Yingjie, of course, he had to give this favor to Situ Lan.
Situ Lan laughed loudly and ignored Meng Chenglin, directly shoving the phone to Shi Lei. Shi Lei said, "Secretary Meng, how do you think we should deal with this?"
"Listen to Xiao Lan, do what she says." When Meng Chenglin saw that it was Shi Lei on the phone, his tone immediately became impatient.
"Okay, Secretary Meng, I understand." Shi Lei then hung up the phone. He quickly put on a smile and said to Situ Lan, "I'm sorry, it's my fault for being blind. Can you forgive me?"
"You're not going to kick me out?" Situ Lan squinted her eyes and asked Shi Lei.
"Ms. Lan is a heroine, I was blind. I admit my mistake, I apologize. " Then, Shi Lei quickly turned his gaze to Ma Yingjie and said, "I'll set up a banquet at noon to apologize to everyone, can everyone forgive me this once?"
Since Shi Lei had already lowered his status and left a clear path for everyone, Ma Yingjie couldn't beat him when he was down. These people couldn't do anything right, but they were good at spoiling things. Thus, he quickly said, "Thank you, Secretary Shi, we still have things to do today, next time when I go back to Wu Du, I'll come back to thank you." Then, Ma Yingjie walked in front of Situ Lan and said, "Sister Lan, let's go."
Ma Yingjie's words made Shi Lei feel better, so he looked at Ma Yingjie even more politely, hoping that Ma Yingjie would quickly leave with the three women.
Of course, Situ Lan saw Shi Lei's expression and snorted again. Shi Lei's face turned pale again. Even Meng Chenglin had to give in to this woman. Shi Lei was afraid. Maybe he could lose his position as the Secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection because of this woman.
Ma Yingjie was worried that Situ Lan would make things difficult for Shi Lei again. When it was possible to let someone off, one should forgive them. This was his way of doing things. Besides, it would be easier for them to meet again in the future. So he said to Situ Lan, "Sister Lan, I know where you can find a kind of orchid that you mentioned before. I'll take you to see it now."
"Is it true? You found it? " Situ Lan's interest was piqued as she immediately stood up from her seat. Ma Yingjie considerately helped her carry her bag. Luan Xiaoxue watched from the side, but she had an indescribable feeling. Ma Yingjie's attitude towards Situ Lan was awkward no matter how she looked at it. This woman's bag was really carried by a grown man. She really couldn't stand it.
Luan Xiaoxue quietly walked to Ma Yingjie's side and quietly took the bag and carried it on her shoulder. This small action was seen by Li Xiaomei. Li Xiaomei suddenly realized that Luan Xiaoxue was a person who couldn't tolerate sand in her eyes. She was a real person, a pure person. There were fewer and fewer people like her. This kind of person was already rare in this society. It was no wonder that Ma Yingjie was so protective of her. People like her, other than being protected by Ma Yingjie, would always suffer a lot outside.
Situ Lan walked in the front, Ma Yingjie followed closely by her side. Li Xiaomei still held Luan Xiaoxue's hand. The group walked out of Shi Lei's office. As soon as they left, Shi Lei closed the office door. He hurriedly called Su Xiaoyang. When the call went through, Shi Lei said, "Ma Yingjie was taken away."
"Who took him away?" Su Xiaoyang asked curiously. Even though Meng Chenglin told him to apologize to Ma Yingjie and ask Ma Yingjie to go easy on the little girl, Su Xiaoyang was not willing to lose to Ma Yingjie just like that. He had carefully designed the dust collection equipment, this big trap, but Ma Yingjie did not fall into it. In the end, he, Jiang Chaoqun, and Shi Lei fell into an awkward and passive situation.
"It's a woman that even Secretary Meng has to give in to. They call her Sister Lan. As for who she is, I don't know either. I was just about to ask you. Ma Yingjie, that silly brat, how could he have such a big background? This woman's tone is as big as if her father is the emperor who controls the country. "Shi Lei said angrily. He had never been played like this before.
"Sister Lan?" Su Xiaoyang asked doubtfully. At the same time, he tried hard to find this person in his mind, but after thinking for a long time, he still did not know who this Sister Lan was. "Brother Shi, no matter what, I still have to thank you. This little brother will remember the favor I owe you. "Su Xiaoyang gave up thinking about who Sister Lan was and hurriedly expressed his gratitude to Shi Lei.
"As long as the boss doesn't blame us, there won't be any big problems. Investigating an official is very normal. I'm just worried that this Sister Lan will not let this matter go. You should check the boss' tone. When it's time to mend the pen after the sheep is lost, we still have to mend it early. "Shi Lei reminded Su Xiaoyang over the phone.
"Brother Shi's reminder is right. I will find a chance to check the boss' tone. But this matter, I have already admitted to the boss that I was wrong. I believe I won't implicate you guys. Brother said that if something happens, I will take responsibility. I won't do anything that will implicate my brothers. Don't worry. " On the other end of the phone, Su Xiaoyang's posture was very low, but his tone was very sincere. This moved Shi Lei. The anger that he had suffered in Situ Lan also dissipated. He said emotionally, "Between brothers, even if it's nitpicking, there will be pain. Who are we to whom? If one is hurt, we will all be hurt. No matter who it is, we will do our best to do it. "
"Brother Shi, thank you for your words. After a while, when the limelight is over, we will have a good drink. " Su Xiaoyang laughed on the other end. The heavy atmosphere between the two quickly passed. After a while, they both hung up.
When Ma Yingjie and the others came down from the elevator, Situ Lan said to Ma Yingjie, "Now, take me to see the orchid." The orchid that Situ Lan wanted grew in the deep valleys. It looked simple, but its fragrance was very strong. There was a saying from Confucius, "The orchid grows in the deep valleys, not because there is no one around. A gentleman cultivates virtue, not because he is poor." This was used to describe this type of orchid. Because it grew in the deep valleys, this fragrance was more natural. The spirit of the earth. When Situ Lan first saw this kind of orchid, she was infatuated with it. This type of orchid had always made Situ Lan's mind empty for a long time.
Ma Yingjie just wanted to persuade Situ Lan to leave, so he casually said that he would take her to see the orchid. Who knew that Situ Lan would take it seriously? He had a lot of things to do now. Jin Ergou was still causing trouble. How could he be in the mood to see the orchid? Sigh, but he had already said it. Could he take it back? This woman, even if she was an old woman, was still a woman. Towards romance, sentiment, and love, they were always filled with endless passion and yearning. A woman's sky was her feelings, and a man's sky was his career. Ma Yingjie finally understood this layer of logic. But even if he wanted to do his career now, if he offended Situ Lan, how could his career be called a career? This layer of logic, of course, Ma Yingjie understood it. Although Luan Xiaoxue didn't like him fawning on Situ Lan, Luan Xiaoxue quietly took Situ Lan's bag. It was to tell him that he had fawned on Situ Lan. Of course, he understood Luan Xiaoxue's intention. But, Situ Lan went straight to Shi Lei's office for him. This favor, no matter what, Ma Yingjie had to remember it.
"Are you kidding me?" Seeing that Ma Yingjie didn't say anything, Situ Lan added.
Ma Yingjie had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "How would I dare to fool Sister Lan? Let's go now. I know where they can be found. We'll go get some and raise them at home."
"Sure, sure." Situ Lan was excited again. She looked like a little girl.
Li Xiaomei laughed secretly at the side. But, Luan Xiaoxue just couldn't get close to Situ Lan. She didn't know why. It seemed that the intuition between women was too magical. She and Li Xiaomei felt like they were fated to meet, but she always kept a respectful distance from Situ Lan. Even if Situ Lan helped Ma Yingjie so much, she still couldn't get close to Situ Lan. Of course, if Luan Xiaoxue knew that Situ Lan had always liked Luo Tianyun, would she be willing to let Ma Yingjie accompany Situ Lan to Yuntai Mountain to pick orchids and flowers? If it wasn't for the experience of picking orchids and flowers in Yuntai Mountain, would Ma Yingjie and Situ Lan be as close as sister and brother? These were all in the future. But at this moment, Ma Yingjie still had to accompany Situ Lan. Ma Yingjie still had to leave her alone.
As soon as they got out of the government building, the military car that picked up Situ Lan drove over, and Xiaowang's car was at the other end. Li Xiaomei looked at Ma Yingjie, and then looked at Luan Xiaoxue. She didn't know what to say. Should she take Luan Xiaoxue back to Qin County, or should she leave Luan Xiaoxue to wait for Ma Yingjie? It seemed that Ma Yingjie couldn't go back to Qin County today.
Luan Xiaoxue was very sad. She knew that Situ Lan definitely didn't want Luan Xiaoxue to go with her. Of course, it was not suitable for her to climb the mountain in her current situation. But should she go back to Qin County with Li Xiaomei, or should she wait for Ma Yingjie in Wu Du? If she asked to go back to Qin County, would it seem that she was angry and stingy? Moreover, Ma Yingjie was only her husband in name, not her real husband. What right did she have to ask about Ma Yingjie's whereabouts? Thinking of this, Luan Xiaoxue had the urge to cry. Alas, what was wrong with her? Why was she becoming more and more delicate? Was she really used to being spoiled by Ma Yingjie, and couldn't stand the slightest coldness from him?
Ma Yingjie said to Situ Lan, "Sister Lan, get in the car and wait for me. I want to talk to Luan Xiaoxue for a while."
Situ Lan seemed to just remember Luan Xiaoxue's existence. She smiled and said, "Okay, okay. We haven't seen each other for a few days, so it's okay to have a private talk. I'll wait for you in the car." Situ Lan's careless words made Luan Xiaoxue's face turn red again. Li Xiaomei secretly squeezed her hand and quickly walked in the direction of her car.
