The lights are coming on.
Chunxi Road was quiet, with a few pedestrians walking hurriedly occasionally, and a young couple holding hands, leaning on each other's shoulders, walking leisurely on the road. The street lights were arranged in two rows, brighter than the usual streets, without the hazy dimness. A black car with a license plate number of Jiang C00001 appeared quietly at the end of the road, passed by the young couple, and slowly drove into the No. 17 compound. The two tall iron gates then closed, separating the inside and outside of the gate into two worlds.
"Look, that's the municipal party secretary's car number one." The boy pointed to the girl.
"It's so mysterious. I really want to go in and see what's inside?"
"It doesn't matter. When I become a high-ranking official in the future, I'll take you wherever you want to go!"
"Well, it's settled..."
This was not the first time Zuo Yuxi came here. As the daughter of the former municipal party secretary Zuo Jing, she knew every plant and tree here better than Xu Fuyan. When she entered the hall, the completely different layout told her again that this was no longer her former home, and the person who was entrenched here, overlooking Qingzhou, was Xu Fuyan!
Wen Liang was sensitive to Zuo Yuxi's subtle emotional fluctuations. It was inevitable that he felt some emotions when he revisited the old place. He touched her shoulder lightly when he walked in. The two looked at each other and smiled slightly.
Xu Yao sat cross-legged on the sofa barefoot, wearing a pink cotton pajamas, watching TV intently, her little fists occasionally swiping through the air, shouting "Cut him, cut him". She was watching intently, facing the door sideways, and did not notice Wen Liang and his group. The nanny who opened the door was about to call her, but Wen Liang raised his finger, shushed her, and tiptoed over. Wen Huaiming pretended not to see it and whispered, "Auntie Zhang, go and rest, there's nothing to do tonight."
After the nanny left, Wen Huaiming considered his words and said, "Director Zuo, please sit here for a while. Secretary Xu is reviewing documents in the study. I'll go take a look first."
This was not the first time Wen Huaiming had dealt with Zuo Yuxi, but it was definitely the first time they had spoken so closely. What was Zuo Yuxi's status in Qingzhou before? Although Wen Huaiming was in the Municipal Party Committee, he basically couldn't talk to Zuo Jing. When he occasionally went to the education system for research, Deputy Director Zuo rarely accompanied him at the wine table. The few times he did, he left a deep impression on Wen Huaiming. She was cold, arrogant, self-conceited, elegant in manners, and charming in temperament. Almost all the compliments she could use were not too much.
He naturally dared not neglect such a person, but Xu Fuyan also had his own reserve, and it was impossible for him to wait for Zuo Yuxi to come. As a subordinate, Wen Huaiming could only try his best not to let Zuo Yuxi feel despised. Who knew if this young lady would turn around and leave in anger
How did Wen Liang and Zuo Yuxi know each other, what was their relationship, and why would she trust a young boy? Wen Huaiming tried his best but failed to answer any of these three questions. Old Wen had no other choice but to give his son the answers.
Zuo Yuxi smiled and nodded. No matter what, she was a junior after all. Xu Fuyan had given her enough face by sending car No. 1 to pick her up. It was natural for her to be cautious at this time. It was also human nature. Wen Huaiming had only been here a few times. Usually, the work of welcoming guests was done by his secretary Zhang Fang. But tonight's matter was of great importance. Apart from the others, even Zhang Fang could not participate. He walked to the study room on the inner side of the hall, knocked on the door gently, and pushed it open.
Xu Yao was watching the TV happily when a figure suddenly blocked her view. She immediately became furious and her beautiful eyes glared as if she was about to lose her temper. When she saw the person's face clearly, she opened her mouth slightly, her eyes were dull, and she pointed at Wen Liang without saying a word. She didn't even notice a trace of saliva flowing from the corner of her mouth.
"Well, it's very eye-opening! Classmate Xu Yao, I didn't expect you to have such a homely side, hahaha." Whether it's the girl in white when they first met, or her refreshing and pleasant appearance on weekdays, Xu Yao gives everyone the impression of a princess who is high above everyone else. Few people would have thought that she also has such a side of a girl next door.
Only then did Xu Yao realize that she was barefoot, her hair was messy, and her pink pajamas were a little wrinkled from sitting cross-legged. She didn't even bother to ask Wen Liang why he was here, but pointed behind him and said, "Oh, there's a panda!" Then she turned around and ran, skipping up to the second floor without even putting on her slippers.
Wen Liang stared at all this in amazement, saying that he couldn't understand it. They were all so familiar with each other, and she looked so good just now, so why did she have to react so strongly? The uncle didn't think about it. The words he just said combined with the obscene smile on his face would scare any girl away.
Zuo Yuxi, who had been standing at the door, couldn't stop laughing. She came over and sat on the sofa, holding her stomach. She finally calmed down. But when she saw Wen Liang's innocent and silly look, she couldn't help laughing again and scolded him, "Stop playing tricks. What will happen if Secretary Xu sees us?"
Being here, Zuo Yuxi couldn't call Xu Fuyan by his name directly. Fortunately, the nanny had left just now, otherwise she would have thought something had happened.
Wen Liang smiled bitterly and shook his head, then sat down on the sofa on the other side. He saw a pair of cute pink cotton slippers with two little pandas printed on them placed next to the marble low table. Thinking of the words he had just shouted when he was lying to himself, Wen Liang suddenly realized that this girl was obsessed with pandas.
"Is this how you usually get along?" For some reason, Zuo Yuxi seemed to be more interested in Xu Yao than Xu Fuyan. Wen Liang rolled his eyes and said something else: "Don't be nervous later, talk to Secretary Xu openly. There are many things that I can't say to my father, just say it yourself, even if you are not polite, he can't do anything. After all, in the current situation, we are here to help..."
Zuo Yuxi was about to speak when Wen Huaiming came over and whispered, "Secretary Xu asked you to come over here." After that, he winked at Wen Liang, asking him to be patient.
Wen Liang nodded knowingly, and seeing Zuo Yuxi staring at him, he smiled and said, "Go!"
Zuo Yuxi then stood up and walked in first. Wen Huaiming was frightened by this, frowning and looking at Wen Liang, thinking that he must know their relationship when he goes home at night. Why does Zuo Yuxi seem to obey Wen Liang's words? It's so strange!
When the two of them came in, Wen Liang sat on the sofa with his eyes closed, motionless.
After Xu Yao ran into the bedroom, she threw herself on the bed, pulled the quilt over her head, and pounded her fists: "I'm being laughed at, I'm being laughed at, it's so embarrassing, 555, it's so embarrassing..."
After venting for a while, Xu Yao finally remembered why Wen Liang came to her house. The last time her father asked about him, he didn't seem to like him. What happened this time
She thought about it while holding the quilt, and decided to go out and take a look. After washing up, she found the most beautiful white cotton dress in the closet. This was specially bought when she attended her brother's wedding in Guanshan last time. Today, she must let the brat open his eyes!
As if sensing something, Wen Liang opened his eyes and looked up. A girl in white appeared at the stairs on the second floor. She slowly walked down the stairs with her slender fingers. Her soft long hair was draped behind her. Her crystal eyes were as clear as water. Her flawless white skin reflected charming light under the light. Her graceful and slender figure and slender waist all showed the Creator's greatest favoritism.
Wen Liang stood up, smiled and bowed slightly: "Welcome, Her Majesty the Queen!"
Xu Yao had a faint look of disdain on her face as she had when they first met, and she raised her head proudly: "Don't move, you stinky boy!" (To be continued)
