Chapter 58 A Little Moved

  The two of them were now drinking silently, Chen Huan was puzzled, didn't they just say not to drink too much, why are they both rushing to drink now?

  Xiao Xingya suddenly stood up, "Huang Ge, you two brothers haven't seen each other for many years, chat a bit more, I'll go back to my room to rest first." After finishing speaking, she walked straight back to the hotel building.

  After Xiao Xingya left, Chen Gong kept clinking glasses with Chen Huan. When Chen Gong got drunk, he finally spilled everything to Chen Huan, who also felt like he had said too much after hearing it all.

  Chen Hao himself analyzed it there, and knocked on Chen Gong's head, "Brother, it's not that I'm saying you're wrong, but in my lifetime, I only have your sister-in-law, as long as she doesn't dump me, I will be responsible for her for a lifetime, never backing down."

  Chen Gong felt wronged, he and Xiao Xingya didn't have any physical contact, only respect and admiration in their hearts, as well as a deep "feeling" inside, he knew Xiao Xingya was the same.

  Chen Hao's temper flared up, and he scolded Chen Gong nonstop, saying that he wasn't a good man. Since he had a girlfriend, he shouldn't be flirting with other women everywhere. Even if he and Xiao Xingya hadn't taken the initiative to get close to each other, once there were any signs of it in his heart, he should have stopped immediately and cut off contact.

  Chen Haoyue said angrily, "If your feelings for Chen Gong are all on Xiao Xingya now, then go back and make it clear to your original girlfriend. I don't want my brother to be a scumbag who specializes in hurting weak women..."

  Chen Gong lowered his head, listening to his brother's roar. He also stood up and said, "Brother, I won't explain anything to you. In short, I love them very much, and I will handle things well. Even if I have to take out my heart, I don't want them to get hurt. I'll go sleep first."

  Chen Gong walked unsteadily on the road back to the hotel, with several patrolling soldiers trying to support him along the way, but he pushed them all away. Chen Hao saw this from behind and felt uneasy, thinking that he had indeed spoken too harshly and hadn't considered Chen Gong's feelings. He shouted loudly, "Brother, cherish everyone who loves you and treat them well! I'll come visit you in the southern province when I have time, you must work hard!"

  Chen Gong listened to Chen Huan's words in front of him, without turning his body, and only raised his right hand to make a victory gesture.

  Chen Gong returned to his room, too exhausted to even take a bath, and fell asleep as soon as he lay down. In his dream, there were three women standing around him, while Chen Gong led three women from the bottom of a high staircase, step by step, to the top.

  In the next room, Xue Xingya, who had already fallen asleep, looked very thin, and there were still visible traces of tears at the corners of her eyes.

  The next morning, Xiao Xingya adjusted her mindset and accompanied him for another day. When she returned to Fuhai, except for official business, she drew a line between private matters. After all, it's better to put out the growing emotional spark before it gets bigger.

  Arriving at the Jinxiu Industrial Park Management Committee, after Chen Gong closed the car door, "Comrade Xiao Wang, this time you've been had, next time you must come to Nanbu Province and I'll treat you well. If not, Comrade Xiao Wang, why don't you just go back to the military district? We'll drive ourselves to the airport in the afternoon."

  Xiao Xingya also agreed with Chen Gong's words, having troubled Little Wang for several days and almost causing him serious injury, which made her feel uneasy in her heart.

  Xiao Wang shook his head hard, and no matter how Chen Gong and Xiao Xingya tried to persuade him, it was ineffective. He had to wait until the afternoon to send them smoothly to the airport before returning. In a few days, they also developed deep feelings for Xiao Wang.

  The director of the Project Construction Bureau knew that Chen Gong and Xiao Xingya would arrive in the afternoon, so he waited specially in his office and prepared many "treasures" accumulated over the years in Jinxiu Industrial Park. Through a few days of contact, the director liked Chen Gong and Xiao Xingya very much and wanted to help them as much as possible, bringing experience back to Fuhai and letting them build a good park.

  The director saw the two young people holding materials and looked at them, haha laughed, "Hey, you two are also mid-level cadres, your learning attitude is good, but don't be so impatient. You think you can finish reading in a day? This afternoon you will take a plane back, after going back slowly study, I'll go out for a while, you chat."

  The director had already made up his mind to help them, so he wanted to invite Liu Ping, the deputy director of the management committee, to tell them about some experiences over the past few years.

  The director knew that Deputy Director Liu, although a bit self-serving, was very familiar with the various data and information about Jinxiu Garden District, and had some ability. However, the legacy problems left by the previous leadership were no longer something that one or two people could solve with their abilities.

  "Director Liu, hello. I have something to report to you. Two leaders from the Fuhai Industrial Park in Southern Province are leaving Jianghe this afternoon. I think they're both quite good, see if you can spare some time to meet them."

  On the other end of the phone, Liu Ping's tone seemed not very friendly. "No meeting, no meeting. If I see anyone who is not at a certain level in the future, I will be annoyed to death. Now I am accompanying the secretary together... Hmm, don't bother, let them wait at the management committee."

  The director listened and couldn't understand what Liu Ping meant. Anyway, they were going to the airport in the afternoon, so just let them sit here for a while.

  Liu Ping knew it was Chen Gong and Xiao Xingya, so he didn't get along with them. It turned out that he had secretly sent someone to investigate their activities in the Jinxiu Industrial Park over the past few days. There is no wall that doesn't leak, and their contact with Ouyang Asia was also known.

  Liu Ping thought, I saw them, they came to poach our people, just now wanted to tell them to get out on the phone, immediately thought of reporting them, let the secretary know, this secretary is the Jianghe Municipal Party Committee Secretary.

  Secretary Jianghe's purpose in coming to inspect today is precisely because of the enterprises reflected by these masses, who are thinking about a reasonable solution. As soon as he heard what Liu Ping said, he suddenly became furious, slammed his hand on the table and shouted: "What kind of thing is this? Outsiders dare to come to our Jianghe City to poach people, and they all target big enterprises to poach, and several at once! What does this count as? You tell me what this counts as!"

  Liu Ping immediately added fuel to the fire, "Our Jianghe Industrial Park may not be large in scale, but it's not up to a newly established municipal park to come to our territory and act recklessly. Moreover, there are only two mid-level cadres. I think that if their management committee director and deputy director came, Secretary, you would personally receive them, but they might still not be satisfied."

  The secretary was furious and shouted at the municipal leaders who accompanied him, "Go to the management committee first, I'll check some data before continuing to inspect the site."

  The secretary whispered to Liu Ping, "I'll go and see if they're really that capable later."

  Chen Gong and Xiao Xingya were flipping through the materials, and as soon as they found a bright spot, they spoke out to discuss it. After Director Liu entered the office, he immediately told them about Vice Director Liu wanting to see them, and also mentioned that Vice Director Liu was an old hand at managing the park. The two naturally had a small prejudice against Liu Ping, after all, it was their first meeting, and because of their low status, they were not willing to receive them.

  Xiao Xingya saw that Chen Gong was somewhat resentful, so she patted Chen Gong and said in a low voice, "Maybe he really had something to do that day, why are you thinking like this?"

  Chen Gong didn't want to argue with Xiao Xingya either, forget it, let's just assume he really had something that day, and hope to make a good impression when they meet again.

  Ten minutes later, the director answered a phone call and walked in to say to Chen Gong and others, "Both of you, let's go. Go to Deputy Director Liu's office and wait for him. He'll be back soon."

  Finally waited for Deputy Director Liu, I don't know if he was really busy or not punctual, or if it was intentional. He sat in Liu Ping's office for a full 20 minutes before finally seeing his figure.

  "Hey, you two are quite all right!" Liu Ping said as soon as he entered the door.

  Xiao Xingya didn't want to make the relationship awkward, so she replied, "Thank you, Director Liu, for taking time out of your busy schedule. We are very sincere in waiting for you to share with us your management experience..."

  Liu Ping waved his hand to interrupt Xiao Xingya's words, "I don't dare give you any advice, I know you're about to leave. Actually, this time I dared to come back is to learn from you, to learn the technique of digging corners. Can the two of you enlighten me?"

  Chen Gong and Xiao Xingya understood that Liu Ping knew about their private contact with the enterprise, but since they had done it, they didn't fear admitting it. Chen Gong stepped forward, "Yes, Director Liu, we are all straightforward people. Because Oulaiya Company and Youyou Company are negotiating relocation compensation with the local government and your management committee, and both companies will be leaving, so we put up an advertisement. I think it shouldn't have any impact. Moreover, both companies said that before relocating, they would not further contact us."

  To avoid betraying the two companies, Chen Gong told a small lie in the last one, but these did not affect Liu Ping's prejudice against them. Half-truths were unimportant; what mattered was that their actions were very sensitive.

  Liu Ping's tone rose, "Stop messing with me, I don't care about the outcome of your negotiations. This behavior of yours is simply robbery, banditry. If the two companies want to move away, fine, but as for compensation, I think the standard should be lowered even further."

  "Director Liu, if you have any issues, just come to us directly. Why bother the two companies? I think if they knew about your committee's attitude now, they might have moved out already."

  Liu Ping jumped up, "I can't collect from you, I'll let the Inspection Bureau, Court, Disciplinary Committee and Administrative Department of Letters and Visits come to investigate you. With your kind of quality, I will make you notorious and let you be infamous in the southern province."

  Xiao Xingya pulled Chen Gong and said, "We won't listen to your mad barking anymore, let's go."

  Secretary Jianghe had been listening to the conversation between the two sides outside the door, and he was also very dissatisfied with Chen Gong and Xiao Xingya. How dare they be so arrogant on my turf? "Leave, where are you going? Did I agree?"

  Liu Ping saw the secretary enter the door and felt relieved. The secretary personally received them, and this time they finally vented their anger.

  Liu Ping saw the secretary seemingly suddenly not feeling well, almost falling down while walking, and immediately went forward to support him. Who knew that the secretary pushed him away, walked slowly towards Chen Gong, and sweat had already seeped out of his forehead, feeling physically and mentally exhausted. "Chief, it's you! I admired your demeanor by the river that day, and unexpectedly have the honor of being in such close proximity to you, it's my privilege."
