Zhao Tianhong, it's fifty-seven this year, right? That's not a young age. Again, promotion in officialdom is closely related to age. One step later, maybe the career in this life will change greatly. If you delay for so many years, you will not only lose time, but also the opportunity for promotion!

At the age of fifty-seven, almost, I will work for another two years, and at the age of sixty, I will retire and go home to retire. With some effort, it is not impossible to go to the capital. Since Wen Hansheng has been selected by Ye Chengshu, he is not far from the day when he will take off that sub-character and become a secretary. As for the current secretary, whether he will live in peace for two years, or go further, it depends on his choice next Saturday.

If he refused Zhang Deliang's invitation and attended Ye Chengshu's inauguration, then he would be able to rise to another level, go to the capital and serve the people comfortably for another seven or eight years, and then retire. If he chooses Zhang Deliang, then it is a pity. It may be impossible for him to even retire from the position of secretary safely.

Because, the position of secretary is undoubtedly in Wen Hansheng's pocket.

Isn't it a little ridiculous? Maybe Wen Hansheng himself didn't have this idea, but he was already 100% in this position. Actually, it's not ridiculous at all. The way of officialdom is a change of word.

Changing rapidly, no one can guarantee what will happen in the next second. And the person who can predict it is obviously the maker of the game.

It just so happens that Ye Chengshu is one of the game-makers.

"What do you think?" Lingse gently leaned his head against his chest, put his little hand on his lower abdomen, and stroked the abdominal muscles full of strength, "Lie on the bed." But his eyes are as big as brass bells, what's the trouble? ”

Ye Chengshu put the pillow under his head and leaned up, so that Lingse was more comfortable in his arms. After being silent for a long time, Ye Chengshu made up his mind and said, "Wife, I didn't want to ask, but after thinking about it, I still think—"

Lingse smiled and reached out to press his lips and asked, "You want to ask the old man what he told me last night, right?" ”

"It's not." Ye Chengshu kissed Lingse's palm with a wicked eye, and at the end, he stretched out the tip of his tongue and licked it. The shy Lingse became a red braised hairy crab again, and he laughed out loud with satisfaction.

"What the old man told you last night, I can probably guess." She was so enthusiastic last night, wasn't it because she knew that he agreed to Zhang Deliang's request in order to protect her, and then there were a lot of troubles that could have been avoided. He could guess all of this. It's just that......

"And what are you trying to ask me?"

"I'm not asking you anything, I'm trying to tell you something."

Lingse blinked, why in the past two days, someone always wanted to tell her something. Moreover, not for themselves, but for another person. The old man told her those things in order to dispel any misunderstandings she might have about Ye Chengshu in the future. What about Ye Chengshu, what is he going to say to her, and for whom?

"Wife, do you dare to move me to do those things for you?" Ye Chengshu asked.

Lingse nodded, stretched out his hand to wrap around his waist, and replied in the affirmative: "Of course, I am very moved." ”

"You're not just moved by what I've done for you. I'm not the only one you have to be grateful for. ”

"Yes......" Lingse licked her lips and asked timidly, "Who else?" ”

"Quan Zimo." Ye Chengshu categorically dropped three words.

Lingse was stunned for a moment, then laughed lowly, and shook his head as if self-deprecatingly. Quan Zimo, it's not an accident, it's not an accident at all. Before Ye Chengshu appeared, her thoughtfulness had always been protected by him.

Quan Zimo once said a sentence himself.

He said, "I am not a good person, I have done enough bad things, and I have committed many sins. What's more, since I also have the ability, why don't I protect the pervert? It doesn't hurt to leave her a world of ice and jade. It's better for me to do the insidious thing. Luckily, I still have some ability. If it were hard, I would never do such a thankless task. ”

This was said by Quan Zimo to Tang Di, because for a long time before, Tang Di didn't like her very much. felt that she had caused a lot of trouble for Quan Zimo, and Quan Zimo had caused a lot of criticism in order to protect her. So Quan Zimo said something to Tang Di.

"So what?" Lingse restrained his expression and asked in a calm tone as much as possible, "What did Quan Zimo do?" ”

"Wife, you know, there are many things that I can't come forward for. Even if I talk to Zhang Deliang about the conditions, I can't come forward in person, in order to prevent leaving a handle for others. So those things were all discussed by Quan Zimo for me. Including, Zhang Deliang took you to blackmail me and asked me to postpone my appointment, and this matter was also mediated by Quan Zimo as an intermediary. ”

The long eyelashes trembled violently, and he was silent for a long time before Lingse asked: "So, all the troubles caused by me, all the concessions you made in order to protect me, among them, have the right to Zimo's participation?" ”

"Well, it's all his involvement." Ye Chengshu hummed softly, and stroked Lingse's head with his big palm, very gently.

"Ye Chengshu, why are you telling me this?"

"Wife. What's going on in your little head? Ye Chengshu asked with a smile, "Do you think I told you these things to test the relationship between you and Quan Zimo?" ”

"Otherwise, why else?" Lingse also asked rhetorically. The gossip between her and Quan Zimo has never stopped. Even if she has married Ye Chengshu as his wife, those gossips have not stopped for a moment. Ye Chengshu will be suspicious, this is normal. If she wasn't the party, I'm afraid she would also think that she had some underground relationship with Quan Zimo or something.

"Quan Zimo and I are not friends or companions, but I believe in him more than anyone else. And you, you are my wife," as he spoke, Ye Chengshu reached out and picked up Lingse's chin, making her look at him, and he said word by word: "My wife, if I still don't trust it, then who can I trust?" ”

"I don't have any doubts about the two of you." Afraid that Lingse's little head would speculate again, Ye Chengshu reiterated and said: "You and Quan Zimo are very innocent." I've always known that. ”

"Then you suddenly said that Quan Zimo is-"

"It's to give you a real understanding of Quan Zimo." Ye Chengshu tugged at the corners of his mouth, and said casually: "Wife, although you know that Quan Zimo thinks about you everywhere, you seem to have always been a little prejudiced against him. You always feel that he lingers on the mahjong table every day, drinks and enjoys with others every day, and thinks that he is not doing his job properly and is idle. Am I right? ”

What Ye Chengshu was going to say next, Lingse felt that she seemed to have guessed a little. She was a little resistant, she didn't want to know. Because, that will subvert her understanding of Quan Zimo all along. She was afraid.

I'm afraid that I have always misunderstood Quan Zimo and thought of him too badly. I'm even more afraid, afraid that he is too good to herself, and she can't afford it.

But Ye Chengshu seems to have to make Lingse black and white today, he didn't see Lingse's resistance, but he chose to ignore it. said directly: "Quan Zimo went to play mahjong to send money to others." Every time he played mahjong, he would lose a lot of money. He did it on purpose. Because he loses money to others, they will help him do things. No, strictly speaking, to help you get rid of those troubles. ”

"Wife, say something nasty. Now Quan Zimo's position is very stable, and he no longer needs to use the measurement of deliberately losing money to win people's hearts and relationships. Everything he has done during this period of time is actually to help you and help me wipe my ass. Because something happened to you, I can't be left alone. Quan Zimo helping you is also equivalent to helping me. For our husband and wife, Quan Zimo is a benefactor. ”

Lingse didn't speak, and was silent. She leaned her little face against Ye Chengshu's chest, and Ye Chengshu couldn't see her expression. From her slightly trembling shoulders, we can only speculate on her inner emotions and thoughts at the moment.

"Outsiders can misunderstand Quan Zimo, that is, they don't understand Quan Zimo, and Quan Zimo doesn't care about other people's opinions. But only you, wife, are the only ones who can't misunderstand Quan Zimo. So many things he does, it's all for you. You shouldn't misunderstand him. People all over the world can misunderstand that Quan Zimo is idle and does not do his job. But how can you think of him that way? Isn't it all about drinking and socializing with people every day to help you? Do you think Quan Zimo likes the bright nightlife so much? You are wrong, since childhood, Quan Zimo has been a very quiet person. Compared with everyone playing together, Quan Zimo prefers to stay alone in the shade of a tree, read a book, and sleep. He actually doesn't like to socialize. In the past, he shuttled from place to place, for his own business and his own connections. And now, Quan Zimo is doing that, but it's just for you. ”

"I ......" Lingse hesitated for a long time before he said softly: "Actually, I have no misunderstanding about Quan Zimo. I know that he seems to be very frivolous and romantic, but in fact, he is more delicate than anyone else, and knows how to be considerate. But I can't pierce this layer of window paper. Ye Chengshu, do you know, for Quan Zimo, I have always been very complicated in my heart. ”

"Hmm." Ye Chengshu hummed, signaled that he was listening, and motioned for Lingse to continue.

"Actually, a long time ago, I had a little thought in my heart, I thought, maybe I would get together with Quan Zimo. Because in the black world of my childhood, there was only Quan Zimo, which was colored. All the memories related to Quan Zimo are beautiful. I used to really think I was going to be with Kwon Zimo. Speaking of this, Ling smiled bitterly, "Ye Chengshu, isn't it good for me to say this in front of you?" ”

"Nothing bad." Ye Chengshu shook his head and said gently: "It's not that I can't understand the relationship between you and Quan Zimo. If these things are put on me, I may also have a good impression of Quan Zimo. Because, before I, before Xiao Nai appeared, the only person who would be good to you was him, didn't he? ”

"Yes, before you and Xiao Nai appeared, the only person who was really good to me was Quan Zimo." Only him. So she really once fantasized about what it would be like for her to be with Quan Zimo. The results are very frustrating. The end of her fantasies, without exception, ended in tragedy.

It's not that she doesn't have a good relationship with Quan Zimo, it's just that she's too insecure. And Quan Zimo is a person who makes women feel insecure. He will flirt with every woman, but he will not give his heart to anyone. Even for her, he may be more affectionate than a man and a woman.

She thought that Quan Zimo might have had the same idea as her. But in the end, they all took the initiative to dispel this idea for one reason or another. After that, they didn't think about it at all.

I don't know what to do, and I go deep.

Because I don't know when that love started, I don't even know when it ended.

In the final analysis, they may only sigh one sentence, the love is deep and shallow.

"But before that idea could take shape, I dismissed it. Because Quan Zimo always looks like he is smiling, no one can guess what he really thinks in his heart. I thought afterwards that it would be better to go on like this than end up in tragedy. Becoming friends with Quan Zimo must be happier than being his girlfriend. ”

Ye Chengshu was happy, smiled and nodded, "This is not false at all. Being Quan Zimo's friend is the happiest thing. But if you really become his woman, it will be a disaster. Utter disaster. ”

In fact, thinking about it now, if she and Quan Zimo didn't have any concerns at that time, maybe, as long as they each took such a small step, no, as long as they didn't take that step back, perhaps, they would be together now.

Quan Zimo, the spirit didn't catch it. Xiao Nai, Lingse didn't catch it either. Whether it was because of her own problems or because of someone else's frame-up, she didn't catch these two people. Now, she doesn't want to let go of Ye Chengshu anymore. Only Ye Chengshu, she wants to catch it completely this time. Because, she can no longer bear the pain of losing her beloved.

As if thinking of the possibility of losing Ye Chengshu, Lingse held his big palm in fear. Ye Chengshu also responded to her gently, interlocking his fingers with her.

Such an inseparable contact made Lingse feel at ease.

With this peace of mind, she has the courage to say what she thinks next.

She said: "Ye Chengshu, I know that Quan Zimo is good to me, and he has done a lot of things for me. I also forced myself to do a lot of things for me. However, I didn't dare to pierce it. Because I'm afraid that if I break it, I don't know how to face Quan Zimo. At first, I thanked him and wanted him to know how grateful I was to him. But he always looks like a hippie smile. Even I can't figure out what he thinks. Over time, he could avoid it, and I didn't mention it. ”

"I think Quan Zimo can avoid it, maybe it's the same as your wife."

Lingse didn't understand, she frowned slightly, "What do you mean?" ”
