In late June, the capital is simply a big steamer, although it is already more than seven o'clock in the afternoon, but the heat has not dissipated at all. On the contrary, because people and vehicles produce carbon dioxide for a day, it is even more humid and hot.

At the Capital Railway Station, figures passed through the exit gate, leaving the short-lived air-conditioned area, and immediately wrapped in the scorching heat.

In such an environment, most people rush away, or rush to their destination, or rush to find a sheltered place, but some people stop to look at the square. In this crowd of people, there is a man and a woman who seem to have the same expression, but in fact, their hearts are far more anxious than those who frown, especially the women. These two people are none other than Li Guanglei and Miao Lingling, who came from Yuanxi City.

After a little look, at the edge of the relatively sparsely populated square, Miao Lingling took out the phone and dialed a number.

A bell rang, and a standard female voice came from the mobile phone: "The number you dialed is temporarily unanswered." ”

"No." After saying that, Miao Lingling called it a second time.

The ringback tone rang several times, and finally a voice that was both enthusiastic and apologetic came out: "Mayor Miao, hello, hello!" I'm sorry, there were a lot of people around just now, and now I'm in a secluded place, so I've kept you waiting. You still ask about it, I just contacted the chairman in the afternoon, and if you don't come back this week, you will be designated to come back next Wednesday and Thursday. ”

"Mr. Xin, that's not the case. I'm in the capital and want to meet you. Miao Lingling explained her intentions.

"Got to the capital? Why didn't you say hello in advance? I'll arrange for someone to pick you up. You say this, and that seems too rude. The other party continued to apologize.

"It was also a temporary decision, and I came over after a meeting in Yuanxi City, and I didn't plan to find Mr. Xin. After arriving in the capital, Mayor Li suddenly said that he should meet Mr. Xin, and I called. Miao Lingling gave an explanation.

"Really? Welcome, welcome. At this point, the other party's tone changed, "Oh, it's not a coincidence." ”

Glancing at Li Guanglei, Miao Lingling said into the phone: "Mr. Xin is inconvenient? That doesn't bother anymore. ”

"No, no, no, you misunderstood, as long as you and Mayor Li come, I won't have an inconvenient time. It's just that I'm out socializing now, I'm afraid I'll have to pay for it, after all, I'm having a treat, and I'm entertaining partners from other places. As long as I finish socializing, I will go to see you two immediately, and ask you two to ......" After a little hesitation, the other party gave a plan, "Where are you two now, I'll let someone pick you up first, okay?" ”

Miao Lingling let out an "oh" and said hesitantly, "Is this appropriate?" ”

"What's wrong with that? Your two leaders are here, and I can't greet you in time, which is already rude. Please let me know the location and I'll have someone pick it up right away. Speaking of this, the other party added, "Please don't blame the two of you, and I will apologize in person at that time." ”

"How can there be any blame? We didn't say hello in advance. After being polite, Miao Lingling reported the direction, "Capital Station North Square." ”

"Capital Station...... The two of you will find a place to enjoy the shade first, and I will arrange for someone to pick it up now. Right now, right now. The sound on the phone stopped abruptly.

"Let's go, where to wait." After Li Guanglei stretched out his hand to signal, the two entered a cold drink shop, asked for cold drinks and mineral water respectively, and looked outside.

It didn't take long for the phone to ring, and the call came successfully.

Success is first of all a polite "welcome" and the like, and then said that Mr. Xin asked him to pick up the station, he is now rushing over, but the traffic jam is terrible, I'm afraid it will take about two hours to arrive.

Ending the call, Li and Miao waited patiently and anxiously.

Cup after glass, bottle after bottle, drinking cold drinks is not only to pass the time, but also to pour a burning heart.

Originally, you didn't have to wait, just inform the other party in advance and let the other party pick up the station. But Li Guanglei was worried that the other party would run away vigilantly, and he was even more worried that the other party would say "not in the capital", so there would be no reason to even find the other party. There is no idea where the other party is located, and only when he sees someone can he implement the following plan.

Although I drank a lot of water or drinks, as time went on, instead of extinguishing the fire, my heart cavities became more and more hot. It's been more than two hours, so don't you come. The more anxious you are, the more inconvenient it is to urge, and the more difficult it is to worry that the other party will run away vigilantly.

The phone finally rang, and it was a successful call.

As soon as the phone was connected, Chenggong said: "I'm sorry, I've been waiting, I've been waiting, I've been waiting, and it should be about the same in ten minutes." In order to reduce the delay of the two people, please go to the sparsely populated area and go to the sign next to the subway exit to make it easy to identify. ”

"Okay, we'll go over now." Hanging up the phone, Miao Lingling and Li Guanglei came out of the cold drink shop, came to the subway entrance, and found the traffic sign.

Although it was already dark at night, the heat did not seem to have diminished at all, but it was much hotter and hotter. As soon as he stood for a while, dense sweat particles soaked through his clothes.

Ten minutes have passed,

Twenty minutes have passed,

It's been almost half an hour, and I haven't seen success, and I haven't seen anyone else I know.

Li and Miao glanced at each other, and they both saw worry in each other's eyes: Could it be someone who ran away?

"Li Zhen, Miao Zhen, I'm sorry, I'm late, I'm late." A female voice suddenly came.

Li Guanglei followed the sound and saw that a woman walked quickly off the overpass, waving and apologizing as she walked. The woman was wearing a professional skirt, but she was wearing an oversized brimmed cool hat, if she hadn't raised her head, she couldn't see her cheeks at all, this woman was Ai Qing.

Noticing the other party's dress and the condescending position just now, Li Guanglei understood that this woman must not have just arrived, and should have been observing on the overpass for a long time.

Ai Qing approached and apologized again. He also said that it was too far to turn around here, and the car was parked on the opposite side, and Director Cheng was waiting in the car.

So, Li Guanglei and Miao Lingling followed Ai Qing, walked across the overpass, and ran to the opposite side. During the journey, Ai Qing also turned back from time to time, talked with Li and Miao, and pointed out the outside to introduce the street scene, which seemed so natural.

The other party was clearly scouting the surrounding environment, and Li and Miao knew it, but the two pretended not to know, and they also showed that they were attracted by the other party's words.

"Didi", just when Li Guanglei and the others just arrived at the opposite side of the road, a luxury car sounded.

"Li Zhen, Miao Zhen, please get in the car." Ai Qing stretched out her hand to signal.

"This car is too luxurious...... Let's get a lot of money. Li Guanglei's eyes were firmly fixed on the body of the car, from the back to the front, and his mouth was "tsk".

The window next to the co-pilot rolled down at the right time, and he successfully leaned over in the car: "I don't have a lot of money, 1.8 million yuan." That imported custom Daben happens to be regularly maintained, otherwise I will drive three million cars to pick you up. ”

"Mayor Li, please!" Ai Qing had already opened the rear door.

"This ...... Ai assistant please. Li Guanglei held on to the car door, looking very timid.

Ai Qing smiled: "It should be invited by the leader, please by the VIP!" ”

Of course, I had to invite it first, Li Guanglei was no longer polite, got into the car, and Miao and Ai also sat on it one after another. In fact, Li Guanglei was deliberately timid and polite just now, the purpose was to observe whether there were other abnormalities in the car, but he didn't find it for the time being.

Chenggong was responsible for driving, and Ai Qing continued to introduce the prosperity of the big capital, and Li and Miao in the back seat listened to it with fascination.

Looking through the rearview mirror, Li Guanglei found that Cheng and Ai inadvertently squeezed their eyes and showed a knowing smile. This can be understood as complacency, thinking that bluffing Li and Miao can also be understood as "safety".

After passing through several alleys, the car was parked under a restaurant, and Li and Miao followed Ai Qing to get out of the car and enter the store, and if they succeeded, they went to "park".

After entering the meal bag, taking advantage of Ai Qing's urging for tea, Li Guanglei turned his head to see that the car was still parked in place, and Chenggong was making a phone call.

"Li Town, Miao Town, this shop has characteristics, these specialties are famous in the whole city, and many ministry leaders also come to eat." Ai Qing took the menu and asked Li and Miao to order.

Li Guanglei took the menu, flipped through it casually, and returned it to Ai Qing. Through the price of vegetables and the environment of the restaurant, he knew that the so-called characteristics were just a disguise, and the low price was real, and the other party was Mengtu steamed buns. This also confirms that the other party really has no strength, otherwise he should go to a high-end hotel to set up a wide range, and the car downstairs must also be rented.

After a while, the meal bag was successfully served, and the dishes were served.

Politeness, greetings, and a welcome dinner.

Although I didn't eat lunch, the dishes looked pretty good, but how could Li and Miao have an appetite? But in order to replenish their physical strength, and in order not to be seen by the other party, Li and Miao seemed very happy, obviously ate very well, and drank a little beer. But when receiving draft beer, Li Guanglei had an extra heart, and on the grounds of "the pregnancy is not clean", he went to the service desk to change the cup, and personally took a cup for himself and Miao Lingling.

Cheng and Ai talked eloquently, talking about the culture of the capital, talking about successful cases, and the whole meal bag was full of laughter, which seemed very lively.

After clinking glasses with the guests again, he put down the draft beer glass, and successfully smiled slightly: "Li Zhen, I am very honored to be able to come to the capital and find us in my busy schedule." It's not easy for you to find time, you must be here to attend, right? ”

Li Guanglei replied: "No meeting. ”

Success let out an "oh" and asked, "That's training." ”

"No training." While speaking, Li Guanglei looked at Miao Lingling.

Miao Lingling smiled shyly and said in a low voice: "No training." ”

Success said: "That's ......"

"Director Cheng, how can there be such a thorough question, who hasn't had any personal matters." Ai Qing interrupted in time.

"Oh, don't ask, don't ask." Success, a look of sudden realization.

Li Guanglei suddenly asked: "Why hasn't Mr. Xin arrived yet?" It's past eleven o'clock. ”

"yes, I'll ask again, it should be soon." Success said and walked out of the house.

After a while, he successfully returned to the meal bag and apologized again and again: "Oh, Li Zhen, Miao Zhen, I'm really embarrassed." Just contacted Mr. Xin, he had long wanted to come here, but the guests proposed to sing again, and they were all leaders of Party A's cooperative units, which was really ...... Xin always said to come back as early as possible. ”

"Earlier? It's going to be the middle of the night. Mr. Xin is deliberately avoiding us. I'm afraid it won't come, right? Li Guanglei's face darkened.

"No, no, I'll see, I'll come." Success explained again and again.

"Forget it, I won't eat it." Li Guanglei said, stood up, turned around and left.

"What's the score? What's the big deal? Miao Lingling got up and left the table angrily.

After a little hesitation, he glanced at Ai Qing, and successfully chased him out quickly, apologetic again and again: "Li Zhen, Miao Zhen, don't be angry, don't be angry, misunderstood, misunderstood." ”

Li and Miao didn't look back, and they resolutely left.

"Li Zhen, listen to me." In a hurry, he successfully pulled Li Guanglei's shirt.

Li Guanglei turned his head and glared: "What are you doing?" It's not like I don't have friends. It's okay not to cooperate. ”

"Yes, don't cooperate, don't follow." Miao Lingling shouted angrily.
