Chapter 274: You must have a status
Zhou Weiguo thought to himself, can I still eat? In my current mood, asking me to eat breakfast is overestimating your father's tolerance; I'm so angry I'm about to go to the hospital.
But he didn't overly blame Zhou Ruohan. After all, his daughter had grown up and would sooner or later belong to someone else's family. These things, to put it bluntly, were things that had to be experienced; it would be like this sooner or later.
He simply said, "I have some other things to prepare, so I won't eat. I'll just eat a few bites on the plane later."
By comparison, Qiao Yindi was more open-minded. "Eat quickly, your father definitely won't eat for a while. You two eat a little quickly, and I'll pack your father's portion for him to eat on the road."
"Give Su Yang a reminder later, tell him to be careful when talking to your father. Your father's mood isn't too good today."
Zhou Ruohan said while drinking milk, "What mood does he have that isn't good? Even if his mood isn't good, he has to adjust his emotions. Otherwise, if he goes to Jingcheng to see the old leader with a long face, it would be strange if they didn't kick him out."
"Besides, he can't vent his bad mood on Su Yang."
"Did Su Yang ruin something or provoke him?"
"And this time Su Yang is going to Jingcheng with him to help him, not the other way around. We haven't even left yet and he's already acting up."
Her crooked logic choked Qiao Yindi to the point where she had nothing to say. She simply said, "Fine, fine, say whatever you want. Anyway, I've reminded you. If you don't give Su Yang a vaccination, then so be it. Anyway, I'm not the one getting scolded in the end, I don't care."
Zhou Ruohan then muttered, "Whatever, anyway, I'm not the one getting scolded."
The two were talking when Su Yang came down. Zhou Ruohan glanced at Su Yang without speaking, just focusing on eating her own food, looking a bit like she was still sulking.
Qiao Yindi said, "Little Su, you're awake? Eat quickly, eat quickly, or you might not make the flight later."
Su Yang said, "Okay, Auntie, okay, okay. I originally wanted to get up earlier, but I haven't slept well in the hospital recently, and I only slept soundly last night, so I accidentally overslept."
But he thought to himself, what a joke? Even if we are late, shouldn't the plane wait a few minutes? Of course, he wasn't being pretentious; he was speaking based on facts.
Let alone an Executive Vice Governor of a province, even if a mayor or a Municipal Party Committee Secretary of a prefecture-level city goes out, if they are delayed by various things, they will notify the airport to make the flight wait.
Qiao Yindi said, "I know, I know. I know you young people are all like this, eat quickly. But sometimes you should still pay attention."
Su Yang agreed with "uh-huh," while looking at the milk and freshly fried dough sticks, ready to start, completely unaware of the severity of the problem.
At this time, Zhou Weiguo had already come down from upstairs. He didn't even look at Su Yang and said directly, "Let's go!"
Su Yang let out an "oh," hurriedly put down the chopsticks he had already picked up, and trotted to follow. He took the briefcase from Zhou Weiguo's hand and played the role of a secretary; he had at least that much awareness.
Zhou Weiguo didn't refuse either. Anyway, he wasn't bringing a secretary on this trip to Jingcheng. Some work had to be done by Su Yang.
When they reached the entrance of the building, the Gan A00004 Audi A6L was already waiting. The driver saw Zhou Weiguo come out and opened the rear right door.
Zhou Weiguo ducked in. Su Yang was just about to sit in the front passenger seat when he saw the driver hand the keys to Su Yang and say, "Mayor Su, I'll trouble you."
My goodness, Su Yang thought to himself, they didn't tell me I had to drive before. So now I'm doing the work of both the secretary and the driver?
Letting me go to see the old leader, making me do manual labor, and not giving me food to eat; this is really not treating me like a human being.
Of course, he just thought about it, then nodded and said, "Don't worry, I drive very steadily," and then opened the door and sat in.
Just as he started the car, Zhou Ruohan came out. She knocked on the window, Su Yang slowly rolled it down, and heard Zhou Ruohan say, "Drive slowly on the road, pay attention to safety."
While speaking, she handed the packed buns and milk to Su Yang. "Eat a little when you get to the airport, don't go on an empty stomach early in the morning."
Then she didn't forget to say to the back seat to Old Zhou, "Dad, don't go around venting your anger everywhere. Anyway, we didn't provoke you."
It would have been fine if she hadn't said anything, but as soon as she did, Zhou Weiguo was furious. He thought, I didn't eat breakfast either, and I didn't see you bring any for me, and you didn't wish me a safe journey or anything, and as soon as you come up you arrange this for me?
But he couldn't refuse his daughter's face, so he just let out an "um."
Then a cold gaze shot directly at the back of Su Yang's head. Su Yang couldn't help but shiver.
Then he silently started the car. It must be said, driving the Executive Vice Governor's official car is comfortable; he even suspected that the leaders' cars had been specially modified.
Leaving the Provincial Committee family compound, they drove directly onto the highway. The distance from the Ganzhou provincial capital to the airport was a full 70 kilometers, so it would take at least an hour.
Along the way, he glanced through the rearview mirror several times, thinking Zhou Weiguo should take this time to nap for a while. In his memory, leaders were all like this; most would rest for a while in the car.
But every time he peeked, he found Zhou Weiguo looking at them with a cold expression. He didn't understand, I'm doing fine, what is this for?
He reviewed everything from yesterday afternoon to today, and it seemed he hadn't done anything wrong. Wasn't it just provoking Zhou Ruohan on the road? Hadn't the atmosphere already eased up during the meal? And Old Zhou had accepted his toast, and in the end, he drank until the very end and even clinked glasses with him several times.
They say a woman's face changes as soon as it's said, but can a leader's face be so fickle? At this level, that shouldn't be.
He thought to himself, and his foot pressed down a few more times, speeding up to the airport.
At this time, Qiao Yindi was lecturing Zhou Ruohan. "I said, what's wrong with you? Your father didn't eat breakfast either. I told you to give the breakfast to your father. Little Su is driving, how does he have time to eat? Let your father eat a little on the road, it's better than eating airplane food on the plane."
Zhou Ruohan pouted and said, "What kind of breakfast can he eat with that long face? And he's a leader, when can't he eat? If someone like Su Yang, who does manual labor, doesn't hurry up and eat, I'm afraid he won't even have free time to manage himself when he gets to Jingcheng."
"You really are your father's broken little cotton-padded jacket. What do you plan to do about you and Su Yang? If it goes on like this, it won't do; you must have a status."
"And I think Su Yang, this young man, is generally quite good. Regardless of the result of this trip to Jingcheng, what about your affairs? You can't just delay it like this."
Zhou Ruohan was completely stunned. "Mom, what are you talking about, what status, what is unclear?" ===== CHAPTER 275 =====
