Chapter 25: Relaxation
Xiao Fei touched Xia Ying's sore ear, a wry smile appeared on his face, turned around and opened the door of his room with the key, saw Zhou Chengjie still sitting depressed on the sofa, saw him come in, smiled reluctantly and said, "Xiao Xiao, I'm really bothering you today." Although I know that you are not a soft-spoken person, I still want to tell you: The matter between me and Xiaoying is very complicated, and it cannot be said clearly in a few words, I hope you can keep this secret.
"As for what the relationship between me and her is, you will naturally know in the future, and you don't need to inquire now. Alright, let's go out for a walk together! When I came here just now, I saw that the small hill behind this community was nice, the greenery was very good, the slope was not steep, and it was very suitable for hiking, so we went there for a walk. ”
Xiao Fei agreed, and then under the pretext of making it convenient, he ran to the toilet and hurriedly sent a message to Fu Huafeng with his mobile phone, with only six words: "We'll come out immediately." ”
Five minutes later, Zhou Chengjie and Xiao Fei walked out of the aisle between the fifth and sixth buildings of the community and came to the main road outside.
Xiao Fei subconsciously looked ahead, and sure enough, he found that Fu Huafeng was standing on the side of the road two meters away, putting his mobile phone to his ear, and pretending to be making a call.
When Zhou Chengjie and Xiao Fei approached, Fu Huafeng deliberately glanced at this side, and suddenly showed a surprised expression on his face, immediately put his mobile phone in the bag, walked over quickly, and greeted with a smile on his face: "Hello Secretary Zhou, hello Xiao Xiao!" How can it be so coincidental? I happen to live in this community, I just came here to ask a friend to go for a walk together, I didn't expect Secretary Zhou you are also walking with Xiao Xiao, it's so honored! ”
Zhou Chengjie looked at Fu Huafeng a little surprised, stretched out his hand to shake him, and asked, "Xiaofu, which building do you live in?" Didn't you go to the hotel with the people in the prefecture to eat? ”
"I live in the second unit of the third building in this community, and I just had something to do at home, so I asked Secretary Luo for leave to go home. Secretary Zhou, since you have arrived here, can you come to my house to sit and have a cup of tea? ”
Zhou Chengjie showed a smile on his face, waved his hand and said: "Forget it, I just ate a delicious meal at Xiaofei's house, and now my stomach is relatively distended, I want to take a walk on the hillside behind the community to eliminate food, so I won't bother your family." ”
Zhou Chengjie knew that since he met Fu Huafeng here, it would be difficult to keep his whereabouts secret tonight, so he simply told him bluntly that he had just gone to Xiao Fei's house for dinner......
Fu Huafeng pretended to suddenly realize "oh", looked at Xiao Fei and said with a smile: "Xiao Xiao, you are young, you can't see that you have such good cooking skills!" What can be praised as a delicacy by Secretary Zhou is definitely not an ordinary level, if I have the opportunity, I must go to your house to taste your craftsmanship, you should not refuse! Hahaha! ”
Xiao Fei also smiled: "If Minister Fu can afford me, you are welcome to come to my house at any time, not to mention anything else, a few home-cooked dishes can still be made, as long as Minister Fu does not dislike it." ”
Fu Huafeng saw that he looked calm and cooperated with him seamlessly, and his good impression of him increased a few points, and he said a few words "good" one after another, and then said to Zhou Chengjie with a smile: "Secretary Zhou, I also happen to have the habit of taking a walk after dinner, and I also like to climb the hillside behind the community." If you find it convenient, I would like to go for a walk with you and Xiao Xiao, is that okay? ”
For such a request, Zhou Chengjie naturally couldn't refuse, so he nodded and said, "Okay, then let's go to the back mountain together!" ”
In the process of walking, because of Fu Huafeng's presence, Zhou Chengjie returned to his usual dignified and serious demeanor, and occasionally talked with Xiao Fei and Fu Huafeng, but most of the time he was silent, which made Fu Huafeng, who wanted to be close to him, feel an invisible pressure, and he seemed to have become a little clumsy at this time......
About half an hour later, the three of them climbed to the top of the hillside, stood on a stone and looked down at the Qingyuan County below, feeling the cool breeze blowing from the woods in the west.
After standing at the top of the hill for a quarter of an hour, the three men turned and walked down the hill. When he was halfway down the mountain, Fu Huafeng suddenly heard a shout: "Old Fu, why did you advance the time to climb the mountain today?" Didn't you always get to the top of the mountain around half past eight? It's only a little past eight o'clock, why did you come down? ”
As soon as Fu Huafeng heard the voice, he knew that it was Xie Benzhu, secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, who was greeting him, and responded with a smile: "Old Xie, I had an early dinner today, and I happened to meet Secretary Zhou and Xiao Xiao of the Local Taxation Bureau in the community, so I came to climb the mountain together." ”
It turned out that because it was already dark, Xie Benzhu only noticed Fu Huafeng who was walking in front, but he didn't see Zhou Chengjie behind him clearly, and at this moment he heard Fu Huafeng say that he came to climb the mountain with Secretary Zhou, and he couldn't help but be surprised, and quickly ran up a few steps, and looked at it, the tall and burly man behind Fu Huafeng was really Secretary Zhou Chengjie.
So, he hurriedly bowed his waist, greeted Zhou Chengjie with a smile on his face, and introduced himself.
Zhou Chengjie smiled and stretched out his hand to shake him, and said two "good" words in his mouth, without saying anything more.
Fu Huafeng pointed to Xiao Fei and said: "Lao Xie, this is Xiao Xiao of the Local Taxation Bureau, named Xiao Fei, who is currently stationed in Sujia Village, Yanshan Town, on behalf of the Local Taxation Bureau, to assist the village in carrying out the construction of a new countryside, and is a very talented and capable young talent. ”
When Xie Benzhu just ran to the three people, he saw Xiao Fei and Zhou Chengjie walking side by side and talking affectionately, thinking that he was Secretary Zhou's secretary or the city leader who accompanied the inspection, but he didn't expect that he was just a member of the mass work team of the Local Taxation Bureau, and he was shocked again, while shaking hands with Xiao Fei warmly, he stared at him, but because the light was relatively dim, he could only see a vague facial outline, as if he was very handsome, and his figure was tall and straight, giving people a feeling of Yushu facing the wind.
After Xie Benzhu chatted with Xiao Fei for a few words, he was worried that Secretary Zhou would be impatient, so he said goodbye to the three of them and continued to climb to the top of the mountain, but during this period, he turned back several times and secretly glanced down a few times, with a thoughtful expression on his face......
After Zhou Chengjie, Fu Huafeng and Xiao Fei walked to the side of the road under the hillside, they made a phone call to the driver Xiao Liu, told him his current location, and told him to drive over immediately to pick him up and take him to the hotel.
After making the call, Zhou Chengjie glanced at Fu Huafeng, who was standing beside Xiao Fei respectfully, then turned his head to look at Xiao Fei, and said with a smile: "Xiaofei, I have to go to the provincial capital to do something this weekend, and I don't have time." If you don't have anything else to do next weekend, you can go to the municipal party committee to find me, come to my house for two days, and I still want to eat the dishes you made! ”
