Chapter 180 The Brave Enjoy the World First
Shen Tinglan answered the phone: "Section Chief Chen."
"Ting Lan, I owe you a meal last time. Do you have time?"
"Now?" Shen Tinglan asked.
Section Chief Chen replied: "Yes, now."
"I have time, where is it?"
Section Chief Chen smiled and said, "I'll send you the address."
"good."
Along the way, Shen Tinglan didn't understand why Section Chief Chen invited her to dinner.
We arrived at the dining place, a famous hot pot restaurant in Jiangcheng.
As soon as she arrived at the store, Section Chief Chen, who was sitting by the window, stood up and greeted her.
Shen Tinglan walked in with a smile: "Chief Chen, is there any good news?"
The two sat down face to face, and Section Chief Chen was neither sure to smile nor not smile.
The tone was a little vague: "I don't know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing."
"Hmm? What do you mean?" Shen Tinglan put her bag away. Some meat dishes were already cooked in the pot. She picked up the tripe on the plate with chopsticks and put it in the spicy pot to simmer it.
The timing is just right, and it's crunchy when you put it in your mouth.
tasty.
She thought that she must have hotpot with the big boss someday.
Section Chief Chen opposite seemed to be hesitant to speak, holding his chopsticks but not picking up any food, with a complicated expression.
That day, Xu Mo came to her with a paternity test and gave her two choices.
"Oh..." Section Chief Chen couldn't help but sigh when he thought of this.
"What's wrong, Chief Chen? What happened?" Shen Tinglan was eating enthusiastically, and saw that she didn't speak for a long time.
"I've run into some trouble and I'd like to find someone to give me some advice."
Shen Tinglan pointed at herself: "Me? Chief Chen, you think too highly of me."
Section Chief Chen poured a plate of spicy beef into the hot pot and said, "Tinglan, don't underestimate yourself. You are much more insightful than me. You saw Xu Mo come to see me that day."
"He came here with the paternity test report. He came prepared. Xuxu's last physical examination was done by Xu Mo."
Shen Tinglan nodded. She remembered that Section Chief Chen mentioned Xuxu's blood test last time. She had guessed it, but she didn't expect it to be true.
"Secretary Xu is really thoughtful." This seems like something a big shot would do.
Section Chief Chen put down his chopsticks, his eyes passing through the wisps of hot fireworks on the table and falling on the face of Shen Tinglan opposite him.
He whispered: "Xu Mo gave me two choices."
"Oh?" Shen Tinglan became interested, still biting the chopsticks in his mouth.
"First, I will give up my custody rights and visitation rights for Xuxu, which will be one day a month."
Shen Tinglan's eyes widened, and he dropped his chopsticks on the table with a clatter.
"Isn't this bullying? How can we agree to him?"
Section Chief Chen laughed out loud: "Don't worry, there is a second option."
Shen Tinglan was aroused by gossip: "Tell me quickly."
"Secondly, my marriage to him was legitimate. He gave me a week to consider it. If I agreed to the second option, he told me to prepare to be transferred to 4S."
As soon as Section Chief Chen finished speaking, Shen Tinglan gave a thumbs up to Xu Mobi.
There was still a piece of yellow throat in his mouth, and he spoke incoherently: "It's high, Secretary Xu is high."
Section Chief Chen was not at ease. She said, "I really don't have any expectations for marriage, but the conditions Xu Mo offered are too tempting. At my age, if no one promotes me, my future is almost over. My brother told me to think it over carefully and not walk right into the tiger's mouth."
"Even if I take a step back, my future doesn't matter at all, but for Xuxu, it makes a world of difference."
Shen Tinglan agreed, but she really couldn't give any advice on this matter.
I just asked Section Chief Chen: "What do you think?"
Section Chief Chen looked troubled. "I've been thinking about this for the past couple of days. Not many people know about this, so I wanted to talk to someone, but Xu Mo did something else yesterday."
"What's up?"
"He dealt with my stubborn ex-mother-in-law. To be honest, my heart was really moved at that moment."
"But I'm afraid."
Shen Tinglan probably understood that Section Chief Chen actually already had the answer in his heart.
Maybe chatting with her is just looking for someone to encourage and identify with me.
She thought for a moment and spoke seriously, "Secretary Xu is truly one in a million. He holds a high position of authority, and his appearance goes without saying. He resolved the problem quietly. It seems Secretary Xu is very meticulous in his work. Is it possible that he came after you?"
Section Chief Chen shook his head in denial: "How is that possible? I'm self-aware of this. A divorced woman like me, with Xu Mo's status, can find any woman. I think at his age, he'd be more focused on having a son."
After hearing this, Shen Tinglan also felt that it made sense: "But Secretary Xu is such a high-quality man. If you miss this opportunity, you will miss this opportunity. Anyway, there is no love. It is better to pick someone who is powerful and handsome."
"And there's money..."
"Why should a woman mistreat herself?"
Section Chief Chen took the iced drink and raised it up, and the two of them toasted.
He sighed, "I told you you're insightful."
Shen Tinglan laughed secretly: "Maybe I just touched your heart."
Section Chief Chen raised his eyebrows but did not refute.
Shen Tinglan took advantage of the victory and continued: "So, I'm afraid I have to eat your and Secretary Xu's wedding candy first."
"Puff..." The juice that Section Chief Chen had just drunk suddenly spurted out, but fortunately she turned sideways in time.
The spicy hot pot with red oil on the table was spared.
Shen Tinglan smiled evilly and said, “Why don’t you try it first?”
Adult topics are always so blatant.
Section Chief Chen pursed his lips and smiled as he took over the conversation: "That's possible. I haven't done it for a long time. Maybe I can try my skills first. If I do it like Shi Chao, I'll go crazy."
"Probably not. Didn't you say you were very powerful before?" Shen Tinglan bit the soft boiled beef tendon in his mouth.
Section Chief Chen curled his lips and said, "That was several years ago. Who knows if it has deteriorated?"
"What you said makes sense. Practice makes perfect." Shen Tinglan said with a serious expression.
Suddenly, the two stopped eating, looked at each other, and laughed out loud.
How could they suddenly talk about this topic and speak so confidently and seriously?
Section Chief Chen hadn't laughed so heartily in a long time. She stared at Shen Tinglan's rosy cheeks and joked: "It seems that your leader has nourished you very well."
Speaking of herself, Shen Tinglan's cheeks turned red again, and she didn't know whether it was because the hot pot was too hot or the air was too stuffy.
She smiled and didn't answer, but nodded continuously.
Section Chief Chen smiled knowingly: "Tinglan, I really envy you. Team Leader Lin is so devoted to you."
"Hey, is it possible that I worked hard enough? I fought for Lin Zhizhou myself."
"Mind talking about it?"
Shen Tinglan thought for a while and slowly said: "You only see his devotion to me. In fact, before this, I did a lot of homework. This can be traced back to when I was in my second year of high school..."
He briefly described his sad past.
Section Chief Chen's eyes were filled with surprise and admiration. "Tinglan, this blessing belongs to you. You are truly brave and fierce."
Shen Tinglan raised his glass and said: “So, the brave ones enjoy the world first, while the hesitant ones wait for the wind to come.”
"Or there might not even be any wind, and we might get caught in the rain."
Section Chief Chen was a little stunned when he heard this.
is that so?
Brave people enjoy the world first.
