The officialdom of rebirth

After [-] o'clock in the evening, the lanterns come on, making the beautiful lake city more colorful.

Riding in the night, Chen Yang slowly drove the car into the underground parking lot of the Green Lake Hotel.

The Green Lake Hotel is built on the bank of the Green Lake, surrounded by mountains and rivers, with unique scenery. Although it is only a four-star hotel, it has always been the royal hotel of the provincial government.

After parking the car, the two registered as visitors at the front desk, then took the elevator up to the fifteenth floor together, found room 1508, and rang the doorbell. [

With two ding dongs, the door opened.

"mom."

The two yelled at Ms. Li who opened the door one after another.

After entering, Chen Yang glanced quickly into the room, but he didn't see Xiang Jin's shadow.On the way here, he didn't know how many calls he made to Xiang Jin, but Xiang Jin's cell phone was simply turned off, and he called Xiang Jin's house, but Xiang Jin's mother said she didn't know, and she hadn't come back yet. .Now that he couldn't see anyone here, he was even more worried.He was very afraid that Xiang Jin would not be able to stand the harsh words of his adoptive mother and would do stupid things.

"Xiao Yang, what are you looking for?" Ms. Li shouted in displeasure.

"Mom, where is Xiang Jin?" Chen Yang turned his head to look at Ms. Li, since he had already spoken, there was no need to hide it.

The corner of Ms. Li's mouth twitched, but she didn't respond to Chen Yang. Instead, she turned to Chen Ruonan and said, "Ruo Nan, you watch TV outside by yourself, and I'll talk to Xiao Yang." After finishing speaking, she looked at Chen Yang again, He said coldly, "Come in with me."

"Mom, why can't I listen!" Chen Ruonan was very puzzled, this is not a family.But Chen Yang's heart tightened, and he felt a faint premonition of an ominous cold.

"Be obedient!" Ms. Li frowned and reprimanded her daughter.Chen Ruonan became honest now, and sat back on the sofa angrily.

Chen Yang followed Ms. Li into the compartment, opened the door, followed quickly, sat on the side of the bed, and asked, "Mom, did Xiang Jin come to see you before?"

Ms. Li raised her eyes to look at Chen Yang, snorted lightly, and said with a look of hatred for iron, and said: "Xiao Yang, I have given you enough time, don't you still want to let it go? I will make a fuss I don't understand, what's so good about that little actor that you like her so much?"

Chen Yang's face changed when he heard the words, and he said solemnly: "Mom, please don't say that about Xiang Jin in the future, because you are insulting me like this!"

Ms. Li knows that Chen Yang is a very proud person in her bones, and she admires her son the most. She sighed slightly and said, "Xiao Yang, forget about that girl, don't provoke her again." .”

What is provocation?

Chen Yang suppressed the anger in his heart, and looked at Ms. Li without saying a word.He didn't ask why, because he knew why.

Seeing that Chen Yang didn't speak, Ms. Li went on to say, "Xiao Yang, I can tell you that your marriage has been settled."

Sure enough, except that the time has moved a little earlier, there is no difference from the previous life.

Chen Yang refused without thinking, "Mom, I'm sorry, I really can't accept it."

"You child, why are you so uneasy!" Ms. Li is an experienced person, and she has seen too many young people who love to death in her life, but she did not expect that the son she raised by herself is so immature. His face suddenly turned cold, and he gasped. [

"Xiao Yang, let me tell you frankly that the old man already knew about your marriage and nodded. I didn't come to discuss with you today, but I wanted to inform you in advance so that you can be mentally prepared. What's more, your grandfather is also very optimistic about this marriage, and before going to Ningbian for inspection, he specially asked your second uncle to leave a message, telling me to make it happen."

In fact, Chen Yang was mentally prepared for this, and what was supposed to come would come sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to come so soon.Moreover, although Ms. Li spoke cryptically, he already understood.This marriage is a bit different from the previous life, it seems that it is no longer purely Ms. Li's messing around with the couples, but faintly involves the interests of the two big families, Chen and Li.

Chen Yang frowned, did not speak, and fell silent.After a long time, he sighed and asked, "Mom, what if I don't want to let go?"

Ms. Li's tone also became serious: "Xiao Yang, you are a man, you must learn to look at any problem rationally, and always have a balance scale in your heart to measure your interests. You must understand that whether you are in the Chen family or the Li family, the You can't do that kind of thing any way you want. If you think you can change the old man's mind, go ahead and try."

Chen Yang raised his head slightly, and turned his face to the side bluntly. Such preaching could only make him feel bitter in his heart.

Of course he knew very well that once the old man was alarmed by this matter, it would be impossible to turn around.Isn't the previous life a living example, the arms can't twist the thighs after all.If he wants to complain, he only blames himself for not having enough weight. After living two lifetimes, in the end he still doesn't have the slightest say in family affairs, including his own lifelong affairs.I thought that if I didn't stay in the capital after graduation, and hide in a place where the Chen faction's influence can't reach, I wouldn't attract the old man's attention. After all, I was also an outsider, but I didn't expect

Heh, now that I think about it, I'm really naive. Chen Ruonan is already 25 years old this year. Logically, he should have talked about marriage a long time ago, but why hasn't he?That's right, parents don't even mean to urge you?I'm afraid that the old man has made a plan long ago, so he should regard himself as a chess piece to maintain the relationship between Chen and Li.

Chen Yang knew that there was no need for him to talk to his adoptive mother anymore, and no matter how much he said, it would not make up for the matter. Judging from Xiang Jin's strange behavior of never turning on the phone, he probably followed the way of his adoptive mother.

The top priority now is to find Xiang Jin, and then go back together and explain the situation to his father. If it still doesn't make sense, then he is not a proper official!

Thinking of this, he immediately got up from the bed, swallowed hard, and said, "Mom, I still have something to do, so I'll go back first."

Ms. Li sighed and said, "You child, why bother." After finishing speaking, she took out a pen from the drawer, wrote a few words on the sticky note, and handed it to Chen Yang, "That girl It should still be here now, so go and have a few words with her."

Chen Yang was startled, took the note and glanced at it.

No. 106, Green Lake Avenue, Building 9, Provincial Veteran Cadre Compound, Tel.

Isn't this the provincial party committee cadre compound opposite the green lake?

Chen Yang was even more strange.

"Go, don't come back too late." Ms. Li stood up as she spoke, and reached out to gently stroke the back of Chen Yang's head, "Xiao Yang, you have to remember, this is the last time."

Although Chen Yang didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in his adoptive mother's gourd, he still nodded, then turned around and rushed out immediately.

Bang!

As soon as the door was opened, a black figure flashed past the door and collided with him. Immediately afterwards, there was a cry of "ah" in the living room.

Chen Yang didn't care to stop, so he just looked back. It turned out that Chen Ruonan had been bumped by him. He didn't need to think about it to know that the girl had been eavesdropping outside just now.

"Mom, look at him, he's in a hurry, rushing to reincarnate!" Chen Ruonan yelled at Chen Yang's back, and while rubbing his sprained foot, he complained to his mother who came over .

"Hehe, you silly girl, who told you to come and eavesdrop on our conversation, you deserve it if you sprain your ankle." Ms. Li pinched her daughter's tender face dotingly, helped her to sit on the sofa. [

"Mom, I seem to have heard you say that you wanted to find someone for Chen Yang during the Chinese New Year last time. You mentioned it to him just now, and you said that grandpa, grandpa, and the others knew about it. Who exactly did you help him find?" Tell me about it." Chen Ruonan couldn't comprehend Chen Yang's mood at all, and started gossiping to his mother as soon as he sat down.

"Silly girl, do you really want to know?" Ms. Li smiled.

"Well, of course." Chen Ruonan blinked his big bright eyes with curiosity on his face.

"Hehe, you'll know after the new year, and now you have to keep it a secret." Ms. Li is very procedural, and she won't show up with her daughter until Chen Yang is settled.

"Mom!" Chen Ruonan grumbled and pouted, "It's fine if you don't say anything. I'll call my second uncle another day."

As expected, Chen Yang was stopped by the armed police soldiers standing guard at the gate of the compound of the provincial party committee veteran cadres.After the good words came to nothing, he had to take out his mobile phone and dial the number Ms. Li wrote on the note.

The phone rang once and got through.

"Hi, hello, who are you looking for?" A woman's voice came through the receiver, but it wasn't Xiang Jin.

"Hi, please help me find Xiang Jin." Chen Yang replied politely.

"Okay, wait a moment." After the other party finished speaking, he put the phone down.

When Chen Yang heard it, there is a door!

After only a short while, the voice came from the receiver again.

"Chen Yang, why are you still looking for me?" It was Xiang Jin's voice.

Although he couldn't see anyone, Chen Yang could tell that Xiang Jin's voice was hoarse and his voice was choked.Knowing that Xiang Jin must have suffered a lot of grievances today, she felt a pain in her heart, and said apologetically, "Xiang Jin, I'm sorry for making you feel wronged."

"Stop talking!" Xiang Jin yelled at the phone suddenly, then hung up the phone with a snap.

Chen Yang stared at the phone inexplicably for a while, and when he dialed back again, he was told by the woman in front that he didn't need to call again, and Xiang Jin would never answer his calls again.In desperation, he had no choice but to tell the other party that he was at the gate of the compound now, and asked her to tell Xiang Jin that if Xiang Jin refused to come out, he would not leave.

Soon, 5 minutes passed

Xiang Jin didn't show up.

10 minutes passed

A look of anxiety flashed in Chen Yang's eyes. He wanted to make a call but found that the other party had already unplugged the phone line.

half an hour has passed

There was a pile of cigarette butts on the ground, but Xiang Jin still didn't come.

An hour later, the armed police soldiers at the gate became impatient, and they came over and said to Chen Yang in a formulaic way: "Comrade, please leave here immediately." Grab it.

"You little comrade, didn't you listen to what I said just now? I'm waiting for someone, and she will come down soon." Chen Yang replied very old-fashionedly, throwing away the last cigarette butt, and stamping it out with his foot while replying .

soon?Still young comrade?

The armed police soldiers are upset, I have been watching you kid here for an hour, if someone really wanted to come out, he would have come out long ago.Thinking of this, the armed police soldiers stopped talking nonsense, put their hands on Chen Yang's shoulders, and shouted: "Comrade, I advise you to leave immediately, otherwise"

"Otherwise what!" Chen Yang was furious, and a wave of fame rushed up, twisted his shoulders, and fired the armed police impatiently.

An armed police soldier who didn't pay attention was slammed by Chen Yang, and he staggered back several steps before standing still. Then he heard a "click", pointed his gun at Chen Yang quickly, and shouted in a deep voice: "do not move!"

"Xiao Lu, stop!"

An anxious woman's voice came from behind a big banyan tree in the courtyard.

"Xiang Jin!"

Chen Yang heard the other party's voice, and he was overjoyed. He followed the sound and saw that Xiang Jin had arrived behind the big iron gate at some point. Under the dim light of the sentry box, her eyes were red, and her face was silent. She shed two lines of clear tears and was also looking at him.

Chen Yang ignored the little soldier, ran over in two or three steps, pulled the iron door, but found that it was locked, so he had to grab Xiang Jin's hand through the iron railing, complaining nonstop Said: "Xiang Jin, what the hell are you doing, open the door quickly and come back with me!"

Xiang Jin struggled hard twice, but Chen Yang held on too tightly, she couldn't break free, so she choked up and shouted: "Let go of me, you big liar!"

"Let go of Miss Xiang!" The little soldier of the armed police had just returned to his position, and when he saw the dispute between the two, he rushed over again and pinched Chen Yang's shoulder again.

But Chen Yang was in a daze right now, how could he let go of Xiang Jin easily, ignored the pain from his shoulder, and asked Xiang Jin repeatedly: "Xiang Jin, what did my mother tell you? Are you talking to me? Make it clear!"

Seeing a few drops of cold sweat dripping from Chen Yang's forehead, Xiang Jin was also anxious, and hurriedly said to the little soldier, "Xiao Lu, don't hit him, you, let him go quickly, he is my friend."

The little soldier was stunned, let go of Chen Yang resentfully, and walked back to the post while muttering.

"Hoohoo!"

Chen Yang bowed his waist and gasped for a few breaths before continuing, "Xiang Jin, open the door and come out, let's talk about it when we go back."

Xiang Jin didn't reply, just lowered his head, weeping silently.

"Xiang Jin, don't just cry all the time, there's something we can't talk about." Chen Yang let go of one hand, and wiped Xiang Jin's tears indiscriminately.

But no matter how Chen Yang persuaded, Xiang Jin refused to say a word, and she wiped away more and more tears.

After a while, Chen Yang suddenly felt that Xiang Jin's arm was stiff, and the crying stopped. He looked behind Chen Yang with dull eyes, and said coldly: "Chen Yang, your wife has come to look for you. You, why don't you let go!"

my wife?

Chen Yang was taken aback, and subconsciously followed Xiang Jin's eyes and looked back.

Under the bright moonlight, a female officer in a neat military uniform was slowly walking towards the two of them, but it was Chen Ruonan.

Although Chen Yang was shocked, he quickly turned around and explained: "Xiang Jin, don't talk nonsense, she is my sister, I told you before."

"Sister?" Xiang Jin burst into tears, and hissed, "Chen Yang, who do you think I am? You still want to lie to me, and you and her have been married for more than two years."

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Chen Yang yelled fiercely, interrupting Xiang Jin's words.

"Haha, am I talking nonsense?" Xiang Jin sneered twice, "I wish I was talking nonsense, but, do you know? Your mother has shown me both of your marriage certificates, can there be fake ones? ?I didn't expect, you are so mean, you've been lying to me"

Marriage certificate?

Chen Yang shook his head blankly. He could no longer hear how Xiang Jin described himself later. He slowly let go of Xiang Jin's hand, because he knew that what Xiang Jin said was true. For adoptive mothers, all it takes is a phone call.

Well, it's that simple.

"sorry!"

The moment he completely let go of his hand, Chen Yang said softly to Xiang Jin.He knew that he was no longer qualified to hold on to Xiang Jin as he did just now.

Xiang Jin couldn't control it anymore, turned around, and quickly ran into the night

"Hello, Comrade Lieutenant!"

The armed police soldier on the sentry box saluted Chen Ruonan with a standard military salute. Chen Ruonan nodded to him, returned the salute, and walked towards Chen Yang quickly.
