Half past four. Before getting off work, Dong Xuebin took a taxi back to the China Merchants Group compound.
On the way, calls from friends and colleagues continued to come in. Some were asking about the case, and more were concerned about the news in the county that Xie Huilan and Dong Xuebin were getting married. Liu from the Huitian Township Police Station When Dahai came up, he asked, "Is it true?" Su Jia, the host of the Xinhua News Agency cadre exchange in Beijing, also said with a smile, "Xuebin, you are very capable" and so on. Now I can hide it even if I want to. Unable to hold on any longer, Dong Xuebin had no choice but to confess honestly and affirm the authenticity of the news.
As soon as the taxi stopped, Dong Xuebin paid the bill and got out of the car and walked into the China Merchants Bureau.
At this moment, several people from the business department who had just returned from work in the courtyard looked at Dong Xuebin with surprise in their eyes.
"Director."
"Director Sword"
Apparently, everyone heard about it.
Dong Xuebin nodded with them and went directly upstairs to his office. As soon as he entered the room, before he could take out a cigarette and take a puff, the door was knocked open.
Dong Xuebin smiled and said: "I was just about to ask you to come, just in time.
Luo Haiting smiled bitterly and said: "Director, I heard..."
"No need to hear about it." Dong Xuebin smiled helplessly. He had said this so many times today, "It's true. Do you have any more questions? Let's ask together." Seeing her breathing silently, Dong Xuebin said : "No doubt, it's my turn? Haha, how is the arrangement of the investment meeting after I left in the morning? Where is the coordination among the departments? Just tell me, by the way, ask Section Chief Lin, Section Chief Jiang and others to come over too. "
Not long after, Luo Haiting went out and called several department leaders.
Lin Pingping and Jiang Hailiang were reporting on their work while holding back the shock in their hearts. They had not yet figured out what attitude Director Xiao Dong should show.
Magistrate Xie’s fiancé
They still can't accept it now!
Dong Xuebin didn't change at all, so he continued as he should. After understanding the progress of today's work, he gave a few more instructions to pay more attention. Then he asked them to get ready to get off work, and he also smoked a cigarette. After packing up my things, I went downstairs and drove into the old Santana under the gaze of many people. I walked out of the China Merchants Bureau compound and prepared to go home to have dinner with Huilan.
Ring ring ring, ring ring ring.
In the car, Luan Xiaoping's mobile phone number finally popped up.
As soon as he stepped on the brakes, Dong Xuebin parked the car on the service road, coughed, and carefully answered the phone, "Hey, Mom." "
"Damn kid! You want to scare mom to death!" Mom's voice was a little hoarse, as if she had just cried, "Mom thought you were going to be sentenced!"
Dong Xuebin smiled dryly and said: "It has nothing to do with me as to the sentence. I have also suffered an unreasonable disaster in this matter. I am still depressed." Mom, look at you, you make a fuss whenever something happens. How old are you to cry? "I It’s okay, we are upright and not afraid of slanted shadows, haha..."
There was a sniffling sound coming from the phone, but there was no word.
Dong Xuebin said hurriedly: "Mom, I made you worried. You blame me. Where are you?"
"In the countryside" with your grandma's house. "
"Don't be angry. How about I go over now and you beat me up?"
"You will be poor!"
Luan Xiaoping, like her son, has a serious heart, and Dong Xuebin is everything to her." When she heard at noon that her son had been arrested on suspicion of manslaughter, and there seemed to be evidence against him, Luan Xiaoping was so frightened that her face turned pale, and now she saw her son being arrested by the police The game was over, and her tone was relaxed. Luan Xiaoping breathed a sigh of relief and thought about another thing, "Xiao Bin, Mom wants to ask you."
"Hey" you said. "
"I heard from everyone that you are dating County Magistrate Xie?"
"Ahem" Well, there is such a thing. "
The other end of the phone paused for several seconds before Luan Xiaoping said angrily: "Why didn't you tell mom about such a big thing earlier? Even I hid it?"
"No, the main reason is that I don't have a single horoscope."
Upon hearing this, Luan Xiaoping became even more angry, "What do you mean by not saying anything? In order to testify for you, County Magistrate Xie said such things. You two also slept together and even decided to get married. Son Want to start a family... As a mother, I don’t know anything about it? Tell me what is this?”
"Oh, don't worry, don't worry, am I wrong?"
Sheng'er paused, then Luan Xiaoping said: "Does the county magistrate look down on us?"
Dong Xuebin hurriedly said: "Don't think blindly. How is it possible? It was related to my work before. There was some principle of avoiding suspicion or something, so I kept it a secret. Huilan is a very nice person, very gentle, and filial. She is not the kind of person who judges people by their appearance." It has nothing to do with the background of our family." At this moment, Dong Xuebin certainly had to say good things to Sister Xie, "Let me tell you, Huilan is a good person. You see. I definitely like it.”
"Okay, you can bring it back and show it to mom."
"Ah?" Dong Xuebin was dumbfounded, "Isn't it too early? It's not early. I mean she is a little busy at work, so I'm afraid... "
"Mom doesn't care, you have to take me back to your hometown tonight, and let's have a meal together."
"Tsk, she can't run away, why are you so anxious?"
"Why aren't you in a hurry? How old are you, and you have never brought a girlfriend to your house? Can Mom not be in a hurry? Anyway, Mom has to meet your partner today. Your aunt and second aunt are preparing dishes. By then, you guys Come over for dinner, mom has hung up the phone? "First of all, Luan Xiaoping is really worried about her son's life-long affairs, and secondly, she also thinks that her son can catch up with County Magistrate Xie... This matter is a bit unreliable, even if it is Dong Xue Bin's mother also believed that her son's conditions were too different from Xie Huilan's. This matter was a bit suspenseful, and Luan Xiaoping didn't want to be happy in vain.
Mom has already talked about this, what else can Dong Xuebin say
"Okay, then I...ask her."
"Well, mom is waiting for you."
Putting down the phone, Dong Xuebin had a headache. It wasn't that he didn't want to take Sister Xie back to meet relatives, but that he had never experienced such a scene of bringing a partner home and was a little embarrassed. Forget it. "Just take it with you, it's time to make my mother happy. Well, here, Dong Xuebin stepped on the accelerator and drove towards the county party committee compound, and made a phone call to Xie Huilan.
It's past five o'clock.
Downstairs of the county government office building.
As soon as Dong Xuebin's car arrived, several people in the compound saw him from the car window. They immediately started whispering in low voices and looked here frequently. At the same time, two people also looked at the door of the office building. After get off work, Deputy County Magistrate Cheng Keliang just walked out of the corridor. Cheng Keliang, dressed in a thin jacket, had an expressionless face and could not tell anything, but everyone in the compound knew that Cheng Keliang was definitely in a bad mood.
Others were watching the incident between Director Xiao Dong and County Magistrate Xie. Some found it surprising and some found it amusing, but Cheng Keliang had absolutely no such intention.
In the past two months, he has been pursuing Xie Huilan!
Are County Magistrate Xie and Director Xiao Dong having an affair? As soon as this happened, Cheng Keliang was the one who suffered the most. Not to mention the emotional blow, just in terms of face, he couldn't get off the stage!
Cheng Keliang didn't see Dong Xuebin, so he left the hospital and got in the car and left.
Dong Xuebin watched him leave, thinking that it was better now. Huilan had her own name, and she no longer had to worry about others trying to take advantage of Huilan. This was good news.
Suddenly, a charming figure walked out of the corridor wearing high heels.
Dong Xuebin immediately rolled down the window and waved to Xie Huilan.
Xie Huilan smiled, walked to a black Passat first, said hello to the driver Lao Xie, as if to let him go first, then walked over, opened the door and got into Dong Xuebin's Santana, but it is worth noting Yes, Xie Huilan took the passenger seat this time and did not take the leadership seat in the back. This scene was captured by many interested people. Dong Xuebin came to the county party committee compound to pick up County Magistrate Huilan from get off work. Magistrate Xie got into the passenger seat of Dong Xuebin. This was the first time that the two expressed their relationship in public. Now, many people who were still doubtful about the relationship between the two people now have no choice but to believe it. This is true love!
Fengli.
Xie Huilan scolded him, "What's wrong? I called you, Sister Xie, to get off work early? Is there something wrong?"
"That's right." Dong Xuebin said with a smile: "My mother, well, my mother and relatives at home insisted on seeing you and asked me to take you back. Do you want to see it?"
Xie Xilan looked at her watch and said with a smile: "Let's do it another day, okay?"
"Do you have anything else?"
"Mainly it's too late today."
Dong Xuebin's face was unhappy. He just wanted to save face. "The meeting in the city has been delayed. What else can you do? Later, it will be later. My mother has already spoken. I must see you today, and I agree." Well, if you don’t want to go, where are you going to put your face? I know you met my mother, uncle, aunt and others when we were in the hospital, but this time we are in an open relationship. , It’s different, you..."
Xie Huilan looked at her watch again, shook her head and smiled, "Okay, okay, let's drive."
Dong Xuebin said depressedly: "Why do you seem so reluctant? If you don't want to go, forget it, I'll go back by myself!"
Seeing that he was angry, Xie Huilan said funnyly: "When did your sister Xie say she didn't want to go?" She pointed to herself, "It's already past five o'clock now. Time is too tight. If you rush to the countryside, your sister Xie won't even have time to put on her clothes." Go home and change. When I go to your house for the first time, you have to prepare me to leave a good impression on your mother, right? "
"Hey, I told you earlier." Dong Xuebin said, "There's no need to change your clothes. You're in great shape. You're so beautiful."
"Haha, you don't care. OK, if you say this is fine, then that's fine. You, Sister Xie, don't want to change. Let's go to the mall to buy something first."
"No, I've bought everything."
"Can what you buy be the same as what I buy? Just go and drive."
Seeing that Xie Huilan was so interested, Dong Xuebin also smiled, "Okay, sit tight."
