Wang Juan stayed here all night, and then reluctantly left the next morning.

When leaving, Wang Juan looked back at the depths of the courtyard, bit her lower lip, and then got into the car.

Two days later, Wang Juan returned to Yanjing to meet Zhao Minglei and also brought Zhao Minglei a photo of the child. Seeing the photo, Zhao Minglei was full of emotion, and at the same time felt indescribable guilt for Wang Juan.

Unlike Zhang Liming, Zhao Minglei left this photo, and quietly hid it in a drawer in the office and locked it, taking it out and taking a look at it when he wanted to.

Zhao Minglei is already married, and the family can't let the family know about this child, otherwise it will have to be a big problem.

Wang Juan not only brought a photo this time, but also brought him a passbook, looking at the numbers on it, Zhao Minglei was very happy, in just over a year, following Wang Juan, Zhao Minglei made more money than he did in Dashilar before, speaking of which this business is really profitable!

With money, plus Zhao Minglei is now mixing well in the unit, because he will come to work, and there is also a family relationship, and he gets along with the leader very well, if there is no accident, his work will soon move, although the level will remain unchanged for the time being, but the position will be more important, which is a good thing for Zhao Minglei.

found an opportunity to linger with Wang Juan for a long time, but unfortunately Wang Juan did not promise him to spend the night with him. Wang Juan told him that she was not in good health because of giving birth, and the doctor asked her to pay attention to recuperation, so she couldn't ...... with Zhao Minglei, which made Zhao Minglei a little disappointed and a little guilty about Wang Juan.

Leaving the hotel, Zhao Minglei was about to go home, but just took two steps forward and saw a person.

"Little Joe!"

"Brother Minglei, why are you?" Xiao Qiao turned around when he heard the sound and saw that it was Zhao Minglei who was slightly stunned.

"Hehe, when did you come back? You kid won't tell me when he comes back? What's wrong? Now that I'm the big boss of Xiangjiang, my brother doesn't move around anymore? Zhao Minglei said half-jokingly and half-complaining.

"How is it possible, I just came back today, and I didn't even have time to return home, I was going to see you in a few days, but I didn't expect to meet here." Xiao Qiao explained with a smile, and then turned around and explained to the man who spoke just now, only to see the man say, "I understand, Mr. Qiao, I'll go first." After finishing speaking, the man nodded to Zhao Minglei and turned to leave.

"...... just now?"

"Oh, a colleague from the company." Xiao Qiao said lightly, and then asked Zhao Minglei with a smile: "Brother Minglei, why are you here today?" ”

"Happened to be passing by, what about you?"

"Oh, I didn't stay at home when I came back this time, so it's more convenient to stay in a hotel with a few colleagues." Xiao Qiao stretched out his hand and pointed towards the hotel, and then said, "Brother Minglei, are you okay?" Why don't we go in and have a cup of tea or coffee and sit for a while? ”

"Okay!" Zhao Minglei readily agreed, and then followed Xiao Qiao back to the hotel, and the two found a place to sit at the small bar on the side of the hotel lobby.

Xiao Qiao asked Zhao Minglei what he wanted to drink, and then asked for a cup of green tea and a cup of coffee.

Soon the tea and coffee came up, and Xiao Qiao took a sip of the tea in front of him.

Zhao Minglei hasn't seen Xiao Qiao for a long time, so it's been more than two years, right? Since Luo Yang ended the sale of Dashilar, it didn't take long for Xiao Qiao to go to Xiangjiang, what company he opened with Luo Yang in Xiangjiang, and Zhao Minglei is not very clear about what he does, but it is said that he seems to be doing well.

I haven't seen Xiao Qiao for so many years, and I almost didn't recognize it just now.

Xiao Qiao has changed a lot, originally in Zhao Minglei's impression, his cousin is just an ordinary person, and his personality is a little simple.

But now, dressed in a sophisticated suit, with neatly combed hair, and a gold watch on his wrist, he is slightly fatter than before, especially the temperament on his body has changed a lot from before.

In addition, in this foreign-related hotel, Xiao Qiao's current appearance is completely no different from the foreign businessmen from Xiangjiang, and if it is not for those who are familiar with him, they will not be able to distinguish it at all.

In addition, Xiao Qiao's gestures now have become different from before, he now gives people a shrewd and capable feeling, and he is no longer the simple and even a little stupid young man he was at the beginning.

"Why don't you drink coffee? I remember that everyone in Xiangjiang is used to drinking coffee, right? Zhao Minglei took a sip of coffee and asked with a smile.

"Oh, it's nothing, I'm a little unaccustomed to this stomach coffee." Xiao Qiao smiled, took out a delicate cigarette case from his pocket, opened the cigarette case, took out a cigarette and handed it to Zhao Minglei, then took one in his own mouth and lit it with a very beautiful lighter.

Watching Xiao Qiao's move, I don't know why Zhao Minglei suddenly felt a strong jealousy in his heart.

As Xiao Qiao's cousin, Zhao Minglei has been steadily pressing Xiao Qiao since he was a child, especially after he was admitted to college, he had a sense of superiority, in his eyes, his cousin has no interest, and Luo Yang is either making black market deals, or selling clothes or something, although he can make some money, but what's the use of this? has no social status, after all, he is just a low-level person.

But I haven't seen it for more than two years, Xiao Qiao's current changes are beyond Zhao Minglei's surprise, whether it is his temperament or style, he is a successful businessman, and now Xiao Qiao is no longer sneaking around in the black market on the streets of Yanjing, nor is he the little brother who follows Luo Yang to practice stalls in Dashilar, such a gap makes Zhao Minglei very unhappy.

Xiao Qiao has actually developed local living habits in Xiangjiang over the years, and it is far more convenient to drink coffee than tea. Because of the conditions, whether it is at work or at home, the coffee that Xiao Qiao drinks is ground good coffee, and now in the mainland, even if the coffee provided by foreign-related hotels is only instant coffee like Nestle, Xiao Qiao, who is used to drinking good coffee, naturally looks down on instant coffee.

So when he called for a drink just now, Xiao Qiao deliberately didn't ask for coffee, but just asked for a cup of tea. On the contrary, seeing Zhao Minglei drinking instant coffee with relish, he felt funny in his heart.

Xiao Qiao asked Zhao Minglei how he is now? I heard that he now works in the Bureau of Commerce? And became a section chief? Already a leader?

Zhao Minglei smiled and said modestly that whatever leaders do not lead, they are all serving the masses and are not worth mentioning. Besides, he is a small section chief, what is he doing in Yanjing? There are not many others in Yanjing, that is, there are many officials, and the department and bureau level can barely be regarded as leaders, and there are so many at the department level that they are not conspicuous at all. However, what he did in the Commercial Bureau was so-so, the leaders of the bureau still valued him very much, and talked to him some time ago, and then his position will move again, and he will work in more important positions or something.

In Zhao Minglei's view, even if Xiao Qiao becomes the boss of Xiangjiang, it is nothing more than that, he can't compare with himself at all, he is a leading cadre, and the future is unlimited, and if you really want to talk about money, you have a lot of money, and the business they cooperate with can bring him a lot of income every month, what kind of cow are you? After going out for a few years, you really became a Xiangjiang person? Still pretending to be in front of me? Don't you stick green onions in your pig's nose?

The two sat and chatted for a while, and what they said was nothing more than something very ordinary. Among them, Zhao Minglei also tentatively asked Xiao Qiao why he came back this time, but Xiao Qiao just said some clichés, but did not tell Zhao Minglei the real purpose of his return.

After a few temptations, I saw that Xiao Qiao didn't enter the oil and salt, and his speech was even more leaky, which was completely different from the stupid cousin in Zhao Minglei's memory, and even Zhao Minglei had to admit that Xiao Qiao was different from before, and he didn't know him a little.

More than half an hour later, Xiao Qiao found a reason to say that he still had something to do, and he would visit his home after a few days of work, Zhao Minglei smiled and agreed, and specially said that when the time comes, everyone will get together with relatives or something, it's been a long time, and relatives have to move around or something, or they will be unfamiliar.

Get up, shake hands, and say goodbye.

Xiao Qiao sent Zhao Minglei out of the hall, watching Zhao Minglei go away, his brows furrowed slightly, and then turned around and walked towards the hotel.

After a while, Xiao Qiao came to the suite where he lived, walked to the sofa and sat down after entering the door, then picked up the phone and dialed the main station to call the long distance, and then dialed the number to call.

"Brother Yang, it's me, Xiao Qiao."

"You've arrived in Yanjing?" Luo Yang's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Arrived, just stayed."

"Well, take a good rest, the meeting at the center has been arranged?"

"It's already arranged, I'll go directly to the center for an interview tomorrow morning." Little Joe replied.

Luo Yang advised: "You are interested in the center, this time it is a relationship that is not easy to get along, there are many excellent TV series produced by the center in the past two years, especially "Journey to the West" and "Dream of Red Mansions", which have just been piloted, have had excellent feedback and caused a sensation. This time, you will mainly contact each other to see if there is any possibility of cooperation in this regard, and you should also pay attention to Yanjing Film Studio, if there is a suitable project, you can also cooperate. ”

"Don't worry, I understand this." Xiao Qiao said: "I have already greeted the soldier, and he has also arranged it here, tonight we will invite the other party's leader to have a light meal, and then go over tomorrow morning to talk." ”

"Well, it's good to arrange it this way, Xiao Qiao, I'll leave this matter to you, I really can't leave here, otherwise I'll come over in person."

"Brother Yang, what you said, isn't this also our own business? By the way, are the sister-in-law and the child okay? ”

Luo Yang smiled on the phone: "Okay, the confinement will be out in a few days, and your little niece is getting more and more beautiful now, just know when you come back." By the way, Xiaoyun plans to go back to Huhai to live after the confinement, and when the time comes, you will go directly to Huhai after you finish your business, and we will meet in Huhai first. ”

"It's done!" Xiao Qiao agreed, and then hesitated and told Luo Yang about the encounter he had met Zhao Minglei earlier.

Hearing this, Luo Yang was silent on the other end of the phone for a while, and then said, "If you don't mention this kid, I almost forgot about him, what's the matter?" How's this guy messing around? ”

】

Xiao Qiao roughly talked about the meeting between him and Zhao Minglei on the phone, and then talked about Zhao Minglei's reaction and the side knock on the side of the test of his return this time, after listening to it, Luo Yang laughed on the other end of the phone, saying that your kid has also been experienced, he is finally mature, and he has done a good job, Zhao Minglei is not a good thing, the matter of Dashilar has not been settled for him back then, it is right to prevent a hand, and then he will have the opportunity to clean him up later, now the key is the matter at hand, don't be careless.
