Chapter 8 chapter eight

When he was about to get off work, Lu Husheng called on his mobile phone to tell Cheng Yiyi that Wu Lanlan had arrived in Nanzhou. Cheng Yiyi said, "I see." He put down his phone, closed the door, and sat alone.The shadows of camphor are densely cast on the window, which is a bit quiet. It's been ten years. The time of ten years is fast and fast, as if in an instant.Wu Lanlan had long been a part of his heart, and usually he wouldn't flip it.But now, the softest part of my heart has come to Nanzhou, the city where I live and work.Although in a society with highly developed transportation and frequent personnel exchanges, coming to Nanzhou is easy.But Cheng Yiyi never thought that Wu Lanlan would come one day.He is a person who is stubborn about the past, he doesn't want to go back, he would rather never see him again.Moreover, over the years, Zhang Xiaoyu's virtuousness has pressed Wu Lanlan's position in Cheng Yiyi's heart again and again.

Lu Husheng said that Wu Lanlan got off the plane at seven o'clock in the evening, and then Nanri Group would host a banquet for her.Except for Jiang Hechuan, the main accompanying personnel are all comrades-in-arms.Lu Husheng emphasized that this is also what Wu Lanlan meant, and that comradeship is more important than anything else. In the evening, Cheng Yiyi had already arranged another stall, but now he had to push it away.Fortunately, it is not too difficult for the leader to push.Just one phone call away.People can't say it even if they have ideas. The leader is busy, who doesn't know?The leader's schedule may change at any time, how can he not know?Cheng Yiyi asked Chen Yang to tell Director Wang of the Education Bureau that he would not be able to go at night because he had something to do, and told them not to wait.Without asking, Chen Yang called Director Wang.Although Director Wang hesitated a little, he didn't say anything.

Cheng Yiyi said to Chen Yang: "You should go back early, and let Ye Kai go back too. I will let them pick me up later." Chen Yang said: "Wait a little longer. Anyway, I'm fine when I go home. Secretary-General..." Cheng Yiyi saw that Chen Yang seemed to be about to say something, so he asked, "What's the matter?" "Yes, but I can't tell."Chen Yang blushed.Although this young man is young, he still does things in an orderly manner. Cheng Yiyi likes it very much. Soon after he became the secretary general, he made him his secretary. Cheng Yiyi smiled and said, "What is there to say? It's like a big girl. It's not like this usually. Tell me!"

"I heard that the secretary-general is going to the government." Chen Yang glanced at Cheng Yiyi while speaking, and seeing that he hadn't moved, he said, "I've been with the secretary-general for more than a year, and I'll follow you Have fun. You see, I want to go with you to the government. I don't know..." "Ah ho, that's it? Don't listen to the wind and rain, I don't know. You are by my side, let alone talk nonsense. As for the future, I will think about it. Okay!" Naturally, Chen Yang could hear the words, and Chen Yang said: "Then I will thank the Secretary-General first. I will not talk nonsense, this is the first time I have said it."

At 7:10, Lu Husheng got a call and said that he had received it and went directly to Huhai Villa. Cheng Yiyi said, "Come another car, I'm at the municipal party committee." Lu Husheng said, "Then just wait, and the car will arrive." On the way, Zhang Xiaoyu called and said that he was leaving tomorrow, and asked him to go back early at night, and he had to pack some things.Cheng put away the line all the way, and smiled casually, everyone knew about the affairs between husband and wife.Zhang Xiaoyu's procedures for going abroad were processed very quickly. Cheng Yiyi thought it would take March and April, but now it's only mid-February, and the procedures are all completed.After completing the procedures, Zhang Xiaoyu was hesitant at first, but now she suddenly became anxious, wishing to leave immediately.The son was very happy when he heard that his mother was going, and urged his mother to leave early.Cheng Yiyi thought: let’s go, it’s the same one day later, so he asked Lu Husheng to buy the plane ticket.Fly from Beijing, and then directly to Sydney.

It turned out that Cheng Yiyi was going to send Zhang Xiaoyu to Beijing, but the job at hand made it difficult for him to separate himself.What's more, after arriving in Beijing, the plane only stopped for a while, and it will be transferred to the plane to Australia in two hours, so it was nothing but a meaning.Zhang Xiaoyu said not to go, so as not to run back and forth.After thinking about it all the way, Cheng agreed.However, Zhang Xiaoyu is leaving tomorrow, so she must go back early at night, and she must not drink too much, let alone get drunk. In the No. 8 small building of Huhai Villa, Guo Lei was standing by the door.Seeing Cheng Yiyi, he quickly greeted him, and Cheng Yiyi asked, "Where's Mr. Yan?"

Guo Lei replied with a smile: "She has gone to the province." Guo Lei's smile contained something, but Cheng Yiyi knew it.The purpose of Yan Lili's trip to the province is like the small villa in Huhai Mountain Villa. Although it is hidden, it is faintly visible, and people with discerning eyes can already see it.However, Cheng Yiyi is hard to say, because it involves Zhang Xiaoyu's uncle Zhang Minzhao.Others would not say that Zhang Minzhao is the governor, who can ask about the governor?After being a cadre for many years, if you can't even remember the phrase "don't ask what you shouldn't ask", then what kind of cadre should you be?It's better to go home and sell sweet potatoes.

Cheng walked in while laughing all the way, and he heard Lu Husheng's loud voice from afar, as if he was calling someone, spraying beads like he was fighting. Jiang Hechuan stood by the door.Jiang Hechuan is a very speculative person, so he must have felt that it was time for Cheng Yiyi to arrive at this moment, so he came out to continue.Seeing Cheng Yiyi, Jiang Hechuan smiled, his scalp glowing under the light, and said, "It's rare that the Secretary-General is here, and we are all waiting." Cheng Yiyi also smiled and replied, "Is everyone here?" Jiang Hechuan followed Cheng Yiyi and said, "It's probably all here. Mr. Wu has been thinking about the Secretary-General." Cheng Yiyi didn't make a sound, he knew that Jiang Hechuan was talking on the scene.It was impossible for Wu Lanlan to directly speak of Cheng Yiyi, just as Cheng Yiyi would not directly speak of Wu Lanlan.There is a hurdle in my heart, and it is not always so easy to pass.

Jiang Hechuan yelled: "The secretary-general has arrived." Lu Husheng's voice lit up immediately, and he shouted: "Okay, the chief is here, stand at attention, take a break!" There was no sound in the box, and Cheng quickly looked around all the way, but he didn't see Wu Lanlan, which was a more appropriate way.He knew that Wu Lanlan had avoided it consciously.He asked loudly: "Where is Mr. Wu? Old Lu, why did you lose the guest of honor?" Lu Husheng laughed loudly and said, "Are you afraid of seeing the chief? Lan Lan, you've come all the way."

"Ah!" There was a response from the small suite inside, it was the same voice as before, but it sounded a little strange and old.No wonder, they are all in their forties, who can change? The box was even quieter, and everyone seemed to be holding their breath.Cheng stood all the way, trying to be as natural as possible.At this time, Wu Lanlan came out from the door of the suite.She obviously just went inside to touch up her makeup, and there was a slight blush on her face.She stopped by the door, and Cheng Yiyi hurried up, stretched out his hand, and said, "Welcome, welcome, Mr. Wu came to Nanzhou, which is really unexpected. Welcome!"

Wu Lanlan hesitated for a moment, then stretched out her hand, tapped lightly on the palm of Chao Chengyi, and then retracted immediately.It was just this light touch that made Cheng Yiyi feel Wu Lanlan's hands shaking. Although it was slight, it still made Cheng Yiyi's heart, which was pretending to be calm, fluctuated a little.He immediately covered it up and said, "Mr. Wu, please take a seat." Wu Lanlan also followed Lu Husheng's guidance and sat in the position of the guest of honor.Cheng Yiyi originally wanted to sit in the chairman's seat, but Jiang Hechuan refused to let him, saying: "Today, the secretary-general is the master. The comrades-in-arms are here, and the secretary-general is the host. Of course, he should sit in the host's seat." Cheng Yiyi didn't refuse, and next to Wu Lanlan sit down. After the wine was full, Cheng Yiyi stood up first and said, "On behalf of the comrades in Nanzhou, I would like to toast Mr. Wu." Wu Lanlan looked into Cheng Yiyi's eyes, but Cheng Yiyi turned his head slightly.Wu Lanlan raised her glass, said to drink, and poured the wine down.Lu Husheng yelled: "Good drinker, cool!" Cheng Yiyi also drank the wine, filled it up and said, "I'm here to respect Mr. Wu, it's rare to come to Nanzhou." Wu Lanlan looked at Cheng Yiyi, and Jiang Hechuan interjected: "From now on, Mr. Wu will come here often. Not only there are project cooperation, but also so many comrades-in-arms. For comrades-in-arms, we must also come often. I also follow the Secretary-General to respect Wu total." Wu Lanlan picked up the cup, and slowly said, "Nanzhou is a place I've longed for, and I've wanted to come here for a long time. However, my comrades-in-arms don't welcome me. I'm really happy to come back. How about this, I propose Let's have a drink together." Lu Husheng said: "That can't be done. This is to respect you all the way. Let's drink it later." Wu Lanlan turned her head to look at Cheng Yiyi, and Cheng Yiyi was also looking at her. Their eyes met and then quickly separated. Cheng Yiyi said: "Just listen to the monk, let's drink!" He drank the wine while talking.Wu Lanlan didn't say anything more, and drank too. After sitting down, Cheng Yiyi asked Wu Lanlan: "Is the old chief still in good health?" The blush on Wu Lanlan's face was stronger than before, and she said while picking up vegetables, "Fortunately, I just can't sit still, and I can't get used to many things now. When you get old, your heart gets old." Cheng Yiyi said with a smile: "The old chief is upright and principled, and he came from the war years. It is normal to have some thoughts sometimes. As long as it doesn't hurt your body, think about it. It's better than not thinking about it." Wu Lanlan also laughed, and said: "He loves to hear this saying that people live to be old, and when they think about being old, they are dead if they don't think about it." Cheng Yiyi laughed haha ​​for a while, Lu Husheng started to toast and said, "You can't just talk to Yiyi and forget us all. I disagree. I'll toast Miss Wu!" Wu Lanlan said: "I'm not a young lady anymore, I'm an old lady." As she said that, she glanced sideways at Cheng Yiyi.Cheng lowered his head all the way, talking to Jiang Hechuan who was sitting beside him. Slowly, the atmosphere of wine came out.There are ten people at this table, nine of them are comrades-in-arms, only Jiang Hechuan is not.Jiang Hechuan was a sensible person. After sitting for a while, after drinking what he should have drunk, he asked Cheng Yiyi for leave, saying: There are other things, so I won't disturb your comrades-in-arms.Cheng Yiyi knew Jiang Hechuan's thoughts, so he agreed.Jiang Hechuan apologized to everyone and asked everyone to have a few more drinks, and then left.The atmosphere became more active.Lu Husheng's loud voice kept ringing, and everyone rushed to drink with Wu Lanlan. Wu Lanlan was obviously battle-tested. Although her face turned redder, she spoke calmly.It's just that her eyes looked at Cheng Yilu more often.Jiang Hechuan was here just now, and everyone still had some scruples. Once Jiang Hechuan left, these people who knew the bottom line were already bright inside and out, and they had alcohol to strengthen their courage, and their words became more and more casual. Wang Zhiman is now the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau. His face was flushed from drinking, and he stood up and shouted: "Please have a drink with Ms. Lan Lan, the head of the group, have a... drink, everyone is welcome!" Lu Husheng took the lead in applauding, while Cheng Yiyi just smiled. The comrades-in-arms should not be too official when they are together.Once officialdom is fake, if you don't do it well, you will make a fool of yourself.He looked at Wu Lanlan, who was looking at him eagerly.His heart couldn't help trembling, he calmed down for a while, and said: "Okay, I'll pay respect to Miss Wu Lanlan again. Since I'm here, I'll stay in Nanzhou for a few more days this time, and let the monks accompany you around. Come on , drink a little..." Wu Lanlan almost didn't refuse, so she stood up and drank the wine.Lu Husheng came over to pour the wine himself again, saying that one drink is too little, and the drinks should be in pairs, not singles, "One more!" Before Lu Hu finished speaking, Wu Lanlan had already taken a drink from the cup.Cheng Yiyi had no choice but to drink. After drinking, he said: "You all drink. I came from Beijing and the journey is tiring, so I can't drink too much. Let's drink!" Wang Zhiman murmured, "It's still the leader who loves Mr. Wu." Both Cheng Yiyi and Wu Lanlan heard this sentence, but they pretended not to hear it.Cheng Yiyi asked Wu Lanlan about her current job.Wu Lanlan said: "It's been a long time since I quit, and I'm working as a errand in an investment company. It's great to have a little control at hand, and people are at ease." Putting on a rope, running around, and getting nowhere." Wu Lanlan smiled and said, "We are different from you. You are a high-ranking cadre. In China, there is nothing better than being an official. I can't be an official, or I will. It would be great to be an official!" "Haha, southerners educate their children, saying that if you don't study hard, you will have to be an official in the future. How easy it is to be an official! Now is the era of commodity economy, and being a good official is actually an abnormal reflection. Being an official is service. , but no, look, when you come, I will serve. Who is more comfortable with you as an official at the table?" Cheng Yiyi said and laughed loudly. "Are you here to serve me?" Wu Lanlan asked suddenly. When Wu Lanlan asked, the people who were shouting just now fell silent.Cheng Yiyi didn't expect her to ask such a question, and couldn't think of an answer for a while.I had no choice but to say to Lu Husheng: "Monk, why don't you drink anymore? Come, let me offer you a toast!" Lu Husheng immediately took the cup and said, "Okay, okay, let's drink." Wu Lanlan was obviously a little drunk. Cheng Yiyi saw her cheeks were flushed and her eyes were a little dazed, so she got up and asked Lu Husheng to come out together, and told him to finish the banquet quickly.Lu Husheng breathed out his alcohol and said, "It's still early. It's still early! Tonight I'll call you Yiyi, the head of the regiment, not the secretary-general... Ah, Yiyi, let's drink. It's rare for Lan Lan to come. drink!" Cheng Yiyi pinched Lu Husheng's arm vigorously and said, "I can't drink any more. That's it!" While Lu Husheng was still muttering, Cheng Yiyi had already returned to the table, holding a glass of wine and proposing a toast for everyone.Wu Lanlan sat on a chair, squinting at Cheng Yiyi.Lu Husheng was still muttering, but when Cheng Yiyi gave him a gouged look, he fell silent and just drank his wine.Just as he was sitting down, Cheng Yilu's cell phone rang.Seeing that it was from Zhang Xiaoyu, Cheng didn't pick it up all the way. He still smiled and said to Lu Husheng: "Well, Mr. Wu is tired too. You can send Mr. Wu to rest first. I have something to do, so I'm leaving first." Wu Lanlan's eyes followed Cheng Yiyi, and Cheng Yiyi said goodbye: "Have a good rest, I will come to see you tomorrow when I am free!" "I want...I want to sing!" Wu Lanlan looked at Cheng Yiyi and said. "This... yes, yes. Monk, find a good place to sing with Mr. Wu. I can't do it anymore, my hair is dizzy." Cheng Yiyi winked at Lu Husheng as he said.Lu Husheng seemed to suddenly remember something, and said, "Ah, there is something to do along the way. Tomorrow my sister-in-law is going to Australia." Lu Husheng was obviously clever but was misunderstood by his cleverness. Cheng Yiyi didn't want to say it all the time, but he did, which made Cheng Yiyi a little embarrassed.Wu Lanlan stretched out her hand, held Cheng Yiyi's hand and said, "So... so it's like this, okay, you go back, go back!" Cheng Yiyi said: "Okay, you sing well! I'll go first." As he said, he got into the car, and the moment the car started, he saw Wu Lanlan standing, and was quickly submerged by the night of Nanzhou.
