Remarriage for a limited time: Pure poultry ex-husbands are too difficult to deal with

Chapter 579 Returning the gift
in the reception room.

Mrs. Wu Lan was wearing formal attire, sitting on a vine lounge chair, reading a newspaper.

"Ma'am, Lieutenant Governor Xi is here." Secretary Shen said clearly in a low voice.

Mrs. Wu Lan raised her head.

"Hi, madam." Xi Zeyao immediately took a step forward, approached, saluted, and said hello very politely.

"Hello, Deputy Governor Xi." Mrs. Wu Lan smiled slightly, and raised the reception chair next to her: "Please take a seat."

"Thank you ma'am." After Xi Zeyao bowed and saluted, he carefully sat down on one side, smiling all over his face.

"Deputy Governor Xi is really well-informed. He even knows the news about me in City A." Mrs. Wu Lan gracefully put down the newspaper, half jokingly, half jokingly.

Xi Zeyao's face was a little bit astringent for a moment, as if he had been crawled over by ants.

But there was no discomfort in his shrewd eyes, on the contrary, there was even more respect and a pleasant smile.

"Madam is a hero among women, a heroine, I have always admired you, so I have always been more concerned about Madam's movements." Xi Zeyao said very respectfully.

Mrs. Wu Lan laughed when she heard the words, "Thank you for your praise, I really don't dare to accept it. I just don't know what the deputy governor wants from me?"

"Where, where!" Xi Zeyao said humbly with a flattering smile, and then asked with an unpredictable face, "Madam, I wonder if you still remember me?"

"You?" Mrs. Wu Lan was surprised when she heard this, she couldn't help raising her head, and looked at Xi Zeyao. She had seen this man once or twice on the TV news. As for knowing him, her mind Li really didn't have this memory, so he just shook his head at the moment.

Wu Zeyao knew for a long time that Mrs. Wu Lan would not remember him, but if he really wanted to mention it, he should have some memories. After all, that day was really meaningful to her and Mo Lingfeng.

He slowly took out a handbag from his arms. The handbag was a bit old-fashioned, but it was very delicate and rose red. Mrs. Wu Lan felt a little familiar when she saw it, and her eyes were fixed on the handbag for a moment.

Then Xi Zeyao slowly and carefully untied the rope on the strap, and a beautiful ladies watch from the period of the Republic of China appeared in front of Mrs. Wu Lan.

She watched carefully, her heart began to tremble.

"Why do you have this thing?" Her face changed color and her voice hoarsely asked.

Now it was Xi Zeyao's turn to take it easy, he smiled and had a very friendly attitude.

"Ma'am, when you and Young Master Mo left Mo's mansion that year, I sent you off." Xi Zeyao's words were very tactful, and he didn't say words like 'being driven away', nor did he say that he was ordered The one who drove them away used the word 'send' just right, and his attitude became more accommodating.

Madam Wu Lan's face changed, and she looked up again at the man in front of her.

This man should be slightly younger than her, probably in his sixties, which happens to be the age of high-level political figures, and his facial features are really familiar.

"So it was you that day?" Mrs. Wu Lan asked in surprise.

She remembered that when Mo Lingfeng was kicked out of Mo's house that day, Mo Lingfeng was beaten, and it was difficult for him to walk and move. It was the people around Mr. Mo who drove them out, but that person didn't make things difficult for them. The family brought them a lot of good things, including the purple clay teapot that Mo Lingfeng loved.

It turned out that Xi Zeyao used to be a person close to Mr. Mo. Thinking about it this way, his face softened a lot, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"It's me." Xi Zeyao quickly caught the change on Mrs. Wu Lan's face, and immediately admitted it. After packing the watch in a bag, he put his hands on it and said respectfully: "Madam, this is the watch from the watch that day." I took it out of the young master’s room. I left it in a hurry at the time, so I left it behind. Later, when I handed it over to Mr. Mo, he didn’t even look at it. He just told me to throw it away. I think, throw away such an exquisite watch. What a pity, I thought I would return it to you when I had the chance, so I kept it as a treasure. I really didn't expect that I had the opportunity to return it to you in person until today. Although it is a pity, I finally managed to return it to the original owner. It took a little bit of my heart out."

Xi Zeyao spoke with eloquence and emotion, very emotional.

Mrs. Wu Lan's face gradually softened, and even her voice became friendly. She reached out to take it, nodded her thanks and said, "Thank you, you really have a heart."

"It should be, it should be." For Madam Wu Lan's change, Xi Zeyao saw it in his eyes and was delighted in his heart, and responded modestly and politely.

Mrs. Wu Lan took the watch and looked at it again. It was the token of love that Mo Lingfeng gave her back then. At that time, she thought she had lost it, but unexpectedly, it was put away by someone caring.

Now that I hold it in my hand, I think of my daughter again, and my heart feels empty and uncomfortable.

"Ma'am, is there anything else on your mind?" Seeing the loneliness in Madam Wu Lan's eyes, Xi Zeyao couldn't help asking with concern.

"Hey, to tell you the truth, I came to City A this time to look for my daughter. It's been so many years and I still haven't heard from her." Mrs. Wu Lan sighed, her heart was heavy, and she said with some loss.

"Oh" Xi Zeyao gave an 'oh' sound as if surprised, nodded and said: "Yes, ma'am, it's been so many years, it's really difficult to find someone now, but don't worry, ma'am. I'm very familiar with you, and I have contacts, how about this, let me inquire for you, maybe there will be unexpected gains."

He spoke very sincerely and enthusiastically. Mrs. Wu Lan couldn't agree with him, so she smiled and nodded, "Thank you then."

For Mrs. Wu Lan, no matter what method is used, as long as she can find her daughter, this is what she wants most urgently.

Xi Zeyao was clear in his heart, as he had imagined, today's trip was not in vain, he not only saw Mrs. Wu Lan, but also gave her a favor, his goal had been achieved, so he stood up at the right time.

"Ma'am, it is my honor to meet you. For so many years, I have always wanted to visit you so that I can return this watch to you in person, but I have never had the chance. Today I finally got my wish. My heart is also relieved, and finally I have settled my mind, I will not bother you for the time being, and I will leave first." Xi Zeyao said very emotionally with a smile on his face, as if relieved from a heavy burden.

"Thank you so much, you've got your heart." Mrs. Wu Lan also smiled gratefully, "Secretary Shen, send the deputy governor off."

"Okay." Secretary Shen replied beside him.

"It's really unnecessary." Xi Zeyao turned around very modestly, remembered something, and then added, "Ma'am, you don't need to worry too much about your daughter, since I know about it today, I will pay attention. Please rest assured, I believe Mrs. Wu Lan's mother and daughter will be able to reunite."

After speaking, Xi Zeyao bowed 45 degrees to Mrs. Wu Lan, and then backed out.

"Ma'am, do you think this Xi Zeyao just wanted to give a watch?" After Xi Zeyao left, Secretary Shen looked at his back and asked softly.

In her eyes, this Xi Zeyao looked too shrewd, and he was now in a sensitive period of competing for governor. At this time, he came to offer a watch to Mrs. Wu Lan, and he was suspected of flattery, but he was very old and cunning. Well, I came here today, and I didn't ask for anything clearly. On the surface, I really just came to return Mrs. Wu Lan's watch as a token of love.

Being able to use this trick to win over Mrs. Wu Lan's heart, one can imagine that this Xi Zeyao is indeed a shrewd politician with high IQ and high means.

Now Mrs. Wu Lan owed him a favor.

Mrs. Wu Lan took off her glasses, squinted her phoenix eyes, and there was a slight smile on the corner of her mouth. How could she not understand the intentions of these people after spending her whole life in the officialdom? For nothing.

"Xiao Shen, if Xi Zeyao can keep a token of love between me and Mo Lingfeng for so many decades, then this person's scheming is not ordinary, and such an impenetrable way of being and thinking Only these ambitious politicians can have it, tell me, how could such a scheming person just rush over from the capital to return this watch to me?" Mrs. Wu Lan said with an inscrutable smile.

Secretary Shen nodded straightly.

"Hey, I just didn't expect me to come to City A this time, and my hopes have come to nothing." Mrs. Wu Lan thought about the DNA, and the expression on her face became even more unpredictable, "Well, arrange a time for me, I'll see you tomorrow night I'm going to see Grandma Ruan, and then I'm going to head home first."

"Okay." Secretary Shen knew that the current situation was tense, and this was the only way to go, so she quickly agreed.

Mrs. Wu Lan had been out for too long this time, and it was time to go back, otherwise there would be more things piled up.

"Dad, how are you? Have you seen Mrs. Wu Lan?" Xi Zeyao had just walked outside to the elevator when Xi Yuxuan, who was waiting outside, greeted him and asked nervously.

Xi Zeyao chuckled, "Boy, don't you look at who is here, if you can't see him, then I'm here, she will definitely see me, otherwise this life will be in vain."

When Xi Yuxuan heard this, a surprised expression appeared on his face.

"Then Dad, what did you guys talk about? Do you want to ask her for help?" Xi Yuxuan couldn't help but asked hurriedly.

Xi Zeyao glanced at him, shook his head, and walked towards the elevator.

Xi Yuxuan followed closely behind.

"Yuxuan, you are too young, you really need to study hard in this area." After the elevator door closed, Xi Zeyao said earnestly.

Xi Yuxuan froze for a moment, a little confused.

"You, you really don't know anything about the sophistication of the world." Xi Zeyao had a displeased look on his face, "If you make a request the first time you meet someone, how can they treat you well? No matter what you say, you must first Cultivate the relationship."

Xi Yuxuan suddenly realized when he heard this, and couldn't help but nodded, "That is, it's just Dad, we are running out of time, if we don't mention it now, I'm afraid it will be too late."

"No, this time I made Mrs. Wu Lan completely cut off her hope of finding a girl. If nothing goes wrong, she will go back tomorrow. As for the next time, I can personally tell her the news and make her very excited. In this way, she will accept my love again." Xi Yuxuan said schemingly, and then laughed.

"Tell her personally?" Xi Yuxuan asked in surprise, "Are you going to tell her personally that Wu Xiuping is her daughter?"

After hearing this, Xi Zeyao smiled disapprovingly.

"Then why not? After she leaves this time, she doesn't know when she will come to City A next time. At that time, my big event has been accomplished, so why not tell her." He pouted, not thinking Said willingly.

Xi Yuxuan was stunned for a moment, but when he came back to his senses, he understood what Xi Zeyao meant and smiled too.

"Yuxuan, let me tell you, I didn't come in vain this time. Mrs. Wu Lan will definitely accept my favor today." Xi Zeyao said with some pride.

"Really?" Xi Yuxuan was surprised.

"Of course." Xi Zeyao laughed, "At least the next time I have something to see her, she will be embarrassed and refuse."

It was definitely an unforgettable event for Mrs. Wu Lan that he coincidentally gave her a watch today. He was confident in that.

When Du Yuxuan heard this, he felt confident and relieved a lot.

As long as they can't recognize each other temporarily, it's a good thing, at least it buys them some time.
