Lu Yiwei nodded. "I plan to meet Secretary Guo tomorrow."
"Don't mention it now. Let's talk about it later. Remember, no matter when, no matter what situation you face, you must be calm. You are already a leader, so you must learn to control your emotions and maintain a certain personality. Do you understand? "
Lu Yiwei accepted it humbly.
Zhang Zhiyuan looked at his watch and stood up. "It's getting late. Go back and rest. Did you go to Long 'an and not go home yet?"
"Yes."
"Don't neglect Chunfang. She is a good woman."
"Understood."
Lu Yiwei insisted on sending him downstairs. In the car, Zhang Zhiyuan said. "Your father-in-law might be involved in this adjustment, but I don't know the details. With the current situation, anyone could be involved, including me. "
Lu Yiwei looked at him and was surprised. "You just went to the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission. It can't be that fast, right?"
Zhang Zhiyuan sighed helplessly and said, "The affairs of the world are unpredictable, the winds and clouds change unpredictably. Who knows? I have followed Governor Shen for more than three years. He is leaving soon. I … I don't want to talk about it. "
Lu Yiwei could tell that Zhang Zhiyuan had something on his mind, so he didn't ask further.
After sending him home, Lu Yiwei felt empty in his heart. Back in the car, he asked Nan Chao to turn on the music. Xu Wei's Blue Lotus was playing. Looking at the flowing night view outside the window, his mood fluctuated along with the familiar melody. A cold wind blew in through the gap, messing up his heart.
He remembered that when he was in the statistics bureau, the old leader said that the longer you stay in the bureaucracy, the more afraid you will be. At that time, he had just entered the bureaucracy, so he didn't understand the meaning of this sentence. He even felt that it was a bit pretentious. Who didn't want to climb up? The higher the position, the more power they had. As his status gradually rose, he finally understood why the old leader said that. It was fine if he worked hard, but dealing with complicated interpersonal relationships was a headache. Before Long 'an County could be sorted out, the province was also quietly changing.
His relationship with Bai Zongfeng was not as deep as that of Zhang Zhiyuan, but after all, they had been together for many years. When he heard that Bai Zongfeng would soon leave Xijiang, he felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart. His departure meant that he would lose someone he could rely on.
"Secretary Lu, which direction is your house?"
It was Nan Chao's first time here, so he did not know where he lived. Lu Yiwei came back to his senses and said, "Let's walk around Dongjiang Road first."
Nan Chao did not understand his intentions, so he could only continue forward.
Lu Yiwei leaned against the car window, all sorts of things churning in his mind. After walking around for a while, he waited for his emotions to calm down before returning home. Getting out of the driveway, he said, "Find a hotel to stay in and pick me up at 7: 30 tomorrow morning."
She took the elevator to her house. After searching for a long time, she still could not find the key. She knocked on the door and waited for a long time before Fan Chunfang opened the door. Seeing Lu Yiwei standing in front of her, she could not believe her eyes. She covered her mouth in surprise and looked at him for a long time. Suddenly, she threw herself into his arms and cried tears of joy, "When did you come back? Why didn't you tell me in advance?"
Lu Yiwei was romantic in his bones, but years of mingling in the officialdom had already worn out that romance. Fan Chunfang suddenly did not know how to respond, so she stood there stiffly and did not move.
Fan Chunfang let go of him, wiped her tears and said with a smile, "If I knew you were coming back, I would have asked Mom to go back."
"Mom is here?"
"Yes."
Lu Yiwei's passion that had just been ignited was like a thermometer, instantly dropping. He did not know why he did not want to see his mother-in-law. Every time he saw her, he felt more depressed.
Fan Chunfang saw through his thoughts, held his hand and whispered, "What are you afraid of? My mom can't eat you. Come in quickly."
"Mom, Yiwei is back."
Lu Yiwei changed into slippers and saw Sun Chunyun sitting on the sofa, watching TV with an expressionless face. He looked up and did not say anything, and continued to change the channel with the remote control.
Fan Chunfang said something again, and Sun Chunyun said, "You are back?"
Lu Yiwei smiled and did not know what to say. If it was his mother, she would always have endless things to say.
Just as he was about to go into the bedroom to see the child, Sun Chunyun shouted, "Don't go in!"
Lu Yiwei was shocked and stood there blankly.
Sun Chunyun got up and said, "You came back in the middle of the night, what if you bring back something dirty and scare the child? Go take a bath first."
Fan Chunfang was embarrassed and quickly said, "Mom, you are an old party member, why are you still superstitious about such things? Yiwei has not seen Lang Lang for half a month, let him go in first. "
Sun Chunyun did not budge, "No, besides he has a cold body, and Lang Lang's fever has just subsided. If it flares up again, he will have to go to the hospital."
Lu Yiwei was looking forward to coming back, but the moment he entered, he was doused with cold water. He felt extremely uncomfortable. He decided not to go in, and went straight to the study.
Fan Chunfang quickly followed and closed the door, "Yiwei, don't be offended by Mom, she has that temper."
Lu Yiwei took off his clothes and said, "It's fine, I am used to it."
Fan Chunfang took the clothes from his hand and hung them up, "Have you eaten? I will make something for you."
"Yes."
"Have you drunk? I will make you a cup of tea." Saying that, he quickly ran out.
The more Fan Chunfang behaved like this, the more uncomfortable Lu Yiwei felt. Their marriage was the result of some political interference, and it was the same as their first marriage. The difference was, it was Fan Chunfang who fell in love with him.
When the two of them got married, Sun Chunyun vehemently opposed it. She despised his second marriage, and that he was from the countryside. However, Fan Chunfang insisted, and with the support of her father, Fan Rongkui, even if she did not agree, she still chose to compromise.
After the marriage, Lu Yiwei had the impression that she did not treat him well. He also tried his best to improve their relationship, but no matter how hard he tried, it did not help. Especially after the incident with Su Meng, she had an even more negative opinion of him, and under her pressure, the marriage was on the brink of collapse. Fan Chunfang was innocent, she was a good woman, a good wife, and a good mother. Every time he thought of this, the burning impulse in his heart gradually subsided. In other words, I am not going to spend the rest of my life with her, so I should bear with it.
Fan Chunfang was stuck in the middle, and was in a difficult position. She did not know how many times she had reprimanded her mother, but it could not extinguish the anger in her heart. In fact, she knew very well that her mother preferred Xu Lei, who came from a better background. It had been so many years, but even today, she could not forget about Xu Lei.
