to condense his true qi step by step according to his consciousness, and when the true qi accumulated to a certain amount, Lu Chen would teach him martial arts.

Lu Chen didn't stay in Yongzhou for a long time, and returned to Baiyue after having dinner with Ni Yunsheng, and received a call from Tang Yanran on the way, asking him if he had eaten, Lu Chen said that he had eaten, Tang Yanran asked him to drink tea together, Lu Chen said that he was still on the way back to Baiyue, Tang Yanran was stunned, and then asked him where he went, Lu Chen said that he went to Yongzhou today.

Tang Yanran suddenly said sourly: "Brother Lu, you are going to find Ni Yunsheng." ”

"I didn't make a special trip to find her, but I went to meet the provincial leaders and had a meal with her by the way, after all, she supported the work of our city." Lu Chen said.

"Don't lie to me, your special explanation is the performance of 'there are no silver three hundred taels here'." Tang Yanran snorted.

"If you ask me that, of course I'll have to explain." Lu Chen said.

"Why do you have to explain it?" Tang Yanran asked.

"What do you say?" Lu Chen asked with a smile.

"How do I know what you think?" Tang Yanran said, as if muttering.

"Okay, let's not talk about this, I will be in the city in more than half an hour, do you want to invite me to tea?" Lu Chen said.

"Now it's up to you to ask me, because you made me wait." Tang Yanran said.

"No problem, I'll see you later, I'll call you when we get there." Lu Chen said.

"Hmm." Tang Yanran responded.

Half an hour later, as soon as Lu Chen got out of the toll booth, he called Tang Yanran, made an appointment with the meeting place, and went straight to it, and after meeting Tang Yanran, the two asked for a pot of tea and a few snacks and sat face to face, seeing that Tang Yanran had been staring at him silently, Lu Chen asked: "Sister, why are you staring at me like this?" ”

Tang Yanran pointed to the bottom of his left cheek and said, "Brother Lu, you still have lipstick there." ”

Lu Chen was stunned for a moment, and then reached out to touch it, how sensitive his sense of touch was, but he didn't touch the imprint of lipstick, and suddenly heard Tang Yanran "pounce" and smiled: "Brother Lu, I lied to you, but this also reflects your weakness." ”

"What is my heart?" Lu Chen said, but his heart was indeed very empty.

"Of course, I said it before, you made a special trip to find Ni Yunsheng." Tang Yanran said.

"How can this be said to be a weak heart, you suddenly said that I have lipstick on my face, and I touch it with my hand because it is instinctive." Lu Chen argued.

"It's instinct, but I saw surprise in your eyes, if your heart is not empty, your eyes should be at a loss." Tang Yanran said.

Lu Chen smiled and asked, "I said, sister, why are you so concerned about the matter between me and Dr. Ni?" ”

Tang Yanran snorted and said, "Brother Lu, didn't my previous performance be active enough, don't you still understand my intentions?" ”

"This, but" Lu Chen didn't expect Tang Yanran to be so direct today, he was caught off guard, and he didn't know how to answer for a while.

"Brother Lu, am I not attractive to you?" Tang Yanran is even more aggressive.

"No, no, girl, don't get me wrong, but, oh, didn't I tell you about it last time I was in Southern Xinjiang?" Lu Chen hurriedly said.

"But I don't mind." Tang Yanran simply confessed.

"But I don't dare." Lu Chen sighed.

"But how dare you do it to Ni Yunsheng?" Tang Yanran asked.

Lu Chen shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Sister, let me state once again that there is really nothing between me and Dr. Ni, and the current relationship is limited to a friend relationship. ”

"Is that really the case?" Tang Yanran looked at Lu Chen suspiciously and asked.

Lu Chen nodded solemnly and said, "Well, it's true, I didn't lie to you." ”

Tang Yanran lowered her eyes and was silent for a moment before saying, "Brother Lu, I made a lot of determination when I said what I just said from a girl's mouth. ”

"I know, but girl, why do you have to jump into the fire pit?" Lu Chen asked.

"But I don't think you're a fire pit." Tang Yanran said with a smile.

"Why?" Lu Chen asked.

"Because you're a dragon among men." Tang Yanran said word by word.

Lu Chen shook his head and sighed: "Sister, you think too highly of me." ”
