Hu Changqing could not help but feel strange. Could it be that his nerves had really turned around? His heart could not help but move. Right, he should have found out that his sister had given up on the Secretary of the Political and Law Committee for him some time ago. He must have been touched. In addition to so many years of polishing, it was only right for him to have some changes. It seemed that it was a blessing in disguise. If her sister gave up that position and changed her brother-in-law, it wouldn't be a bad thing.
Gong Tianying finished laughing and continued,"Old Wang from Longkou District has arrived at the station. I'm going to let Shaofeng take his place. As for Changxia, if I miss it, I can only wait for another opportunity.”
Hu Changqing couldn't help but glance at his uncle. Although Longkou District wasn't the most benevolent district in Jiang City, it was still one of the urban areas. Moreover, its economic strength was in the middle. He had calculated that his brother-in-law should be in the district branch office, but he didn't expect to be pushed to such an important position. His uncle must have put in a lot of effort for his brother-in-law. Even if he was the boss of Jiang City's public security system, the final decision wasn't in his hands as the chief of the provincial city branch office. Moreover, it was this special port.
Gong Tianying seemed to have noticed his confusion. He smiled and said,"Speaking of which, it's all thanks to Changxia. The position of the Secretary of the Political and Law Committee last time ended up in Chief Qin's hands. So this time, Chief Qin is more supportive of me when it comes to the candidate for the Longkou District Branch.”
Gong Tianying glanced at the clock on the wall and saw that it was 1:30. He stood up and said,"Alright, it's almost time. You still have to go to work. Hurry up and settle the matter at the gas station. Sigh, about work, think about it carefully. It's best if you can figure it out yourself. There's no hurry. I'll talk to Second Brother, but I still hope that you can mature quickly. Let's go down." After saying that, he patted Hu Changqing's shoulder and went downstairs.
Hu Changqing followed him downstairs. His cousin Gong Pei did not go to school and was still watching TV with Huang Xiaoling. Her expression was a little ugly. Then, she remembered that when she was washing her hands, Gong Pei seemed to have mentioned that he wanted him to send her to school. She hurriedly walked past his uncle and walked to the coffee table. She picked up the car keys and said to Gong Pei with a smile,"Ah, Young Miss, it's my fault. No, it's all Uncle's fault for nagging too much. Once he says it, it won't end. Let's go, let's go. Otherwise, we'll be late.”
Gong Pei stood up reluctantly, his lips curled up slightly, but his footsteps were more active than Hu Changqing's. After all, he had always been a good student, and he didn't want to be late for no reason.
When Hu Changqing passed the entrance, he found that Aunty Wang was still busy in the kitchen. He quickly pulled his cousin who had already walked in front of him and shouted,"Auntie Wang, thank you for your hard work. I'll leave first. I'll call in advance the next time I come.”Aunty Wang quickly put down what she was doing and came over to send him off.
At this moment, Huang Xiaoling's voice came from behind." I was wondering why the girl hadn't left yet. So she was waiting for you. Changqing, don't be anxious. Drive slowly."”Hu Changqing could only respond hurriedly before he was pulled away by his cousin.
Huang Xiaoling smiled as she watched the two of them leave. She said to Gong Tian, who was sitting beside her,""Why did you talk for so long this time? Did you talk about a lot of things? I saw that Changqing's face was a little heavy when he went downstairs. Did they quarrel?”
Gong Tianying was rummaging through the slightly messy fruit plate with his hands. He picked up an apple and put it in his mouth. As he chewed, he said,"Yes, there are more things to do and they are more in-depth. Second Brother thinks that we can slowly let Changqing participate. What are your thoughts? I will quarrel with him. Some things had a huge impact on him. He just needed time to think about it. It was fine.”With that, she picked up another apple and put it in her mouth.
Huang Xiaoling pursed her lips and glared at Gong Tianying."I have something to tell you. Big Sis doesn't like Yushan very much, so she asked me to introduce Changqing to someone. The kid from the Military Commissar Wang's family is very nice. I've seen him a few times. He's still in university. He's cute and pretty, and most importantly, he looks innocent. To be honest, I don't really like Yushan. She's too cold.”Perhaps it was because she saw her husband eating happily, Huang Xiaoling could not help but pick up a piece of star fruit from the fruit plate and put it in her mouth.
Gong Tianying was stunned. He didn't expect Huang Xiaoling to suddenly say this. He said calmly,""What era are we in now? Besides, you two are the only ones who can be sure of this. Don't make things like what happened with Changxia and make Yushan hate us for no reason.”However, when he thought of his sister's strong personality, he said,"Sigh, we'll talk about it when the time comes. Don't push it too hard. Alright, I'm leaving too." With that, she went upstairs to change her clothes.
Hu Changqing had been saying all sorts of good things and promising benefits since he got into the car, but Gong Pei was just sitting in the passenger seat with his head lowered and playing with his phone. His small mouth could even hang a water bottle. He could not help but smile bitterly.
He had always doted on this youngest cousin of his generation. Moreover, his cousin was pretty and cute to begin with. Gong Pei had inherited his uncle and aunt's genes. He had delicate facial features and a well-proportioned figure. She had been pretty and cute since she was young, and when she grew up, she was even more youthful and charming. Therefore, she was a true princess among her relatives. Although she had a good personality, she would still throw a tantrum from time to time. Occasionally, she would be unruly and unreasonable.
Hu Changqing suddenly had an idea. His cousin wouldn't let him send her off for no reason. His uncle's car was fine too. He said,"Bebe, big brother was wrong this time. Please forgive me. I told you just now that if you want to buy anything in the future, you can just tell cousin. Oh right, do you have something you need cousin to help you with? Tell me, I'll promise you anything.”Bei Bei was Gong Pei's nickname. His relatives and elders usually called him Bei Bei.
Gong Pei finally raised his head and said coquettishly,"Forget it. You'll definitely be late this time. You said that you'll agree to anything.”After saying that, he looked at Hu Changqing. After receiving an affirmative answer, he continued,"My current deskmate and my last friend, Yao Chen, her boyfriend is coming over from Louhua to visit her next week. They have agreed to go disco dancing together.”As he spoke, his voice could not help but become lower. He lowered his head again. He knew that things were going to be difficult, but he was also looking forward to it. His hand that was holding his phone was a little pale from nervousness.
Hu Changqing frowned slightly and did not answer immediately. After the car passed a traffic light and made a turn, he said,"Didn't I bring you to a disco? You saw how chaotic it was there. Besides, Uncle also said that you can go there when you turn 19. Why do you have a boyfriend in your first year of high school? Don't be led astray.”Gong Tianying had a strict upbringing. As a police officer, he knew how foul places were, so he was strict with Gong Pei. Hu Changqing had brought her to his clubhouse, where there was a small wine glass. Of course, because the level was different, it was not as messy and foul as the bars outside.
"You said you'd agree to anything just now. Hmph, you don't keep your word." Gong Pei said in a low voice.”After saying that, he even gave Hu Changqing a sideways glance.
Hu Changqing couldn't help but find it funny. He thought for a moment and said with a smile,"Alright, alright. I'll go with you when the time comes. That's fine, right? This is the bottom line.”
When Gong Pei heard this, he almost jumped up and shouted,"Yeah!" Suddenly, he hugged Hu Changqing's right hand that was holding the steering wheel and said,"Brother is still the best."
"Let go, let go. I'm driving." Hu Changqing quickly said.”Seeing Gong Pei's sudden smile, the tangled thoughts in his heart couldn't help but fade a little.
When the car arrived at the entrance of Jiang City No. 12 Middle School, the bell for class had just rung. There were already a few students running in because they were late at the school gate. Gong Pei picked up his bag and ran in. He didn't even have time to say "bye" to Hu Changqing.
When Hu Changqing saw his cousin's figure disappear at the school gate, he turned the steering wheel and rejoined the traffic. He frowned slightly, and his slightly calmed thoughts surfaced in his mind again. It seemed that he had to think about it in the afternoon.
It was already summer in Jiang City in May, and the streets were already hot. Although it was not time to get off work, there were already a lot of people. The traffic on the road was endless all day, and the sound of people and cars was noisy. The green belts on both sides of the road had long been buried by dust. The green in the fences could no longer be seen. Only the taller French parasol trees could still maintain their original color, but it was not the serene green. Although he didn't want to admit it, Hu Changqing still had to admit that this was a noisy city that made people a little annoyed.
Hu Changqing had parked the car downstairs of the Jiangcheng Industrial and Commercial Bank's headquarters for almost half an hour. He lowered the back of his seat and lay on the chair to continue his afternoon's thinking. He realized that he was actually not as dazzling and confident as he looked on the surface, especially after talking to his uncle today, whether it was his current job or love.
Every time he had something to think about, he would frown involuntarily. At this time, the gully between his eyebrows seemed particularly long.
His parents only cared about making money when he was young, which caused him to be alienated. Although he had grown a lot more relaxed, he still subconsciously resisted his father. This kind of thought was very invisible, but it was obvious to people with discerning eyes. This was also why his uncle easily pointed it out.
If he subconsciously tried to make money, he wanted to break away from his father's control of money, or even surpass his father. However, from time to time, he accepted his father's help. It was a very contradictory behavior. In fact, his resistance was not firm.
Hu Changqing laughed at himself. His uncle was right. Even if he put everything aside and desperately earned money, could he really surpass his father in terms of money? Obviously not. Moreover, he knew very well how much of his income over the years was due to his uncle's power and father's resources.
His father, Hu An, had been known as the richest man in Jiang City ten years ago. Hu Bancheng had relied on the primitive accumulation of doing business to control a large area of land in Jiang City. Some of them were even in prosperous areas. Over the years, due to the real estate boom, many of them had been sold out, but the land in his hands was still considerable. Some of them were in prime locations.
Although new technology and real estate companies had risen in recent years, and his father's reputation was not as great as before, his assets were more objective than before. As his uncle and uncle's official positions rose one after another, in order to avoid the impact, his father gradually became an invisible rich man in Jiang City. He did not get involved in the business world much, but their family's money was enough for him to squander for a few lifetimes.
Therefore, all of his financial actions were actually very meaningless. He already had a large amount of family property that could be squandered for several generations to inherit, so why would he spend so much effort to earn that small amount of money? It was no wonder that his uncle and the others did not understand. They were somewhat disappointed that he did not live up to his expectations. They even felt that his actions were laughable and childish.
Hu Changqing couldn't help but sigh. He was still immature. Actually, there was another reason that he thought of in the afternoon. His actions were also in line with his identity as a member of the Yamen. Everyone in the circle played like this, so he had no choice but to join. Although it was superficial, it was indeed so.
He adjusted his chair and saw people coming out of the building. Some of the executives had already started to get off work. Hu Changqing didn't see Chen Yushan, so he didn't want to wait downstairs. He had already informed Chen Yushan that since she hadn't come down for so long, she must be busy with work. Instead of waiting in the car, he might as well go to her office to have some tea.
Whenever people stood in the present to examine or ridicule their past actions or words, it meant that this person was more mature than before. Hu Changqing smiled and greeted a few people he knew from the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China. However, there was an indescribable throbbing in his heart. He felt that his heart was stronger than before. This was a very wonderful feeling.
