When he woke up, Wang Qiang had come out of the bathroom and was lying on his back while drinking beer and watching TV. The women on the 6th and 8th are long gone. Seeing Chen Jin wake up, Wang Qiang put down the can of Heineken beer in his hand, handed him a cigarette, and said with a "**" smile: "How about it, isn't it good here?"
Chen Jin lit the cigarette, took a deep breath, nodded and said, "It's okay."
"It's okay? I'm telling you, even if a store like this is opened in the provincial capital, it is considered the first choice. How can you say it's okay?" Wang Qiang looked at Chen Jin strangely.
Chen Jin didn't want to get entangled with Wang Qiang on this issue, and deliberately switched the subject away: "I said Qiangzi, you seem to have a good relationship with Zheng Xiaofei? Why haven't you mentioned him?"
Speaking of this topic, Wang Qiang said with a slight complacency: “Actually, I didn’t know him well before. When it first opened last week, a friend took me here, and happened to ran into Zheng Xiaofei. , He just gave me a membership card, and later I had a meal together and it was considered familiar. Although this kid is the son of the executive vice mayor, he has no pretensions and is pretty good."
Chen Jin said, but he felt a little strange. In his previous life, Zheng Xiaofei was a shrewd, domineering and quite tactical person. Now listening to Wang Qiang's tone, it seems that Zheng Xiaofei is deliberately trying to meet him. The son of the dignified deputy mayor to please a county magistrate's son, sounds absurd.
"By the way, I have the opportunity to introduce you to you in the future. Mayor Zheng’s son, if you have more contacts, maybe it will be helpful to you in the future." Wang Qiang heard that Chen Jin was interested in Zheng Xiaofei and thought he also wanted to know this. The mayor's son.
In view of the lessons of the previous life, Chen Jin still wanted to remind Wang Qiang: "You are just an agency clerk, and you were not familiar with it before. Why is he so enthusiastic about you and he sent you a membership card? Isn't it the magistrate Wang
Wang Qiang thought for a while, but didn't think of any reason, he said nonchalantly, "I care about him! His Lao Tzu is the mayor, and my Lao Tzu is just a small county magistrate. He still has a place to ask for my old man? Don’t leave things in vain. Besides, let’s come here and it’s not that we don’t pay. Maybe it’s purely for the sake of business.”
Chen Jin shook his head, Wang Qiang still thought simple. Not to mention that Zheng Xiaofei's current identity is the layout of this Repulse Bay sauna, and there is no need to worry about business in Shicheng. Why insist on pulling customers like Wang Qiang. But he couldn't think of any reason, but he was a little worried and reminded again: "I think you still have to keep an eye on your relationship with him."
"Well, I know it in my heart." Seeing Chen Jin's solemn reminder, Wang Qiang nodded thoughtfully.
As he was talking, the door knocked outside and the waitress opened the door. A handsome young man appeared at the door. Although it had been ten years since, Chen Jin recognized at a glance that this person was Zheng Xiaofei who was just talking about.
"Qiangzi, I just heard from the front desk that you are coming today, I'll come to say hello." Zheng Xiaofei walked in and said enthusiastically.
After all, there is an executive deputy mayor’s father, and Wang Qiang quickly got up from the recliner: "Oh, Mr. Zheng, you are so polite."
Zheng Xiaofei shook hands with Wang Qiang enthusiastically, and turned his eyes to Chen Jin who was standing beside Wang Qiang: "Qiangzi, who is this?"
"This is my best buddy, Chen Jin, the section chief of the Infrastructure Division of Xinmei Transportation Bureau." Wang Qiang introduced with a smile.
Hearing the name Chen Jin, Zheng Xiaofei's expression stagnated a little, but immediately stretched out his hand to Chen Jin with a big smile: "It turns out to be Section Chief Chen, welcome to join in."
The change in Zheng Xiaofei’s expression has not escaped Chen Jin’s eyes. It is reasonable that the two met today for the first time. The chief of the bureau of his own small county is not worth mentioning in the eyes of the deputy mayor. Isn’t he early? Know me? Although Chen Jin had a question mark in his heart, he still pretended to be honored on the surface, holding Zheng Xiaofei's hand with both hands: "Mr. Zheng, I heard Qiangzi talk about you, and I am honored to know you."
"I am a businessman, and I have to pay attention to having a lot of friends in business. I may have trouble getting to Chief Chen's place in the future." Zheng Xiaofei said with a smile, and then asked politely: "Is the service satisfactory?"
After getting a satisfactory reply, he smiled and said goodbye: "Satisfied, then come to join us, you rest, I won't bother you much."
After Zheng Xiaofei went out, Wang Qiang suddenly said, "Chen Jin, did you notice that? When I introduced you just now, Zheng Xiaofei seemed to know."
Chen Jin didn't expect that Wang Qiang would observe so carefully, and nodded: "I also noticed." Zheng Xiaofei's performance just now was completely different from Zheng Xiaofei, who took his company ten years ago by Chen Jin. After thinking about it carefully, Chen Jin couldn't think of any reason for Zheng Xiaofei to know his name except for being reviewed by the procuratorate this time. Censoring oneself brought out Wang Peilin and indirectly attacked Du Hanjie. Is there still a shadow of Zheng Zhifei in it
Chen Jin said the former to Wang Qiang again. Wang Qiang knew that Chen Jin’s target was directed at his father. Hearing Chen Jin’s suspicion, Wang Qiang looked at the doorway where Zheng Xiaofei disappeared and said, “It seems that we need to keep a close eye. This place will be less frequent in the future."
The appearance of Zheng Xiaofei made Wang Qiang's high spirits instantly diminished, and the two of them didn't wait any longer, changing their clothes and paying for them to leave. When I walked out of the Repulse Bay, night had fallen. Still driving by Chen Jin, he found a local restaurant opposite the Shicheng Hotel, where the brothers had a few drinks.
Chen Jin calculated the date. Today is only Thursday, and there are still a few days before Wang Peilin's return next Tuesday. He can't stay in the Shicheng Hotel all the time. Since he can't return to Xinmei for the time being, Chen Jin wants to go to the provincial city of Chuzhou.
After four years of university and six years of entrepreneurship, Chen Jin's previous life spent a full ten years in Chuzhou, and he revisited the old place to find the memories of his previous life. At the same time, I happened to go to my alma mater to see my sister Xiner.
Chen Jin shared his thoughts with Wang Qiangyi. Originally, Wang Qiang wanted to go with Chen Jin, but remembered that he was going to have a foreign business delegation this weekend, and his department was in charge of attracting investment, so he couldn't go away. After thinking for a while, he said, "You will take a few one-inch photos early tomorrow morning. I will pick them up around ten o'clock and get your driver's license in the afternoon. Then you can drive my car directly to the provincial city, which is also convenient."
Chen Jin thinks about it, too. The distance between Shicheng and Chuzhou is nearly 300 kilometers. At this time, the Chushi Expressway was not open to traffic. You can only take the national highway. If you take a long-distance bus, it will take six hours. When it comes to Chuzhou, there is no one. The car was really inconvenient, and he was not polite with Wang Qiang.
After dinner, Chen Jin rejected Wang Qiang's proposal to go to KTV to continue drinking flower wine on the grounds of taking an early break. Wang Qiang also knew that Chen Jin really needed to recuperate now. Without reluctance, he drove back home directly.
Back to the hotel room, because I slept for 20 hours before and took a nap in Repulse Bay, Chen Jin couldn't fall asleep instead. He lay down and thought about Zheng Xiaofei, who was completely different from his impression today. . According to Zheng Xiaofei's performance today, he must know himself. After five years, Zheng Xiaofei's suppression of him is not just a business competition. Is he trying to retaliate against himself? In Chen Jin's memory, Zheng Zhifei completed the leap from deputy department level to deputy provincial level in just five years, which is definitely a prosperous official career. Moreover, his previous life betrayed Wang Peilin himself, which also prevented Du Hanjie's path of progress. If there is a shadow of Zheng Zhifei in it, then he should have achieved his goal. Why bother to chase yourself five years later? After thinking about it for a long time, Chen Jin didn't come up with a reason, and fell into a dreamland in a daze.
When he woke up the next day, Chen Jin walked around by the lake in front of the hotel. He moved his muscles and bones, breathing in the fresh air. He temporarily left the prosecutor’s review and Zheng Xiaofei behind him, went out for breakfast, and took a few shots by the way. One-inch ID photo that Zhang Li, etc. can take. Before nine o'clock, Wang Qiang hurried over to pick up the photos, and brought him a Motorola 8200c performance charger by the way.
Wang Qiang was pretty good, and he got his driver's license at noon in less than half a day. The two hurriedly spent lunch in the hotel restaurant, and Chen Jin drove Wang Qiang's Santana to Chuzhou.
