Lu Yiwei insisted, "Jinhe, I know you care about me, but I am a man. You have to give me some face."
Seeing Lu Yiwei's serious look, Xia Jinhe was stunned for a long time and said, "Okay, okay. I will give you some face. How about this? I will pay for the decoration and you will pay for the furniture and electrical appliances. Is that okay?"
"Okay!" Lu Yiwei smiled and said, "I will give you 100,000 yuan tomorrow. You can buy whatever you like. Let's just buy the expensive ones. Hehe!"
"100,000 yuan? You are a tycoon. " Xia Jinhe was surprised to hear such a large number and said, "Why do you need so much? It's too much. How about you give me 30,000 yuan?"
"60,000 yuan! If you bargain with me again, I will be angry. "Lu Yiwei pretended to be angry.
"Okay, okay, okay. I will listen to you." Xia Jinhe was like a docile deer snuggling on Lu Yiwei's broad and strong shoulder, feeling warm.
Xia Jinhe was really drunk. As soon as she went out, she held the pole and vomited. Lu Yiwei patted her back and blamed himself, "It's all my fault. I know you can't drink, but I still let you drink so much."
Xia Jinhe slowly straightened her back. Her face was flushed, like an apple in autumn, white with a hint of red, making people want to take a bite. She struggled to lift her eyelids and said, "I am happy today. I like it!"
It was late. Lu Yiwei did not plan to send Xia Jinhe back to the dormitory. He looked up and saw a hotel on the roof of the hot pot restaurant, so he helped Xia Jinhe into the hotel.
"Waiter, register a room." Lu Yiwei said while taking care of Xia Jinhe, who could not even stand steadily.
Seeing this, the waiter said, "Sir, how many rooms do you want to register?"
"One! Didn't you hear? "Lu Yiwei said impatiently.
"Who is this lady?" The waiter said cautiously.
"What lady? What kind of attitude is this? Is there anyone who talks like that? Call your boss over! "Lu Yiwei had drunk quite a bit, and it was hard for him to accept a sentence that was not pleasing to his ears.
"No, no, no. Sir, you misunderstood me. I will register your room now. Please show me your ID," the attendant said with a red face.
"Pa!" Lu Yiwei threw his ID card on the counter and said, "Hurry up, can't you see my wife is drunk?"
The attendant quickly completed the procedures and respectfully handed the room card to Lu Yiwei. Before going upstairs, the waiter didn't forget to remind him, "Sir, there has been a crackdown recently …"
"What the hell do you mean?!" Lu Yiwei turned around and shouted angrily, "What do you mean? Are you blind? Does your eye look like that? "
The waiter was so frightened by Lu Yiwei that he curled up on the spot and didn't say a word.
At this time, a fat man walked out and quickly came to the rescue. He first smiled at Lu Yiwei, then turned around and scolded the waiter, "Do you know how to speak? Do you think this boss is that kind of person? Go away! " Then he turned his head and smiled apologetically, "Boss, I'm really sorry. The newcomer doesn't know any better. You are a great man and don't hold a grudge against me. It's absolutely safe here. You can rest assured and stay here. I will take care of everything. Come, come, let me send you up!"
The fat man was very good at talking. He resolved the misunderstanding with a few words and sent him to the guest room on the third floor. In order to express his apology, he specially sent a fruit supper.
After entering the room, Lu Yiwei locked the door and helped the heavy Xia Jinhe to the bed. Xia Jinhe leaned against the pillow, turned over, and lay there with his eyes closed. Lu Yiwei was hungry and thirsty. When he was about to pounce on him, the phone in Xia Jinhe's bag rang. It was like cold water was poured on Lu Yiwei's head, making him sober.
Xia Jinhe opened his eyes and used his hands to get the bag on the bedside table. He took out the phone and looked at it. Then, he operated it for a while, closed it, and put it in the bag. He saw Lu Yiwei standing there like a wooden stake, and he covered his mouth and laughed.
"Wait, I will go take a shower first!" Xia Jinhe knew what Lu Yiwei was thinking. He smiled and left.
Although the room was air-conditioned, it was still stuffy. Lu Yiwei lay on the bed and lit a cigarette. He picked up the remote control and turned on the TV. He was bored and flipped through the TV. Coincidentally, it happened to be the news of Deputy Governor Qiu Yuanhang's investigation of Chuangwei this afternoon.
The voice on the TV said, "Deputy Governor Qiu Yuanhang came to Jiefang Road, Tonghua Road, Tiantong River, and New City District to inspect and supervise the work of creating a provincial hygienic city in our city. Everywhere he went, he asked about the progress of the project in detail and asked for immediate rectification of the existing problems and shortcomings. He pointed out that Beizhou City's creation of a provincial hygienic city this year is a major livelihood project to improve the living environment, enhance the city's image, and improve the living standards of the people. He requested that the whole city should form a linkage mechanism and actively participate in this work. At the same time, the project should be completed as soon as possible. All projects must be completed by the end of October and accepted by the provincial Chuangwei assessment team. He stressed that the work of Chuangwei is not only a livelihood project, but also a political task. The leaders of the various counties and urban areas and units bear the main responsibility. Those who are ineffective in implementation and unreliable work should be held accountable … "
Lu Yiwei did not care about what the host said, but focused on who accompanied him. He saw the shadow of Guo Jinzhu, the Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, and also the figure of Li Hugang, the Director of the Municipal People's Congress. This unusual "combination" was very strange.
First of all, the Municipal People's Congress and the government were not on good terms. Why did Li Hugang participate in this survey? Secondly, Li Hugang was not in charge of Chuangwei work, but the Executive Deputy Mayor was in charge. Why did he accompany him? Thinking of the relationship between Li Hugang and Qiu Yuanhang, and connecting it with recent events, Lu Yiwei smelled something different. He felt that the purpose of Qiu Yuanhang's trip was not to investigate, but to use the investigation as an excuse to support Li Hugang.
At Tan Lao's house, Lu Yiwei heard some recent changes intermittently. He learned that Li Hugang played a trick of a cicada shedding its carapace. He was indignant and really admired this person's means. In this matter, the relationship between Ma Linhui and Nanyang had shifted to the struggle between Guo Jinzhu and Li Hugang, which was unexpected to him. He was a low-level official. How could he imagine how cruel the struggle in the high-level officialdom was? But through this incident, he seemed to understand something. The struggle between the low-level officials was small. The problem was obvious, and the means were clumsy. There was no artistry to speak of. The struggle between the high-level officials was relatively elegant. It was a game of wisdom and brains. On the surface, it was peaceful and harmonious, but in the dark, it was competing with each other. Whoever wanted to win depended on whose means were better.
Lu Yiwei judged by intuition that Guo Jinzhu was not Li Hugang's opponent. Guo Jinzhu could not hide things in his heart. He was too straightforward, and his good and bad were written on his face. On the contrary, Li Hugang was a smiling tiger. No matter what the occasion was, whether he was facing friends or opponents, he always had a smile on his face. He hid his shrewdness deeply. Based on his reaction after Ma Linhui's arrest, it was indeed admirable.
He divorced his wife, and then opened a company in his wife's name. Then, through various channels, he transferred the company to his daughter, who was already a Canadian citizen. This kind of trick was not something that ordinary people could think of, let alone do.
"Di di …" The phone in Xia Jinhe's bag rang again, interrupting Lu Yiwei's thoughts. Lu Yiwei looked sideways. He wanted to see who was texting Xia Jinhe, but he suppressed his curiosity and returned to the TV.
At this time, Xia Jinhe wrapped a bath towel and came out of the bathroom while drying his hair. He said, "Honey, I'm done. Hurry up and take a shower."
"Okay!" Lu Yiwei jumped out of bed like a carp and dashed to the bathroom to wash himself quickly. It took him less than three minutes to do so.
"You're done?" Xia Jinhe was still drying his hair. He stared at the naked Lu Yiwei with his eyes wide open.
