The booming era begins with the director of the Propaganda Department!

Chapter 441 Shameless!
As soon as Zhang Shenfei walked out of the door, he saw a familiar beautiful figure standing under the lush plane tree on the opposite side of the road.

The girl has a tall and straight figure and a Hu Lan hairstyle that was common in that era, but she still couldn't hide her beauty.

Is it Lou Xiaoe? Zhang Shenfei's eyes lit up.

Ever since the last meeting and confrontation with Lou Zhenhua and his wife, Zhang Shenfei and Lou Xiao'e's relationship has become open and they are no longer secretly together.

It’s just that they both have their own things to do, one is busy with work and the other is busy with studies.

We don't meet often, and the frequency has always been about two to three times a month.

usually,

Zhang Shenfei always took time out to wait for Lou Xiaoe at the gate of Yenching University.

The two of them find a place to be intimate, eat, watch a movie, etc.

Lou Xiao'e's sudden appearance this time, was there some sudden incident?

Zhang Shenfei's mind moved, and he walked over slowly, but he did not recognize Lou Xiaoe, and just passed by her.

The two of them walked one after the other on the streets of Sijiu City.

It was just after get off work, and among the busy crowd of cyclists and people, there was no sign that the two of them had any acquaintance with each other.

Just like that, like strangers, the two walked to a secluded place, one in front and one behind.

Zhang Shenfei stopped, leaned against the wall and lit a cigarette.

The autumn sun shone on the side of his face, and even his hair seemed to turn golden.

Lou Xiao'e walked in before I had taken two puffs of my cigarette.

Seeing Zhang Shenfei like this, Lou Xiao'e couldn't help but be moved.

Suppressing her pounding heart, she walked up to Zhang Shenfei and said, "Da Fei, my father wants to see you."

"Don't be in a hurry. Wipe the sweat off your face first. Look how hot you are." Zhang Shenfei took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped Lou Xiao'e's cheek.

He is tall, has long legs and takes big steps. One step of his is equivalent to two steps of Lou Xiao'e.

I didn't notice it just now, but after walking this distance, Lou Xiao'e was very tired.

"Yeah, it's okay. I'm not tired." Lou Xiao'e raised her head and let him wipe the sweat off her face. At the same time, she asked curiously, "Da Fei, do you know why my father suddenly came to you? I asked him, but he just wouldn't tell me."

Although Dad and Zhang Shenfei had not seen each other since their last meeting, she knew that Dad had been following Zhang Shenfei's news and had asked some friends about his situation.

This time, Dad suddenly asked to meet Zhang Shenfei, and Lou Xiao'e felt that there must be some reason.

I also asked my sister-in-law and mother behind their backs, but they both said they didn't know.

"Dafei, Dad said you can definitely guess why he wants to talk to you about this. Can you?" Lou Xiao'e looked at Zhang Shenfei, her eyes full of curiosity.

There are three men in the family. Apart from the brainless eldest brother, my father and Dafei are always hard to understand.

Zhang Shenfei didn't respond to Lou Xiaoe's words, but raised his hand to ruffle her hair: "I can probably guess it... Don't worry about it, I will take care of it."

Seeing that Zhang Shenfei had no intention of telling her, Lou Xiao'e couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

But remembering that she could stay with Zhang Shenfei for a while longer today, she quickly cheered up again: "It doesn't matter if you don't tell me, I'm just afraid that Dad will cause trouble for you again...

He is sometimes very stubborn and a little arrogant, and doesn't take others seriously. If he offends you, tell me and I will have a fight with him! ! "

Tsk tsk tsk, it turns out that girls are extroverts. Now they start criticizing their own father...

Zhang Shenfei smiled, feeling very happy: "Don't worry, I can handle it. By the way, what time did your father ask me to meet?"

After learning that the appointment was for 8 o'clock in the evening, which was still some time away, Zhang Shenfei suggested taking Lou Xiao'e out for Western food.

Previously, the most famous Western restaurants in the city were only Dadi and Lao Mo. In recent years, several new restaurants have opened, making them considered new upstarts.

Ever since her family started to keep a low profile, Lou Xiao'e has never eaten Western food again. When she heard Zhang Shenfei's proposal, she was immediately excited.

The two discussed it and decided to go to Lao Mo, where the Mao Xiong meals are very authentic.

Although in the past two years, my country and the Bear Country have completely fallen out, the other side even withdrew all experts and the aid projects have been stopped.

But in the minds of Chinese people, the idea that Western food is equivalent to Western food is deeply rooted.

Although Western restaurants such as Lao Mo and Dadi have no foreign guests, their business has not been greatly affected by the support of people like Dayuanzi and Gao G.

After the two arrived, Zhang Shenfei chose his usual beetroot soup, braised lamb and soufflé.

It was obvious that Lou Xiao'e had often eaten at these places before. Without even looking at the menu, she ordered several of her signature dishes.

While waiting for the food to be served, Lou Xiao'e held her chin with her hand, feeling bored. Suddenly, her eyes lit up, she twirled Zhang Shenfei's clothes, and whispered:

"Da Fei, look at those kids over there...are they stealing something?"

Zhang Shenfei followed Lou Xiao'e's gaze and saw a few children who looked to be around fifteen years old, wearing officers' woolen coats that they got from somewhere. While the waiter was not paying attention, they were putting the silver knives and forks on the table into their pockets.

Judging from his proficiency, he must be a repeat offender.

This was the first time Lou Xiaoe had seen this scene. She tilted her head in confusion and asked, "Why are these kids stealing other people's knives and forks?"

It's no wonder she felt confused. These days, Western food has not entered the homes of ordinary people. It is a symbol of high-end luxury.

The average price per person for a meal here is as low as five yuan, which is equivalent to a month's expenses for ordinary people in Beijing.

If you can afford to eat at such a high-end restaurant, why do you steal tableware???
Lou Xiao'e couldn't figure it out, but Zhang Shenfei understood it immediately.

Those kids who were stealing the dishes over there were all from wealthy families, and their parents were high-ranking officials. To put it bluntly, they were not short of money.

Over the years, these children have grown up.

Because of the lack of parental supervision, unwillingness to study, and background, no one dared to discipline him.

He ran around the city every day, looking for ways to cause trouble, and caused quite a few incidents.

In fact, what these people do is the same as those alley urchins, but they think highly of themselves. In order to distinguish themselves from the alley urchins, they even give themselves a nickname called veterans.

These kids are not short of money, and what they look for when they open their eyes every day is excitement.

It is their traditional project to steal tableware from high-end Western restaurants like Lao Mo and then sell it in consignment stores.

When there is a power outage or something like that, these ignorant guys can even carry away the tables and chairs in the restaurant.

really,

It seemed to confirm what Zhang Shenfei had just said.

The next second after Lou Xiao'e questioned, "Really? Can they really carry away even the tables and chairs?"

Lao Mo's power was cut off. These days, even in the old city there is a shortage of electricity, with power outages every other day.

The waiter was very experienced and quickly brought candles and started lighting them for the customers at each table.

When they walked to the table where the guys were, a waiter exclaimed, "Why are there no knives and forks on the table? There are even two stools missing?"

"Where are the people here? Why are they all gone? They were here just now!!!"

Hiss, he really stole the stool! !
Lou Xiao'e covered her mouth with her hands, looking incredulous.

Lao Mo’s tables, chairs and benches are all made of solid wood, and each weighs twenty kilograms.

She couldn't imagine how those guys could run away quickly with knives and forks in their arms and chairs while the waiter was getting candles. "It must be those brats!! I've memorized their faces. If they dare to come over here again, I'll take them to the police station!" The restaurant manager stamped his feet and said angrily.

But in fact, he knew it in his heart.

Those who dare to do these things are the children in the big compound. Even if they are really sent to the police station, at most they will be criticized and educated, and there will be no consequences.

He said this only because he was afraid that the other guests would follow suit.

The diners around seemed to be used to it. They just chatted with each other for a few minutes and then that was it.

After the little episode, Zhang Shenfei and Lou Xiaoe continued to eat.

After dinner, the two of them deliberately bypassed the familiar streets, walked sweetly along the road, and headed towards the Lou family villa.

When they arrived, sister-in-law Lou Xiao'e opened the door for them: "Dad is already waiting in the study on the second floor. Tell Shen Fei to go directly over when he arrives."

She still had that familiar, polite smile on her face, but her eyes showed fatigue that could not be hidden.

"Okay, thank you, sister-in-law." Zhang Shenfei nodded at her.

The three of them arrived at the living room, where Lou Xiao'e, her sister-in-law and her mother were waiting.

Zhang Shenfei went up to the second floor alone and met Lou Xiaofeng at the corner of the stairs.

Lou Xiaofeng was so arrogant that he didn't even look at Zhang Shenfei.

Zhang Shenfei didn't tolerate him and just pretended he didn't see them passing by.

"No manners! He doesn't even know to say hello when he sees someone." Lou Xiaofeng muttered.

"Of course I have to say hello when I see people, but if I see something else, it depends on my mood." Zhang Shenfei did not indulge him and snorted coldly.

Damn it! !

When he realized that he was calling him a bad person, Lou Xiaofeng flew into a rage.

But he knew that his father had something important to discuss with Zhang Shenfei, although he didn't know what it was.

But he also knew that if he came into conflict with Zhang Shenfei now and messed up something, his father would definitely not forgive him.

Helplessly, he could only suppress the anger in his heart, snorted coldly and went downstairs.

Zhang Shenfei smiled silently at his back, what a useless piece of trash, with nothing good except his temper.

Zhang Shenfei arrived at the door of the study on the second floor.
I saw that the door was not locked, but was open with a gap about the size of a palm.

Zhang Shenfei stopped at the door and knocked, but did not go in directly.

"Is that Zhang Shenfei? Come in directly?" Lou Zhenhua's voice came from the room.

Zhang Shenfei walked in and saw that tea was already on the coffee table. Lou Zhenhua made a gesture to him to sit down and have some tea.

The two sat opposite each other and began to drink tea, speechless for a while.

After drinking two cups of tea, Lou Zhenhua said:

"Have you heard? The daughter of the Chen family who sells silk, her name is Chen... Chen Xueru, she ran away some time ago and it is said that she took away all the belongings of the Chen family."

Zhang Shenfei blinked almost unnoticeably: "I've heard about this. Some people say he fled to Southeast Asia, some say he fled to Hong Kong, and some say he fled to Taiwan..."

"It's Hong Kong City." Lou Zhenhua said decisively. While picking up the teapot and pouring water into Zhang Shenfei's cup, he said, "I heard that she has opened a new silk shop there and has already set up the stall."

Zhang Shenfei raised his eyebrows and looked over curiously. He never expected that Lou Zhenhua was so powerful that he could even find out this.

He said calmly, "Really? Then this Chen Xueru is quite capable. If she were still in Sijiu City, I would like to make friends with her."

"Didn't you know about this in advance?" After Lou Zhenhua poured the water, he gently placed the cup on the table with a thump. "Why don't I believe it?"

Oh, it looks like something has been discovered.

Zhang Shenfei was not surprised at all, although in his opinion Chen Xueru's escape was as flawless as possible.

But as long as it is done by humans and there are enough links.

As long as there are people who are interested and capable enough to investigate, they will always be able to find something.

If you don't want others to know, then don't do it. Once you do it, there is a risk of being discovered.

"Of course I know." He refuted his statement that he didn't know Chen Xueru without blushing.

Lou Zhenhua seemed to have not expected that he would be so shameless. He denied what he said in less than a minute and was a little stunned.

After coming to his senses, he asked again: "Did you arrange for her to leave?"

Zhang Shenfei nodded: "That's right."

"Her son who is said to be adopted..." Although Lou Zhenhua said this, he had already made up his mind.

Why did Chen Xueru's adopted son have the surname Zhang? This question has also been answered.

Zhang Shenfei continued to nod: "It's my son, Zhang Handong, I named him. My own woman, my own son, I will naturally protect him."

Zhang Shenfei's words were very meaningful.

I thought my daughter was the second wife, but unexpectedly she went straight to the third wife... Lou Zhenhua was very depressed: "Do you have any other one out there?"

Zhang Shenfei smiled but did not answer, and Lou Zhenhua understood.

My goodness, it’s not even three bedrooms…

If it were in the past, when the Lou family was at its peak, he would not agree even if Lou Xiao'e was born to his concubine.

In other words, if this man was not Zhang Shenfei, he would not agree.

But now, Zhang Shenfei is no longer the propaganda officer of the steel rolling mill.

The most important thing is that according to the information he found, Zhang Shengfei seems to have a close connection with the Ministry of Foreign Trade...

Chen Xueru was able to escape to Gangcheng thanks to Zhang Shenfei’s help.

Lou Zhenhua is not stupid. The situation is becoming more and more serious, and everyone is looking for a way out for themselves.

Hong Kong City is the last way out for Lou Zhenhua and his family. He still has a large amount of deposits in the HSBC Bank there.

In the past, Lou Zhenhua didn't know where his hometown was, but now he can better understand the situation...

A few years ago, some people advised him to go there early while cross-strait relations were not too strict. However, he had too many things to consider and did not extricate himself in time.

However, due to some things that happened last year, cross-strait relations are no longer what they used to be. If he wants to get back together now, I'm afraid he may not be able to do so given his abilities.

The last backer can certainly help, but the big backer is now in a state of panic.

If he could win over Zhang Shenfei, he would be able to attack or defend without any worries.

The way to win over Zhang Shenfei is Lou Xiaoe...

Lou Zhenhua himself had four concubines and didn't care about these things.

Plus, Lou Xiao'e already liked Zhang Shenfei, so this was much better than a feudal arranged marriage...

In almost just a moment, he made the choice in his mind.
