After leaving Zhou Mingfang's house, Chen Xing called Wu Gang. He had informed Wu Gang in advance before he came to the provincial capital in the morning. Wu Gang also said that he would come to Jiang City from Kaiyuan County. Although Kaiyuan County was relatively remote, Wu Gang arrived in Jiang City earlier than Chen Xing. Because Chen Xing had to go to Zhou Mingfang's place first, Wu Gang and Zeng Jing were waiting for Chen Xing with hungry stomachs. Chen Xing said that he had lunch at Zhou Mingfang's place just now, but in fact, his stomach was still empty. When he arrived at the roadside, he stopped a taxi and went straight to the restaurant where Wu Gang and Zeng Jing were.
Wu Gang, who was already a little burly, looked even fatter. This was Chen Xing's first impression when he saw Wu Gang. "Brother Wu, is your belly getting bigger like the official hat on your head?" Chen Xing smiled and patted Wu Gang's belly. "What a big beer belly!"
"Alas, I have no choice. I have too many social engagements and lack of exercise. It's no wonder that I don't have a big belly. My wife at home said that if my belly keeps growing, the bed board will collapse because of me." Wu Gang smiled bitterly and rubbed his round belly. Wu Gang also felt a little helpless. The next moment, Wu Gang looked at Chen Xing and pretended to be angry. "Chen Xing, look at you. The moment you come, you expose my shortcomings. My good mood is ruined by you."
"That's my fault." Chen Xing looked at Wu Gang and joked, "I'm just telling the truth. Brother Wu, tell me, is your belly bigger than the last time I saw you?"
The two joked. Chen Xing turned his head and looked around. He felt strange and said, "Didn't you just say that Zeng Jing was coming? Why don't I see her now?"
She reckoned that she still had to wait for a while. She had clearly said that she would arrive soon, but she did not know what had delayed her. Wu Gang shook his head with a smile. Why don't I call her again and ask?
No need to call, I'm already here. Zeng Jing's voice rang out from outside the door. Chen Xing and Wu Gang heard the voice and looked over. Who else could it be other than Zeng Jing, who was dressed in a handsome police uniform? They saw a man standing beside Zeng Jing, who looked about the same age as Chen Xing. His resolute face and slightly tanned skin made people unconsciously think of him.
Chen Xing's first impression of this man was that of a 'tough guy'.
Who is this? Chen Xing and Wu Gang spoke almost at the same time.
How is it? You don't recognize me, right? Zeng Jing said half-jokingly. Then he introduced seriously, "This is my wife, Jiang Yi. Like me, we are both in the Criminal Police Unit. You can call him Old Jiang."
Chen Xing and Wu Gang finally understood. Wu Gang, who was more talkative, already said, "It seems that Zeng Jing is a rabbit eating the grass near its nest. But looking at the two of you standing together, they really make a good couple, kind of like the Black and White Ghost Duo."
Brother Wu. Zeng Jing glared at Wu Gang angrily. Then he smiled helplessly and said, "Wu Gang, if I have a chance to see my sister-in-law, I will definitely complain to her about you."
"Don't, I'm just telling the truth." Wu Gang thought of the joke that Chen Xing had made with him just now. Now he used the same joke on Zeng Jing. He and Chen Xing looked at each other and both of them laughed out loud.
"You two are really strange." Zeng Jing looked at Chen Xing and Wu Gang in confusion. He turned his head and was about to introduce them to his husband. Jiang Yi smiled and said, "I think this is Brother Wu Gang, and that is Brother Chen Xing." Because Zeng Jing had already mentioned Wu Gang and Chen Xing to Jiang Yi before he came, Jiang Yi had a general impression of them. Now that he heard Zeng Jing talking to Wu Gang first, he quickly knew who was who.
Jiang Yi's forthright character made him and Wu Gang hit it off very quickly. The two of them sat together and had already started chatting. Chen Xing and Zeng Jing seemed to be superfluous.
"Brother Wu, I think you don't need to eat lunch today. You are full talking to Old Jiang today." Chen Xing smiled and shook his head. "Sister Zeng, let's not care about them. We can order our own food."
"Okay, I think they don't need to eat. Let's order enough for the two of us and let them go hungry." Zeng Jing seemed to be a little jealous of her husband talking to Wu Gang so well. She called her husband by his name. "Jiang Yi, you don't even talk to me so much at home. You have so much to talk to a man, right?"
"Men talk to each other. What do you know?" Jiang Yi curled his lips disapprovingly. "Women shouldn't interrupt when men talk."
"Well, I think you want to turn the world upside down. I haven't taught you a lesson for a few days, and you are itching for a beating." Zeng Jing's face changed. As she spoke, she rolled up her sleeves and pretended to stand up.
Wu Gang, who was sitting opposite, saw this and thought that Zeng Jing was angry. He didn't know the relationship between the couple. Wu Gang was really afraid that he would cause the couple to quarrel. "Zeng Jing, don't. I just want to talk to your husband. Look at how anxious you are. Your husband used to be a soldier and we have a common language. That's why we started chatting. Look at how anxious you are. Are you afraid that I will snatch your husband away? Let me tell you seriously, I don't do gay things."
It would have been better if Wu Gang hadn't opened his mouth. The moment he opened his mouth, Zeng Jing choked and rolled her eyes. "Brother Wu, you really don't know how old you are. I give up."
"Brother Wu, don't mind her. She is always like this. She likes to joke. Besides, we are men. Why should we be afraid of a woman?" Jiang Yi smiled and patted his chest. "I am a man after all."
"Tsk, Jiang Yi, you are really itching for a beating today." Zeng Jing really stood up.
"What do you want to do? What do you want to do? Have you forgotten our division of labor? I will listen to you during working hours. But during non-working hours, you have to listen to me. I am the head of the family." Jiang Yi abruptly stood up as well. Not to be outdone, he stared back at his wife. Both of them stared at each other as if they were cross-eyed, staring at each other.
"Fine, you are right. During non-working hours, you are the boss." Zeng Jing snorted and sat down.
Both Chen Xing and Wu Gang looked at Zeng Jing and his wife in astonishment. The way the young couple got along with each other made them feel a little funny. Chen Xing also couldn't associate Zeng Jing with a mother. Shaking her head with a smile, Chen Xing thought that it was lucky that Zeng Jing's child was taken care of by her parents. Otherwise, if she had to take care of it herself, she might be so flustered that she couldn't even tell whether it was a boy or a girl.
Perhaps this was a unique way for them to relieve stress. Chen Xing looked at Zeng Jing and Jiang Yi, who were about to quarrel with each other a moment ago, but now they were smiling. Chen Xing was a little envious. Jiang Yi seemed to be about the same age as him, but in fact, he should be a few years older than him. He and Zeng Jing both worked in the Municipal Criminal Police Unit, but Zeng Jing was the captain of the Criminal Police Unit. No other man would be able to accept working under his wife. Even if he could accept this situation in the short term, as long as he was a man, he would feel uncomfortable. The way they got along with each other might be a special way for them to adjust their relationship as husband and wife. Chen Xing thought to himself.
"By the way, Sister Zeng, how's your job transfer going? I asked you last time, but there seemed to be no result." Chen Xing suddenly thought of Zeng Jing's job transfer. They had studied together at the Party School, and those who should be promoted had been promoted. Those who were not promoted already knew the result. Only Zeng Jing's job transfer seemed to have no result.
"Yes, something must be stuck, so there has been no result." Zeng Jing was stunned for a moment. He smiled casually and said, "Maybe the higher-ups think I'm too young and want me to practice more."
Chen Xing noticed that when he mentioned this, Jiang Yi, who was sitting next to Wu Gang, looked a little angry. Jiang Yi gritted his teeth slightly, as if there was something very angry. This made Chen Xing feel strange. Thinking of the previous times when he asked Zeng Jing, Zeng Jing always gave the same answer, Chen Xing couldn't help but feel suspicious. "Sister Zeng, you don't seem to be telling me the truth."
"Yes, Zeng Jing, if you encounter any difficulties, just tell us. Even three heads are better than one. We will give you some advice. If we can help, it will be the best. If we can't, we can at least tell you a few jokes to relieve your boredom." Wu Gang said with a smile. Wu Gang also saw the expression on Jiang Yi's face clearly.
"Actually, it's really nothing. This kind of job transfer is decided by the higher-ups. It's useless to worry about it. It's better not to think about it. If you think too much, it will only add to your troubles." Zeng Jing smiled and shook his head.
Jiang Yi, who had a straightforward character, couldn't hold back when he heard his wife say this. "Zeng Jing, there's nothing to hide. It's all because of that Lin Mao. That son of a bitch. If one day his father falls, I will beat him so hard that even his parents won't be able to recognize him." Jiang Yi said and waved his fist fiercely.
"Lin Mao?" "How did he get involved?" Chen Xing looked at Zeng Jing in surprise. Here, he was one of the people who had a grudge with Lin Mao. "Sister Zeng, what does your job transfer have to do with him?"
"How can it have nothing to do with him? This son of a bitch is coveting …" "Sigh, I don't even know what to say." Jiang Yi hit the table angrily. "Forget it, Brother Wu, Brother Chen Xing, let's not talk about this. Zeng Jing is right. It's annoying to talk about this. It's better not to add to our troubles. If we talk about it, I'm afraid I can't help but have the urge to hit someone."
Chen Xing looked at Jiang Yi and then looked at the silent Zeng Jing. He was more and more confused. "Sister Zeng, if it's someone else I don't know, it's not good for me to ask. But since it has something to do with Lin Mao, I really can't ignore it. You're really something. The last time I asked you, you hid it from me. I remember that I told you that I had a grudge with Lin Mao. At that time, you didn't even tell me the truth. You really don't treat me as a friend."
At this moment, Chen Xing finally remembered the day when Zhang Ningning first arrived in Jianghai. At that time, he also went to the provincial finance department to run the funds for the shanty town reconstruction project. Just now, when he came out of the provincial finance department, he met Zhang Ningning who called him. That afternoon, they went shopping together. Along with Zhang Ningning's two cousins and Wang Zheng, who she didn't like. As a result, Lin Mao wanted to do something to him that day, but he hit an iron plate. Chen Xing still remembered Wang Zheng's unforgiving look.
With Wang Zheng's power, if he didn't let go of this matter, it would not be difficult to find Lin Mao behind it. It was just that he didn't know whether Wang Zheng had investigated in the end. Although Chen Xing was 100% sure that the person behind the scenes was Lin Mao, he would not tell this kind of thing to Wang Zheng. Wang Zheng also didn't like him. Maybe he and Lin Mao would get together, and the two of them would like to see each other, then he would be looking for trouble for himself.
Why, Brother Chen Xing, do you have a grudge with Lin Mao? What exactly is going on? Tell me quickly. When Jiang Yi heard Chen Xing's words, he became interested and couldn't wait to look at Chen Xing.
Chen Xing looked at him with amusement. This Jiang Yi was also a clever person. At this moment, he didn't hide anything and told him about that afternoon and the several conflicts he had with Lin Mao.
This son of a b * tch almost hit someone with his car, and he still wanted to bite back. When Jiang Yi heard that Chen Xing was almost hit by Lin Mao, who was drunk, his eyes immediately widened. Even his anger towards Lin Mao on a daily basis gushed out at this time. He said angrily, "Zeng Jing, in my opinion, we should also learn from this insidious son of a b * tch and play dirty tricks behind the scenes. Lin Mao hides behind the scenes and instructs people to play dirty, but we can't do that either. Many brothers in the team have long been unhappy with him. In my opinion, we should secretly keep an eye on this guy's whereabouts. When he is drunk one day, we can take advantage of that time to teach him a lesson. At that time, he won't even know who is targeting him until he is stupid.
Alright, don't come up with that stupid idea. " Zeng Jing smiled helplessly. It was better to be safe than sorry. If he found out, then we would be in big trouble. As long as we still want to work for the public security, we can't do anything to him. If he wants to deal with us, he has many ways, and we will only suffer.
Tsk, I say, what are you talking about? I don't understand. Who on earth is this Lin Mao? Look at all of you filled with righteous indignation. To be so bad to this extent, he has some ability. " Wu Gang said curiously. He took turns to look at Chen Xing and the others with a puzzled face.
Hmph, this Lin Mao is more than capable. He's so bad that he's rotten to the core. In the entire Jiang City Public Security System, countless young girls who just entered the police force have been harmed by him. The most infuriating thing is that this scumbag doesn't even have a good time with married women. He's continuously created several scandals and caused the breakup of some people's families. Not to mention the brothers from other detachments, nine out of ten of our brothers from the Criminal Investigation Detachment want to beat him up. If it wasn't for the fact that his father is the Chief of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, he would probably be dead on the streets by now.
Oh, so he is the son of the director. Wu Gang suddenly understood. No wonder all of you are so angry, but still can't do anything to him. If all of you want to stay in the police force, you really can't offend him too much. But what kind of person is your director? Is he just going to watch his son do whatever he wants and not care about it?
Care my ass. If he could care about it, this bastard wouldn't be so bad. I think that Director Lin is just taking the side of the evildoer. Jiang Yi said angrily.
Hearing her husband talking so unscrupulously, Zeng Jing hurriedly looked out of the door and scolded him. Jiang Yi, keep your voice down. The walls have ears. What if someone hears you?
Chen Xing looked at the furious Jiang Yi and thought of what he said just now about Lin Mao not letting go of married women. He suddenly understood. Wasn't Zeng Jing in front of him a very attractive woman, especially after she had given birth to a child? Although she didn't look like a qualified mother, the charm of a young married woman was very attractive. According to Jiang Yi and Zeng Jing's description of Lin Mao's character, it would be strange if Lin Mao would let go of a woman like Zeng Jing. No wonder Zeng Jing didn't mention this to him before. It turned out that it was because of shame. He didn't want to mention it. Just now, Jiang Yi stopped talking halfway.
This Lin Mao is really a scourge. Why didn't God take this scumbag away earlier? Chen Xing said angrily.
If God could really work, there would only be good people and no bad people in this society. Jiang Yi smiled bitterly.
Sister Zeng, you were able to attend the Party School before. There should be some leaders in your bureau who appreciated you. Lin Mao is just the son of a bureau chief, not a real bureau chief. Could he intervene in the appointment of personnel in your bureau? Chen Xing was puzzled.
I was able to attend the Party School because of the recommendation of Deputy Bureau Chief Zheng of our bureau. He is in charge of criminal investigation work and he took good care of me. Later, he also revealed that he wanted me to take on an important task in the sub-bureau. The bureau has agreed, but in the end, there was some opposition in the bureau. Anyway, I don't know the details. Until one day, that bastard Lin Mao came to me and said that as long as I followed his heart, I could get rid of the opposition in the bureau. Otherwise, I would never be able to be the Deputy Bureau Chief of the sub-bureau.
It was not until then that I realized that he must be behind all this. " At this moment, Chen Xing frowned. Zeng Jing's words made him no longer have any doubts. For a moment, he felt anxious. He had no one in the public security system who could help him. It was obviously not feasible to go to Zhou Mingfang for this matter. Zhou Mingfang did not know Zeng Jing. If he went to him rashly, Zhou Mingfang would only think that he had no sense of propriety.
At this moment, Chen Xing did not know what to do. Glancing at Zeng Jing, who seemed not to care much, Chen Xing suddenly felt that his power was still so small. After becoming the Deputy Secretary of the County Party Committee and acting County Magistrate, Chen Xing thought that he was a big shot at such a young age. In fact, he was just a frog at the bottom of a well. He might be a big shot in Xi Men, but in Hai City and Jiang City, he was nothing. He was still so small and insignificant.
"Alas, that Lin Mao you are talking about, his father is the Director of the Public Security Bureau of Jiang City. Among the people I know in Jiang City, I really can't find anyone who can talk to him." Wu Gang also sighed. When he came to Jiang City, he realized how small his position was. There were really a lot of Deputy Bureau Chiefs here.
"Forget it, Brother Wu, and Chen Xing, don't worry about me. I don't care much about it. As the saying goes, if you get it, it's your luck. If you lose it, it's your fate. Just get over it." Zeng Jing smiled carelessly.
Jiang Yi opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end, he sighed helplessly and sat aside. Jiang Yi actually hoped that his wife could be transferred to a sub-bureau. This was not only a promotion, but it would also help her go further in the future. The most important thing was that Zeng Jing was not in the crime squad. They didn't have to face each other all the time, especially when they were in a relationship of superior and subordinate. Even though they got along well with each other, it was because they had only been married for two or three years. No one knew whether they would be as harmonious as they were now in the future. If Zeng Jing could be transferred out of the crime squad, it would not only be a good thing for Zeng Jing, but also for Jiang Yi. It would be good for the relationship between the couple.
"By the way, I don't know if I can make use of the relationship with Zhang Ningning." Chen Xing suddenly thought of Zhang Ningning. With Zhang Guohua's status, as long as he gave people a slight illusion that Zeng Jing had a relationship with the Zhang Family, he would be able to add a lot of help to Zeng Jing. Chen Xing thought secretly.
Zhang Ningning was still in Jiang City. Originally, he planned to contact Zhang Ningning at night. At this moment, Chen Xing was thinking that if he introduced Zeng Jing to Zhang Ningning, would they become friends?
"Hey, isn't this that guy? I was wondering why his voice sounded so strange." The door was pushed open with a creak. An ear-piercing voice suddenly came from outside the door. Chen Xing frowned. Why did this annoying voice sound so familiar? Opposite him, Jiang Yi stared at the back of Chen Xing. His expression changed slightly. He turned his head to the side and breathed heavily. A hint of annoyance flashed across Zeng Jing's face.
Chen Xing had already guessed who it was. He turned his head and looked. As expected, it was Lin Mao. He frowned again. Chen Xing couldn't help but curse his bad luck. Why did it seem that every time he came to the provincial capital, he would run into Lin Mao, including the time Lin Mao hid behind his back and played dirty tricks. Thinking about it, he had run into Lin Mao five times in the provincial capital. Lin Mao was really haunting him.
"Childe Lin, don't you know it's impolite to open the door of someone else's box?" Chen Xing glanced at Lin Mao with a fake smile. He glanced at the women beside him and said in a sarcastic tone, "Every time I see Childe Lin, he is accompanied by different beauties. Childe Lin is really lucky with women.
"Mayor Chen, you don't understand. It's a waste to be a playboy. It's interesting to live like me. What's the point of being an official in the system? You can't do this, you can't do that. There are so many restrictions in life and it's boring. Why don't you learn to be a playboy like me? Isn't it more free and happy?" Lin Mao squinted his eyes slightly and looked at Chen Xing with a faint smile. "Oh, I almost forgot. Mayor Chen, you seem to have been promoted recently. You are now the acting mayor?" "Tut-tut, you are really fast. Among the young cadres in Jiang City, few are as capable as you, Mayor Huang. It's really admirable."
Although Lin Mao was mocking Chen Xing, Wu Gang, Zeng Jing, and the others beside him were stunned. They hadn't heard that Chen Xing had become the acting mayor. At this moment, after hearing Lin Mao's words, they looked at Chen Xing in surprise. Chen Xing was too fast. How long had he been in Ximen? How could he become the acting mayor so soon? It was only a matter of time before he became the official mayor.
Childe Lin was in Jiang City, so he was really well-informed. Chen Xing glanced at Lin Mao and responded to him verbally, but he was confused in his heart. Lin Mao was still as arrogant as ever at this moment. It was reasonable to say that Lin Mao's act of backstabbing him had also indirectly offended Zhang Ningning and the others. This matter even alarmed Governor Zhang's secretary and the people from the Provincial Public Security Department. After that, someone would definitely tell this matter to Lin Mao. Lin Mao should be frightened and should not be so arrogant. Chen Xing stared at Lin Mao and was confused in his heart.
"It's not that I'm well-informed, but I naturally have to pay more attention to your affairs, Mayor Chen. Otherwise, how can I live up to our friendship?" "Am I right, Mayor Chen?" A trace of ruthlessness flashed in the depths of Lin Mao's eyes. He stared at Chen Xing and thought to himself, "Chen Xing, don't think that you're so great just because you know the daughter of the governor. Humph, do you think I don't know the identity of that woman? If you get close to her, you won't have a good time either. There are still people above you who are eyeing you covetously. I hope you don't die too soon, or I will lose an interesting" playmate "."
He vaguely felt that there seemed to be a hidden meaning in Lin Mao's words. Chen Xing didn't know that Lin Mao had secretly plotted against him. Not only was he not unlucky, but after Wang Zheng learned that Lin Mao was targeting Chen Xing, he took the initiative to find Lin Mao and asked Lin Mao to help him keep an eye on Chen Xing's every move. He also secretly instructed Lin Mao to deal with Chen Xing. Lin Mao was reluctant at the beginning, but he was overjoyed when he learned Wang Zheng's identity and agreed without thinking. With Wang Zheng as his backer, no matter whether Chen Xing was related to Zhou Mingfang or Chen Xing knew Zhang Ningning, Lin Mao no longer had any scruples. Today, he met Chen Xing here again. Lin Mao had already begun to plan in his heart that he would find someone to keep an eye on Chen Xing later. He was ready to teach Chen Xing a lesson when he left Jiang City to make up for the regret last time.
Looking over Chen Xing, Lin Mao's eyes stopped on Zeng Jing. His eyes were slightly glowing. Zeng Jing was more attractive to him in uniform. He had long imagined that he could have sex with Zeng Jing in bed in a police uniform. Unfortunately, he failed many times. When he wanted to force himself on him, Zeng Jing's skills were beyond his expectation. Once he just wanted to touch Zeng Jing's little face and take advantage of him, but his fingers were almost broken. If he hadn't begged for mercy in the end, Zeng Jing might have broken his fingers.
"Zeng Jing, I didn't expect that you and County Magistrate Chen knew each other. This is really strange. When did you hook up with each other?" As Lin Mao said, his eyes moved back and forth between Chen Xing and Zeng Jing, as if he was speaking seriously. Zeng Jing was so angry that his chest trembled violently. He almost wanted to slap Lin Mao, but he managed to hold it back and said angrily, "Lin Mao, no ivory can come out of your dog's mouth."
"Haha, Zeng Jing, have you ever seen ivory coming out of a dog's mouth?" "I really haven't seen it. Do you want to bring one for me to have a look? Let's study it in the room at night." Lin Mao smiled and stared straight at Zeng Jing's upper body. Just now, his breasts were surging. Lin Mao's eyes suddenly lit up and he praised in his heart. "The buttons on his chest are about to burst open. I wonder how much material is inside. If I can touch it, how comfortable it will be." Lin Mao fantasized in his heart and his saliva almost flowed out.
"Lin Mao, don't go too far. Do you really think that no one in Jiang City can deal with you?" "Bang!" Jiang Yi, who couldn't bear it anymore, slammed the table and stood up. He angrily scolded Lin Mao and gritted his teeth.
"Haha, you are right. There are indeed people in Jiang City who can deal with me, and there are many of them. Not to mention the sons of the leaders of the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial government, there are many sons of the leaders of the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government of Jiang City who can deal with me. It's a pity that you don't know them. If you have the ability, find one to deal with me, or you can try to deal with me yourself." Lin Mao looked at Jiang Yi provocatively. Lin Mao didn't feel guilty at all for flirting with Zeng Jing in front of Jiang Yi. On the contrary, the perverted excitement stimulated his brain nerves. He was in a state of excitement, just like a mad dog, ready to bite at any time.
"At most, I will throw away my police uniform. Do you really think that I dare not beat you up?" "Don't think that you are so great just because your father is the Director of the Public Security Bureau. You will have your retribution sooner or later." Jiang Yi took a big step forward and was about to hit him, but he was held back by Zeng Jing. "Jiang Yi, calm down. Why are you so calculative with such a person who is worse than a beast?"
"Hey, I am worse than a beast?" Lin Mao looked at Zeng Jing mockingly. "Zeng Jing, you said that I am worse than a beast. If your husband calculates with me, isn't he worse than a beast?"
"Lin Mao, this is our box. When are you going to stop being so presumptuous?" Chen Xing's face was a little gloomy. He stared at Lin Mao and said in a low voice.
"Fine, I will give face to Mayor Chen today. A great man will not calculative with a lowly man." Lin Mao smiled proudly. He hugged the beauty beside him and swaggered out. "Oh, I am hungry. Baby, let's go eat."
