Chapter 192 Beware
A strange yet familiar voice sounded behind them. They turned around and saw a man standing at the door.
The two of them knew the man who was speaking. Wasn't this the Deputy Director Fu Ming who had just arrived today? Ye Qian was a little surprised why he was here. Could he be the guest that Gu Jinyan wanted to entertain?
Before Ye Qian could ask, Gu Jinyan directly gave the answer: "This is Fu Ming, you know the deputy director who came today."
Ye Qian nodded: "Yes, I know."
Gu Jinyan continued, "We've known each other for a long time. We're just friends, just ordinary friends."
"ah."
Hearing the sound, Auntie Lan came out holding Xiao Ranran. Seeing the three people at the door, she asked, "Who is this?"
Ye Qian took Xiao Ranran, and Gu Jinyan handed the dish to Aunt Lan while saying, "Aunt Lan, you should have met him before. He is the new deputy director of our bureau, Fu Ming."
Aunt Lan took the dish and thought about it for a long time, but she couldn't remember who was in front of her. Seeing this, Fu Ming said, "Aunt Lan doesn't even remember me. Fortunately, I still remember the braised pork that Aunt Lan made for me."
When the braised pork was mentioned, Aunt Lan patted her head and said happily, "You are Xiao Fu, yes, you are Xiao Fu. Look at my head, it looks familiar but I can't remember what it is. As soon as you mentioned the braised pork, I remembered it."
Ye Qian was still confused, so Gu Jinyan explained, "In the past, whenever he came to my house, Aunt Lan would make braised pork."
Ye Qian nodded in understanding, "You two have known each other for a long time, right?"
"Of course. We have known each other since we were very young and went to college together. But later I went to Shanghai and he stayed in Wuhan. I didn't expect that we could work together now." Fu Mingdao explained to Ye Qian excitedly, but Ye Qian found that there seemed to be something wrong with Fu Ming's painting style, but she couldn't tell what was wrong, so she didn't think much about it.
Fu Ming had heard before that Gu Jinyan had married a little girl. On the first day he arrived, Fu Ming had already found out everything about Ye Qian. Now when he saw Ye Qian, there was a little more scrutiny in his eyes, and after the scrutiny, he expressed approval. Fu Ming felt from the bottom of his heart that Ye Qian and Gu Jinyan were a good match.
This compatibility is not only in appearance, but more in their personalities. One is openly arguing, and the other is secretly arguing with him. Tell me, how can they not be a match?
Ye Qian naturally felt Fu Ming's gaze. She pretended not to know and handed Xiao Ranran to Gu Jinyan, then went into the kitchen with Aunt Lan. Aunt Lan was preparing dinner, and Ye Qian served a bowl of mung bean soup to the two of them. This mung bean soup should have been made by Aunt Lan in the morning, and it was just right to drink now that it had cooled down.
Gu Jinyan and Fu Ming were sitting in a room on the first floor with a sofa and chatting. When Fu Ming was laughing, Ye Qian walked in. After putting down the mung bean soup, Gu Jinyan took Ye Qian's hand and asked her to sit down.
Ye Qian was too lazy to move so she sat down and took the Xiao Ranran that had just been passed to Gu Jinyan. Xiao Ranran thought that Ye Qian and Gu Jinyan were playing a game with him and laughed out loud because they were passing it back and forth.
Fu Ming felt itching to do something, and he also despised Gu Jinyan in his heart. He was showing off his wife when she was not around, and now that his wife is here, he is showing off both his wife and children. When will it ever end?
But this boy is really good-looking. Gu Jinyan held him for a while just now and the boy didn't stop moving. He is completely different from his father. It can be seen that his personality is like his mother, and naturally his face looks like her too.
When entertaining guests in the evening, the food must be excellent. Aunt Lan made a plate of braised pork, sweet and sour pork ribs, eggplant and beans, a tomato and egg soup, and steamed rice for dinner.
Fu Ming was a little surprised when he saw the food on the table. The current situation was more serious than before. Even with connections, it was difficult to get meat. He didn't know where Gu Jinyan got it. He must have used a lot of connections. He felt a little embarrassed while eating.
Gu Jinyan naturally saw through Fu Ming's actions and didn't blame Fu Ming for this. Even state-owned restaurants were out of meat now, let alone at home. In the past two months, it was really difficult to buy vegetables, let alone meat. It was only because Ye Qian had a cheating tool that allowed her family to eat better, otherwise it would be the same for their family.
Gu Jinyan picked up some food for Fu Ming and asked him to eat more. After a few tries, Fu Ming was no longer polite. At most, he would get some more milk powder for the child, and then it would be time to eat and drink.
As they ate and chatted, Ye Qian roughly understood Fu Ming's personality. Fu Ming's personality in private was completely different from his personality in public. If she had to describe him, Ye Qian felt that he was like a husky. He was very cool and handsome in front of outsiders, but he was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins in front of close people, with no image at all.
After Ye Qian and Aunt Lan finished their meal, they left the table and left the living room to the two people who had not seen each other for a long time.
Gu Jinyan and Fu Ming became serious after seeing the two men leave. Fu Ming said, "Those in Beijing are targeting you. You'd better find a way to push them away quickly. They are definitely up to no good."
"I know. No matter what, I will definitely not go there at this time." Gu Jinyan nodded. The current situation is not good. The farther away, the less people will be involved. Who would risk their life to rush into it?
Seeing that Gu Jinyan had a plan in mind, he changed the subject: "You're already married, what about Xiaohui?"
Gu Jinyan said seriously, "What does my marriage have to do with her?"
"You're not right, are you? Even a fool can see that she likes you and has been waiting for you. She already knows the news of your marriage. Aren't you worried that she will come looking for you?"
Xiaohui's full name is Zhong Yuhui. She is the daughter of an official in Beijing and a classmate of Gu Jinyan and Fu Ming. Logically speaking, she is not young anymore, but she has been waiting for Gu Jinyan to get married. Her father can't do anything with her. Gu Jinyan didn't deliberately conceal his marriage, nor did he publicize it. Therefore, it was not until recently that people found out that Gu Jinyan had been married for more than a year. How could Zhong Yuhui swallow this anger, so she asked her father to vent her anger.
Then the idea came up to transfer Gu Jinyan to Beijing. Gu Jinyan already held a high position, and it would be inconvenient for him to do anything so far away. It would be even better if he could be under his supervision.
Gu Jinyan told Fu Ming not to worry. Fu Ming understood Gu Jinyan's methods, but the matter had not been resolved yet. As long as it was not resolved, there might be variables.
Although Ye Qian is quite powerful here, Zhong Yuhui is also a tough character. In Zhong Yuhui's eyes, these are just some petty fights of Ye Qian, and are even somewhat unbearable. People like her have to be guarded against.
Speaking of worrying about Gu Jinyan, it was only a little bit. Ye Qian had a space, so if anything happened, she could just hide in it. Moreover, he had found a lot of self-defense tools for her and placed them in the space. He was not too worried about her personal safety, but he was afraid of other things.
