shallow marriage deep love

The next day, Monday.

The municipal government will conduct public tenders for investment projects.

Ye Tingshen arrived at the city hall ahead of time as usual, got out of the car and closed the door. Unexpectedly, before reaching the gate, he was suddenly surrounded!

To be precise, he was surrounded by a group of reporters.

Immediately afterwards, a series of questions were thrown out without giving him any chance to respond.

"Mayor Ye, I heard that you are in charge of this bidding?"

"Mayor Ye, many powerful companies in the city will participate in this bidding, including the Su Group. Is there such a thing?"

"Mayor Ye, we have received news that Mr. Su, the president of the Su Group, is related to you, and his sister is your wife. May I ask whether you will appoint the Su Group because of it?"

"This bidding is just a formality, because the Su Group has been appointed by default. Is this news true? Mayor Ye, can I trouble you to answer?"

The problem was still going on, but Ye Tingshen curled his lips indistinctly.

Default?

Going through the motions?
Ah……

Seeing that Ye Tingshen didn't respond, a bold reporter raised the microphone and stretched it out in front of Ye Tingshen, deliberately raising his voice: "Mayor Ye, does your silence mean acquiescence?"

Ye Ting turned around quickly and looked directly at the reporter who was speaking.

Perhaps it was because his eyes were too sharp, the reporter couldn't help shrinking his body, but he continued to speak with a righteous look: "Mayor Ye, we have the right to know the truth! I hope you can simply say Down!"

"Mayor Ye!" Xu Cheng rushed over as soon as he heard the news of being surrounded by reporters, frowning together, "Everyone, we..."

"Secretary Xu." Ye Ting calmly interrupted what he wanted to say next, and with a smile on his lips, he said to the reporters surrounding him, "The bidding has not yet officially started, and the relevant issues are not yet inconvenient." Answer, but what you asked just now, I think it is really necessary to tell you.”

When he said this, the reporters instantly became excited, scrambling to rush forward, fearing that if they fell behind, they would not be able to grab the headlines.

While paying attention to them, Xu Cheng protected Ye Tingshen from being hit.

Eagle eyes quickly swept across the crowd, Ye Ting cleared his throat deeply, suppressed his smile and said solemnly: "First, the Su Group did participate in the tender, and this tender is open to all powerful enterprises. I don’t need to say that everyone knows about the situation in the city. As for the internal decision, I don’t know where you got the news. Although I am in charge of the bidding meeting, I am not the only one who can make the decision. Think highly of me, I don’t have that ability, and I don’t have that kind of thinking. Which company wins the bid depends on their respective strengths and capabilities.”

Taking a step forward, he looked directly at the reporter just now, and said in a clear voice, "That's all I want to say, and the rest, I'm sorry, I can't disclose it."

After all, he ignored the reporter's voice again, turned around and walked into the building, leaving the rest to Xu Cheng.

office.

Ye Ting sat deeply in the chair, knocking on the table with his right hand subconsciously, but thinking about the situation just now below in his mind.

"Mayor Ye." Xu Cheng knocked on the door and came in.

"It's settled?" Ye Ting didn't raise his deep eyelids.

"It's been dealt with," Xu Cheng nodded, his eyes flashed with disbelief, "Mayor Ye, few people in this city know about your relationship with President Su, let alone the media, but today it suddenly happened like this." As soon as it comes out, is it aimed at the bidding meeting in the afternoon?"

Ye Ting twitched the corner of his mouth deeply, seeming to be disdainful but also knowing: "I know who released the news, and it is indeed for the bidding meeting."

He didn't hide it from Xu Cheng, he had always trusted Xu Cheng.

"Then..." Xu Cheng hesitated, "If any bad news comes out, I'm afraid it will be very bad for you and the bidding."

"I know." Ye Ting opened his eyes suddenly, and there was a flash of sharpness in it, "The bidding will still be as usual, don't worry about this for now, let's go with the flow."

Xu Cheng understood immediately, with a smile on his face: "Understood, then I'll prepare first."

"Well, let's go."

Ye Tingshen was not affected in the slightest, and continued to deal with work as usual.

However, not long after, Xu Cheng knocked on the door again and entered with a slightly dignified expression: "Mayor Ye, Secretary Yang from the province is here."

Secretary Yang?
What is he doing here at this time?
Ye Ting was deeply puzzled, but he never showed it on his face.

Soon, Secretary Yang was welcomed in, and with him was his secretary.

"Secretary Yang." Ye Tingshen walked over.

"The court is deep." Secretary Yang nodded, his lips moved again and again, as if he wanted to say something but was very embarrassed.

Ye Ting smiled deeply: "I don't know why Secretary Yang came here." Since he introduced Xia Yan last time, the two haven't had much contact, even as family friends.But this time, before the bidding meeting, he thought he came here as the secretary of the provincial party committee, obviously for bidding.Since the reporter can get the news, of course he will.

Thinking of this, Ye Tingshen was not in a hurry, he wanted to see what Secretary Yang would say.

Secretary Yang raised his head and glanced at him. Seeing his frank and relaxed look, he felt a little suspicious in his heart. Could it be that the news was wrong?After all, he knows what this child is like, but...

"Secretary..." The secretary next to him reminded him softly, "The province is still waiting for your reply?"

Although the voice was soft, Ye Tingshen still heard it because it was not far away.

Province?He smiled noncommittally.

After being reminded by the secretary, Secretary Yang finally opened his mouth and explained the purpose of his visit with a serious face: "Ting Shen, to tell you the truth, I am here this time because of the intention of the province, and I need to check with you on some things."

"Secretary Yang, please tell me." Ye Tingshen had a smile on his lips, with an extraordinary demeanor.

Secretary Yang pondered and asked: "I heard that the Su Group in your city A also participated in this bidding meeting?"

It really is for this.

Ye Ting smiled deeply, met his probing gaze without dodging, and generously admitted: "Yes." Then, before he could speak, he said, "Does Secretary Yang still want to ask about my relationship with the president of the Su Group? And Has the Su Group been selected by default in this tender?"

Being preempted to tell the truth, Secretary Yang couldn't hold back for a while, he said in a embarrassed way: "Ting Shen, I...you..."

Ye Tingshen didn't give him time to buffer his embarrassment, put away his smile and returned to his cold appearance: "Secretary Yang, since I took office as the mayor of City A, I have never done anything to be sorry for this position. I don’t bother to do it.”

"Tingshen, you misunderstood Uncle Yang." Secretary Yang seemed a little anxious, and simply used the elder card, but unfortunately, he was facing Ye Tingshen, not someone else.

"Uncle Yang," Ye Ting said with a deep smile, "Then let's talk in this capacity, Uncle Yang, I can be regarded as you grew up watching me grow up, do you still have doubts about my character? I am not afraid of shadows Wan, the internal appointment is completely a rumor. If Mr. Su is capable and can get unanimous approval at the bidding meeting, naturally this project will be handed over to him. If the skills are not as good as others, I will not insist on appointing him because of personal relationship .”

Secretary Yang became more and more embarrassed, and opened his mouth to say something to save him, but he interrupted him again.

"Besides, if I really want to be selfish, Xia Yan, based on the background of his Xia family in the capital city and his relationship with the former secretary of the municipal party committee, I can completely refuse him to participate in the bidding meeting and not give him any chance. Secretary Yang, Do you think so?" Ye Ting looked at him deeply, his face was calm, but his expression was unquestionable.

Secretary Yang was so guilty that he couldn't say a word.

"Secretary!" The secretary at the side looked a little anxious, and couldn't help but say out loud, "But the province's intention..."

Ye Ting looked at the secretary who didn't hide his emotions very well, and had a clue in his heart. It seemed that it was not only revealed to the media, Xia Yan's hand was also extended to the province.

Heh, I really underestimated Xia Yan's power.

Thinking of this, he retreated into advance: "If Secretary Yang is not at ease, he can participate in the whole bidding meeting."

"This..." Secretary Yang was a little embarrassed. He felt that what he said today might have hurt Ting Shen's heart, but he couldn't help it.

The secretary at the side was afraid that he would miss this opportunity, so he hurriedly said, "Secretary, this couldn't be better."

Ye Tingshen didn't notice their small movements, his face was still calm.

Secretary Yang thought over and over again, and finally agreed: "So that's it. After all, the province also attaches great importance to this project, and it can't be sloppy. What do you think, Ting Shen?" He looked up at Ye Tingshen, but was confused by his eyes mind.

For some reason, he always felt that Ye Tingshen's eyes could see through many things, even though he had been in the officialdom for so many years, he seemed to be able to see through Ye Tingshen's eyes thoroughly.

He coughed uncomfortably, and before Ye Tingshen could answer, Secretary Yang said seemingly unintentionally: "Actually, the province is still more optimistic about the Xia Group. After all, it is recognized that its strength is strong. In fact, it was thinking of cooperating with the Xia Group from the beginning. , I just didn’t expect you to invite public bids. Hehe..."

Are you finally getting to the point?Ye Ting couldn't help but sneered in his heart, after all, letting Xia Yan win the bid is the ultimate goal.

After Secretary Yang finished speaking, he found that Ye Tingshen did not respond. He was humiliated again and again today, and now he was a little unhappy, so when he spoke again, his tone was a little stronger: "Tingshen, actually, this It was unanimously agreed upon by the province after a meeting, you still have a lot to consider in this project, and you have to take care of all aspects, understand?"

"Thank you, Secretary Yang, for reminding me." Ye Tingshen looked like he was being educated humbly, but he just didn't fully express his position. Secretary Yang and his secretary couldn't help becoming anxious after seeing it.

In desperation, the secretary blurted out: "Mayor Ye, do you really not understand what we mean?"
