official career

"Can you bring him over? I want to see him." Li Jing said in a weak voice.

Because Li Jing had just undergone surgery, she was not only on an IV drip, but also had instruments plugged into her back. She was very weak and couldn't move. So even though she was in the ward, she hadn't seen her son much.

Qin Feng took Li Jing's son from the cradle nearby and sat him beside the bed for Li Jing to watch him.

Li Jing just looked at her son foolishly with a smile on her face, but suddenly tears came out of her eyes while she was smiling.

Qin Feng could understand why Li Jing cried. Although Li Jing never complained about the hardship or tiredness, the pain of a woman getting pregnant and giving birth to a child alone was self-evident.

Li Jing reached out her hand and gently stroked her son's smiling face as he slept, saying, "His eyes and nose look exactly like yours."

Qin Feng's scalp tingled again when he heard this. He couldn't understand why Li Jing kept saying that this child looked like him. This always sounded weird to Qin Feng, but Qin Feng would not argue with Li Jing at this time.

"Qin Feng, I asked you to help him choose a name. Have you decided?" Li Jing suddenly asked.

There have been too many things happening recently, and if Li Jing hadn't mentioned it, Qin Feng would have completely forgotten about it. But now that things have come to this, Qin Feng couldn't tell Li Jing that he had completely forgotten about it.

"Zheheng, what do you think?" Qin Feng casually said a name.

"'Zhe' means smart, talented, wise, shrewd and outstanding. But a man cannot just be smart and talented, he must also have perseverance, determination and willpower. If a person has talent and perseverance, he will definitely be able to succeed." Qin Feng then forced an explanation for the name he said afterwards.

"Zheheng...Qin Zheheng, sounds nice." Li Jing fell into a state of longing.

"What...what...Qin Zheheng?" Qin Feng's eyes widened.

Li Jing also realized that she spoke without thinking and said whatever she thought, so she quickly said, "Li Zheheng, I'm talking nonsense."

Qin Feng smiled helplessly. Li Jing's casual remark scared him.

"I just picked it randomly, don't take it seriously. You are his mother, and you should decide what his name is. Don't worry about customs and habits." Qin Feng said.

"Li Zheheng is a nice name with a good meaning. You are right. A boy must have talent and perseverance. Remember, your name will be Li Zheheng from now on. Do you hear me?" Li Jing stroked her son's little face again.

Qin Feng did not actually stay in the ward all night. He stayed with her until almost midnight. Li Jing was not seriously ill and fell asleep. Qin Feng then gave some instructions to the nanny, then quietly left and went home to rest.

The next morning, Qin Feng and Wang Jun set out back to Xiquan. For Qin Feng, Li Jing giving birth to a child was not a big deal, at least not for him. To be precise, this matter had little to do with him, although the child was indeed very likable.

Originally, Qin Feng was supposed to chair today's mayoral meeting, but Qin Feng took a temporary leave, which forced Liu Xiaoping, who had other work to do, to stay and convene the mayoral meeting.

However, not long after Qin Feng returned to the office in the afternoon, Liu Xiaoping personally called Qin Feng and asked him to go to his office.

"Qin Feng is here. Come, come, sit down. Come and try the tea that just came out of Wuyi Mountain this year." Liu Xiaoping was already waiting for Qin Feng on the sofa in the office.

"How about it?"

"After all, it is new tea. The fragrance is incomparable to that of old tea."

"Xiao Zhou, take the two boxes of new Wuyi Mountain tea in the cabinet to Mayor Qin's office." Liu Xiaoping directly instructed the secretary.

"Mayor, you are too polite..."

"Two boxes of tea, what's the polite thing to do?"

"Mayor, I'm sorry. According to the arrangement, I was supposed to preside over today's mayor's meeting. However, I had something urgent to do last night. A very good friend of mine gave birth to a child. I was really embarrassed to leave and disturb your work arrangements today." Qin Feng said with a smile.

The two of them exchanged pleasantries with forced smiles. This is how the officialdom is: there are only eternal interests, no eternal friends, and even less eternal enemies.

"Qin Feng, I was in Zhongjiang this weekend and met with Vice Governor Deng." Liu Xiaoping finally talked about this.

In fact, Qin Feng also vaguely guessed that Liu Xiaoping called him over today specifically to talk about this matter.

Deng Xiaogang had already asked the Deputy Secretary-General of the Provincial Government to step forward on this matter. Later, Vice Governor Deng called Xie Zhiguo and secretly mentioned this matter, but there has been no response. Qin Feng refused to sign the document and even invalidated the acceptance report that had been completed. Deng Xiaogang could not help but be anxious.

With so many people being looked for, it is impossible not to look for Liu Xiaoping, and to be precise, Liu Xiaoping is Qin Feng's direct leader and the person in charge of this matter. In addition, Liu Xiaoping has always had a good relationship with Vice Governor Deng, so when Liu Xiaoping called Qin Feng over today, Qin Feng guessed that Liu Xiaoping was probably going to talk about this matter.

Liu Xiaoping paused here. In fact, Liu Xiaoping mentioned Vice Governor Deng. This matter was already clear to Liu Xiaoping and Qin Feng, so Liu Xiaoping paused and waited for Qin Feng's answer.

But Qin Feng was also smart. He pretended not to understand what Liu Xiaoping said. He sat there smoking, saying nothing, waiting for Liu Xiaoping to continue.

"Qin Feng, since Vice Governor Deng has already come forward to talk about this matter, it is not right to hold it up any longer. Our work in Xiquan still needs the support of Vice Governor Deng. Without the support of Vice Governor Deng, we will not be able to do a lot of work in Xiquan, especially our municipal government."

"So, we still have to consider the overall situation. We can't let the work of the entire municipal government fall into trouble because of a poverty alleviation relocation project, don't you think?" Liu Xiaoping said earnestly while handing Qin Feng another cigarette.

For Liu Xiaoping, his attitude towards Qin Feng was already "kind" enough. You have to know that he doesn't usually talk to people like this. He starts to curse if something goes wrong with him. The entire city government is aware of this.

Liu Xiaoping did not say this casually. If he offended Vice Governor Deng, it would definitely bring great resistance to the future work of the Xiquan Municipal Government. Vice Governor Deng was the real power in the provincial government. This was why Deng Xiaogang dared to be so unscrupulous in the cities and counties of Jiangnan Province in recent years. He did not take ordinary mayors seriously because no one dared to offend his father.

Liu Xiaoping has been persuading Qin Feng from the perspective of the municipal government. This is because Qin Feng and he are also the two biggest leaders of the municipal government. If the work of the municipal government is not carried out smoothly, Liu Xiaoping will be responsible, and Qin Feng cannot escape either.
