Chapter 25 reminded

Xia Jinxian to take off her shoes, enter the door with a bit of drunkenness, slumped down on the sofa and asked, "Aren't you going to bed so late?"

The little one stood up obediently and said, "I want to wait for dad today."

Xia Jinxian He touched the little one's head and asked, "Do you miss daddy?"

The little one nodded heavily.

Tan Xia said, "It's okay. Going to bed late once or twice once in a while can promote children's brain development."

What nonsense is this? Xia Jinxian looked at Tan Xia speechlessly.

The little one said happily, "This will make the baby smarter, right?"

Tan Xia nodded seriously, "And he won't grow taller."

The little one immediately said with a sad face, "The baby needs to grow taller. He needs to grow very tall. With The roof is as high."

Tan Xia looked at her sideways and asked, "Then you're not sleeping yet?"

What about Tan Xia's fallacy just now?

Xia Jinxian couldn't help laughing and said to the little one, "Your father will probably be here for a while, so you should go to bed first."

The little one hummed, and Tan Xia stuffed a little rabbit into her and said, "Your father bought this for you. Yes, let me do it for now."

Although the little boy was reluctant, he still carried the rabbit and entered Tan Xia's room. Tan Xia spread her hands and said, "I want to ask Teacher Ling for childcare fees." 

You will be Mrs. Ling from now on." 

Xia Jinxian threw a pillow and said, "Don't talk nonsense, I see there is no generation gap between you and the little one." 

"Isn't that good? It proves that I am only three years old." 

Xia Jinxian corrected, "It's childish." 

The two of them were joking when Xia Jinxian received a friend request from someone. 

When she saw that profile picture, she felt a little dazed. 

Xu Yanqing's WeChat name is He Qing, which is his pen name. Xia Jinxian knew it was him immediately because his profile picture was a sunset photo of Leifeng in the West Lake. 

Junyue by the West Lake, his and her first time. 

Deep pleasure and unforgettable tenderness. 

They gave each other unreserved love, and they both stayed in that summer. 

She had no way of verifying whether this photo was the one they took in Hangzhou ten years ago. 

But when I see this portrait, I can’t help but think of the past. 

She held the phone and hesitated for a long time. Tan Xia tied her hair with a hair tie and came out after washing her face. 

She asked her, "Sister Xiaoxian, why are you so dazed? " 

Although I can't be a couple, after all, there may be intersections at work, so adding a WeChat account is okay, right? 

It took so long to mentally prepare to add WeChat for the first time, so Xia Jinxian solemnly accepted it. 

She waited for Xu Yanqing to talk to her, and Xu Yanqing also held her mobile phone and thought for a long time, and finally sent a voice message: Xiaoxia, help me ask Chairman Zhou tomorrow when he has time, and I will arrange to have a meal together. 

Xia Jinxian didn't listen to this voice message for a long time. After five minutes, she clicked it. When she heard him calling her Xiaoxia, Xia Jinxian burst into tears. 

She curled up her knees in grievance, hugged her knees, buried her head and murmured alone: ​​"Aqing, you used to call me Xiaoxian..." 

Ling Tanqing happened to come back, opened the door with the key, and came in. Xia Jinxian was seen burying her head and curling up, not knowing what she was doing. 

He put down the key and took off his shoes, and asked carefully, "Xiaoxian, what's wrong with you?" 

The words Xiaoxian came out of Ling Tanqing's mouth, how ironic. 

Xia Jinxian pursed her lips and finally cried out in grievance. 

Ling Tanqing came over quickly, half-knelt in front of her, held up her cheek with his big hands and asked, "What's wrong? What happened to you? What wronged you? Tell me." 

Xia Jinxian shook her head and pushed away his hand holding her cheek. , said to him, "It's nothing, I just drank too much and wanted to vent." 

Ling Tanqing was still worried and asked, "Is everything really okay? I'll make you a cup of honey water to relieve the hangover, okay?" 

Xia Jinxian ordered Nodding, the phone was put aside. 

Seeing that Xia Jinxian had not replied, Xu Yanqing sent a voice request. 

Xia Jinxian looked at Xu Yanqing's name she had just noted for a long time. Ling Tanqing also saw it and asked, "District Chief Xu's voice, do you want to answer?" 

Xia Jinxian didn't want to go through the details, so she pressed connect. 

At this time, the little boy heard the sound of his father coming back and ran out barefoot and said, "Dad, you are back~" 

Before Xia Jinxian could say "hello", Xu Yanqing was already woken up by the cold wind of the September night. 

He said to her in a low and pleasant voice, "Xiao Xia, excuse me, help me make an appointment with Chairman Zhou. Please ask him to pick time in the evenings of these two weeks." 

Xia Jinxian's voice was still nasal, and she said truthfully, "District Chief Xu "I'll ask Secretary-General Zhu to contact you. Chairman Zhou is usually accompanied by our Section Chief Fu Zibo and Secretary-General Zhu Wenhao. I mainly talk to Chairman Lu on weekdays. I'm afraid it's inconvenient." 

Xu Yanqing saw how cleanly she distanced herself from him. relationship, so as she wished, she stopped disturbing her and said hello. 

After hanging up the phone, Xia Jinxian sat on the sofa and watched Ling Tanqing holding the little one high, but she still had trouble concentrating. 

Xia Jinxian received another message on WeChat, hoping it would be Xu Yanqing saying something to her again, so she quickly opened it and saw that it was Zhou Chao. 

Zhou Chao: Take a rest early and meet again when we have a chance. 

Xia Jinxian has no interest in hugging thighs. 

Although it was Wu Tingtao's good intentions, she had already seen through the official career and did not pursue it. 

After all, there is no background blessing, only personal efforts, and she is a woman, so getting promoted is simply a metaphysics. 

She replied with a few words of thanks and compliments, then threw the phone away. 

Ling Tanqing handed her lemonade. Xia Jinxian knew what he meant, so she didn't refuse. She drank the water, patted her face, and refused Ling Tanqing's further exploration and concern. She stood up and stretched her body and said, "It's really tiring to socialize. "Please tell Teacher Wu to stop caring about me so much. I don't deserve it." 

Ling Tanqing said, "If you don't deserve it, who will? When the teacher called me to ask me about business, he even said a few words of concern to you. I have time." You should also send more messages to the teacher. At this age, the teacher is most afraid of loneliness." 

Xia Jinxian smiled and shook her head, "Where are his two sons?" 

Ling Tanqing hugged the little one and said, "My son is different, not caring, right. To him, you are just like his daughter." 

Xia Jinxian thought of her mother. If Wu Tingtao had married his mother, would he still miss the colorful world outside? 

Sometimes it’s better not to explore a man’s nature. 

She said, "It's just that we have some affinity."
Ling Tanqing said, "The teacher has empathy for you. He has worked hard all his life. When a man reaches this position, he cannot accept the loneliness of the end of prosperity." Xia Jinxian

did not answer, but she also knew that another reason was that Wu Tingtao's The two sons have been fighting for property.

When he was alive, his son was thinking about his legacy, which really chilled Wu Tingtao.

But human nature is like this. Even if his son doesn't care about huge wealth, others will care about it and urge his two sons to fight for it.

In addition, the previous three marriages were not satisfactory, so he missed his mother.

That’s the truth: what you can’t get is the best.

Xia Jinxian thought that she probably had the same reason for Xu Yanqing, right?

Thinking of Xu Yanqing, I pulled up his profile picture on my phone and clicked on my circle of friends, which was all blank.

Ling Tanqing took the little one with her and was about to say goodbye and go back upstairs.

Xia Jinxian was a little too drunk, but her brain was clearer. She sent Ling Tanqing away and prepared to wash up.

Zhou Chao probably drank too much, so he suddenly replied with one word: OK.

Xia Jinxian was speechless and thought, "What's so good about it?" She's not having a good day at all.

Xu Yanqing's invitation to Zhou Zheng for dinner was arranged quite quickly.

The next week, Zhou Zheng's other inspection route was the construction of the trade zone, and the deputy district chief accompanying him was Xu Yanqing.

There are more committee members participating in this route. Many committee members from the economic sector have not yet met the new deputy district chief, so registration is very enthusiastic.

Considering that the day's itinerary is still relatively tight, and the committee members want to inspect and learn more, we set off at 8 a.m., arranged a working lunch at noon, and did not start the discussion until 3 p.m., and it is estimated that it will end at more than 5 p.m.

Xia Jinxian knew that some committees asked Zhou Zheng to arrange a matchup with Xu Yanqing. Sure enough, two days in advance, Zhou Zheng asked Secretary-General Zhu to notify Fu Zibo to attend the dinner.

Fu Zibo was also asked to go with him for inspection that day.

Fu Zibo was a very smart person, and Xia Jinxian did all the work, but the work that showed his face in front of the leaders was all his, which made it seem like he was working hard with two leaders.

Zhu Jiajia couldn't stand his appearance, and said to Xia Jinxian, "You are the same, don't ask for progress, show your face in front of Chairman Zhou more often, what a good opportunity."

Xia Jinxian knew better, it was probably Zhou Chao She specifically asked Zhou Zheng to arrange for him to accompany her, but Xu Yanqing didn't mention anything to her, so Fu Zibo was asked to come back and follow her during this inspection route.

"After all, he is a loyal dog." Xia Jinxian said this silently.

Zhu Jiajia burst out laughing and said, "Don't tell me, he looks a lot like a Corgi, especially the way he smiles."

Xia Jinxian imagined Fu Zibo's smiling face every time he faced the leader, and his nodding and bowing expression. appropriate.

She nodded seriously and said, "Image! I just need to stick out my tongue."

Although she was picked off, Xia Jinxian didn't ask for promotion in the first place, and was just happy to avoid Xu Yanqing to avoid the awkward encounter between the two.

In fact, the matter of love is really puzzling.

When you are in love, you can enter the soul of the other person, but after breaking up, you can't wait to become a ginseng and never see each other again.

On the day of the inspection, it happened that the Municipal Investment Committee also came to the district for investigation on the same day, and the team was led by their deputy director.

Xu Yanqing asked his secretary Lu Wenjing to contact the CPPCC Office and told them that there was a conflict in the morning and they could not be there. He was very sorry.

Lu Wenjing feels better about himself since he followed Xu Yanqing, but unfortunately his work ability cannot keep up.

In addition, Xu Yanqing was very busy when he first took office, and there was no time to teach him one by one about many things. In just over two months, Lu Wenjing had already messed up several things.

This time, he acted on his own initiative, thinking that the CPPCC inspection would last only half a day, and since there was a conflict, he would naturally not go.

So I contacted Fu Zibo directly and told him that the leader had new arrangements and he had to receive the city, so he couldn't go for the inspection.

The last time Zhou Zheng took the initiative to invite Xu Yanqing, he didn't appreciate it, which already made Zhou Zheng a little unhappy.

When I heard this this time, I didn't even come to inspect, and still expected Xu Yanqing to organize the game at night? Maybe I would have to accompany the city leaders, but I wouldn't bother to get together with him, an old CPPCC comrade who is waiting to retire.

Since Xu Yanqing had set up the game himself, but he was about to let him go, which made Zhou Zheng even more angry.

When Zhou Zheng walked into the office, his whole face was stern. Fu Zibo followed behind and said, "Maybe there is indeed something."

Zhou Zheng said, "What is it? Is it someone from the capital, or is it to meet a foreign head of state?"

This makes sense. Something serious.

Everyone in the office looked at each other, not knowing what was going on, and they were all silent.

Secretary-General Zhu followed in. After understanding the situation, he came out with Fu Zibo. The two looked at each other.

Secretary-General Zhu said, "This is a bit much. Have you asked District Chief Xu's secretary? What is the reason?"

Fu Zibo said, "It means that District Chief Xu has something to do and will not go."

The inspection is tomorrow, and this It was later said that District Chief Xu would not attend and the time could not be adjusted temporarily.

Secretary-General Zhu said, "This is the first inspection since District Chief Xu came. The committee members are very enthusiastic. Isn't that good? How about I go and communicate with the district office."

Fu Zibo said, "I asked Xiao Lu "It was District Chief Xu who said he would not attend tomorrow."

Secretary-General Zhu was a little unhappy now, "No wonder Chairman Zhou is unhappy. This is too casual. District Chief Xu asked a secretary to come." "Notify us, what do you mean?"

Xia Jinxian heard that it was because Xu Yanqing was not here temporarily, so Zhou Zheng was angry.

After all, he was her ex-boyfriend, the only one she couldn't let go of, and Xia Jinxian didn't want Xu Yanqing to have a tense relationship with Zhou Zheng.

She considered her words, clicked on Xu Yanqing's profile picture on WeChat, and sent a message asking: District Chief Xu, Chairman Zhou asked me to confirm with you, has tomorrow's inspection been cancelled?

Xu Yanqing was holding an executive meeting of the district government. He put his cell phone on silent mode and put it aside, and the messages did not stop.

This topic is during the review of the mid-term report of the five-year plan.

District Chief Xie asked the team members to take turns to say a few words. Xu Yanliang was an expert in this field. He was originally engaged in macro planning and had participated in drafting the national development plan. He only had to take a basic look at the overall plan of the district to know that it was What direction and situation.

But after all, he is new and has already completed half of the five-year plan. It is hard to say much, and he is not sure what District Chief Xie means.

So this is just a macro representation. The completion of basic indicators is acceptable, but for the parts that have not reached the target, we need to consider increasing financial support in the second half of the process, or adjusting work measures, or reducing the number of indicators. All need to be considered on a case-by-case basis. Follow legal procedures and submit to the National People's Congress for approval.

Zhou Chao directly pointed out that the overall fiscal revenue and various aspects of the economy were lower than planned expectations. Considering the heavy downward pressure on the economy, it was necessary to speed up the reduction of indicators, investment promotion, and industrial development.

This kind of mid-term report is just a formality. Most leaders only focus on the completion of their areas of responsibility and special plans. Zhou Chao reaching out to Xu Yanqing made others feel a little strange.
