An hour later, Xiao Chen arrived at Tan Yimin's office.
"Haha, Brother Xiao, long time no see."
When Tan Yimin saw Xiao Chen coming in, he looked at him carefully and smiled.
"Yes, Mayor Tan, long time no see."
Xiao Chen smiled, shook hands with Tan Yimin, and sat down.
"Why are you still yelling like that?"
Tan Yimin said this, waved his hand, asked the secretary to go out, and personally made tea for Xiao Chen.
"Come, have some tea. This is what I brought back from my last visit to Beijing. Try it."
"It tastes special, only high-ranking officials can drink it."
Xiao Chen smiled, picked it up, smelled it, and then took a sip.
"good."
"You kid..."
Tan Yimin smiled and drank a sip of tea.
"The last time I went to the capital, the person No. 1 talked about the most was you."
"Praising me again?"
Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows.
"Praise you? Haha, Number One has a lot of opinions about you."
Tan Yimin shook his head.
"Number One said, now that guy is arrogant and doesn't even mention coming to see me... I guess from now on, if I want to see this guy, I'll have to go see him."
“…”
Xiao Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Was he blaming him for not going to meet him the last time he came to Beijing?
He was in a hurry to leave at that time, and there was nothing else to do, so how could he go to meet her?
After all, he is a big shot who is busy with all kinds of things. Do you still have time to drink tea and chat with him?
Isn't that bullshit?
"Actually, in No. 1's eyes, you are more like a younger generation that he admires..."
Tan Yimin looked at Xiao Chen and said with a smile.
"Even if there's nothing going on, he'll be happy if you go visit him."
"That's what I said, but he's too busy. I don't want to bother him."
Xiao Chen took out a cigarette and handed it to Tan Yimin.
"Just like Brother Tan, the mayor of a city, if I don't have something to do, it's not good for me to come and disturb him."
"Oh? You're not here for no reason today?"
Tan Yimin lit a cigarette and asked.
"Well, there's something small that I want to talk to Brother Tan about."
Xiao Chen nodded and explained the matter briefly.
"So that's how it is."
After hearing what Xiao Chen said, Tan Yimin also became more serious, after all, it involved the ancient martial arts world.
This level is beyond his control, but it is inseparable from the secular world.
Thinking of the large number of powerful people entering Longhai, he, as the official in charge, felt a little pressure for a while.
"I chose Cangxia Cliff. There aren't many people there, so the impact shouldn't be that big... However, there are a few villages nearby. In order to prevent any problems, I still need to give Brother Tan a heads up."
Xiao Chen said to Tan Yimin.
"Cangxia Cliff..."
Tan Yimin stood up, walked to a wall and looked carefully.
This is a Longhai map, and it is slightly different from ordinary maps.
Soon, Tan Yimin found the location of Cangxia Cliff on it.
“It’s not a big problem.”
After reading it, Tan Yimin turned to Xiao Chen and said.
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded. The locations he chose were not only rarely visited, but also usually had very few people around.
Especially there are not many villages around here. If something really happens, these villages can be cleared out in a short time.
"Next weekend, isn't it?"
Tan Yimin sat back and asked.
"How long will it take?"
"Hehe, maybe a few minutes."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"How many minutes?"
Tan Yimin was stunned.
“So soon?”
"It's just beating up one person, how long will it take?"
Xiao Chen smiled.
"I have heard of it, are you sure?"
Tan Yimin asked again.
"Of course I am sure. If I were not sure, would I choose a place and let someone beat me?"
Xiao Chen lit up another cigarette.
"Okay, as long as you are sure. I will have someone cooperate with you when the time comes."
Tan Yimin also smiled.
"What else do you need me to do?"
"There's nothing else."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Besides this, I just wanted to come and see Brother Tan."
"Haha, you have some conscience."
Tan Yimin smiled.
"By the way, you are taking Bai Ye with you on this trip, right?"
"Well, take Xiaobai with you. He also came back with me."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Luckily Xiaobai went with me this time, otherwise it would have been dangerous and I might not have been able to come back."
"Oh? So dangerous?"
Tan Yimin was startled and sat up straight.
"What's going on?"
"Thinking about it now, I'm a little scared."
Xiao Chen looked at Tan Yimin and smiled secretly in his heart. It seemed that Brother Tan was quite concerned about Xiaobai, otherwise he would not have asked proactively.
Originally, he didn't know how to bring the topic to Bai Ye, but now, he can swing it around and brag to Xiao Bai.
Afterwards, he recounted in detail how he was trapped by the Netherworld Blood Wolf and how Bai Ye bravely stood in front of him without fear of death.
Of course, emphasis was placed on praising Bai Ye's loyalty and so on. Anyway, there was only one purpose...to make Xiao Bai gain enough favor in front of his future father-in-law.
"Xiaobai, Xiaobai, I have done more for you than your father ever did... Just for this reason, I think it's not too much for you to call me 'godfather'."
Xiao Chen muttered to himself, but his face was full of emotion, and he continued to brag to Bai Ye.
Listening to Xiao Chen's story, Tan Yimin was also quite moved.
Although he had not experienced these things, from Xiao Chen's words, the scene at that time would emerge in his mind. It must have been extremely dangerous.
But at that time, Bai Ye was able to stand in front of Xiao Chen and even risk his life. This was extremely rare.
Especially when he heard that Bai Ye was seriously injured and dying, his heart was lifted up.
Although he knew that Bai Ye was fine in the end, he still couldn't help but ask: "How is Bai Ye now?"
As a father, he still understood his daughter and knew that she had developed a good impression of Bai Ye.
Therefore, he also regarded Bai Ye as "one of his own" in his heart, and it was inevitable that he would worry about something.
Seeing Tan Yimin's reaction, Xiao Chen's heart moved and he smiled: "Brother Tan, don't worry, I'm here, so how can he get into trouble..."
"Uh-huh."
Tan Yimin seemed to realize that his reaction was a bit too much and leaned back in his chair.
"And what happened next?"
"Later, I woke up from that state..."
Xiao Chen continued to tell the story, not forgetting to continue to help Bai Ye improve his favorability.
After listening to Xiao Chen's story, Tan Yimin breathed a sigh of relief. It was really dangerous.
At the same time, he also had a better understanding of the friendship between Xiao Chen and Bai Ye.
This is a true life-long friendship!
In this day and age, this kind of friendship is too rare.
He suddenly understood why Xiao Chen was so nice to Bai Ye.
"Brother Tan, Xiaobai is my brother in life and death, the kind of brother I can trust with my life and death."
Xiao Chen looked at Tan Yimin and said.
"I will give him a chance to live, and he will give me the same chance."
"I see."
Tan Yimin nodded.
"I was a soldier, I can understand this feeling."
"oh?"
Xiao Chen was surprised. Old Tan had served in the army?
Thinking about it again, it was true. Sometimes he would have this feeling towards Lao Tan.
However, Lao Tan has been away from the military camp for too long, and many traces have faded.
"Where's Bai Ye? He was injured so badly, how is his recovery going?"
Tan Yimin asked.
"Haha, as long as I'm here, there will be no problem."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"Don't worry, Brother Tan, your future son-in-law doesn't have any sequelae..."
"Hey, don't talk nonsense."
Tan Yimin coughed dryly.
"What future son-in-law? I don't approve of him, and he and Xiaoyao haven't confirmed their relationship yet."
"Haha, isn't this just a matter of time? We're all experienced people, don't you understand this?"
Xiao Chen smiled.
“…”
Tan Yimin was speechless. How could he be such an experienced person at such a young age?
"Since I met Xiao Bai, I have never seen him so serious... He said this is the feeling of first love."
Xiao Chen said.
"The feeling of first love? Do you believe it?"
Tan Yimin curled his lips.
"Uh... it feels like first love, but I'm not saying this is first love."
Xiao Chen was a little embarrassed. He knew that Xiaobai's ridiculous deeds in Longhai could not be hidden from Tan Yimin.
As long as Tan Yimin wanted to investigate, he could probably find out exactly who Bai Ye checked into a hotel with and on which day.
Only he doesn't want to check it anymore.
"My children and grandchildren will have their own blessings, so leave everything to them."
Tan Yimin looked at Xiao Chen.
"We...are experienced people, so we shouldn't interfere."
"Hahaha, right."
Xiao Chen laughed loudly. It was a great gain today to get the advice "Don't interfere too much".
This is Tan Yimin’s attitude.
He believed that as long as Tan Yimin did not object, Xiaobai would definitely be able to win over Tan Muyao.
If he can't even take down Tan Muyao...it would be too embarrassing for him.
"I also know something about Chief Guan's visit. I heard it has been resolved?"
Tan Yimin changed the subject and said.
"Well, it's been resolved."
Xiao Chen nodded and chatted with Tan Yimin.
The two talked about a wide range of topics, both above and below, such as the Longhai pattern and so on.
After about an hour, Xiao Chen got up and prepared to leave.
"I have something else to do at noon, so I won't keep you here, otherwise I would have to keep you to eat with me."
Tan Yimin said with a smile.
"Xiaoyao will be back in the next few days... Then you can come to our house as a guest."
"OK."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"When the time comes... take that kid with you."
Tan Yimin added another sentence.
"Hahaha, I don't need to invite this one, right? I guess Mu Yao has already invited him."
Xiao Chen laughed.
"well……"
Tan Yimin sighed. The cabbages he had raised were about to be eaten by pigs.
The old father also felt very upset.
"Brother Tan, let's go. If you need anything, just call me."
Xiao Chen said to Tan Yimin.
"good."
Tan Yimin nodded and sent Xiao Chen to the door.
Xiao Chen drove away, called Bai Ye and told him about Lao Tan's attitude.
"Brother Chen, you've been so good to me that I want to marry you."
Bai Ye was very excited when he heard that Tan Yimin had no objection.
"roll……"
Xiao Chen was annoyed.
"Hang up, come to the manor in the evening."
"Sister Qing is back, I know."
Bai Ye agreed.
"Then I'll hang up first. I still have to deepen my relationship with my good brother."
"hehe."
Xiao Chen smiled. He knew who the good brother Bai Ye was talking about.
"Be careful, but don't overdo it... If it's too obvious, it'll feel like you're fooling fools. After all, we're all kind people."
