Autumn goes and winter comes, today is Friday, the beginning of winter, according to northern customs, we need to eat dumplings today.

Qiao Liang received three calls in the afternoon, one of which was called by Li Youwei, saying that Gu Shuyun had made Qiao Liang's favorite mutton dumplings at home and asked him to come over to eat after get off work, saying that Fang Xiaoya was here too.

Although Fang Xiaoya is the chairman of Zhengtai Group, she has no father or mother. After Li Youwei arrived at Zhengtai Group, she strongly assisted Fang Xiaoya on the one hand, and on the other hand, she played the role of the big brother. Fang Xiaoya is very concerned about life and often asks her to eat at home, allowing her to feel the warmth of the family.

Fang Xiaoya was very moved by this and often expressed her gratitude to Li Youwei and his wife in front of Qiao Liang.

Qiao Liang immediately agreed to Li Youwei.

Then Zhang Mei called and said that she received a call from Ji Hong that today, the beginning of Dong, invited them to eat dumplings at home.

Qiao Liang felt that among the four people, Chu Heng, Zhang Mei and Ji Hong, he and Ji Hong were the saddest characters. They were being played together by Chu Heng and Zhang Mei. He now knew the truth, but poor Ji Hong continued to be kept in the dark.

Qiao Liang immediately refused and said that there would be an official dinner to attend tonight.

Zhang Mei hung up the phone immediately.

The third call was made by Jiang Xiuxiu, who also asked Lidong to go to her dormitory to eat dumplings.

Qiao Liang knew that eating dumplings at Jiang Xiuxiu would inevitably have to do business.

Thinking of the pain and conflicts in Jiang Xiuxiu that he had noticed recently, Qiao Liang couldn't help but feel entangled. Moreover, he had agreed to Li Youwei, so he found an excuse for the official dinner.

Jiang Xiuxiu hung up the phone in disappointment.

When get off work was about to get off work, Qiao Liang went to Ye Xinyi's office to deliver a document, and Ye Xinyi was sitting there worried.

Ning Hailong was on a business trip. Ye Xinyi just received a call from her father-in-law Ning Zixuan, asking her to go home for dinner tonight.

Thinking of the time he went to his mother-in-law's house to see his tired eyes, Ye Xinyi would get goosebumps all over her body and want to vomit, but Ning Zixuan had a very good reason. When he went home to eat dumplings, he couldn't find a reason to refuse, so he vaguely said that if there was no official dinner party, he would go after get off work.

Seeing Ye Xinyi's frowning look, Qiao Liang said, "Minister Ye, what unhappy thing has happened?"

Ye Xinyi didn't want to tell Qiao Liang about her own troubles, so she took the document and said listlessly: "Today is the beginning of winter, don't you two eat dumplings?"

"Eat."

"Where to eat?" Ye Xinyi asked casually.

"Go to where everyone should go."

Ye Xinyi raised her eyelids and looked at Qiao Liang. The meaning of Qiao Liang's words seemed to be that he and Zhang Mei were not together and wanted to eat separately.

"Where are you going to eat?"

"I'll go to Secretary Li's house." Qiao Liang paused, "Do you want to go together?"

Ye Xinyi shook her head and then sighed again.

Seeing Ye Xinyi like this, Qiao Liang felt aroused in his heart. He remembered that Zhang Lin had told him about Ye Xinyi's marriage, and seemed to realize something.

Although I don’t know the specific reason, it is obvious that Ye Xinyi doesn’t want to go to her in-laws’ house for dinner.

Thinking about Ye Xinyi's unfortunate marriage, Qiao Liang suddenly felt a little sorry for this woman.

Qiao Liang didn't say anything, but went back to the office, touched his cell phone and called Zhang Lin.

"Sister Lin, today's winter is beginning."

"Yes, the real Dong wants to eat dumplings. I am planning to go home from get off work to make dumplings. Do you want to eat them?"

"Hehe, thank you Sister Lin, I have made an appointment long ago. Do you think your family is deserted?"

"Yes, you guy is good at speaking, but it will be lively as soon as you come." Zhang Lin said with a smile.

"You will be as lively as you don't have me."

"us……"

"Yes, like Minister Ye, like Jiang Xiuxiu..."

"Oh, yes, Xiuxiu can call her alone, I like... I'll ask her."

"I just went to Minister Ye's office and saw her frowning. I wonder if she was worried about the place where she was going to eat tonight. In fact, she could have an official dinner tonight." Qiao Liang had something in his words.

Zhang Lin was very smart and immediately understood what Qiao Liang said. Ye Xinyi was very reluctant to go to her in-laws' house for dinner. Every time she went there, she felt like she was on the execution ground.

"Okay, I'll call Xinyi now. I'm really understanding."

Qiao Liang hung up the phone with a smile.

After get off work, Qiao Liang walked out and met Ye Xinyi.

"Minister Ye, where are you going to eat dumplings tonight?" Qiao Liang said.

"Go to Sister Lin's house, Jiang Xiuxiu will go too." Ye Xinyi said relaxedly.

Just now, Ye Xinyi received a call from Zhang Lin, asking her not to go to her mother-in-law's house in the name of an official dinner, and came to her own house to eat dumplings, and said that this was what Qiao Liang reminded her.

Thinking of Qiao Liang helping him solve this problem, Ye Xinyi was a little grateful and couldn't help but smile at Qiao Liang.

Seeing Ye Xinyi laughing at him, Qiao Liang felt warm in his heart.

"Minister Ye, you should always have such laughter in the future, and you will have a few more times a day."

Ye Xinyi stopped laughing when she heard this, snorted, and then left.

Qiao Liang laughed silently behind his back.

As night fell, in the restaurant where Li Youwei was at home, under the warm light, Qiao Liang, Fang Xiaoya and Li Youwei and his wife sat around the dining table. Gu Shuyun made a table of hearty dishes and made mutton dumplings.

Li Youwei opened a bottle of high-alcohol liquor, Qiao Liang accompanied him to drink it, and Fang Xiaoya praised Gu Shuyun's skills while eating happily.

Looking at Fang Xiaoya's happy appearance, everyone couldn't help but sigh in their hearts when they thought that Fang Xiaoya lost her mother in her early years and now she lost her father.

Qiao Liang's eyes suddenly became a little wet. Alas, the child without a mother is like a grass, and Xiaoya has no father yet. Compared with Fang Xiaoya, her parents are so happy to be alive.

"Come on, Liangzi, have a few drinks with me." As if he noticed that Qiao Liang's expression was a little strange, Li Youwei raised his wine glass.

Qiao Liang calmed down and Li Youwei drank.

After drinking a few glasses of wine, Li Youwei sighed: "Liangzi, you have returned to the full-time department again, which makes me feel somewhat relieved. Alas, if it weren't for me, you should have been the deputy director now..."

Li Youwei's tone was filled with guilt.

Qiao Liang felt very uncomfortable. Li Youwei couldn't blame him. He didn't know the trap Chu Heng set for him, so he could only blame him.

"Boss, I did it all by myself. In fact, I harmed you and myself."

After hearing Qiao Liang say this, Gu Shuyun and Fang Xiaoya both looked at Qiao Liang unexpectedly.

Li Youwei remained silent.

Qiao Liang was impulsive at this time and simply said, "Boss, I finally figured out what happened when you went in. It was Chu Heng who tinkered with it. Chu Heng knew about the two gold bars from Zhang Mei, and Zhang Mei knew it was because of my momentary negligence."

"Ah——" Gu Shuyun lost her voice.

Li Youwei continued to remain calm and looked at Qiao Liang with gentle eyes.

Qiao Liang continued: "Boss, Chu Heng is my matchmaker with Zhang Mei. Because of your relationship with Chu Heng, and Chu Heng has always cared about me and has always taken good care of Zhang Mei. I am worried that you will think too much, so I never told you. For a long period of time, I am very grateful to Chu Heng, and I never thought of it anyway..."
