Liu Tianlai waited for Ye Yuting to leave, then came over from the flower bed. Without waiting for Wen Liang to ask, he whispered, "Zhou Yuanting has been arrested!"
Wen Liang raised his eyebrows, his eyes were filled with inquiry. Liu Tianlai nodded solemnly and said, "Director Zuo was recruited by Secretary Xu. She asked me to inform you that you should be the first to know such news..."
Wen Liang let out a long sigh, unable to describe the feeling in his heart, a mixture of excitement, complacency, and inexplicable loneliness. He walked back and forth a few steps, suddenly kicked a small stone beside the flower bed far away, and said with a smile: "Director Liu, you are so happy today, let's find a place to treat us?"
Liu Tianlai was eager for this. Zhou Yuanting was arrested, and then Xu Fuyan would make fundamental adjustments to the power structure of Qingzhou. After sowing rice for so long, it was time to harvest. Even if Wen Liang didn't say it, he would find a chance to communicate with each other. The early bird catches the worm!
"There's a Yuxiangyuan in the South Industrial District. Their specialty is the fat hand-caught lobsters. It's said that they use wild lobsters shipped from Dongchang Lake, with more than 20 kinds of Chinese herbs, more than 30 processes and special secret ingredients to make that taste. Why don't we go there and try it?"
Wen Liang snapped his fingers and said, "It's better to share happiness with others than to enjoy it alone. Why not call Zhihe to join us? I heard him complain today that you haven't been home for a long time and your aunt is jealous..."
Liu Tianlai usually showed his roughness to others, but at this moment, he blushed for a rare moment and said, "This bastard is itching again! Master Wen, I'm sorry to make a fool of myself. My wife is always worried about me. In fact, with my appearance, it's hard to find any problems with my work style!"
This is simply bullshit. Wen Liang said with contempt, "Uncle Liu, you might as well tell Zhihe this and see if he believes it. Are you kidding me? Let me tell you something. The colorful flags are flying outside, but the red flag is flying at home. This is a serious and great cause. You should control it yourself. In fact, it doesn't matter if all the red and colorful flags fall. As long as you don't lose your hat or your position because of it, there is room for recovery."
If Liu Zhihe heard this, he would have to sever ties with Wen Liang on the spot. What do you mean it doesn't matter if the red flag falls? That's my mother!
Liu Tianlai smiled awkwardly and said, "I know, don't worry, Master Wen."
Wen Liang's warning was well-intentioned, so that he could clean up his mess in advance, which was better than being exposed at a critical moment. He smiled and said, "I'm naturally confident in your work. How about this, just call Xu Yao and Ning Xiaoning together, it will be more lively with more people."
This is a case of giving a sweet reward after giving a blow. Although Xu Yao is not an important person and cannot really influence Liu Tianlai, but being able to say at home that Uncle Liu is a good person will surely make Xu Fuyan not scold his subordinates with a stern face for using connections.
The relationship gradually changes from distant to close. This time it is Xu Yao, and next time it may be Xu Fuyan himself. The biggest difference between China and foreign countries is that whether in officialdom or society, interpersonal relationships are always the most important subject, without a doubt. In particular, we must remember that leaders are also human beings, ordinary people with seven emotions and six desires. As human beings, they will have perceptions, impressions, likes and dislikes. Catering to their preferences is the only way to flatter them.
The two first went to the school gate and got on the white Jetta they had seen before. After waiting for more than twenty minutes, the bell rang for the end of get out of class. After another minute or two, the deathly silent campus seemed to come alive in an instant. The noisy and boiling voices immediately occupied everyone's ears and roared in their minds.
Liu Zhihe came out of the school, saw the car at a glance, and ran over quickly. Liu Tianlai stood beside the car, stopped him and said a few words, Liu Zhihe kept nodding, turned around and ran back, leaning against the door of the guard room, staring at the passing crowd without blinking. Wen Liang was sitting in the back seat and saw this scene through the window, shaking his head and laughing secretly, MB, this little guy pretended to be a good baby, it seems that he is really afraid of Liu Tianlai!
Xu Yao and Ning Xiaoning were about to go out holding hands when Liu Zhihe jumped out and stopped them. Before they could say anything, Ning Xiaoning frowned and said coldly, "Get out of the way!"
Fortunately, Coach Ning remembered that Liu Zhihe and Wen Liang had some friendship, otherwise he would have lost his temper and kicked him. Why would he waste time talking to you? Liu Zhihe was followed by a group of hooligans all day long. His reputation in school was not much better than Mu Shanshan's. Ning Xiaoning hated these ignorant guys who bullied classmates all day long. Seeing that he had actually provoked her, why didn't she take the opportunity to exercise her hands and feet
Xu Yao had seen Liu Zhihe and Wen Liang eat together several times, and they had fought side by side against Gu Wenyuan in the playground. He would not stop girls to chat up like other bored people. He pulled Ning Xiaoning, but there was no smile on his face, and said, "What's the matter?"
Liu Zhihe had heard that Ning Xiaoning from Class 7 was as cold as ice and snow, and was not easy to mess with. Today, when he first met her, he realized that the rumor was not only not exaggerated, but even exaggerated. This was not an iceberg, it was clearly the Ice Age!
Thanks to his eloquence, he explained the matter clearly in a few words. Xu Yao and Ning Xiaoning followed him to the Jetta half-believingly. Liu Tianlai had already returned to the driver's seat. It was too despicable for him to stand outside and wait, so he asked Liu Zhihe to go over to greet him. What's the point of having a son? He's here to be cannon fodder!
Wen Liang rolled down the window, stuck his head out, and waved to Xu Ning and the others. Thus, the scene of Liu Zhihe vomiting blood was staged magnificently. Xu Yao smiled sweetly and almost trotted over to greet them. Even Ning Xiaoning's mouth showed a smile like the first bloom of the moon, and her steps could not help but speed up a bit.
Two beautiful girls, one cold and one warm, with clear distinction between the two, showed sweet smiles to the same person at the same time. This kind of super-national treatment that would bring lightning and thunder from the sky was only enjoyed by Uncle Wen in the entire Qingyi Middle School.
Liu Zhihe was stunned watching all this, feeling jealous and envious: I am cuter than Wen Liang in appearance, and I am more muscular than him in body, and in IQ... well, we are on par, but in terms of character, there is a world of difference, of course I am in heaven and Wen is on earth. But even so, why do these two girls feel the same way when they see Wen Liang as when they see Andy Lau
The little fat boy was overwhelmed with a deep sense of frustration and hung his head in sadness!
Liu Zhihe sat in the front passenger seat, while Wen Liang, Xu Yao and Ning Xiaoning sat in the back seat. The two girls got in from both sides and sat on both sides of Uncle Wen, not intentionally to let Wen Liang have the blessing of having two wives. Liu Tianlai turned his head and smiled, "Come and pick up Zhihe from school, let's go have a meal together. Xiaoyao, what do you like to eat? You can choose the place!"
Xu Yao glanced at Wen Liang first with her big eyes, which were as clear as autumn water and rippling with light. She was indescribably graceful and charming. Her pale red lips opened, revealing her delicate and white teeth like shells. She said very politely, "Uncle Liu, it's better not to. Just take us home. If I trouble you like this, you might even get scolded by my father."
If Xu Yao went out to eat with Wen Liang alone, she would be willing to do so, but if Liu Tianlai and his son were to go, that would be another matter. Liu Tianlai was not sure what to say, so he smiled and turned away. Given his status, he could only say this once, and Wen Liang would naturally handle the rest.
Wen Liang smiled and said, "Your father is so lenient. Can he violate the party's style and discipline by eating a meal? Don't be afraid, we just ignore him!"
Liu Tianlai was sweating coldly. "My dear little ancestor, you are so brave to say this, but what's wrong with me listening to you?" When Xu Fuyan heard this, he asked, "Should I laugh or cry?"
Liu Tianlai started the car, sat upright, and coughed. Liu Zhihe was very honest, knowing that he had no right to speak here, so he buried his head in the seat and held his fart tightly.
"Heh," Xu Yao laughed, looking up at Wen Liang from the corner of her eye. Her nose wrinkled slightly, revealing a few cute little wrinkles. She pouted and said disdainfully, "You just dare to bully me. Didn't you behave like a child every time you saw my dad?"
Wen Liang made a hurt expression and said, "I am just a child, okay?"
Liu Tianlai saw this moment from the rearview mirror, and a breath of cold air rushed up his throat, choking him and causing him to cough violently, almost coughing up bile. Fortunately, Director Liu did not have the experience of later generations, otherwise he would definitely find an extremely appropriate word to describe all this:
Acting cute!
Xu Yao had been trying to be reserved in front of Liu Tianlai, but now she was laughing so hard that she couldn't help herself and hit Wen Liang on the shoulder, saying, "Why are you pretending to be cute? Are you afraid that you won't disgust me? Okay, I'm afraid of you. Just decide where to eat." She was born in an official family, and much of her education since childhood was related to this. She would instinctively refuse some unnecessary invitations, not that she really had any opinion of Liu Tianlai.
Ning Xiaoning didn't say anything after getting in the car, and Liu Tianlai didn't have the energy to pay attention to her. He wasn't so pitiful that he had to take care of every little girl's thoughts. After all, Liu Tianlai was the deputy director with real power. Apart from being gentle and understanding, there was no need and no way for him to spend much time on these children.
Even if it was Xu Yao, he just mentioned it. If she agreed, it would be good. If she didn't agree, there would be nothing to regret, and she wouldn't waste any time.
Wen Liang, however, could not ignore Ning Xiaoning like he did. Although Ning Xiaoning's personality might not care about these courtesies, since they were the people he invited, he had to treat them equally and not favor one over the other.
"Coach, long time no see. How come you are getting prettier? I used to think you were on par with Xu Yao, but after seeing you today... well, you are still on par!"
Xu Yao stopped pinching his waist and snorted inaudibly. Wen Liang glared at her, and the little girl immediately smiled and rubbed the pinched area twice to please her. When Wen Liang turned his head to look at Ning Xiaoning again, he stuck out his tongue proudly, looking very cute.
Ning Xiaoning said calmly: "I'm an ugly freak, and when the seats were changed, no one wanted to sit at the same table with me..."
Wen Liang smiled bitterly, knowing that Ning Xiaoning was helping Xu Yao. The news that she was sitting at the same table with Ji Su could not be hidden from them. When Ji Su asked about the results on the day when they came out, she said that she would sit at the same table with Ren Yi, also for this reason. Now she couldn't say that she didn't know about it beforehand and was deceived, right
Regardless of whether anyone believes this, if you dare to say it, you will be beaten to death immediately. If you get the advantage and still act cute, isn't that courting death
Wen Liang sighed in his heart. This was the bad thing about Qingyi Middle School. The gossip business was too developed. Any trivial matter could be spread widely. The right to privacy was basically zero. He smiled and said, "Didn't we learn a saying in Chinese class? Oranges grown in the south of the Huai River are oranges, while those grown in the north of the Huai River are bitter oranges. The idiots in Class 7 have a problem with their aesthetic sense. If they were put in Class 3, people like you and Xu Yao would be able to ignore everything like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves. From now on, everyone will be your slaves..."
Liu Tianlai had already closed his ears and was concentrating on driving. He was afraid that if he continued to listen, he would lose control of the steering wheel and get into a car accident. What should he do? Liu Zhihe pinched his right hand with his left hand, took a deep breath, and said silently: Be patient, be patient. As long as I can hold on until we get to the hotel without vomiting, there will be nothing to be afraid of in this life!
Wen Liang's flattery was painstaking. Not only did he curse all the men in Class 7 in a veiled way (you should know that Gu Wenyuan, Mu Shanshan and others are all in Class 7), he also cruelly ignored Ji Su's existence and expressed his surrender by throwing himself at her feet.
Being so shameless, at least I can calm down. Unexpectedly, the two women turned around at the same time, turned their heads, and said "Pooh" in unison!
Wen Liang was extremely angry and shouted, "You can insult me, but you can't insult my level of flattery! What's wrong with what you said just now? You can't make sense. I will never let you go!"
Ning Xiaoning turned her head away, not bothering to pay attention to him. Xu Yao looked at Liu Tianlai and saw that he was not paying attention to the back. She leaned over to Wen Liang's ear and whispered, "Silly boy, what do you mean by 'under the pomegranate skirt'? It's so ugly..."
Wen Liang suddenly realized that if this was said in the 21st century, the rotten girls would disdain it and might even tell you another one: There were two men, one named Chu He and the other named Dang Wu. But nowadays, girls would instinctively think that this sentence is the same as "It is romantic to die under the peony flowers and become a ghost", both of which are dirty and indecent words.
Uncle Wen has a lot of ways to solve this misunderstanding caused entirely by the principle of information asymmetry. He said, "In fact, this is a very beautiful story. It is said that during the Tianbao period, Emperor Minghuang of Tang was very fond of Concubine Yang. The ministers had some complaints, thinking that Concubine Yang was Daji or Baosi, and would bring disaster to the country and the people sooner or later. Once, when the Emperor was drunk, he asked Concubine Yang to dance in a pomegranate skirt to liven up the atmosphere. Concubine Yang said that all the ministers looked at her sideways and regarded her as an enemy, so they refused to dance. Emperor Minghuang of Tang was furious and issued an order. From then on, when the ministers saw Concubine Yang wearing a pomegranate skirt, they all knelt down and paid homage. This is the origin of prostrating under the pomegranate skirt."
Everyone in the car had heard this before, but they didn't know the story behind it. Xu Yao clapped her hands and laughed, "So that's how it is. I wronged you."
Ning Xiaoning stared at Wen Liang for a while, then suddenly her shoulders touched Wen Liang's and she smiled and said, "How come you know a little bit about everything?"
If you are unsure about foreign affairs, ask Baidu. If you are unsure about domestic affairs, ask your dog. Everyone on earth knows it! Uncle Wen secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This level was really difficult to pass. Liu Zhihe turned his head and looked at Wen Liang, his little eyes full of sympathy.
