Garden full of flowers

Colorful neon lights stretch silently into the distance in the summer night city. On the bank of the clear cloud lake, among the centuries-old trees, there are faintly a few villas with red walls and green tiles, charming gardens, and a walking path. The stone path passes through ponds, grass slopes, and century-old trees, and green willows sway gently in the breeze.

In Nanfeng where every inch of land is expensive, such an environment, such villas are very rare, but power can always easily own them. Few people know that one of these villas belongs to Ma Xingdong, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee Leisure places, of course, Ma Xingdong has a lot of opportunities in his calendar, and he rarely has time to live here.

Tonight is an exception.After Ma Xingdong received Yang Xue's call, he made an exception and canceled all the appointments, and arranged for Yang Xue to meet here.

Secretary Chen Yingquan stood leisurely under the willow tree, quietly watching Ma Xingdong who was fishing in the distance. In his memory as Ma Xingdong's secretary, it was the first time that such an exception was made.

The 40-year-old Chen Yingquan is undoubtedly successful. In the eyes of Nanfeng officials, the Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee can be regarded as a very special person, which is why there is a "No. [-] Chief". And with great effort, even the secretaries of the municipal party committees of various cities regarded Chen Yingquan as an important person.

Therefore, Chen Yingquan has a strong sense of self-confidence and superiority in his heart. Of course, this kind of self-confidence is only in front of subordinates or peers. In front of Ma Xingdong and those provincial party committee leaders, Chen Yingquan is cautious.

However, compared to Yang Xue, secretary of the Chunyang Municipal Party Committee, Chen Yingquan felt inferior to herself.Nanfeng's youngest party secretary, who dared to divorce the governor's daughter but was safe and sound, and the youngest reserve cadre in the central government, any one of them was enough to throw Chen Yingquan's self-confidence into the sky.

Including now, Chen Yingquan still has to meet Yang Xue here, it's okay, Chen Yingquan's level is already below Yang Xue's.However, Chen Yingquan still felt uncomfortable. How could he ask the secretary of the provincial party committee to wait when he met with the secretary of the provincial party committee?This Yang Xue is too outrageous!

While Chen Yingquan was thinking wildly, Yang Xue had already walked over, and Ma Xingdong waved his hand, "Yingquan, you go, I will be here with Yang Xue to accompany me!"

The difference in treatment made Chen Yingquan feel inexplicably disappointed, but he didn't dare to show it on his face. He quickly agreed to help the two make tea before leaving. Yang Xue was calm and composed in front of Ma Xingdong and handled things with ease, which Chen Yingquan could only envy.

Only then did Chen Yingquan realize that he was nothing without Ma Xingdong.This is the biggest difference between him and Yang Xue.

The breeze blows gently, and the mirror-like lake surface has some ripples. Ma Xingdong stared at the float in the lake and said with emotion: "Before I came to Nanfeng, I had a conversation with Comrade Ling Feng. Comrade Ling Feng was the first It was you who was mentioned, which shows how important you are in his heart. I joked at the time, in this case, I have to keep you in Nanfeng. Unexpectedly, Comrade Lingfeng still hasn't let you go after a year !"

"Thank you, Secretary Ma, for your support. It's a pity that I failed your expectations!" Yang Xue said sincerely. Indeed, during Ma Xingdong's tenure as secretary of the Nanfeng Provincial Party Committee, he has been letting go of him. This is the greatest support.

"In front of me, there is no need to be humble, right?" Ma Xingdong laughed. "I know Chunyang's situation well. Sometimes I really envy you young people. You dare to take risks and break the ice. Even if you make some mistakes, it's okay. But , as someone who has been here, I still want to remind you that you are still young, and there is still a long road ahead, you should know what to take and what to give up, don't look at the level of this cloud lake as a mirror, as if it is calm, in fact, maybe the undercurrent and The vortex is right below!"

Yang Xue's heart trembled, Ma Xingdong obviously meant something, but what did he mean?

Without waiting for Yang Xue to recall, Ma Xingdong continued: "As you get older, people become more verbose. Let's not mention this. What do you think of Chunyang's next team?"

"It's not an opinion, it's just an immature suggestion. The continuation of the policy can make a city develop healthily and sustainably. If possible, the candidates for the next team should come from Chunyang. Of course, this is just my personal opinion. Opinions, if the Provincial Party Committee has other opinions, I still support them!"

Yang Xue didn't recommend candidates. He had already mentioned the most important aspects. Ma Xingdong stands taller, sees farther, and considers issues more comprehensively. He must have his own considerations for Chunyang's next team.

Ma Xingdong frowned, and patted Yang Xue's shoulder with a smile. What he wanted was Yang Xue's words. Yang Xue has already put her brand on the city after two years in Chunyang, no matter who the successor is, With Yang Xue's support, they can take over Chunyang better.

After Chen Lingfeng was transferred from Nanfeng, Li Yucheng had not been in office for a long time, so Ma Xingdong took over as secretary of the Nanfeng Provincial Party Committee. Out of the consideration of stabilizing the overall situation, Ma Xingdong did not make too many adjustments to Nanfeng. Chen Lingfeng's influence can be described as It was completely preserved, and after Xie Mingyang, who had a special relationship with Yang Xue, took office, the situation was even more unfavorable for Ma Xingdong, so Ma Xingdong was in favor of Yang Xue's going to Guangnan.

The cadre rotation between Yang Xue and Ma Minsheng was actually due to Ma Xingdong's factors.

However, at the moment when Yang Xue left, Ma Xingdong was reluctant to give up. After all, Ma Xingdong saw Yang Xue's performance in Chunyang clearly, and the divorce between Yang Xue and Xie Menghua became a turning point. It is undoubtedly more beneficial to Ma Xingdong.

Ma Xingdong was busy with work, so the conversation didn't last long. Before parting, Ma Xingdong held Yang Xue's hand, "Xiao Yang, to be honest, I don't want you to leave! Forget it, these are all nonsense, let's go." Qin Shan, I send you six words—to respond to all changes with the same!"

Maintaining the status quo!

Leaving Yunhu, on the way back to Chunyang, Yang Xue still recalled these six words at ease. The situation in Qinshan is complicated, and Yang Xue must follow the same steps and be careful every step of the way. in principle.

However, how easy is it to achieve this "unchanged"?

Regarding Yang Xue's departure, Ma Xingdong didn't say a word, but his earnest warning made Yang Xue feel the danger of going to Guangnan. On the other hand, no matter how sincere Ma Xingdong was in the conversation tonight, Yang Xue felt I am grateful, Ma Xingdong has always been tolerant towards him, at least tolerant of his youthful arrogance, and even more tolerant of his disobedience and offense.

Yang Xue knew that Ma Xingdong was warning about money and women. In any case, as an official, with huge assets and multiple women, it was always an unclear question. In Nanfeng, Yang Xue had few direct enemies, and , Chen Lingfeng's ubiquitous influence in Nanfeng is enough to guarantee Yang Xue's safety.

However, no problem does not mean that there will be no problem. As Ma Xingdong said, the level of Yunhu Lake is like a mirror, and it may be an undercurrent and a vortex.The good thing is that now that Yang Xue is divorced, although the relationship is chaotic, it can be attributed to feelings after all.

Thinking of divorce, Yang Xue couldn't help but think of Xie Menghua. Could this be the purpose of Xie Menghua's divorce?

Since the divorce, Yang Xue and Xie Menghua haven't seen each other again. Occasionally, Yang Xue will think of the good times they had, but the deeper memory is Xie Menghua's unfeeling.Especially when Xie Menghua said in a relaxed tone, "Occasionally, I will play a long-lost game", Yang Xue was deeply hurt.

Missing is always accompanied by pain, Yang Xue lighted a cigarette for the first time, spit out the past like smoke, galloped all the way, and slid into the night of Chunyang.

Before the south wind came out, he received a call from Ouyang Kun. Li Dongdong and Ouyang Kun were in Yinyue Guild Hall and invited Yang Xue to have a drink.

Yang Xue couldn't help but smile wryly, he will go to Guangnan soon, and he can't take Yang Yi there, he originally planned to spend the next two days with Yang Yi, but look at the time, at 09:30, Yang Yi also fell asleep when he returned to Chunyang, Yang Xue simply Turn around and go to the Silver Moon Guild Hall.

In the radiant ktv room, a nearly naked beauty is crazily twisting her waist and hips accompanied by violent music. Li Dongdong and Ouyang Kun each occupy a sofa, each hugging two scantily clad beauties and laughing loudly , Seeing Yang Xue, Ouyang Kun let go of his hand, raised the red wine on the tea table, and said to Yang Xue: "Come on, let's have a toast to celebrate getting promoted!"

"For a luxurious life!" Yang Xue smiled slightly, money released its charm unscrupulously, and they enjoyed it to their heart's content.Occasional indulgence can make one forget everything, at least at this moment, his nerves are completely relieved.
