Chapter 84: Goodbye Xia Jingru
Borderless Investment Bank
At the same time that Li Wei went offline, Guan Peng ushered in an unexpected guest.
"Director Xia, you are a rare guest, if Xiao Ai hadn't informed me in advance, I would never have thought that you would come to me."
As soon as Xia Jingru entered the office, Guan Peng greeted him warmly.
After a while, the secretary Qin Bing also knocked on the door and came in, a basket of washed cherries and a plate of cut black-skinned watermelons; She still remembers that the female prosecutor who came back to find the boss ended up being the boss's wife.
Guan Peng didn't know Qin Bing's mental journey, but the picture in front of him did have a sense of familiarity.
"Xia Bureau, you eat fruit."
"Mr. Guan, I have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, and I am looking for you this time, I really want to ask you for help."
Xia Jingru didn't eat fruit and got straight to the point.
"What do you say, please, it is the duty of every citizen to cooperate with the work of government departments; If there is something in the summer bureau, I will do my best. ”
If it was really a business, he wouldn't have said hello to Zhong Xiaoai, Guan Peng deliberately blocked her with words.
"Mr. Guan, you misunderstood, I came to you this time for personal matters."
Sure enough, as soon as she heard Guan Peng say this, Xia Jingru immediately opened her mouth to explain.
"A private matter? What private matters can Xia Ju ask me for? ”
didn't say anything to death, Guan Peng actually didn't want to care about Xia Jingru's private affairs, but Zhong Xiaoai opened his mouth, and it was definitely inappropriate to refuse directly.
"It's Jin Lei's business."
"Jin Lei? That younger brother of yours, you may have misunderstood the Xia Bureau, since you asked Xiao Ai to bring me a message last time, I haven't seen Jin Lei again, and we are not in a circle at all. ”
Guan Peng began to play stupid again, and last week's Jin Mingshan's ultimate leap became a joke, which was reported on the Yenching Times.
"Mr. Guan, I'll admit my mistake to you first, for some reason, I've always been prejudiced against you, so I asked Xiao Ai to talk to you last time."
Knowing that courtesy is subordinate to others, there must be something to ask for; But Xia Jingru stood up and bowed again, which made Guan Peng have a lot of changes in her opinion.
"Xia Ju is serious, there is nothing wrong with what you have done, I, Guan Peng, am not a decent gentleman, although there are no major problems, but there are a lot of small problems, those good children who have just entered the society really shouldn't deal with me."
Guan Peng revealed that his shortcomings were not to flatter Xia Jingru, mainly in that sentence of good boy, is Jin Lei a good child?
Xia Jingru is just principled, and she is not stupid, of course she understands what Guan Peng means, and she also realizes that the man in front of her is not so easy to speak.
"Mr. Guan"
Jingle bells
Xia Jingru was about to continue to explain, when the phone on Guan Peng's desk rang.
"Excuse me, I'll answer the phone."
Without giving Xia Jingru a chance to speak, Guan Peng walked directly towards the desk.
"Hey, oh, I'm sorry, I just have something on my side, you can wait for me for another ten minutes."
Guan Peng was talking to himself, and the person on the other end of the phone was a little confused; Mr. Guan, didn't you notify you in advance and ask me to call you now?
"I'm sorry, it's a bit much, what did you just say in the summer bureau?"
"Me"
Jingle bells... Jingle bells
Before Xia Jingru could speak, the phone rang again.
"Didn't I tell you to wait for me for ten minutes? Secretary Zhang, I'm sorry, I made a mistake; What, Mayor Xu is going to inspect the high-tech industrial park in the afternoon, okay, then I know, let people arrange a reception immediately. ”
After Guan Peng hung up the phone, he contacted the person in charge of the industrial park, calling one after another, and it took almost an hour to finish.
"Oops, sorry, slacking."
Guan Peng said apologetically.
"It's okay, it's okay, I know that Guan is always a busy person, so I took a whole day off today, just to match your time."
"I came prepared."
Guan Peng sighed inwardly.
Knock knock
"Mr. Guan, should I let them bring lunch over, or should you go out to eat by yourself."
Before the conversation between the two began, Qin Bing knocked on the door and came in.
"Oh, it's almost twelve o'clock, I'm really a little busy and dizzy, let's go eat outside in the summer bureau, and talk while eating."
Guan Peng looked at his watch and proposed.
"Okay, the guest is as he pleases, and I will listen to Mr. Guan's arrangement today."
As soon as he heard this, Guan Peng could see that Xia Jingru was relying on herself.

The Legend of the West Chamber - a Sichuan restaurant on the first floor of the investment bank
Guan Peng liked their sour soup fish and secret barbecue very much, so he found the original owner to take down the shop.
"It's always good to close"
"It's always good to close"
From a regular customer to a boss, everyone in this store knows Guan Peng.
"I'll just do the same thing, take a look at the summer situation, what to eat?"
Very accustomed to walking into his exclusive private room, Guan Peng greeted the waiter and handed the menu to Xia Jingru.
"The old four? What did you order? ”
"Mr. Guan ordered secret barbecue, fish in sour soup, glutinous rice pork ribs and cabbage in a dry pot."
Guan Peng didn't say anything, and the waiter explained on the side.
"It's already four dishes, so I won't order it."
Xia Jingru handed the menu to the waiter.
"Mr. Guan, what do you drink?"
Knowing who is the main one, the waiter then asked.
"My words, give me a plate of wine saved last time, do you drink red wine in the summer bureau?"
"I can do it all."
So easy to talk to; Guan Peng couldn't grasp Xia Jingru's attitude, he wanted to ask me for help.
Own restaurant, entertain your own boss, the food is really fast, and the dishes are served in less than five minutes.
"This is a wine made by my own winery, I don't know if it suits the appetite of the summer situation."
"Produced by Mr. Guan, it must be a high-quality product; When I was still working in Yanjing before, Xiao Aike didn't share the things you bought for her; But time flies so fast, and in a blink of an eye, she has become the mother of the child. ”
Even if she went to Yanzhou, Xia Jingru's contact with Zhong Xiaoai was not broken, and she didn't hear her complain about how much Guan Peng spent; Today's posture, I don't want to hit the old lady's idea.
"Yes, it's only a blink of an eye; By the way, what are you looking for me for today? ”
It's purely that Xia Jingru thinks too much, Guan Peng can't get used to her unkind style of doing things at most, and he really doesn't have any ideas at the moment.
"You should have heard about my Uncle Jin, right?"
"I heard Xiao Ai say that the dragon slayer eventually turned into an evil dragon, it's a pity."
It can be seen from the word "Uncle Jin" that even now, Jin Mingshan still has a place in Xia Jingru's heart, and Guan Peng did not comment too much.
"Yes, now everyone regards him as a typical example of corruption, but who knows that the first money he embezzled was to treat the widow of his comrade-in-arms."
Looking at Xia Jingru's expression, Guan Peng knew that this widow should be her mother.
"Speaking of which, I also want to thank Xiao Ai, if she hadn't kept reminding me to avoid suspicion, I wouldn't know how to face them now."
butterfly effect
Guan Peng influenced Zhong Xiaoai, Zhong Xiaoai influenced Xia Jingru, this time at the beginning of the investigation, Xia Jingru chose to avoid suspicion.
Although the result is still that Jin Mingshan was caught and jumped off the building, many changes have taken place in the middle, one of which is that Jin Lei fled Hong Kong.
