Chapter 125 - Ambiguous Business Law
Chapter 125 - Ambiguous Business Law
Since they parted at the small base, Ning Fei and Duan Yunhong have never seen each other again, and they haven't even had much contact.
The only time they contacted each other was when the black SUV that Duan Yunhong bought for Ning Fei arrived at the Tianyue Base. After Ning Fei received the car, he sent him a message: [It's here, thank you. (Attached with photos of the new car)]
Duan Yunhong replied: [You can also tell me what accessories you want to modify. 】
Ning Fei didn't reply to this message.
It’s not that he didn’t modify the car, but he did it himself and didn’t tell Duan Yunhong after he was done. He had no obligation to report, and Duan Yunhong did not send any further messages.
The days passed into winter and New Year's Day passed.
Boom boom!
After the knock, the door opened, Yu Zhou leaned into Ning Fei's office and asked, "Yue Fengping has a last-minute meeting with his comrades, would you like to join us?"
Ning Fei didn't comment, only said: "Why are you asking me? Are you trying to match me up again?"
"In that group of people? If there were, I would have introduced them long ago. Why would I keep them until now? I'm afraid you'll laugh at my taste if I introduce them to you now." Yu Zhouyuan replied as he walked in, "Let's go and have a free meal. If it's interesting, we'll stay. If it's boring, we'll find an excuse to leave. I don't want to be alone in their conversations about the past. Sometimes I can hardly hold back my bored expression and it's very embarrassing."
Ning Fei jokingly said: "Didn't you sacrifice yourself for love? How come you can't even stand a small drinking party."
"I like him, not his comrade. But considering that his comrades constitute a part of his past, I can be patient when necessary." Yu Zhou raised his eyebrows, "Are you going or not? Or do you have other appointments?"
"I've made an appointment, but I haven't agreed yet." Ning Fei said, "Then how about I bring another one?"
"Yue Fengping takes me, I take you, and you take another one, right?" Yu Zhou said happily, "Tell me who it is first."
"Wang Moye."
"Hahahaha..." Yu Zhou laughed even more. "I knew it was that Samoyed! He has been pestering you since Jinghui sent him here. His target is quite obvious. Why, you haven't given him a chance yet?"
"Not my taste."
"Many girls have been talking about how he is young, promising, and handsome, and they are thinking about how to make a move on him. How can you not be interested in him?" Yu Zhou walked to the opposite side of Ning Fei's desk and rested one hand on the table. "Is it not your taste, or are you too weak, or... are you trying to be a virgin?"
"Boring. Who am I supposed to keep my virginity to?"
"For anyone who can afford a million dollars of luck."
"Ha, just one million. Do you think you can buy my happiness with such a small amount of money? Haven't I seen this kind of scene enough before?" Ning Fei sneered, "I am not attracted to that 'Samoyed'. On the one hand, he is too thin and has no meat. His appearance and figure are not what I like. On the other hand... I think he has other purposes in approaching me."
Yu Zhou leaned against the table and said, "'An ulterior motive'? Does that mean he just wanted to tease you for fun in Tianyue and he's not serious?"
"Is this a problem for me?" Ning Fei glanced at him. "I think he wants to find out something from me, but since I always ignore him, he might be trying to trick me with the 'ambiguous relationship'."
Yu Zhou's face became more serious after hearing this: "Investigate? In what direction?"
"It's hard to say. He likes to ask me what I'm busy with recently, but he hasn't asked me in a specific direction yet, maybe because I'm too uncooperative." Ning Fei thought for a while, "In fact, his words are not much different from those of pursuing someone, but I can feel that he has other intentions."
"If you say so, I believe you." Yu Zhou said, "So when he asked you out today, were you planning to accept it?"
"I've rejected him several times. I should give him some sweet treats so that he feels he has an opportunity. Otherwise, he won't be able to show his true colors." Ning Fei replied, "But your plan is better. Although we're having dinner together, there are many people and the distance is not too far. Besides, Yue Fengping and you are here, so Wang Moye shouldn't dare to be too explicit, and it will be easier to deal with him."
"Now that you've said that, what else can I do? I can only agree to help you carry out this plan." Yu Zhou took out his cell phone in front of Ning Fei, ready to call Yue Fengping to ask, "Anyway, if you need anything, just give me a wink and I'll take you away."
Ning Fei reminded: "Tell Yue Fengping something, don't let him be tricked by Samoyed."
"You can rest assured about this. Yue Fengping seems to be very polite to everyone, but in fact, it is difficult to have a deep conversation with people you are not familiar with. All his subordinates are like this. They only talk to you about the cafeteria and irrelevant gossip before they trust you enough. It's quite interesting..." Yu Zhou said as he had already dialed Yue Fengping's number. Yue Fengping answered the phone quickly and finished the call in just a few words.
"He said it's okay to bring him. It's okay. New friends are welcome." Yu Zhou shook his phone. "But he doesn't know the real reason yet. It doesn't matter. I'll tell him in detail when I get home tonight. Ask Samoyed if he wants to go."
"OK." Ning Fei also took out his mobile phone and opened the contact list.
***
That night, Wang Moye indeed showed up at the dinner party with Yue Fengping's comrades.
Unlike the nickname "Samoyed" that Yu Zhouning gave to him privately, Wang Moye himself is actually a gentle, intelligent and sharp person. Yu Zhou called him "an expert in officialdom at first glance." He is tall and fair, wears glasses, and often alternates between two long black or brown coats. He looks low-key but also gives off a sense of "cleanliness". When he speaks, he is serious when he should be serious, and when he smiles, he makes people feel warm and cheerful. It is not surprising that such a man is liked by girls.
Wang Moye was sent by the Jinghui Base to be mainly responsible for the coordination of a cooperation project. He is a short-term expatriate. The person in charge of this project is Yu Zhou, and Wang Moye’s actual contact person is Ning Fei. However, Ning Fei actually did not have a regular position, he was just an external staff member, so in terms of rank, Wang Moye was above him. But Wang Moye, who was aware of this, did not show any leadership or command style when interacting with Ning Fei. He always interacted with everyone on an equal footing, and even took the initiative to make friends. He was quite warm towards Ning Fei, and he euphemistically called it "we hit it off the first time we met." He would even occasionally reveal some ambiguous feelings in private chats between two people. The degree was neither too light nor too severe, enough for Ning Fei to notice, but not unpleasant.
If someone else faced this kind of attack, even if they were not able to accept it so quickly, it would be easy for them to lose their guard. However, Ning Fei sensed something wrong from his friendly attitude.
Ning Fei’s way of dealing with this “wrongness” is not to avoid it, but to turn the tables on it. It just so happens that there are not many insiders in Jinghui, and Wang Moye's position is not low, so he should be able to trick some information about Jinghui out of him. The Jinghui Base has always been the domestic political center. Whatever blows there first will surely blow to bases across the country in the future.
Furthermore, if Jinghui has any "salvation plan", it would be better to know it sooner so that we can cooperate sooner. Ning Fei would rather have Jinghui Base play the role of "savior" than let Huichuan take the limelight.
——The point is not to let someone win so easily.
So, Wang Moye approached him deliberately, and Ning Fei followed his wish to see who could outwit the other.
"What are you staring at?"
Wang Moye turned his head to look at Ning Fei, and found that he looked a little indifferent and unresponsive, so he asked, "Are you drunk?"
"How is that possible?" Ning Fei came back to his senses, "But you, you actually honestly gave me three glasses of wine as punishment upon entering the door, don't you feel upset?"
"Haha, not bad." He raised his eyebrows slightly, then leaned in closer and whispered, "Actually, I took some food before I went out, and I also took hangover pills in advance, just to prevent this. Don't tell them, lest they accuse me of cheating."
Ning Fei looked surprised: "You also brought hangover medicine?"
"I'm used to it because I travel a lot." Wang Moye smiled, "But I only drank because these comrades under Commander Yue were quite interesting and suited my taste. In a normal work bureau, if someone came in and tried to intimidate me like this, I would definitely not finish the drink so honestly."
Ning Feixin thought, you just come up with this kind of words to bring people closer, whoever believes it is an idiot.
But his response was: "As long as you feel happy, I'm afraid you'll feel embarrassed."
"At least I know Commander Yue and Minister Yu, and with you here, it won't be awkward." Wang Moye wanted to pour wine for Ning Fei, but Ning Fei snatched it away and poured it for himself. Wang Moye smiled and didn't argue with him. He just continued to ask in a low voice: "Are these the brothers who went through life and death with Commander Yue in the past?"
"Ah, yeah." Ning Fei knew that he also wanted to get something out of these people, so he only replied with marginal information according to Yu Zhou's instructions. "But now they may not be in the front line. For example, they opened a restaurant, sold breakfast, started a small business, etc."
"Breakfast is good. Breakfast is the most stable and profitable small business now." Wang Moye smiled, "If I don't do my current job, I would also like to sell breakfast."
Ning Fei glanced at him: "So you can cook?"
"To be frank, everyone who has eaten here says it's good. In the past, a colleague even wanted to pay me to be their private chef." Wang Moye clinked glasses with him. "Unfortunately, I'm staying in a guesthouse in Tianyue, so there's no kitchen. How about we have a dinner at your house some other day? I'll cook it myself."
This is an almost explicit hint. Go to the house for dinner, and any adult can guess what will happen next.
To go deeper, cooking and eating together is a very quick way to enhance relationships. Even Duan Yunhong, during the time when he and Ning Fei semi-lived together, never really cooked and ate together.
Although in theory both of them have accumulated a lot of knowledge, cooking should not be a difficult task. But except for the time when Duan Yunhong simply barbecued some meat outside, the two of them really never thought of this idea.
"Forget about coming to my house. It's a mess and it's hard to entertain you." Although Wang Moye's "homely nature" surprised Ning Fei a little, it was far from enough to impress Ning Fei. "Let's just drink outside. You don't have to bother cooking or cleaning up."
Upon hearing this, Wang Moye lowered his eyes to hide his disappointment and clinked glasses with him again: "Okay, let's drink outside..."
The two of them were talking quietly together. On the other side, Yue Fengping also leaned close to Yu Zhou's ear and whispered, "Is there something going on between Ning Fei and that Wang Moye?"
Yu Zhou didn't even bother to take a second look, and just casually replied, "What's it got to do with you, Commander Yue? Why are you meddling in other people's affairs?"
Yue Fengping was getting more and more confused: "But Ning Fei and Duan Yunhong..."
Yu Zhou stepped on his foot under the table.
"Stop meddling in adult matters and just eat your meal and drink your wine!"
