When he arrived in Chucheng, Chen Jing was familiar with the roads. The first thing he did when he arrived in Chucheng was to go to Wu Daming's house.
Wu Daming's wife is called Lu Honglian. She works in the Provincial Department of Health and is also a leader. Her work style is similar to Wu Daming's. She is very upright and decisive.
When Chen Jing came to her house, she was very polite. She invited Chen Jing into the house, poured tea herself, and said: "Lao Wu mentioned you before, saying that you are young and talented. When I saw you today, you are indeed young and can be fooled by my mouth."
Whatever you like is good."
Chen Jing was humble and brought out carefully prepared Lihe dried pheasant, green muntjac legs, mountain mushrooms and other local specialties.
Lu Honglian was not pretentious, and waved her hand and said: "Since you have brought so many things, you can stay at home for dinner tonight, and I will ask Auntie to cook more dishes!"
Wu Daming has a son and a daughter. The older daughter is already in her senior year of high school and is currently busy making up classes.
The son was at home, studying in the study room, and he looked very gentle. Lu Honglian asked him to come out and greet Chen Jing, and he called him Uncle Chen respectfully and politely. At first glance, he had a strict upbringing.
While the rice was not yet cooked, Lu Honglian chatted with Chen Jing, and he said:
"As for Lao Wu, in terms of work, I am worried about his bad temper. He has the temper of a scholar who is the best in the world and is not afraid of anything. If he has that bad temper, he will suffer big losses!"
She paused and sighed, "It's just this matter. There's nothing you or I can do about it. Lao Wu has a bad temper and no one else can change it."
"But in terms of life, there are some issues that I have to ask you to pay attention to. Lao Wu's habit is to drink boiled water in the dog days of summer. This must be clearly remembered. Also, he doesn't eat celery and pepper. He likes to eat seabass and braised pork.
But don’t let him eat more braised pork.
He is quite disgusted with tomatoes, but we have to force him to eat more..."
Lu Honglian talked about many trivial things, and Chen Jing hated that he couldn't use notes conveniently.
Since he became Wu Daming's secretary, he has found that many things are complicated and complicated, but they cannot be skipped and must be done.
Doing these things is a test and an exercise for a person. Chen Jing feels that his thinking is much more cautious now than before, and his calmness in doing things is much stronger than before.
When faced with some more complex problems, Chen Jing is much more organized than before.
After saying these things, Lu Honglian finally said: "The last thing I want to give special advice is. When men are outside, the thing that worries women the most is women's issues! Regarding this issue, Xiao Chen, I tell you, you have to be very cautious
vigilance.
Lao Wu is just not alert, he is always too wary of others, and he is prone to making mistakes..."
Chen Jing looked very embarrassed. He was dragged by the secretary's wife to talk about women's issues. He didn't know what to say.
He wanted to say that Wu Daming was so busy every day that he had to squeeze in time to eat, so he had no energy to think about women, but he felt it was inappropriate.
He could only nod his head submissively, with an awkward smile on his face.
"Beep, beep..." The mobile phone on the waist rang.
Lu Honglian said: "You answer the phone first, answer the phone!"
Chen Jing took out his mobile phone and saw the call. He stood up and opened the door. He went to the stairs outside and pressed the answer button.
Fang Wanqi's voice said: "Chen Jing, where are you? Why did it take you so long to answer the phone? Didn't you say you were coming to Chucheng today? You won't let me go, right?"
When Chen Jing heard Fang Wanqi's voice, his scalp went numb and he said, "Mr. Fang, I'm already in Chucheng, but I'm at the leader's house now. Is this okay? I'll call you tomorrow..."
"Oh, tomorrow! Your schedule is long enough!" Fang Wanqi said, with a hint of ridicule in her tone, "Which leader's house are you in? Are you at Wu Daming's house?"
"That's right, it's at Secretary Wu's house! It's Chinese New Year and the secretary can't come back, so he asked me to bring back some New Year's goods. My sister-in-law will stay with me for dinner tonight, and I can't refuse!" Chen Jing said frankly.
"Really? Then don't refuse, why don't you just have a meal?" Fang Wanqi said with a smile.
"Okay, I won't mess with you anymore, time is precious, I'll hang up first!"
"Beep, beep, beep!" Fang Wanqi hung up the phone immediately. Listening to the blind tone coming from the phone, Chen Jing sighed and entered the door again.
He stepped in and heard Lu Honglian's voice in the living room: "It's Xiao Fang! Okay, welcome, welcome! Guests who usually can't be invited actually took the initiative to call me today. It seems that our Xiao Chen is charming
He’s just bigger and can do better than me!”
"Okay, okay! Don't bring anything else. I'm in a hurry to bring you gifts!"
Chen Jing was a little confused. Lu Honglian hung up the phone and stood up and said: "Oh, my family said that you have a good relationship with Xiao Fang from the TV station. I was half-convinced, but I didn't expect it to be true. When she heard that you were here, she took the initiative to call me.
It’s the first time that I’ve called you for a meal!”
Chen Jing secretly sighed. He didn't know that Fang Wanqi and Lu Honglian knew each other, and judging from their tone, they had a good relationship.
Chen Jing has a general understanding of Fang Wanqi's mentality. The reason why she created some false news is actually to get rid of the entanglement of the person named Liao. From this perspective, Chen Jing feels that she is just a shield.
When Chen Jing thought of this, he felt uncomfortable. He was a man himself and had a girlfriend. How could he be used as a shield?
Fang Wanqi came quickly. She knocked on the door outside, and Lu Honglian went to open the door with light steps.
The two women exchanged pleasantries at the door. Lu Honglian was angry: "I told you not to bring anything over, but you just couldn't listen. What did you bring?"
Fang Wanqi said with a smile: "As a little thought, I brought an English learning machine to Wu Xiaodi. This thing is issued by our work unit and I don't need it, so I brought it here!"
Lu Honglian quickly called her son out of the study. He was very happy to receive Fang Wanqi's gift and said, "Thank you, Sister Fang!"
Chen Jing couldn't help but laugh as he watched from the side. Fang Wanqi came over and said, "Why are you laughing? I haven't seen your ability yet, but it's really unexpected that you can be noticed by Secretary Wu. We haven't seen each other for a long time."
Ah, your demeanor is different from before!"
Lu Honglian joked on the side and said: "If you, Xiao Fang, can like someone, why can't my Lao Wu like him?"
As soon as she said this, Fang Wanqi's face showed a hint of embarrassment that was hard to detect.
Today, Fang Wanqi was dressed very simply, wearing a green down jacket, her hair tied into a ponytail, and no makeup. However, this simplicity just brought out Fang Wanqi's most commendable advantage, her good skin.
Even though it's winter, Fang Wanqi's skin is moist, soft, and as fair as cream, as if water would come out of her with just a slight touch.
She looked at Chen Jing and asked, "Why were you laughing just now? Have you never seen a beautiful woman get excited? Or what happened?"
Chen Jing laughed and said, "I'm laughing. Just now, little brother Wu called me uncle, and then called you sister. Before I knew it, he was now an elder!"
Fang Wanqi was stunned for a long time, then suddenly laughed and said: "Who told you to always wear dark clothes at such a young age? You still have a rigid face and don't smile. If others don't call you uncle, what do you call you?"
Because of Fang Wanqi's participation, the atmosphere in the whole room became much more casual.
At dinner in the evening, Lu Honglian opened a bottle of red wine, and the three of them drank a little. They had a very happy and satisfying dinner.
After drinking and eating, Chen Jing proposed to leave. Lu Honglian naturally left her alone and looked at him and Fang Wanqi thoughtfully, with an unpredictable smile on her face...
…
Chen Jing's main purpose in going to Chucheng was to find Fang Wanqi.
In order to facilitate work, it is necessary to clarify the list of reporters sent by the provincial TV station this time and their travel schedule.
Because it was not convenient for the Propaganda Department to intervene in this matter, and Liu Mingming was not familiar with this matter, the task of gathering information and gathering intelligence was left to Chen Jing.
Chen Jing's move to find Fang Wanqi was a last resort. If he didn't ask Fang Wanqi for help, who else could he ask for help?
In the evening, the two went to the newly opened Starbucks in Chucheng to drink coffee. Chen Jing explained the situation, and Fang Wanqi frowned slightly and said nothing.
Chen Jingdao: "What's wrong? Are you having any difficulties?"
Fang Wanqi sneered and said: "Difficulties? Of course there are difficulties? Well, Chen Jing, since he became the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, he has become taller, especially his vision. Are ordinary people like us just like this?
Can't stand it?
I want to talk to you about something, ignore it, send you an email, and ask whether you will reply or not. I went back to Chucheng but never contacted you. What do you think you are doing? Are you really afraid that I, Fang Wanqi, will pester you? "
Chen Jing frowned, shook his head and said, "Mr. Fang, I feel ashamed when you say this! Who are you and who am I? Can I look down on you? Stop making such jokes!"
Fang Wanqi raised her eyebrows, looked at Chen Jing provocatively, and said, "Oh? Then tell me, what is my identity?"
Chen Jing picked up the coffee on the table and took a sip. It was very bitter. He pondered for a long time and said, "Lieutenant Colonel Fang came to see me. We talked for an hour!"
Fang Wanqi stood stunned on the spot, speechless. After a long time, she suddenly stood up from the chair and said:
"He's looking for you? Why is he looking for you? Why should he look for you? Damn it, this kid is lawless and impatient. I want to find him personally! I'm not done with him."
Starbucks was very quiet. Fang Wanqi was so excited that everyone around her looked at her like a monster.
Chen Jing was also very embarrassed and wanted to change tables...
Fang Wanqi's mood changed quickly. She was excited for a moment, then sat down on the chair again, tapping the armrests of the chair with both hands: "Hey, it's interesting, it's interesting!"
Her eyes were slightly closed, and Chen Jing was a little surprised, because he suddenly found a trace of moisture in the gaps between Fang Wanqi's neat eyelashes.
Is she crying?
Chen Jing was startled by this sudden thought. He quickly denied the idea. Fang Wanqi had already returned to normal. She looked at Chen Jing with a half-smile but not a smile: "Okay, since you know a lot, I will simply
I tell you everything!
I also want to tell you that I, Fang Wanqi, am good at pestering people, so what if I pester you? Who can do anything to me?"
