In the evening, Chen Xing was still thinking about asking Wu Gang to find Zeng Jing in the morning. He didn't know whether Wu Gang had got anything from Zeng Jing. Eager to know the situation, Chen Xing called Wu Gang as soon as he got off work. However, what Chen Xing didn't expect was that when he called Wu Gang, Wu Gang was with Zeng Jing.
Wu Gang answered Chen Xing's call in the morning and arranged things before he returned to the city. When he came back, it was already past two o 'clock in the afternoon. He called Zeng Jing and asked him to come out. Because Zeng Jing was busy, they made an appointment in the evening.
Wu Gang didn't expect that Chen Xing would call him at this time. He didn't know the "subtle" relationship between Chen Xing and Zeng Jing, so he directly answered Chen Xing's call in front of Zeng Jing.
When Chen Xing heard that Zeng Jing was beside Wu Gang, he was stunned and was about to hang up the phone subconsciously. Suddenly, he heard Zeng Jing say, "Chen Xing, do you want to come out and have a chat with me?"
At this moment, Zeng Jing deliberately got close to Wu Gang and shouted into the phone. His voice was a little louder. Chen Xing heard it clearly on the phone and was a little stunned for a moment. Zeng Jing actually took the initiative to ask him to come over.
"Okay, I'll go over now." After a short daze, Chen Xing immediately nodded.
After a simple cleaning, Chen Xing left the office and took a car to the restaurant where Wu Gang and Zeng Jing had dinner. The two of them were in a private room. When Chen Xing arrived, the dishes on the table were almost all on the table. However, the two of them didn't start eating. Instead, they deliberately waited for Chen Xing to come over.
"Why are you waiting for me? You can eat first, or the dishes will be cold." Chen Xing glanced at the dishes on the table and said.
Anyway, we're not hungry. It won't take long to wait for you. Wu Gang said with a smile as he beckoned Chen Xing and Zeng Jing. "Come on, hurry up and eat, or the dishes will get cold."
As Wu Gang spoke, he had already picked up his chopsticks. Obviously, the three of them would not treat each other as outsiders. Wu Gang directly picked up a mouthful of food and sent it to his mouth. Since I came to Zhaoliang County to work, we have less time to eat together.
You're a busy person now. I really have to cherish the opportunity to eat with you in the future. Zeng Jing teased.
Zeng Jing, don't just talk about me. It's the same for you. Now that you've become the branch chief, you might not have it easier than me. Wu Gang said with a smile. He was in a good mood. The three of them had met at the Party School. So many years had passed in a flash. Who would have thought that they would meet today? Wu Gang and Zeng Jing were both successful. As for Chen Xing, needless to say, he was already in a high position and was not at the same level as the other two.
But then again, it was entirely thanks to Chen Xing's help that he and Zeng Jing could have today's positions. Although he did not ask whether it was Chen Xing who arranged for Zeng Jing to become the branch chief this time, it was obvious that without Chen Xing's secret help, Zeng Jing could not have been so successful this time.
The three of them were talking and laughing. Wu Gang was also very emotional. When he met Chen Xing before, he had never thought that there would be such a day, let alone that Chen Xing would become his benefactor. The cause and effect of this world was so wonderful.
When Wu Gang and Zeng Jing were talking, he saw the look that Chen Xing threw at him. He immediately understood and thought of today's business. While they were talking, he changed the topic and asked with a smile, "Zeng Jing, if I remember correctly, today is your big day, isn't it?
But Zhao Mingcheng has been detained by the branch of Jiangfeng District. Without the groom, my wedding banquet can't be held. So today is actually not a big day, but a tragedy. " Zeng Jing smiled slightly.
Wu Gang didn't expect Zeng Jing to answer so directly. Originally, he planned to sound him out in a roundabout way. Now that Zeng Jing answered so quickly, Wu Gang was a little stunned and didn't know how to continue asking.
Chen Xing had been observing Zeng Jing silently. Zeng Jing had been avoiding him before, but today he took the initiative to call him over. Chen Xing was still confused. Although Zeng Jing called him over the phone through Wu Gang, Zeng Jing's attitude had obviously changed. Chen Xing couldn't help guessing what Zeng Jing was thinking.
Since entering the box, Chen Xing's eyes rarely left Zeng Jing. At this moment, hearing Zeng Jing's answer, Chen Xing took a deep look at him. "Zeng Jing, what's going on between you and Zhao Mingcheng? I don't think you two are normal lovers. Besides, even if this is a flash marriage, it's too strange."
"My relationship with Zhao Mingcheng is indeed a little special. We are just having a trial marriage." Zeng Jing explained. Facing Chen Xing's eyes, Zeng Jing's eyes were a little evasive. The explanation she gave was obviously not convincing. Not to mention Chen Xing, even Wu Gang didn't believe it.
"Zeng Jing, I've never seen a trial marriage like this." Wu Gang didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Hehe, as long as both of us can accept it, it's not a big deal." Zeng Jing smiled and pulled the bangs in front of her forehead to hide her expression. Then she turned to look at Chen Xing. Zeng Jing suddenly said, "Chen Xing, today, Zhao Mingcheng's company was raided by the tax bureau. It was your instruction, right?"
"Ah?" Chen Xing was stunned by the question. Zeng Jing's question was too sudden. Chen Xing was not mentally prepared at all. He didn't expect that Zeng Jing would think of him.
"It seems that it was you who did it. I was wondering why there was something fishy about it. The tax bureau went to investigate tax evasion, and even the public security department was dispatched directly. They even detained Zhao Mingcheng." Seeing Chen Xing's expression, Zeng Jing shook her head and smiled.
"Zeng Jing, I didn't say that I did it. Your judgment may not be accurate." Chen Xing came to his senses. He didn't deny it or admit it.
Chen Xing's answer was more like a cover up for Zeng Jing. Zeng Jing smiled helplessly and didn't know what to say. Zeng Jing was happy that Zhao Mingcheng was arrested. However, because of this, there were some uncontrollable factors between her and Zhao Mingcheng. Zeng Jing didn't know whether it was good or bad. Facing the future, Zeng Jing could only face it passively. When she chose to do that, she should have known that her future could not be good. Chen Xing might want to help her. However, this time, he did something bad with good intentions. Or maybe it couldn't be said that he did something bad with good intentions. It could only be said that he pushed her into a more uncontrollable situation.
"Zeng Jing, is it true that you were threatened by Zhao Mingcheng to marry you?" Wu Gang had been looking at Zeng Jing. He saw that Zeng Jing's expression was complicated, and there was no sign of anxiety on his face after knowing that his' fiancé 'had been arrested. Wu Gang couldn't help but wonder. Previously, he had thought that what Chen Xing said was impossible, but now, he was starting to believe it.
"Brother Wu, you think too much. I am a living man. If I don't want to, he won't force me with a knife." Zeng Jing smiled indifferently. No matter what Wu Gang and Chen Xing thought, Zeng Jing would undoubtedly not admit it.
