At around six or seven o 'clock in the evening, Zhang Guohua arrived in Hai City. In addition to Zhang Guohua's family, there was another important figure in the province, Chen Xing's old leader, Zhou Mingfang. The four of them first arrived at Ningdong Hotel. This hotel, which was under the name of the General Office of the Municipal Party Committee, had always been favored by Zhou Mingfang. The environment was quiet, and behind it was Hai City's famous Ganshui Lake. Its location was much better than the guesthouse of the Municipal Party Committee. When Zhou Mingfang was still working in Hai City, he often liked to sneak a break here to rest, especially during the summer solstice.
Zhou Mingfang's appearance at the hotel was really sensational news. Ningdong Hotel was under the name of the General Office of the Municipal Party Committee. Anything that happened here would be immediately reported to the Municipal Party Committee. Almost two minutes after Zhou Mingfang stepped into the hotel, Huang Kunming, the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, received the news that his predecessor, who had been promoted to the provincial organization minister, had arrived. What made Huang Kunming even more restless was that Zhou Mingfang came with Governor Zhang Guohua. Well, there were also two women, one old and one young, who looked like mother and daughter. Huang Kunming, who was still in the office, received the most detailed news.
He had to block the news! When Huang Kunming set off for Ningdong Hotel, he immediately gave such an order. No matter who knew that Zhou Mingfang and Zhang Guohua had come together, the news could not be spread any further. Huang Kunming obviously did not want others to know about this news. There was no reason for others to share this resource.
In fact, Huang Kunming did not need Huang Kunming's order at all. Hai City was the place where Zhou Mingfang once held the marshal's seal, so it was not an exaggeration to say that Zhou Mingfang was Zhou Mingfang's territory. Even if Zhou Mingfang was transferred away, his prestige here was still incomparable to Huang Kunming's. Moreover, Zhou Mingfang was promoted, not transferred to some cold yamen or retired to the second line. As long as Zhou Mingfang said something, there would be more people who would listen to him than Huang Kunming. This was also the reason why Huang Kunming wanted to slowly lean towards Zhou Mingfang. Without Zhou Mingfang's support, he could not do anything in Hai City as the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. Although he was currently fighting with Zhao Yiping, to put it bluntly, the two of them were just playing chess pieces in Zhou Mingfang's chess game.
Huang Kunming wanted to block the news, but Zhou Mingfang had actually ordered the person in charge of the hotel to keep the news confidential as soon as he entered the hotel. Well, there was no need to spread it except for the necessary people. The person in charge of the hotel naturally understood Zhou Mingfang's order. Other than Huang Kunming, who had received the news, only Zhao Fang, the deputy secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, knew about it. However, Zhao Fang had found out about it through another channel.
Of course, this matter could not be hidden from Qian Cheng, the director of the General Office of the Municipal Party Committee. The Ningdong Hotel was under the name of the General Office of the Municipal Party Committee. Obviously, the person in charge of the hotel also wanted to secretly inform Zhou Mingfang about this. Qian Cheng was also an old man who had been employed by Zhou Mingfang when he was in office. If Qian Cheng knew about it, it meant that Zhao Baojin, the secretary general of the Municipal Party Committee, also knew about it. This Chief Butler of the Municipal Party Committee used to serve Zhou Mingfang. Obviously, he was Zhou Mingfang's trusted follower since Huang Kunming did not replace him. After hearing the news, Zhao Baojin immediately went to the Ningdong Hotel.
After receiving the text message from Zhang Ningning, Chen Xing knew that Municipal Party Committee Municipal Party Committee Municipal Party Committee had arrived in Hai City. He was resting in the Ningdong Hotel for the time being and would come over later. He could not help but urge Huang Ming to prepare the banquet here as soon as possible, lest he had to wait for Zhang Guo Hua when he arrived. The time of the governor really could not be wasted.
"Chen Xing, don't worry. The chefs in our hotel are all first-class chefs. Early in the morning, I told them to treat this with 100% enthusiasm today. They will not let you down later." Huang Ming smiled and patted Chen Xing's shoulder. He was a little puzzled. "But you only prepared three tables of banquet today. Isn't this too little? As the county magistrate, I'm afraid it won't be enough even if you prepared ten or twenty tables of banquet."
"Hehe, I didn't invite people from the county, nor did I invite my personal friends. I only invited some relatives and the bride's parents. There are not many people, so there is no need to prepare too many banquets." Chen Xing smiled and narrowed his eyes slightly. "I even invited a special guest. I don't know if Zhao Qing's parents will come, and I even sent them an invitation."
"Damn, are you serious? You even invited Zhao Qing's parents?" Huang Ming was shocked. He stared at Chen Xing and looked him up and down carefully. "Chen Xing, do you have a fever or something? When Zhao Qing's mean mother was still a deputy mayor, she was arrogant and arrogant. Now she has been transferred to Hai City to be the mayor. You invited her here, aren't you asking for abuse? You have been sarcastic to her in the past. Do you want to be abused again?"
"I don't have a hobby of being abused." Chen Xing smiled and shook his head. "Old Huang, you will know later. Our restaurant may become famous tonight. You have to be mentally prepared."
"Ha, don't worry, I have a good mentality. Thanks to you, the business of this restaurant is actually very good. Fei Ren, Zhang Ping, and Yang Ming have all introduced many friends to our restaurant. There are also people from government agencies who have meals here. Our restaurant is not short of customers." Huang Ming grinned. "If it wasn't for the geographical restrictions, I really want to double the size of the restaurant. Sometimes, when business is good, there are no seats for the customers."
"Then you can open another branch in the city and divert some of the customers away." Chen Xing smiled casually. His eyes inadvertently swept out and saw Zhao Yiping's car coming over. The car had not stopped yet, but how could he not remember Zhao Yiping's face? Through the car window, Chen Xing was sure that it was her just by looking at the side profile of her face.
"Zhao Yiping is coming. Be careful with your words." Chen Xing turned his head and said to Huang Ming. Then, he went out to greet them. He still had to do the necessary etiquette.
Zhao Yiping and Zhao Guoli sat in the same car, while Zhao Qing and Sun Xiang sat in the other car. Tonight, the whole family was going to fight together. Chen Xing walked closer and saw Zhao Qing and Sun Xiang. He was a little surprised, but then he smiled. "It's good that they are all here. Tonight, I can vent my anger. Although I didn't do it myself, I can't say that my parents didn't want me to do it."
"It's really an honor for Mayor Zhao to come." Chen Xing walked up to Zhao Yiping. Except for the formal smile on his face, Chen Xing couldn't show any sincere enthusiasm for the mayor. His eyes swept over Zhao Guoli and Zhao Qing and Zhao Qing. Chen Xing smiled and nodded slightly. Today, his heart was already incomparably strong. Some things had already gone with the wind, dissipating on the earth like dust in the wind.
"The youngest county magistrate of Haicheng City is going to get engaged. Of course, I have to come to support. To be honest, I am really curious about the female lead. I can finally see her face later." Zhao Yiping smiled and glanced at Chen Xing. There was a touch of dissatisfaction in his tone. Zhao Yiping felt that Chen Xing deliberately showed off to her tonight.
"I won't let you down, Mayor Zhao." Chen Xing responded with a smile. He made a gesture to invite them in and led Zhao Yiping and his family in. When they passed by Zhao Qing, Zhao Qing's eyes were a little strange. Chen Xing was getting engaged. Perhaps Zhao Qing's heart was not as calm as he looked on the surface. As for Sun Xiang, he smiled at Chen Xing.
When Chen Shuiping and Zou Fang saw Zhao Yiping, they were still a little uncomfortable. When they sent the invitation to Zhao Yiping, they said that they wanted to satirize this great mayor, which was also the purpose of sending the invitation to Zhao Yiping. However, when Zhao Yiping was really in front of them, the couple did not have the courage to do so. After all, he was the mayor of a city. One of them worked in a public institution, while the other worked in an agency. They still felt a lot of pressure when facing the mayor. At least, they did not dare to mock him.
Zhao Yiping and Chen Xing's parents had never met before. If Zhao Qing had not reminded Zhao Yiping, Zhao Yiping would have ignored the two ordinary people standing in front of him. However, even if he knew it, Zhao Yiping just congratulated them and did not say anything else. He found a chair and sat down, looking around. Zhao Yiping was really curious about the girl Chen Xing was getting engaged to. According to her idea, Chen Xing sent them the invitation to show off. Obviously, the girl's family background was not bad. Otherwise, why would Chen Xing be so ostentatious?
"Mayor County Chen, which family did you marry? Why haven't I seen your face?" Sun Xiang sat beside Zhao Yiping and stared at Chen Xing, who was walking over, and asked with a smile. This was also what Zhao Yiping wanted to ask.
"Not yet. Please sit for a while. They will be here soon." Chen Xing smiled.
"Well, it seems that he is quite arrogant." Sun Xiang seemed to be talking to himself. His voice was loud enough for everyone to hear clearly. Chen Xing did not say anything and just laughed it off. Seeing that Chen Xing did not respond, Sun Xiang could not help but feel a little disappointed.
When Sun Xiang saw that Chen Xing did not respond, he could not help but feel a little disappointed. He had taken the initiative to come over tonight, so naturally, he would not be so kind as to congratulate Chen Xing. His wife and Chen Xing had a past in the past, so it was impossible for Sun Xiang to be happy about it. He could not be calculative with Zhao Qing over this matter. After all, it was something that happened before their marriage. In the past, whenever he met Chen Xing, he would smile amiably and not become enemies with Chen Xing. Sun Xiang's acting skills were superb. This time, when he heard that Chen Xing was getting engaged and even sent an invitation, Sun Xiang suddenly wanted to come over.
"Here it is. You will see it soon." Chen Xing glanced at Sun Xiang with a smile, and then looked at Zhao Yiping with the same meaningful gaze. "Mayor Zhao, I will go out to pick you up.
