The officialdom of rebirth

"Why doesn't it matter?"

President Qian became emotional in an instant, and he stretched out his hand, trying to grab Jiang Xin's hand on the table.

Jiang Xin was taken aback, and quickly withdrew her hand. President Qian was in vain, but just grabbed Jiang Xin's mobile phone. In a hurry, he said anxiously: "Jiang Xin, don't you understand that even today? Is it? If I didn't want to save face, I think you would definitely stay for me, of course, it's not too late now, isn't it? "

Jiang Xin understood more or less at this time, she would never have thought that Chairman Qian would have such thoughts about her, if she had known it was like this, she would 100% not have sat at the same table with him just now.If it wasn't for the fact that she had some friendship with President Qian, her first reaction would be to get up and walk away.

Seeing President Qian staring at her expectantly, Jiang Xin felt a little fuzzy in her heart, but she waved her hands without hesitation and replied, "No, no, President Qian, you really misunderstood, you I don't know what I think, and I don't want to know, but I can tell you clearly now that it is impossible between me and you. Let me tell you the truth, I have only loved one man in my life. Yes, it is now, and it will definitely be in the future! This has nothing to do with you, please respect yourself!"

After President Qian finished listening, his face froze immediately. He stared blankly at the nervous Jiang Xin, opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.It's no wonder that he had planned very well at first. You must know that when he was in school, he, the president of the student union, was a famous figure, and I don't know how many girls had a crush on him.However, he only likes Jiang Xin, who also works in the student union, but as he himself said, after learning that Jiang Xin has a sweetheart, he gave up in pain. Originally, he thought that after so many years, Jiang Xin should have given up. The ignorant first love before, and the reunion of the two tonight is a rare fate, and it may also be a beautiful beginning, so he mustered up the courage to say this confession that was more than ten years late Export it, but who knows.In the end, what was exchanged was a basin of cold water poured down by Jiang Xin.This made him wonder for a while how to face Jiang Xin and how to deal with himself. After all, everyone is a successful person with a reputation.You can't do anything too outrageous, can you?

And just when President Qian was in a daze.Jiang Xin was also extremely embarrassed.Carefully took her mobile phone back from the dazed President Qian, then quickly got up from the seat and picked up her Kun bag.Quickly said in a low voice: "I'm sorry, Chairman Qian, I have to take my leave first."

After all, how could she dare to stay here, and hurriedly turned around and walked towards the entrance of the banquet hall.

Chairman Qian came back to his senses, and quickly wanted to call her back: "Jiang Xin, wait!"

Jiang Xin not only didn't stop, but acted as if she didn't hear her, and her steps became faster.But after walking a few steps, she suddenly stopped again, turned around abruptly, turned her head and looked in the direction of the rostrum...

President Qian was overjoyed, thinking that Jiang Xin had changed her mind or was moved by his deep feelings, so she quickly got up and chased after him. Just as she was about to speak, Jiang Xin didn't even look at him, she just opened her mouth lightly: " I'm sorry, President Qian, I've made it clear what I need to say, now, I just want to be alone for a while, is that okay?"

President Qian was taken aback for a moment, swallowed the words back in his stomach with a somewhat ugly expression, and returned to his seat in a embarrassed manner.

And it happened to be exactly eight o'clock at this time, and this grand alumni association was officially opened under the introduction of the host.

"Every Yanda leader, every teacher, all Yanda alumni who have gone abroad, and all the guests present here tonight, friends, good evening! First of all, I will gather again at the Alumni Association for ten years as the man of Yanda The host, here to introduce to all the alumni the heavyweight guests we invited this time..."

The host gave an enthusiastic opening speech on the stage. The entire banquet hall was completely dark at the moment, and all the lights were turned off. Only a giant ceiling light above the rostrum was still shining brightly. With the introduction of the host , every heavyweight guest whose name was called stood up one by one and nodded to the alumni in the audience. Naturally, in such a high-level fraternity, everyone who is qualified to sit on the rostrum is The real man of the hour, except for a few leaders of Yan University, the rest are all outstanding students among the countless students who have graduated from Yan University over the years.

However, Jiang Xin's eyes did not follow the host's passionate introduction to the influential figures on the stage one by one, but fixed her eyes on a man standing next to the rostrum.

Yes, this man is Chen Yang who was dragged to the rostrum by Vice President Li before.

In the end, Chen Yang did not go up to the rostrum to take a seat, but stopped near the rostrum. No matter what Vice President Li said, he still politely declined Vice President Li's request.In fact, this is not surprising, after all, his current status is extraordinary. If he had not prepared in advance, he would never have made any remarks in such a semi-public occasion, not to mention that he had no intention of asking for it from the bottom of his heart. Come over to this alumni reunion.

Regarding Chen Yang's decision, Vice President Li can only feel extremely regrettable and regretful. Fortunately, Chen Yang is not at all embarrassed and did not give the teacher who taught him in the past, so he agreed to Vice President Li and waited later After the reception starts, I will stay to chat with several school leaders, take a photo or something.

Soon, the conversation on the rostrum came to an end, followed by the speech by the leader of Yanda University. As the most professional representative sent by the Yanda University Committee of the Alumni Association, Vice President Li did his part to shoulder this heavy responsibility. , with a smile all over his face, he spoke for about 5 minutes on the stage according to the prepared speech.

Then, a speech was arranged by a representative of Yanda alumni. This alumnus can be regarded as a successful person. After graduating from Yanda, he started his own environmental protection technology company and has become a leading enterprise in the same industry in China. .And also successfully listed on the market, he himself is also a big boss with a net worth of several billion.

And this kind of reception is actually to create a platform for everyone to communicate and exchange. To put it bluntly, it is just to build relationships and make friends. With the relationship of alumni, it is naturally much more convenient than some ordinary receptions.

Therefore, after the big boss finished his speech, the networking reception officially started soon.

The banquet hall restored its previous bright lights, and all the guests, whether they knew it or not, raised their wine glasses one after another. During Vice President Li's toast, they were in a warm atmosphere.Everyone drank the first glass of wine.And after that, it's normal social time. Anyway, there are no restrictions in the banquet hall, as long as they are acquaintances.You can have a drink or two with each other at will.Chat for a while.

Chen Yang agreed to Vice President Li's request.Naturally, he didn't leave at this time.

"Hehe, Secretary Peng, take a look. Who did I invite here?"

Vice-principal Li introduced to the school leaders whom he brought over with a red face.

Secretary Peng really didn't recognize Chen Yang for a while, holding a wine glass, he looked at Chen Yang with a puzzled expression, "This classmate is..."

Chen Yang smiled and stretched out his hand and said, "Secretary Peng, hello, I'm Chen Yang, don't you remember me?"

After all, Secretary Peng was involved in party affairs. When he heard the name Chen Yang, he suddenly thought of it. He was flattered and took Chen Yang's hand, and replied happily: "Yes, yes, I remembered. You are Chen Yang, oh no, no, secretary Chen, hello, hello."

"Secretary Peng, don't be too polite. I still remember that you were the head of our department when I was still in Yanda..." Chen Yang replied with a smile.

Chen Yang's words immediately made Secretary Peng's old face burst into laughter. He was so excited that he held Chen Yang's hand tightly, and was so excited that he couldn't speak: "Secretary Chen, you, you

......"

Chen Yang really didn't expect that Peng Hua, the rigid head of the department back then, would become so official now, nodding and bowing in front of his student, it really made him very helpless, but he had no choice, he could only smile Life endured.

After finally exchanging pleasantries with the school leaders in this circle, and having two more drinks with them, Chen Yang did not intend to stay any longer, and said goodbye to Vice President Li with a smile: "Teacher Li, look, if you don't For other things, I will take my leave first."

"Well, Secretary Chen, you can wait a little longer."

"Yes, Secretary Chen, it's rare for you to come here, can you stay for a while?"

.....

Several school leaders tried to persuade him to stay.

Chen Yang really didn't want to stay any longer, so he could only find an excuse to shirk and said: "Hehe, I appreciate the kindness of the old leaders, but I have something to do later, or I will find another day It’s time to go back to my alma mater to visit everyone.”

Speaking of this, although Vice President Li and others felt it was a pity, they could only agree, and several school leaders personally sent Chen Yang to the entrance of the banquet hall. They went downstairs, but Chen Yang resolutely declined. In the end, the school leaders had to send Chen Yang into the elevator before stopping with regret.

After the elevator door closed, Chen Yang let out a sigh of relief. To be honest, he can be regarded as an old fritter who has been in the officialdom for more than ten years, but he really can't stand the school where these teachers are not like teachers, and officials are not like officials. The enthusiasm of the leaders, staying with them really made Chen Yang very uncomfortable.

After staying in the elevator for a short while, taking a breath, Chen Yang remembered that he hadn't pressed the button on the first floor, and just wanted to reach out to press it, but at this moment, with a "ding", the elevator door slowly opened again.

Just as Chen Yang subconsciously wanted to raise his eyes to look towards the door, his expression suddenly changed, and he froze all of a sudden.

Outside the elevator door, Jiang Xin, who was wearing a black evening dress and a slim windbreaker, was standing in front of him, her face was a little pale, her lips were tightly pressed, and her eyes were fixed on his face with complicated eyes, as if there was something wrong with her. I wanted to say something to him but I held back.

Because Jiang Xin kept pressing the button outside the door with one hand, the elevator door could not be closed. The two people just looked at each other like this.

After more than ten seconds, Chen Yang asked with a wry smile, "Why are you here?"

Jiang Xin didn't answer his boring question, but still stared at him blankly.However, unconsciously, her eye circles seemed to be gradually covered with a thin layer of mist, and her thin body also seemed to tremble slightly inaudibly...

"Hmm..." The corners of Chen Yang's mouth hooked slightly, and he didn't know what to say, so he continued to ask, "When did you return to China?"

It was a long time after Chen Yang's voice fell, and Jiang Xin finally opened her mouth. She took a light breath, lowered her eyes, and smiled self-deprecatingly: "I thought you wouldn't want to know. Don't you?"

Chen Yang was taken aback.Suddenly, he felt that this was not a problem. After all, there were people coming and going near the elevator, so it was better to change places quickly, but when he was about to ask Jiang Xin to come in.Suddenly there was an urgent shout from outside: "Jiang Xin, wait for me."

Chen Yang was taken aback.Quickly stopped talking, and subconsciously looked outside, only to see a handsome man in a blue dress running towards the elevator at this moment.

But Jiang Xin was shocked when she heard the sound.Not caring about pressing the elevator button outside the door, he dodged and quickly entered the elevator, and at the same time pressed the button for the "1" floor in a hurry.

But her movements were still a little slow, and there was a soft bang, and the person behind her just rushed over the moment the elevator door closed, and stretched out her arm to block the elevator door that was about to close.

Soon, the door opened again, and while wiping the sweat from his forehead with a clean white square scarf, the man panted anxiously and said to Jiang Xin: "Jiang Xin, I think I should finish talking to you. "As he said, he put one hand on the elevator box door, and looked at Jiang Xin affectionately, "Maybe if you miss tonight, the fate between the two of us will really come to an end, won't it?"

Needless to say, this uninvited guest is naturally Chairman Qian who failed to show love to Jiang Xin not long ago.

And if Jiang Xin didn't pay much attention to President Qian's inexplicable confession when she was in the banquet hall just now, because Chen Yang corrected her side, her pretty face suddenly became hot, and her heart Bian was in a hurry, what is the fate between us?

Jiang Xin was really anxious and angry, and at the same time, she was even more afraid that Chen Yang would cause unnecessary misunderstandings to herself, so she hurriedly said to Chairman Qian who was acting like a lover: "President Qian, didn't I tell you in there just now? Is it very clear? It is impossible for me and you, please respect me, okay? How can it be possible for me and you?"

"No, Jiang Xin, of course I respect you." President Qian interrupted Jiang Xin's words loudly, and continued to speak with a very painful face, "Jiang Xin, do you know? What you said just now is thorough I woke up, and I finally understood, yes, it is because I have always respected your emotional world too much and paid too much attention to your feelings, which has led to the fate between me and you again and again Miss it, originally, we could have achieved a period that everyone would envy..."

"Qian Wenbin, can you stop talking!"

Jiang Xin was finally driven a little crazy, and no longer cared about her ladylike manners, she loudly cut off President Qian's increasingly explicit words.

Unfortunately, Chairman Qian has been completely dazzled by love at this moment. He knows very well in his heart that after tonight, he may never have the chance to embrace a beautiful woman again.

So, with a hot head, he would not care about Jiang Xin's strong reaction, and shouted loudly: "No, Jiang Xin, I have to say, do you know, more than ten years ago, it was because I refused to say it, I have always refused to say it." I am willing to tell you what is in my heart, and in the end, you are hurt again and again, and you are forced to leave a foreign country. Today, here, I will never allow the tragedy of the year to repeat itself!"

Chairman Qian spoke resolutely and resoundingly.

"Qian Wenbin, have you said enough!"

Jiang Xin almost fainted on the spot when she heard this. You must know that Chen Yang is also in this small elevator room now. If Chen Yang misunderstood that she had an affair with the president of the student union, she really wanted to die.

But it's also because Chen Yang is here, but it's inconvenient for her to speak clearly. After all, although President Qian seems to be a little dizzy at the moment, who knows what if he comes back to his senses tomorrow? , recognized Chen Yang, wouldn't that cause unnecessary trouble for Chen Yang?

Indeed, at this moment Jiang Xin really wanted to cry. She subconsciously turned her head and glanced at Chen Yang with embarrassment on her face, but she saw that Chen Yang was looking curiously at this moment, smiling endlessly. Looking at her, and the affectionate Chairman Qian.As for what Chen Yang was thinking at the moment, she couldn't tell at all.

Chairman Qian seemed to be completely immersed in his own little world, and he didn't even notice that there was a third person in the elevator room at the moment, and continued to speak loudly to Jiang Xin excitedly: "No, Jiang Xin, I haven't finished yet! This time, I must tell you everything I want to express."

Jiang Xin was completely defeated by President Qian, she closed her eyes and took a deep breath.He said coldly: "Okay. Tell me, finish your sentence at once!"

Chairman Qian thought Jiang Xin was moved by him when he heard the words, so he immediately lifted his spirits and looked at Jiang Xin with deep affection.Lowered the volume again.He said affectionately: "Jiang Xin. Do you remember the first time we met? Oh, I don't think you will forget that year was our first semester at Yanda University. I remember it was almost During the final exam, I saw you by the Weiming Lake for the first time. At that time, you seemed very unhappy. You kept throwing pebbles into the lake, and kept swearing 'bad guy, Big villain', I can guess that it must be a boy who made you angry. At that time, I was thinking, who would be willing to be angry with you, a peerless beauty like you? This made me feel I was very curious, and I took the initiative to go up to comfort you, but unfortunately, at that time, you were like a wounded little rabbit. After seeing me passing by, you ran away shyly. Yes, I thought I don't understand why you refused my help, now I figured it out, you were probably shy at that time..."

Chairman Qian really deserves to be a chatterbox, but his words vividly outlined the appearance of a young girl in Huai Chun who was sulking alone by the lake.

But Jiang Xin didn't know why, and the circles of her eyes suddenly turned red.

The thoughts in her mind seemed to be brought back to that cold winter more than ten years ago by Chairman Qian's words.

Yes, of course she still remembers, in fact, for her, the four years of studying at Yanda University are the most beautiful time in her life that she will never forget.

Not because she was young in those years, but because in those years, besides her, there was also him......

He might not be able to remember it, but he would never forget it. Just as Chairman Qian recalled, in the winter of that year, she fell in love with a boy for the first time in her life. Of course, it was also the last time.

I still remember that it was actually a very small thing. At that time, Chen Yang just got a score of [-] in the last test of English. I could help Chen Yang with his English final exam, and even offered to lend Chen Yang his class notebook, but Chen Yang politely refused, and Chen Yang even said cheerfully that he didn't need it. Help, I hope the monitor will lend the notebook to those students who really need it.

In fact, it is not accurate to say that Chen Yang is an underachiever. In fact, although Chen Yang's grades in various subjects were not ranked in the top few when he was in school, they were still quite good overall. That is, his English was a little weak, but he would not be reduced to a low level. To the level of poor students in Jiang Xin's mouth is entirely Jiang Xin's own wishful thinking. You must know that at least Chen Yang can get [-]% in the English exam. Isn't she, the class monitor, eager to help those students who are really underachievers?

Of course, Chen Yang at that time was just a piece of wood, how could he understand the little thoughts of girls. After being rejected, Jiang Xin was so sullen that she ran to the lake to throw stones.

It's just that, of course, Chen Yang didn't remember this kind of trivial matter, but Jiang Xin would never forget it. It's no wonder that when President Qian mentioned it, she couldn't help her nose sore, and she felt like crying.

She secretly glanced at Chen Yang, as expected, Chen Yang still had a curious and smiling expression, and didn't think of anything at all.

When Chairman Qian saw Jiang Xin showing her true feelings, he would be completely wrong. He really thought he had found the key to unlock Jiang Xin's emotional door, so he became more emotional and continued to say affectionately: "Jiang Xin, you Maybe I don't know, of course, I just figured it out now, maybe when I saw you for the first time, I fell in love with you deeply, but you also know that I am a very conceited Man, I have my pride, and I don't allow even the slightest flaw in my love life, but until today, I didn't realize that I was wrong, it was too wrong, wasn't it?"

When Chairman Qian was talking about **, an awkward laugh sounded beside his ears.

"Uh, who...Excuse me, alumnus Qian, can I interrupt your memory a little bit?"

Yes, although Chen Yang knew it was a bit impolite, but he couldn't stand it anymore, so he could only interrupt Chairman Qian.

Chairman Qian didn't seem to realize that there was a third party in the elevator room until then. He was startled for a moment, then subconsciously looked at Chen Yang, frowned and scolded, "Who are you?"

"Uh, this..."

Chen Yang didn't know whether he should tell the other party his name, and to be honest, he actually felt a little sympathetic to President Qian. After all, he looked like a dog, and he was invited to participate in this alumni association. He can be regarded as an alumnus who didn't do badly, how could he not be reduced to the current appearance, just a typical poor guy who can't get girls?

"Well, it's like this, this alumnus, I think, things like feelings are often reluctant..."

Before Chen Yang could finish his sentence, President Qian yelled at Chen Yang with a livid face like a cat whose tail was trampled on: "Who are you? Do you know what emotion is? What if you don't understand?" , just shut up, and don’t tarnish my feelings. Also, you are also a decent person, do you know how to be polite? Why do you interrupt when others are talking! It’s none of your business here, go away, okay no?"

"This......"

Chen Yang was a little bit embarrassed by President Qian's continuous scolding, he didn't know how to persuade this poor guy?Is it possible to tell the other party directly that the man Jiang Xin likes is herself, are you out of play in this life?I'm afraid that if Chen Yang really wants to say this, the other party will rush to the next life and tear his heart away.

Jiang Xin saw Chen Yang's rare embarrassment on the side, but she couldn't help laughing through her tears, covered her mouth and let out a chuckle.

And obviously, President Qian didn't bother to talk to Chen Yang at all. He pressed the elevator's door close button firmly with one hand, and turned his gaze back to Jiang Xin's incomparably pretty face. She looked affectionate, and then said: "Jiang Xin, I still remember that in my senior year, when we were about to graduate, when all the cadres and officers of our student union had dinner together, after I knew you weren't here, I personally ran to your class to find you. I remember when I was standing in the corridor, when I saw you alone in the empty classroom, crying on the table, how much my heart ached at that time. Did you know?" (To be continued...)
