Two tables were prepared for dinner in the evening. The other table was borrowed by Zhang Sujuan from her neighbor. Although there was no deliberate arrangement of seats at the table, everyone sat down in the seat they thought belonged to them. Several of Xu Yun's women were sitting at the same table, along with his cousin and his cousin's wife. The rest of the people sat at one table. It was Xu Yun, his mother, two uncles, his aunt, and his cousin. The wine was brought back earlier. The liquor is Moutai, everyone understands and knows it, it is a good thing. Both uncles are heavy drinkers. The red wine was Petrus.

Apart from Xu Yun and his group, few people knew about it or its price. The two aunts just thought it tasted better than the one they bought at home. I actually drank a few more glasses than usual, and my face looked a little flushed. Seeing this, Xu Yun naturally understood some etiquette and said casually: "When you go back later, each of you can take two bottles of red and white home to drink." This made the two uncles very happy. Although everyone was very reserved at the beginning, after a few drinks, the uncles who were the elders started to become talkative. From heaven to earth, from economy to politics, from international events to trivial matters in the county, everything can be talked about. Please share your own views and opinions. It seems that the world and the country would be a better place if they were in charge. After the last meal, everyone didn't drink much and was still within the limit, half drunk and half not drunk. This state is exactly the best. After that, everyone started playing mahjong. There’s no way around it, this is the after-dinner entertainment in a small county town. But there were so many people at home and there was only one mahjong table, so after discussing it, we decided to go out and find a teahouse. In this way, the group set off for a teahouse near the community and gathered three tables. The two uncles, Su Mu and Fu Baoying sat at the same table. Xinuo and Ning Qian sat at the same table with their two aunts. Li Jinshu sat at the same table with Zhang Sujuan, Xu Yun's cousin and his sister. Chen Xin didn't fight, but took Xu Xiaozhi to play aside. Because Xu Yun was thinking about what happened with Zheng Yi, he didn't fight and made an appointment to meet him.

The two came to the meeting bar and each ordered a cocktail. Zheng Yi saw that Xu Yun smelled of alcohol and said with a smile, "Did you drink alcohol with us tonight? Is that okay?" "I had a few drinks with my family." Xu Yun replied: "Don't worry, you can't make me drunk." "That's good." Hearing this, Zheng Yi called the waiter with confidence, ordered two cocktails, and then said, "You know I've been promoted now, right?" "Yes, I heard he is now a deputy section chief." "Then do you know which unit I am in?" "I really don't know that." Xu Yun asked in confusion: "What does this have to do with you looking for me?" "It's a big deal." Zheng Yi replied: "I was transferred to the Investment Promotion Bureau and am doing the work of attracting investment in the county." "Well, that's a good job." Xu Yun smiled and said, "You can now say that you are ordered to go out and eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks with the boss all day long." "It's not as comfortable as you think. The work is very difficult and there are tasks to be done every year." "I finally understood that you want to use me as your achievement!" "I don't have any. This is a mission." Zheng Yi said: "I won't beat around the bush with you, let me be frank. Today our leaders received a task from the county, and you are our main investment target." "I?" "Yes, I was also a little surprised during the meeting this afternoon." Zheng Yi said: "But I haven't told the leader about my relationship with you, so I decided to try to ask for your opinion first. Telling you can also be regarded as informing you in advance. So that you won’t be unprepared when our leaders or the county come to you.” Xu Yun asked: "What exactly is the investment?" "It's the central business district in the new city. Currently, only Phase 1 has been built. Phase 2 has not been built and there is no money to build it." Zheng Yi said: "So the county has been looking for ways to find a company to take over." "Why choose me?" "I don't know either. I only found out about this during the meeting this afternoon." Zheng Yi asked suspiciously, "Do you think someone has told the county about your information?"

After being reminded by the other party, Xu Yun remembered the group of people he met this afternoon and had some idea in his mind. "I probably know what's going on." Xu Yun was silent for a while, then asked, "If I agree to invest in you and help you complete the construction, what preferential policies or benefits will I get? You know, as a businessman, you definitely need a certain amount of profit." "You can tell us your conditions and we will help you communicate with the county." Zheng Yi said: "Based on my understanding, I think as long as you don't make excessive demands, the county should agree." At this point, he suddenly realized what was happening and asked in surprise, "Are you really going to come back and invest in real estate?" "Isn't this to help you?" Xu Yun said jokingly. In fact, he wanted to use this investment to put forward conditions to the government and request a piece of land nearby to build a villa area. It just so happened that they were talking about this matter at home before. I didn't expect that just when I wanted to take a nap, the other party would come to me and hand me a pillow. "No, I can't bear such a big pot." Zheng Yi quickly said: "I came to see you tonight, not to drag you into a trap. After all, this is not a trivial matter. It involves a project worth 1 to 2 million yuan, and it is no joke. You just need to consider this matter based on your own actual situation and interests, don't worry about me. If you think that investing in this project is promising and beneficial to you, then you can invest. I will also take this opportunity to act like a good boy in front of my boss and show off myself. If you think it is not feasible, do not want to invest, or cannot invest in this risky project, then I will pretend that it never happened, and they can come to you if they want. Anyway, just keep your mouth shut and refuse to agree." After listening to this, Xu Yun smiled and said, "You think a lot and you care about me." "Of course. Although I, Zheng Yi, don't have much ability and am not very outstanding, I still can't do something like selling out my friends' interests in exchange for my own success." "Since you've said so, I'll prepare you mentally in advance." Xu Yun said: "I will most likely agree with what you said. First, it is also to build my hometown, second, it can help you, and third, I also have some personal ideas of my own and want to ask the government for some policies. " "Then you can't agree too quickly." Zheng Yi reminded: "Otherwise it will be difficult to negotiate terms with the county." "It's natural." Xu Yun smiled and said, "I will let them hit a wall at the beginning, until Director Zheng personally steps in to convince me and I am willing to sit down and talk." "Okay, okay, this is fine." Zheng Yi smiled and said, "Then I would like to thank my old classmates in advance, hahahaha..."

It was the New Year and they were busy, so after chatting for a while, they went their separate ways. Xu Yun originally wanted to go home, but unexpectedly met Gao Wenwen who was shopping with her friends on the road. Gao Wenwen was also surprised when she saw Xu Yun. So she decisively abandoned her friends, took Xu Yun's arm, and started a date with him. They went to see a movie together, "Nezha 2" The two of them hid in the corner, eating the same popcorn and drinking the same large cup of Coke. They kiss from time to time. Xu Yun had never enjoyed a love scene before, but now he got to experience it. Afterwards, they went back to their respective homes under Gao Wenwen's reluctant gaze. However, the scene of her and Xu Yun coming out of the cinema was seen by her relatives, who then sent it to Gao Wenwen's parents. Also attached is a photo that Xu Yun took when he went to the top of the Three Gorges today. In the background of the picture, Xu Yun was holding Su Mu. "Wenwen's mom, is your Wenwen in love?" The relative said on WeChat: “The man she was holding just now looked very much like the man I met at the scenic spot before. You'd better ask, don't let her be deceived." "Okay, thank you cousin." Gao Wenwen's parents looked unhappy after seeing the two photos. Men in particular were angry and said, "I told you that you should take care of it, and you said I was overthinking it." "Why are you in such a hurry? Wait until your daughter comes back and ask her first." So when Gao Wenwen returned home, she felt that the atmosphere was not right. Then my parents started the inquiry meeting directly. Gao Wenwen denied it at first, but after her parents showed her the photos, she had no choice but to admit it. "Yes, I am in love." Gao Wenwen said: "Haven't you always wanted to talk to me? If I talk to you, isn't it exactly what you want?" "Talk, I want you to talk to a serious person!" Dad said angrily: "Tell me, does he have a girlfriend or a wife?" "Yes, daughter." My mother advised me, "You are a teacher, so you can't be so confused. In this small county, good news doesn't go out, but bad news spreads a thousand miles. If this is true and it gets out, how can you teach and meet people in the future? "

"No, I know what I'm doing." Gao Wenwen explained: "He and I are in a normal relationship. He doesn't have a girlfriend or a wife." "Then tell me, what's the matter with this photo?" Gao Wenwen took a look and retorted, "It's because he's afraid of heights. My boyfriend is doing good things." "Do you believe this yourself?" "I believe it." Gao Wenwen said: "Why don't I believe it? Since I like him and he is my boyfriend, I won't doubt him." "Why are you so stubborn?" The man said angrily: "Okay, you said he is your boyfriend, there is nothing wrong with him, then find a time to let him come home once." "Dad, I'm very busy." Gao Wenwen said in embarrassment: "Besides, he and I are still in the dating stage, and we haven't reached the stage of meeting each other's parents yet." "..." The man was speechless. He sighed and said, "Forget it. I don't care about you anymore. But you are already 25 years old. You should think clearly about what you do." After saying that, he got up and went into the bedroom. Seeing this, the woman comforted her own woman, “Mom believes you, you have been sensible since childhood, but don’t blame your father today, he is doing this for your own good, afraid that you will be deceived.” "I know, don't worry." Gao Wenwen said: "I won't do anything to embarrass you or make you lose face. Mom, if it's ok, I'll go to my room and wash up and go to bed." "Well, go ahead, and don't think too much." The woman smiled and said, "You can interact with others however you want. Don't worry about us. Your life is your own. As long as you are happy and don't regret it, that's all." "Thank you, Mom." Gao Wenwen returned to her room, lay on the bed, stared at the ceiling in a daze, thinking about the photos she had just seen. "Is that his woman in Jiangcheng?" the other side. Xu Yun returned to the teahouse and everyone was still fighting. He watched from the side for a while, then took over Su Mu's position and fought with his two uncles until 11 o'clock in the evening, when the battle ended. We have to go to the countryside tomorrow, so we need to go home and rest early tonight. After returning home, everyone went to their rooms to sleep according to yesterday's arrangement.

Turn off the lights for a while. Tonight, Xinuo decided to take a risk and spend some time with Xu Yun. But when she sneaked into the living room, she found that the sofa was empty and there was no sign of Xu Yun at all. "No, where did he go?" Xinuo was confused and looked towards Fu Baoying's room suspiciously, thinking it was impossible because Xiaozhi was there. In the end, she could only return to her room depressed and couldn't sleep all night. And in another room. Ning Qian had just fallen asleep for a short while when she suddenly saw a crack in the door of her bedroom. A figure suddenly rushed in, closed the door, and got into her bed. Ning Qian, who was originally a little panicked, smelled someone's familiar scent and immediately knew who it was. Some unexpected surprises. She really hadn't been intimate with Xu Yun for a long time, and she didn't dare to ask for it actively. Xu Yun hugged her and laughed softly, "The sofa in the living room is a bit cold, it's warmer here." "Then I'll keep you warmer." Ning Qian smiled shyly, turning the passive situation into active one. Three dishes and one soup, five switches, a fire hydrant, an octopus, and a dragonfly skimming the water were all used! Since you want to eat, just eat your fill. In order to avoid being discovered by Su Mu and Li Jinshu next door, the two of them were extremely careful and did not dare to make any sound. For this, Xu Yun paid some price on his back and shoulders. There were scratches and teeth marks. Fortunately, it is winter now and I have plenty of clothes to wear, so I am not afraid of being discovered. The two of them had almost finished their work and it was almost dawn. Xu Yun left Ning Qian's room, returned to his living room sofa, and began to take a nap. This sleep was very sweet and deep. When he woke up in the morning, he opened his eyes and found that everyone was up and looking at him in the living room. Xu Yun smiled and said, "Good morning, everyone." "It is late." Fu Baoying said: "Auntie has prepared everything and is waiting for you to get up, wash up, and set off." Xu Yun saw that it was past nine o'clock, smiled awkwardly, and said, "I had a wet dream at the last minute, and I don't want to wake up. I'll get up now."

Ning Qian blushed subconsciously when she heard this. While Xu Yun was washing up, Xinuo suddenly came to him and asked in a puzzled voice: "Where did you go last night? Why didn't I see you?" "No way." Xu Yun pretended to be stupid and said, "Maybe the light is too dark and you saw it wrong. I was sleeping on the sofa the whole time." Xinuo: “???” (End of this chapter)
