Chapter 238 Qi Yu 2
Qi Yu took the initiative to greet He Yong'an:
"Hello, comrade, my name is Qi Yu. May I ask if we can get to know each other?"
He Yong'an was enjoying his meal when he was interrupted. Somewhat puzzled, he looked up and saw a man of similar age to him.
After a slight pause, they quickly introduced themselves, and that's how the two got to know each other.
Later, He Yong'an noticed that his eyes kept glancing at his mushroom sauce, and he immediately understood. He knew how tempting his wife's mushroom sauce was.
Everyone who has tasted it remembers it fondly.
The taste was indescribably good. Now that he had met a new friend who clearly also liked it, he didn't hesitate to open the lid of the mushroom sauce and push it towards Qi Yu.
The meaning was clear: invite him to eat.
Seeing how generous his new friend was, Qi Yu, who was not stingy himself, didn't stand on ceremony. Without saying a word, he took the bottle, poured a large piece into his bowl, and eagerly began to eat.
There was no other reason than that he saw the man across from him named He Yong'an pouring the sauce over the food, and the aroma and the way it looked and tasted made him unable to wait even a moment longer.
The moment he put it in his mouth, Qi Yu's eyes widened, his gaze shining brightly, as if he had found a long-lost treasure.
He never expected that this mushroom sauce, which looked so delicious, would taste even better than it looked.
I wonder what's in this mushroom sauce.
After putting it in his mouth, he chewed it carefully for the second time and felt that there should be minced meat, mushrooms, and chili peppers inside, as well as some other seasonings, but he couldn't taste them.
But the aroma was incomparable to any of the chili sauces he had eaten in the provincial capital before. It was so delicious, with an extremely rich fragrance and a great taste. It left a lasting impression after you tasted it.
It makes you want to eat more.
Having lived in the provincial capital for so long, he had never tasted such delicious mushroom sauce. Not to mention mushroom sauce, other dishes pale in comparison to this mushroom sauce.
He secretly thought to himself that he was determined to befriend this He Yong'an. Someone who could cook such delicious food was definitely worth getting to know.
Who could blame him? From childhood to adulthood, Qi Yu had always had a great fondness for food.
He was already tired of eating at all the state-run restaurants, big and small, in the provincial capital.
And the taste is nowhere near as good as this mushroom sauce.
Because of Qi Yu's initiative and He Yong'an's willingness to cooperate, and because the two were also alumni of the Party School, they soon became good friends.
He Yong'an had no doubts about his identity, since they studied at the same Party School and it would be easy to find out where he worked.
Before long, He Yong'an learned that Qi Yu's family was from the provincial capital, and his father was the director of the provincial public security bureau. He himself did not work in the public security system because he did not like the police profession.
Instead, he now works at the Health Department in the provincial capital.
This training trip was arranged by my workplace.
After listening to Qi Yu's introduction, He Yong'an realized that with his family background, studying at the Party School was just a way for him to enhance his own prestige, unlike Qi Yu's situation.
However, He Yong'an is a broad-minded and generous person. Especially after having a heart-to-heart talk with Feng Qingqing last time, he can be very open and honest when interacting with others, even people like Qi Yu who come from prominent families.
This made Qi Yu secretly nod in approval of him.
You should know that once someone learns about your family background, they will all rush to curry favor with you.
The difference is simply that some people are more skillful, while others use such despicable methods that make people never want to see them again, creating an awkward situation so bad that you could dig three bedrooms and two living rooms out of the soles of your feet.
Although Qi Yu is a straightforward and cheerful person who seems simple-minded, it's impossible for someone from such a family to be completely observant.
He initially met He Yong'an because he was attracted by the rich aroma of the mushroom sauce, but if He Yong'an had problems with his character, he would not become close to him.
Given his father's position, he was extremely careful in making friends, fearing it might have a negative impact on his father.
Especially after hearing that He Yong'an was a member of the public security system, an ordinary criminal police officer in a county, I was extremely wary during our initial interactions.
After all, given He Yong'an's status, if one could establish connections with his family, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that it would be like a carp leaping over the dragon gate (a metaphor for achieving great success).
Everything He Yong'an has is just a matter of a word from his father.
But after careful observation, especially after He Yong'an learned about his father's position, He Yong'an showed a little surprise, but nothing more.
Even during their subsequent interactions, He Yong'an did not show any unusual behavior.
This is truly remarkable.
It should be noted that He Yong'an's study at the Party School lasted only two months, and almost a month had passed since they met.
In other words, if they cannot build a good relationship with him in the next month, then it will be a long time before they can see each other again.
But He Yong'an didn't do any of what he had expected. Instead, he was busy with the Party School teachers' courses every day, and seemed to be very dedicated.
They put their new friend aside.
This, on the contrary, made Qi Yu look at him with great respect, feeling that this person was kind-hearted, capable, and professionally competent.
Although Qi Yu and He Yong'an were not in the same system, they still took some basic courses together.
He knew from the feedback from his teachers that He Yong'an was an outstanding talent in all aspects, and all the teachers were extremely satisfied with him.
This explains why He Yong'an, just an ordinary criminal police officer in the county public security bureau, was selected to study at the Party School.
As the two spent more time together, Qi Yu gained a deeper understanding of He Yong'an and came to genuinely appreciate him, thus considering him a true friend.
It wasn't that He Yong'an didn't value this friend who had taken the initiative to approach him, but given the friend's family background, he figured he must have grown up being pampered and adored. This kind of eagerness wasn't a good deal.
Moreover, deep down, although the other party's family background seems unattainable now, he believes that he may be able to reach that level in the future.
But having such a friend right now isn't a bad thing.
It was only through their mutual understanding that their relationship progressed so rapidly.
If you were to ask what Qi Hong loves most these days, it would be two things, and both of them were given to him by He Yong'an.
One of the dishes was naturally the mushroom sauce, which the two of them had already finished in the second week after he met He Yong'an.
The other item was the medicinal tea that Feng Qingqing had brought to He Yong'an when she came to the provincial capital.
He Yong'an had his reasons for sharing two small packets with Qi Yu.
