Chapter 352: What a Person!
Antian Town was originally just a small village, but also thanks to the rapid development of Huahai economy in recent years by the merger of several small villages nearby, according to the unified planning of the Huahai Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, here because of the proximity to Sudong Province, originally in East China County many high-tech agricultural resources have been relocated here, and now has built the largest vegetable and meat and poultry breeding base in Huahai, which is the only remaining area in Huahai that is still related to agriculture. Of course, Huahai now has a population of nearly 14 million, and the production and processing capacity of this small town alone is far from meeting the daily supply of vegetable baskets in Huahai City.
Chen Yang has always attached great importance to the people's livelihood project, but today he did not come to inspect the largest agricultural and sideline products trading market in East and South China, which had just been built here, but his purpose was related to the military subdivision, that is, the idle barracks and family areas of nearly 100 acres belonging to the military subdivision.
Before coming here, Chen Yang originally planned to take a good walk and see if he could come up with some way to receive this piece of land reserved for the military region to the government, but he didn't expect that something went wrong halfway, and it happened that he met Mr. Tian's son, and this Tian Gongzi was unlucky to hit him, but he inadvertently let him remove a potential hidden danger. Next, let the city come forward to negotiate with the military subdistrict. As much as possible to transfer this idle land to the local government, with the current financial resources of the city government, it should not be too much of a problem. In this way, it is also avoided that some people with ill intentions are always staring at this idle military land.
Of course, Chen Yang actually knows very well in his heart that even if he can thwart the dreams of some careerists in Huahai, there is not much he can do nationwide, at least, there is only so much he can do now.
Stand on one of the highest hills in Yasuda. Chen Yang stared at the high-tech greenhouse compound breeding base in the distance. I didn't say a word for a long time.
After a long time, his somewhat depressed state of mind gradually became clearer, yes, at this delicate stage. As long as you do what you have to do, it's actually enough. I believe that there will come a day. All the sins hidden in the dark corners will be exposed to the world, and I am now a little mediocre.
Yes, justice may be late. However, Chen Yang firmly believes that justice will never be absent.
Lin Yu, who had been following Chen Yang closely, could most clearly feel even the slightest change in Chen Yang's feelings, and noticed that Chen Yang's mood was gradually cheerful, and after the look in his eyes flew up again, Lin Yu also seemed to empathize with the general mood and improved, she pretended to be aggrieved and asked, "Husband, how long do we have to stand here, everyone is hungry." β
Chen Yang turned his head when he heard this, and reached out with a smile on his face and pinched Lin Yu's smooth face: "I told you to go eat something with Lao Pan first, but you refused, and said that you were not hungry at all, why, now that you are hungry, you are angry with me?" β
Lin Yu was not annoyed when he was teased by his sweetheart, but stepped forward affectionately and hugged Chen Yang's arm, and said: "People are hungry now, anyway, you have to accompany me to eat now, and ah, people are not little girls anymore, can you pinch people's faces at every turn in the future." β
"Hehe, that's not good, besides, if I don't pinch it, do you still want others to pinch it?" Chen Yang smiled and pinched Lin Yu's blown-out face again.
"Oh, you, you're necrotic, that's not what people mean!" Lin Yu stomped his feet and said with infinite shyness.
Chen Yang laughed out loud and pulled Lin Yu towards the bottom of the mountain
For Chen Yang, the happy time with beauty is always short-lived, and Lin Yu had to report back to the group at Chen Yang's request after staying in Huahai for two days of vacation. Although Chen Yang had tried his best to spend time with her in the past two days, the infinitely attached and lost expression on her face before leaving Huahai still made Chen Yang feel full of emotion whenever she thought about it after work.
Of course, life has to go on, and for Chen Yang, even more so, as the so-called greater ability, greater responsibility, and now Chen Yang has a deep understanding of the true meaning of this sentence.
And some of the things that happened one after another during this period also fermented one after another not long after Lin Yu left Huahai, faintly setting off an uproar in Huahai, but in the end, it was stopped because of the silence in some aspects.
Indeed, many times, politics is so ridiculous and helpless.
First of all, on the issue of Comrade Zhang Yuan, commander of the military sub-district and member of the Standing Committee of the Huahai City CPC Committee, since the emergency Standing Committee convened under the auspices of Chen Yang, the Huahai City CPC Committee quickly formed a special meeting and handed it over to the Central Committee, but soon some political forces attached to Zhang Yuan immediately launched activities, but because Huahai was under the leadership of Chen Yang, the characterization of Comrade Zhang Yuan's problem was extremely bad, especially the self-examination documents of several heavyweight Standing Committee members attached to the article left the issue without any room for mediationIn the end, he still did not keep Zhang Yuan's position as commander and standing committee member of the military division, less than half a month after the incident, Zhang Yuan was transferred to a military region in the west to serve as an idle post, although his military rank was not reduced, but it is conceivable that his political life has completely come to an end, and what will be left to him in the future is probably only infinite resentment and remorse for Chen Yang, the person who ruined his life.
Under the influence of the strong political appeal of the Huahai Public Security Organ, the two Japanese friends quickly explained their problems, and they honestly explained their real purpose of studying in China for many years, mainly to make friends with some so-called upper-class people to achieve their purpose of stealing some important financial information in China, that is, the so-called commercial espionage. In view of the conclusive evidence, they signed a confession that they themselves could not understand, and soon they were handed over to the national security authorities, where endless remorse and even more daunting cruelty awaited them. Of course, these measures of the Huahai police undoubtedly aroused strong protests from the Japanese side, especially the family consortium behind the two, and spared no effort to rescue them, but it is a pity. In front of the two soft-boned autographed confessions. Even if their families have money, it will be difficult to get them out of the national security.
For Chen Yang, these two goods are just a digression, and they are all caused by the outright national hatred of the Japanese that he has buried deep in his bones. Plus these two unlucky bastards have a way to go. I just wanted to bump into Chen Yang headlong. Then they can only blame themselves for not having long eyes.
And in the end, after Chen Yang linked this series of events, he faintly realized that all these things. It seems that they are all somewhat related to Mayor Lin Kun, especially the family consortium behind the two Japanese couples, and under the leadership of Lin Kun, Huahai inspected the investment environment, although this matter is completely yellow, but Chen Yang still has a somewhat different view of Lin Kun, first of all, this person is indeed very capable and decisive, from the fact that he can quickly clear up the relationship with Mr. Tian and the two large Japanese consortiums in a timely manner, it can be seen that one or two, secondly, Lin Kun's lack of principle and only want to improve his own political achievements, it also made Chen Yang feel a little uncomfortable, after all, the cadres at the level of Lin Kun are very different from those cadres who are dedicated to political performance projects at the grassroots level, many times, at the level of Lin Kun, the consideration of the problem is obviously much more far-reaching, otherwise once any wrong decision is made, the loss will be much greater and more terrifying than that of the grassroots cadres.
It's just that although Chen Yang is aware, but for Lin Kun, he still wants to observe his words first, and then decide how to get along with him, after all, no matter what, as long as he stays in Huahai, no matter how Lin Kun tosses, he still can't turn the sky, on the contrary, if he rashly moves Lin Kun, even if he can really take him down very lightly, he will definitely give the above a bad impression that he can't tolerate people.
It is precisely because of such a consideration that in the following time, Chen Yang has always been very low-key, and he has always adhered to the trust in the work of the municipal government, and let them do things, and has put forward a series of new development plans proposed by the municipal government, especially the large-scale project on the reorganization of the old city of Huahai, which has also been passed by the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, which makes Lin Kun himself feel a little incredible. He originally thought that it would take a long time of arduous struggle to win over a big project, but he didn't expect that on the side of the municipal party committee, in fact, Chen Yang nodded and agreed without much thought.
In the busy work, time flies, soon, in the midsummer of July and August, in the domestic economic development center of the international Cheng dΓΉ quite high Huahai, walking on the street, everywhere you can see the beautiful and handsome guys dressed in fashion, especially in summer, the streets and alleys of the beauties are even more dizzying, compared with winter, it is simply two worlds, people can't help but sigh why so many beauties in this year?
At this moment, there are three beauties of all sizes sitting in the secretary office of the Huahai Municipal Party Committee and Chen Yang, the difference is that two of the young girls are dressed in cool clothes, both dressed in hot short skirts and long boots, with heavy makeup on their faces, which looks as if they have just slipped out of the nightclub, and the other slightly older beauty is obviously dressed up much more solemn and elegant, wearing a well-tailored suit and skirt, with light makeup on her face, goose egg face, apricot eyes and willow eyebrows, cherry mouth, look at her almost flawless face, a perfect interpretation of the so-called "three courts and five eyes" used to describe peerless beauties in ancient China.
Although the two young girls are out-and-out little beauties when they are outside, no matter how well they dress, carefully tweak, and stand next to this formal dress woman, people can't help but have a sympathetic feeling of "goods have to be thrown away, and people have to die compared to people".
The two girls are full of famous brands, and they know that they have a rich family background at a glance, and naturally they will not be stupid girls from the countryside, and the two girls are often not convinced by anyone on weekdays, but now there is a big beauty who is not at the same level as the two of them at all, but they are rare to have the same enemy, and they are talking about themselves in Chen Yang's big office. I didn't look at the big beautiful sister who brought them all the way to the side next to me, ignoring the existence of others, but from time to time they also popped out a few French words with a weird accent from their mouths, seemingly discussing a certain fashion show or the latest products launched by a certain big brand luxury this season, relying on others not to understand, and laughing at the big beautiful sister who has always maintained a warm smile on her face.
The French attainments of this big beautiful sister are definitely at the professional level, and the study of luxury goods is not at the same level as these two vulgar girls, which of the few women I know at home is not an expert and professor-level figure in this area, if I really take out an outdated bag from home, I am afraid that it will make these two vulgar girls widen their eyes and not close their mouths.
However, she has been sitting on the sofa with a very dignified posture at the moment, smiling lightly, although she guessed why these two stupid girls were lukewarm to herself on the way from the capital. But she really didn't feel any anger in her heart. One is that she has always been calm and indifferent, and she doesn't like to compete with others, and the other is that she has indeed experienced too many bad things that bring hatred because of her beauty, and she has long been accustomed to it.
"Secretary Chen. I've got it for you. If nothing else. I'll take my leave. After a few sips of hot tea, the beauty greeted Chen Yang with a smile, and was about to leave.
It's just that if you're a little more careful at this time. You will easily notice that this beautiful woman, who was unhappy with the two young girls, looked at Chen Yang at this time, but there was a trace of a strange taste of pantothenic acid, and she said goodbye and left, but she didn't even stand up, she sat on the sofa all the time, and even picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea after speaking.
If you can find this, then you will feel that this beauty's words and deeds at this time are a little weird. Also, you said that she didn't care what those two stupid girls said about hating herself, but whenever Chen Yang stared at those two stupid girls, she would quietly purse her lips, and when Chen Yang turned her gaze and looked at her, she deliberately looked away from her seriously, without any communication with Chen Yang's gaze towards her.
Regarding the farewell words of a big beauty, Chen Yang's left ear immediately came out of his right ear, and he didn't look over, his eyes were still wandering around the two stupid girls who didn't take his secretary's office seriously at all, and replied casually: "That's okay, that's hard for you, Director Min, you go and rest first." β
Seeing Chen Yang's appearance of not taking herself seriously, the beauty was so angry that she almost squirted out of the hot tea without a sip, she couldn't help but think viciously, hey, Secretary Chen, are you an official whose brain is burned out, and your aesthetics are completely distorted? What are you staring at them all the time? Am I not as beautiful as the two of them? Or do you think I'm old now? Hmph, I really didn't expect you Secretary Chen to be this kind of goods, seeing that other girls are younger and more thoughtful, I can't take my eyes off!
The beauty was unscrupulous in her stomach, but she had no intention of leaving, and coughed coldly, which finally attracted Chen Yang's attention.
"Hey, Director Min, didn't you just say you were leaving? Why haven't you left yet, is there anything else? Chen Yang said strangely.
Is it okay? If I don't keep an eye on it, you won't have to swallow these two little vixens in your stomach on the spot?
The big beauty secretly thought angrily that it was obvious that she was none other than Min Rou, who came to Huahai on business this time.
Min Rou's trip was with a few colleagues in the ministry, of course, the specific things she wanted to do on this trip naturally did not alarm Chen Yang at this level, that is, to do some work with the Organization Department of the Huahai Municipal Party Committee, and the reason why she appeared here was because before leaving Yanjing, Chen Yang suddenly called her, asking her to bring a few Yanjing students over by the way, she didn't know who it was, according to the information given by Chen Yang, after contacting her, she knew that it was a man and two women. The woman is naturally the two vulgar girls in front of her, and the other man is a graduate student at Yan University named Wang Jing, Wang Jing didn't follow the upstairs with some other things in front of her, so she led the two vulgar girls over first, and the joy of reuniting after a long absence was quickly diluted by Chen Yang's lukewarm attitude towards her, plus since entering this office, Chen Yang's curious and playful eyes have been staying on the two vulgar girls, which makes her even more jealous. It's not a taste of sourness in my heart.
Although she felt very uncomfortable, Min Rou was a veteran of officialdom, her face showed no traces, a formulaic smile on her face, and said politely to Chen Yang: "Hehe, Secretary Chen, I almost forgot, before coming to Huahai, Minister Yu specially explained to me and asked me to personally forward an important document to you." β
Min Rou's face was not red, and her heart was not beating and she told a big lie. Let's talk about it. Zhen, who was still worried, took out a yellow file bag from his side, stood up, and walked towards Chen Yang's desk generously.
How could an old fox like Chen Yang be so easily deceived, and he saw through Min Rou's little tricks at a glance. But he doesn't debunk it either. Instead, he smiled and pointed to the office desktop: "Okay." I'll leave it at that, I'll see it later. β
Min Rou was so angry that she almost vomited blood on the spot, she originally hoped that Chen Yang would take the opportunity to see Wen JiΓ n to drive those two stupid girls away. But who knew that Chen Yang was pretending to be confused, could it be that he really fell in love with those two girls?
But there was no way, there were outsiders present, Min Rou could only hold back the unhappiness and depression in her heart, slowly put the file bag on Chen Yang's desktop, and said seriously: "Oh, that's the case, Secretary Chen, Minister Yu specially explained, if you have anything unclear after reading the article, I will explain it to you." β
Obviously, Min Rou still refuses to leave.
Chen Yang was funny in his stomach, but he didn't break it, but smiled and waved his hand and said, "Hehe, you comrade, what's the matter?" I still need you to explain to me something that I don't know? β
Min Rou had been made by Chen Yang to lose control on the spot, but before she could get out of control, Chen Yang smiled and said: "Hehe, Director Min, I'll make a little joke, besides, if I really don't know something, I won't call you Minister Yu, okay, you've been working hard all the way for a long time, hurry up and go to the guest house to rest." β
Min Rou was like crying without tears when she heard this, and she wanted to have some reason to stay, but when she thought of Chen Yang's attitude, she was angry, and finally she couldn't bear it anymore, and after glaring at the smiling Chen Yang viciously, she couldn't say a word, turned around and left Chen Yang's office with high heels.
Lin Gang, who was in the secretary's office, naturally knew Min Rou, and when he saw Min Rou walking out of the boss's office with a lot of anger, he secretly wondered in his heart, but he couldn't say anything, and secretly thought that it would be better for the boss to be less involved in housework.
However, he quickly got up from his seat, greeted him with a smile on his face, and said to Min Rou: "Director Min, why don't you sit down with me first, and I'll go and make you another cup of hot tea?" β
Min Rou couldn't control her feelings at all, and burst out: "What kind of tea are you drinking, I'm almost full of anger from that dead man!" β
After finishing speaking, looking at Secretary Lin who was stunned and looking at her, she was shocked to realize that she had lost her words, her pretty face flew up two flushes, she lowered her head, and hurriedly rushed out of the office.
It wasn't until a long time after Min Rou left that Lin Rou was relieved from his stunned stunning, he opened his mouth and swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva before he could be considered to have returned to his normal state, and then shook his head again and again and silently recited in his heart: "I didn't hear anything, yes, I didn't hear anything."
Chen Yang naturally didn't know that his woman had a foreign appearance outside, and fortunately, he was in front of the people close to him, otherwise it would have attracted malicious speculation from many gossip people.
But at this time, he was not idle, after inviting Min Rou away, he didn't really do anything to these two Yan University female students as Min Rou imagined, just looked at these two girls, and thought a little puzzled: "Which one is the daughter-in-law of Director Wang?" Or, Wang Jing's kid brought back the two daughters-in-law to the old man? β
To be honest, as far as the personal qualities of these two girls are concerned, they naturally can't get into Chen Yang's eyes, only because Chen Yang's personal relationship with Wang Yun, director of the Central Committee's Office, is not bad, so he will take a few more glances at the girlfriend of Director Wang's son, but the information he got is that Wang Jing will bring his girlfriend to Huahai for an internship, but he didn't expect that the two of them will make Chen Yang also a rare little gossip.
Speaking of Wang Jing, the son of Wang Yun, director of the Central Office, Chen Yang has seen it once before, because of his identity as a regimental background and because he is also a capable officer trusted by the principal. Chen Yang will always get together with Director Wang almost as long as he finds time during the Chinese New Year, which is considered to be a contact with the relationship, and he has been to Wang's house a few times, but Chen Yang has not been very impressed by Wang Yun's son, mainly because Wang Jing is rarely at home and has fun. But it's someone else's business. How others discipline their sons has nothing to do with Chen Yang.
This time, Wang Jing came to Huahai. The main thing is to follow the mentor to conduct a research project in Huahai, and soon to hold a small-scale forum in Huahai, he came with the mentor, and Director Wang has a good personal relationship with Chen Yang. personally called Chen Yang and asked him to help keep an eye on his precious son. Obviously, he also knew that his son was a master who liked to cause trouble. If there is really no one to cover it, it is estimated that it will be too late to regret it.
Chen Yang is most annoyed by this kind of, but he has a good personal relationship with Wang Yun. Second, Wang Yun's position is very important in the political arena, the principal's housekeeper, that is not a joke, and in history, all the directors of the Central Office will become one of the elders, there has never been an exception, obviously, this Director Wang will enter the "bureau" in the next term is a sure thing, Chen Yang still has a lot of places to rely on Director Wang in the future, this face has to be given to others.
Fortunately, Wang Jing came here barely to work, not purely to play, and the time was not long, at most half a month, so Chen Yang didn't take it too seriously, anyway, as long as this guy didn't do something angry, he could easily settle it when he wanted to.
Seeing these two sisters giggling and giggling in his own dignified secretary's office, Chen Yang was even more disgusted in his heart, if it weren't for Director Wang's future daughter-in-law, he would have let people blow out, but this also confirmed Chen Yang's opinion of Wang Yun's baby son from another side, people are divided into groups.
Seeing that these two girls were really a bit unusual, Chen Yang was about to ask someone to ask them to go out and wait first, but at this moment, the door was pushed open, and Lin Gang walked in with a young and handsome young man.
Obviously, this fashionably dressed young man is Wang Jing, who Chen Yang has been waiting for for a long time.
Wang Jing is a child of an official family, and he has seen the world even when he is a child, and he has also met Chen Yang before, so he took the initiative to greet him: "Uncle Chen, hello, I am Wang Jing." β
"Hehe, sit down, Xiao Wang." Chen Yang was not polite, and beckoned the other party to sit down with a smile.
Wang Jing didn't sit down as he said, but said casually: "Uncle Chen, I think I still don't disturb your work, you are busy first, hehe, my father also specially explained before coming, Uncle Chen, you are a busy person, let me have nothing to do and don't bother you." β
Chen Yang didn't have a good impression of him, but he didn't have any bad feelings, since he didn't have the heart to stay and talk, Chen Yang was not reluctant, nodded with a smile and said: "That's okay, but, don't listen to your father, if you really encounter something difficult in Huahai, don't be afraid to cause trouble for your Uncle Chen." β
After a few polite words, Wang Jing slapped his ass and left, and even left with the two girls who had been impatient for a long time.
Chen Yang's office finally returned to a trace of tranquility.
Sitting at the desk, Chen Yang couldn't help but shake his head secretly, this kid doesn't look serious, it seems that he is also a master who can cause trouble. However, Chen Yang had seen a lot of things about Lao Tzu's heroes and bears, but he didn't care about it, and threw Wang Jing behind in an instant.
At this time, Lin Gang knocked on the door again, carried a boiling kettle in his hand, walked to Chen Yang's desk, and whispered while adding hot water to Chen Yang's teacup: "Secretary, I seem to have seen this young man coming from the direction of the government building just now." β
Chen Yang's eyebrows jumped slightly when he heard this, and he didn't say anything, just picked up the teacup, lay down on the senior chair and took a small sip of hot tea
In the parking lot at the bottom of the municipal party committee building, Wang Jing led two female companions to a black Ferrari convertible sports car with a grin.
With a bang, Wang Jing rang the Ferrari siren, and soon, the car door slowly opened, Wang Jing changed the cautious smiling face in Chen Yang's office, and snapped his fingers at the two female companions, and said with a cynical smile: "Let's go, the is finally done, let's go for a ride first." β
The two girls laughed and jumped into the car, and as soon as one of the girls got into the car, she complained coquettishly: "Jing Shao, where have you been going for so long, causing me and Weiwei to wait in the old antique office for most of the day, and we are almost suffocating to death." β
"What can you do, it's not like I went to worship another Bodhisattva first." Wang Jing started the car and replied casually.
"Hehe, Jing Shao, I didn't expect you to be really good, just now in that antique office, I saw you talking to people like that, one by one Uncle Chen, I almost couldn't recognize you as a suave young master." The girl named Vivi teased on the side.
"Cut, if the old man hadn't forced me, I would have been willing to be blind with that thing, and I don't know how cool it would be to have a happy time for us to be merry and happy!" Wang Jing said with a disdainful face.
"Hehe, Jing Shao, I don't think people are necessarily willing to take care of you, you didn't see that as soon as you said you were leaving, people didn't stop you and just opened the door to send off guests." Wei Wei grinned and continued to run Wang Jing.
Don't look at Wang Jing's indifferent son-in-law style, but Weiwei's unintentional words still made him very unhappy, compared to it, he first went to Mayor Lin Kun's office, and he was about to leave without two words, but Mayor Lin was so warm and polite, he insisted on leaving himself to talk nonsense for more than ten minutes, on the other hand, Chen Yang's side, looking polite, there was actually an indescribable sense of distance, in short, it made him feel a little uncomfortable.
Thinking of this, he suddenly became inexplicably angry, and pretended to be vicious and glared at the girl next to him: "You-, are you owed-again, believe it or not, buddy will poke you in this car!" β
"Hee-hee, yes, yes, it's been itching for a long time!" Weiwei doesn't look like a self-respecting and self-loving female college student at all, with a lewd and lewd face.
Seeing this, another girl named Xixi was not to be outdone, and said: "Brother Jing, you are so partial, people want it too" said, she completely ignored the fact that it was now in broad daylight, put a finger in her mouth and licked it, and the other hand was not idle, she actually reached into her skirt and touched herself
Wang Jing saw that his blood was boiling, and he scolded grassily: "Yes, it's still a hairy wind, let's go back to the hotel directly!" Then, as if he remembered something, he suddenly asked the two girls again: "Hey, by the way, what about Director Min who came with us?" Isn't she supposed to be with the two of you? β
"Brother Jing, you are necrotic, you are not allowed to mention that hypocritical slut! Otherwise, Sissy won't let you play. Xixi puffed up and stopped touching his hand.
Wei Wei on the side also immediately stuck to the enemy, hugged Wang Jing's neck, blew in his ear, and said in a greasy voice: "Jing Shao, you bad guy with no conscience, aren't we two sisters as good as that slut?" β
Wang Jing smiled dryly and enjoyed the service of the beauty, but at the same time thought with a little disdain: "Cao, just the two of you, let alone two, even if you are a hundred pairs of sisters compared to the woman surnamed Min, you are not even worthy of being a maid and pouring a night pot, buddy, if you haven't found time to soak that big beauty for the time being, what can you do with these two little!" β
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think of Min Rou's beautiful and charming face and sexually enchanting figure in his mind
Grass, buddy can't stand it, let's vent the fire with you two little sluts first!
With a bang, the Ferrari fired an arrow into the road ahead
Of course, Min Rou didn't know that she was innocent of being YY by someone else, otherwise, I am afraid that she would immediately die of disgust. But she didn't do anything else at this time, but she happened to be in YY Others, but she YY was a sweetheart who had a skin-to-skin relationship with her, and she had been slandering in her stomach since she left Chen Yang's office, what a bad guy, no conscience, stinky man, big pervert, etc., all the way, in short, none of them were good.
It's just that she didn't know that just when she was lowering her head and slandering someone all the way, someone was standing in the high office, using her fingers to open a slit in the curtain, and watching her back fade away with a smile on her face, until it disappeared (to be continued......
