Since Meng Sisi had spoken, what else could Su Xiaoyang say? He could only go along with Sisi's words and say, "There are two other friends who have gone to do something. Let's wait for a while."
Mei Ting sat down and so did Su Xiaoyang. For a moment, no one knew what to say. The room was so quiet that only their breathing could be heard. This atmosphere made Su Xiaoyang feel pressured. He had never encountered such a situation since he had eaten. Only then did he realize that he shouldn't have listened to Sisi and accompanied her and Ma Yingjie to eat shark's fin.
Could he swallow such shark's fin? As soon as Su Xiaoyang thought of Ma Yingjie, he began to feel angry.
Ma Yingjie had already sent Ding Xiaotiao's father to the door of the balance room. The makeup artist was still helping Ding Xiaotiao with plastic surgery. Fang Yang and two young people from the office were waiting at the door. As soon as Fang Yang saw Ma Yingjie, he was relieved again. He was about to hand the matter over to Ma Yingjie, but when he saw that half of Ma Yingjie's face was red and swollen, he swallowed the words he wanted to say.
Ma Yingjie had obviously been beaten, and the person who beat him, Fang Yang could guess without asking. It was definitely Ding Xiaotiao's family. However, Ma Yingjie had handled this matter well, and Ding Xiaotiao's family didn't object. Why would they suddenly beat Ma Yingjie?
Fang Yang was puzzled.
Ma Yingjie brought Ding Xiaotiao's parents to Fang Yang and said, "Secretary General Fang, I have reported Xiaotiao's matter to Secretary Meng. All the expenses will be borne by the government office. Besides, the government office will find a way to subsidize Xiaotiao's parents' living expenses in the future. Please take care of this matter, Secretary General Fang. I have other things to do, I have to go now. "
Ma Yingjie wanted to leave after he finished speaking, but Meng Sisi had already sent him several messages, asking him to hurry over. He really couldn't do anything to this girl. However, it was indeed fortunate that this girl was here today. Without her, he didn't know how to report this matter. He had already been dispatched to Qin County. In such an occasion, he had no right or reason to be in charge. But when he saw that Fang Yang and Su Xiaoyang were unwilling to pay attention to Ding Xiaotiao's parents, he couldn't bear it, he intervened. Moreover, pushing this matter to Meng Chenglin was also a good thing for Luo Tianyun. This matter started from Luo Tianyun. Although he didn't do anything wrong, it was still a dishonorable thing to do. Now that Meng Chenglin had given the order, they should do as Ma Yingjie said. In the future, if there were any problems, it would be Meng Chenglin's problem, and Luo Tianyun would have nothing to do with it. Coincidentally, he wasn't in the government building, so he could push this matter away. This was also the reason why Ma Yingjie intervened in this matter. As Luo Tianyun's most trusted aide, if he didn't help Luo Tianyun at this critical moment, who else would he help? The more he helped Luo Tianyun with these small matters, the more time and energy Luo Tianyun would have to deal with the big issues. As long as Luo Tianyun's big issue was successful, it didn't matter if he was beaten or wronged.
Of course, Ma Yingjie would never let Su Xiaoyang and Fang Yang know about this mentality of his. There were many things in the officialdom that couldn't be seen clearly, and one needed to comprehend it with one's heart. Most of the time, the officialdom was like a woman. She would put on a perfectly good face and put on makeup. She would put on black eyeshadow, red lipstick, white skincare products, and colorful makeup lotion. Once she put on makeup, she would put on makeup for one to two hours. This woman, once she put on makeup, she would put on colorful makeup, which made people see flowers in the fog and look at the moon in the water, and let their imagination run wild. The officialdom loved to torment people like this. The more hazy it was, the more seductive it would be. You would be looking at it from the side, but she would be on the other side with a face full of makeup. You would never be able to guess what color was behind the makeup.
After experiencing these few things, Ma Yingjie felt that he had to be like a woman's makeup. He had to cover himself up in front of Su Xiaoyang and Fang Yang. The darker, the better. Fang Yang wasn't a bad person. He was like Deng Desheng, a sly official. These kinds of people were more shrewd than anyone else, and they knew how the officialdom worked better than anyone else. However, they slipped faster than anyone else at the critical moment. If one were to count on them to put out the fire, the sun would probably rise from the west.
Just as Ma Yingjie was about to leave, Fang Yang said, "Have you reported this to Mayor Luo?"
Ma Yingjie was stunned. Fang Yang's question really made him not know whether to laugh or cry. For this matter, whether it was official or personal, Fang Yang should be the one reporting to Luo Tianyun. If he was the one reporting it, what kind of thing was that?
Fang Yang hurriedly pulled Ma Yingjie to the side and said, "I don't dare to do anything that involves the fees. Without the boss's approval, if he doesn't sign, how are we going to pay the fees? "
Ma Yingjie was furious, but he couldn't vent it on Fang Yang. When handling matters, they all stepped aside, and when the matter was over, they all pushed all the responsibility to others. If this was something to take credit for, Ma Yingjie thought that Fang Yang probably wouldn't let him report to Luo Tianyun.
Ma Yingjie tried to calm himself down. He didn't want Fang Yang to hear any dissatisfaction in his tone. He already had a deep understanding of sly officials and scoundrels. If it wasn't to suppress Deng Desheng's crooked temper, would he have rushed to Wu Du's side? If he didn't come to Wu Du, would he have encountered this matter? Would he have been dragged into it? It seemed that he was still too young and inexperienced. He lacked experience in the bureaucracy, and even more so, he lacked ways to deal with this group of people. If it was his boss, if it was Meng Chenglin, they would definitely know how to deal with this kind of people. Of course, they were all top officials. No matter how sly or scoundrels an official was, they would still be restrained in front of them.
His phone rang. Ma Yingjie picked it up and saw that it was Meng Sisi. "Why isn't she here yet? Are you going back on your word? "
Ma Yingjie took a glance at Fang Yang. Fang Yang seemed to have heard the girl's voice, and he tactfully moved aside. Ma Yingjie didn't mean it that way, but his glance caused Fang Yang to misunderstand. He couldn't help but deliberately say to Meng Sisi, "Is Secretary Su getting impatient from waiting?"
Fang Yang was obviously stunned. Ma Yingjie and Su Xiaoyang had a meal together? When did he join hands with Su Xiaoyang? As he was thinking about this, Ma Yingjie's voice sounded again. "Why don't you let Secretary Su answer the phone?"
Fang Yang hurriedly walked over. Before Ma Yingjie could say anything, he signaled Ma Yingjie to leave quickly. Ma Yingjie also hurriedly made a hand gesture to Fang Yang to leave. He pretended to answer the phone and quickly went downstairs.
After Ma Yingjie got in the car, he sent a message to Luo Tianyun and briefly explained the situation. He also specifically said that he had kicked the ball to Meng Chenglin. After the message was sent, Ma Yingjie felt extremely tired. His face was faintly aching. He couldn't help touching the side of his face that was slapped by Ding Xiaotiao's father and sighed.
"Mayor County Ma, it's been hard on you." Xiao Zhou said in a very appropriate and caring manner.
"Xiao Zhou, remember, no matter in life or as a person, you must take one step at a time and see what happens next. Xiaotiao is too conceited. I feel bad too, but there's nothing I can do, "Ma Yingjie said.
"That's right. Mayor County Ma's guidance is very good. I'll definitely keep it in mind, "Xiao Zhou said with a lot of emotion.
Ma Yingjie didn't reply. He closed his eyes. He was too tired. He really wanted to lie on the bed and relax and sleep again. However, Meng Sisi's childish face, Meng Sisi's eyes filled with too much love, and Meng Sisi's pair of jade bunnies, were playing in Ma Yingjie's mind over and over again. He shook his head and wanted to drive them away, but he couldn't get rid of the pair of soft breasts.
Ma Yingjie just remembered that he hadn't touched a woman for a long time. He really missed women. That kind of desire was so cheap, so real and instinctive. However, Meng Sisi, Luan Xiaoxue, Situ Lan, and even Li Xiaomei, were they women that he could afford to touch?
Ma Yingjie also thought of An Qi. Was he happy when he was married to An Qi? Was there love between them? When he thought of the word "love", Ma Yingjie remembered a passage he read.
"A well-known professor went to the grass-roots level to do research and asked an old farmer, 'What's the difference between love and marriage?' The old farmer answered without thinking, 'It's actually very simple. If you sleep with her today, you still want to sleep with her tomorrow. That's love. If you sleep with her today, you still have to sleep with her tomorrow. That's marriage.' The professor looked at the old farmer with shame and respect and said to himself, 'How insightful! This is the century topic that I've been researching for most of my life! It turns out that if you start a career today, you still want to do it tomorrow; if you start a career today, you still have to do it tomorrow! Friends still want to drink after a meal, clients still have to drink after a meal. '
During the years of marriage, Ma Yingjie had to sleep with An Qi. After leaving An Qi, he never thought about An Qi's body. Even when he was most eager to touch a woman's body now, the woman that appeared in his mind didn't include An Qi. Sigh, who was the sad one between husband and wife at this point? An Qi was probably the same as him, having to sleep with him for a few years.
The word "love" was always so empty, so thick, and so fascinating. No matter how old you were, the word would always jump and run without you noticing.
When Ma Yingjie thought of the word "love", he seemed to be hit by something. At this moment, pain and bitterness made Ma Yingjie unwilling to open his eyes for a long time.
When they arrived at the Wu Du Hotel, Ma Yingjie got out of the car. Seeing that Meng Sisi was already waiting for him at the door, his heart couldn't help but move. The word "love" jumped out again, and his heart couldn't help but beat wildly. What was wrong with him? On the day when Xiaotiao committed suicide, why did he keep thinking about love? However, he suddenly envied Meng Sisi, who dared to express her feelings openly.
As soon as Meng Sisi saw Ma Yingjie, she came up to him with a happy face and said with a smile, "Brother Ma, you're finally here. I was so afraid that you wouldn't come. You're really too much. Why do you care about things that others don't care about? You're not working at Wu Du, and it's a thankless task. "
Ma Yingjie was stunned. This was a logic that even a little girl understood, but he didn't. He got slapped for nothing. However, this thought quickly flashed through his mind. In such an occasion, how could he not care?
