Chapter 602: Changing Face
"Auntie, sit down, I'll introduce myself. The man respectfully let Cheng's mother to the seat, and then said to Lu Fei: "Hello, your name is Lu Fei, I heard my aunt mention you, my name is Deng Shuang, and I work in the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Office! You are younger than me, I will call you Xiao Lu!"
Feeling the arrogance that came out of Deng Shuang's bones, Lu Fei said in his heart, this thing is really changing...... One second he was still respectful to Cheng's mother, and the next second he was arrogant to me.
Before Lu Fei could speak, Deng Shuang smiled at Cheng Yiqiu again and said: "Yiqiu, it's good to see you, since I saw you last time, I have never forgotten it, today I specially brought you a small gift, I hope you can appreciate it and smile." ”
As he spoke, he took out a delicate little box from his handbag, and when he opened it, it revealed a white pearl bracelet, these pearls were all high-grade saltwater pearls at a glance, crystal clear and almost without a single blemish, each one was extremely round, and what was more precious was that all the beads were the same size. Such a small bracelet, put on the market, the price can almost reach six figures.
Cheng Yiqiu was very disgusted with all the men who pursued her, especially those who used her confused parents to achieve their goals, she lowered her head and did not speak, expressing her dissatisfaction with silence.
"Xiao Deng, why do you take things again?" Cheng Mu said with a smile.
"For Yiqiu, she must be beautiful with her, and for you. Deng Shuang said as he took out an identical box and stuffed the two boxes into Cheng's mother's hands.
Cheng Yiqiu opened her mouth to stop her mother from accepting the gift, but she didn't want to face her mother's snobbish face, so she could only sigh dejectedly, and in a depressed mood, she felt that her ankle hurt again, and frowned in pain.
Lu Fei gently squeezed her little hand and said in a low voice, "Leave it to me here." ”
Lu Fei cleared his throat, touched his pocket, and took out a box of exquisite business cards from it, which was specially prepared for him by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs when Lu Fei made a cameo appearance as a simultaneous translator. The name printed on the business card is very scary, what linguist, visiting professor and so on have a large list of identities, the most valuable is that the business card is printed with the special logo of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Lu Fei took out one from it, handed it to Deng Shuang, and said, "Since they are all people in the system, I'm welcome, this is my business card, you can find me if you need it in the future." After all, the work of attracting investment is also inseparable from the support of our Ministry of Foreign Affairs. ”
Grandma's, isn't it just an official? Zhang Buao said that the name above can be worthy of a department-level cadre, and it should be two levels higher than the department-level level.
As for Lu Fei's high-sounding words, he learned them all in the news broadcast.
Deng Shuang was stunned for a moment, didn't you hear Cheng's mother say it? He suppressed the doubts in his heart, pretended to be calm and took Lu Fei's business card, and recognized the logo of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs at a glance.
What a ...... from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Although he is not a formal administrative official, he enjoys department-level treatment, what is the origin of this Lu Fei? Is it really like Cheng's mother said, just a rich second generation of local tycoons who do import and export trade?
Accepting Lu Fei's business card, Deng Shuang also handed his business card to Lu Fei, the arrogance in his eyes has been restrained a lot, although Lu Fei, the name of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, will not have any real power, but who can guarantee that he does not know the person who holds the real power? There are many guys in this department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Lu Fei looked at Deng Shuang's business card, smiled slightly, and asked, "Director Deng, I don't know what the salary of a department-level cadre is every month, and what is the price of the bracelet?"
Deng Shuang's face froze, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he was very dissatisfied in his heart, you are also a person in the system, and you are not from the Commission for Discipline Inspection, how can you talk like this? Do you really think that you, a department-level cadre with no rights, can suppress me? What a joke!
"This is all sent by a friend, of course my salary can't afford it, Director Lu shouldn't be too sensitive, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is not a Commission for Discipline Inspection." Deng Shuang said in a weird manner.
The conversation between the two was like thunder in the ears of Cheng Yiqiu's parents. Cheng's mother looked at Lu Fei in surprise, and said in her heart, is Xiao Lu the director of the department, or the Ministry of Foreign Affairs? The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is a central organ! This official is much better than Deng Shuang...... Moreover, Xiao Lu is younger than Deng Shuang, and the future officials will definitely be promoted even more.
Thinking of this, Cheng's mother looked at Lu Fei's gaze much softer, and she whispered to Cheng's father: "I didn't expect Xiao Lu to be the director of the hall, two levels higher than the director." ”
Father Cheng nodded and said, "Yes, I haven't heard him mention it before, it seems that Xiao Lu is a low-key person and very calm." ”
Speaking of this, Cheng's mother frowned and said, "No, old man, isn't it that officials are not allowed to do business?
Father Cheng thought for a while and said: "There are always more ways than difficulties, those of them who are officials have flexible brains, maybe there are some policy loopholes." ”
Cheng Mu's eyes rolled, and she nodded slowly: "Maybe it's ......"
The two of them spoke in a low voice, but they couldn't escape Lu Fei's ears, and while he was talking nonsense with Deng Shuang, he secretly wondered in his heart, could Yiqiu's parents have mental problems...... I remember when we first met, although they were snobbish, they were not so neurotic...... It seems that they should be told to see a psychiatrist.
Suddenly, I don't know what Cheng's mother thought of again, she picked up two boxes of pearls, walked up to Deng Shuang, and said with a smile: "Xiao Deng, since this thing was given to you by your friend, then Auntie is embarrassed to accept it, you better take it back." ”
Deng Shuang's face immediately became very exciting, he looked at Cheng's mother in surprise, and said in his heart, which one are you singing? Didn't you say that you wanted Lu Fei to leave Yiqiu? Why did you start slapping me in the face?
"Auntie, you're laughing, this is my intention, you better accept it. Deng Shuang pushed the gift back.
"Xiao Deng, that's the case, Yiqiu and Xiao Lu have known each other for so long after all, and Xiao Lu is also a good child, and he became the director of the hall at a young age, so the matter between you and Yiqiu, I and the old man of my family, we have to discuss more. Cheng's mother said bluntly.
I grass!
Deng Shuang's heart seemed to be 10,000 grass and mud horses galloping by, he looked at Cheng's mother incredibly, his face was red and white for a while, and he wanted to slap this second-class fat aunt out of the door. I've seen snobbery, but I've never seen such a snobbish! As soon as I heard that other people's officials were bigger than me, I immediately turned my face, what were these two people thinking in their heads? Don't you know that Lu Fei, the bullshit director, is actually worthless?
Deng Shuang held back his anger and said in a deep voice: "Auntie, Director Lu is young and promising, and his title in the academic department is very high, not as hard as in a real power department like us, I'll talk to Director Lu first, and I'll talk about the gift later." ”
Damn it...... Deng Shuang blushed at what he had just said, how could he say such a thing in officialdom? Isn't this a slap in the face of Lu Fei? This is a big taboo in officialdom, and Lu Fei will definitely despise himself.
The actions of her parents were all seen in Cheng Yiqiu's eyes, and a deep sadness surged in her heart. She never imagined that her parents would be so snobbish and so obsessed with power, what should she do in the future......
Over there, Deng Shuang temporarily appeased Cheng's mother, looked at Lu Fei, and sneered: "Director Lu, I'm really sorry, I hope you don't misunderstand." ”
Lu Fei shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "There's nothing to misunderstand, on the surface, I am bigger than you, but in fact, you have more power than me, right?"
"You're laughing. Deng Shuang snorted, he coughed lightly twice, to hide his embarrassment, and was just about to speak, when suddenly his eyes rolled and he said: "Since Director Lu is in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, he must know a lot of people in Yanjing." I'm related to Director Yang of Yanjing, I have to call him cousin, I wonder if Director Lu knows Director Yang Qi?"
Of course I do, he's still my rival......
Lu Fei was silent on the surface, but he was slightly surprised in his heart, this is really not a rivalry...... From Xiaoyou to Yiqiu, I really have a relationship with the Yang family......
"Director Deng, I don't know many people in Yanjing, and I don't know Yang Qi very well, so I've disappointed you. When Lu Fei said this, he took out a cigarette roll, handed one to Deng Shuang casually, lit it himself, and sent the lighter over.
"Oh...... Maybe you academics like to be quiet. Deng Shuang took the cigarette, did not doubt it, lit it and took a puff......
"Ahem......" The cigarette choked Deng Shuang enough, he coughed violently, his face was red, and tears and snot all flowed down. He had never smoked a cigarette with such a strong smell in his life, and he felt that the nicotine content in it could poison an elephant.
"Director Deng!" The man outside saw that Deng Shuang was different, and jumped in as soon as he jumped in, he stared at Lu Fei with fierce eyes, and asked, "What did you smoke for Director Deng?"
Lu Fei spit out a smoke ring and said with a smile: "Smoke, don't you see it? Are you ...... People from the Liu family?"
For this man who was like a bodyguard, Lu Fei had already noticed it. Judging from his temperament, he is not a soldier, let alone an ordinary bodyguard, but seems to be a master from a hermit family. His body shape and movements are very similar to the Liu family who competed with Zhang Buao.
In fact, Lu Fei's judgment was very accurate, and a trace of surprise flashed in the man's eyes, but Deng Shuang's violent cough reminded him that now was not the time to get to the bottom of it. He carefully patted Deng Shuang's back and slowly crossed a little internal force, so as to help Deng Shuang get out of the violent cough as soon as possible.
Deng Shuang finally finished coughing, got up and looked at Lu Fei's gaze with a hint of resentment, this is a tease that does not give face at all! Even with it, Deng Shuang also hated Cheng Yiqiu's family. He felt that his throat was hot and very uncomfortable, and he didn't bother to speak more, so he said "goodbye" hoarsely, and left the box with the man of the Liu family.
went downstairs, Deng Shuang immediately said to the man: "Liu Liqun, teach me a lesson about that Lu Fei, and warn the two old fools of the Cheng family!"
