Big man

"Xiao Fan is here? Come, come quickly..."

Seeing Xiao Fan, Fang Li smiled all over his face and waved to Xiao Fan with a warm and familiar look.

"Hello, Uncle Fang."

Xiao Fan strode over and bowed slightly to Fang Li.

"Haha, Xiao Fan, this is Secretary Huang. Secretary Huang, this is the Xiao Fan I told you about, the eldest son of Minister Xiao."

Xiao Fan turned to Huang Dapeng again, and said respectfully, "Secretary Huang, hello."

Huang Dapeng looked Xiao Fan up and down a few times, then slowly got up, stretched out his hand to Xiao Fan, and said with a smile: "Director Xiao, how are you?"

Huang Dapeng's palm has big bones and is very warm, but the handshake is a little weak, and when he speaks, he also seems to be panting, as if he lacks the breath and the airway is not so smooth.

"Secretary Huang, please call me by my name."

Xiao Fan was polite, he flicked his fingers, and felt Huang Dapeng's pulse naturally, the corners of his eyes twitched slightly.

"Haha, okay, come on, please sit down please sit down!"

Huang Dapeng said with a smile.

After exchanging greetings, Xiao Fan sat down next to Fang Yumei, the little girl smiled sweetly, two clusters of pink appeared on her little face, and she lightly bit her crystal red lips.

"Director Xiao, is the old man in good health?"

As soon as Xiao Fan took his seat, Huang Dapeng immediately asked.

It's a normal greeting for ordinary people.But at this level, such a topic is quite sensitive, not to mention that the old man suffered a serious illness last year and almost failed to come back from the hospital.The fate of the old man is directly related to the stability of the high-level political situation.

But it seems that Huang Dapeng looks calm.He is an old-fashioned character, and he doesn't care much about these taboos.

Xiao Fan hurriedly bowed his body, and replied respectfully: "Thank you, Secretary Huang, for your concern. Grandpa is in good health."

"That's good, that's good, the old man is in good health, it's a great thing, the mainstay..."

Huang Dapeng admired it again, and then chatted with Xiao Fan about the homework, Fang Li interrupted from time to time, and the atmosphere in the box was very harmonious.

Fang Yumei couldn't sit still anymore.

When Xiao Fan didn't come, the little girl still tried her best to pretend to be a very lady. Now that Xiao Fan appeared and sat beside her, the little girl's heart was beating wildly, but how could she still be quiet? Pretending to be a lady?It's just that in front of Huang Dapeng, I didn't dare to hold Xiao Fan's hand quietly under the table, so I had to take out my mobile phone, lower my head and look down, and play small games under the table, not daring to turn on the voice, making Miss Fang feel depressed. .

Even so, Fang Li gave him a hard look.

The little girl refused immediately, raised her head, and asked, "Uncle Huang, are there any guests coming?"

It doesn't matter that Xiao Fan has already arrived, why haven't your wife and that secretary returned to the box?Let's have dinner early, finish eating early, and go back to our respective houses. What's the fun in sitting here?

Huang Dapeng said with a smile: "Yes, I have made an appointment with two guests."

"Really? Who is it, why haven't you arrived yet?"

Fang Youmei curled her lips.

These two guests are really smart, the Deputy Secretary of the Yanbei Provincial Party Committee and the Secretary of the Provincial Political and Legal Committee are waiting here, even the youngest of the Xiao family has already arrived, and you have not been seen for a long time, this is a bit big.

"Haha, it's almost here..." Huang Dapeng raised his wrist and looked at his watch, and said with a smile: "Xiaomei, are you hungry? If you are hungry, then eat first."

It looks very doting.

Fang Youmei shook her head and said, "It's okay, I'm not hungry, so I just want to ask, what kind of guest is it and does it live far away?"

"Xiaomei, are you in a hurry?"

At this moment, an elegant voice sounded outside the door.

Upon hearing this voice, both Huang Dapeng and Fang Li stood up.The obvious one is really a big shot, even Huang Dapeng and Fang Li are unwilling to be rude.

"Aunt Xue?"

A look of surprise flashed across Fang Youmei's face, she stood up and glanced at Xiao Fan.

Xiao Fan smiled and nodded, indicating that he already knew which Aunt Xue was the visitor.

The door of the private room was pushed open immediately, and the well-dressed director Zhou personally walked in with a middle-aged woman in her forties, with a smile on her face as if to invite her.

This middle-aged woman's appearance is not so beautiful, she is at most above average level, her key temperament is elegant and outstanding, and the well-fitting Chanel casual clothes set off this elegant temperament even more.

It was rumored that Dong Tianlei's college classmate back then, Xue Lan, a second-generation child of the Xue family.

The young man who followed Xue Lan was no stranger to Xiao Fan. He was his alumni, Wang Shudu's best buddy, Xue Tao who worked in the China Securities Regulatory Commission.In Wang Shudu's small circle, Xue Tao is a well-known "dog-headed military adviser".Unexpectedly, Xue Tao came to Iron Gate with his aunt Xue Lan.It seems that what happened this time really shocked everyone.

The eldest grandson of the Xiao family suddenly appeared at the iron gate and intervened in Yanbei's "internal affairs", which was really enough to attract the attention of all parties.In the political game, a behemoth like the old Xiao family is a decisive weight no matter which side it leans towards.

It is reasonable for Xue Lan to go to Yanbei in person and bring his nephew who is known as the "Military Adviser" with him.

On the surface they were invited.

The invitation from the third leader of the Yanbei Provincial Party Committee is still very important.

As for Huang Dapeng's reasons, the original "Three Kingdoms melee" has become a "war against the Quartet", and the old Xiao family accidentally intervened. He does not want to face the combination of the Xiao family and the Fang family alone, so Xue Lan must be invited. , Let’s meet each other and know each other well.

How to deal with this relationship in the future, how to play the game, you have to think carefully about it.

Of course, Xue Lan could also refuse Huang Dapeng's invitation, using an excuse to shirk it, but in that case, Huang Dapeng felt that it would be difficult to resist the Xiao family and the Fang family's cooperation, and perhaps reaching a compromise with Fang Li on this matter may be a big possibility.With Dong Tianlei already arrested by the public security organs, such a situation is really not what the Xue family wants to see.

In case Dong Tianlei is "ignorant" and stalks and bites in the chant, the old Xue's family is likely to be involved.Although this possibility is very low, it has to be guarded against.Even if ordinary people hold some of Dong Tianlei's confessions in their hands, they have nothing to do with the Xue family. The Xiao family's Fang family is different, it is a powerful force that can pose a major threat to the Xue family.

Most importantly, why did the Xiao family suddenly infiltrate into Yanbei and support Fang Li openly?

This issue must be clarified.

Maybe, this is an important layout of the Xiao family, and Mr. Xiao suddenly became very active during this period of time, which made all major forces be very cautious.

There are eight people in this box, people from all directions, except for Fang Youmei who is young and ignorant, all of them have their own plans.

"Director Xue, hello, hello!"

Huang Dapeng stepped forward and shook hands with Xue Lan.

Xue Lan's position is not too high, a bureau-level cadre, but in recent years, Xue Lan's performance has been relatively eye-catching, and she often "speaks" on behalf of the old Xue family, so her position is very important.Fang Li and Huang Dapeng "talked about friends of the same generation" with her, and it was not too polite to stand up to greet her.

In front of Huang Dapeng and Fang Li, Xue Lan was even more polite.

When it was Fang Yumei's turn, Xue Lan's eyes lit up, and she tsk-tsk praised: "Oh, this is Xiaomei? I haven't seen you in a few years. She's so tall, a big girl, and so pretty, tsk-tsk... she's so pretty. ..."

As he said that, he took Fang Yumei's little hand and patted it, his face was full of surprise.

To say that the little girl is indeed good-looking, tall and slender, with exquisite and beautiful features, especially a pair of big eyes, like crystal grapes, watery and agile, worthy of Xue Lan's praise.

After all, it was the child's surname, and Fang Yumei blushed with excitement when she was praised.

"Hello, Aunt Xue."

Xiao Fan smiled and greeted at the side.

Xue Lan's nephew, Xue Tao, is an alumnus of him, so the name "auntie" is very easy to pronounce.

"This is...ah, Xiao Fan?"

Xue Lan looked full of surprise, and quickly let go of Fang Yumei's little hand, and shook hands with Xiao Fan, looking up and down, as if she didn't know that she would meet Xiao Fan here before.

Fang Yumei, who was originally very grateful for Xue Lan, suddenly seemed to have poured cold water on her head, and her enthusiasm immediately faded, and she pouted secretly.

What are you wearing?

Wasn't it because Xiao Fan arrived at the iron gate that you would rush over here in a hurry?

Speaking of which, the little girl really "wronged" Xue Lan a bit.Although Xue Lan came here for Xiao Fan, he didn't know that Huang Dapeng arranged for everyone to have dinner together.

It seems that Secretary Huang is going to cut through the mess quickly to see the truth, whether it is a friend or an enemy, everyone should be clear, don't play tricks!

This is more in line with Huang Dapeng's personality. To put it nicely, it is more straightforward; if the evaluation is lower, it is not so calm.

"Xiao Fan, when did you come to Iron Gate?"

Xue Lan didn't care about Fang Youmei's change of mind at all, so she pretended to be the last one and asked seriously.

Xiao Fan smiled slightly, and said, "Aunt Xue, I arrived yesterday. Some gangsters in the society of Tiemen, a little ignorant, actually snatched Xiaomei's bag at the train station. I will come here to deal with this matter."

"Is there such a thing?"

Xue Lan was very surprised, her eyes widened.

Without waiting for Xiao Fan's answer, Fang Youmei immediately said from the side: "Yes, Aunt Xue, those bastards are too shameful... But brother Xiao Fan cleaned them up, it's very satisfying."

The little girl looked at Xue Lan with eyes full of guard.

Isn't this too vain?

"Really? Then... Xiaomei, are you okay?"

"I'm fine. Brother Xiao Fan is responsible for everything. What can I do?"

"That's fine, that's fine..."

Xue Lan smiled all over her face, but narrowed her eyes slightly, flashing a flash of deep depression.

"Senior."

When it was his turn to greet Xue Tao, Xiao Fan followed the rules.

"Haha, Xiao Fan, hello, hello!"

Xue Tao stretched out his hand to reach out to Xiao Fan, his eyes swept across Fang Youmei's face, and there was a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Xiao Fan, I never expected that you and Xiaomei are good friends."

This is not a good thing to say.

Student Xiao Fan, do you still have this habit of abducting little girls?

I admire you!

Fang Youmei raised her beautiful eyebrows suddenly, and was about to speak, but was blocked by Xiao Fan's indifferent eyes.A long time ago, when everyone was still in No. [-] Middle School, Xue Tao had such a temper, eccentric, self-righteous, and narrow-minded. Xiao Fanya didn't want Fang Yumei to have any confrontation with him.

This person is known as a dog-headed military adviser in the dandy circle. If Fang Yumei offends him, maybe he will have a moth.If it was aimed at Xiao Fan himself, he would not care, but it would not do to trip Fang Yumei.

At that time, I'm afraid Xiao Fan will really tear himself apart from the Xue family. (To be continued.)
