Chapter 91-92: Temptation/Helplessness
Woo I passed for nearly 40 minutes, it's not that I'm not punctual, I can't come up, I can't come up, the starting point has been pumping, pumping, pumping
The burning pain of "Sizzle......" made the originally frowning brows stretch, and slowly pressed the cigarette butt in his hand to the ashtray, Liu Zhengxing dialed Luo Zhenggang's special line, "Xiao Luo, hurry up and come over." βγ
Three minutes later, Luo Zhenggang hurried over, "Secretary, is there anything urgent?" β
"Sit down and say......" On the pale cheeks that have not seen the sun for a long time, a warm smile that is different from the past appeared, "Our brothers haven't communicated for a long time, take advantage of the time to communicate well." β
Luo Zhenggang's heart trembled, didn't he want to urge him to sign contracts with those engineering companies in advance? Some time ago, I stubbornly stated my concerns about those companies, but they stopped them with a sentence - don't just look at the superficial phenomenon.
Originally, I was a little complacent about the big fat meat of the new city renovation falling on me, but now I really feel that this is a hot potato, I can't throw it away, I can't eat it, if I'm not careful, maybe my life will be lost here.
"Zhenggang ......" Liu Zhengxing leaned forward and patted Luo Zhenggang affectionately, "Mayor Yang has been working hard to communicate with the above for the project approval over there, I believe that the day of approval will not be too far away, the burden on your body is about to be heavy, be mentally prepared, right?" β
"If it's done, I will do a good job of the quality of the new city, the secretary can rest assured." Luo Zhenggang's heart jumped suddenly, sure enough, it was for this matter, let him build tofu scum with his conscience, he couldn't do it, but he couldn't do it if he abandoned his family.
Liu Zhengxing's face flashed a trace of depression, he had never seen such a brainless thing, thinking of the business to be done today, he put on a smiling face, "Yes, the quality problem is indeed the top priority, and the company that wins the bid to contract the project must be supervised." β
"I will." Luo Zhenggang secretly wondered that the other party hadn't mentioned the key issues yet, which was not like his usual style.
"I don't worry about you doing things, that is, I will be used to telling you." Liu Zhengxing leaned comfortably on the back of the chair, "I, I often unconsciously think of you as the hairy boy who rushes forward in a daze, hehe......"
"Thank you for the secretary's appreciation and promotion." Luo Zhenggang became more and more unsure of the other party's purpose for looking for him.
"I can't say that, but you've helped me a lot, by the way, I heard that your father came to the island city, is it true?" Liu Zhengxing looked helpless, "At that time, it was really inconvenient to put this courtyard alone in the Eight Grand Temples, and some things were always realized later." β
"My father came back with Ye Er Feng'er, and he will stay with me in the future." Luo Zhenggang smiled apologetically, "Considering that the secretary is too busy, I didn't mention it." β
"That's what you're wrong, we came out of a place, the two old men are still cousins who have just come out of the five-pronged world, let's take time for the two of us to get together together, so that the old men can also be happy."
"Obey the secretary's arrangement." Luo Zheng just glanced at the time, could it be that he was called to idle him? Recently, he has really become fragrant, but he can be sure that Liu Zhengxing does not know about the Wen family, and he firmly believes that Yang Songping will not tell Liu Zhengxing about this, the Yang family? Yes, is Liu Zhengxing's attitude because of the Yang family?
"Zhenggang, it seems that you don't treat me as a brother." Liu Zhenggang shook his head and sighed: "I have always regarded you as my own brother." β
"How can it, the secretary is my Bole, my brother, what I can't do is in place, please correct the secretary." Thinking of the crux of the matter, Luo Zhenggang was calm.
"When did you learn to speak so well?" Liu Zhengxing's words changed: "Then let me ask you, why didn't Ye'er tell me about Ye'er's happy event?" Anyway, I'm her uncle, too. β
"Secretary, if there is any happy event, it is all spread by outsiders, if there is really one, how can I not tell you." Luo Zhenggang, who was mentally prepared, was calm and calm.
"Zhenggang, I won't tell you, Xingxing has long liked Ye'er, your sister-in-law wanted to propose a kiss, but I stopped her, it's not that I don't like Ye'er, it's that I think the child is too young, I think about it in two years, how can I think that it will make people take the lead."
This morning, your sister-in-law came to the office and scolded me severely, not long after leaving. Liu Zhengxing sighed lightly, "I'm not qualified to be a father, by the way, you said that the marriage between the Yang family and the Luo family was spread randomly?" You give me the truth, what the hell is going on? β
He inquired about Yang Songping on the side, and the other party told him that Yang Xing had taken a fancy to Luo Ye, and parents must do their best for their children.
For this kind of statement, he would only believe it if he was a fool, and what puzzled him the most was that the Yang family seemed to be afraid that others would not know that they were going to marry the Luo family, so they deliberately let the news spread quickly, could it be that there was something about the Luo family that the Yang family was afraid of?
If that's really the case, there are some things that he has to change his way of, and the candidates have to be reconsidered, so as not to plant them when they get it, which is why he hurriedly found Luo Zhenggang.
"Secretary, I can't hide this from anyone, since you have said this, I might as well tell the truth, Mayor Yang did intend to let Ye Er and Yang Xing be together, but now something has gone wrong.
We made an appointment with Mayor Yang's family for dinner tonight, I hope there will be a good solution to the matter," Luo Zhenggang sighed in embarrassment, "Hey, the Yang family can take a fancy to Ye'er, and it is also Ye'er's blessing, who ever thought that it would be extraneous." β
Liu Zhengxing shook his head in disappointment, "That's it, I thought I was going to drink Ye'er's marriage wine, by the way, what went wrong?" Do you want me to help mediate? β
"It's really hard to mediate this matter, it's not that I don't tell the secretary, it's that this cold guy really doesn't know where to start, I take the liberty of making an invitation, if the secretary has time in the evening, is it okay to be together?" In a flash of thought, Luo Zhenggang felt that letting the other party know something was also a good way to solve the problem, and he believed that he could buffer the pressure.
Liu Zhengxing pondered for a while, and happily responded, "Okay, I also like Ye'er, so let's go and join in the fun." He was waiting for this invitation, and he had a hunch that he would definitely get the answer he wanted at the banquet.
"Thank you, secretary, with you in charge, I believe things will be much easier." Luo Zhenggang's words are sincere, the relationship between him and Liu Zhengxing is clear to everyone, yes, the other party going together is not only harmless to the matter, but also makes the Yang family feel that he really attaches importance to this matter.
Liu Zhengxing's curiosity helped him a lot.
β¦β¦
Jagged short hair, off-white slacks with a fruit green T-shirt, and a pair of light beige leather sandals, Yang Xing looked at himself in the mirror, beautiful and white teeth flashed, but Wang Qi frowned, "Son, why do you have to choose a fruit green T-shirt, my mother always thinks that it looks good, but it is not formal enough." β
"Mom, Ye'er likes fruit green, she will understand my mind." Yang Xing's face was smug, "I'll be my fiancΓ©e soon, see if she can't pretend in the future." β
"Xing'er, even if your affairs are settled, it is impossible to get engaged for the time being, after all, age is there, it can't cause too much gossip, and besides, Xiaoyang called at noon, and my mother didn't want to miss the child, so I told her about you and Ye'er."
Wang Qi sighed, "Actually, my mother likes Xiaoyang a lot, that kid is really not picky about your infatuation, and it is a good match with our family, if it weren't for your father and son who recognized Luo Ye, she was really the best candidate." β
Yang Xing looked indifferent, "Just tell it, anyway, she will know sooner or later." β
Wang Qi frowned, "Son, can you tell me, do you really like Luo Ye or is it because your father said something about her family?" β
Yang Xing showed a faint smile: "Mom, what kind of hope is it?" β
"It's very contradictory, in principle, if it's the second one, it will make your future development better, but it's not fair to Luo Ye." Wang Qi looked at his son with research, "People say that they know their son Mo Ruomu, but my mother is really not sure what you think." β
Yang Xing stepped forward and hugged Wang Qi, "You are my mother, I'll tell you the truth, Luo Ye is indeed the type I like, but if I am infatuated with her just a few sides, I don't even believe in myself, so I can say that there are both aspects, but I think this is also God's love for me, right?" β
Wang Qi breathed a sigh of relief, "I understand, Mom has been worrying about this matter for the past few days, it's good that you can think like this." β
"I'm afraid that I have a daughter-in-law, forget my mother, and forget my future? Mom, you underestimate me. Yang Xing looked at the time, "Let's go to Luo's house and pick up Aunt Luo and Luo Ye to go to the hotel together, right?" β
"Stinky boy, I'm a little skeptical of your answer again, when have you ever been so careful with me?" Wang Qi slapped his son on the head, "Maybe it's a sweet mouth, deliberately coaxing." β
"You just coax you to me, that means I value my mother, doesn't it?" The mother and son talked and laughed and went downstairs, but met Song Xiaoyang who came in a hurry halfway, Yang Xing looked surprised, "Xiaoyang, why are you here?" β
"I'm your best friend, how can I not come if you're married?" The sadness in Song Xiaoyang's eyes was clearly visible, but there was a sweet smile on his face, Wang Qi was a little sad for a while, and hugged her, "You kid, I wouldn't tell you if I knew this." β
Song Xiaoyang hugged Wang Qi affectionately, "Auntie, can you tell me this, it means that you are not an outsider, I am very happy, I hung up the phone, hesitated for a while, and then decided to rush over, Ye'er is my godsister, Yang Xing is my best friend, how can I miss such a big day?" β
"It may be that the aunt made a mistake, today it was just a dinner and discussion between the parents of both sides to discuss this matter, not a marriage, it is not a big deal." Wang Qi cupped Song Xiaoyang's somewhat messy hair in distress, "You kid is tired, by the way, do you know about the family here?" β
"I don't know, I didn't tell them." Song Xiaoyang looked at Yang Xing with a smile: "Why don't you say a word?" I came all the way here, and I didn't feel moved at all? β
"Moved, hehe...... especially moved, I just feel a little sorry for you, Xiaoyang, thank you, thank you really" Yang Xing was rare and serious, when he saw Song Xiaoyang just now, he thought that the other party was here to make trouble, but he didn't expect it to be like this, such generosity really made him feel guilty.
"After chasing for so many years, I haven't made you like me, which means that I'm still not good enough, but I know that you have met someone you really like, and I am happy for you, and I hope you can be happy." Song Xiaoyang smiled embarrassedly, "Auntie, don't laugh at me, I really think so." β
"Xiaoyang, you kid is really distressing." Wang Qi didn't know what to say for a while, she understood that this child was also fighting for the last ray of hope for herself, but no matter what, she was moved by people's hearts for her son.
Yang Xing looked at Song Xiaoyang with a little embarrassment, "Xiaoyang, my mother and I are going to pick up Luo Ye and Aunt Wen, are you together or ......?"
Song Xiaoyang looked entangled, "I haven't seen Luo Ye for a long time, I miss her a lot, but I don't know if she will be unhappy when she sees me, after all, some things have changed." β
Wang Qi sighed, "Xiaoyang, let's go together, Luo Ye is a reasonable child, you have come all the way, she will understand." β
"Thank you, Auntie" Song Xiaoyang's eyes were full of smiles, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Ye'er, are you happy to see me?" Knocking on the door of Luo's house, Song Xiaoyang was the first to jump in.
"Sister Xiaoyang, I'm so happy to see you, I miss you to death" Luo Ye hugged Song Xiaoyang enthusiastically, feeling like a reunion of sisters who hadn't seen each other for many years, but Song Xiaoyang was stunned.
"Sister-in-law, I'm really sorry to bother you to come over." Wen Wen hurriedly greeted him.
Wang Qi smiled and held the warmth, "Yang Xing, this kid can't wait, he wants to come and pick you up, hehe, we will soon become parents, why are you so polite?" βγ
Wen Wen's face flashed unnaturally, and he smiled, "Then let's go now." He turned around and shouted, "Dad, Feng'er, let's go." β
"Sister Xiaoyang, when did you come?" Along the way, Luo Ye held Song Xiaoyang affectionately, but it made her more and more uncertain, did she really not understand or didn't care, or pretended to be ......
"Not long after I arrived, I heard that my godsister's big day was rude if I didn't come?" Song Xiaoyang smiled and took out a gift box: "The gift is given to you in advance." β
Luo Ye hurriedly pushed back, "Sister Xiaoyang, don't do it yet, this gift will be given when the time is right." β
"What's the difference between morning and night?" Song Xiaoyang smiled puzzled.
"It's different." Luo Ye smiled playfully, "I'll know then." β
While speaking, when he arrived at the gate of the compound, a taxi happened to drive over, Yang Xing hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop, "Aunt Wen, you and grandpa and my mother will go first, let's wait for the next one." β
When the next car arrived, Yang Xing chose the co-pilot very graciously, and Luo Feng, who was originally disgusted with him because of his kraft candy style, glanced at him unexpectedly, and his impression changed a little.
Song Xiaoyang got into the car, but he didn't mention the gift again, but pulled up with Luo Yedong, the corners of a certain leaf's lips hooked slightly, and he was in a happy mood - today is really a good day
β¦β¦
When the group arrived at the hotel, the elders were all there, and when they saw Liu Zhengxing chatting with their grandfather, Luo Ye couldn't help the disgust in his heart and greeted, "Uncle Liu is also here?" β
"Yes, Ye'er's matter, of course Uncle is coming." Liu Zhengxing greeted Song Xiaoyang, who greeted Yang Songping, warmly: "Xiaoyang is also here?" β
"Uncle Liu, I'm here too, of course my godsister's happy day is coming." Song Xiaoyang took advantage of the greeting and sat down next to Yang Xing as if unintentionally, Yang Xing secretly glanced at Luo Ye beside him, and saw that her expression was as usual, and quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
Yang Songping glanced at the two seats that were still empty, "Zhenggang, are there any guests who haven't arrived?" β
"Yes, there are two more who haven't arrived." Luo Zhenggang looked at the time, "It should be almost up, which is why I want to invite Mayor Yang today, hey, it's embarrassing."
"Why did you ask us?" Yang Songping was stunned, "Isn't it to discuss the matter of Xingxing and Ye'er?" What's so hard about it? β
Luo Zhenggang nodded, "Yes, it's for Ye'er's business, but there has been a little change, let's talk about it later." β
"Okay, then wait." Yang Songping looked at his wife, Wang Qi shook his head, Liu Zhengxing, who had been secretly pondering the meaning of a few people's words, was also confused, and Song Xiaoyang's smile was a little sweeter.
"Zhenggang, we're not late, are we?" When the hour and minute hands coincided at six o'clock, Jiang Zheng and Yexuan arrived and sat next to Luo Zhenggang and Luo Ye respectively.
Luo Zhenggang smiled and said, "It's not too late, it's not too late, you guys are really punctual." β
"Jiang Zheng, when did you come?" Liu Zhengxing felt that he had grasped a little vein, but it seemed that something was not quite right.
Jiang Zheng said with a smile: "Yesterday, I came over for a meeting, and by the way, I was entrusted by someone to do something." β
"Mayor Yang, let me introduce you to these two, Jiang Zheng, is my best friend, this is Ye Xuan, Jiang Zheng's colleague, and at the same time, ...... "Luo Zhenggang paused" is the husband that Ye'er's grandfather chose for her. β
Husband? Luo Zhenggang said this in a crepe, but the meaning was very clear, everyone's eyes were turned to Yexuan, except for Yang Songping's family, everyone else was a little confused, and they didn't understand where Luo Ye's grandfather was.
Luo Ye Gray often cooperated with him shyly and timidly lowered his little head, but his stomach was about to laugh, Uncle Jiang was really powerful, and he didn't dare to go to his grandfather to verify it.
Song Xiaoyang endured surprise and excitement and looked at Yexuan again, this tall and handsome man caused her to be amazed when he came in, but she didn't expect this kind of identity.
However, this man is really cool and handsome, especially the pair of dark purple eyes, which are deep and charming, if it weren't for Yang Xing in her heart, she would probably fall into it and couldn't extricate herself.
"Zhenggang, what you said is true?" Yang Songping's face was a little gloomy, "Why didn't I mention this matter when Xingxing and I came to the door before?" β
"Mayor Yang, I didn't know about this matter before, I have to ask the elders for the opinions of this non-child matter, the child's grandfather was furious when he heard it, saying that I played the piano indiscriminately, and the child was worried about this matter at such a young age, and he had already chosen a good husband for Ye'er, and he originally planned to talk about it in two years.
It happened that Yexuan was going to come here on a business trip with Jiang Zheng, so the child's grandfather asked him to come over by the way to meet Ye'er first. Luo Zhenggang looked bitter, "My identity, in the child's grandfather, I don't have the right to speak at all, I'm ashamed of Mayor Yang." β
Yang Xing had already recognized Yexuan as the man he met last night, looking at his clothes, he was very annoyed, the other party was wearing a set of dark gray casual clothes, looking mature and stable, he really looked like a foil Xiaodouding.
But I have to say that he is recuperating well, and he is not annoyed and angry like an ordinary child, but calmly approaches Wang Qi and whispers a few words.
Yang Songping was also looking at Yexuan, his son compared with the other party, and he really fell behind, he was disappointed in his heart, listened to his wife's whisper, and then looked at Luo Zhenggang angrily, "I don't know what the identity of the child's grandfather's family is, I just want to know, this young man came yesterday, why didn't Mayor Luo ventilate in advance and give us a psychological preparation?"
Early this morning, Xingxing was busy with this matter, I believe Mayor Luo also knows that there are probably few families in the compound who don't know about my Yang family's proposal to the Luo family, if you don't have the intention, you can refuse it at the time, how can you play us like this? β
"Mayor Yang, I really don't know how to speak, if it's not embarrassing, how embarrassed to bring Secretary Liu to accompany me, you can also see from this posture how much I attach importance to this matter......" Luo Zhenggang pretended to hesitate "Luo Ye's grandfather's family is the Wen family of the six families, and Mayor Yang's family background should be able to understand my suffering."
The old man meant to let Yexuan and Ye'er get along for a while first, and if the two children felt that it was appropriate, they would decide what would happen in the future, the old man was still very democratic. β
Liu Zhengxing quietly wiped a cold sweat, he and Luo Zhenggang have known each other for so many years, and he has never heard that Luo Zhenggang has anything to do with the Wen family of the Six Families.
Then doubts arose, since Luo Zhenggang had such a strong background, why did he agree to his conditions? Could it be that this is just a pretense?
That's it, it's a big deal to watch a play, he just goes back and sends someone to investigate.
Yang Songping kept his head down and was silent, feeling as if he was digesting the big news that Luo Zhenggang had just exposed, and raised his head for a while, "Zhenggang, I do understand your suffering, but have you understood my family's situation and the old man?" Maybe let Xingxing compete fairly with this Mr. Night? β
"No," Luo Xuan's magnetic voice sounded categorically.
Everyone's eyes were on him, but they didn't expect him to suddenly interject.
"I said no," Ye Xuan emphasized again, and stretched out his long arm to wrap his arms around Luo Ye's shoulder, "My Ye family's granddaughter-in-law, how can others covet it?" β
"Nighthouse?" Yang Songping pondered for a moment, "You won't tell me that you are the night of the six families, right?" β
"That's right" Ye Xuan smiled faintly, exuding a majestic momentum around his body.
"My Yang family is not necessarily much worse than the Ye family, not to mention that Old Man Wen means that you and Ye'er get along properly before you can be considered in-laws, what qualifications do you have to be the master of Luo Ye?" Yang Songping looked at Luo Zhenggang, "Zhenggang, I hope you can discuss this matter with the old man and give the child a chance to choose." β
Luo Zhenggang's ambiguous answer before was naturally to fulfill the lie in the future, after all, as time goes by, it will inevitably arouse suspicion, but I didn't expect that Yang Songping would be so persistent.
