Chapter 23: Be Who You Want to Be
Zhao Lidong looked at the report on the watchtower scene in the clubhouse and breathed a long sigh of relief. "I didn't expect him to get things done in front of the public, and he also cleared his suspicions."
Secretary Wang said: "In front of everyone in Jinghai, he played a righteous killing of relatives, and now the people who want to rectify him can't trouble him anymore." ”
"Gao Qiqiang is a character."
Zhao Lidong touched the brand-new Patek Philippe on his wrist and smiled.
In the small hall, a black-and-white photo of Li Xiang hangs, filled with wreaths and couplets.
Guo Wenjie led the team, everyone dressed neatly and saluted Li Xiang's posthumous photo.
An Xin came to the train station, holding the key in the envelope.
An Xin opened locker No. 304 and took out the notebook. He looked at it, and the more he looked at it, the more determined the gaze in his eyes became.
Gao Qiqiang took Tang Xiaohu and a group of brothers to get out of the car, just after attending the memorial service, everyone was wearing black hoops.
Tang Xiaohu looked at Gao Qiqiang and said, "Brother Qiang, you want to mourn ......"
"Have Tan Siyan and Li Shan dealt with it cleanly?"
"Don't worry, it's sparsely handled."
In the construction section of Qinghua Expressway, the on-site mixer rotated and poured out a stream of cement.
One finger floats on the concrete surface.
Workers raise shovels and shovel a shovel of cement.
Fingers were instantly submerged.
At dusk, a Bentley is quietly parked on the seawall.
Gao Qiqiang, who was in a suit and leather shoes, sat in the car with a complicated expression.
Not far away, an Audi A6 with a half-new government license plate slowly drove up.
The Audi stopped, head to head with the Bentley, as if in a confrontation.
Gao Qiqiang sat in the car and looked at the Audi opposite.
Zhao Lidong, who was in the back seat of the Audi, observed the Bentley in front of him.
The Bentley's doors opened first.
Gao Qiqiang walked to the Audi step by step and stood in front of the door.
Zhao Lidong looked at Gao Qiqiang outside the car window and did not move.
Gao Qiqiang waited for a long time, and when he saw that the car window was not rolled down, his face twitched, and he ripped off the tie around his neck.
He slowly wrapped his tie around his hand.
Zhao Lidong in the car became nervous, afraid that Gao Qiqiang would suddenly make a move.
Gao Qiqiang bent down, suddenly opened his mouth, sighed at Zhao Lidong's car window, and then carefully wiped a stain on the car window with the tie on his hand.
Zhao Lidong smiled and smiled comfortably.
In the office of the director of the municipal bureau, An Xin put the documents on the table.
Guo Wenjie said: "What for? The forensic evaluation of the injuries has come out, your bullet passed through Gao Qisheng's left rib, causing only abrasions to Li Xiang, and the cause of his death was the rupture of internal organs, which has nothing to do with you. In that kind of emergency at that time, there was no problem with the way you handled it, and you didn't blame yourself. ”
"It's official, and I can't get past this in my heart."
"I discussed with several bureau leaders, and I will temporarily change your position, and you will be treated as a cooling-off period."
"Obey the arrangement."
An Xin silently packed up his things, and everyone gathered around and looked at him.
"It's just a change of position, and it's not that you can't see each other."
Jiang Chao said: "Brother An, you will always be a member of our detachment!" ”
Zhang Biao said: "An Xin, I've been messing with you for so many years, it's me who is careful. ”
An Xin said: "It is also good to be careful, at least not in front of you and behind your back." ”
Everyone straightened up and saluted An Xin.
In the office of the chairman of Jinghai Construction Engineering Group, Uncle Tai was sitting in his place, and a lawyer was reading documents to him.
On the 3rd of this month, Mr. Wu Qi officially transferred 8% of the equity in his name to Mr. Gao Qiqiang. On the 6th of this month, Mr. Jin Zhiyong transferred 16% of his equity in the Construction Engineering Group. As of this morning, Mr. Gao Qiqiang holds a total of 49.7% of the shares, and is currently the largest shareholder of the Construction Engineering Group. ”
"Dad, do you want to take medicine?"
Uncle Tai asked, "Are you too anxious?" ”
"I promise that I will never take back your shares, and I will not lose a penny in dividends every year!"
"The wind and waves in Jinghai are big, and you can't calm them down."
"The wind and waves are strong, and the fish caught are big, and at the end of the year, you can add a 'surplus every year' to your table, and you are also raising children to prevent old age."
After a moment, Uncle Tai stood up gloomily.
In a hotel in Hong Kong, Chen Shuting led Gao Xiaochen and Huang Yao into the hotel lobby, and Tang Xiaolong followed behind, carrying newly bought toys and clothes in his hands.
Gao Xiaochen said, "Mom, I'm hungry. ”
Chen Shuting said: "Okay, let's go to dinner first." Xiaolong, you send the things up first, and then come to the cafeteria to find us. ”
Tang Xiaolong nodded: "Okay, sister-in-law." ”
Tang Xiaolong walked into the cafeteria empty-handed, looked around the restaurant, and did not see Chen Shuting and the two children.
Tang Xiaolong grabbed the waiter and asked, "Did you see a woman with two children?" ”
The waiter shook his head: "I'm sorry sir, there are too many children here, we don't know which ones you are talking about." ”
Tang Xiaolong picked up his mobile phone and made a call, and the voice of "The user you dialed has been turned off" came from the phone.
Tang Xiaolong hurriedly ran towards the lobby.
When he arrived at the lobby, Tang Xiaolong grabbed the foreign doorman who was seeing off the guests and asked, "Did you see the woman who came back with me?" ”
The doorman nodded: "She got into a taxi with the child and has already left." ”
"Gone?"
In the office of the chairman of Jinghai Construction Engineering Group, Gao Qiqiang listened to the phone with an expressionless face. "Got it, it's not your fault."
Tang Xiaolong on the phone said: "I searched everywhere, but I couldn't find it anywhere, Brother Qiang, I'm sorry!" ”
Gao Qiqiang said: "You stay in the hotel and wait for them, Shuting is just playing with her temper, and when she figures it out, she will come back." ”
At night, Gao Qiqiang was sitting in the living room when the phone rang. Gao Qiqiang glanced at it, picked it up with a smile, and said, "Shuting, I'm sorry, I've been too busy for a while." ”
Chen Shuting said: "Qiqiang, I decided to stay here with my two children and will not go back." ”
"Don't make trouble, your home is in Jinghai."
"Qiqiang, you make me afraid, a place that makes people scared, not home."
"I'll just treat you as a trick, and come back when you've had enough, this is your home."
"Qiqiang, is everything you do really for this family? Goodbye, don't look for us. ”
Gao Qiqiang curled up on the sofa and flipped through a photo album.
The album has a photo of him with his younger brother and sister on Jiuchang Street, as well as warm memories of him and Chen Shuting and Gao Xiaochen after marrying his wife......
Open-air food stalls are still thriving, with stall owners soliciting customers and young diners swiping beers and shaking their sieves.
An Xin and Meng Yu sat quietly opposite each other, a little out of place with the hustle and bustle around them.
Meng Yu carefully placed the skewers on An Xin's plate. "The job of my publishing house has been decided, and I will join the company next month."
"Hmm."
Meng Yu looked at An Xin and knew that he was still immersed in Li Xiang's affairs.
She put her hand on An Xin's hand. "I won't be so busy as a traffic policeman, and we can go to ...... on weekends in the future."
An Xin gently took Meng Yu's hand away from her own. "Meng Yu, there are too many people who have left without explanation, and there are too many things that have been suppressed without explanation. They are not reconciled, and I am not reconciled, I dare not let go! If I let it go, they'll really be gone! If I don't give them an explanation, I can't hold anything else in my heart. ”
"I know. An Xin, I like you, but also because of your purity! ”
"I'm sorry ......"
Meng Yu smiled: "I understand you, appreciate you, and even worship you!" But living with you, it's tiring. ”
"It's that I'm not worthy of you."
Meng Yu raised the wine glass in front of An Xin: "Never change!" Be who you want to be! In the future, we will be all right, and no one owes anyone. ”
An Xin looked at Meng Yu, her eyes were illuminated by the lights.
The two clinked glasses and drank them all.
Meng Yu picked up the bag and turned to leave.
An Xin silently watched Meng Yu's back gradually disappear into the lights.
In the government conference hall, Zhao Lidong spoke on the stage: "Enterprises are the foundation of the economic development of the country. Government departments need to help excellent enterprises and make them feel warm services. ”
Gao Qiqiang spoke as a representative of the CPPCC members: "As businessmen, everything we have comes from the society, so when there is an opportunity to give back to the society, we must go all out and have an unshirkable responsibility!" ”
Meng Dehai said: "I announce that the Fourth Session of the 12th CPPCC of Qinghua District has been successfully concluded! ”
The audience applauded.
Gao Qiqiang sat in the center of the first row.
In the city hall, the audience was a black uniformed policeman.
On the stage, Gao Qiqiang was speaking: "In Jinghai, the people can live a down-to-earth life, and we businessmen can operate with peace of mind, all of which are inseparable from the front-line public security officers, who have built a happy life for us with their lives!" Therefore, on behalf of the Jinghai Chamber of Commerce, I announce the establishment of the Jinghai Public Security Family Foundation. Assist the relevant administrative departments to improve the risk protection mechanism of the Jinghai City Public Security People's Police, relieve the worries of the public security people's police, and take care of the families of those heroes who have sacrificed. ”
Guo Wenjie came to power, and Gao Qiqiang held Guo Wenjie's hand tightly like an old friend reunited.
The flash lights kept on to record the scene.
At the intersection, An Xin changed into a traffic police uniform and stood on the command platform to direct traffic.
The green light turned on, and Gao Qiqiang's Bentley staggered past him.
Gao Qiqiang looked at An Xin outside the car window and slowly closed the window.
An Xin looked at Bentley's license plate, his eyes did not linger too much, he was performing the duties of a traffic policeman.
At the next crossroads of fate, they will meet again.
