Li Kaishan went around to Liang Jing and stared at Liang Jing. Looking at the little charming face with a little panic, Li Kaishan's eyes flashed a trace of sarcasm. Director Liang, you know Qin Peng, don't you?
Liang Jing was stunned and stared at Li Kaishan.
Mayor Li, I don't know who this person you are talking about is. Liang Jing took a deep breath and his eyes became calm.
Hey, isn't this person your classmate in primary school, middle school and high school? Li Kaishan was surprised and looked at Liang Jing. Didn't you two grow up together?
Liang Jing's heart skipped a beat. Li Kaishan's old but peaceful face looked so disgusting at this time. Liang Jing didn't need to think to know that Li Kaishan had secretly investigated her. She didn't know how she attracted Li Kaishan's attention. It was Zhang Lixing and others who had a grudge with Li Kaishan. Why did Li Kaishan stare at a woman like her?
Mayor Li, what do you want to say? Liang Jing looked at Li Kaishan.
I don't want to say anything. I just want to confirm whether you know Qin Peng or not. You said you didn't know him just now, so I felt strange. How could you forget your classmates for so many years? If I'm not mistaken, Qin Peng works in the Fengshan District Local Taxation Bureau. You seem to have promoted him to the section chief at the beginning of the year, right? Li Kaishan smiled, and his eyes showed that he had everything under control. He was completely different from the weakness and compromise he usually showed.
Li Kaishan smiled and looked at Liang Jing, who had been silent. Li Kaishan smiled and swayed with his hands behind his back. Director Liang, I won't talk about your relationship with Zhang Lixing, and I don't want to talk about it. But I think you should know what kind of person Zhang Lixing is. He promoted you to the position of the office director. You flatter him while getting intimate with your two little lovers. I don't know what Zhang Lixing will do if he knows it.
Mayor Li, please don't talk about it anymore. Liang Jing's expression finally softened. Li Kaishan hit her soft spot at once. Liang Jing couldn't keep calm anymore. She didn't need Li Kaishan to tell her what kind of person Zhang Lixing was. Liang Jing was very clear that Zhang Lixing was a narrow-minded and sinister villain who would seek revenge for the smallest grievance. She could become the office director because of her relationship with Zhang Lixing. Li Kaishan, the mayor, was controlled by Zhang Lixing. Personnel appointments in such important positions could only be arranged by Zhang Lixing, which was the reason why she could become the office director.
However, the price she paid was that she had an abnormal relationship with Zhang Lixing. In this matter, Liang Jing was passive at first. It was not until Zhang Lixing forced her with his power that Liang Jing finally gave in. "Since I can't avoid it, I might as well obey him. My body is nothing." This was Liang Jing's last thought. After having sex with Zhang Lixing for the first time, things happened naturally. Liang Jing began to take the initiative and was soon promoted step by step. From a deputy section chief in the office, she was promoted all the way to the position of the director of the office like a rocket. This was a position at the level of division chief and also a very popular position.
The reason why Liang Jing could sit in this position was also related to her serving Zhang Lixing. On the other hand, she also needed to rely on Zhang Lixing's power to stabilize her position and looked forward to going further in the future. Therefore, she was trying to please Zhang Lixing, but after all, it was just an exchange and there could be no feelings between them. Liang Jing also had her own feelings to vent. She was indifferent to her husband. When her former first love, Qin Peng, came into her sight again, the two soon got back together. Qin Peng also had his own family. The two were more like having an affair, but both of them enjoyed it. Qin Peng's sweet words and gentleness to her made Liang Jing's depression at work released and comforted her.
Liang Jing had always thought that she and Qin Peng were careful enough, but she did not expect that they were still discovered. If you don't want others to know, don't do it. At this moment, when Liang Jing thought of this sentence, she could only smile bitterly.
Zhang Lixing was a sinister villain, and his possessiveness was even stronger. Although the two of them had an improper relationship, Liang Jing knew that if Zhang Lixing knew that she was intimate with other men behind his back, Zhang Lixing would definitely retaliate.
Mayor Li, it is Zhang Lixing who has a grudge with you. Why do you make things difficult for a woman like me? Liang Jing showed weakness.
Director Liang, you misunderstood me. I didn't say that I would make things difficult for you. Listen to what you said. I just wanted to verify the relationship between you and Qin Peng. Since it is true, then it is right. I didn't say anything else. Li Kaishan smiled.
Really? Liang Jing looked at Li Kaishan and sneered. She thought that she had been in the officialdom for more than ten years and could be regarded as an experienced old fox. But in front of these ruthless old guys, she was really nothing. In the officialdom, she was still a primary school student and had to continue to pay tuition fees. In front of these people, she was still too inexperienced.
Mayor Li, just tell me what you want to do. After a short silence, Liang Jing said again. Li Kaishan secretly investigated her. If it was said that there was no purpose, Liang Jing would not believe it. As a mayor, Li Kaishan would not do this kind of thing.
I don't want to do anything. I just hope that Director Liang can help me in the future. A light flashed in Li Kaishan's eyes.
Help? Mayor Li, are you kidding me? You are a mayor, and I am just a small office director. How can I help you when you can't even do it? Liang Jing smiled bitterly. Although she said so, she was vigilant in her heart. The favor that Li Kaishan wanted her to help was most likely related to Zhang Lixing's matter. Otherwise, why would Li Kaishan, a mayor, need a favor from her, a director?
Liang Jing thought. Li Kaishan also stared at the beautiful office director in front of him. She was thirty-six or thirty-seven years old. Some women began to grow old at this age, while some women became more and more beautiful as they grew older. Liang Jing undoubtedly belonged to the latter. If it were not for the fact that he had little interest in beauty, Li Kaishan could not help but be tempted by Liang Jing. In fact, Liang Jing's appearance was not that kind of beauty at first sight, but it was better to look at her. The more people looked at her, the more attractive she was.
Director Liang, I know that you are very smart. I think you should understand what I mean. Li Kaishan looked away from Liang Jing's face and said calmly. He then walked to the window and looked at the Jiangbin construction site. Li Kaishan muttered to himself, "It's not too late for you to stop before it's too late. This is your chance.
Even Mayor Li can't do anything to Deputy Mayor Zhang and the rest and can only let them do whatever they want. Does Mayor Li think that a weak woman like me can help you? " Liang Jing did not respond to Li Kaishan's words directly. Apart from having an illicit relationship with Zhang Lixing, she was not deeply involved in the affairs of Zhang Lixing and the rest. She would not usually take the initiative to ask about it or participate in it. Hence, she was actually not very worried about what she said to Li Kaishan.
As long as you have the heart, you can help. Women always have abilities that men don't have. Li Kaishan smiled and stared at Liang Jing's curvaceous figure in her short skirt. He thought to himself, 'It's no wonder that Zhang Lixing is so infatuated with her.'
Liang Jing blushed a little. She knew what Li Kaishan meant. Being stared at by Li Kaishan made her feel even more uncomfortable. She shifted her body unnaturally. Liang Jing looked around and said, "Mayor Li, it's getting late. You really should go back and rest.
You don't have to worry about when I go back. Just remember what I said. " Li Kaishan said with a smile.
Liang Jing did not speak, and her expression kept changing. If she agreed to Li Kaishan's conditions, Liang Jing knew that she would be on the opposite side of Zhang Lixing. Now that Zhang Lixing and his gang controlled the Mount Wang Municipal Bureau, even Li Kaishan was as helpless as a puppet. Would she have a good end if she went against Zhang Lixing and his gang?
"Mayor Li, what if I can't help you?" Liang Jing gritted her teeth and said.
"If you can't help me, Director Liang, I'm worried about you. If Zhang Lixing knows about you and your two innocent first loves, I think Zhang Lixing may not be willing to do anything to you. Your first love will be in trouble." Li Kaishan sneered.
"Mayor Li, don't you think it's beneath you, a dignified mayor, to use this kind of thing to force others?" Liang Jing looked at Li Kaishan imploringly. "Besides, I'm just a weak woman who struggles to survive in the officialdom. Compared with you, I'm just an insignificant existence. Mayor Li, since you investigated me in private, you should know that I didn't participate deeply in Zhang Lixing and his gang. Why do you make things difficult for me?"
Listening to Liang Jing's words, Li Kaishan's old face couldn't help twitching. At this moment, he felt a little despicable, but he was also forced to do so. It was not a good man to make things difficult for a woman. Li Kaishan didn't want to do this, but he was also deeply involved in the situation and had no other choice.
"Liang Jing, to be honest, I don't want to do this either. Why do I make things difficult for you? But have you ever thought that I don't want to make things difficult for you? You just said that I'm a dignified mayor and the top leader of the Mount Wang Municipal Government, but do you think I look like a mayor? " Li Kaishan's beard and eyebrows were raised, and he was furious to a certain extent. If Zhang Lixing and his gang were not eliminated, Mount Wang would not be peaceful. "Liang Jing, if you are still a Mount Wang person, if you still have a little conscience, you should help me."
Liang Jing was a little touched. This was the first time that Li Kaishan had called her name. His sudden change in attitude also surprised her. She turned to look at Li Kaishan with a complicated expression. Liang Jing was a little confused.
"Mayor Li, it's not that I don't want to help you, but I really can't help you. I can't afford to get involved in your affairs. Can you show mercy?" Liang Jing bit her lip and lowered her head. In the face of the so-called conscience and selfishness, she still chose selfishness.
"Director Liang, I've already said this much, but you still insist on saying that. I can only tell you that this matter is not up to you. You have to help me even if you don't want to." Li Kaishan's face turned cold again. Since he still couldn't change Liang Jing's mind after persuading her nicely, he could only use the method that he didn't want to use the most.
The Jiangbin District in the distance is the grave that those corrupt people have dug for themselves. They will bury themselves. Director Liang, if you help me, you might have a chance to make a contribution in the future and get out of this unscathed. Think about it. Li Kaishan looked into the distance with a cold gaze.
"Mayor Li, do you think there will be such a day?" Liang Jing murmured to herself.
"It will. Chen Jianfei is dead and Chen Xing is here. Don't you think it's the best time for Mount Wang to change?" Li Kaishan opened his arms wide. He was old, but he seemed to be welcoming the new future.
Liang Jing stared at Li Kaishan's back in a daze. Liang Jing didn't know much about Li Kaishan. In the past, Li Kaishan was high and mighty to her. She was just an insignificant deputy section official in the office and didn't even have the right to make Li Kaishan pay attention to her. Even after she was violated by Zhang Lixing and was quickly promoted, she still didn't know much about Li Kaishan. Apart from giving her the impression that Li Kaishan was weak and taciturn, Liang Jing really didn't know what else the mayor could do apart from being a puppet.
However, at this moment, Li Kaishan reminded Liang Jing of a saying: "If you don't explode in silence, you will die in silence."
After standing in place for a while, Liang Jing gritted his teeth and walked out of Li Kaishan's office.
Li Kaishan didn't stop Liang Jing again. He believed that Liang Jing was a smart person. Even if he hadn't made up his mind for the time being, he would never dare to tell Zhang Lixing what had happened tonight.
Hearing that Liang Jing had left, Li Kaishan turned around and looked in the direction in which Liang Jing had left. Li Kaishan had a smile on his face. Since ancient times, beauties were always the source of trouble. Most men who couldn't control themselves would get into trouble because of women. Zhang Lixing loved women, which was the weakest point of Zhang Lixing.
At the gate of the Municipal Government, Qin Peng parked his car quietly on the side of the road outside the gate of the Municipal Government. Qin Peng didn't dare to drive too close. He was thirty or forty meters away. It was late and the night was hazy. Besides, Zhang Lixing wouldn't be in Mount Wang these days, so Qin Peng dared to drive the car outside the Municipal Government and wait for Liang Jing to get off work.
When the familiar figure appeared in his sight, Qin Peng smiled. He got out of the car, went to the other side of the car, and opened the door for Liang Jing in advance.
"Didn't I tell you not to come to the Municipal Government?" Liang Jing said with a tired look.
"Xiaojing, I saw that you didn't get off work so late, so I came to pick you up." Qin Peng smiled with concern. "What's wrong with you tonight? Why do you have to work so late? Look, it's already past eight o 'clock. You haven't eaten yet, right? Let's go to your house. I'll cook for you."
"Mayor Li works overtime at night, so I don't want to leave too early." Liang Jing leaned against the seat and looked at the soft lines of Qin Peng's face. When he was young, he knew that this man was handsome. When he was middle-aged, he became more and more charming. It was said that men were as beautiful as flowers. Liang Jing believed it. Qin Peng was like this.
He was such a gentle, considerate, and charming man. It was a pity that she was not his wife. They had been classmates for more than ten years. Why did they cut off contact after graduating from high school? If she had a family with him, maybe now … Liang Jing didn't think about it anymore. There was no "maybe" in this world. Time would not go back, and the past would not come back.
Qin Peng started the car and didn't notice Liang Jing's abnormality. When he heard Liang Jing's words, he smiled and said, "I really didn't know that Mayor Li was so hardworking. It's so late, and he is still working. People say that it's good to be a leader, but I think it's not easy for him to be a mayor."
"It's not easy for him to be a mayor." Liang Jing whispered to himself.
"No matter how hard it is, he is the mayor. If I were him, I would be willing to work hard." Qin Peng grinned. "There are many people who want to sit in that position. Xiaojing, don't you think so?"
"If I am like Li Kaishan, I am not willing to do it." Liang Jing twitched his mouth.
"What's wrong with Mayor Li?" Qin Peng was stunned and turned to look at Liang Jing.
"Nothing. Let's go home." Liang Jing shook his head.
It was an empty three-bedroom house. Liang Jing lived in a house she bought a few years ago. It was a newly built community, and the walls were still brand new. Liang Jing lived on the fifth floor and took the elevator up. Usually, if Qin Peng didn't come, she would be the only one in the house.
Zhang Lixing had never been to her house. Although she had pretended to invite him, Zhang Lixing either liked to mess around in the office or went to the hotel. He had never been here. Liang Jing was glad that Zhang Lixing had never been here. Liang Jing preferred to treat this house as her own pure land. She didn't want the old b * stard Zhang Lixing to come here.
"You haven't had dinner yet, right? Is there any food in the fridge? I'll cook for you." Qin Peng smiled.
"No, I've eaten in the government canteen." Liang Jing shook her head, entered the house, and closed the door. Seeing Qin Peng go to the fridge as soon as possible, Liang Jing was a little moved. This was a man who knew how to care for women carefully. She walked over and gently hugged Qin Peng from behind. Her cheek was pressed against his broad back. Liang Jing was a little fascinated.
Liang Jing gently called Qin Peng's name. Her tone was a little tired and dependent.
"What's wrong? You haven't seen me for two days, but you miss me so much?" Qin Peng turned around with a smile and stroked Liang Jing's face. "I just went to the gate of the Municipal Government to pick you up, but you were not very happy. I heard from you that Zhang Lixing went to Nanzhou on a business trip these days, so I dared to come here. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been so unscrupulous."
"Alas, there are too many people at the gate of the Municipal Government. If someone sees me and gossips, it will not be good for Zhang Lixing." Liang Jing shook his head. "It's better to be careful."
"I know, but it was more than eight o 'clock in the evening. Most people got off work. The place where I parked was dozens of meters away from the gate of the Municipal Government. There were no street lights there, so no one would notice me." Qin Peng smiled, gently took Liang Jing's shoulder, walked to the sofa, and pressed Liang Jing to sit on the sofa. He smiled and said, "You must be tired after a busy day. Come on, let me serve you. I'll massage your shoulders and let you relax."
Qin Peng smiled and walked to the back of the sofa. He did what he said and massaged Liang Jing's shoulders. He smiled and said, "How about my massage technique?
"Peng, are you so gentle and considerate to your wife at home?" There was an inexplicable jealousy in Liang Jing's eyes.
"No, thank God I don't quarrel with her at home. How can I be gentle? I feel annoyed when I see her. Out of sight, out of mind." Qin Peng smiled bitterly and said, "I feel happy only when I'm in front of you."
Liang Jing looked cheerful. A man's sweet words were the best love words in the world. Qin Peng's words made her feel better. But when she thought of what Li Kaishan said at night, Liang Jing's face became gloomy. She had a choice in front of her.
"Peng, I can't bear to leave you, and I don't want you to get hurt." Liang Jing pressed Qin Peng's hands and suddenly said.
"Xiaojing, what's wrong with you tonight? I'm fine. How can I get hurt? " Qin Peng smiled and walked over from behind. He squatted down and looked at Liang Jing. "Xiaojing, are you too tired from work? If you're tired, go to take a shower now. After the shower, go to bed and recover your energy. "
"No." Liang Jing shook her head, pulled Qin Peng up, and motioned for Qin Peng to sit down. Liang Jing rarely talked about the leaders of the city with Qin Peng. At this moment, she didn't want to talk to Qin Peng either. She thought that the less Qin Peng knew, the better. Deep down, Liang Jing didn't want Qin Peng to get involved in any trouble in the future.
"Peng, will you look down on me?" Liang Jing looked straight at Qin Peng.
"No, I know you have to do something. In my eyes, you're still the cute girl who asked me to borrow a rubber band with a runny nose in elementary school." Qin Peng smiled.
"It's been a long time, and you're still talking about it." Liang Jing smiled and shook her head. When she was a child, she was nicknamed Little Slug. At that time, she had a runny nose all day long because she got rhinitis at a young age. Even if she didn't have a cold, she would have a runny nose. It was strange that when she grew up, it didn't happen anymore.
"It means that you've always been in my heart." Qin Peng smiled. His sweet words were touching.
Liang Jing smiled sweetly and leaned on Qin Peng's shoulder. "Are we going back tonight?"
"I have to go back. If I don't go back, that female Yaksha will quarrel with me endlessly tomorrow." Qin Peng smiled helplessly. He knew what Liang Jing was thinking. Qin Peng sighed. "I also want to stay with you."
"Forget it. I understand your difficulties. Besides, I'm satisfied that we can spare time to be together from time to time." Liang Jing patted Qin Peng's hand. Emotionally, she was a woman who was easily satisfied. Perhaps because of her marriage experience, Liang Jing knew that hard-won happiness should be carefully guarded.
Smelling the familiar smell of the man next to her, Liang Jing made a painful choice in her head. She didn't dare to ignore Li Kaishan's threat. If she didn't do what he wanted, she didn't know if he would hurt Qin Peng. No, there was no need for Li Kaishan to do anything. As long as Li Kaishan let someone leak the relationship between her and Qin Peng to Zhang Lixing, Qin Peng would definitely not have a good end. Liang Jing didn't want this man to have any accidents.
The two were silent. The room was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.
The night was dark, and the mountain wind was whistling. The night in Wangshan City made people feel cold from the bones.
The new city building standing on the ground was so dazzling and eye-catching on the land of Wangshan City. The shining neon lights seemed to be cast by blood and tears.
Nanzhou, the provincial capital of Nanhai Province, was like a city that never sleeps. The prosperity of the provincial capital was everywhere. Wherever the light shone, there was a scene of singing and dancing. In the corners hidden in the darkness, dirty scenes were staged.
Zhang Lixing did not return to the hotel that night. After socializing with Jiang Wei, the deputy minister of the Publicity Department of the Provincial Party Committee, the two said goodbye with smiles on their faces. As the old saying goes, no discord, no concord. Jiang Wei's son punched him and almost let the police arrest him. He also asked someone to chase and beat up Jiang Longfei. This matter was considered even. There were no eternal enemies in the officialdom, only eternal interests. The two people who were angry at each other at the beginning had now become friends talking and laughing.
Watching Jiang Wei and his son get into the car, Zhang Lixing was still holding the agarwood beads that Jiang Wei said were fake. He turned his head to look at Wang Huacheng, the secretary. Zhang Lixing scolded him for being useless and threw the box at Wang Huacheng's face.
Wang Huacheng caught the box in a hurry. He was in a daze and didn't know what was going on. Holding the small box, Wang Huacheng muttered to himself, "These damn, inconspicuous Buddha beads are bought for ten or twenty thousand yuan. Even if the leader doesn't want them, he can't just throw them away like this."
"Mayor, doesn't Minister Jiang want these Buddha beads?" Wang Huacheng asked cautiously.
"Want my ass. You bought me a bunch of fake Buddha beads. Are you trying to make me lose face?" Zhang Lixing's face turned ugly.
"Fake?" Wang Huacheng was shocked. "No, no way. How can this be fake?" "Mayor, who said this is fake?"
"Minister Jiang said it. That person is a veteran in playing with Buddha beads. He can see it at a glance. Look at your eyes. You spent more than ten thousand yuan to buy this broken thing for me." Zhang Lixing scolded.
"Mayor, I don't know anything about this thing. That boss talked a lot about it. I didn't know about this thing before. How could I know that the profiteer is cheating me? No, I have to go back and settle the score with him." Wang Huacheng's face was bitter, and his heart was filled with grievance. He was not familiar with this thing at all. As a leader, you scolded it so happily. I just bought it, but I didn't see anything wrong with it.
He dared to sell it to you. Do you think you can get a refund when you go back? Zhang Lixing looked at Wang Huacheng angrily. He turned around and walked to the car. He didn't care about ten or twenty thousand yuan. Zhang Lixing undoubtedly didn't care.
Wang Huacheng quickly followed him into the car. Listening to the leader's tone, he knew that it didn't matter whether he returned the broken Buddha beads or not. Wang Huacheng thought about finding time to try tomorrow. The leader didn't care. If he succeeded, at least ten or twenty thousand yuan would fall into his pocket.
"Xiao Wang, spend some time to see if there are any authentic high-quality agarwood Buddha beads. Money doesn't matter. Just get me a real one." Zhang Lixing got into the car and ordered.
"Okay." Hearing this, Wang Huacheng immediately agreed.
"Mayor, are we going back to the hotel now?" Wang Huacheng asked.
"We're not going back." Zhang Lixing waved his hand. There was no fun in going back to the hotel. There were so many people staying together. Everyone went back to the hotel at night. There were eyes everywhere. It would be difficult to find fun. Zhang Lixing also knew that he wouldn't have such a good opportunity to call Su Yan to a room alone. He was too lazy to go back at night. Later, he still had to pay a visit to the Provincial government's Deputy Secretary-General, Chen Haiyang.
Zhang Lixing had always coveted the position of Mayor. Since Li Kaishan couldn't take over the position of Secretary and let Chen Xing take over, Zhang Lixing was wondering if he could find a way to get Li Kaishan to roll to the second line in advance. Of course, he had something on Li Kaishan, so Li Kaishan could only cooperate with them. But no matter how obedient Li Kaishan was, he wouldn't be as happy as being Mayor.
Moreover, it wasn't that Zhang Lixing didn't have his guard up against Li Kaishan. Li Kaishan, that old turtle, seemed to be very cooperative now. Who knew if he had been secretly doing something? It would be best if he could kick Li Kaishan away.
After visiting Li Kaishan, Zhang Lixing was already thinking about going to the club that he usually went to in the provincial capital to have some fun and spend the night there.
In an apartment on Coastal Avenue, Chen Xing stood on the small balcony and looked at the sea in the distance. It wasn't without reason that the housing prices here were the highest in Nanzhou City. Facing the sea, the environment was superior, and the University of Nanzhou was located not far away. The beautiful environment and high-quality educational resources determined that the housing prices here couldn't be cheap.
Jiang Wan was still making ginseng soup for him to drink. Chen Xing felt that he was now strong and didn't need to drink that thing at all. But Jiang Wan said that he was tired from work and needed to nourish his body. She insisted on making it for him to drink. Chen Xing also smiled bitterly, but Jiang Wan had good intentions after all, so Chen Xing could only accept it.
Staring into the distance, Chen Xing didn't notice that Jiang Wan had quietly walked to his side.
"Chen Xing, what are you thinking about? You're frowning. Do you have so many troubles? I feel sorry for you." Jiang Wan stretched out her hand to help Chen Xing smooth out his frowning brows.
"It's not a bother. I've just been transferred to Mount Wang. Seeing how backward Mount Wang is, as the secretary, I also feel deeply responsible. As an official, I will benefit the people. As the secretary, I also hope to bring some changes to the four million people in Mount Wang and make their lives better." Chen Xing shook his head and smiled.
"Only a leader like you can be so serious. It would be great if all the officials were like you now." Jiang Wan smiled.
"Jiang Wan, you're wrong. Although some of our cadres have been corrupted, there are still many who really want to do something practical. Society is progressing. You should see the power of this change at the top. They also hope to make the lives of the people better." Chen Xing said solemnly.
