Chapter 538 [Secretary’s Troubles] (Part 2)
Zhang Yang said: "Then hurry up and return the things."
Jiang Le said: "I can't retreat. When I asked me for help, I was like a grandson. Now I have turned against each other faster than reading books. I said that if I can't do anything, I will shake out the gifts I received and everyone will split up."
Zhang Yang sighed and said, "I said you are usually smart, why do you make some low-level mistakes at critical moments? You finally get to your current position. Is it easy? As long as you work hard, you are about to make a comeback. What you fear most in the officialdom is economic problems and lifestyle problems. You accept gifts on your back. If this matter is revealed, what will people think of Du***? Can he spare you?"
Jiang Le said pale and said, "Director Zhang, it's too late for me to regret it now. I've been charged even if I don't. What should I do? What should I do?"
Zhang Yang said: "Be frank and lenient, resist strictness, and you hand over all the things you collect. It is best to communicate with Du*** first and admit your mistakes seriously and bravely."
Jiang Le's eyes were red with anxiety: "Director Zhang, if I talk about this, Du*** would definitely tell me to get out. I... I have no future in the future, I..."
Zhang Yang was really angry that he did not fight for his misfortune: "Then you think about the future now? Why didn't you expect it when you collected money? You are so adult, don't know that there is no lunch in this world? You are so stupid!"
Jiang Le lowered his head, like a defeated rooster.
When Zhang Yang saw his frustrated look, he couldn't bear to scold him anymore, and whispered: "How much did he take?"
Jiang Le said: "There are 3,000 in total, and there is a watch."
Zhang Yang said: "That's all?"
Jiang Le bit his lip and wanted to speak but stopped.
When Zhang Yang saw his expression, he knew that the boy had not fully explained. He felt a little unhappy inside and pretended to get up and said, "If you don't say it, forget it."
Seeing Zhang Yang leaving, Jiang Le hurriedly grabbed his arm and said, "Director Zhang, I said, I said everything...I..."
Zhang Yang said angrily: "Look at how you look, do you dare not act like this? I am most annoying to you."
Jiang Le said: "I invited me to drink, but I drank too much, so I went to Hong May sauna with him... and then..." He didn't continue, and his eyes looked at Zhang Yang with a pair of a pair of eyes.
Zhang Yang raised his hand and slapped him on the head, pointed at his nose and scolded: "You are so mean! After staying in the system for so long, can't you tell the difference between these interests?"
Jiang Le's face was flushed and lowered his head: "I've drunk too much, and it's my cousin who invited me...I..."
Zhang Yang said: "I can't help you with this matter, you can fend for yourself."
Jiang Le pulled his arm and said, "Director Zhang, I beg you. The relationship between you and Du *** will be resolved as long as you say something."
Zhang Yang shook his hand away and said, "Jiang Le, it's not that I don't help you. You have a problem with your own brain. Doing these things is not only related to your future, but also to Du ***'s reputation. Don't forget that you are Du ***'s secretary. Don't think about how to help Du *** solve problems, but instead do these things. Don't you feel embarrassed?"
Jiang Le lowered his head and said nothing.
Zhang Yang said: "We are a match between us. You are very smart and knowledgeable. I have always admired you very much, otherwise I would not treat you as a secretary to Du***. If you do something wrong, you have to stand up and face it. If you cause trouble, you have to take responsibility. Jiang Le, I can only say so. What should I do? You should consider it yourself."
Jiang Le watched Zhang Yang walk away, but finally didn't have the courage to chase him and then beg him.
Zhang Yang was very annoyed by what Jiang Le did. As the secretary of the municipal party committee, he was so unpredictable. Didn’t he think about the possible consequences when he was doing these things? Zhang Daguan has his own principles in doing things. These things that Jiang Le confessed were obviously contrary to his principles. But Zhang Yang was not convenient to interfere in this matter, and Jiang Le could only explain it himself. It can be imagined that Du Tianye, who is strong in nature, would not tolerate what he did, and Jiang Le’s life would be very likely to be ruined from then on.
It was the peak of travel left the provincial government guesthouse. Zhang Yang waited on the side of the road for a long time and saw no taxi coming. After looking at it, it was already 5:30 pm. He gave up the idea of returning to Nancy that night. He took out his cell phone and was thinking about asking a few people to go to Nanguo Villa to have a drink. His cell phone suddenly rang, but Gao Lianming called.
Gao Lianming's voice was loud: "Director Zhang, are you still in Dongjiang?"
Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Here, I haven't left."
"Have you got a meal yet?"
"Not eaten!"
Gao Lianming said: "It's good if you don't eat. Let's have dinner together tonight!"
Zhang Yang said: "You just returned to China. I'll treat you. Nanguo Villa, you can go there now."
Gao Lianming said: "No, I'll go to Bashu to have hot pot tonight. I'd better taste that. Sister Mengyuan treats her tonight!"
Zhang Yang was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that Qiao Mengyuan would treat him tonight. He suddenly felt energetic, but he was a little afraid to confirm: "Which sister Mengyuan?"
"Qiao Mengyuan, it was her who asked me to ask you."
Zhang Yang was secretly happy. Since he went to Nancy to take office, he had not taken the initiative to contact Qiao Mengyuan. The reason was very complicated. First, because Xu Jiayong. Although Xu Jiayong has become a thing of the past, his death left a shadow in Qiao Mengyuan's heart. Second, because of Qiao Mengyuan's family background, he did not want to get too close to Qiao Mengyuan, so he avoided others gossiping and thought that he had entered the upper-level relationship through Qiao Mengyuan. After experiencing a brief low point in Jiangcheng, Zhang Daren has gradually recovered his vitality and his heart began to move again.
According to the agreed time with Gao Lianming, Zhang Yang came to Bashu home ten minutes late. When he arrived, everyone else had already arrived. Gao Lianming, Qiao Mengyuan, Shi Wei, and a pretty girl named Tan Yueming, who is Gao Lianming's high school classmate and is now studying for a graduate student at Dongjiang University.
The business of Bashu people is very popular. Gao Lianming is a person who likes lively and doesn’t want to sit in the private room, so they sit in the hall. According to Gao Lianming’s words, this is to feel the unique atmosphere of Chinese food. Another reason is that there will be performances on the small stage in the lobby of Bashu people. They sit in some and can watch the excitement.
Although the store was full of heating, Qiao Mengyuan was still wearing a leather jacket. Shi Wei and the other girl had taken off their coat. The close-up wool sweater outlined the curves of their delicate bodies.
Gao Lianming saw Zhang Yang coming in from the store door and waved his arms at him from afar.
Zhang Yang walked over with a smile, Gao Lianming came up and invited him over. Zhang Yang saw that there was still an empty seat between Qiao Mengyuan and Shi Wei, so he sat between them.
Shi Wei said: "Why are you sitting here? Someone will come back."
Zhang Yang smiled and said, "I haven't seen each other for a while. When I meet, you still don't give me face. Who is it? It's more important than me?"
Gao Lianming said: "My sister!"
Zhang Yang said, "That's right! Of course my sister has to sit with me." He said to Shiwei with a smile: "You are my sister too!"
Shi Wei laughed and scolded: "Get out, I don't want a brother like you!"
Zhang Yang reached out to Qiao Mengyuan: "Mr. Qiao, I haven't seen you one day!"
Qiao Mengyuan smiled, and shook hands with him in front of everyone without refuting Zhang Yang's face. Zhang Yang's handshake was fake. Investigating Qiao Mengyuan's physical condition was real. Seeing Qiao Mengyuan wearing so much, he couldn't help but be a little worried about Qiao Mengyuan. When he touched Qiao Mengyuan's slender hands, he found that Qiao Mengyuan's skin was very cold. He quietly sent her an internal breath. Qiao Mengyuan felt a warm current silently sent into her body, which instantly dispelled the chill. He couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, and said softly: "I have been with my mother to Puning Temple to recite scriptures for a long time. The temple is too cold."
Zhang Yang said: "Old Qiao must pay more attention to your health."
Qiao Mengyuan nodded, and Shi Wei said, "Zhang Yang, you have to help me persuade my cousin. I have read some Buddhist scriptures all day long. If I continue like this, I am afraid that she will have the intention of cutting her hair into a nun."
Qiao Mengyuan said: "You will talk nonsense, order the dishes quickly, today we celebrate the return of the country in Ningming!"
Speaking of which, if Gao Lianming was able to study in the United States, Qiao Mengyuan was helping him. Gao Lianming always treated Qiao Mengyuan as his sister in his heart. The relationship between the two families was good in Yun'an. Qiao Zhenliang came to Pinghai to serve as the provincial party committee leader. Not long after, he transferred Gao Zhonghe to be the deputy director of the Pinghai *** Department. In fact, it has paved the way for Gao Zhonghe. Wang Boxing will arrive at the beginning of next year, so Gao Zhonghe can naturally replace him. It is natural to become a member of the Pinghai Provincial Standing Committee in the future.
Zhang Yang couldn't help but sigh in secret that it is absolutely impossible to be in the officialdom.
Because the dishes are buffets, Shi Wei and Tan Yueming went to order food. Qiao Mengyuan smiled and said to Gao Lianming: "Lianming, this girl is good and has a very accurate vision!"
Gao Lianming's face turned a little red, and he coughed and said, "Sister Mengyuan, we are actually classmates, and we really haven't developed to a deeper level."
Zhang Yang said: "No now, it does not mean that there is no future. Any relationship between men and women begins to develop from friends." When he said this, he deliberately glanced at Qiao Mengyuan. Qiao Mengyuan was so smart that he immediately realized what he said secretly. He just pretended not to hear it and said softly: "Lianming, I heard that you don't plan to go back to the United States?"
Gao Lianming said: "I was about to tell you about this. You know my dad's temper. He firmly opposed this matter. I want to ask you to help me and tell him."
Qiao Mengyuan said: "Uncle Gao's temper is that way, and I may not be willing to listen to him even if I say it."
Gao Lianming said: "I have thought about it all. Just tell him that your company is in some trouble now and needs a legal counsel. You can hire me to help you."
Qiao Mengyuan said: "Aren't you telling me to lie?"
Gao Lianming said: "Sister Mengyuan, I beg you. You must help me this time. In fact, even if I have passed the lawyer license, few people in the United States ask me to sue. Instead of waiting for unemployment, I might as well go back to China for two years and wait for me to accumulate some experience before going back. And..." He glanced at Tan Yueming in the distance and whispered: "Has my personal problem been solved yet? My taste is not good, and foreign girls are so bad that I can't adapt."
When Zhang Daren heard this, he couldn't help laughing and sprayed out a mouthful of tea in his mouth.
Qiao Mengyuan blushed and spat: "Your mouth is really annoying, it's a pair with Zhang Yang!"
Zhang Yang picked up a tissue and wiped his mouth and said, "It has nothing to do with me. I have never been in contact with foreign girls and have no experience."
Gao Lianming said: "The pores are large and thick skin. If you open the makeup bag, you will be a hair removal cream with a stripper. It looks like a flower from a distance, and you will see the tofu dregs close up."
Qiao Mengyuan said: "The more you talk, the more excited you are, you are not good things!"
Zhang Yang said with a grievance: "It was all he said, I didn't say anything."
Shi Wei and Tan Yueming have already returned, and Gao Lianming doesn't say anything anymore. He is very considerate to Tan Yueming, pulling the bench and pouring tea. Tan Yueming rarely speaks, and his pretty face is a little red.
The hot pot was delivered soon, and Zhang Yang wanted to have a dozen beer. Shi Wei was afraid of getting drunk and making a fool of himself, so he waved his hand to say he would not drink it anymore. Tan Yueming didn't drink it either. Gao Lianming took a bottle, and Zhang Yang handed another bottle to Qiao Mengyuan, but unexpectedly, Qiao Mengyuan shook her head and said, "I've quit drinking."
Although he had not been separated from Qiao Mengyuan for too long, Zhang Yang felt much distant this time, not because of him, but because Qiao Mengyuan was actively maintaining a distance from him.
The hot pot was just boiling, Shi Wei's cell phone rang. After looking at the phone number, he stood up mysteriously and went to answer the phone.
Gao Lianming said: "Why are you doing so mysterious?"
Qiao Mengyuan said calmly: "Someone has been chasing her recently, and her phone kept ringing all day long."
Zhang Yang was stunned and said in surprise: "I didn't expect someone to chase her!"
Gao Lianming smiled and said, "Don't be heard by her, otherwise she will turn against you." Gao Lianming still has some understanding of Shi Wei's temperament.
