Xu Tong was full of expectations and finally made it until eleven o'clock in the evening. Then she tiptoed to the basement.
When the silver-gray Audi A4 came into her sight, a childlike smile suddenly broke out on her face, and her excitement was beyond words.
She took the car keys from my hand, and the action was as if she was touching a rare treasure. With a light "click", the car door opened, and she carefully sat in the driver's seat with her round pregnant belly, gently stroking the steering wheel with both hands, sometimes turning left, sometimes turning left, her eyes flashing with obsession, as if the whole world was concentrated in this place, and she was reluctant to leave for a long time.
She gently consoled him, "There is some formaldehyde residue in the interior of a new car, which is not good for the fetus. You like it, but let's go back first. You can slowly like it after the baby is born. Besides, it's not appropriate for you to see it now."
After much persuasion, she reluctantly let go of the steering wheel, and went upstairs with him to go home without looking back.
The moment she stepped into the house, she threw herself into my arms, wrapped her arms tightly around my neck, and rained hot kisses on my cheeks, calling me "husband" in a trembling voice.
He gently touched her waist with his fingertips and whispered, "Shh, don't make too much noise, or you might wake up Sister Hong."
After hearing what he said, she reluctantly let go of his hand, but the excitement in her eyes was still shining.
That night, she tried her best to keep him with all her tenderness, but he finally couldn't resist the warmth and had to stay the night.
That night in bed, she actively showed her affection to him, and every movement she made was a hint that was hard to ignore.
He gently held her hand and stopped her: "You are really crazy. You are almost eight months pregnant now. Don't hurt the baby."
Her face was flushed, her eyes flashing with desire, and she whispered: "I know you have been holding back for so long, and I miss you too. Don't you want me now?"
놖 sighed and said, "Let's hold on a little longer and wait for the baby to be born safely. Then we can do whatever we want."
But she refused to give in, with a hint of pleading in her voice: "No, I asked the doctor, and he said that as long as the posture is correct and it's gentle, there will be no problem."
Staring at her, seeing the flames dancing in her eyes, he felt like he was in a sea of burning fire, and an indescribable heat surged in his dantian...
After the clouds roll and the flowers bloom and fall.
Although this intimate blending did not allow them to completely release their inner desires, this warmth was enough to comfort each other's hearts.
Her face was like a blooming peach, delicate and gentle. She nestled in my chest, while I gently stroked her belly, where they were nurturing their child.
Her words were full of intoxicating sweetness: "When the baby is born, our family will be together and we can live a sweet and happy life. How wonderful it would be."
Her voice is like a spring breeze blowing through my heart, making me fascinated.
I don't deny that at that moment I had a fantasy. Living a comfortable life with her, with a wife and children, and a warm bed, might be... indeed a good choice.
Since the county government moved to the new district, the frequency of visits to the development zone management committee office has increased significantly.
On the one hand, it is because the two places are very close to each other, which facilitates travel; on the other hand, it is because the upgrading of the development zone has entered a critical stage, and we must seize the time to promote progress in this matter.
That day, there was thunder and lightning outside the window and heavy rain. I was sitting alone in the office, concentrating on reviewing documents.
At this moment, Zhang Weiguo knocked on the office door. With a flattering smile on his face, he slowly walked to the seat opposite and sat down.
"County Magistrate Guan," he said, "You need to give us some authorization before we can go to the provincial government."
He frowned slightly, his eyes full of doubt: "Hasn't the management committee decided at the meeting? You are responsible for the upgrading of the development zone."
Hearing this, he chuckled and said, "County Magistrate Guan, there is a popular saying nowadays: Going to a ministry in Beijing to get things done is called 'running to the ministry and making money', and going to a provincial bureau is called 'making a fortune'. Nowadays, how can you get things done without spending some money to build relationships? If you don't give me some financial flexibility, no matter how capable I am, I can't do anything without rice."
놖 naturally understood the subtext of his words, which was to ask for some money to smooth over the relationship.
He thought to himself that the upgrading of this development zone was of vital importance. If he wanted to proceed smoothly, necessary investment might be inevitable, but how to strike a good balance was a question that required careful consideration.
Based on my understanding of Zhang Weiguo, he always likes to smuggle money and use various means to take advantage of the opportunity to enrich himself.
So, he reminded him seriously: "Zhang Ren, the public funds of the Management Committee have always been high. Every year when the budget is prepared, we have to ask the Finance Bureau for help. But the county finances are also stretched and in trouble."
He responded: "I know this. What I mean is whether we can ask the development zone to become an enterprise. After all, upgrading the development zone will benefit everyone."
Wang shook his head firmly and said solemnly, "No, since the establishment of the development zone, we have never levied fees on the settled enterprises. This precedent must not be set. It will not only shake the confidence of investors, but also damage the image of the party and the government. Regarding the funds for the activities in the province, Wang will think of a way again. Don't mention the levy again."
He answered readily, "Okay, I will follow the instructions of County Magistrate Guan." Then, he took out a seemingly ordinary tea box from a pocket he had just brought in and put it on the table: "County Magistrate Guan, this is a box of West Lake Longjing tea from before the Qingming Festival that my friend brought back from Hangzhou. I'll give it to you to taste."
He looked at the box of tea and said with a smile, "Zhang Ren, I appreciate your kindness, but you have to take it back. We cannot violate the rules and accept gifts."
놖 continued to explain: "Besides, 놖's stomach is not very good, and the doctor specifically told 놖 to drink less tea as much as possible."
He seemed to think that he hadn't understood his real intention, and insisted: "County Magistrate Guan, this is not ordinary tea, this has special effects, it can be said to cure all diseases."
As he said this, he pushed the tea box in front of her again with a smile, his eyes full of expectation and suggestion.
He smiled slightly, took the tea box, pretended to look at the decorative pattern on the tea box, but in fact he was feeling its weight, and had some guesses in his mind. Judging from the feel of the money, the amount inside should not be less than 10,000 yuan.
With a playful smile, he said, "Zhang Ren, this box of tea does look substantial. The packaging is low-key but the content is luxurious, so the quality should be guaranteed. It would be disrespectful for me to refuse it, and I would feel unworthy of it. So I will accept it with pleasure?" He deliberately dragged out the last syllable of his words, staring at him sharply, trying to observe the subtle changes in his facial expressions.
When he saw 놖 took the tea box, he was immediately relieved, with a smug smile on his face, as if he was immersed in the joy of a big fish finally taking the bait. He said quickly: "Please take it and taste it slowly. If you like this taste, there are still a lot more."
She smiled secretly but remained calm on the surface, and gently put the tea box aside.
Seeing that Xiao had collected the "tea leaves", he took the opportunity to lead the topic to the real purpose of this trip: "County Magistrate Guan, there are rumors recently that Deputy County Magistrate Liu Xiuwen may have to retire to the second line..."
