Ma Yingjie stood up and walked in the direction of Professor Liu, leaving the space for Li Xiaomei and Liu Rusheng.
As Ma Yingjie walked, he realized that Professor Liu's body was sinking not far away. He panicked and quickly ran in Professor Liu's direction. As he ran, he shouted, "Professor Liu, don't move. Float up. Don't sink with the quagmire."
When Professor Liu's body kept sinking, he knew that he had sunk into the quagmire. When he heard Ma Yingjie's shout and saw Ma Yingjie running towards him, he became anxious and shouted at Ma Yingjie, "Don't come over. There are too many quagmires in this place. Instead of the two of you sinking, it's better to let me hold it alone. Go and call someone to bring a rope or other life-saving tools."
Ma Yingjie did not listen to Professor Liu. He rushed over and asked Professor Liu to extend his hand to him, but Professor Liu refused. He knew very well that the quagmire could not bear the weight of two people. However, Ma Yingjie was still moving forward. He was angry. "Ma Yingjie, do you want to die? Go and call someone. "
Li Xiaomei also rushed over and looked at them anxiously. Professor Liu asked Li Xiaomei to call someone and stopped Ma Yingjie from moving forward. However, Ma Yingjie did not listen to him at all and continued to move forward. As a result, when Ma Yingjie was about to reach him, he also sank into the quagmire.
Ma Yingjie held his breath and tried to float up as much as possible. Professor Liu also held his breath and floated up. They did not speak, and Li Xiaomei did not dare to speak again. However, her heart kept beating, which was even more terrifying than her sinking into the quagmire herself. She stared at Ma Yingjie and Liu Shujiao without blinking, afraid that the two men would disappear and sink into the quagmire if she blinked.
It was quiet all around. Li Xiaomei could not hear anything other than her own heartbeat. She regretted sending the boatman away. If he was here, he would definitely have a way. After all, he had experience.
Li Xiaomei could not hold back her tears as Liu Rusheng comforted her: "The speedboat will arrive soon, they will be fine." Ma Yingjie and Professor Liu also smiled at Li Xiaomei. They wanted to say something but were stopped by Li Xiaomei. "Don't say anything. I understand. I understand everything. You have to hold on. "
Li Xiaomei called for help. Liu Rusheng was also comforting Ma Yingjie and Professor Liu, who were stuck in the quagmire. He signaled them not to speak and to breathe. Before long, the sound of a speedboat could be heard. Li Xiaomei raised her arm and shouted, "Here, here."
The people on the speedboat saw Li Xiaomei and approached her. When the speedboat approached, it stopped and a few middle-aged men walked out. They threw ropes to Professor Liu and Ma Yingjie and asked them to tie them to themselves. As the speedboat rowed, the two of them were pulled out of the quagmire.
At this time, the footsteps of a group of people could be heard on the shore. The leader was Mei Jie. She was rushing over with a group of people. She had just learned that Ma Yingjie and Li Xiaomei were training Professor Liu and that Professor Liu was capable in Beijing. Of course, it was Boss Hu who had told her. She was also instructed by Jiang Chaoqun to come. Jiang Chaoqun only knew about the news of Meng Chenglin's suicide. After the shock, he regarded Boss Hu as his life-saving straw. Boss Hu said that Professor Liu was more capable than him, so he ordered Mei Jie to find him quickly. In the evening, he would hold a banquet to entertain Professor Liu.
When Mei Jie rushed over with her people, she saw that Professor Liu and the others were stuck in the quagmire. She was also worried. Fortunately, the speedboat had arrived to save them and Professor Liu was fine. Mei Jie was relieved. She quickly called Jiang Chaoqun. "Hello, Secretary Jiang. Don't worry. Don't worry. Professor Liu is fine. Don't worry. He has been rescued. "
Jiang Chaoqun said, "That's good. You must be warm to them. "After saying that, he hung up.
Mei Jie did not expect that a person that Li Xiaomei had casually brought back would be so valued by Secretary Jiang Chaoqun. Only then did she realize that she had made a mistake in targeting Li Xiaomei. Li Xiaomei was still capable. Although she had always looked down on Li Xiaomei, saying that she was not capable and not as young as she was, why was she always inferior to her?
Mei Jie was extremely depressed. She knew very well that times had changed in the officialdom. Jiang Chaoqun's backer, Meng Chenglin, had committed suicide. This was an extremely bad sign for her. Whether Jiang Chaoqun could catch the life-saving straw in Beijing depended on his luck. If Jiang Chaoqun fell, she would be worse off than Li Xiaomei. At least Li Xiaomei now had Liu Rusheng's favor and Ma Yingjie's protection. It turned out that Ma Yingjie, a young man whom she had never taken seriously, was so capable. She was really a snob. It was such a blunder. Now, Mei Hao wanted to use action to restore her image in Ma Yingjie's mind. This was more important than anything else at the moment. Thinking about it, it was quite sullen. It was not easy for her to rely on Jiang Chaoqun. She thought that she would be respected and pampered like Li Xiaomei. However, she did not expect that the good times would not last long. It was hard to say whether Jiang Chaoqun could continue to stand in Qin County. Mei Jie was extremely sullen. However, although she was sullen, she could no longer be angry with Ma Yingjie, who seemed to be a simple young man. This kind of anger was not something she could afford.
The accident was a close call, but Ma Yingjie's heart could not be at ease. He felt that he was always going through one battle after another. From the first day he stepped into Qin County, when his head was broken, he had to be physically injured in every battle. Those who did not know what was going on might think that he was playing a series of tricks. However, only he knew that he was not like that, and he did not want to be like that. Although he did win the great trust of his boss and Situ Lan time and time again, he lost his love. He made the person who loved him the most hate him so much. When he thought of Sisi's tearful and hateful eyes, when he thought of her bleeding heart, Ma Yingjie felt a deep sense of guilt.
At such a moment, only his boss, Luo Tianyun, would play such cards. He used the project to attract the attention of outsiders, and also used the project to establish Ma Yingjie's position in Qin County. Ma Yingjie suddenly understood this point on the way to accompany Professor Liu. It turned out that his boss was a real master. He had a lot of cards in his hand, and his strategy was not messed up at all. Except for the problem of Luan Xiaoxue, when he hesitated and messed up his strategy a little, every time he played a card, he would win. Therefore, when Professor Liu was in trouble, he would risk his life to save him. No matter whether he could save Professor Liu or not, his attitude, his courage, and his willingness to sacrifice his life to accompany Professor Liu would move Professor Liu and even change him.
In officialdom, one's attitude was very important. Ma Yingjie understood this more and more. If he did not pledge his life to follow his boss, he would not have gained the complete trust of his boss and Situ Lan.
Trust decided everything, and trust won everything.
Now, as long as Ma Yingjie worked hard, he would have enough power to solve all kinds of problems in Qin County. He knew that Jiang Chaoqun would soon be replaced by Cao Wuwen. Because Mei Jie appeared in front of them at this time, it was obvious that Jiang Chaoqun was showing weakness and trying to please them.
Ma Yingjie was not the kind of person who would haggle over every detail, but he was also not the kind of person who would forget his principles when he saw something good. Seeing Mei Jie's smile, Ma Yingjie tried his best to welcome Mei Jie's smile without any emotion.
Mei Jie said, "Mayor County Magistrate Ma, I'm sorry. We came here to play, and we scared Professor Liu and you." Mei Jie addressed Ma Yingjie respectfully. Of course Ma Yingjie understood, but he still said calmly, "Thank you for coming to save us, Director Mei. We appreciate your kindness."
Li Xiaomei snorted coldly. Mei Jie hurriedly said to Li Xiaomei with a smile, "Sister Li, I'm sorry. I didn't know that you were accompanying guests from Beijing. I'm really sorry."
"Director Mei also has the time to say sorry. I can't bear it." Li Xiaomei took the opportunity to hit Mei Jie.
Ma Yingjie was really afraid that the two women would fight again. This woman never forgot to be angry at any time. Was it because of a boat? Of course, he would not express his dissatisfaction. Instead, he said to Li Xiaomei, "Let's go back to the hotel. Professor Liu was frightened."
Liu Rusheng also pulled Li Xiaomei, and Mei Jie hurriedly said, "Secretary Jiang has arranged a room for you in the Nanzi Lake Hotel. Follow me."
Li Xiaomei didn't want to go, so she stood still. Ma Yingjie winked at Liu Rusheng, indicating that he should persuade Li Xiaomei to go. This was not the time to be angry. Jiang Chaoqun was at least the secretary at present. Except for the matter of Su Xiaoyang, Li Xiaomei had nothing on him at present. At this time, it was easy to get hurt if she confronted Jiang Chaoqun. This woman was too impatient, and it was too easy for her to get emotional. She thought that if she had a backer, someone would support them even if the sky fell. But if the sky fell, would the men be able to support it?
Ma Yingjie thought of Sisi again. Meng Chenglin was their sky. Now that the sky fell, would she and Luo Wanzhi be able to support it? As soon as this thought came up, Ma Yingjie desperately suppressed it. No matter what, he could not provoke Sisi anymore. He hoped that she could understand and forgive him one day.
In any political battle, each side would protect their own masters. If Ma Yingjie did not do this, he would be letting down Luo Tianyun's trust and cultivation. Moreover, even if he did not tell Luo Tianyun about the huge sum of money from BNP Paribas, Luo Tianyun would still get it. It was just that it would not be so fast.
In a political battle, the opponents would collect evidence and blackmail each other. It depended on whose blackmail was more lethal. When the incident between Luo Tianyun and Luan Xiaoxue was exposed, Luo Tianyun was hurt and heartbroken. He even had to compromise and let Luan Xiaoxue marry him.
Every political battle required sacrifice and effort. Ma Yingjie had used Sisi, but he was not happy at all. He was not relaxed at all, and he was not even complacent at all.
