Chapter 433 A Compromise
Leng Yongjun's call completely confused Du Qingyuan because he was a leader, Yu Jun, and he was naturally unfamiliar with Leng Yongjun. However, he and Leng Yongjun did not know each other, and the other party was a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and the commander of the military region. The other party not only helped him, but also proposed to invite him to dinner. This was completely contrary to common sense, which made him rack his brains and puzzled.
"Old Du, you hide so deeply. I didn't expect you to know Commander Leng. I wondered why Xiao Kun suddenly joined the army. It turned out that Commander Leng was helping you behind the scenes." Deputy Mayor Zheng looked at Du Qingyuan put down the phone and stood motionless at the desk. Then he suddenly woke up and stood up from the sofa, complaining about Du Qingyuan dissatisfiedly.
Du Qingyuan woke up after hearing Vice Mayor Zheng’s complaints. He heard Vice Mayor Zheng’s complaints. He really didn’t know how to answer Deputy Mayor Zheng’s words. He could only answer vaguely: “Old Zhao, Lao Zheng is not that I deliberately pretended to be mysterious in front of you, but I really don’t know how to tell you about this matter.
"Okay, since you are not convenient for me to say it, then forget it, but you have made an appointment with us tonight and now you are putting us pigeons on it. Isn't it a bit too much?" Deputy Secretary Zhao heard Du Qingyuan's answer, and did not know how Du Qingyuan really didn't know how to answer. Instead, he felt that Du Qingyuan was inconvenient to say this. He immediately smiled and helped Du Qingyuan to relieve the situation, while looking at Du Qingyuan with a smile on his face.
The reason why Deputy Mayor Zheng deliberately complained about Du Qingyuan was actually because Du Qingyuan had dinner with Leng Yongjun at night. Now when he saw Deputy Secretary Zhao mentioning dinner, he immediately took the opportunity to say to Du Qingyuan: "Old Du Lao Zhao said, you have promised to treat us to dinner in the evening. What do you think should you do?"
Although the two did not say that they wanted to have dinner with him, their intentions were already very obvious. Under normal circumstances, Du Qingyuan would never dare to take the two to the banquet. However, at the Standing Committee today, the two supported him even though they knew that he was likely to lose. If he refused, they would definitely alienate each other's relationship.
Although Du Qingyuan didn't know that Leng Yongjun invited him? But at this time he could only agree: "Although I don't know what Commander Leng is looking for me, since I have agreed to invite you two to dinner in advance, I naturally cannot break the appointment. Since we bumped into each other, Yu Qian would go together."
Du Qingyuan's answer made the two very satisfied, but they were also leaders Yu's troops. They knew that they were not suitable for the meal today. At this time, Deputy Secretary Zhao laughed first and said to Du Qingyuan: "Old Du, we are talking to you. It is definitely important for leaders like Commander Leng to look for you. At this time, our appearance may make Commander Leng unhappy. It is better to postpone the meal you owe us until tomorrow night, but you have to contribute a bottle of wine at home."
Du Qingyuan was very grateful when he heard Deputy Secretary Zhao's words. After all, Leng Yongjun's identity was placed. Although they also had backers behind them, none of Yumen would dislike the fact that he knew many members of the Standing Committee. However, the more this happened, the more guilty Du Qingyuan felt. After thinking for a while, he said to Deputy Secretary Zhao and Deputy Mayor Zheng: "Old Zhao, Old Zheng, do you think this is OK? I will book two private rooms at the Phoenix Hotel in the evening. At that time, you will also bring your family with me. I will let Shuqin accompany you on behalf of me. I will see if it is appropriate. Then the two private rooms will be merged into one private room. If it is not suitable, I will send Commander Leng away and come to have dinner with you."
When Deputy Secretary Zhao heard Du Qingyuan's words, he felt that Du Qingyuan's method was not a good compromise. He subconsciously nodded and agreed: "Old Du is treating you tonight, so he is the final word of yours, but if not, don't force it. After all, Commander Leng has helped you a lot, and now is an extraordinary period. We can do it whenever we eat together. We can't offend Commander Leng because of us."
In the officialdom, Yu Bu has no real friends at all. Even those so-called allies cannot fully communicate with each other, because you don’t know when your allies will sell you because of conflicts of interests. Therefore, even among allies, sometimes speaking is seventy-sixths of trueness and threety-sixths of falsehood. At this time, Deputy Secretary Zhao’s words made Du Qingyuan grateful from the bottom of his heart, and said to the two with a smile: “Don’t worry, I know it in my heart.”
After hanging up Du Qingyuan's phone call, Leng Yongjun smiled and introduced to Wu Potian and Du Yue, both beside him: "I have made an appointment with Mayor Du. He has booked a place and will call me to notify me. Now I will accompany you to the confinement room to see Du Kun, and then arrange for someone to take him to take a shower, change into a military uniform, and go to dinner with us tonight."
After lunch in the morning, Du Yue wanted to see Du Kun, but because she learned that Su City had convened a standing committee and was worried about her father, she had to give up the idea and waited in the military headquarters for news from Su City. Now that she learned that her father had successfully overcome this disaster, she truly felt relieved and took Tiantian to the confinement room with Wu Potian.
When Wu Potian and Du Yue came to the confinement room, Du Kun was sitting quietly on the bed in the confinement room. Wu Potian walked into the confinement room and asked Du Kun with a serious look on his face: "Du Kun, have you figured it out? Should you continue to stay here? Or go to join the army?"
Although Du Kun is already twenty years old, his mind is not much different from that of a teenage child because of his parents' care. However, after careful consideration last night, he could say that he matured overnight. When he faced Wu Potian's inquiry, he replied without thinking: "I have decided that I will join the army and then pursue Ye Mei with dignity."
When Wu Potian heard Du Kun's answer, he nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "You are not a coward, and I didn't look down on you."
When Du Kun heard Wu Potian's words, he got out of bed and walked to Du Yue, and asked Du Yue with a worried look on his face: "My dad is okay, is it okay? This time the matter is completely a conspiracy. Some people may use my affairs to target my dad."
Seeing that my younger brother became sensible, Du Yue was very happy and said to Du Kun with a smile: "You only knew that someone was going to deal with our father? Because of you, the Standing Committee was attacked by Jiang Guizhong this morning. Fortunately, we came back this time and had successfully helped Dad solve the trouble. But when you get to know each other, I hope you can remember today's lessons丨"
When Du Kun heard Du Yue's introduction, his heart was finally relieved. At this time, his eyes noticed Wu Niantian standing beside Du Yue, and quickly asked Du Yue: "Who is this child, sister? Can't he be my nephew?"
