"You can only succeed, not fail."
Mi Xaing 'er didn't say it explicitly, but that was what she meant.
Of course, Mo Dongyang understood and nodded hard. "Okay!"
Just as he finished speaking.
Feng Xiuzhu brought the steaming dumplings over and placed them in front of him. She placed the plate and chopsticks on the table and asked attentively in a low voice, "Try it first. Do you want soy sauce? Where's the vinegar? "
Mo Dongyang looked up at her. "Have you eaten?"
Feng Xiuzhu was delighted to hear that he was concerned about her. "I ate a long time ago! I saved it especially for you! "
There was an imperceptible smile on Mo Dongyang's lips. "So … you were waiting for me?"
Huh?
His question was a little ambiguous.
Waiting for me?
Was he talking about tonight?
Or this lifetime?
Feng Xiuzhu didn't know how to answer. She lowered her head silently.
She was too shy, especially in front of her "lover." She didn't dare to say anything. Otherwise, she wouldn't have delayed confessing for so many years.
Mi Xaing 'er pursed her lips and smiled. "Brother Dongyang, do you still need to ask this? Sister Xiuzhu was waiting for you! "
Her answer was also ambiguous.
She couldn't help it!
It wasn't her business, so she couldn't be too direct. She was afraid that Feng Xiuzhu wouldn't be able to hold herself back.
Even so, Feng Xiuzhu was still embarrassed. "I'm not done with the kitchen yet!"
She turned around and left.
Mo Dongyang didn't say anything. He lowered his head and started eating the steaming dumplings. "Oh, it's my favorite shiitake stuffed dumpling!"
Mi Xaing 'er looked at her quietly and didn't say anything. She should let her solve her own relationship problems. She didn't want to show off. "Brother Dongyang, I rented this house when I first came here. The location and environment are pretty good. Later, I moved to Tiger's dormitory, so this house is empty. If you want to live in the city for a long time, this is a good place!"
"Okay! Got it! "
"What if you're not used to it? Tell me more … "
Mo Dongyang waved his hand nonchalantly. "That's pretty good. Someone even warmed up my soup dumplings!"
He then asked a few more questions, "I heard that your lover has been transferred? Then how long will it take for you to live in two separate places? "
Mi Xaing 'er sighed. "Who knows?"
"Can he come back to visit his family?"
"Not yet. It hasn't even been a year since we separated! According to the rules, we have to wait a little longer! "
"Then you didn't think about going there?"
Mi Xaing 'er smiled bitterly. "We still have to apply to the army first! Besides, I can't leave right now! "
He really couldn't leave!
There were too many things going on at home!
Her studies were heavy, her children were small, her parents-in-law had just gotten married, and she had to move to a new house. Her parents were back, but they were not in good health. Furthermore, she had such a big business to manage … She was tied down by these mundane matters, and it was really difficult for her to move forward.
Mo Dongyang shook his head helplessly. "It's not easy for you guys to get married in the army, huh? No matter how big the business is at home, the man is not even around! Even if it's just a phone call, a letter, or a meeting, you still have to consider the influence of the masses and the opinions of the organization. Sigh! "
That's right!
It was really difficult!
Mi Xaing 'er did not complain. She saw that it was getting late and said, "I'll stop talking. It's time for me to go home. I'll come back tomorrow?"
"It's so late. How are you going to leave? Let me send you! "
"No need! The bus stop is just at the entrance! It's quite convenient! "
Mo Dongyang insisted, "Then I'll send you to the bus."
Mi Xaing 'er understood how he felt and did not refuse anymore. "Then I'll wait for you to finish your meal!"
Mo Dongyang stuffed two buns into his mouth. "It's over! Let's go! "
He pushed Mi Xaing 'er and walked out. When he reached the entrance, he bumped into Feng Xiuzhu … Feng Xiuzhu's eyes widened. "Where are you going?"
She immediately understood. "Sending Mi Xaing 'er? Ninth Brother, wait up! "
She quickly ran into the house. In the blink of an eye, she was holding a woolen coat in her hands. "Here, it's cold outside. You just came from Shanghai and are not used to the weather here. Don't catch a cold!"
Mo Dongyang looked at the coat in her hands … It was a man's coat. It was well-made and the stitches were exquisite. He took it and put it on. It was not too big nor too small.
He was still a little puzzled. "Is this made for a guest? Your guest's figure is similar to mine. "
Feng Xiuzhu lowered her head. The dim yellow street lamp shone on half of her face. A lock of long hair fell beside her ear and danced weakly in the wind, adding to her delicateness. "This coat … is made for you!"
After she finished speaking, she turned around and ran back into the house.
Mo Dongyang looked at her back view and was momentarily speechless.
Mi Xaing 'er was not in a hurry. She did not say a word and stood in the wind with him.
After a while, Mo Dongyang smiled sheepishly. "This Feng Xiuzhu is really interesting …"
He took the opportunity to wrap the coat tightly around his body.
Mi Xaing 'er looked at him from the corner of her eyes. She did not comment and spoke indifferently as if she was talking about her own affairs. "After Yun Jingting and I got together, I kept thinking … the fate of people together is really amazing. People used to say that if you cultivate for a hundred years, you can cross the same boat; if you cultivate for a thousand years, you can sleep on the same pillow.
Mo Dongyang sighed. "Of course it's true! There are so many people in the world. How did the two of you end up together? "
"After I broke up with him, I realized that when two people are together, they should cherish every second and every minute. Because even if the things that you naturally have now seem to be firmly in your hands, no one knows when fate will take a big turn and mercilessly take everything away from you."
She did not want to say anything more!
There was no need to pester him!
Feelings … go figure it out yourself!
Mo Dongyang lowered his head and carefully pondered over her words … The quiet moonlight stretched their silhouettes into long and short silhouettes.
The next morning …
Mi Xaing 'er arrived at the Provincial Party Committee's office as promised.
Mo Dongyang consciously followed behind her. Looking at her steady footsteps and calm posture, he could not help but admire her … It was not easy for a 20-year-old girl to have such poise in front of a provincial leader.
When the two of them entered the office … they looked up and saw that there were not many people in the office. Although there were only three of them, the atmosphere was more solemn. Ni Wenbin sat behind a U-shaped desk while Tong Che and Director Wang from the Construction Hall sat on either side of him.
The secretary led the two of them to their seats, then closed the door and left.
Ni Wenbin smiled and spoke first, "Mi Xaing 'er, our provincial government is very efficient. Ever since you raised those conditions, we went back and had a serious meeting. After some research, we came up with the following conclusions and were ready to report to you today!"
Although his tone was polite, the meaning behind his words was very obvious … This was the provincial government's unanimous decision and there was no way to change it.
Mi Xaing 'er did not say much and nodded graciously. "Okay then, I'm listening."
"First, it's about the fourth construction team that you want to establish! This is the first case in our province. We studied it seriously and based on the principle of promoting economic reform, we basically agreed. However, we also have a few conditions! "
Agreed?
Mi Xaing 'er was very happy!
However, her face was as calm as water and she spoke slowly, "What are the conditions? Please speak! "
"First … the city construction funds that the Chen Family promised must be transferred immediately!"
"Okay! No problem! "
Money made the world go round!
If there was no money, then there was no need to talk about anything!
Ni Wenbin continued, "Second, the professional qualifications of your construction team must be recognized by the relevant departments! Only then can the quality of your future projects be guaranteed! "
"Okay!"
"Third, regarding the personnel of your construction team, our provincial government will not be responsible for their expenses! In the future, we will not be responsible for your projects and construction materials. In short, you are the fourth construction team in name, a state-run system, but in reality, you are just external staff and responsible for your own profits and losses! "
Responsible for their own profits and losses?
To put it simply, all of you are raised by your stepmother!
If you have the ability, go and start your own projects. If you find a project, don't ask the government for materials. We will not be responsible for the company and the workers. If you can do it, do it. If you can't, disband!
Mi Xaing 'er hesitated for a moment.
Everything else was easy, but that era was a planned economy. Without the government's approval and quota, there was no way to get steel, cement, or bricks.
Mo Dongyang also considered this point and could not help but say, "If your government does not support us, how can we …"
Ni Wenbin smiled and did not wait for him to finish. "This is our final decision. Mi Xaing 'er, go back and think about it? I won't see you out! "
He did not even talk to Mo Dongyang.
They were not on the same level.
He called for his secretary, "Xiao Liu, see the guest out."
The secretary pushed the door open and stood politely at the side.
Mi Xaing 'er did not seem to see it and continued to sit at the table.
She raised her eyebrows slightly. "Leaders, I don't need to go back and think about it. I have the final say in Chen Corporation! My decision … is the final decision! "
Domineering!
In the first place!
What was there to think about?
Before she came, she had already gone through all kinds of situations in her mind a thousand times.
Moreover …
She had even thought of a countermeasure.
To put it bluntly … she was a little businesswoman. "Governor Ni, I agree to all your conditions! Our company's funds can also be invested immediately. In return, I am willing to increase the investment by 40%! "
40%?
That was a large sum of money!
It was an absolute temptation!
