Chapter 561: Vice Provincial Governor Lin

~11 min read 2,158 words

There were only her and Provincial Governor Lin in Lin Xiaoxi's house, which surprised me a little.

A Vice Provincial Governor was usually surrounded by people, and even at home, there were people standing guard in front of and behind the house. But I didn't find any abnormality all the way in.

Provincial Governor Lin must have come alone. I secretly speculated in my heart.

Lin Xiaoxi's house was very large, a duplex.

The decoration in the house looked like it had been a long time ago, and even the ceiling could see a little bit of white exposed on the roof.

Lin Xiaoxi saw me looking at the house and smiled lightly: "This house was bought by my dad for me when I was in high school."

I said oh and asked: "It should be very old, right?"

Lin Xiaoxi looked at me meaningfully and said: "It's very old."

I tasted the meaning in her words, smiled falsely and asked: "Just you alone?"

"My dad is in the study." Lin Xiaoxi pointed to the sofa and let me sit, poured me a cup of tea and said: "You wait, I'll go call him."

I waved my hand and said: "No need, I'll wait."

Lin Xiaoxi smiled lightly and sat opposite me.

The two of them looked at each other, but couldn't find a topic. So they smiled at each other awkwardly, and almost said in unison: "Are you okay?"

As soon as the words came out, she covered her mouth and laughed, signaling me to drink tea, saying: "It's cold, warm your body."

I picked up the teacup, first smelled a refreshing fragrance, so I praised: "Good tea!"

Actually, I don't understand tea, I'm used to drinking like a cow.

I like to soak tea in boiling water, and I'm not in a hurry to drink it. I must wait until the tea is completely cooled before picking up the cup and drinking it in one gulp. Therefore, the taste of any good tea is the same in my mouth.

This habit of mine was once laughed at by Chen Meng, saying that I would never get rid of the habits of a farmer. But my wife Huang Weiwei never disliked me, but thought that this habit of mine truly embodied the true colors of the working people.

My sudden praise of tea made Lin Xiaoxi a little surprised.

She was one of the women who understood me, and my habits were never hidden in front of them.

"You don't look at what's soaked inside." She covered her mouth and laughed.

"What?" I picked up the cup, put it under my eyelids and looked carefully, and found that besides a few tea leaves in the teacup, there was also something like grass or insect.

"Cordyceps sinensis." She said lightly: "My dad brought it, saying this thing is very nourishing."

"I don't need to nourish anything." I blurted out.

Lin Xiaoxi glared at me and said: "It didn't nourish you."

Saying that, she wanted to grab the teacup from my hand and scolded: "I'll pour it out, lest the wolf-hearted and dog-lunged thing doesn't know what's good."

I avoided her hand, turned the teacup behind me and said: "Don't move, if you move and the water spills, it will burn you."

"You would worry about burning me?" She looked at me resentfully, making my heart feel hairy.

I nodded vigorously, looking incomparably serious.

Her eyes blinked, and her eye sockets turned red, saying in a low voice: "The heart has long been burned to death, so why be afraid of the body being burned."

I didn't dare to answer her words, dodging her, not even daring to look at her.

A series of footsteps sounded upstairs, and the two of us quickly sat upright. After a while, Vice Provincial Governor Lin appeared, laughing and saying: "Little Chen is here."

I stood up and stood at attention, respectfully saying: "Hello, leader."

Vice Provincial Governor Lin waved his hand and said: "Sit, sit, sit down and talk."

In front of a big leader, people have a natural sense of restraint. I am no exception. Although people are sitting, their butts don't dare to sit down. As if there was a spring under the butt, ready to stand up at any time.

Lin Xiaoxi also poured a cup of tea for her dad, sat aside, looked at us quietly, without saying a word.

Vice Provincial Governor Lin took a small sip and asked me: "Is home okay?"

I quickly answered: "Good."

"Is your father-in-law's health okay?"

My head was stunned, Vice Provincial Governor Lin asked about my father-in-law, what was their relationship?

Vice Provincial Governor Lin smiled and said: "Young man, you must care more about the health of the elderly! We old people, one day less than one day. If you don't pay attention to your health, you will collapse. Once you collapse, it's impossible to return to the original."

His words contained the meaning of blaming me. I thought in my heart, it's not that I don't care about him, it's because I'm training in the province, and I can't care even if I want to.

"I am an old friend of your dad." Vice Provincial Governor Lin smiled and said kindly: "Watching you grow up."

My heart was awkward. Who are you watching grow up? Lin Xiaoxi, Huang Weiwei, or me?

He divorced her mother when Lin Xiaoxi was ten years old and married a woman twenty years younger than him. Lin Xiaoxi grew up with her mother, he wouldn't watch her grow up.

As for Huang Weiwei, I had never heard her talk about Vice Provincial Governor Lin. That is to say, whether Vice Provincial Governor Lin was an old friend of her dad, I estimated she didn't know either.

And me, I couldn't reach him with eight poles, so how could he watch me grow up?

Vice Provincial Governor Lin tapped his thigh with one hand, as if he were listening to a piece of music, his expression looking very intoxicated.

I couldn't find anything to say, and I was as uncomfortable as sitting on pins and needles.

Vice Provincial Governor Lin suddenly stopped his hand, his eyes covered me, and said: "Little Chen, there is a problem, you analyze it."

I was flattered and arched my waist and said: "Leader, please instruct."

Vice Provincial Governor Lin waved his hand and said: "Don't be so nervous, relax."

I smiled weakly, sitting in front of a big leader, just like sitting in front of a big tiger. Not only nervous and afraid, but also stimulating and difficult to endure.

"You handled a case when you were in Chunshan County, do you remember?" His eyes were like cold light, covering me tightly.

I was almost suffocated when I heard this. Vice Provincial Governor Lin suddenly asked me this question for no reason, what was the deep meaning behind it?

"Leader, the case has been closed." I answered honestly.

"Yes, I also heard that it was closed, and some police comrades were commended." Vice Provincial Governor Lin said calmly: "Such a case, the evidence is conclusive, the facts are there, the evidence chain is complete, it's an iron case."

I nodded vigorously and said: "Exactly, exactly."

"But now some people are afraid that the world will not be chaotic!" Vice Provincial Governor Lin sighed for a long time and said: "Little Chen, if this cold rice is fried again, it will not only waste firewood, but also make the police comrades below suffer grievances."

"Can't fry." I said earnestly: "Whoever fries is responsible."

"I think, the organization's decision is authoritative, and it can't be changed if you want to. Even if there are some flaws, as long as it is harmless, it can be passed." Vice Provincial Governor Lin picked up the teacup and said: "Come, come, drink tea."

I picked up the teacup with both hands, glanced at the Cordyceps sinensis soaked in the water, and looked at Lin Xiaoxi with the corner of my eye, thinking in my heart, Lin Xiaoxi, what good is it for you to nourish my body?

"Now someone wants to overturn the case, it's not a simple problem, there must be someone operating behind this, someone instructing." Vice Provincial Governor Lin suddenly said this sentence, his eyes covered me again and said: "Such an iron case wants to be overturned, where is the principle? This is a conspiracy, an unspeakable conspiracy."

Vice Provincial Governor Lin was clearly a bit excited, his voice was not only much higher, but his face also showed indignation.

I nodded repeatedly and said: "Leader, such a conspiracy should be cracked down on."

"Good!" Vice Provincial Governor Lin patted the armrest of the sofa and said: "Little Chen, I see you as upright. Not only do you have political principles, but your personal awareness is also very high. You are a rare good seedling!"

I was so flattered by his praise that I felt comfortable in my heart, almost floating like a fairy.

"Your training is over this time, do you have any ideas?" Vice Provincial Governor Lin asked me.

My heart skipped a beat. It was impossible for him not to know that I came to the province for training, but half a year had passed, and we had no contact, and even Lin Xiaoxi and I hadn't made a phone call.

I shook my head and said: "I don't have any ideas personally, everything is waiting for the organization's arrangement."

"Good!" He patted the armrest of the sofa again, leaned closer and asked me: "Do you want to work in the Provincial Public Security Department?"

I hesitated and said: "My major is not right, leader."

Vice Provincial Governor Lin laughed: "How many majors are right in this society? As long as it is to serve the people, every front is the same."

I said earnestly: "Leader, you criticized correctly. Although it is not a professional background, everything can be learned, as long as you learn with heart, there is nothing you can't learn."

"So, are you willing to come to the Public Security Department?" He looked at me with a half-smile.

"Leader, I listen to the organization's arrangement."

I said this without any confidence in my heart.

I had long known that all the classmates in the training class except me had walked the night road, and all were looking for their new families. Only me, purely waiting for the organization's arrangement. The result was that Provincial Governor Chen brought people to the Party School to select people, and no unit contacted me.

My idea was too simple. If the organization didn't arrange it, I would return to Chunshan County and continue to be my Executive Deputy County Magistrate. But when I went back for research last time, I already knew that my position had been replaced.

I thought again, at worst I would return to Suxi Town. But if I went back, where would Yue Bai go?

"Little Chen, if you agree to come to the Public Security Department, I will arrange for someone to handle the procedures for you. Of course, you have the right to choose, it doesn't matter if you don't come, maybe other places need you more."

My heart was bitter! Did Vice Provincial Governor Lin know about my situation at the Provincial Party School? Others had intended families, and I was like an abandoned child, ignored by no one.

Now he gave me a family, if I refused again, maybe I would really become an abandoned child.

"I am willing!" I said sincerely.

"Good!" Vice Provincial Governor Lin reached out to me, and I quickly held his hand with both hands.

"Thank you, leader!" I thanked him incomparably sincerely.

"No need to be polite, I am solving a problem for Old Huang, and also finding an excellent successor for myself." Vice Provincial Governor Lin laughed loudly, patted the back of my hand and said: "Little Chen, Old Huang didn't look at you wrong, and I didn't look at you wrong either."

I laughed foolishly, but my heart was not a taste.

Did I become his successor? Did he have words in his words, wanting to cultivate me?

I became his successor, how to get along with Lin Xiaoxi in the future?

One problem after another swirled in my mind, making me confused for a while.

"Now I will give you a piece of information first, take it back and study it carefully, and after the transfer procedures are handled after the New Year, after you are officially on the job, you come to be responsible for handling these things." Vice Provincial Governor Lin stood up, walked to the side, took out a piece of information from his bag and handed it to me.

I lowered my head and glanced at the title, and was immediately dumbfounded. ===== CHAPTER 562 =====
