Secretary Li Runji had just left Secretary Lu's office. Xu Lizhong suddenly knocked on the door and walked in. He was holding his own mobile phone in his hand, as if he had just finished talking to someone on the phone. He looked at Secretary Lu timidly, as if he wanted to report something to him. But I don't know how to speak.
Seeing the look on Xu Lizhong's face, Secretary Lu was speechless, knowing that he probably had something unspeakable to tell him, so he smiled gently at him and said, "Lizhong, If there's something wrong with you, just tell me, it's okay,"
When Xu Lizhong saw Secretary Lu's gentle words and friendly demeanor, the tension and uneasiness in his heart eased a little, and he said in a somewhat apologetic tone: "Chief, Director Ye was held on so hard this time, and I have to bear a lot of responsibility. If I had not called him Director Guo Guangwei, or reported his matter directly to you when he asked me for help, maybe no one would have caught him now, and it is still involved. It’s up to Secretary Li. Public opinion thinks that the time Ye Ming helped Gong Zhichao escape from the special investigation, it was Secretary Li who said hello behind his back. In fact, this matter has nothing to do with Secretary Li. It’s purely my own fault. Director Guo, but they caught him by the pigtails and took the opportunity to target Secretary Li. I made a big mistake this time. Chief, please give me a scolding, or give me a few slaps. ,,Now that Secretary Li is being asked to take the blame, I really regret it,"
At this point, the eyes of this always calm and strong man suddenly filled with tears of regret.
Although Secretary Lu did not directly tell Xu Lizhong about Ye Ming's true identity, he knew that with Xu Lizhong's understanding of him and his extraordinary care for Ye Ming, and that he had originally arranged for Xu Lizhong to find Ye Ming's mother Zhao Han, Therefore, he guessed that Xu Lizhong must have known that Ye Ming was his biological son. The reason why he wanted to help Ye Ming at that time was because he was afraid that if Ye Ming got involved with Gong Zhichao's gang, it would affect Ye Ming's future, and such a thing , He couldn't come to ask for instructions, for fear that he would be worried or angry after hearing this, so he took it upon himself to go to Guo Guangwei. From this point of view, he was indeed a good and loyal subordinate, and also his son. Come to the most trustworthy big brother...
Thinking of this, Secretary Lu was agitated in his heart, so he pulled out a few tissues from the tissue box on his desk, handed them to Xu Lizhong, motioning for him to wipe his tears, then took a step closer, patted him on the shoulder, and treated him like a family member. He comforted him with a kind tone and said: "Li Zhong, don't worry too much about this matter. I told you last time: I don't blame you for this matter. I also know that you have good intentions. Since you are treating me Okay, it's also good for Ye Ming. Your original intention is to take Ye Ming out of the underworld gang in Xin Leng, so as not to affect his reputation and future. I know this very well, and I want to thank you. All this he did for me and for Ye Ming.
"As for the fact that things have developed to this point, this is not what you could have predicted in advance. Even I, the secretary of the provincial party committee, did not expect those people to make such a fuss to this point. In fact, you have been in this circle for many years, so you should understand something. Principle: What is going to come will always come. If it rains and my mother wants to get married, we can’t stop it even if we want to. So, you can think of it this way: The goal of those people is Comrade Runji. Even if If you didn't go to Guo Guangwei to intercede, those people would also find other excuses to throw dirty water on Comrade Runji. Therefore, the fire that is now burning on Comrade Runji is not caused by you, but because they have planned it for a long time. They will make this move sooner or later. There is no need for you to apologize for this. Do you understand what I mean?"
When Xu Lizhong saw Secretary Lu personally wiping his tears with a tissue and comforting and enlightening him with such gentle words, his heart was filled with emotions. He was extremely moved, but he couldn't express it with his mouth. He could only look at Secretary Lu blankly. He nodded desperately, but tears flowed down more violently.
It turned out that he had just captured a key sentence from Secretary Lu's words. Secretary Lu's original words were: "I want to thank you for everything you have done for me and for Ye Ming." This sentence seemed ordinary. , actually contains a lot of unusual information, that is: Secretary Lu has actually admitted to himself that Ye Ming is his biological son, so he said thank you for everything he has done for them. This sentence is equivalent to He doesn't treat himself as an outsider at all, but as his relative or family member. He only says this when he has extreme trust in himself. This kind of trust is extremely rare and precious. of.
Therefore, at this moment, Xu Lizhong couldn't help but have an old saying pop up in his mind: "A scholar is a confidant." He felt that being able to gain such trust from Secretary Lu, whom he respected so much, meant that he was willing to die immediately. of……
Secretary Lu stood Xu Lizhong there in a daze, his chest heaving rapidly, but he couldn't say a word. He knew that he was not coming to him just to apologize to him or express his regrets. He must have come to him. There were other important things, so he asked him: "Li Zhong, do you have anything else to tell me? Don't worry, just tell me if you have anything. I won't blame you."
When Xu Lizhong heard Secretary Lu's words, he recovered from the turbulent emotions. He subconsciously looked at his mobile phone and said in a low voice: "Chief, when you were talking to Secretary Li just now, the officer from the Provincial Public Security Department Director Guo Guangwei called me. On the phone, he acted a little scared and worried. According to him, since Chen Guitian, the criminal investigation captain of the provincial department, and Liang Tanghua, director of the K City Public Security Bureau, were double-crossed by the 5.16 task force, he I haven't been able to sleep well, and I feel worried and a little guilty: because Chen Guitian went to help Ye Ming solve Gong Zhichao's predicament under his order, and Liang Tanghua also made the decision with Chen Guitian for the sake of him, the director of the department. After understanding the decision to dismiss Gong Zhichao's task force, now that the two of them have fallen into trouble because of this incident, and I don't have the ability or means to save them, I always feel a little uneasy in my conscience.
