Chapter 10
On weekends, just after dinner, Lin Ruonan was sitting in the study room helping her daughter with homework. After sitting down for a few minutes, Lin Ruonan received a call from Luo Ying, asking her to sit in the old box of Yixin Cafe at Yanjiang intersection. Yes, Lin Ruonan greeted her husband and went out.

Lin Ruonan arrived at Yixin Cafe by taxi, and when she pushed open the door of box No. 2, she saw Luo Ying sitting inside wearing an embroidered purple dress. As soon as Luo Ying saw Lin Ruonan, she joked: "Oh, Lin Ruonan Great Township Chief, come here, being a Township Chief is different, it’s even hard to invite you out for a cup of tea.”

"Stop talking to me, you, Team Leader Luo, are one of the best people in Gan Ning. You are very popular. People who want to invite you to tea and dinner are lined up. I don't think it's too much if I have one more, and I don't think it's too many if I'm missing. Less." Lin Ruonan said angrily, although the words were a bit exaggerated, they were quite in line with the facts.The cadres of the Finance Bureau, not to mention the deputy bureau leaders, even the section chiefs and section chiefs in the department are regarded as gods by many units. Luo Ying is the leader of the discipline inspection team of the Finance Bureau and a member of the bureau team. He is very beautiful , Lively personality, official family, people who want to curry favor naturally flock to her.

"You heartless guy, don't you know what position you occupy in my heart? If you say more, I'm not much, and if I'm less, it's a lot." Luo Ying gave Lin Ruonan a white look.

"Well, I made a mistake, said something wrong, and offended our Miss Tang. Come on, I'll offer you a glass of tea instead of wine, as an apology." Lin Ruonan picked up the teacup, blinked and smiled.

"Hmph, come on, I don't know your virtue yet." Luo Ying deliberately tilted her head and cast her eyes upwards.

Lin Ruonan laughed, and Luo Ying also laughed.

"Honestly speaking, what does it feel like to be a new official? As a prince, isn't it very majestic?" Luo Ying changed her hippie expression and asked seriously.

"What are you talking about, my Miss Tang, I have a big head now. When I go to a new unit, I have to understand and be familiar with everything. The work in townships is like this. There are thousands of threads on the top and a needle on the bottom. Everything is fine. It must be resolved and implemented at the township level. As for the prestige you mentioned, it is even more out of the question. What is the prestige of a person? My country servant, now I completely understand your husband, he is also in trouble!" Lin Ruonan sighed.

"Yes, my Linda Township Chief, you really have you. Within a few days of taking office, the wind vane has turned towards my old Cheng."

"Seriously, how are you and your old Cheng doing now?"

"It's not like that yet." A disapproving expression flashed across Luo Ying's face, and then she said with a smile on her face, "Ruo Nan, let me tell you something, you have to help me make up my mind."

"What is it, so mysterious." Lin Ruonan's curiosity was aroused by Luo Ying's expression.

"He's graduating soon, and he wants to come and see me when he gets his diploma." Luo Ying's face was both happy and worried.

"Who, who is looking at you." Lin Ruonan couldn't figure it out.

"You are so stupid, that netizen, didn't I tell you last time, why are you so forgetful." Luo Ying said angrily.

"Oh, that's right, that's right, that's An Zaixu." Lin Ruonan suddenly realized that he seemed to understand, and patted himself on the head, mocking himself: "Look at my memory."

"What is An Zaixu? He looks like An Zaixu. His name is Cheng Kunpeng."

"Okay, Cheng Kunpeng, Cheng Kunpeng, what, is he coming to Ganning?"

"Yeah, you said I can't see you?"

"Are you trying to ask for my opinion? I think you want to get my support!" Lin Ruonan understood what Luo Ying was thinking, and she could tell from the look on her face that she really wanted to see this netizen, but she was afraid that she might not be able to grasp it. So I very much hope that Lin Ruonan will add another "straw" to her, so that she can go to see her as a matter of course.

"No one knows me better than Ruo Nanye!" Luo Ying stretched out her thumb and praised proudly.

"Go, stop looking at me, I won't give you any advice, you have to think about it yourself, for a woman, marriage is very important, especially in such a remote county, I don't want you to make trouble Come." Lin Ruonan said sincerely, although she knew that saying this would make Luo Ying less happy, but in her opinion, it was for Luo Ying's good.

"Marriage? What is marriage for? Its essence is to make a person happier. If marriage can't bring you happiness, why don't we stick to the empty shell marriage and wait to grow old?" Luo Ying was rather dissatisfied asked rhetorically.

"You and your old Cheng also had happiness once, but it was temporarily covered by dust and you didn't see it."

"If you don't mention him, it will be annoying. You say what we live for, isn't it just to feel the joy of life and experience all the tastes of life? Why can't a person live according to his own wishes? Live for face, responsibility, and rules. I think the saddest thing about being human is not that we have not enjoyed the achievements of human civilization, but that when we have achieved the achievements of civilization, we are not living like human beings. There are too many pleasures in living organisms, cats and dogs are happier than us humans, they are doing what they are, and we humans are not doing like people.”

"Okay, let's not discuss such a deep topic. After a while, I will go to Haizhou to hold a business signing meeting. Your old Cheng will also go?" It makes people feel a deep sense of sadness, and can never explore the way out of happiness.

"Yeah, I heard what he said, I'm going to go later."

"Did your old Cheng get a contract project?"

"I don't know much about it, so I didn't ask."

"Oh, that's how it is".

The two then chatted about some recent gossip in the county.

It was almost ten o'clock, Lin Ruonan and Luo Yingcai got up to check out, walked out of Yixin Cafe, they walked along Yanjiang Road arm in arm, there were many tables on the bank of the river, groups of four and five sat at one table, chatting and drinking .On midsummer nights, the supper shops on Yanjiang Road are extremely lively. When supermarkets and shopping malls are closed, the supper shops on Yanjiang Road are bustling with noise and excitement. Drink and enjoy delicious food.

The wind blows in waves, and Lin Ruonan feels a little cool. She raised her head and looked up at the bright night sky, and saw countless stars floating in the sky, blinking her eyes and looking down at this planet that hosts too many organisms. They must be curious. Are there any restless hearts hidden in the dense crowd under the night?The street lamps stretched out the shadows of Lin Ruonan and Luo Ying. They held hands, thinking about their own thoughts, until they parted ways at the intersection of the county town. Looking at Luo Ying's back, Lin Ruonan felt an unspeakable feeling in his heart. When she came out of the cafe, she kept thinking about Luo Ying's words, "Cats and dogs are happier than us. They are the true selves, but we are the least human." She felt that Luo Ying's words were very Profoundly, she spoke about the current living conditions of human beings. Living is simple, but after bearing too many rules and morals, it becomes complicated. People use simple and uniform methods in the self-built "spiritual graveyard" The most basic needs of too many human beings have been imprisoned.Lin Ruonan thought of herself and her marriage, are you happy?Can't say, unfortunately?Not at all, Lin Ruonan remembered the current buzzword "chicken marriage", yes, that's how it feels, tasteless.

On Monday morning, Lin Ruonan and Secretary Li Chaozheng returned to Pilong Township by car.

In the car, Li Chaozheng received a call from the county party committee, informing him that an investment promotion meeting would be held in Times Square the day after tomorrow. The participants would be the secretary or township mayor, one leader in charge of investment promotion, and one staff member.After Li Chaozheng received the call, he shook his head helplessly, then turned to Lin Ruonan in the back row and said, "Major Lin, the county will hold an investment promotion conference the day after tomorrow morning. You can reconcile the township head and Xiao Huang. I have discussed with the township head Cheng of Tongren Township. He agreed that we should act as a partnership unit and sign a contract of intent with a plastic company in Haizhou. The boss is a classmate of the township head Cheng. , intends to move inland, we will go in with a partner, at least we won't be too shabby at the signing meeting."

"Oh, yes, I'm familiar with that Mayor Cheng anyway." Lin Ruonan was relieved when he heard that the contracted unit had been confirmed, and this Mayor Cheng was Luo Ying's husband, and Lin Ruonan was also a classmate of the university. .

"Oh, it would be better if you are familiar with each other. Are you classmates?" Li Chaozheng asked suspiciously.

"Well, yes, we are college classmates, and so is his wife." Lin Ruonan smiled, she never thought that Li Chaozheng would actually find Luo Ying's husband in order to complete the task of signing a contract with the Merchants Association.

"Oh, that's how it is. No wonder. When we had dinner together last time, I asked him if he had contacted the signing project in Haizhou. He said that he had contacted him. I jokingly said that he would sign with a partner. He agreed very readily and said , He only agreed to it in Pilong Township. In any unit, he would not agree even if a knife was placed on his head. At that time, I wondered what kind of east wind was blowing. face." Li Chaozheng had an expression of sudden understanding.

"It's not my face, it's because if we take a share, it won't cause competitive pressure on their unit, and besides, doesn't the evaluation plan for investment promotion say that only one lead unit is recognized for each introduction project? Even if we go in and sign the contract, I'm afraid it's only a temporary relief."

"Yeah, this is just a temporary emergency plan. We still need to contact the contracted project to make it happen. Therefore, we must mobilize the strength of all relatives and friends during this period, collect effective information, and attract investment in a targeted manner."

"I have a high school classmate. She introduced me to a friend from Haizhou, Zhao Feiyang. He is the general manager of a listed liquor industry group. If I go there, I would like to find him. He also initially agreed to work with us. Sign a contract of intent to help us pass this barrier. Besides, even if he has no intention of investing in our county, it would be great if he could introduce one or two companies that intend to move inland. Providing effective information will also be helpful. , but I haven’t really contacted him yet.” Lin Ruonan hesitated for a while, and told Li Chaozheng what she was thinking, but in order not to arouse Li Chaozheng’s speculation, she did not say that Zhao Feiyang was her netizen, but said A friend introduced by a high school classmate.Because in the eyes of everyone, netizens, especially netizens of the opposite sex, still have a different color.

"That's good. Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, it's always good to know a few more Shanghai friends in Haizhou. Now is the age of friends and the age of information."

In the evening, after Lin Ruonan finished her meal, she walked around the corridors of the township government. As long as there was a light in any office, Lin Ruonan would go in and have a look. If there were cadres, she would sit down and chat with them. Yes, understand their work experience and family situation.Lin Ruonan's kindness and gentleness won the favor of many cadres in the village.

Walking and sitting in each office, Lin Ruonan didn't return to her room until nine o'clock in the evening.

Lin Ruonan turned on the computer after taking a shower and washing her clothes. She wanted to see if "Xianran Shiren" was online. If it was, she would have a good talk with him about going to Haizhou later.

Logged into QQ, "Xianran Shiren" was not online, Lin Ruonan was a little disappointed, thinking that things were more urgent, Lin Ruonan decided to send him a text message to ask him: Do you have time to surf the Internet?

After a while, the cell phone beeped, it was a notification tone of a text message, Lin Ruonan quickly opened the cover of the cell phone, checked the received text message, it was really his reply, it said: OK, I will come right away, you Wait for me for a while, I'm eating now.

Lin Ruonan felt very relieved, it seemed that this "leisurely man" still attached great importance to her, the text message was replied so quickly, it seemed that he was very happy for Lin Ruonan's "interruption".

Bored in every possible way, Lin Ruonan turned on the speaker, and clicked to play a song that Luo Ying strongly recommended to her, "One's Loneliness, Two's Fault"

说 好 了 一起 走
风雨相伴 不 回头

爱 你 我 去 等候

那 怕 再 过 年 秋
为 爱情 孤军 奋斗

抛开 世俗 的 信守

相信 真 爱 天长地久
nothing in the end

一 个 人 的 寂寞 两 的 的 错
爱 她 为何 还 选择 我

doomed to fail

promise
Let me fall deep into the emotional whirlpool
一 个 人 的 寂寞 两 的 的 错
分手 虽然 是 先 来说

又 耐 何躲 的 过 的 折磨
so many years of life changing
But still sad....
When the melody of this song floated in the room, the tender emotion hidden in Lin Ruonan's heart also permeated little by little. With the lingering melody, he entered into an indescribable feeling. Lin Ruonan still couldn't understand the feeling inside, But Lin Ruonan also felt heartbroken by the way too many sighs and helplessness rendered by the song. For a long time, Lin Ruonan had longed for the kind of love that turns and turns, and moths fly to the flame, but lived to thirty In the next year, no one can play the soft string of love in the depths of Lin Ruonan.

Luo Ying once asked her curiously, Ruo Nan, I have always wondered about a girl like you, have you ever loved?

Lin Ruonan smiled disapprovingly, and asked, what is love?
what is love?Love is what makes your heart beat, makes you throb, makes you crazy.Luo Ying explained to Lin Ruonan in this way.

Lin Ruonan shook her head, Luo Ying also shook her head, Lin Ruonan shook her head in a kind of helplessness, if a woman is in her thirties, but still doesn't know what palpitations and heartbeats are, what kind of sadness it is; Ying shook her head, but she didn't understand what kind of man could break Lin Ruonan's heart. She felt that Lin Ruonan didn't love him, and once he loved, he would never turn back.

While listening to the song, Lin Ruonan was thinking wildly, when she suddenly heard the notification that "Xianran Shiren" was online.

The avatar of "Xianran Shiren" flickered, and a chatter window was sent over, and he said apologetically, "I'm sorry for keeping you waiting."

"It's okay, you're not here, I'll listen to songs."

"What song are you listening to?"

"One person's loneliness is the fault of two people."

"Well, I like this song too. What's the matter with you calling me today?"

"I will come to Haizhou the day after tomorrow."

"Ah, so fast?"

"What? Not welcome?"

"No, welcome, warm welcome, come, I invite you to dinner."

"I didn't come alone, even the driver was four people."

"It's okay, please, this head office?"

"If you are poor, go." Lin Ruonan inadvertently smiled, and then sent a playful expression.

"Just you little guy, I still can't eat enough for me."

Little guy, when Lin Ruonan saw these words, he didn't feel disgusted at all, but felt a little flattered. He lived to be more than 30 years old, and he would be called a little guy by a man he had never met. It felt very affectionate and friendly. ambiguous.

"I want to drink Moutai and Wuliangye." Lin Ruonan deliberately exaggerated her appetite, and said playfully, she wanted to see the other party's reaction.

"No problem, come here, go to the best Moutai, even if you empty me out, you will never be treated badly."

"Hee hee, I haven't seen you yet, can you let me watch your video? I'm afraid that when we arrive in Haizhou, even if we face each other, we still can't know each other. You can't put a bouquet of roses on your chest Come on, shall we? I feel like this is too rustic." Lin Ruonan remembered the skits that netizens had seen before, holding a token with each other, at the agreed place, and then looked left and right at the other person holding the token?Although Lin Ruonan was meeting netizens for the first time, she also felt that the previous password contact was too old-fashioned.

"Okay, no problem, do you have one?"

Lin Ruonan didn't answer, but directly clicked on the video. After the other party accepted, a heroic face flashed in the video frame, wearing a white shirt, so resolute and so familiar.Lin Ruonan's heart beat faster for no reason, she dared to conclude that she had never seen this face before, but Lin Ruonan felt so familiar, as if she had known her for a long time.

"You are so handsome!" Lin Ruonan said sincerely, and sent an exaggerated drooling picture.

"Look at your little face, you look like a nympho, look at your whole body, and you're not soaked." "Xian Ran Shiren" smiled wickedly in the video, and Lin Ruonan stared at him in the video with a smirk , there was a brief confusion, especially when she saw the words "whole body soaked" from him, she suddenly felt a hot stream gushing down her body. This was a physiological reaction she had never had before. She knew it was an obscene phrase. He is not disgusted at all, but has an indescribable sense of intimacy.

"It's disgusting, it's not serious." Lin Ruonan sent several shy expressions in succession.

"What about yours? Why do I only see a white wall? You wouldn't let me see a white wall all night, would you?"

Lin Ruonan watched it, her smile deepened, and she decided to let him watch her video, so as not to meet him and make him feel unfamiliar.

Lin Ruonan turned the video around and pointed it at her own face.

"It's so elegant," "Xian Ran Renren" boasted, eyes full of tenderness.

Lin Ruonan involuntarily lowered her head and smiled shyly.

"That shyness is just like the lotus that comes out of the water is the most touching." "Xianran Shiren" immediately sent another compliment.

"Such a sweet mouth, it must be soaked in nectar all the time, so that you can speak well. The woman next to you will definitely be messed up by you." Lin Ruonan tilted her head, with a very playful look, she While typing on the keyboard, he stared at the deep eyes of "Xianran Shiren".

"Come on, you will know what seven meat and eight vegetables are when you come." Lian Bin's words also had a few playful winking patterns.

Lin Ruonan saw that there was something in his words, so she pretended to be angry and threw a stick at him.

"Miss you, Nannan"

Lin Ruonan felt as if she was being shocked by an electric shock, and a blunt and straightforward sentence from "Xian Ran Shiren" made her feel an unspeakable sense of sour happiness.Although it is so close to the world and thousands of miles away, Lin Ruonan feels that "Xian Ran Ren Ren" seems to be sitting opposite him, his face is within reach, and the warm breath seems to penetrate this cold screen, instantly melting two long-frozen eyes. heart of.

Lin Ruonan thought, what's wrong with me, it's unbelievable, how could I have such a strong feeling for a netizen who has only chatted a few times, and it can even be said that I don't know the other party at all.

After the video, Lin Ruonan and Zhao Feiyang unveiled the first veil of mystery, and the relationship seems to be closer.That night, Lin Ruonan and Zhao Feiyang chatted until three o'clock in the morning before reluctantly going offline.

Lin Ruonan was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, still unable to sleep, reminiscing about every word he had said on the Internet with "Xianran Shiren", so happy and intoxicated; thinking of seeing him the day after tomorrow, excited and uncontrollable, Lin Ruonan Ruonan felt that every cell in her body was rippling with happy notes.
