Chapter 985

(middle)

Xiao Meihong was still arranging someone to prepare meals in the kitchen. When she heard Xue Weitong's greeting, she responded with a smile: "You eat first, I'll cook a Su Mei for you to taste."

Xue Weitong said: "There is a chef, so you don't need you, come and drink." From the conversation between her and Xiao Meihong, we can see that they have a very familiar relationship.

Xiao Meihong had no choice but to come over. Xue Weitong pulled her to sit beside her, and also gave Xiao Meihong a small cup, and smiled and said to Zhang Yang: "You are not alone now, let's accompany you."

Zhang Yang said: "It's a great honor to have two great beauties accompanying you, so I can only have two drinks."

It was said that I would drink two glasses, but it was not possible to solve the problem if I actually drank it. Mr. Xue and Xiang Cheng finished the meal early. If they didn't drink, they would naturally not stay at the table for too long.

Mr. Xue suggested going to the yard for a walk. Xiang Chengzheng had this intention and accompanied Mr. Xue to the courtyard outside.

Night had already fallen, and the two of them came to the pavilion in the backyard. The pavilion was located on a rockery made of strange stones. Standing here, you can see the sea view in the distance. The night had blurred the boundaries between the sea and the sky. The sea breeze brought waves. Mr. Xue sat down in the pavilion and whispered: "Is the heavy rain in Beigang this time a big impact?"

Xiang Cheng said truthfully: "The disaster-stricken people were 890,000, and the direct economic losses were 150 million yuan. This heavy rain was the largest since the founding of the People's Republic of China, causing serious economic losses to Beigang. The great blessing in disgrace was that there were no casualties."

Mr. Xue nodded and said, "If things are gone, they can be reborn, but if life is gone, they can never be saved." When he said this, Mr. Xue couldn't help but think of himself. He thought that his life was about to end, and it was Zhang Yang's appearance that made him rekindle his hope for life. However, Mr. Xue also understood that human death is inevitable. Even if Zhang Yang can prolong his life, he can never change his own destination. He has not had much time in this world. Only when a person is about to complete his life journey can he truly understand the value of life.

Xiang Chengran apologized: "It's because I haven't done my job well. I still have many shortcomings in my management in Beigang over the years."

Mr. Xue sighed, but his sigh kept burrowing into Xiang Cheng's heart. Xiang Cheng felt an indescribable fear. Does Mr. Xue's sigh mean disappointment in himself?

Mr. Xue said: "How long will your term still last?"

Xiang Cheng said: "One or two months." He smiled and said: "I often think that after I retreat, I will move back to my hometown in the suburbs of Beijing. If you have nothing to do, I will chat with you."

Mr. Xue said: "It may be a good thing to live a different way."

Xiang Cheng's words just now were intended to test Mr. Xue. If Mr. Xue continues to help him, perhaps his political career could last for several years. However, judging from Mr. Xue's words, the old man obviously would not speak for himself anymore. Xiang Cheng was full of disappointment, but he could not reveal this disappointment. Xiang Cheng is a person who knows how to be grateful. The old man has paid enough to him. Without Mr. Xue's support, he would not be able to reach his current position. A contented person is always happy. If he can achieve what he has today, what else is there to be dissatisfied with?

Mr. Xue said: "How about Xiaofei and Xiaoyun?" These two are Xiang Cheng's children.

Xiang Cheng smiled and said, "Xiaofei has graduated and has found a job in the United States. Xiaoyun is still studying in Canada. These two children are probably unwilling to come back." His children are all studying abroad with the help of Xue Shilun, and Xiang Cheng and the Xue family have always had a good relationship.

Mr. Xue said: "I haven't seen them for many years. Xiang Cheng still wants to persuade them to come back. It is a good thing to go out to learn advanced knowledge from abroad. But after learning, you must not forget your motherland and come back to serve the knowledge you have learned to the country."

Xiang Cheng said: "I have advised them too, but the children nowadays have different ideas than us. They think there are more opportunities for development abroad."

Mr. Xue sighed again, and couldn't help but think of his son. He whispered: "I don't understand Shilun's departure back then."

Xiang Cheng said: "It's a pity that Shilun. If he chose his career, his current achievements would be limitless."

Mr. Xue reached out and patted Xiang Cheng on the shoulder: "Xiang Cheng, everyone has their own ambitions, and many things are not something we can force."

Xiang Cheng nodded, and he turned to the villa behind him and whispered: "Guocheng, I haven't been back for a while."

Mr. Xue said: "I heard that he opened a hotel to the United States, and business is booming now."

Xiao Meihong has a good alcohol content, at least she has much better ability to drink than water. After dinner, Xue Weitong went to take a shower, and Xiao Meihong invited Zhang Yang to the study and opened a bottle of good red wine.

Xiao Meihong said: "I always want to find an opportunity to express my gratitude to Secretary Zhang alone."

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "The things have passed, we don't need to mention them."

Xiao Meihong said: "I drove halfway through that day and found that the water was too deep. I didn't want to move forward, but I didn't expect the vehicle behind to rear-end and hit my car in. It was probably a destined disaster."

Zhang Yang frowned. The car was not fast in the heavy rain that day, and he didn't expect a rear-end collision to happen? This incident was a bit strange. He smiled and said, "Ms. Xiao must not offend anyone, right?"

Xiao Meihong shook her head, took a sip of red wine and said, "I have been in the mall for so many years. The most proud thing I feel is that I never offend others. I believe no one will conspire to murder me."

Zhang Yang said: "It is difficult to do this in a market of intrigue."

Xiao Meihong said: "There are two most dangerous places in this world, one is the shopping mall and the other is the officialdom. These two places are also the most susceptible places to offend people. Has Secretary Zhang offended anyone in the officialdom?"

Zhang Daguan Ren was in a meditative state. After thinking for a while, he couldn't help laughing: "I can't even remember it." His smile was full of infectiousness.

Xiao Meihong also laughed: "Most of the people in the officialdom are deep and restrained, and it is rare for people as cheerful as Secretary Zhang."

Zhang Yang said: "I am used to being heartless and don't take the big troubles to heart."

Xiao Meihong said: "Secretary Zhang is so forgetful. He can forget everything that saves people's lives by turning around."

Zhang Yang said: "As you said, it is also destined. This matter is destined by God and has nothing to do with me. Even if I don't save you, there will definitely be another person to save you. God is destined, and your life should not be lost."

Xiao Meihong smiled and said, "Since you don't want to mention it, I won't say it anymore. After the incident that day passed, I was always a little scared."

Zhang Yang drank the red wine in the glass in one breath, and it was so sour, and he smashed his mouth.

Xiao Meihong was about to pour it on him again. Zhang Yang shook his head and said that he didn't need it anymore. He looked up at the study and whispered: "This villa can rank among the top three in the luxury houses I have seen."

Xiao Meihong said: "Guandi No. 1 was built seven years ago, and it took three years to be built before and after the renovation. My uncle built this villa in order to retire in the future, but after the completion, he was busy with business and had very few opportunities to live here."

Zhang Yang said: "I have never met Mr. Xiao. I heard that he is the richest man in Beigang. Now it seems that he is indeed worthy of his reputation."

Xiao Meihong said: "My uncle is not from Beigang. He lived in Beigang for a while and later met my aunt. Because of my aunt, he also developed a relationship with Beigang like his hometown."

Zhang Yang said: "Ms. Xiao is from Beigang?"

Xiao Meihong sighed and said, "Seven years ago, when building No. 1, Guandi, my uncle said that after the construction is completed, he will retire and live with my aunt. However, if this house is not built, my aunt will get cancer and eventually die in the United States. She has not lived in this house for a day."

Official Zhang thought to himself that it was true that each family had its own misfortune, and wealth and honor were like Xiao Guocheng, and there were also unhappiness. This No. 1 building was originally for his wife. No wonder Xiao Guocheng lived here very little and missed people. I guess he would not be happy to live here. Zhang Yang said: "Mr. Xiao and Mr. Xue have known each other for a long time?"

Xiao Meihong nodded and said, "My uncle is Mr. Xue's godson. Few people know about this. My grandparents died in the War of Liberation. My grandfather and Mr. Xue were good friends, so they adopted my uncle. It can be said that without Mr. Xue, my uncle would have starved to death long ago."

Zhang Yang said: "Aren't your dad and the others?"

Xiao Meihong said: "He is my cousin!" At that time, the family was in a difficult situation and he couldn't even get enough. Even if he wanted to take care of him, he was powerless.

Zhang Daren finally clarified the relationship. No wonder Mr. Xue came to Beigang and went straight to Baidao. It turned out that Xiao Guocheng and him had this relationship. Xiao Guo became a human being, indeed, low-key enough. He had such a strong godfather as Mr. Xue, but he never showed off outside. Thinking about himself, everyone knows that Wen Haonan was his godfather.

Xiao Meihong said: "You asked me for a long time. Now it's time for me to ask you, how did you and Mr. Xue meet?"

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "It's very simple!" He told her about his experience of becoming a sworn brother with Xue Weitong, and naturally he didn't mention anything about his relationship with Mr. Xue because of medical treatment.

Xiao Meihong said: "In this way, we are still somewhat related."

Zhang Yang looked at her in surprise.

Xiao Meihong said: "My uncle is Mr. Xue's adopted son, and you are Weitong's righteous brother. In other words, you should call my uncle "Uncle Fuck!"

Zhang Daguanren smiled and said, "This relationship is a bit messy. If you say so, won't you become my god girl?"

Xiao Meihong said: "I am much older than you. Secretary Zhang, you are twenty-seven years old this year, and I am already thirty years old!" Xiao Meihong knew Zhang Yang's information very well.

Zhang Daguanren found that Xiao Meihong was a little different from others. She was not afraid of her age and talked about her different ages from ordinary women. She was very calm about all this, and Xiao Meihong did not hide anything about family relationships. Is this because Zhang Yang saved her life, or is Xiao Meihong's own personality so straightforward?
