Dong Wenxue looked out the window, smoked a cigarette, and said, "Who knew that Weimin, who had sworn oaths to Mr. Wang, would run home to find his parents to arrange a position as soon as he went out the door? He was transferred to the south overnight, which made Mr. Wang so angry that he was hospitalized. Later, when that wind passed, Wei Jiang, which is Weimin's father, now working in the department, brought four boxes of gifts to apologize, but was slapped by Mr. Wang and kicked out."

Li Xuewu understood a little why Chief of Staff Gu said not to look for children of high-ranking cadres. These children in the courtyard couldn't tolerate a single failure.

Sighing slightly, Dong Wenxue said again, "People in the courtyard actually know about this matter. No one talks about it, but for the sake of his future, Weimin insisted that it was Mr. Wang who kicked him out, for the sake of promoting relatives, because later Mr. Wang's nephew couldn't stand it and accompanied him to the border."

"Hehe."

This kind of person is the most unwelcome in the army. Li Xuewu also sneered. Like parents, like children.

Dong Wenxue tapped the documents and said, "The courtyard all gave face to the old man of the Wei family and Wei Jiang, so no one went to be fussy about this matter. Weimin also mixed into a combat hero in the south and was very sought after by the girls in the courtyard. Gu Ning was one of them."

Li Xuewu asked, "Didn't anyone in the Gu family tell Gu Ning about this?"

Dong Wenxue said, "At that time, Gu Ning already had a rebellious tendency. The environment was like that. Which child hasn't been confused? The old chief's family style is very strict and doesn't allow such words to be spread, so Gu Ning didn't know. Later, Sister Ding told her, but she thought the old chief deliberately broke them up. Besides, Mr. Wang didn't mention the things of that year anymore. No one was the person involved, so it's unclear who was right and who was wrong."

"The Point Guard is Here"

Since there was this condition today, he might as well clarify the matter. Li Xuewu thought for a while and asked, "What was the state of Gu Ning and Weimin at that time, and what is the state now? I saw Gu Ning and Weimin eating at a table that night."

Dong Wenxue looked at Li Xuewu and said, "What are you thinking about? Do you think the children in the small courtyard are like those in the big courtyard? Before Gu Ning went to work, she was always accompanied by two bodyguards. The old chief loves this daughter the most. If Weimin dares to reach out, I'm not talking about the bright ones, the dark bodyguards dare to shoot directly. This is an order personally issued by the old chief. I heard it with my own ears."

Li Xuewu knew about some things hanging in the bodyguard regiment.

Dong Wenxue continued, "Just like I said, it's nothing more than writing letters, children in the courtyard gathering together to chat. At that time, Weimin had many pursuers. Perhaps they valued the old chief's power and flattered Gu Ning."

Li Xuewu said frankly, "I just heard you say it and asked casually. As long as you don't hurt the relationship between you and their family, I don't care. If the heart is not together, don't stir the spoon in one pot. It's too tiring."

Dong Wenxue lit another cigarette, pondered for a long time, and asked, "Do you have any opinions on the blind date that your teacher and teacher's wife arranged for you?"

Li Xuewu said frankly, "Teacher, you might not know that because of the things in the south, we had a conflict. She seems to have been punished. She won't fall in love with me, and I don't like her."

Dong Wenxue nodded and said, "It's my assumption. Xuewu, do you know why I insisted on introducing you to Gu Ning?"

Li Xuewu shook his head and said, "I don't know. I've been thinking about it for several days and can't figure it out."

Dong Wenxue laughed, "First, I think you need their family background. You are a talent that can be molded. It's impossible to be a security cadre in the steel mill for a lifetime. Gu Ning can let you struggle 30 years less. The old chief doesn't allow his son to use the Gu family's resources, but he told me on the day you were scheduled to meet that he would definitely take care of his daughter."

Seeing Li Xuewu thoughtful, he continued, "Second, your teacher's wife and I need you to grow up as soon as possible. Mengyuan is too young. By the time he needs us, we might already be old and unable to help. You are the future I invested in."

Li Xuewu didn't expect his teacher to speak so bluntly and said movingly, "Even without this help, Xuewu will definitely not live up to the teacher's expectations."

Dong Wenxue waved his hand and continued, "Third, our family and the Gu family have deep origins. My father and the old chief have deep friendship, and I grew up supported by the old chief following my mother."

Li Xuewu saw Dong Wenxue's words were a little choked, and his expression moved slightly, perhaps thinking of the difficulties of his childhood.

Dong Wenxue looked at Li Xuewu and said, "I watched Gu Ning grow up. She is like my younger sister, so I hope she can find a reliable person. This is also the reason why I recommended you to the old chief."

Li Xuewu's heart was also very restless now. He didn't expect that a chance encounter would produce so many problems.

Dong Wenxue showed an indifferent smile and said, "I'll answer your previous question now. Since the old chief knew that Gu Ning had a tendency to fall in love with Weimin, the old chief had a talk with Gu Ning, and then it was broken off. I believe the old chief won't lie to me, let alone you, so you can rest assured."

Dong Wenxue saw Li Xuewu in deep thought, took a puff of his cigarette, and said, "Human hearts are made of flesh. Gu Ning will be 23 years old this Chinese New Year. For three years, Weimin has been contacting Gu Ning in one direction. I can't guarantee where Gu Ning's heart is, but isn't this the time for you to show your masculine charm? Will a person who isn't even afraid of shells be afraid of a deserter?"

Li Xuewu didn't know whether he should contact Gu Ning. His teacher was very good to him, and Gu Ning's father and mother did even more.

Li Xuewu felt that he should do something for his teacher.

Dong Wenxue showed an indifferent smile and said, "She is a dedicated girl, otherwise she wouldn't have been without feelings for more than three years. She also has some interest in you, otherwise she wouldn't have chosen to meet you. If she wanted to break herself, she could have completely chosen a comfortable family to marry. Why bother to have a blind date with you, an 'enemy'?"

Li Xuewu nodded in agreement.

Fate is an unknown quantity. After a period of cooling, both sides might forget.

Dong Wenxue handed the documents to Li Xuewu and said, "Don't add to the security of the street. If you receive a demand application, we'll talk about it. Each group should be equipped with a Type 56 assault rifle and 20 rounds of ammunition when on duty, but it must be kept well. Be vigilant. These things have to be held accountable if they leave the factory."

Li Xuewu nodded, understood Dong Wenxue's meaning, and stopped talking about this topic, but chatted about other topics.

Seeing the factory secretary come to deliver documents again, Li Xuewu stood up, greeted him, and went out.

The factory secretary saw Li Xuewu leaving with two packs of Zhonghua cigarettes and was very envious. It was the first time he had seen a subordinate asking a leader for cigarettes.

Returning to the office, he unpacked one pack of cigarettes and threw it into the space, sat alone behind the desk, and continued to write materials.
