"It's a bit noisy. Why don't you move to another place, Sister Song?" I asked proactively.

"No, I just want to have a meal." Song Fangfei said lightly: "Actually... I rarely come to this kind of place before."

"Oh." I thought to myself, this is just an ordinary small restaurant, why does Song Fangfei feel like she is not a human being? Does she really think she is a fairy?

I didn't take it seriously and just said casually: "This restaurant may not look like Jianghu cuisine, but it tastes good. It's a famous fly restaurant nearby. My friend brought me here. The first time I ate it, I was shocked. It's an authentic place.

…”

"You are based in Beijing, and you talk very much like Beijing." Song Fangfei smiled: "Which friend brought you here?"

This really made me wonder. It was my first love, Jiang Yan, who was born and raised in Linhai.

I sighed and said a little sadly, "It's my first love in college."

"Oh, everyone has their first love, which is young and beautiful." Song Fangfei commented lightly, and then asked: "Then are you married now?"

"Not yet, but it should be soon." I thought of Mi Lan at home, Mi Lan was really a little angel.

It brings me energy for life and hope for the future.

Song Fangfei picked up the tea cup again and responded in a low voice without saying much.

When the food came, she ate very little. She was full after taking one bite of each dish and stopped using her chopsticks. However, she gave each dish an evaluation: good, not good, moderately good, etc... and then she

Watch me eat.

It's really just a meal.

Her tone of voice was neither far nor close, and I still regret not being able to get closer to Song Fangfei.

After eating for half an hour, the dots of lights announced the arrival of night on the seaside.

Song Fangfei's cell phone rang, and after she answered the call: "Um, um, okay, I'm still outside now and will be home in about twenty minutes."

I smiled and said, "Is your lover urging you? You are very happy. There is a joke on the Internet that actually the happiest thing is that someone calls you home for dinner."

Song Fangfei's face remained as calm as water, without any disturbance: "I'm not married yet."

I was a little embarrassed, seeing this flattery slapped on the horse's leg.

Song Fangfei was about to leave, so I quickly said goodbye.

Song Fangfei said no, I thought she was angry, but she smiled at me again: "You know it's not a good thing to talk too fast, right?"

As the old saying goes, a woman's heart is like a needle in the sea.

This uncertain woman is truly unpredictable...

However, it was the rush hour in Linhai City, and it was difficult to get a taxi. Song Fangfei stood on the roadside for a while, but still couldn't get a taxi, so she had to say to me gently: "Xiao Lu, can you take me back?"

good?"

I was just planning to do it, but I couldn't figure out what Song Fangfei was thinking, so I didn't dare to ask for help again.

I quickly drove Song Fangfei home in my second-hand Santana.

Song Fangfei was sitting in the passenger seat with her eyes closed, as if she was relaxing.

I turned on the radio and put on a station that was playing soft piano music. I was bored and hummed along with the blind chicken.

Song Fangfei smiled: "This is Richard Clayderman's Starry Night, do you like it?"

I even heard the name for the first time, so I blushed, but in order to find a common topic with Song Fangfei, I was still shameless and started to comment in a particularly pretentious manner: "Well, my work is usually tedious and I feel tired. It's okay to go home.

I always listen to it for a while and find it soothing."

Song Fangfei nodded: "I often listen to it too."

I thought she was about to start a conversation, but who knew that Song Fangfei had nothing to say anymore.

After finally struggling to get to her neighborhood, downstairs where she lived, a man carrying a bag and a shiny back hair was already waiting with large and small bags.

"Miss Song, I've finally met you in person." The man greeted him warmly, with a smile on his face: "I'm not thinking about the end of the year. I heard that you are in Linhai, so I came here from Beijing to take you with you.

Got some souvenirs..."

He moved the two expensive-looking gift boxes in his hands, and said with a wide smile: "Of course there are some thoughts... They are all in the boxes, they are all in the boxes. Which floor do you live on, I will carry them up for you.

Bar?"

I was suspicious that at the end of the year, there were quite a few people who had gone out to do business, and they were here to give gifts to Song Fangfei.

Although I have never entered officialdom, I understand that there is no way to accept gifts in front of outsiders.

I was afraid that staying here would delay Song Fangfei's business, so I quickly asked, "Sister Song, you go ahead and I'll leave first?"

"Xiao Lu, don't leave in a hurry." Song Fangfei then looked at the man and said, "Deputy Director Chen, I always hear my dad talking about you, saying that the previous landmark building was very good, and it was only because of you.

It’s related to attracting investment from the south, right?”

The man laughed quickly and said: "They are all small achievements, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning! But Mr. Song... Mr. Song... you see, I will be forty-five next year, and I will stay at the bureau level.

In ten years, if you still can't be promoted to ministerial level, I'm afraid it will be the end..."

The tone has become tense, and there is also a feeling of pleading.

As I listened, I felt a little uncertain.

At first, I thought that this man was one of my colleagues. There might be some case in the Intermediate Court, and I wanted to rely on Song Fangfei to be arrogant and show mercy.

But when you hear it this way, it sounds like you are taking advantage of the end of the year to send money to run for office?

Weird, weird...

Song Fangfei is a judge of the court. Listening to the conversation, this person is also a deputy director in Beijing. There are many officials in Beijing, but the deputy director is already a level that many people from poor families can only look up to.

You still want to move up, so you come here to ask for help from Song Fangfei?

Even if Song Fangfei knew Mr. Cao Fuguo, would Mr. Cao Fuguo have such great energy?

Can a Beijing official travel a hundred kilometers to come to the sea to ask Song Fangfei to do something?

Or is it such an important thing?

"I can't help you with this matter, I might disappoint you." Song Fangfei smiled as she spoke: "I have a guest here, so it's not convenient for me to invite you up for tea. From Beijing to Linhai

It’s not close, so your trip will be in vain.”

I thought to myself that this was rejection, looking at the man's face.

Sure enough, Director Chen's face became much uglier and he insisted on giving the gift to Song Fangfei.

But after Song Fangfei Wan'er refused, she walked into the corridor and asked me to come up with her.

After entering Song Fangfei's home, Song Fangfei made two cups of hot tea without saying anything.

Sitting at Song Fangfei's house, although it was clean, I was used to chattering, so I always felt uncomfortable not talking.

I was about to open my mouth to speak when Song Fangfei made a silent gesture: "Shh, listen."

I stopped moving and heard someone's footsteps outside the door. A person knocked on the door twice and whispered: "Ms. Song, I know it's very honorable for you to see me during your busy schedule. I'll bring all the gifts."

I brought it as a token of my gratitude, so I left it at your door."

Song Fangfei had no choice but to open the door. I could only see her side face from here. Song Fangfei used the light in the corridor to say: "Now the central government has issued repeated orders prohibiting party members and cadres from accepting bribes. Thank you, Director Song. It stands to reason."

Say, you are also my elder, I will accept the cosmetics, and you can take the bank card in the bag."

When Director Chen saw Song Fangfei's repeated refusals, he sighed deeply, took his things, left the cosmetics, and went downstairs.

Song Fangfei came back with the cosmetics and casually placed them next to the shoe cabinet.

Only then did I notice that there were several bags next to the shoe cabinet. They were either cosmetics, expensive supplements, perfumes, etc. The prices were quite high depending on the brand.
