I thought Huang Guoquan would show a disapproving expression and scold him after hearing this.

As a result, Xing Tian saw Secretary Huang's face, whose expression became more and more thoughtful.

This is?

"Old Xing, go get a room at the guesthouse and rest there. Tomorrow morning, as soon as Comrade Mo Yan wakes up, ask her to come to my office."

"Uh, okay, Secretary, why don't you go to the guesthouse and have a rest? How can you rest well on the sofa in the office?"

"No, I don't sleep much. Besides, I slept for a few hours when I was at home. I'm not very sleepy. A nap on the sofa will be enough."

"I asked you to go to the guesthouse to rest because you have been accompanying Comrade Mo Yan and the others these days. You have become familiar with them and are easier to talk to. If I go there too, I will see them unexpectedly tomorrow morning and it will be awkward without any buffer time."

Xing Tian thought about it and nodded in agreement.

Early the next morning.

Not long after Mo Yan and her daughter got up, there was a knock on the door.

When he opened the door, he saw Xing Tian, ​​who was dressed neatly.

"Good morning, Comrade Mo Yan, I hope I didn't disturb you."

"Director Xing, so early? Did you not sleep last night? Are you troubled by the large amount of film that needs to be developed?"

Although Xing Tian tried hard to dress himself up, Mo Yan could still tell from the red bloodshot in his eyes that he probably didn't sleep for long.

"No, of course not. The fact is, Secretary Shannan Jiang's office called last night and asked you to call his office early this morning. So, I figured out the time and thought you and Niuniu would be up by now, so I knocked on the door."

"Ah? Is it Grandpa Jiang who called? Mom, could something have happened at home?"

Pei Zaizai was also very surprised when he heard this.

Mo Yan frowned. It shouldn't be the case, as they had only been in Shanghai for a few days.

Jiang Zhenguo and the others knew that they came to Shanghai to have fun. Even if they were worried that they would not come back after coming out, they should not be so anxious. Why did they call to urge them after only a few days?

"Wouldn't it be better if we just call back and ask?"

Mo Yan thought about it and said to Xing Tian, ​​"Director Xing, please take us to Secretary Huang's office now."

"Of course. Have you and Niuniu finished washing up? If you have, we will go over now. Secretary Huang did not go back to rest after receiving a phone call in the middle of the night. He slept on the sofa in the office. He was afraid that Shannan would call again."

When Mo Yan heard that Huang Guoquan, the No. 1 in Shanghai, had stayed on the sofa all night because of this phone call, she felt that today seemed to be another day when his identity would be exposed.

"We've already washed up, let's go now, don't keep Secretary Huang waiting for too long. I originally planned to visit Secretary Huang before leaving, but I didn't expect it to be so sudden."

"It doesn't matter. Secretary Huang has wanted to meet you and Niu Niu for a long time. Secretary Huang welcomes you and Niu Niu to visit at any time."

Knock knock knock!

"Please come in!"

"Secretary Huang, Comrade Mo Yan and little sister Niuniu are here."

"Hello, Secretary Huang!"

"Hello, Grandpa Huang!"

"Comrade Mo Yan, I'm finally honored to meet you. Don't be polite, please take a seat! This is Niuniu, oh, she's even cuter than Lao Xing described!"

"Grandpa Huang looks so young, even younger than Uncle Xing! I think we should call him Uncle Huang instead of Grandpa Huang."

Pei Zaizai looked at Huang Guoquan's black hair seriously, as if he was thinking whether the address was too old and should be changed.

Huang Guoquan waved his hands when he heard this, "Hey, you can't change it, that would mess up the generations! Your Grandpa Jiang and I have been friends for many years. If you call me Uncle Huang and then call him Grandpa Jiang, wouldn't I be a generation shorter than him? That won't do! That absolutely won't do!"

Seeing Huang Guoquan's expression of "I won't do this even if you kill me", Pei Zaizai was immediately amused.

When she smiled, Mo Yan couldn't help but smile too.

The atmosphere started with this smile and naturally became relaxed and natural.

"You came so early. Did Old Xing knock on your door?"

"Wow! Grandpa Huang, how did you know? Uncle Xing really came to knock on the door, but when he knocked on the door, my mother and I were already awake, but we hadn't had breakfast yet. Grandpa Huang, have you had breakfast?"

"Uncle Xing said that you didn't go home to sleep because of Grandpa Jiang's phone call in the middle of the night. Have you washed up now?"

Children's innocent questions can easily let down adults' guard.

After all, in the adult world, no matter how smart a child is, he is only a three or four-year-old child. How smart can he be?

Therefore, Huang Guoquan immediately scolded Xing Tian with a smile, "Old Xing, I knew it was you who woke up Comrade Mo Yan and Niu Niu. Didn't I tell you yesterday? Wait until they wake up naturally and go out before you talk to them about this matter."

"Yes, yes, Secretary, I was too anxious, but it's not all out of sympathy for you. I'm also worried about Secretary Jiang in Shannan. A call in the middle of the night must be about something important. I thought that if Comrade Mo Yan and Niuniu knew about this, they would definitely want to know what happened at home as soon as possible. Isn't this-"

"Secretary Huang, please don't blame Director Xing. He didn't wake us up. My son and I were already awake. Look, if it's convenient, I'll call Shannan right now to see what happened."

"Convenient! Of course it's convenient! But for me and Lao Xing, do we need to temporarily avoid it?"

Huang Guoquan asked this question with some intention.

This is his office, and he is the number one in Shanghai. Mo Yan and the others are still using his office phone. If it is not really confidential, they should not use his phone and want to keep it secret from him.

Mo Yan shook his head calmly, "No need, this is your office. How can we borrow the phone and then kick you out?"

"Then Old Xing, quickly make a call for Comrade Mo Yan."

Xing Tian hurried forward, "Okay, Comrade Mo Yan, please wait a moment."

Long-distance calls in this era still require human operators to conduct long-distance transfers.

So after waiting for about a minute, the call was finally connected.

"Hello, is this Secretary Jiang's office? Comrade Mo Yan is here. I asked her to talk to you."

Xing Tian said as he handed the microphone to Mo Yan.

Mo Yan took it and said simply, "Uncle Jiang, I'm Mo Yan, what happened?"

Huang Guoquan raised his eyebrows.

Mo Yan called him Secretary Huang just now, but she called Jiang Zhenguo Uncle Jiang.

It can be seen that their personal relationship is also good.
