"Well..." Liu Xun frowned when he heard this question, but he still said truthfully: "Actually, I met Qingcheng completely by accident, because she looks... exactly like a friend of mine!"
Liu Xun did not tell Gu about the Cheng Guoli incident. Firstly, he was afraid that Gu's father and mother would worry, and secondly, he himself did not want to mention the matter.
At this point, Father and Mother Gu were also silent. Seeing this, Liu Xun said, "But uncle and aunt, don't worry, Qingcheng is not her replacement, because she and Qingcheng are two different people."
Isn't it a substitute for Situ Ying? Although Liu Xun said this, he didn't know in his heart, if it wasn't a substitute for Situ Ying, would he be so worried about Gu Qingcheng? Liu Xun didn't think...
But he won't tell the truth. Sometimes lies can make people feel more at ease, but if the truth is told, it will hurt many people!
"Um... you haven't lived together yet, right?" At this moment, Gu's mother suddenly asked this question. After the words fell, Liu Xun and Gu Qingcheng were also stunned for a moment. Gu's mother also said immediately: "I mean, you haven't developed that kind of relationship yet, right?"
"... "Liu Xun was speechless, because he didn't know Father and Mother Gu. If he told the truth, he was afraid that something unexpected would happen! And if he lied, he was afraid that Gu Qingcheng would think that he was afraid to take responsibility, so Liu Xun was very conflicted.
Just when he didn't know how to answer, Gu Qingcheng said, "Mom and Dad, what are you thinking? We haven't developed to that level yet."
"Yes." Although Liu Xun didn't know why Gu Qingcheng denied it, he guessed that it might be because Gu's father and mother were too conservative, so he answered according to Gu Qingcheng's opinion.
"Oh, okay, that's good." Gu's father nodded, his face full of satisfaction. Seeing this, Liu Xun also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that Gu Qingcheng's parents are indeed conservative people.
Liu Xun felt very conflicted during the entire dinner, because Father and Mother Gu kept asking him a question, and Liu Xun had to respond calmly in a hurry.
After dinner, Liu Xun drank some tea and then said, "It's getting late, uncle and aunt, I'll go back first and come visit you two when I have time."
"Play for a while longer. If you really can't make it, stay here." Father Gu said politely to Liu Xun. Gu Qingcheng smiled helplessly. Liu Xun also refused: "No, I have something else to do. I won't disturb my uncle and aunt."
After a few more polite words, Liu Xun also went downstairs. Gu Qingcheng sent Liu Xun downstairs and said, "I'm sorry, my parents are like this. It's not that they are conservative, but they love me too much and are afraid that I will be wronged, so..."
"I know, it's okay." Liu Xun put his hand on Gu Qingcheng's shoulder, then kissed her thin lips, and then said: "I'm leaving first. There may be a lot of things that need to be dealt with during this period. Let's contact by phone first. When you return to school after the New Year, you can stay at my place."
"Well..." Gu Qingcheng blushed when she heard this. Liu Xun shrugged and sighed, "Okay, I'm leaving!"
After saying goodbye to Gu Qingcheng, Liu Xun started the car and rushed home. It was already night, and it was supposed to be a peaceful night, but a phone call broke the peace.
The call was from Zhang Dabiao, with anger and helplessness in his voice, "Brother, what a weird employee you found for me, I'm really at a loss! Come over and take a look, if it weren't for you, everyone would want to kill her!"
"Employee?" Liu Xun was puzzled when he heard Zhang Dabiao's words, and then he remembered Liu Haiyan's matter and said, "Oh, I remember now. What's wrong? What happened?"
"I'm speechless. This person has such a straightforward temper that she has offended all of our 'friends' in the Municipal Bureau. Brother, if it weren't for you, Liu Xun, this woman wouldn't have survived until tomorrow morning! Everyone is not doing anything to her for your sake, but if she continues like this, it's not a solution!" Zhang Dabiao spoke as if he was complaining. After listening to him, Liu Xun roughly guessed what was going on.
Isn't it the New Year soon? All the major entertainment venues and industries in S City must bribe the Municipal Bureau. You know, this is a good thing that only happens once a year! Whether it is grassroots employees or cadres, no one wants to lose this benefit.
But what? Wasn't Liu Haiyan assigned to the Municipal Bureau by Liu Xun? Maybe this woman knew about this, so she was very dissatisfied! You can guess what happened next with your toes.
"This silly woman..." Liu Xun shook his head and smiled, then he increased the speed of the car and drove towards the Municipal Bureau.
"But he's silly in a cute way." Liu Xun considered the overall situation, so he turned a blind eye to the corrupt officials in the Municipal Bureau and S City, but the premise was that he couldn't go too far and had to do practical things for the citizens of S City.
Although these officials accept bribes, at least they do something practical for the citizens! Everyone loves money, and everyone is the same, so sometimes just getting by is also a solution. After all, everyone needs to make a living, as long as it does not violate human morality.
The current situation in society is that nine out of ten officials are corrupt, and the remaining one is still learning! In today's society, what is a good official? It's okay to be corrupt, but you have to do practical things for the people! It's okay to accept bribes, but you can't have no bottom line! This is a good official! But even so, there are still few officials who can do it.
Compared to these, don't the Chinese high-level officials know? I'm afraid no one knows their officials better than them, but the world is going downhill, and humanity is like this. Under the current situation of peace and prosperity, they also turn a blind eye.
Even so, there are still poor areas and beggars, but at least there is no longer the bad habit of "rich people feasting and drinking, while people freeze to death on the streets!" in the old society! This is the progress of human nature and the development of humanity.
Although there are still people who starve to death, that is just the result of their not being able to earn their own living! Although there are still people who beg, that is just the result of their giving up on themselves!
If there are still people who are dissatisfied with the current situation, Liu Xun can only shake his head helplessly, because these people have no idea how chaotic South Africa is. It is the true portrayal of China's old society and it is a purgatory on earth with constant war!
Two hours later, Liu Xun parked his car in front of the Municipal Bureau. He opened the door and walked towards the Municipal Bureau.
Walking into the Municipal Bureau, there was a dense crowd of people standing in front of him, almost filling up the entire room. Liu Xun coughed lightly and said with a smile: "What's going on? If I remember correctly, it shouldn't be the New Year yet? Why is it so lively?"
"Brother Xun." When the police in the room saw Liu Xun coming, they all made way for him and bowed and shouted to Liu Xun.
Liu Xun nodded, then glanced at Liu Haiyan who was sitting beside him with a gloomy face, then looked at Zhang Dabiao who looked unhappy, and said: "What's wrong, Brother Zhang? Is it such a small matter?"
Zhang Dabiao sighed, then walked up to Liu Xun and whispered, "Brother, you are here. Come with me quickly. Friends from all walks of life are waiting for you there. You need to give everyone an explanation."
"Oh, let's go." Liu Xun shrugged and followed Zhang Dabiao calmly towards a room in front.
Entering the room, this is the room where the Municipal Bureau receives provincial leaders, but it is also used to entertain various bigwigs from City S. There is a table inside with dishes on the table. They are eating. Apparently, because of this incident, they didn't even have time to eat.
"Mr. Liu! Brother Xun!" Liu Xun entered the room and everyone stood up. Those who were in the business world called him Mr. Liu, while those who were in entertainment venues and other industries called him Brother Xun.
"Everyone sit down and continue eating!" Liu Xun sat in an empty seat nearby, not saying a word, just looking at them.
As soon as Liu Xun arrived, they lost their mood to eat, so they said, "Brother Xun, although we know that in S City, no one dares to say anything against you! But you must give us an explanation for this matter!"
"Yes, Mr. Liu, that girl is really too much! Isn't the New Year coming soon? We originally wanted to "support" the Municipal Bureau, but that girl secretly handed over our "support" information to the mayor! In fact, this has a smaller impact on us, but it has a great impact on the Municipal Bureau! Fortunately, the mayor is on the same boat with us, but what if she hands it over to the provincial government? What will be the outcome? Not only will we be closed down, but even Director Zhang will not be able to escape responsibility!"
"That's right. We originally wanted to deal with this girl secretly. After all, such a woman can be made to disappear by just one or two people! But Director Zhang said that she has a relationship with you, and the relationship is very ambiguous! So we have no choice but to come to you, Brother Xun, to ask for an explanation."
"Brother Xun, I have the same idea. You said that except for drugs, anything can be done! Prostitution should not force good women into prostitution, and gambling should not involve human lives! We all agree with these. Even if anyone dares to cross the line, you, Brother Xun, will not have to do anything. The brothers will send him to the King of Hell! But Cheng Yaojin suddenly appeared halfway, which not only cut off everyone's financial resources, but also wanted to force everyone to death!"
"Yes, Brother Xun, you should give us an explanation! Otherwise..."
Liu Xun was silent while listening to their words. After a while, when they finished speaking, Liu Xun stood up, bowed to everyone present, and then said solemnly: "Everyone, this matter was Liu Xun's fault, and now I apologize to everyone."
"Xun... Brother Xun, there's no need for that..." Seeing Liu Xun bowing to them, they couldn't get used to it for a moment and were a little flattered.
"Wrong is wrong. Although I didn't do it, it was caused by me!" Liu Xun took a deep breath and said with a smile.
At this point, he walked to the table, picked up a bottle of Moutai, and then poured a glass himself. He held the glass and walked around to the crowd, and continued: "If you trust me, leave this matter to me. I will give you an explanation and guarantee that similar things will not happen again in the future! What do you think?" (To be continued)
