Late at night, Qin Lan was lying on the bed and tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
During the day, she searched almost everyone she knew, but no one could help her rescue Wu Yong, and the news revealed by some made her even more worried.
Some people say that the city will carry out a big operation this time, arresting all the gangsters who do evil things and sentence them, and all the others involved will be dealt with. Wu Yong must be in danger this time, so he asked Qin Lan to find a way to spend money to get people.
Some people also say that this operation is not to crack down on several criminal gangs at all, but to follow the clues and arrest those corrupt officials who do not do personnel. Wu Yong was just implicated, and at most he would be released if he was imprisoned for a few months, so that Qin Lan would not worry.
The second type of speech may be closer to the truth, but Qin Lan has no way to tell, and it is even more impossible to sit and do nothing to wait for the result. Moreover, even if Wu Yong was released in the end, is it for people to treat the detention center? Thinking of the torture that Wu Yong might suffer in it, Qin Lan was anxious, but had no choice but to do anything.
After calling Song Zicheng during the day but not getting through, Qin Lan lost the courage to seek help from the other party, and was also frightened by the idea that he had such an idea. Is he really willing to sacrifice for Wu Yong or subconsciously he did not think that meeting Song Zicheng's conditions was unacceptable to him.
She didn't dare to continue thinking. The bottom line she had struggled to stick to seemed to no longer exist. She could give up sticking to the principles at any time. She didn't know if she could still keep Song Zicheng away if she saw him again.
Qin Lan didn't know how she was caught in this contradictory situation. If Song Zicheng was the kind of playboy who liked to play with women, no matter how rich and powerful he was, no matter how he was coercive or tempted him, he would not have any other thoughts except to increase his disgust towards him.
But Song Zicheng always has a kind of demeanor that makes him moved. He is frank and does not hide his feelings towards him. He is gentleman and never easily violates himself. He has principles and never uses various means to make him submit. Instead, he is like a person who is in love for the first time, carefully holding his heart and waiting for him to feel it.
Of course, Qin Lan didn't know Song Zicheng's plan for Wu Yong behind his back. In fact, even if he knew, Qin Lan had nothing to say. What Song Zicheng used was only the weakness of human nature, which gave Wu Yong the possibility of becoming bad. Everyone's path was chosen by themselves, and it was only a way to comfort themselves.
Qin Lan thought about Wu Yong's affairs and Song Zicheng's relationship with her. She was so confused that she couldn't sleep. She put on her pajamas and leaned against the head of the bed, holding her cell phone to chat with her sister Qin Yue. Since she won the last dance competition, she seemed to have become very busy all of a sudden and had less contact with her.
She just sent a text message with her cell phone to see if Qin Yue had time to chat, and when she heard someone knocking on the door outside, she was shocked and got out of bed quickly, hurriedly left the bedroom and came to the door, and asked: Who?A middle-aged man gasping sounded outside the door: It's me, Qin Lan, please open the door quickly, I have something to ask you.There was a little anxious and uneasy in the voice.
Qin Lan was stunned for a moment because she heard that it was Wu Yong's father Wu Song's voice outside. She didn't have time to think too much, so she quickly opened the door and let the neighbors hear the bad influence in the middle of the night.
A thin old man in his fifties stood outside the door. Seeing the door open, he hurriedly walked in, rushed to the bedroom and looked at it, turned his head and asked Qin Lan anxiously: Where is Wu Yong, where has he been? I went to the bar to find him. Why didn’t the bar open today? I called him and turned off the phone. What happened?
It turned out that Wu Song went out for a walk in the evening and happened to pass by the old streets and alleys. He remembered that his son had said some time ago that he opened a bar here called Old Love, so he decided to go over and see how the business was. If the business was booming, he wanted his relatives to come and help, and he would use his own people to rest assured about his own business.
But unexpectedly, I finally found the door of the old Love Bar under the various signs of lights and wine, but found that the bar was pitch black and there was a seal at the door. Wu Song felt something was wrong and quickly called his son, but it couldn't be reached. He didn't have Qin Lan's mobile phone number, so he hurried to ask what was going on.
Qin Lan didn't expect that things were so coincidental. Wu Yong's bar was discovered by his father-in-law as soon as it was blocked. He couldn't hide it anymore, so he sighed and said: Dad, don't worry, listen to me slowly telling you that something might happen to the person who opened a bar with someone else, so the Public Security Bureau asked Wu Yong to find out about the situation and came back in a day or two. I was afraid that you would not call you if you were worried.
Although Qin Lan wanted to coax it over easily, Wu Song knew that things were not that simple, and his son's problem must be more serious. He had just walked in a hurry and climbed up the stairs. He was a little panting and anxious, and suddenly he turned black in front of him and almost fell down.
Qin Lan was startled and quickly helped her father-in-law lie down on the bed and told him not to move. She hurried to the kitchen to pour a cup of warm water. She returned to the bedroom with the water cup and saw Wu Song covering her stomach and moaning constantly. She quickly put down the water cup and asked, Dad, are you okay, are you feeling uncomfortable in your stomach?
Or I'll take you to the hospital for a look.
When he saw Qin Lan, he was about to call an ambulance. Wu Song endured the pain and gritted his teeth and said, "Don't call, I'm an old problem, I'll just lie down for a while. Do you have painkillers here and don't find some for me?"
Qin Lan knew that Wu Song was reluctant to spend money, and she didn't go to the hospital when she was sick. She just went to the clinic at the entrance to see the doctor and prescribed some medicine and was done as soon as she took it. So she quickly found a few tablets of aspirin for Wu Song to take. Seeing that Wu Song's face slowly relieved, she breathed a sigh of relief. If something happened to her father-in-law at this time, I still don't know what my mother-in-law would think.
Wu Song came to his senses and was about to continue asking about Wu Yong with Qin Lan, but his eyes fell on Qin Lan's chest inadvertently, but he was stunned. He quickly turned his head and looked elsewhere, saying a little embarrassedly, Qin Lan, it's cold at night, you should wear more clothes and don't catch a cold.
It turned out that Qin Lan took off her bra when she went to bed, and she was wearing only a white suspender vest. She only put on her pajamas when she came out to open the door but forgot to tie the buttons. She was busy talking just now and didn't pay attention. At this moment, the two were close. Wu Song raised his eyes and could see Qin Lan's tantalizing spring light from the open gap of her pajamas.
Qin Lan's face turned red after brushing, and she hurriedly turned around and tied up the buttons of her pajamas, secretly scolding herself for being confused, how could she forget to put on the clothes and open the door, and in front of her father-in-law. It would be bad if she let her father-in-law misunderstand that she had done on purpose. She still remembered the dirty things her father-in-law had done to her.
The air in the bedroom also seemed to freeze. Seeing Qin Lan's back to him and not dared to turn around, Wu Song sighed helplessly. In fact, he knew very well what he was in his daughter-in-law's heart. He did do those things a little confused at the beginning, and he didn't blame his daughter-in-law for treating him like this.
Just now, he actually hesitated whether to remind Qin Lan. After all, as a father-in-law, this is not appropriate. If Qin Lan misunderstood, he can't explain it clearly. But if he doesn't say it, it will be even worse than a beast. So he decided to remind Qin Lan in a tactful way, but he didn't expect the other party's reaction to be so great.
If it were normal, Wu Song would definitely leave this place of trouble quickly so that his daughter-in-law would not misunderstand what he thought. But now he was thinking about his son and had to ask clearly. After a while, he sighed and said, Qin Lan, I know that you have always looked down on me as a father-in-law in your heart, so after you moved out, I never dared to come here once, just because you were afraid that you would think too much.
Hearing Wu Song's words, Qin Lan thought of the things that were hot, and she was suspicious that her father-in-law suddenly mentioned this. Although she felt that it was inappropriate to stay alone with her father-in-law so late, she was worried about Wu Song's health, and secondly, Wu Yong had to explain to him about Wu Yong's affairs, so she didn't say anything and listened quietly to Wu Song's words.
Everything was difficult at the beginning. Wu Song said the previous words with difficulty. Suddenly, he felt that the things that had been holding in his heart for a long time were released, and he wanted to tell Qin Lan what he was thinking.
Qin Lan, I know that I am worse than animals in doing things. I am sorry for you. After you moved out, I regretted it. Why can’t I control myself? Why are you so confused?
I know you have never told Wu Yong or his mother about the things I did. I am grateful to you. You have saved my old face, otherwise I really can't live anymore. You are a good daughter-in-law, and my father-in-law did something wrong.
As he was talking, Wu Song started crying in a daze, and suddenly reached out and slapped himself hard and said, "I'm not a human, I'm not a human."
Seeing this, Qin Lan had to stop Wu Song's movements quickly. Seeing that Wu Song's face was already red and swollen, his heart softened. Although he still couldn't let go of those things, he was Wu Yong's father after all.
After thinking about it, Qin Lan said helplessly, Dad, why bother you? The matter has passed. If you don’t mention it, I will forget it. Besides, you can’t blame you alone. Sometimes I don’t pay enough attention to it, and I also have a great responsibility.
When Wu Song heard Qin Lan's words, she burst into tears and shook her head and said, "It's all my fault that I have no ability and have never made any money to prepare for you to get married. If I don't live together, these things will not happen. Alas, I'm useless.
Seeing his father-in-law's remorse, Qin Lan didn't know what to say to comfort him. After all, his behavior was indeed inappropriate, and he couldn't accept it if he changed to a daughter-in-law. He had already done it very patiently, but it would be fine. Everyone should make it clear so that they would not feel uncomfortable when they meet in the future.
However, Wu Song took all the blame on him, which made Qin Lan begin to reflect on whether he was doing something wrong. After all, living under the same roof, how can you not meet? Although Wu Song is his father-in-law, he is also a normal man. Every day, he will inevitably have some thoughts when he sees his young and beautiful daughter-in-law swaying in front of him in cool clothes.
Besides, Wu Song did not really do anything bad to him. Many things are too sensitive to him, so he feels that his father-in-law did it on purpose. In fact, it seems that it is just a subconscious reaction of a man. When his husband goes shopping, he will involuntarily peek at other women. Can it be concluded that Wu Yong has a low character?
After understanding this, Qin Lan suddenly felt relieved. If her father-in-law was really such a person, she would not have specifically reminded herself to put on her clothes just now. Even if he took the opportunity to peek, he could not blame him, but he could only blame himself for being careless.
Qin Lan was not the kind of petty woman. Once she accepted her father-in-law's explanation, her attitude quickly became natural and she no longer avoided like in the past. Although she was a little shy, she still asked firmly, Dad, I have something I have never understood. Since you have that need, why don't you tell your mother and use my underwear to solve it?
Although it is inappropriate and impolite to ask her father-in-law about such privacy questions, this matter has always been a knot in her heart. If she doesn't understand, she feels that she will never be able to face Wu Song normally. Moreover, after three years of marriage, she is not the young wife who just got married back then, and she can face many sensitive topics calmly.
Hearing Qin Lan's questioning, Wu Song blushed and hesitated for a long time and finally said with a heart, "Oh, at this point, I'm not afraid of you being a joke to the younger generation. Your mother and I haven't slept in the same quilt for almost ten years. I'm also a man, why do you think I have such a miserable life?"
It turned out that Wu Yong's mother was very cold to sex. Except for having a normal couple life with Wu Song for a while, she would never take the initiative to be intimate with Wu Song unless Wu Song strongly requested her. Even when she was intimate, Wu Song still felt boring.
But he was a normal man after all, and it was uncomfortable to not be vented. As a result, Wu Yong lived with them after getting married. Every night he listened to the seductive moans coming from the next room, which made Wu Song unable to fall asleep.
That day, Wu Song originally wanted to help Wu Yong and the others clean up the room, but accidentally found Qin Lan's underwear thrown on the bed. He picked it up and tried to solve it secretly. But Wu Yong's mother discovered it and mistakenly thought that Qin Lan had deliberately thrown it on the bed, and Wu Song had no way to explain.
When the matter was made clear, both of them felt much more relaxed, but thinking that Wu Yong was still in a heavy mood. Wu Song had no good idea after discussing for a long time. He just said that the government would definitely not accuse the good people. If Wu Yong did not do anything illegal, he would definitely be released, so that Qin Lan would not be too worried.
Qin Lan thought about it and felt that what her father-in-law said made sense. She asked him not to talk to her mother-in-law when she went back, so as not to have any trouble after Wu Yong's mother knew about it.
Wu Song knew his wife's temper and understood the reason why Qin Lan was worried. He agreed to keep it secret with Wu Yong's mother. Seeing that it was getting late, he hurriedly left. Although he was still worried about his son's affairs, the accidental removal of the misunderstanding between him and his daughter-in-law was an unexpected gain, and his steps seemed much lighter.
Qin Lan felt a little exhausted when she returned to the bedroom and lay down on the bed to go to bed. But she found that Qin Yue had sent several text messages asking herself what she was busy with recently and whether she had thought about when to go to Hainan with her.
Qin Lan was too lazy to chat with her sister anymore, so she sent two words to sleep, threw her phone aside and closed her eyes, and soon fell asleep.
I was confused and felt like I was sitting on a boat, floating in the sea, and there was a rope pulling to both sides, one end was Wu Yong and the other end was Song Zicheng.
Both of them tried their best, but they were evenly matched. Qin Lan sat on the boat and swayed left and right, but she didn't know who she hoped to win. Suddenly, the rope on Wu Yong's side broke, the boat suddenly lost its balance, and he fell into the cold sea in an instant.
Qin Lan woke up in a flash and turned over and sat up to find that she was sweating in a cold sweat. But when she remembered that terrible dream, she still felt scared. She looked at it at twelve o'clock, but she didn't dare to continue sleeping, so she had to sit on the bed with her knees in a daze.
Qin Lan did not fall asleep in a daze until the second half of the night. When she woke up in the morning, she felt dizzy, but she still struggled to go to work in the unit. The more she was at this time, the less she could not fall down, and let others guess something was wrong.
On the bus, Qin Lan suddenly received a text message from Gao Ping. In the text message, Gao Ping said that she had just learned about her husband Wu Yong and told her not to worry too much. If she had any difficulties, she could ask herself for help.
Looking at the phone, Qin Lan frowned slightly. Yesterday she called many of her classmates, but she deliberately avoided Gao Ping, just because she didn't want to have any contact with him anymore. She didn't expect that he would know so soon, and she didn't know who told Gao Ping so enthusiastically.
Qin Lan thought about it and replied to Gao Ping, but she only had the word "Thank you". She didn't know and didn't want to say more to Gao Ping.
When he walked into the shoe and sock factory, Qin Lan greeted the people passing by, and his heart slowly relaxed. It seemed that no one knew about the incident. Song Yuanhai was still a trustworthy person.
Seeing Qin Lan walk into the office as usual, Song Yuanhai, who was dazed in his seat, was a little surprised. He felt that Qin Lan should go to find someone to help at this time, but he didn't expect that she would come to work as if nothing had happened.
When Qin Lan saw Song Yuanhai, Zhan Yan smiled and said that she was fine. No matter what Song Yuanhai thought about him, if it weren't for him yesterday, he might have been confused and didn't know what he would have done.
In the shoe and sock factory, she felt that only Song Yuanhai could talk, and she would not feel any pressure. Since she was promoted unexpectedly, her colleagues have gradually alienated her, and the logistics department people were originally not in the same circle as her.
Although because of Hu Liang's affairs, everyone is a little awe of Qin Lan's background and basically cooperates with her work, not as perfunctory as before, but she always keeps a distance from Qin Lan in private. Qin Lan tries to integrate into the other party's circle, but finds that it means that she has to give up her principles and adapt to the unspoken rules of this circle.
Perhaps this is not a difficult task for many people. This society's unspoken rules exist everywhere. People who do not understand the unspoken rules will only be unable to move forward and are excluded. But for Qin Lan, she is unwilling to do this, so what is the difference between herself and those she has despised in the past?
Then, Huang Siming, director of Qinke, walked in from the office door and saw Qin Lan a little surprised. After asking about the situation, he said, Qin Lan, come on, I have something to talk to you.
Qin Lan and Song Yuanhai looked at each other, not knowing what Huang Siming had to do to find him, so they quickly followed the other party to the section chief's office, thinking that he had left his work before he finished his work yesterday, and didn't know how Huang Siming arranged it. Could it be that he wanted to criticize himself because of this dissatisfaction.
Who knew that Huang Siming did not talk about work at all, but instead asked Qin Lan about warmth. When asked about Qin Lan’s family, Qin Lan was a little flattered, but was puzzled. Finally, seeing that Huang Siming still did not talk about the main topic, he couldn’t help asking, Director, what are you asking me for?
Well, haha.
Huang Siming smiled, picked up the teacup and drank a sip of strong tea and said, "That's right, since you came to the logistics department, you have been proactive in your work and a rigorous attitude. It can be said that it has opened up a new situation in our logistics work. Ah. Yesterday, the factory director asked about your situation, and I also made a report. The factory director said that good comrades like you must use it, so... Qin Lan's heart suddenly sank. Huang Siming probably said nothing good. She knew that what Huang Siming wanted to say now is the key point, but she had long been mentally prepared and insisted on her principles. I don't know how many people she offended. As the deputy director, I'm afraid she had done it all. It's okay, she didn't think about being a leader, and at worst she could just go back to the workshop and continue to do her job.
Huang Siming glanced at Qin Lan's somewhat sad expression, and he didn't know what it felt. If it were himself twenty years ago, he would definitely support Qin Lan's approach without hesitation.
However, the older you are, the more worries you have to consider, and you have to consider many practical issues. You can only say happily. The factory manager said that our factory is a state-owned enterprise and the state is under the management of the state, and the city also needs more outstanding young cadres. Therefore, it is planned to select a group of reserve cadres from each enterprise for training. It takes half a year. This is a rare opportunity. The competition in the factory is very fierce. Finally, the factory manager made a decision and set the list. There are only four people in total.
Qin Lan was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that such news was actually the news, but this should be considered good news. Ah, why did Huang Siming say so embarrassing and his expression was so solemn. For a moment, she didn't know whether this was good or bad.
Huang Siming smiled and said, Qin Lan has worked hard during this period, and your lover must have complained a lot. If you participate in the training, you will have no time. This way, you won’t have to go to work from now on. Just go to the training directly, and your salary and bonus will be calculated as per your calculation.
When Qin Lan went back and handed over the work with Song Yuanhai, Huang Siming sat down and sighed. On the surface, it was of course a good thing to participate in the city's reserve cadres training, but in Huang Siming's view, this was just a means of the factory director, and the real purpose was to get Qin Lan away from the logistics department.
In fact, shortly after Qin Lan started to take charge of the warehouse, the factory manager regretted it a little. This woman was not in the limelight and did not understand the world at all. She wanted to change her leisure position, but was afraid of offending the person she said hello. After thinking hard for a long time, there was no good idea. She just received the document from the city and took the opportunity to start an article. In this way, even if the other party asked about it in the future, she could say that she was thinking about Qin Lan's future. Qin Lan would return to the office in confusion and talk about Huang Siming's meaning to Song Yuanhai. Song Yuanhai reacted very quickly and immediately understood the real intention of the factory, but was inconvenient to tell Qin Lan that she could only congratulate Qin Lan on her bright future. She must not forget herself if she is developed in the future.
In fact, Song Yuanhai had already learned about the city's documents from a friend, but that friend also said that this time it was mainly to promote some relatives. Song Yuanhai's heart was cold. He had participated in similar training classes before, and the city's slogans were shouted very well every time, saying that it was only talent, but as a result, he always studied with the prince, so he was not optimistic about Qin Lan's participation in the training this time.
After half a year, Qin Lan's best result was to return to the shoe and sock factory in shame and continue to be her deputy director of the logistics department. Of course, this is something the factory manager doesn't want to see, so it is very likely that Qin Lan will go to training there, and the factory manager will immediately appoint a new deputy director. I believe there will be another battle at that time.
However, Song Yuanhai was not worried about Qin Lan. As long as the relationship behind Qin Lan was still there, the factory manager would not dare to let her suffer grievances. He could only arrange it to other leisure departments at the same level. Perhaps that would be a good result for Qin Lan and others, but he lost the opportunity to continue to contact Qin Lan.
In fact, during the period when he was in contact with Qin Lan, Song Yuanhai felt that Qin Lan's personality was actually not suitable for development in the career of the officialdom. He had no scheming and was very principled. It was difficult for a woman to go on the career of the officialdom, let alone a beautiful woman, I don't know how many hurdles she would face.
There was once a saying in the city that a woman can be promoted, either the man who gave birth to her is very good or the man who slept with her is very good.
Although it is a bit biased, it is enough to show that women have to go far in their careers and must have a big shot behind them.
Song Yuanhai didn't think there was a truly powerful figure behind Qin Lan, otherwise Qin Lan wouldn't stay in such a place at all. There would be no problem finding one in the city to stuff it in. You can get a considerable salary without doing anything every day.
It turned out that he also suspected that Qin Lan might be the mistress of a real power figure. He didn't want to be too eye-catching, but he wanted Qin Lan to make some extra money so that he would arrange for Qin Lan to have a good position. However, through his contact with Qin Lan, Qin Lan's actions and her personality dispelled Song Yuanhai's speculation.
Maybe it's just a relative of Qin Lan. I didn't hear others say that a young man who called himself Qin Lan's cousin often came to see her, but whether Qin Lan is a chaste woman or someone else's mistress, all this has nothing to do with Song Yuanhai.
Song Yuanhai could only watch the gentle and elegant woman packed her things, chuckled and said take care of herself, then disappeared at the door of the office, but when they met again, they didn't know when it would be.
Qin Lan did not have as sad as Song Yuanhai. Standing at the gate of the shoe and sock factory, she looked back at the big words flying and phoenix, but she felt confused. She didn't know where she should go at this moment. When she went home, she felt even more lonely in the house.
After thinking for a long time, Qin Lan felt that she would call her sister. At this time, she really wanted to hear Qin Yue talk about the lively things in their school. Only in this way would she forget her troubles.
The phone was quickly connected, and Qin Yue's sweet voice as crisp as a bean was heard there, but it was not as careless as usual, but it was a bit deliberate and steady.
Qin Lan asked her sister if she was busy now, and she wanted to go over and talk to her, and if she was busy, she would forget it.
Qin Yue smiled and said, "Sister, I'm not busy, but now a friend invites me to have tea, but he is the most busy person."
I don’t know if they want to see you. Ah, a man’s voice vaguely sounded from the other end of the phone, and then I heard Qin Yue explaining something in a low voice with the other party. Qin Lan was suspicious and didn’t know who Qin Lan was with. Since she saw Qin Lan and Zhang Peng last time, she felt that Zhang Peng was quite suitable for her sister, so she didn’t want Qin Yue to step on two boats, hurt Zhang Peng and hurt herself.
After waiting for a while, Qin Yue said with a smile, "Sister, my friend wants to see you, and said that it is fate that I met. I want to invite you to have a meal together, but I don't know if you are willing to give me a favor."
Qin Lan is in a bad mood now, just wanting to chat with her sister alone to relieve her depression. She is unwilling to meet any strange man, but she is worried about her sister, so she hesitated for a moment and agreed.
Qin Lan regretted it a little. Maybe the other party was just an ordinary classmate of her sister. What is it like to rush over like this? Is it considered meeting the parents? I am also too worried about my sister.
She wanted to call Qin Yue again and said that she had something to do, but she felt that it was impolite. She had been struggling for a long time and decided to go over and say hello, and then find an excuse to leave.
According to the address mentioned by Qin Yue, Qin Lan took a taxi to a quiet alley. After getting off the car, Qin Lan looked around. There were two rows of tall sycamore trees on both sides of the road, with few vehicles and pedestrians, which seemed very deserted.
Qin Lan saw the tall red wall opposite, which looked very old, but she didn't know where it was. Although she had lived in Jiangcheng for six or seven years, she usually went home from work and rarely went shopping, so she was not very familiar with many places.
Now I have time, but I no longer feel like shopping. Thinking that Wu Yong was still under investigation somewhere, Qin Lan was in a depressed mood and wanted to turn around and go home and hide in the quilt and cry, although doing so would not solve any problem.
But at this time, Qin Yue called to urge Qin Lan to come over quickly, as if she was worried that the man would be unhappy if he waited for a long time.
Qin Lan had to walk into the alley, but today she dressed up specially in order to make herself look more energetic. Not only did she wear her favorite dress, but she also changed into a pair of black high heels, and her legs were flesh-colored stockings. In addition to being beautiful, she also showed a hint of sexyness.
The place where Qin Yue and his friends drank tea was called Yiran Teahouse, which was an inconspicuous storefront. Qin Lan finally found it. When he walked in, he found that there was a unique world inside. The overall decoration of the teahouse was very elegant. There were a few calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall and a few rattan chairs at the door. It was simple but very comfortable for people to see.
Qin Yue poked her head out of the stairs on the second floor, waved to Qin Lan and whispered, "Sister, come up."
In such a simple and elegant place, her temperament couldn't help but restrain herself a lot.
Qin Lan walked up to the second floor with a creaking wooden staircase, and her eyes lit up. One side of this place was a corridor, and the outside was full of lush trees, which seemed to be a corner of the park, and the other side was a room with bamboo curtains hanging on it.
It is indeed a good place to drink tea.
Qin Yue walked in with a smile and said with a sweet smile, "Uncle, my sister is here, two beauties have dinner with you, you should be satisfied."
There was a teahouse in the room, with tea sets on it. A middle-aged man was holding a tea cup to taste tea. When he saw Qin Lan walking in with Qin Yue, he put down the tea cup and slowly stood up, stretched out his broad palm and smiled at Qin Lan, "Hello Qin Lan, I am Tan Zhenglong."
Qin Lan was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but hold the other person's hand, but her mind was a little unresponsive. She thought that her sister's friend would be a young man in her twenties, but she didn't expect that she was a middle-aged man about the same age as her father. No wonder Qin Yue spoke a little restrainedly.
Feeling that the other party's hand was very powerful, not the kind of perfunctory handshake, but the strength would not cause misunderstandings to Qin Lan. Qin Lan quickly relaxed and said with a smile, "Hello, Uncle Tan, I'm so embarrassed to bother you. I haven't seen Qin Yue for a long time, so I just wanted to talk to her."
Qin Yue is even more open-minded, and it is impossible to find a man of his father's generation. Besides, Qin Lan saw that the other party's demeanor and conversation were like the kind of person with status, so the worries on the road just now disappeared. As she spoke, she thought in her heart how could her sister know such a person.
Tan Zhenglong's expression was a little stiff. I don't know if it was because Qin Lan called him uncle. In fact, his age was only nearly twenty years apart from Qin Lan. Qin Yue didn't have any psychological burden to call him like that.
Qin Yue cheered excitedly, pointed at Tan Zhenglong and said, "Uncle, you lost. You also said that I, a college student, don't care about the development of our Jiangcheng City. My sister has worked for many years, and she is still as confused as me."
Humph, I think you are just too confident.
Too confident means being arrogant, and being arrogant means making mistakes.
Tan Zhenglong's face turned red a little. He looked at Qin Lan awkwardly, touched his nose and smiled bitterly, "Your sister's mouth is so amazing. I think you can be a reporter in the future."
Qin Lan couldn't understand what the two of them were saying. She was confused but embarrassed to ask and had to agree. At the invitation of Tan Zhenglong, she sat down in a daze and had tea with the two of them, forgetting that she was trying to find an excuse to leave.
Although Qin Lan, an uninvited guest, was still very active in the room. However, most of the time, Qin Yue kept talking, while Tan Zhenglong was listening, while Qin Lan looked at the strange combination, thinking about how two people who were completely incompatible got together.
Finally, Qin Lan couldn't help asking, Uncle Tan, are you a professor in Qin Yue's school?
Qin Lan thinks this way with a certain basis. Qin Yue's scope of activities is mainly in universities, so the people she can contact are basically students or teachers in the school, and the other party has a scholarly temperament.
A look of remembrance flashed through Tan Zhenglong's eyes, and he took a sip of tea slowly, before saying with a smile, "Oh, how did you see it?" It's not that Qin Yue told you before.
After observation, he found that Qin Lan really didn't know her identity, so he decided to continue hiding her identity with interest.
Qin Yue said disdainfully, "Uncle, you are wrong." He lied to me at the beginning, but now he wants to lied to my sister again. I'll tell you that there is no way, and I won't say it if you don't say it."
Sister, think about it carefully. His name is Tan Zhenglong, and he is very famous in Jiangcheng City.
Seeing his sister's look of a look of regret, Qin Lan carefully searched her limited memories of celebrities named Tan in her mind. The singers don't look like them, and the hosts are not right. Is it an Internet celebrity?
Finally, Qin Yue had to remind Qin Lan, sister, don’t think too much. He actually works in the Jiangcheng City Government and specializes in legal work. You can think about it carefully.
In fact, Jiangcheng News occasionally reports about Tan Zhenglong, but the frequency is definitely not as frequent as the municipal party secretary and mayor. However, after the thunder operation recently began, Tan Zhenglong's appearances have gradually increased, and he has gradually become familiar to the people of Jiangcheng. Unfortunately, Qin Lan does not have the habit of watching Jiangcheng News every day. Otherwise, under Qin Yue's reminder, he would definitely think that the middle-aged man in front of him was Tan Zhenglong, the third person in Jiangcheng, the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee.
Although Qin Lan still didn't remember it, she couldn't help but feel moved when she heard that the other party was working in the government and was working in the law. When she thought of Wu Yong's incident, she couldn't help but say to Tan Zhenglong, Uncle Tan, you work in the government. I have something I want to trouble you. I don't know if I can ask someone for help.
He then told me about Wu Yong being taken to investigate.
After listening to Qin Lan's narration, Tan Zhenglong frowned slightly. Unexpectedly, the Thunder Action would actually affect Qin Yue's brother-in-law. He didn't know the specific situation now. Moreover, his identity was particularly inconvenient to express his opinion, so he could only pick up a teacup and take a sip, and glance at Qin Yue.
Although Qin Yue is careless, she is actually very sensible. She immediately knew that Tan Zhenglong was inconvenient to answer, so she quickly said to Qin Lan, "Sister, don't make things difficult for uncles." You see, he is like a leader, but he is actually an ordinary staff member and has no status in the government. However, you don't even tell me about my brother-in-law's affairs. Even if I can't help, I can at least give you an idea.
Seeing Qin Yue helping him to help him relieve the siege but did not forget to sarcastically, Tan Zhenglong almost laughed out loud. This girl is now increasingly disregarding herself. The restraint and anxiety when she first learned about her identity have long disappeared, but this made him very pleased. He really doesn't want to lose a friend like Qin Yue.
Although the Thunder Operation points to black forces, it is inevitable that innocent people will be involved in the operation, and even many people wandering in the gray area will be affected. Most of these people will be released, but a more complicated procedure will be taken.
After thinking about it carefully, Tan Zhenglong decided to help Qin Yue's sister solve this problem. This was not only to satisfy Qin Yue, but more importantly, he liked Qin Lan. A woman with a completely different personality from Qin Yue but equally kind, her husband would definitely not be a serious crime.
Although such subjective conjectures are a bit far-fetched, Tan Zhenglong has the right to be willful, not to mention that his original intention of organizing the Thunder Operation was not to clean up the gray forces in Jiangcheng City. He could not do it, so he decided to violate the principle of one time.
He gave Qin Yue a comforting look, and Tan Zhenglong cleared his throat and pondered, Qin Lan, you don’t have to worry, we all have to believe in the law and the government. If your husband really has no problems, he will definitely go home safely. Let’s do this. I’ll give Xiaoyue a call, you can contact the other party and report my name.
After saying that, he stood up and stretched out his hand to Qin Lan and said sincerely, "Sorry, I still have something to do, so I can't invite you to dinner. I will officially invite you and Xiaoyue to dinner if you have time another day."
He was not making excuses to leave, but Qin Lan's incident made him suddenly realize that there might be many trends of expansion in the Thunder Operation, which would lead the spearhead of the action to other places. This is something he did not want to see. The blow to the Brotherhood and other evil forces was just an introduction.
He wants to reverse this trend immediately and concentrate his firepower to prepare for the final blow.
After Tan Zhenglong left, Qin Lan had the opportunity to ask her sister who she was, and why she felt like a big leader's tone, she could not be the director of the Public Security Bureau.
Qin Yue smiled and said, "Sister, he is not the director of the Public Security Bureau, but he can manage the Public Security Bureau." Since he agreed to his brother-in-law's affairs, there will definitely be no problem."
After knowing Tan Zhenglong for so long, Qin Yue knows this seemingly easy-going uncle who is firm in his will and principled, and never makes promises easily, but once he promises, he will fulfill his promises and will never regret it.
Qin Lan was half-believing and half-doubted. Wu Yong just happened to meet someone who could help solve the problem. This was a coincidence. She was worried that Qin Yue would meet a liar and asked about the process of Qin Yue's understanding with the other party.
I was a little upset when Qin Lan asked, and Qin Yue had no idea of continuing to play puzzles with her sister. She pouted and said, "Sister, you really don't know who this person is. He is the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee of our Jiangcheng City."
Qin Lan was stunned for a moment, feeling a little weak, and she felt like she was dreaming. If she hadn't seen the tea cup left on the tea table, she would have thought it was her own hallucination.
Unlike the workshop staff in the past, she is now a serious state cadre and has a rough understanding of the cadre level. The deputy secretary of the municipal party committee is a department-level cadre, and she is a distance of 100,000 miles away from herself.
Thinking that he was still following Qin Yue to call him uncle, Qin Lan was both ashamed and angry. She couldn't help but pull Qin Yue's ears and said, "You damn girl, you don't tell me such a big thing. What if I accidentally say the wrong thing?"
Qin Yue wisely avoided her sister's claws and shouted in dissatisfaction that if I tell you that the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee wants to see you, would you believe me? Besides, you believe me. Do you come over to meet him?
Qin Lan was stunned for a moment. Although she felt that her sister was right, she still pinched Qin Yue's chubby face and said, "It's wrong for you to lie to me anyway. Remember, you must never lie to me again in the future."
Otherwise, don't call me sister.
Seeing that Qin Lan was really angry, Qin Yue quickly begged for forgiveness and said with a smile, "Good sister, don't be angry, Ah, can't I be wrong? I will never dare to do it again next time."
Qin Lan used her mobile phone to confirm Tan Zhenglong's identity online, and then she believed that her sister was not joking with her, and the big stone in her heart fell to the ground.
During the day, she searched almost everyone she knew, but no one could help her rescue Wu Yong, and the news revealed by some made her even more worried.
Some people say that the city will carry out a big operation this time, arresting all the gangsters who do evil things and sentence them, and all the others involved will be dealt with. Wu Yong must be in danger this time, so he asked Qin Lan to find a way to spend money to get people.
Some people also say that this operation is not to crack down on several criminal gangs at all, but to follow the clues and arrest those corrupt officials who do not do personnel. Wu Yong was just implicated, and at most he would be released if he was imprisoned for a few months, so that Qin Lan would not worry.
The second type of speech may be closer to the truth, but Qin Lan has no way to tell, and it is even more impossible to sit and do nothing to wait for the result. Moreover, even if Wu Yong was released in the end, is it for people to treat the detention center? Thinking of the torture that Wu Yong might suffer in it, Qin Lan was anxious, but had no choice but to do anything.
After calling Song Zicheng during the day but not getting through, Qin Lan lost the courage to seek help from the other party, and was also frightened by the idea that he had such an idea. Is he really willing to sacrifice for Wu Yong or subconsciously he did not think that meeting Song Zicheng's conditions was unacceptable to him.
She didn't dare to continue thinking. The bottom line she had struggled to stick to seemed to no longer exist. She could give up sticking to the principles at any time. She didn't know if she could still keep Song Zicheng away if she saw him again.
Qin Lan didn't know how she was caught in this contradictory situation. If Song Zicheng was the kind of playboy who liked to play with women, no matter how rich and powerful he was, no matter how he was coercive or tempted him, he would not have any other thoughts except to increase his disgust towards him.
But Song Zicheng always has a kind of demeanor that makes him moved. He is frank and does not hide his feelings towards him. He is gentleman and never easily violates himself. He has principles and never uses various means to make him submit. Instead, he is like a person who is in love for the first time, carefully holding his heart and waiting for him to feel it.
Of course, Qin Lan didn't know Song Zicheng's plan for Wu Yong behind his back. In fact, even if he knew, Qin Lan had nothing to say. What Song Zicheng used was only the weakness of human nature, which gave Wu Yong the possibility of becoming bad. Everyone's path was chosen by themselves, and it was only a way to comfort themselves.
Qin Lan thought about Wu Yong's affairs and Song Zicheng's relationship with her. She was so confused that she couldn't sleep. She put on her pajamas and leaned against the head of the bed, holding her cell phone to chat with her sister Qin Yue. Since she won the last dance competition, she seemed to have become very busy all of a sudden and had less contact with her.
She just sent a text message with her cell phone to see if Qin Yue had time to chat, and when she heard someone knocking on the door outside, she was shocked and got out of bed quickly, hurriedly left the bedroom and came to the door, and asked: Who?A middle-aged man gasping sounded outside the door: It's me, Qin Lan, please open the door quickly, I have something to ask you.There was a little anxious and uneasy in the voice.
Qin Lan was stunned for a moment because she heard that it was Wu Yong's father Wu Song's voice outside. She didn't have time to think too much, so she quickly opened the door and let the neighbors hear the bad influence in the middle of the night.
A thin old man in his fifties stood outside the door. Seeing the door open, he hurriedly walked in, rushed to the bedroom and looked at it, turned his head and asked Qin Lan anxiously: Where is Wu Yong, where has he been? I went to the bar to find him. Why didn’t the bar open today? I called him and turned off the phone. What happened?
It turned out that Wu Song went out for a walk in the evening and happened to pass by the old streets and alleys. He remembered that his son had said some time ago that he opened a bar here called Old Love, so he decided to go over and see how the business was. If the business was booming, he wanted his relatives to come and help, and he would use his own people to rest assured about his own business.
But unexpectedly, I finally found the door of the old Love Bar under the various signs of lights and wine, but found that the bar was pitch black and there was a seal at the door. Wu Song felt something was wrong and quickly called his son, but it couldn't be reached. He didn't have Qin Lan's mobile phone number, so he hurried to ask what was going on.
Qin Lan didn't expect that things were so coincidental. Wu Yong's bar was discovered by his father-in-law as soon as it was blocked. He couldn't hide it anymore, so he sighed and said: Dad, don't worry, listen to me slowly telling you that something might happen to the person who opened a bar with someone else, so the Public Security Bureau asked Wu Yong to find out about the situation and came back in a day or two. I was afraid that you would not call you if you were worried.
Although Qin Lan wanted to coax it over easily, Wu Song knew that things were not that simple, and his son's problem must be more serious. He had just walked in a hurry and climbed up the stairs. He was a little panting and anxious, and suddenly he turned black in front of him and almost fell down.
Qin Lan was startled and quickly helped her father-in-law lie down on the bed and told him not to move. She hurried to the kitchen to pour a cup of warm water. She returned to the bedroom with the water cup and saw Wu Song covering her stomach and moaning constantly. She quickly put down the water cup and asked, Dad, are you okay, are you feeling uncomfortable in your stomach?
Or I'll take you to the hospital for a look.
When he saw Qin Lan, he was about to call an ambulance. Wu Song endured the pain and gritted his teeth and said, "Don't call, I'm an old problem, I'll just lie down for a while. Do you have painkillers here and don't find some for me?"
Qin Lan knew that Wu Song was reluctant to spend money, and she didn't go to the hospital when she was sick. She just went to the clinic at the entrance to see the doctor and prescribed some medicine and was done as soon as she took it. So she quickly found a few tablets of aspirin for Wu Song to take. Seeing that Wu Song's face slowly relieved, she breathed a sigh of relief. If something happened to her father-in-law at this time, I still don't know what my mother-in-law would think.
Wu Song came to his senses and was about to continue asking about Wu Yong with Qin Lan, but his eyes fell on Qin Lan's chest inadvertently, but he was stunned. He quickly turned his head and looked elsewhere, saying a little embarrassedly, Qin Lan, it's cold at night, you should wear more clothes and don't catch a cold.
It turned out that Qin Lan took off her bra when she went to bed, and she was wearing only a white suspender vest. She only put on her pajamas when she came out to open the door but forgot to tie the buttons. She was busy talking just now and didn't pay attention. At this moment, the two were close. Wu Song raised his eyes and could see Qin Lan's tantalizing spring light from the open gap of her pajamas.
Qin Lan's face turned red after brushing, and she hurriedly turned around and tied up the buttons of her pajamas, secretly scolding herself for being confused, how could she forget to put on the clothes and open the door, and in front of her father-in-law. It would be bad if she let her father-in-law misunderstand that she had done on purpose. She still remembered the dirty things her father-in-law had done to her.
The air in the bedroom also seemed to freeze. Seeing Qin Lan's back to him and not dared to turn around, Wu Song sighed helplessly. In fact, he knew very well what he was in his daughter-in-law's heart. He did do those things a little confused at the beginning, and he didn't blame his daughter-in-law for treating him like this.
Just now, he actually hesitated whether to remind Qin Lan. After all, as a father-in-law, this is not appropriate. If Qin Lan misunderstood, he can't explain it clearly. But if he doesn't say it, it will be even worse than a beast. So he decided to remind Qin Lan in a tactful way, but he didn't expect the other party's reaction to be so great.
If it were normal, Wu Song would definitely leave this place of trouble quickly so that his daughter-in-law would not misunderstand what he thought. But now he was thinking about his son and had to ask clearly. After a while, he sighed and said, Qin Lan, I know that you have always looked down on me as a father-in-law in your heart, so after you moved out, I never dared to come here once, just because you were afraid that you would think too much.
Hearing Wu Song's words, Qin Lan thought of the things that were hot, and she was suspicious that her father-in-law suddenly mentioned this. Although she felt that it was inappropriate to stay alone with her father-in-law so late, she was worried about Wu Song's health, and secondly, Wu Yong had to explain to him about Wu Yong's affairs, so she didn't say anything and listened quietly to Wu Song's words.
Everything was difficult at the beginning. Wu Song said the previous words with difficulty. Suddenly, he felt that the things that had been holding in his heart for a long time were released, and he wanted to tell Qin Lan what he was thinking.
Qin Lan, I know that I am worse than animals in doing things. I am sorry for you. After you moved out, I regretted it. Why can’t I control myself? Why are you so confused?
I know you have never told Wu Yong or his mother about the things I did. I am grateful to you. You have saved my old face, otherwise I really can't live anymore. You are a good daughter-in-law, and my father-in-law did something wrong.
As he was talking, Wu Song started crying in a daze, and suddenly reached out and slapped himself hard and said, "I'm not a human, I'm not a human."
Seeing this, Qin Lan had to stop Wu Song's movements quickly. Seeing that Wu Song's face was already red and swollen, his heart softened. Although he still couldn't let go of those things, he was Wu Yong's father after all.
After thinking about it, Qin Lan said helplessly, Dad, why bother you? The matter has passed. If you don’t mention it, I will forget it. Besides, you can’t blame you alone. Sometimes I don’t pay enough attention to it, and I also have a great responsibility.
When Wu Song heard Qin Lan's words, she burst into tears and shook her head and said, "It's all my fault that I have no ability and have never made any money to prepare for you to get married. If I don't live together, these things will not happen. Alas, I'm useless.
Seeing his father-in-law's remorse, Qin Lan didn't know what to say to comfort him. After all, his behavior was indeed inappropriate, and he couldn't accept it if he changed to a daughter-in-law. He had already done it very patiently, but it would be fine. Everyone should make it clear so that they would not feel uncomfortable when they meet in the future.
However, Wu Song took all the blame on him, which made Qin Lan begin to reflect on whether he was doing something wrong. After all, living under the same roof, how can you not meet? Although Wu Song is his father-in-law, he is also a normal man. Every day, he will inevitably have some thoughts when he sees his young and beautiful daughter-in-law swaying in front of him in cool clothes.
Besides, Wu Song did not really do anything bad to him. Many things are too sensitive to him, so he feels that his father-in-law did it on purpose. In fact, it seems that it is just a subconscious reaction of a man. When his husband goes shopping, he will involuntarily peek at other women. Can it be concluded that Wu Yong has a low character?
After understanding this, Qin Lan suddenly felt relieved. If her father-in-law was really such a person, she would not have specifically reminded herself to put on her clothes just now. Even if he took the opportunity to peek, he could not blame him, but he could only blame himself for being careless.
Qin Lan was not the kind of petty woman. Once she accepted her father-in-law's explanation, her attitude quickly became natural and she no longer avoided like in the past. Although she was a little shy, she still asked firmly, Dad, I have something I have never understood. Since you have that need, why don't you tell your mother and use my underwear to solve it?
Although it is inappropriate and impolite to ask her father-in-law about such privacy questions, this matter has always been a knot in her heart. If she doesn't understand, she feels that she will never be able to face Wu Song normally. Moreover, after three years of marriage, she is not the young wife who just got married back then, and she can face many sensitive topics calmly.
Hearing Qin Lan's questioning, Wu Song blushed and hesitated for a long time and finally said with a heart, "Oh, at this point, I'm not afraid of you being a joke to the younger generation. Your mother and I haven't slept in the same quilt for almost ten years. I'm also a man, why do you think I have such a miserable life?"
It turned out that Wu Yong's mother was very cold to sex. Except for having a normal couple life with Wu Song for a while, she would never take the initiative to be intimate with Wu Song unless Wu Song strongly requested her. Even when she was intimate, Wu Song still felt boring.
But he was a normal man after all, and it was uncomfortable to not be vented. As a result, Wu Yong lived with them after getting married. Every night he listened to the seductive moans coming from the next room, which made Wu Song unable to fall asleep.
That day, Wu Song originally wanted to help Wu Yong and the others clean up the room, but accidentally found Qin Lan's underwear thrown on the bed. He picked it up and tried to solve it secretly. But Wu Yong's mother discovered it and mistakenly thought that Qin Lan had deliberately thrown it on the bed, and Wu Song had no way to explain.
When the matter was made clear, both of them felt much more relaxed, but thinking that Wu Yong was still in a heavy mood. Wu Song had no good idea after discussing for a long time. He just said that the government would definitely not accuse the good people. If Wu Yong did not do anything illegal, he would definitely be released, so that Qin Lan would not be too worried.
Qin Lan thought about it and felt that what her father-in-law said made sense. She asked him not to talk to her mother-in-law when she went back, so as not to have any trouble after Wu Yong's mother knew about it.
Wu Song knew his wife's temper and understood the reason why Qin Lan was worried. He agreed to keep it secret with Wu Yong's mother. Seeing that it was getting late, he hurriedly left. Although he was still worried about his son's affairs, the accidental removal of the misunderstanding between him and his daughter-in-law was an unexpected gain, and his steps seemed much lighter.
Qin Lan felt a little exhausted when she returned to the bedroom and lay down on the bed to go to bed. But she found that Qin Yue had sent several text messages asking herself what she was busy with recently and whether she had thought about when to go to Hainan with her.
Qin Lan was too lazy to chat with her sister anymore, so she sent two words to sleep, threw her phone aside and closed her eyes, and soon fell asleep.
I was confused and felt like I was sitting on a boat, floating in the sea, and there was a rope pulling to both sides, one end was Wu Yong and the other end was Song Zicheng.
Both of them tried their best, but they were evenly matched. Qin Lan sat on the boat and swayed left and right, but she didn't know who she hoped to win. Suddenly, the rope on Wu Yong's side broke, the boat suddenly lost its balance, and he fell into the cold sea in an instant.
Qin Lan woke up in a flash and turned over and sat up to find that she was sweating in a cold sweat. But when she remembered that terrible dream, she still felt scared. She looked at it at twelve o'clock, but she didn't dare to continue sleeping, so she had to sit on the bed with her knees in a daze.
Qin Lan did not fall asleep in a daze until the second half of the night. When she woke up in the morning, she felt dizzy, but she still struggled to go to work in the unit. The more she was at this time, the less she could not fall down, and let others guess something was wrong.
On the bus, Qin Lan suddenly received a text message from Gao Ping. In the text message, Gao Ping said that she had just learned about her husband Wu Yong and told her not to worry too much. If she had any difficulties, she could ask herself for help.
Looking at the phone, Qin Lan frowned slightly. Yesterday she called many of her classmates, but she deliberately avoided Gao Ping, just because she didn't want to have any contact with him anymore. She didn't expect that he would know so soon, and she didn't know who told Gao Ping so enthusiastically.
Qin Lan thought about it and replied to Gao Ping, but she only had the word "Thank you". She didn't know and didn't want to say more to Gao Ping.
When he walked into the shoe and sock factory, Qin Lan greeted the people passing by, and his heart slowly relaxed. It seemed that no one knew about the incident. Song Yuanhai was still a trustworthy person.
Seeing Qin Lan walk into the office as usual, Song Yuanhai, who was dazed in his seat, was a little surprised. He felt that Qin Lan should go to find someone to help at this time, but he didn't expect that she would come to work as if nothing had happened.
When Qin Lan saw Song Yuanhai, Zhan Yan smiled and said that she was fine. No matter what Song Yuanhai thought about him, if it weren't for him yesterday, he might have been confused and didn't know what he would have done.
In the shoe and sock factory, she felt that only Song Yuanhai could talk, and she would not feel any pressure. Since she was promoted unexpectedly, her colleagues have gradually alienated her, and the logistics department people were originally not in the same circle as her.
Although because of Hu Liang's affairs, everyone is a little awe of Qin Lan's background and basically cooperates with her work, not as perfunctory as before, but she always keeps a distance from Qin Lan in private. Qin Lan tries to integrate into the other party's circle, but finds that it means that she has to give up her principles and adapt to the unspoken rules of this circle.
Perhaps this is not a difficult task for many people. This society's unspoken rules exist everywhere. People who do not understand the unspoken rules will only be unable to move forward and are excluded. But for Qin Lan, she is unwilling to do this, so what is the difference between herself and those she has despised in the past?
Then, Huang Siming, director of Qinke, walked in from the office door and saw Qin Lan a little surprised. After asking about the situation, he said, Qin Lan, come on, I have something to talk to you.
Qin Lan and Song Yuanhai looked at each other, not knowing what Huang Siming had to do to find him, so they quickly followed the other party to the section chief's office, thinking that he had left his work before he finished his work yesterday, and didn't know how Huang Siming arranged it. Could it be that he wanted to criticize himself because of this dissatisfaction.
Who knew that Huang Siming did not talk about work at all, but instead asked Qin Lan about warmth. When asked about Qin Lan’s family, Qin Lan was a little flattered, but was puzzled. Finally, seeing that Huang Siming still did not talk about the main topic, he couldn’t help asking, Director, what are you asking me for?
Well, haha.
Huang Siming smiled, picked up the teacup and drank a sip of strong tea and said, "That's right, since you came to the logistics department, you have been proactive in your work and a rigorous attitude. It can be said that it has opened up a new situation in our logistics work. Ah. Yesterday, the factory director asked about your situation, and I also made a report. The factory director said that good comrades like you must use it, so... Qin Lan's heart suddenly sank. Huang Siming probably said nothing good. She knew that what Huang Siming wanted to say now is the key point, but she had long been mentally prepared and insisted on her principles. I don't know how many people she offended. As the deputy director, I'm afraid she had done it all. It's okay, she didn't think about being a leader, and at worst she could just go back to the workshop and continue to do her job.
Huang Siming glanced at Qin Lan's somewhat sad expression, and he didn't know what it felt. If it were himself twenty years ago, he would definitely support Qin Lan's approach without hesitation.
However, the older you are, the more worries you have to consider, and you have to consider many practical issues. You can only say happily. The factory manager said that our factory is a state-owned enterprise and the state is under the management of the state, and the city also needs more outstanding young cadres. Therefore, it is planned to select a group of reserve cadres from each enterprise for training. It takes half a year. This is a rare opportunity. The competition in the factory is very fierce. Finally, the factory manager made a decision and set the list. There are only four people in total.
Qin Lan was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that such news was actually the news, but this should be considered good news. Ah, why did Huang Siming say so embarrassing and his expression was so solemn. For a moment, she didn't know whether this was good or bad.
Huang Siming smiled and said, Qin Lan has worked hard during this period, and your lover must have complained a lot. If you participate in the training, you will have no time. This way, you won’t have to go to work from now on. Just go to the training directly, and your salary and bonus will be calculated as per your calculation.
When Qin Lan went back and handed over the work with Song Yuanhai, Huang Siming sat down and sighed. On the surface, it was of course a good thing to participate in the city's reserve cadres training, but in Huang Siming's view, this was just a means of the factory director, and the real purpose was to get Qin Lan away from the logistics department.
In fact, shortly after Qin Lan started to take charge of the warehouse, the factory manager regretted it a little. This woman was not in the limelight and did not understand the world at all. She wanted to change her leisure position, but was afraid of offending the person she said hello. After thinking hard for a long time, there was no good idea. She just received the document from the city and took the opportunity to start an article. In this way, even if the other party asked about it in the future, she could say that she was thinking about Qin Lan's future. Qin Lan would return to the office in confusion and talk about Huang Siming's meaning to Song Yuanhai. Song Yuanhai reacted very quickly and immediately understood the real intention of the factory, but was inconvenient to tell Qin Lan that she could only congratulate Qin Lan on her bright future. She must not forget herself if she is developed in the future.
In fact, Song Yuanhai had already learned about the city's documents from a friend, but that friend also said that this time it was mainly to promote some relatives. Song Yuanhai's heart was cold. He had participated in similar training classes before, and the city's slogans were shouted very well every time, saying that it was only talent, but as a result, he always studied with the prince, so he was not optimistic about Qin Lan's participation in the training this time.
After half a year, Qin Lan's best result was to return to the shoe and sock factory in shame and continue to be her deputy director of the logistics department. Of course, this is something the factory manager doesn't want to see, so it is very likely that Qin Lan will go to training there, and the factory manager will immediately appoint a new deputy director. I believe there will be another battle at that time.
However, Song Yuanhai was not worried about Qin Lan. As long as the relationship behind Qin Lan was still there, the factory manager would not dare to let her suffer grievances. He could only arrange it to other leisure departments at the same level. Perhaps that would be a good result for Qin Lan and others, but he lost the opportunity to continue to contact Qin Lan.
In fact, during the period when he was in contact with Qin Lan, Song Yuanhai felt that Qin Lan's personality was actually not suitable for development in the career of the officialdom. He had no scheming and was very principled. It was difficult for a woman to go on the career of the officialdom, let alone a beautiful woman, I don't know how many hurdles she would face.
There was once a saying in the city that a woman can be promoted, either the man who gave birth to her is very good or the man who slept with her is very good.
Although it is a bit biased, it is enough to show that women have to go far in their careers and must have a big shot behind them.
Song Yuanhai didn't think there was a truly powerful figure behind Qin Lan, otherwise Qin Lan wouldn't stay in such a place at all. There would be no problem finding one in the city to stuff it in. You can get a considerable salary without doing anything every day.
It turned out that he also suspected that Qin Lan might be the mistress of a real power figure. He didn't want to be too eye-catching, but he wanted Qin Lan to make some extra money so that he would arrange for Qin Lan to have a good position. However, through his contact with Qin Lan, Qin Lan's actions and her personality dispelled Song Yuanhai's speculation.
Maybe it's just a relative of Qin Lan. I didn't hear others say that a young man who called himself Qin Lan's cousin often came to see her, but whether Qin Lan is a chaste woman or someone else's mistress, all this has nothing to do with Song Yuanhai.
Song Yuanhai could only watch the gentle and elegant woman packed her things, chuckled and said take care of herself, then disappeared at the door of the office, but when they met again, they didn't know when it would be.
Qin Lan did not have as sad as Song Yuanhai. Standing at the gate of the shoe and sock factory, she looked back at the big words flying and phoenix, but she felt confused. She didn't know where she should go at this moment. When she went home, she felt even more lonely in the house.
After thinking for a long time, Qin Lan felt that she would call her sister. At this time, she really wanted to hear Qin Yue talk about the lively things in their school. Only in this way would she forget her troubles.
The phone was quickly connected, and Qin Yue's sweet voice as crisp as a bean was heard there, but it was not as careless as usual, but it was a bit deliberate and steady.
Qin Lan asked her sister if she was busy now, and she wanted to go over and talk to her, and if she was busy, she would forget it.
Qin Yue smiled and said, "Sister, I'm not busy, but now a friend invites me to have tea, but he is the most busy person."
I don’t know if they want to see you. Ah, a man’s voice vaguely sounded from the other end of the phone, and then I heard Qin Yue explaining something in a low voice with the other party. Qin Lan was suspicious and didn’t know who Qin Lan was with. Since she saw Qin Lan and Zhang Peng last time, she felt that Zhang Peng was quite suitable for her sister, so she didn’t want Qin Yue to step on two boats, hurt Zhang Peng and hurt herself.
After waiting for a while, Qin Yue said with a smile, "Sister, my friend wants to see you, and said that it is fate that I met. I want to invite you to have a meal together, but I don't know if you are willing to give me a favor."
Qin Lan is in a bad mood now, just wanting to chat with her sister alone to relieve her depression. She is unwilling to meet any strange man, but she is worried about her sister, so she hesitated for a moment and agreed.
Qin Lan regretted it a little. Maybe the other party was just an ordinary classmate of her sister. What is it like to rush over like this? Is it considered meeting the parents? I am also too worried about my sister.
She wanted to call Qin Yue again and said that she had something to do, but she felt that it was impolite. She had been struggling for a long time and decided to go over and say hello, and then find an excuse to leave.
According to the address mentioned by Qin Yue, Qin Lan took a taxi to a quiet alley. After getting off the car, Qin Lan looked around. There were two rows of tall sycamore trees on both sides of the road, with few vehicles and pedestrians, which seemed very deserted.
Qin Lan saw the tall red wall opposite, which looked very old, but she didn't know where it was. Although she had lived in Jiangcheng for six or seven years, she usually went home from work and rarely went shopping, so she was not very familiar with many places.
Now I have time, but I no longer feel like shopping. Thinking that Wu Yong was still under investigation somewhere, Qin Lan was in a depressed mood and wanted to turn around and go home and hide in the quilt and cry, although doing so would not solve any problem.
But at this time, Qin Yue called to urge Qin Lan to come over quickly, as if she was worried that the man would be unhappy if he waited for a long time.
Qin Lan had to walk into the alley, but today she dressed up specially in order to make herself look more energetic. Not only did she wear her favorite dress, but she also changed into a pair of black high heels, and her legs were flesh-colored stockings. In addition to being beautiful, she also showed a hint of sexyness.
The place where Qin Yue and his friends drank tea was called Yiran Teahouse, which was an inconspicuous storefront. Qin Lan finally found it. When he walked in, he found that there was a unique world inside. The overall decoration of the teahouse was very elegant. There were a few calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall and a few rattan chairs at the door. It was simple but very comfortable for people to see.
Qin Yue poked her head out of the stairs on the second floor, waved to Qin Lan and whispered, "Sister, come up."
In such a simple and elegant place, her temperament couldn't help but restrain herself a lot.
Qin Lan walked up to the second floor with a creaking wooden staircase, and her eyes lit up. One side of this place was a corridor, and the outside was full of lush trees, which seemed to be a corner of the park, and the other side was a room with bamboo curtains hanging on it.
It is indeed a good place to drink tea.
Qin Yue walked in with a smile and said with a sweet smile, "Uncle, my sister is here, two beauties have dinner with you, you should be satisfied."
There was a teahouse in the room, with tea sets on it. A middle-aged man was holding a tea cup to taste tea. When he saw Qin Lan walking in with Qin Yue, he put down the tea cup and slowly stood up, stretched out his broad palm and smiled at Qin Lan, "Hello Qin Lan, I am Tan Zhenglong."
Qin Lan was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but hold the other person's hand, but her mind was a little unresponsive. She thought that her sister's friend would be a young man in her twenties, but she didn't expect that she was a middle-aged man about the same age as her father. No wonder Qin Yue spoke a little restrainedly.
Feeling that the other party's hand was very powerful, not the kind of perfunctory handshake, but the strength would not cause misunderstandings to Qin Lan. Qin Lan quickly relaxed and said with a smile, "Hello, Uncle Tan, I'm so embarrassed to bother you. I haven't seen Qin Yue for a long time, so I just wanted to talk to her."
Qin Yue is even more open-minded, and it is impossible to find a man of his father's generation. Besides, Qin Lan saw that the other party's demeanor and conversation were like the kind of person with status, so the worries on the road just now disappeared. As she spoke, she thought in her heart how could her sister know such a person.
Tan Zhenglong's expression was a little stiff. I don't know if it was because Qin Lan called him uncle. In fact, his age was only nearly twenty years apart from Qin Lan. Qin Yue didn't have any psychological burden to call him like that.
Qin Yue cheered excitedly, pointed at Tan Zhenglong and said, "Uncle, you lost. You also said that I, a college student, don't care about the development of our Jiangcheng City. My sister has worked for many years, and she is still as confused as me."
Humph, I think you are just too confident.
Too confident means being arrogant, and being arrogant means making mistakes.
Tan Zhenglong's face turned red a little. He looked at Qin Lan awkwardly, touched his nose and smiled bitterly, "Your sister's mouth is so amazing. I think you can be a reporter in the future."
Qin Lan couldn't understand what the two of them were saying. She was confused but embarrassed to ask and had to agree. At the invitation of Tan Zhenglong, she sat down in a daze and had tea with the two of them, forgetting that she was trying to find an excuse to leave.
Although Qin Lan, an uninvited guest, was still very active in the room. However, most of the time, Qin Yue kept talking, while Tan Zhenglong was listening, while Qin Lan looked at the strange combination, thinking about how two people who were completely incompatible got together.
Finally, Qin Lan couldn't help asking, Uncle Tan, are you a professor in Qin Yue's school?
Qin Lan thinks this way with a certain basis. Qin Yue's scope of activities is mainly in universities, so the people she can contact are basically students or teachers in the school, and the other party has a scholarly temperament.
A look of remembrance flashed through Tan Zhenglong's eyes, and he took a sip of tea slowly, before saying with a smile, "Oh, how did you see it?" It's not that Qin Yue told you before.
After observation, he found that Qin Lan really didn't know her identity, so he decided to continue hiding her identity with interest.
Qin Yue said disdainfully, "Uncle, you are wrong." He lied to me at the beginning, but now he wants to lied to my sister again. I'll tell you that there is no way, and I won't say it if you don't say it."
Sister, think about it carefully. His name is Tan Zhenglong, and he is very famous in Jiangcheng City.
Seeing his sister's look of a look of regret, Qin Lan carefully searched her limited memories of celebrities named Tan in her mind. The singers don't look like them, and the hosts are not right. Is it an Internet celebrity?
Finally, Qin Yue had to remind Qin Lan, sister, don’t think too much. He actually works in the Jiangcheng City Government and specializes in legal work. You can think about it carefully.
In fact, Jiangcheng News occasionally reports about Tan Zhenglong, but the frequency is definitely not as frequent as the municipal party secretary and mayor. However, after the thunder operation recently began, Tan Zhenglong's appearances have gradually increased, and he has gradually become familiar to the people of Jiangcheng. Unfortunately, Qin Lan does not have the habit of watching Jiangcheng News every day. Otherwise, under Qin Yue's reminder, he would definitely think that the middle-aged man in front of him was Tan Zhenglong, the third person in Jiangcheng, the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee.
Although Qin Lan still didn't remember it, she couldn't help but feel moved when she heard that the other party was working in the government and was working in the law. When she thought of Wu Yong's incident, she couldn't help but say to Tan Zhenglong, Uncle Tan, you work in the government. I have something I want to trouble you. I don't know if I can ask someone for help.
He then told me about Wu Yong being taken to investigate.
After listening to Qin Lan's narration, Tan Zhenglong frowned slightly. Unexpectedly, the Thunder Action would actually affect Qin Yue's brother-in-law. He didn't know the specific situation now. Moreover, his identity was particularly inconvenient to express his opinion, so he could only pick up a teacup and take a sip, and glance at Qin Yue.
Although Qin Yue is careless, she is actually very sensible. She immediately knew that Tan Zhenglong was inconvenient to answer, so she quickly said to Qin Lan, "Sister, don't make things difficult for uncles." You see, he is like a leader, but he is actually an ordinary staff member and has no status in the government. However, you don't even tell me about my brother-in-law's affairs. Even if I can't help, I can at least give you an idea.
Seeing Qin Yue helping him to help him relieve the siege but did not forget to sarcastically, Tan Zhenglong almost laughed out loud. This girl is now increasingly disregarding herself. The restraint and anxiety when she first learned about her identity have long disappeared, but this made him very pleased. He really doesn't want to lose a friend like Qin Yue.
Although the Thunder Operation points to black forces, it is inevitable that innocent people will be involved in the operation, and even many people wandering in the gray area will be affected. Most of these people will be released, but a more complicated procedure will be taken.
After thinking about it carefully, Tan Zhenglong decided to help Qin Yue's sister solve this problem. This was not only to satisfy Qin Yue, but more importantly, he liked Qin Lan. A woman with a completely different personality from Qin Yue but equally kind, her husband would definitely not be a serious crime.
Although such subjective conjectures are a bit far-fetched, Tan Zhenglong has the right to be willful, not to mention that his original intention of organizing the Thunder Operation was not to clean up the gray forces in Jiangcheng City. He could not do it, so he decided to violate the principle of one time.
He gave Qin Yue a comforting look, and Tan Zhenglong cleared his throat and pondered, Qin Lan, you don’t have to worry, we all have to believe in the law and the government. If your husband really has no problems, he will definitely go home safely. Let’s do this. I’ll give Xiaoyue a call, you can contact the other party and report my name.
After saying that, he stood up and stretched out his hand to Qin Lan and said sincerely, "Sorry, I still have something to do, so I can't invite you to dinner. I will officially invite you and Xiaoyue to dinner if you have time another day."
He was not making excuses to leave, but Qin Lan's incident made him suddenly realize that there might be many trends of expansion in the Thunder Operation, which would lead the spearhead of the action to other places. This is something he did not want to see. The blow to the Brotherhood and other evil forces was just an introduction.
He wants to reverse this trend immediately and concentrate his firepower to prepare for the final blow.
After Tan Zhenglong left, Qin Lan had the opportunity to ask her sister who she was, and why she felt like a big leader's tone, she could not be the director of the Public Security Bureau.
Qin Yue smiled and said, "Sister, he is not the director of the Public Security Bureau, but he can manage the Public Security Bureau." Since he agreed to his brother-in-law's affairs, there will definitely be no problem."
After knowing Tan Zhenglong for so long, Qin Yue knows this seemingly easy-going uncle who is firm in his will and principled, and never makes promises easily, but once he promises, he will fulfill his promises and will never regret it.
Qin Lan was half-believing and half-doubted. Wu Yong just happened to meet someone who could help solve the problem. This was a coincidence. She was worried that Qin Yue would meet a liar and asked about the process of Qin Yue's understanding with the other party.
I was a little upset when Qin Lan asked, and Qin Yue had no idea of continuing to play puzzles with her sister. She pouted and said, "Sister, you really don't know who this person is. He is the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee of our Jiangcheng City."
Qin Lan was stunned for a moment, feeling a little weak, and she felt like she was dreaming. If she hadn't seen the tea cup left on the tea table, she would have thought it was her own hallucination.
Unlike the workshop staff in the past, she is now a serious state cadre and has a rough understanding of the cadre level. The deputy secretary of the municipal party committee is a department-level cadre, and she is a distance of 100,000 miles away from herself.
Thinking that he was still following Qin Yue to call him uncle, Qin Lan was both ashamed and angry. She couldn't help but pull Qin Yue's ears and said, "You damn girl, you don't tell me such a big thing. What if I accidentally say the wrong thing?"
Qin Yue wisely avoided her sister's claws and shouted in dissatisfaction that if I tell you that the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee wants to see you, would you believe me? Besides, you believe me. Do you come over to meet him?
Qin Lan was stunned for a moment. Although she felt that her sister was right, she still pinched Qin Yue's chubby face and said, "It's wrong for you to lie to me anyway. Remember, you must never lie to me again in the future."
Otherwise, don't call me sister.
Seeing that Qin Lan was really angry, Qin Yue quickly begged for forgiveness and said with a smile, "Good sister, don't be angry, Ah, can't I be wrong? I will never dare to do it again next time."
Qin Lan used her mobile phone to confirm Tan Zhenglong's identity online, and then she believed that her sister was not joking with her, and the big stone in her heart fell to the ground.
