Chapter 45 Are you willing to tell

the truth about the past? Xia Jinxian has told Qiu Yang in the past, but Qiu Yang is still a child after all, and he is extremely smart. In his opinion, the entanglements, worries, and resentments of ordinary people are all self-indulgence. Looking for trouble.

Therefore, she only confided in Qiu Yang, but she never got the response she needed.

Others won't even talk about it, for fear of annoying others if they talk too much.

This is the world of adults. It seems that everyone is a friend, but in fact, I am lonely.

It can be said that birds can fly across thousands of mountains.

"The reason you can't leave is because you chose to end this relationship, but you are unwilling to do so in your heart." Ye Maocong said after hearing the story between her and Xu Yanqing.

"Yes, so over the years, as long as I have the slightest involvement with him, I can't always calm down." Xia Jinxian spat out these words in the cold wind, with white water vapor.

Ye Maocong took off his scarf, wrapped it around her, and placed his hand naturally on her shoulder.

The two people were talking in the cold river breeze. At this moment, their hearts felt calm and joyful. This was the joy of being listened to and understood.

Ye Maocong and Xia Jinxian took a walk to Old Summer Palace Road again. "I brought Lu Xi here before. It was not so lively back then, and we brought Xixi with us."

Xia Jinxian said, "Your daughter's name is Xixi."

Ye Maocong said She said, "Yes, at that time I thought Xixi was the hope of our marriage, and because her name was hidden, this marriage could be maintained no matter what."

Xia Jinxian shook her head and said, "But if a woman is too lonely in a marriage, , it’s really difficult to support myself.”

Ye Maocong took a deep breath, exhaled it, looked up at the sky for a long time and said, “Yes, I always felt that she didn’t understand me at the time, but later I understood that I He didn't understand her either."

Xia Jinxian felt a little sad when she heard this. She couldn't help hugging Ye Maocong. She really felt sorry for him, but also felt sorry for herself who had been silently supporting her for so many years, and for those years when she was not listened to or understood by others. .

Ye Maocong patted her back, suddenly stood up straight, and slightly relaxed his embrace.

Xia Jinxian noticed something strange, so she turned around and saw a group of people walking out of the Youth Association building. The leader was Jiang Weiyi, whom she was familiar with, the former district mayor and now the deputy mayor.

And Jiang Weiyi was followed by a group of people.

In this life, the person who cared about her the most and who was hardest to let go of was also standing there at this moment.

Xia Jinxian's eyes glanced over Xu Yanqing. Jiang Weiyi and others were surprised to see Ye Maocong here.

It only took Ye Maocong a moment to adjust his emotions. He walked over with a smile and shook hands warmly with Jiang Weiyi and others.

Xia Jinxian did not follow her. After all, her status as a blind date was not suitable for being introduced here.

Xu Yanqing shook hands with Ye Maocong across the crowd, while Xia Jinxian looked at him from a distance, across the night and street lights.

This man is far away, but seems very close at the same time.

There was a moment like this back then, when they were so far apart in order to receive Han Yun's mother, Su Liumei.

She was in charge of transportation at the district office's general department, and she couldn't even step into the banquet hall.

When waiting for those distinguished guests to come out, you can stand next to the car and wait.

That day, Han Yun's mother Su Liumei didn't say anything, but accompanied Xu Yanqing. In front of everyone, Xu Yanqing's mother Li Yun asked her before Coster was about to leave, "Are you Xiaoxia? I heard that our Yan Qing I take good care of you. I think you should get to know Xiaoyun too. Why don't you get in the car too? Can you guys have a chat in the car?"

In front of a group of people including Jiang Weiyi, even if she was thick-skinned, she wouldn't do it. Maybe get on the bus.

However, that day, Xu Yanqing got out of the car, faced his strong mother, held her hand and said, "Boss, please leave first. I will go back with my girlfriend."

For a moment, something warm rushed towards her . Entering the eyes, after so many years, that scene is still so clear.

Jiang Weiyi probably no longer recognizes the girl he assigned to the Archives Bureau.

But how could she forget Xu Yanqing like that?

This night, I wanted to try to take that step and try to embrace different people.

But the moment he saw Xu Yanqing, his reason was shattered.

Jiang Weiyi saw Xia Jinxian standing in the distance and thought he looked familiar, but he couldn't remember whether he had seen her before, so he asked Ye Maocong with a smile, "Mr. Ye is having a happy event, are you dating?"

Ye Maocong bowed and turned around to look. He glanced at Xia Jinxian, with unconcealed joy on his face, but said, "She is the daughter of my father's friend. I will go shopping with her to see if there is any chance."

Although Jiang Weiyi and others laughed, they also knew that his father's My friends were all rich or noble people, so I couldn't help but look at Xia Jingxian twice.

Only Xu Yanqing's eyes were cold, as if he hadn't seen her. He was looking into the distance with no emotion.

Many people know about Ye Maocong's background. After all, there are many people in high positions in his family. Ye Maocong was transferred from Chuling to be the first deputy minister of the Organization Department. Naturally, there are many rumors.

It is rumored that he will be the youngest deputy minister in the country to join the Standing Committee of a municipality directly under the Central Government. After all, he served as the municipal party committee secretary of a prefecture-level city in his early 40s and has been in charge of government from the grassroots level. This experience is unmatched by others.

This time, as a local exchange cadre, I went not to ministries but to places like Shanghai. The political significance is self-evident.

Normally, there are not a few people who know his background, but after all, it is not that open. Ye Maocong is relatively low-key in his own way, and he is mature and smooth in his work. Therefore, his reputation is pretty good and he has not discredited the Ye family.

After saying goodbye to Jiang Weiyi and others quickly, Ye Maocong walked to Xia Jinxian and took her in his arms.

Xia Jinxian did not refuse, turned around, and looked into those eyes among the crowd.

But the man turned his back and held the phone. He didn't know who he was talking to.

Since they met, Ye Maocong has always been very attentive. Fortunately, he is busy with official work and has to work overtime almost every night and weekend.

It was a rare Sunday and it was almost the end of the year. Ye Maocong wanted to ask her to spend Christmas together.

As soon as Xia Jinxian saw the message from him, Secretary-General Zhu Wenhao called her over and arranged for her to accompany a CPPCC delegation from Chuling Province on Christmas Day.

The other party and Zhou Zheng are old friends. This time, in addition to seeing urban construction, I also want to see the social governance of the district.

During this period of time, Zhou Zheng paid great attention to cultivating Xia Jinxian. He personally received the inspection team this time. In addition to letting Zhu Wenhao arrange the reception, he also specially took care of it and let Xia Jinxian handle the specific affairs.

Zhu Wenhao arranged the work items for receiving the inspection team, and Xia Jinxian carefully recorded them. Taking into account the entire process, she also made some suggestions.

Ye Maocong's call also came in at this time. Since she didn't reply, he called directly.

Xia Jinxian glanced at it and felt reluctant not to answer.

After picking up the phone in a low voice, Ye Maocong knew that she was busy and said, "Can you stay with me on Christmas day?"

Xia Jinxian glanced at Zhu Wenhao and whispered to Ye Maocong, "I'll call you back later. " After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Zhu Wenhao saw that Xia Jinxian's mobile phone displayed MR. Cong and asked with a smile, "Do you want to go on a date at the weekend?"

Xia Jinxian quickly shook his head and said, "No, work comes first."

Zhu Wenhao then nodded and said, "Personal "

Xia Jinxian was originally going to accompany Lu Mingwei to recuperate, but Zhou Zheng made a temporary arrangement and asked Fu Zibo to follow Lu Mingwei.

Lu Mingwei didn't mind, but Fu Zibo was worried about it.

Xia Jinxian came out of Zhu Wenhao's office. Fu Zibo saw her and said deliberately, "Chief Xia, I will accompany Chairman Lu to Huangshan. If anything happens, I will report to you in time.

" He smiled and said, "Section Chief, please stop laughing at me. I will report the situation here to you and ask for your guidance."

Fu Zibo snorted and said, "What can I advise you?"

Xia Jinxian refused to follow This kind of villain got angry and said, neither humble nor arrogant, "You are the section chief. I should report to you and ask for your guidance."

Fu Zibo then started to sort things out, with heavy hands and feet and a very noisy voice.

When Zhu Wenhao came out and saw Fu Zibo's appearance, he couldn't help but shake his head. He deliberately patted Fu Zibo as a reminder, and Fu Zibo restrained himself.

Xia Jinxian knew that Fu Zibo was not only targeting her, but also that Fu Zibo was very frustrated because he was alienated by Zhou Zheng.

But Zhou Zheng, Zhu Wenhao and Fu Zibo couldn't afford to offend each other, so they took it out on themselves, who had the lowest position.

During lunch, Zhu Jiajia mentioned Fu Zibo's previous difficulty and couldn't help but exclaimed, "If it were me, I would have quarreled with him a long time ago. It's up to you to control yourself."

Xia Jinxian smiled and said, "It's embarrassing for him to do this. It's not me, what does it matter?"

Zhu Jiajia gave a thumbs up and said, "High!"

Xia Jinxian then remembered that she had forgotten to return Minister Ye's call, so she returned the plate and walked up the aisle instead of taking the elevator. Let's go and answer Ye Maocong's call while walking.

Ye Maocong rarely had a free half-day in the morning. He read documents in the office and thought of Xia Jinxian from time to time.

The two of them exchanged a lot of messages these days, but every time they called, Ye Maocong was as eager as when he called Shen Luxi in his early twenties.

He found this feeling rare, and he couldn't help but look forward to it.

Just as he was about to make another call, Xia Jinxian's call came.

"Chief Xia, thank you for your call back." Ye Maocong answered the phone with a smile.

Xia Jinxian sighed, "Minister Ye, you really upset me by calling me that."

Ye Maocong laughed and asked, "How about Christmas? I'll go find you in the evening, okay?"

Xia Jinxian said, "That day Accompanying our Chairman Zhou Zheng to receive the delegation from the Chuling CPPCC,"

Ye Maocong said, "What a coincidence, as a cadre exchanged with Chuling, I have to be there anyway, isn't it?"

Xia Jinxian said silently, " It's Donggang City. Weren't you in Zhenze City before?"

Ye Maocong said, "It seems you have known me." He said this in a tone that could not hide his pride.

Xia Jinxian blushed a little, coughed and said, "Minister Ye is famous far and wide. It's hard to understand."

Ye Maocong said cheekily, "Then I am quite charming."

Xia Jinxian said speechlessly, "You are the official, you are After all, what the leader said is right."

Ye Maocong laughed and said, "The chairman of the CPPCC of Donggang City turns out to be my deputy secretary. Do you think I can stop coming?"

Xia Jinxian didn't know this. He said casually, "I think Chairman Zhou would be willing to invite Minister Ye to come here."

Although Ye Maocong is only the deputy minister, his status as deputy minister is extremely high. He is in charge of the Cadre Department, the Regional Department, and the city's bureaus. If you are a senior cadre, you have to get through his hands.

Ye Maocong asked, "Zhou Zheng is willing, but are you willing?"

Xia Jinxian choked and replied, "Of course I want to implement the leader's decision. Chairman Zhou welcomes it, so I will naturally welcome it."

Ye Maocong recognized her. Knowing that she was a reserved person, she stopped asking and said, "No wonder Lao Jin said he was coming to Shanghai a few days ago. Anyway, I know about it.

" Minister Ye is working overtime, I'm really sorry."

Ye Maocong said, "It's both official and private. This kind of overtime is very cost-effective."

Within two days, Xia Jinxian got the latest news from Zhu Wenhao that city leaders might participate in this event. inspections.

Zhu Wenhao muttered as he spoke, "It doesn't matter which leader it is or what level it is. Anyway, you can make high-standard arrangements and be fully prepared."

Xia Jinxian then secretly sent a message to Ye Maocong to confirm, and got a reply from him saying that he would come to the dinner, but it was also It's the second time. Of course, the main purpose is to see her.

Xia Jinxian put away her phone, feeling a little happy.

This smile met Xia Jinxiu, who had been watching her, so she quickly put away her smile and continued her contact work.

Xia Jinxiu has been targeting Xia Jinxian and Zhu Jiajia during this period, and Zhu Jiajia is also very unhappy about this in private.

She asked Xia Jinxian, "How can you get rid of this kind of person? You know she will harm you, but on the surface you can't break up with her, and you still pretend to be graceful. What's the point?"

Xia Jinxian has seen too much of this. The kind person comforted you, "Knowing that she will harm you, it's better than her being polite to you on the surface and stabbing you in the back, okay?"

Zhu Jiajia asked Xia Jinxian, "Who do you think can stab you in the back?"

Xia Jinxian touched it He touched her head and asked, "Have you forgotten that Cyndi Liu gave you a hard time at the beginning?"

Zhu Jiajia's face darkened, Xia Jinxian smiled at her and said, "You are still like a child, showing everything on your face. "

Zhu Jiajia muttered, "It's right in front of you."

Xia Jinxian smiled and said, "Whatever is lost will be returned. What is taken away through conspiracy will be returned in the end."

Zhu Jiajia asked, "That's it. Do you believe it yourself?"

Xia Jinxian thought about her experiences over the years, nodded slightly, and said with a serious expression, "I want to believe it."

Although she almost lost everything, she is still living well now and has not fallen to the bottom. Fate gave her another experience and gift, making her more peaceful and calm, which is not a bad fortune.

Zhu Jiajia sighed and said, "But I really hate her. Her name is almost the same as yours. How can she be so different from you?"

Xia Jinxian rubbed her head and said, "She thinks this is good. What do you have? What's the solution? Let's go and treat you to milk tea."

Zhu Jiajia was so happy when she heard that there was milk tea. The two of them went out to buy milk tea while the leaders were at the meeting.
