Chapter 197 [Save it if it should be released] (Part 1)
Because of the pass, Zhang Yang did not have any obstacles to entering and leaving the provincial party committee's family compound. He had to think about choosing a gift. He bought a fruit basket and brought another bottle of Chivas for fifteen years. He learned this etiquette from Hailan. Westerners often do this when they visit. Today he went to the home of Governor Song Huaiming. The gifts were too grand and were suspected of bribery because Song Huaiming was Chu Yanran's father. If he went empty-handed, it would be impolite.
The jeep was parked at No. 11 Ningjing Road, and it was still raining heavily outside. Zhang Yang jogged all the way to the gate of the Song family with a gift. The nanny had already opened the door and waited for Zhang Yang to come over. Zhang Yang walked into the hall. Although the distance was short, there were still a lot of raindrops on her body.
Song Huaiming greeted him with a smile and handed Zhang Yang a clean towel: "Wipe your face, I didn't expect it to be so heavy today!"
Zhang Yang called Governor Song politely and handed the gift in his hand to the nanny.
Song Huaiming said kindly: "There is no need to call me like this at home, so I'm better to listen to Uncle Song!"
Zhang Yang felt warm in his heart. With Song Huaiming's current status, being able to say this shows that he did not see him. However, the reason why he was so polite to him was because Zhang Yang understood it very well for Chu Yanran's face.
At this time, a gentle voice came from the inside: "Huaiming, is the guest here?"
Song Huaiming turned around and said, "Zhang Yang is here!"
Liu Yuying walked out of the inside with a blue printed apron. Although she was dressed as an ordinary housewife, she could not hide her innate quiet and noble temperament. This was the first time Liu Yuying saw Zhang Yang. She looked at Zhang Yang and showed a faint smile on her pretty face: "You are Zhang Yang? I heard your Uncle Song mention you many times!"
Song Huaiming introduced: "This is your Aunt Liu!"
Zhang Yang understood that this was Chu Yanran's stepmother. He had a sweet mouth and immediately shouted sweetly: "Hello Aunt Liu!" It seems that he had ignored it. If he had known that Liu Yuying was also in Dongjiang, he should have brought her a gift.
Liu Yuying smiled and nodded and said, "Go to the restaurant and sit down, Ma Lin, serve the food!"
Song Huaiming invited Zhang Yang to the restaurant to sit. Instead of using the Chivas that Zhang Yang brought, he opened a bottle of Negong Moutai. Zhang Yang took the wine bottle first, poured it for Song Huaiming, and filled it with the wine glass in front of Liu Yuying. This is his future parents-in-law, and the impression must be left.
Liu Yuying had already taken off her apron and walked over, and said with a smile: "Zhang Yang, I won't drink!"
Song Huaiming said: "Zhang Yang is here to visit his home for the first time, have a drink!"
Liu Yuying came to the table and sat down. The dishes on the table were all from her hands. Just from the tone technique, you can see that Liu Yuying's cooking skills are quite good. Zhang Yang didn't realize that Chu Yanran was thinking of Chu Yanran. Chu Yanran seemed to know nothing except for making some Western breakfast. It seemed that genetics were not accurate, but he immediately remembered that Chu Yanran was not Liu Yuying's biological daughter.
Song Huaiming picked up the wine glass and said, "Zhang Yang, I called you to come to your house, but I just didn't want you to be so restrained outside. This place is the same as your own, come here! Come and drink with me!"
Zhang Yang had a drink with Song Huaiming. Liu Yuying tried it casually and spent more time looking at Zhang Yang. The young man really couldn't find any fault in his appearance and looked very polite, but many things could not be looked at on the surface.
Song Huaiming said intentionally or unintentionally: "Is it a business or a private matter to come to Dongjiang this time?"
Zhang Yang's mind is so flexible. He is quite low-key when he came to Dongjiang this time. The reason why Song Huaiming knew that he was in Dongjiang was probably related to Liang Dongping's jumping off the building. Recalling Liang Dongping's performance at the press conference, Song Huaiming might already know that he went to the newspaper to find Liang Dongping. When Zhang Yang thought of this, he decided to tell the truth, but he was just a reservation. It was very difficult to get away with a political expert like Song Huaiming.
Zhang Yang said: "It is also for the public and for the private sector. First, I came to the provincial party school to get my last training certificate, and second, I was commissioned by the municipal government to communicate with Pinghai Daily and explain some misunderstandings." Zhang Yang's answer was very clever and there were no too many flaws.
Song Huaiming said: "Do you know Liang Dongping from Pinghai Daily?"
When Zhang Yang heard Song Huaiming mention this, he knew that Liang Dongping's affairs must be made clear today. In fact, this incident had little impact on him. He considered Li Changyu, because the storm caused by Liang Dongping had already put Li Changyu in a crisis. In a few months, the day of the Jiangcheng People's Congress will be held. In other words, the candidate for the mayor will be finalized. Although Zuo Yuanda is already the acting mayor, executive vice mayor Li Changyu has the opportunity to compete with him in terms of political achievements and abilities. At this time, Li Changyu of course wants to leave a good impression in the hearts of his superiors. This is crucial to whether he can become mayor. However, the education system is his job in charge. If the Education Bureau has had such a big thing, Li Changyu cannot put aside the relationship. Zhang Yang understands this truth, so he still needs to seize the possible opportunity to explain these things clearly.
Zhang Yang nodded and said, "I know, he has been following and reporting fundraising events in Jiangcheng Education Bureau recently. Some reports are true, while others are very exaggerated. In Jiangcheng, it has caused quite bad effects in Pinghai Province. The city leaders believe that his reports are hindering stability and unity. I will come this time and have the opportunity to communicate with him so that he can speak truthfully and not add false elements to the reports."
Liang Dongping has also gained fame since the press conference. Even Liu Yuying, who had just arrived in Dongjiang, had heard of him. Liu Yuying said: "Is this Liang Dongping mentally wrong? Just talk nonsense in public, but he actually wanted to jump off the building. It's simply ignorant!"
Song Huaiming smiled faintly, he picked up his glass and took a sip of wine and said, "The impact of Jiangcheng Education Bureau is very bad. Are you very familiar with Deputy Mayor Li, who is in charge of education?"
Zhang Yang was stunned. Song Huaiming was indeed extraordinary. After just saying a few words, he realized that he was protecting Li Changyu, and he obviously had some understanding of his relationship with Li Changyu.
Zhang Yang nodded: "I'm very familiar. I'm the cadre he promoted!" This reason is very direct and sufficient.
Song Huaiming said: "You did a good job in Jiangcheng. I have heard of you many of your achievements. You are young and very brave!"
Zhang Yang smiled modestly: "I am quite brave, but I often don't consider the consequences when doing things, so I often make mistakes!"
Liu Yuying smiled and said, "No young people can do not make mistakes. Only by learning from one's mistakes can one gain wisdom!"
Song Huaiming got up and went to answer the phone.
Liu Yuying asked, "Zhang Yang, have you known Yanran for a long time?"
Zhang Yang nodded: "I met her when I was in Heishanzi Township, so it's been a year and a half!"
"Are you two in love?" Liu Yuying asked bluntly. Song Huaiming was difficult to ask about such words, but it was extremely natural for Liu Yuying to ask about them as the hostess.
Zhang Yang's answer was also very slick: "I'm not hiding it from Aunt Liu, I'm thinking about her!"
Liu Yuying smiled. She was engaged in education and had considerable experience in people's psychological activities. She heard that Zhang Yang was avoiding the main side of the problem. She did not give Zhang Yang the chance to escape and continued to ask: "As far as I say, Yanran likes you very much. Do you like her?"
Zhang Yang understood that Chu Yanran's stepmother was forcing her to express her opinion. He nodded. There was nothing to hide. He really liked Yanran.
Liu Yuying was very satisfied with Zhang Yang's reply, and then asked about Zhang Yang's family and work situation. In short, she acted like a mother-in-law who had first met her son-in-law. Although Zhang Yang was fully prepared, she was still overwhelmed. It was obvious that Liu Yuying's concern for Chu Yanran was from the bottom of her heart.
Song Huaiming finally answered the phone and Liu Yuying stopped asking Zhang Yang. Although the weather was cool, sweat still oozed from Zhang Yang's forehead. Seeing his appearance, Song Huaiming knew that his wife had questioned him very much. Song Huaiming smiled and said, "Yuying, when did you change your household registration? Zhang Yang's first time visiting the door, don't scare him!"
Liu Yuying smiled and said, "Just talk about family matters, yes! I'll give you some noodles, you guys will chat!"
Song Huaiming casually asked about some things about Jiangcheng travel. When facing Song Huaiming, Zhang Yang was polite, modest and cautious all night. The man in front of him was not only his future father-in-law, but also the governor of Pinghai Province. After Gu Yunzhi arrived, he would most likely become the head of Pinghai. He must be careful when he gets along with him.
The topic finally returned to Chu Yanran. Although Song Huaiming is Chu Yanran's father, she still needs to understand her recent situation through Zhang Yang. Zhang Yang talked about Chu Yanran's care for her grandmother in the United States, and told Song Huaiming that Chu Yanran is likely to return to China on this National Day this year.
Although Song Huaiming wanted to see his daughter very much, he knew his daughter's resistance to him. Zhang Yang did not say anything after all, and the words were changed to: "I'll notify me when I come to Pinghai."
Zhang Yang nodded, and knew in his heart that due to Chu Yanran's relationship, there would be a lot of connections between him and Song Huaiming in the future.
When Zhang Yang went out, the rain was still falling. He got into the car and when he started the car, he found that Gu Jiatong's Mercedes-Benz passed by. Zhang Yang hurriedly picked up the phone, but when he finished dialing Gu Jiatong's number, he hesitated for a moment, and his finger finally did not press the green dial button.
Hu Yinru walked out of the detention center. The sky had cleared up. The asphalt road washed by the heavy rain was dazzling. She covered the sun with her hands and looked ahead with her beautiful eyes, but she did not see the expected figure. Hu Yinru's heart sank unconsciously, and an unspeakable sense of loss surged into her heart. She walked slowly along the road with a travel bag, her eyes becoming empty and vague, and her heart was confused. The road that was not long seemed endless in her eyes and would never end. The case of smuggling car finally came to an end, and she finally cleared her guilt, but this incident was once in her life.
The drastic changes, from today on, she will draw a clear line with Zhou Yunfan's business, she will start her own life, Hu Yinru is an independent person, she knows what she should do and what to do at any time, and a shadow is always shaking in her mind. Before she walked out of the detention center, she thought that the first person she saw after going out was him, and her plan for her future life was all around him, but she couldn't understand why he suddenly chose to disappear when she was in trouble, when she was running around, and when she finally regained her freedom.
There is a fork in the road ahead, to the left or to the right? Hu Yinru bit her cherry lips, and her heart was filled with hesitation. This hesitation quickly evolved into an unprecedented loneliness. Even in the days of imprisonment, Hu Yinru had never felt such loneliness and helplessness. Such grievances, she threw her travel bag under her feet, lay on the trunk of a tree, and began to sob in a low voice.
He patted her arm with one hand, and Hu Yinru raised her head with red eyes and saw Zhang Yang's heartless smile: "The car broke down, I'm here!"
Hu Yinru hurriedly wiped away the tears from her face.
"Don't want to pay attention to me? Then I'll leave?"
"Have dinner together tonight?" Zhang Yang said.
"I have something to do tonight, so I'll contact you later!" Gu Jiatong hung up the phone after saying that.
Zhang Yang put down the phone with some loss, but felt Hu Yinru's little hand holding him. Looking at Hu Yinru's charming eyes, Zhang Yang suddenly felt a sense of restlessness. He suddenly pushed Hu Yinru's delicate body down on the bed and then pressed him heavily.
"Are you very conflicted in your heart?" Hu Yinru hugged Zhang Yang's body from behind.
Zhang Yang nodded: "I'm really not a good person. I know I shouldn't provoke you, but I still can't control myself."
Hu Yinru attached herself to his ear and said, "I like it!"
Zhang Yang said: "I know everyone is selfish, especially in terms of emotions. But for my own satisfaction, I want you to bear my affection. How unfair it is to you."
Hu Yinru whispered: "In the past, you were more than just passionate in my eyes, they were simply passionate. I didn't like people like you. I never thought I would give myself to an inattentive man like you. But after this incident, I found that you are sincerely devoted to everyone. You are real. I realized that there is indeed a person like you in the world. I knew that I shouldn't be entangled with you, but I asked myself, if I didn't have you, would I live a better life?" Hu Yinru hugged Zhang Yang tightly and said, "No!"
Zhang Yang felt a little moved. He came from the Sui Dynasty. His views on emotions were completely different from those of modern people. However, as he lived in modern society over time, he began to realize that his emotional pursuit had hurt these kind girls. He was confused and guilty because of this, but he still didn't know how to do it.
Zhang Yang whispered: "If possible, tell me what to do?"
Hu Yinru said: "I will help you! I know what is the most contradictory thing in your heart? Will I untie this knot for you?"
"May I?"
