Chapter 20 When we meet again,

good things don't go out and bad things spread thousands of miles. After the incident last night, Cyndi Liu knew that the news would spread quickly.

Others are here to see a good show. The only one who is sad is yourself. There is no other way. The only way to get through it is to be thick-skinned.

When she has a chance to stand up, who dares to look down on her?

She didn't expect Xia Jinxian to help, so she felt a little grateful.

Xia Jinxian said, "I'll first ask him if he will accept this kind of civil case. Anyway, they have many partners, so we can look at others."

Cyndi Liu said thank you.

At this time, Xia Jinxiu and others came back from dinner. Xia Jinxian greeted them and left.

In the afternoon, Xia Jinxian took advantage of the fact that there were only two people in the office, Cyndi Liu and Zhu Jiajia, and walked to Cyndi Liu's workstation, pushed Ling Tanqing's contact information to her, and said that she had been contacted and the other party agreed to help.

Cyndi Liu thanked her and said no more.

Zhu Jiajia saw it and sent a message asking: What are you doing for her? You are not the Virgin Mary.

Xia Jinxian raised her head and looked at Zhu Jiajia, who was sitting opposite her, and replied: Fool, everyone loves to add icing on the cake, but providing help in times of need only shows affection.

Zhu Jiajia: I don’t think Cyndi Liu will remember your affection.

Xia Jinxian smiled, and the two of them got up and went to the toilet together in tacit agreement.

Zhu Jiajia was still nagging her for helping Cyndi Liu, while Xia Jinxian looked at each pit one by one, fearing that the walls had ears.

After making sure that no one was in the bathroom, Xia Jinxian interrupted Zhu Jiajia's thoughts and said to her, "Think about it, her divorce lawsuit is a secret after all. I helped her contact a lawyer and find connections. The progress of the case is not all there. What is my control? If she wants to harm me in the future, she will have to consider whether I will reveal her scandal. If she has such a handle, she will owe me a favor. If she wants to stab me in the back in the future, it will be better. Be careful."

Zhu Jiajia suddenly realized and gave her a thumbs up.

After going to the restroom, Zhu Jiajia stood in the restroom and touched her cold neck before regaining consciousness.

She washed her hands and suddenly asked Xia Jinxian, "Xiaoxian, you won't use the same method you used to deal with Liu Cyndi to deal with me in the future, will you?"

Xia Jinxian asked, "Have you already planned to stab me in the back?"

Zhu Jiajia waved her hands quickly, "Of course not, I'm not that bad."

Xia Jinxian said, "That's it, you have nothing to do with me. I can't tell Secretary-General Zhu that you like to read BL novels, right?"

Zhu Jiajia laughed.

Nowadays, Xia Jinxian will go to Ling Tanqing for any legal matters.

She would rather owe him more favors so that he could repay her for his introduction, rather than owe him too much for the favors he had given unilaterally.

People are so strange. No matter how much you give to someone you like, it's never enough. If you like someone you love, no matter how much you give, it's never enough.

Ling Tanqing wasn't annoying, he was even considered good, but Xia Jinxian had experienced making do with each other and couldn't get over her past infatuation, so naturally she couldn't give him any extra emotion.

But she felt pity for the little one, but pity was not as good as mother's love.

She rubbed her forehead, and Ling Tanqing sent a message saying that she had contacted Cyndi Liu, and that Wu Tingtao had come to Shanghai and wanted to meet her.

Xia Jinxian wanted to refuse, but Wu Tingtao himself called her and asked her if she was free in the evening and asked her to accompany her to have a meal with some friends.

She was a little hesitant, but Wu Tingtao said, "You are at a good age. You should meet more friends, broaden your horizons, and accumulate more connections. It will be helpful in the future."

Wu Tingtao mentioned this, Xia Jinxian Of course it’s hard to refuse.

Mr. Wu unreservedly gave her his love and debt to his mother and did not allow her to refuse.

Nowadays, Xia Jinxian is no longer as timid and cowardly as she used to be. Anyway, it's just a meal together, and it's not like she wants to ask Wu Tingtao for any help or spend any money, so it really doesn't matter.

After get off work, she went back home first to change into a more decent dress.

The dresses in the closet are quite suitable for display.

Initially, all the clothes she wore for such official occasions were bought by Xu Yanqing.

He gave her a credit card back then and asked her not to dress in ashen clothes, like an old aunt.

At that time, she still loved to act coquettishly and hoped that he could say "I love you" ten thousand times in her ears every day.

So, she always asked him, "I will become an old aunt one day. Will you stop loving me then?"

Xu Yanqing would pinch her face every time and say, "I'm just saying that's silly." Words."

In the end, the foolish words came true.

She has become an old aunt, does he still love her?

Reminiscing about the past is meaningless.

Xia Jinxian changed her clothes, went to the styling studio to blow-dry her hair, and asked the makeup artist to help her style her hair and put on makeup.

Ling Tanqing drove to pick her up.

I saw her wearing a long skirt and her long hair tied up, standing under the first street lamp on the street.

She looks like a beautiful woman in a painting, raising her hands to comb her hair, and every movement of her eyebrows, like a fairy, gentle and charming.

Ling Tanqing's car pulled over, he got out of the car, opened the door for her, and smelled the delicious fragrance of her body.

Xia Jinxian saw that there were piles of materials on his back seat and knew that he was very busy, so she asked again, "Will Cyndi Liu's case increase your workload?"

Ling Tanqing said, "It's a small matter, her husband is also a lawyer, probably because of this she Asked you?"

She didn't have a good relationship with Cyndi Liu and said, "When she asked, I thought of you first, so I came to trouble you. There's no problem with your ability. Anyway, I have a close relationship with her. Come on, look."

Ling Tanqing looked at her while driving and said with a smile, "Xiaoxian, you underestimate me." While

the two were talking, Ling Tanqing's phone lit up, and the caller was Xu Yanqing.

Xia Jinxian looked at this name and was stunned.

Ling Tanqing pressed the speakerphone, and Xu Yanqing's cold voice came out through the car's stereo.

It was like an electric current coursed through Xia Jinxian's body, making her scalp numb and unable to move.

Xu Yanqing said, "Lawyer Ling, the materials have been sent. If you have any questions, please contact me in time."

Ling Tanqing said, "Okay, please excuse me, District Chief Xu. I'll see

you later." Xu Yanqing said, "See you soon. "

Hang up the phone neatly, but Xia Jinxian seemed to have been tapped.

It took her a long while before she asked, "Do you know Xu Yanqing?" Ling Tanqing knew that Xu Yanqing was appointed as the deputy district chief of the new district, so she said, "Yes, your new leader, the teacher has helped

us connect and will introduce you later."

, ex-boyfriend, still need an introduction?

She said, "No need, such a big leader is of no use to me."

But she didn't expect that she would meet Xu Yanqing again.

No wonder they met in Yangzhou. It seems that Xu Yanqing and Wu Tingtao have a good relationship.

Yes, the circle in the capital is actually only that big, and those are the people who come and go.

Ling Tanqing wanted to say something else, but finally stopped. The two chatted all the way, but Xia Jinxian didn't respond much. Instead, she looked at the scenery outside the car window in a daze from time to time.

What face should I use to face Xu Yanqing again? Xia Jinxian doesn't know.

Before I could think of a solution, I happened to meet Liu Wanjun in the hotel lobby.

There are no enemies like this in previous lives.

Liu Wanjun is now in the Municipal People's Congress. When Xia Jinxian was admitted to the Management Committee, Liu Wanjun was also her competitor.

At that time, Xu Yanqing was tutoring Xia Jinxian. She prepared for the exam carefully. After passing the exam, Liu Wanjun said that she was betraying her appearance and got some advice.

That’s all.

Liu Wanjun's father was the former deputy director of the Assets Committee of the new district. Together, they helped Xu Yanqing's mother, Li Yun, use all means to separate her and Xu Yanqing.

Because of this contribution, Liu Wanjun was successfully admitted to the Municipal Assets Committee. A few years later, because her husband Ren Bei followed the original District Mayor Jiang to the city, Liu Wanjun was transferred to the Municipal People's Congress.

For this kind of person, Xia Jinxian just wants to keep out of sight.

The Municipal People's Congress was probably hosting a reception here today. Liu Wanjun was standing in the lobby at the entrance, with her arms folded across her chest, and said to a young girl below, "I see you are busy in and out, like a headless fly. Stay calm.

" The words sounded so familiar. When she first joined the management committee, every time she participated in large-scale activities and was busy liaising and taking care of them, she would get this comment from Liu Wanjun.

It's no wonder she has such a nice name, but her character is really not that good.

This scene reappeared again after many years of absence. It seems that Liu Wanjun is quite consistent in her behavior.

Xia Jinxian walked beside Ling Tanqing, using Ling Tanqing's cover to quickly avoid Liu Wanjun.

From a distance, Wu Tingtao had already seen Xia Jinxian coming and wanted to greet her.

Ling Tanqing said, "The teacher has invited several leaders from your district for you today. They should all come, and the teacher will personally introduce you."

When Xia Jinxian heard this, she knew that Wu Tingtao had deliberately arranged this night, just to let She showed up more in front of district leaders to help pave the way for her career.

Who knew that such a coincidence would bring her the biggest hurdle in her life, the only love barrier that she could not overcome.

Fortunately, Xu Yanqing, who came next, was tripped by Liu Wanjun.

Xia Jinxian greeted Wu Tingtao, and Wu Tingtao said, "I've invited a few friends to come over today to have a small gathering, and I'll introduce you to them.

" "Pursue."

Wu Tingtao said, "Girls don't have to pursue a career, but if you get to know more people, some things are easy to accommodate and are harmless. Just follow them."

Wu Tingtao always spoke with the usual intolerance of successful people . A tone of rejection.

Xia Jinxian thought that she couldn't escape what was coming, so she could only take a deep breath and tell herself to be calm.

Guests came up to say hello to Wu Tingtao from time to time.

Xia Jinxian was with her, and others were actually quite curious about her identity. After all, Wu Tingtao had not had a female companion for many years since his last divorce.

Anyone who knows him well knows that even if there are a few female assistants, they only help with socializing on the scene and do not participate in such small-scale gatherings.

But seeing as the two people weren't standing close to each other and weren't making any intimate gestures, it was natural not to speculate too much.

Xia Jinxian stood next to Wu Tingtao, dignified and quiet. She lowered her head slightly, paying attention to everything about that person.

Xu Yanqing came in just behind her, but Liu Wanjun recognized Xu Yanqing and was pulling him to chat with him.

The conversation between Xu Yanqing and Liu Wanjun came clearly to Xia Jinxian's ears.

Liu Wanjun said, "Director Xu, I heard that you have returned to this city. I will pay more attention to you in the future."

Xu Yan said coldly and coldly, "I didn't recognize it just now. Xiao Liu, you have changed a lot in the past few years."

Liu Wanjun asked, "Yes "I think it's okay." Xu Yanqing 

said, "It is true that time is not forgiving." 

Liu Wanjun was obviously a little embarrassed and said, "It's true that we haven't seen you for many years. After all, you are in the capital, and we can't see you often." 

Xu Yanqing said, "That's right, my mother is in this city, so you can spend more time with your father . 
Go and visit her. After all, you have a good relationship." 

Liu Wanjun relied on Xu Yanqing's mother to rise to power. Xu Yanqing's words were really poisonous. 

Xia Jinxian couldn't help but laugh, and felt that No Mingtang and Liu Wanjun were annoying. They spread rumors that she had a miscarriage, causing them to be separated. 

But at this moment, the two of them were standing in the same lobby like strangers. Even if they heard him say these few words, the bad breath in their hearts was released, so what? 

If Liu Wanjun is thick-skinned, won’t he get over it? 

Xia Jinxian didn't want to see Liu Wanjun, so she talked with Wu Tingtao. 

By the time the director of the Justice Bureau finished speaking to Wu Tingtao, Liu Wanjun had already followed her leader and left. 

Wu Tingtao was waiting for Xu Yanqing to come over, and Xia Jinxian had no choice but to turn around and raise her head to face him. 

The two people stood less than ten meters away from each other and stopped. 

Wu Tingtao said enthusiastically, "Yan Qing, let me introduce you. This is Xia Jinxian, who also works for the CPPCC in your district. If you have the opportunity, please take care of her." 

Xu Yanqing looked at Xia Jinxian. 

Xia Jinxian also looked at him. 

Wrong time. 

It seems that there is such a moment in my memory, such a bright glass crystal lamp, the coffee shop of a five-star hotel. 

She smiled innocently and leaned against him. 

He celebrates her birthday. 

The same is HYATT. 

In the hall, the same fragrance smells. 

She applied cream on his face. 

And he held up his curly hair and rubbed it against her face. The two of them were entangled together, which was so sweet that it made them sick. 

In the blink of an eye, it happened eight or nine years ago. 

How could time go by so fast, passing by unconsciously? 

Xia Jinxian bowed slightly and called District Chief Xu. 

Xu Yanqing nodded and said hello. 

Wu Tingtao thought that Xia Jinxian was nervous, so he said, "Yan Qing has just returned from the capital. When he has the opportunity, he will report more on his work. He is an expert in policy. He used to be the director of the Policy Department of the Ministry of State Investment." 

Xia Jinxian thought, why should this man in front of him need to What about Wu Tingtao’s introduction? 

She had long been familiar with everything about him. 

Xu Yanqing's eyes fell on her hands, which were clean and smooth. 

Not wearing a ring. 

His focus was strange, he thought. 

Could it be that he was looking forward to seeing the set of wedding rings that he had given to her husband in her hands? 

How masochistic is this? Is he sick?

Following Wu Tingtao into the box, the two people deliberately kept their distance one after the other.

Who would have imagined that today Xu Yanqing is not the only one. Deputy District Mayor Zhou Chao and District Office Director Lei Mingjin are also there, as well as Wu Keju, whom we met last time from the Justice Bureau and the Lawyers Association. This battle , seems slightly larger.
