Chapter One Hundred and Nineteen [Lick Calves] (Part 2)
Chapter 119 [Love in Love with a Cat] (Part 2)
He Xinyan changed into a down jacket and rode her bicycle out, Zhang Yang was still standing there, still in the same position and expression. He Xinyan stretched out her little hand and shook it in front of him: "Hey! You are stupid!"
"You're stupid!"
Princess He Xinyan smiled: "Come up!"
“Where to go?”
"Behind me!"
"Behind you?"
He Xinyan then chewed the ambiguousness of this sentence and cursed with a blushing face: "Shameless, stinky hooligan! Let you get in the back of the car!"
Zhang Yang nodded and jumped behind the bicycle to sit. He Xinyan shook the handlebars twice before finding balance again and rode forward with Zhang Yang. Zhang Yang sat in the back honestly, thinking about the scene just now in his mind. He really didn't expect that Wei Zhicheng was such a person. If He Xinyan hadn't rushed out to rescue the situation in time, things would have gone worse. Although he and Gu Jiatong did have this fact, Zhang Yang did not feel any guilt towards Wei Zhicheng. Gu Jiatong and him had no feelings for him. Their marriage was in name only. Since neither party loves each other, why should we maintain it? What qualifications do Wei Zhicheng have to blame Gu Jiatong?
He Xinyan took Zhang Yang to the night market next to Mingzhu Bridge. She locked her bicycle and said to Zhang Yang: "I don't have that much money, I can only treat you to the night market!"
Zhang Yang smiled and said, "I am very moved if I have this kind of heart. So... I'll ask you. Thank you for helping me tonight!"
He Xinyan took him to a night market where he often ate, ordered a plate of lobster, fried and dried with oil, and ordered two casseroles: "I treat you, you turned out to be a guest, I'm not that stingy!"
Zhang Yang asked for a bottle of Qingjiang Daqu. He is still depressed and has some intention of drowning his sorrow by drinking.
He Xinyan asked for a bottle of beer to drink with him and whispered: "I feel even more worried when I drink to drown my sorrows. I think, don't drink too much, her name is Gu Jiatong, right?"
Zhang Yang peeled a lobster and put it in his mouth: "You are so curious!"
"You two are really doing something?"
Zhang Yang glared at her: "Curious to kill the cat, why are you covered in your mind with some messy thoughts?"
He Xinyan smiled and said, "I can see that when I talk to you, she was always looking at me, and I can see that she was jealous."
"With you, some people will be jealous?"
"A woman's mind is very detailed, Zhang Yang, you are not as good as me in this regard!" He Xinyan picked up the bottle and ran into Zhang Yang: "I said you are very capable too. Are you not afraid of being punished by God?"
Zhang Yang had just finished drinking a sip of wine, but was choked by her words. After a series of coughs, he finally recovered. He picked up a napkin and wiped his mouth and said, "I will never dare to eat your meal again. It is not worth it to pay for a meal."
He Xinyan whispered: "You're guilty?"
"I'm walking straight, what's there to be guilty?" Zhang Yang looked at He Xinyan with some surprise and said, "I said, you are so kind to me, why don't you fall in love with me?"
"Tsk, you are the ones? From head to toe, from body to mind, I can't find a slight purity. How could I fall in love with a thief and a hooligan!"
"Don't force me to get mad at you!"
"You dare!" He Xinyan picked up the wine bottle on the ground.
The two of them looked at each other with a fierce look, and suddenly laughed at the same time, laughing so happily and so happily.
Until Zhang Yang boarded the plane, Gu Jiatong did not take the initiative to contact him. Zhang Yang thought about it over and over again, but before leaving, he gave up the idea of talking on Gu Jiatong's phone. What happened last night happened. I guess Gu Jiatong's mood was complicated and depressed at this time, so it would be better to let her calm down.
After leaving Hotpot City that night, Gu Jiatong drove around the city aimlessly until midnight, and then returned to her home at No. 9 Ningjing Road. She couldn't sleep all night that night. She had a premonition that this matter would not pass soon. Sure enough, Wei Zhicheng came to her home early the next morning. This time Wei Zhicheng was very calm. He came to see his father-in-law Gu Yunzhi.
Because it was Sunday, Gu Yunzhi got up early in the morning to play basketball with Gu Yangyang in the yard. When he saw his son-in-law coming, he smiled and called Wei Zhicheng to the living room, asking Gu Yangyang to shout Gu Jiatong down.
Wei Zhicheng's expression was very serious, and he whispered: "No need, I have something to talk to my dad this time!"
"Talking to me?" Gu Yunzhi was a little surprised. He still sat down on the sofa. He was also very worried about the current situation of his daughter and son-in-law. He advised his daughter many times, but it seemed that the relationship between Jiatong and Wei Zhicheng seemed to have come to an end, and there was no sign of reconciliation.
Wei Zhicheng whispered: "Dad! I didn't want to say it at first! But... but I don't think I should hide it from you."
Gu Yunzhi hated this hesitant way of talking the most, but he did not express his displeasure on his face and smiled and said, "Family, what do you say!"
Wei Zhicheng mustered up the courage to say, "Jiatong is someone outside!" This sentence shook Gu Yunzhi's heart like a bolt from the blue, and also shocked Gu Yangyang, who was listening.
The smile on Gu Yunzhi's face immediately disappeared.
Wei Zhicheng said: "I have inquired about it. That person is named Zhang Yang. He is a small cadre in Chunyang's Beijing Office. Dad. They have been together for a while..."
Gu Yangyang interrupted him angrily and said, "Brother-in-law, how can you say that to my sister? My sister is not that kind of person, and Brother Zhang is not that kind of person. Why do you slander my sister!"
Wei Zhicheng whispered: "Yangyang, I did not slander her. I asked someone to check it out. Last night, I also saw them having a close meal together, and there was an ambiguity between them!"
Gu Yunzhi suddenly stood up and said, "Do you believe it?"
Wei Zhicheng nodded.
Gu Yunzhi pointed to the door and said calmly: "Go out!"
Wei Zhicheng looked at Gu Yunzhi in shock, but he did not understand what his father-in-law meant.
Gu Yunzhi's face was covered with an unprecedented layer of coldness and contempt: "Get out!"
"dad……"
"I am not your father. You know how to respect Jiatong, but you don't know how to respect me. Don't think I don't know what you did after marriage. Don't say that Jiatong hasn't done it, so what if you do it? She is my daughter, I am her father. Whether she is right or wrong, I stand on her side unconditionally. I protect you very much! I give you a face, but you don't want it!"
Wei Zhicheng seemed to have been whipped by someone. He stood up dejectedly and whispered: "I...I just want to save it..."
Gu Yunzhi had turned around.
Gu Yangyang said to Wei Zhicheng without hesitation: "Have you heard it?"
An extremely resentful expression flashed across Wei Zhicheng's handsome face. He left the Gu family in shame. When the gate of No. 9 Ningjing Road was closed behind him, he realized that maybe he had no chance to step into this gate again.
When Gu Yunzhi turned around, he saw his daughter standing on the stairs. Gu Jiatong looked at her father, tears were already flowing all over her pretty face. There was a deep gap between her and her father. She thought that her father did not care about her feelings and her happiness, but now she realized that although her father did not say it, she always put her in an extremely important position in her heart. Her father has always loved her deeply.
"Dad..." Gu Jiatong came to her father, her voice trembling and she suddenly threw herself into her father's broad and warm embrace.
Gu Yunzhi gently stroked his daughter's long hair with his generous palm and smiled: "Silly girl, she's so big, she's still crying, making your sister laugh at me!"
"I'm sorry, dad..."
Gu Yunzhi stretched out his hand, grabbed the slender hand of his little daughter, and said to his two daughters word by word: "We are a family, remember, the family should never say sorry!"
It was the end of the year, and Li Changyu was always hung there. The city did not continue to hold him accountable or arranged a job again. After divorced his wife, he left the house with Ge Chunli and rented a three-bedroom apartment in the western suburbs of Jiangcheng, and took over his sister-in-law. His life was dull.
Ge Chunli saw that Li Changyu was hidden under the calm and comfortable surface of his life. He worked hard for more than 20 years and finally achieved his current status. He was suddenly attacked into the mortal world. Li Changyu's heart was undoubtedly tormented and painful. But Ge Chunli didn't know how to persuade him. This is the case with political struggle. Once he lost, it would be difficult to reverse the predicament unless a miracle happened. She didn't want to watch the person she loved sink into. She persuaded Li Changyu to call Hong Weiji more than once. They were old classmates, and maybe Hong Weiji could help.
Whenever he mentioned this, Li Changyu shook his head with a wry smile. Through this political storm, he saw clearly many people around him. Although Hong Weiji is his old classmate, he usually adopts the principle of self-protection in politics. What's more, this political change in Jiangcheng is basically a game between Gu Yunzhi and Xu Changde. The reason why he ended up like this was because Gu Yunzhi regarded him as Xu Changde's team, and Hong Weiji's situation was not much better than himself. Now Jiangcheng mayor Li Guo is withdrawing due to illness. Deputy Mayor Zuo Yuanchao has become the acting mayor of Jiangcheng. Before being on the double track, he was the executive vice mayor of Jiangcheng. According to the rules, he should have become the acting mayor.
Hearing such news, Li Changyu could not have no idea. He lamented that fate was not fair to him. Is his career destined to end? Just as Li Changyu was gradually despairing, the notice of studying at the Provincial Party School was delivered to him.
This study class was initiated by the Provincial Party Secretary Gu Yunzhi. The students participating in the training were all deputy mayors of prefecture-level cities in the province. When Li Changyu received the notice, he was frightened and uneasy. After experiencing the storm a while ago, he developed an inexplicable awe of Gu Yunzhi, the big boss in Jiangcheng. This time he asked him to study in the province. I don’t know whether it was a good or a bad thing.
Although Li Changyu could guess that this time is probably a good thing. According to common sense, a cadre who is about to be abandoned will not have the opportunity to participate in the Party School study class, especially the study class of this nature. However, the content of this study class is that Li Changyu couldn't help but feel a little nervous about strengthening the integrity and self-discipline of party members and cadres. Shouldn't he let himself go and see the negative examples for everyone? This possibility is slim, and Secretary Gu should not be so bored.
Because of this notice, Ge Chunli should be the happiest person. She thought this must be a good thing. Even if the province is still unhappy with Li Changyu, letting him participate in the study class means that he may have to be appointed again. For Li Changyu, no matter how bad it is, it can be so bad.
When Li Changyu regained hope, Zhang Yang, who was in Beijing, was entangled with many busy affairs. The more the year-end, the busier the unit, the more the year-end. First, Chunyang came to several more petitioners. Zhang Yang and the petition office were very busy. First, they persuaded them with great pains and threats and intimidation. No matter what means they used, they had to ensure that these people returned to Chunyang honestly. This was impossible. If everyone went to Beijing to petition whenever they had something to do, and the 1.2 billion Chinese people would take turns doing this, they would probably exhaust the national leaders.
Zhang Yang was not very good at persuading him, but threats and intimidation were his strengths. Almost all, after he used this killer move, the petitioners took the bus back to Chunyang honestly.
Another important thing at the end of the year is to give gifts. The Beijing Office not only has to give gifts to superior units, but also to brother units. If someone gives you it, it is wrong for you not to return the gift. In December, there are also many cadres coming to Beijing from Chunyang to do business. Chunyang Beijing Office has reception tasks almost every day. The small county-level Beijing Office has a lot of money to pay for the department. Although Yu Xiaodong is responsible for the main reception work, he still has to do necessary social activities, especially when the superior leaders come.
The business of the farmyard is getting more and more prosperous, and the reputation of the secret aphrodisiac medicinal meals in the palace is getting more and more popular. Many people here basically come for this special dish of 588. The ones who booked this dish have been scheduled before the Spring Festival. Even Xu Zida from the Ministry of Land and Resources have to order this dish through connections.
