Chapter 125: Betrayal of old friend

Xia Jinxian confirmed the time with Hu Yuan, and made arrangements with Luo Yue.

When the agreed date arrived, he asked the driver to take him and Hu Yuan to the appointment.

Xu Yanqing arrived early and was waiting for Hu Yuan.

He has always been very considerate in this regard. He is also an office director and pays great attention to these etiquette matters.

Hu Yuan has always had a good relationship with Xu Yanqing in private, and Xia Jinxian is now his deputy director. He takes great care of the couple.

Hu Yuan exchanged greetings with the other branch manager, and a group of people arranged their seats. Xia Jinxian and Luo Yue sat on the side, facing Xu Yanqing.

Bao Hao was also called today to accompany him at the last position. When he first arrived, he learned that Xia Jinxian was now in a respected position and was considered a celebrity in the district.

He wanted to add a WeChat message, but was avoided by Xia Jinxian with a few words.

At the dinner, the branch manager kept toasting, but the content of everyone's chat was neither salty nor light. The branch manager was obviously more anxious to get to the point, but Hu Yuan and Xu Yanqing didn't interact with each other, and Ge Wen only sat on the side, Everyone was talking about important political and economic matters, but no one picked up on his words.

In fact, such important things are often not said in front of everyone at the dinner party. They are usually said at the second table, or in a bar, or in a nightclub.

Bao Hao was called by their branch manager to come across to toast him. When the toast came to Xu Yanqing, Xu Yanqing caught Luo Yue's eyes and knew that this was the person.

He had a wretched and greasy temperament, and he had the intention to disgust people back then.

Xu Yanqing looked as usual, wiped his mouth, stood up, held up the cup, and was half a head taller than Bao Hao.

He glanced at Xia Jinxian. Xia Jinxian also felt embarrassed and drank tea silently to cover it up.

Xia Jinxian secretly said to Luo Yue in private, "Well, Luo Yue, now that you have hugged Secretary Xu's lap, you betrayed your old friend. You are not kind."

Luo Yue pretended to be stupid and said, "I don't even know what happened."

Xia Jinxian glared at him and pretended to be angry.

The loyal and upright Secretary Luo could only raise his glass and apologize to Director Xia with a smile.

Xu Yanqing asked Bao Hao a few words and let him go.

Bao Hao paid homage to Xia Jinxian until the end, and found it difficult to speak.

His ex-wife is doing better than him now. At that time, he thought she would be a useless clerk in the Archives Bureau for the rest of her life. Who would have thought that now she is the person next to the big boss, and he still has to beg her with a cup. For a man, it is still... What could hurt more self-esteem than this?

At the end of the dinner, the branch manager said, "Don't you know that the two leaders have been inside our branch building? The scenery is quite good at night, and the view is good. Do you want to go there and have a look?"

Apparently he started talking about personal matters. At the end of the conversation, Xu Yanqing said, "No, I have to go home to be with my wife."

Hu Yuan smiled and said, "You."

The two of them were paired up, and the other branch manager couldn't get a word in at all.

It's so embarrassing that I'm afraid I've already scolded my mother in my heart, but I still have to put on a smile on my face. After all, Xin District is a big banker, and these bank presidents, even if they usually have the attitude of making everything up and down in front of the big bosses, will Lower your head and bend your waist.

It is one face to small customers, and another face to big customers.

The appearance of sentient beings in this floating world is really realistic and cruel.

Xia Jinxian and Luo Yue stayed behind. Bao Hao wanted to come over and add WeChat, but was stopped by Luo Yue. Luo Yue pulled him to say something.

Before a group of people went downstairs, the branch president came over with a bag. Hu Yuan and Xu Yanqing looked at each other. They were familiar with each other and handed two copies to Xia Jinxian and Luo Yue, as well as Ge Wen.

After going downstairs, Xia Jinxian put the things in the back seat of Hu Yuan's car and asked the driver to take Hu Yuan away first.

The branch manager asked Xia Jinxian, "Do you need our little Bao to arrange to send Director Xia off?"

Before Xia Jinxian could answer, Xu Yanqing took her hand and said to him, "No trouble, I'll go home with my wife."

Luo Yue had already walked over and unlocked the car for Xu Yanqing, and the driver had also arrived.

Bao Hao's face looked extremely ugly now. He never imagined that a woman like Xia Jinxian, who was a loser in his eyes, would end up marrying the deputy secretary of the district committee? ? ?

Xia Jinxian was not unhappy in her heart, but she had no idea about this person. If they hadn't met by chance, they probably wouldn't have crossed paths in this life.

Xu Yanqing helped Xia Jinxian get into the car. Luo Yue sat in the passenger seat and closed the door. Xu Yanqing kissed Xia Jinxian and said, "You used to have really bad eyesight. You can make do with this. Who do you think I am?"

Xia Jinxian pouted and said, "I have good taste, and I will treat you as my sweetheart."

These love words were so sincere that Luo Yue, who was sitting in the passenger seat, was used to it.

The driver looked at Luo Yue, who had a serious look on his face, and respected him for being a tolerant person.

Xia Jinxian opened the bag given by the bank. Inside was a commemorative gold bar. It was said to be a commemorative gold bar, but it was pure gold. One bar weighed 10 grams, and there were five bars in a box. No wonder it was quite heavy.

Calculated according to the market price, the price of gold is more than 300 yuan, which is nearly 15,000 yuan. Such a generous move is obviously to retain big customers.

"How much money do you deposit every year? He just takes action like this?" Xia Jinxian looked at the gift box and clicked her tongue.

Xu Yanqing gestured with a finger.

Xia Jinxian asked with lip language, "100 million?"

Xu Yanqing whispered in her ear, "Not much, only 100 billion."

What is "talent"? But yes, for a district like Xin District with a GDP of one trillion yuan, it is indeed a talent.

Xu Yanqing leaned back in his chair and said, "Now that I'm not in charge, what does it have to do with me?"

Xia Jinxian thought about it.

Xu Yanqing added, "They are all fiscal funds. We don't know what will happen next for Chinese capital. It is risky to put them here."

Xia Jinxian asked, "Will Li's matter still be involved?"

Xu Yanqing said, "Yes. "

With the driver here, there are some things that are hard to ask.

Xia Jinxian leaned on his shoulder, pointed at the bag and asked, "How do you get this?"

Xu Yanqing and Luo Yue said, "Send it to the Discipline Inspection Commission tomorrow and register it."

Xu Yanqing then said to Luo Yue, "Let's settle the money for today's banquet. For a moment, I thought it was my personal treat and asked them for an invoice."

Luo Yue said he understood.

Xu Yanqing left a credit card with Luo Yue, and he would help with many things. Luo Yue was very reliable, and Xu Yanqing felt at ease.

Xia Jinxian said, "Xiao Luo followed you and forgot about me. I'm sad."

Xu Yanqing pinched her face and said, "Xiao Luo thought you had a problem with that Mr. Bao, so he told me specifically. Who would have known that you two It's that kind of relationship."

Xia Jinxian knew she was wrong, so she simply kept silent. After a while, she argued, "Your mother introduced me."

Xu Yanqing was speechless after thinking about it.

Xia Jinxian asked, "Luo Yue, are you happy listening to the gossip in front?"

Unexpectedly, the couple's quarrel would affect the secretary, so Luo Yue pretended to be stupid and asked, "What?"

Xia Jinxian snorted and said, "I'm better at pretending to be stupid than Secretary Xu."

Xu Yanqing touched his face to hide the fact that he laughed out loud.

Because Xu Yanqing said to hand over the gold bars to the discipline inspection team, Xia Jinxian asked Hu Yuan the next day how to arrange the gift money.

How smart is Hu Yuan?

He directly gave her the car key and asked her to get it from the car and hand it over to the Discipline Inspection Commission.

Xia Jinxian also specifically asked Luo Yue if he had informed Finance Director Ge Wen. Luo Yue said that Ge Wen had already come to ask him this morning.

After all, this money is destined not to be invested in Chinese capital in the future. Taking this money will only cause trouble.

We are all smart people, and if we want to cooperate, we must cooperate with others, otherwise we will harm others.

The work of the National People's Congress is all routine matters. Although it is more troublesome than that of the CPPCC, it is much easier than that of district committees and regions.

There will be an inspection in mid-September, and Director Hu Yuan’s first stop will be the Bingang New Area Management Committee.

Cen Peiling had been waiting for a long time. When she saw Xia Jinxian accompanying Hu Yuan, she said to Hu Yuan, "Boss, Xiaoxia turned out to be my office director. She is very good. Now please take more care of her. In fact, I am very reluctant to part with her."

Hu Yuan nodded gently and said, "I finally asked Secretary He to come. Of course I have to take care of her. This shows that you have a good eye for talent and have cultivated it well."

Privately, Cen Peiling asked Xia Jinxian, "When will I meet Xu Jinxian? " The secretary is organizing a banquet? I heard that the new house is ready?"

Xia Jinxian said, "I haven't thought about it yet." Cen

Peiling grabbed her left hand, looked at the ring on her ring finger, and joked, "The ring is. I wear it every day."

Xia Jinxian smiled and couldn't hide her happiness.

Due to family reasons on both sides, Xia Jinxian has not yet decided on the format of the wedding.

But I got the certificate anyway, so I’m not in a hurry for a while.

Xu Yanqing thought it would be okay to wait until next spring. Spring is a good season for getting married.

The spring is warm, the flowers are blooming, the wind is sunny, and it is suitable for a wedding.

Holding a wedding is a troublesome thing, but as a necessary life ritual, both of them believe that it should still be done.

She wanted to have a family-style wedding, which didn't require a big scene and only required blessings from family and friends.

This idea was supported by Xu Yanqing.

Xu Yanqing said, "I can't make a big deal now, small-scale ones are good."

Both of them have held weddings before.

Xu Yanqing's wedding was even more grand.

Xia Jinxian asked Xu Yanqing, "Your wedding was very grand, wasn't it?"

Xu Yanqing remained silent.

After a while, he suddenly said, "Looking back on the mood at that time, I still feel sad. We held our own weddings, but our weddings did not include the people we love most in our lives. Isn't it ridiculous? I was Listening to the witness's speech, I thought, "Be respectful to each other as guests, be filial to your parents, be harmonious and happy. These beautiful words are not expected for that forced marriage. They can only be used to deceive everyone present." Right?"

Xia Jinxian closed her eyes and said, "I don't even dare to think about it,

especially when I met Bao Hao recently.

She turned over, sat in Xu Yanqing's arms and said, "Can you imagine? The first night he learned that it wasn't my first time, he slapped me. I looked at him at the time and thought how could I let that happen? A man touched me? What's the difference between that and rape? I was determined to get a divorce. Later, I don't know who he got the news from, and he came to me and told me that he was in the process of filing for divorce. , you let my child live? Ah Qing, I suddenly realized that I am quite vindictive. Although I don’t even remember what he looks like, I still remember these things. I hate him, and I hate myself even more for compromising. "

There was too much pain in the past," Xu Yanqing said, "I should have poured wine in his face that day."

Xia Jinxian leaned against him and said, "Seeing that he was living like that, I suddenly thanked myself for leaving him so early. Got married."

Xu Yanqing held her face and kissed her again and again. Apart from that, he didn't know what words to use to comfort her.
