Time ticked by. Most of the time, Chen Xing was talking, and Huang Xingrui was listening. Huang Xingrui occasionally interrupted and asked a question, but he only asked about some simple details. He didn't put on an interrogative attitude.
The female staff member who was taking notes on the side kept writing, and the sound of her pen landing on the paper was endless. She turned page after page of the diary.
More than an hour later, the conversation officially ended. Huang Xingrui didn't intend to stay any longer. He stood up directly and said, "Mayor Chen, sorry to disturb you tonight. Thank you for your cooperation.
It's what you should do. Everyone is here for work. " Chen Xing smiled and glanced at Huang Xingrui. "Minister Huang, you don't want to sit down?
No, it's not early now. I don't want to disturb Mayor Chen's rest. " Huang Xingrui shook his head. After a brief farewell to Chen Xing, he left with his people.
Chen Xing didn't stop until he saw Huang Xingrui and his people to the elevator. Looking at Huang Xingrui, Chen Xing finally couldn't help but ask, "Minister Huang, may I ask one more thing? Is this case related to foreign affairs?
Well, it's related to foreign affairs. " Huang Xingrui hesitated for a moment, but still answered. In fact, there was no need to keep it a secret, because the nature of their security department was more focused on foreign espionage cases. It was normal for Chen Xing to have this question. Moreover, this case was almost at the final stage. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come to talk to Chen Xing. So it was okay to answer Chen Xing.
Hearing Huang Xingrui's answer, although Chen Xing had already guessed it and was mentally prepared, he still couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat.
As they talked, the elevator door closed slowly. Chen Xing finally nodded slightly to Huang Xingrui to say goodbye.
After the elevator door closed, Chen Xing returned.
After returning to his room, Chen Xing stood there quietly for a while. When he saw the kettle on the table, Chen Xing picked up a large glass and filled it to the brim. He tilted his head back and gulped down the water in one gulp. Only then did Chen Xing gasped for breath. At this moment, Chen Xing felt as if he had vented out all the emotions he had been holding back. His heart felt a lot more relaxed.
"The imperialists are still trying to destroy me." Chen Xing murmured to himself. Although he had heard of many espionage cases and occasionally read some highly confidential reports from the internal reference, those things didn't happen around him. It felt as if they were far away from him. However, this time, it happened around him and even he was almost implicated. Thinking about it now, Chen Xing felt a chill on his back and he almost broke out in a cold sweat.
Chen Xing thought about every interaction he had with Lin Qing. In the past, he didn't think much of it. But now that he thought about it, Lin Qing seemed to have an ulterior motive every time she interacted with him. He was afraid that he had long become a target of her 'assimilation'. If he had succumbed to her seduction, he would probably be done for. Especially recently, Lin Qing wanted to help him fight for the position of the secretary of Rivertown. Chen Xing was really tempted and almost agreed to it. Luckily, he rejected it in the end. Now that he thought about it, it was really too thrilling.
After a long silence, Chen Xing gradually calmed down. Although he appeared to be calm in front of Huang Xingrui, after seeing Huang Xingrui and his team off, Chen Xing realized that he was not as calm as he looked. It was only now that he slowly calmed down.
Usually, Chen Xing could ignore Huang Xingrui's department. However, if it really involved him, Huang Xingrui's department would be very scary.
Shaking his head, Chen Xing wondered who would be involved this time. Looking at Lin Qing's identity and thinking about the means she used to get in touch with him, it was really hard to guard against her. Who would have thought that such a beautiful woman, who was also an executive of a multinational company and had a glamorous identity, would actually be a spy?
Since it had nothing to do with him, Chen Xing sat alone for a while and didn't want to think about it anymore. He couldn't afford to worry about this kind of thing, and it was not his turn to worry about it. It was better for him to take a hot bath and sleep early.
He got up and went into the room to get some clothes. Then, Chen Xing's phone rang. Seeing that it was a call from Zhang Ran, Chen Xing was stunned and picked up the phone.
Chen Xing, what are you doing? The phone was connected. Zhang Ran's teasing voice sounded.
Nothing much, just preparing to take a bath. Chen Xing answered casually.
Oh, you want to take a bath? Zhang Ran suddenly laughed. What a coincidence, I'm also taking a bath. It's a big bathtub for two. Unfortunately, I'm the only one soaking in it. I've been soaking for almost half an hour and I'm getting bored. It would be great if there were two people soaking together, chatting and having a heart-to-heart talk.
You can find someone to soak with you, and you won't be bored. Chen Xing twitched his mouth.
It was easy to find someone, but the key was that they were not someone he was interested in. Zhang Ran said softly with a smile. Chen Xing, why don't you come with me?
Forget about me, but what's our relationship? Zhang Ran, if we're still friends, I'll kindly advise you to find a man and live a good life. Chen Xing frowned slightly.
You don't need to worry about my personal life. If you don't want to come, then forget it. You don't have to lecture me. We're all adults, and everyone has their own way of living. No one has the right to criticize others.
Well, you're right. No one has the right to criticize others. Chen Xing nodded and said, "If there's nothing else, I'll hang up first."
After saying that, Chen Xing hung up the phone directly. Thinking of Zhang Ran's current situation, Chen Xing couldn't help but sigh. Perhaps Zhang Ran's character had gradually changed after living a luxurious life and a superior family background. The family environment played a great role in determining a person's character. Sometimes, even if one didn't want to change, he or she would be influenced unconsciously. Zhang Ran had rich and powerful parents like Zhang Yiping and Zhang Guoli. It was impossible for her to live an ordinary life.
Chen Xing thought of this and was suddenly stunned. Wait, didn't Lin Qing also contact Zhang Yiping?
Thinking of Zheng Zhongqiang saying that Lin Qing and Zhang Yiping also contacted each other, Chen Xing's heart beat wildly. Could Zhang Yiping have fallen for them? Thinking of the fact that Zhang Yiping could stand out among the many strong competitors for the position of Jiang City's Secretary, Chen Xing's face gradually became serious. He didn't even dare to think further. If Zhang Yiping's transfer to Jiang City was really related to Lin Qing, then Zhang Yiping really couldn't make a comeback.
Taking a step back, even if it had nothing to do with Lin Qing this time, what about before? Zhang Yiping and Lin Qing contacted each other. Maybe they knew each other before. Was there an abnormal relationship between them?
