Division Chief Jiang and Director Wang saw Cao Jin walk straight toward Zhuang Cheng and Yao Na.
They couldn't help but feel shocked. Could it be that these two young cadres of the Tan Zhou Finance Bureau were still in contact with Director Cao?
The two of them thought of their resentful words just now and couldn't help but feel a little regretful. In fact, they were all people in the system, and most of the time, they were harmonious. However, today, the two of them were really angry because of Xia Ruofei's words. In addition, Zhuang Cheng and Yao Na were young cadres with very low levels, so they couldn't help but vent their anger on them.
Division Chief Jiang and Director Wang looked at each other and walked toward Zhuang Cheng and Yao Na. On the one hand, they hoped to get close to Cao Jin, and on the other hand, they hoped to ease their relationship with Zhuang Cheng and his wife.
On this side, Zhuang Cheng and Yao Na's attention was all on Cao Jin. Naturally, they also noticed that Cao Jin was walking straight toward them.
The two of them couldn't help but feel a little excited. They also thought in their hearts, "Does Director Cao still remember us?"
The more they thought about it, the more they felt that it was possible. On the eve of the Spring Festival, Cao Jin had accompanied Song Zhengping to inspect the Tan Zhou Finance Bureau. At that time, Yao Na, as a staff member of the bureau, had participated in the reception work, and Zhuang Cheng had also participated in a small discussion.
Yao Na even imagined that Cao Jin had a deep impression of her because of her good looks. She was still very confident in her looks. At least in the Tan Zhou Finance Bureau, she was considered a flower.
Therefore, as Cao Jin got closer and closer, Yao Na couldn't help but reach out to tidy up her hair and try to show what she thought was her most charming smile.
Zhuang Cheng also quickly straightened his back and stared at Cao Jin intently, as if waiting for the highest leader to come and meet him.
As Cao Jin got closer and closer, the two of them became more and more excited.
There was no mistake. Director Cao was really walking toward them!
When Cao Jin came over, the two of them naturally showed a humble smile and, like Division Chief Jiang and Director Wang, also reached out their hands from afar.
Seeing the smile on Cao Jin's face, the two of them became even more excited. Not only did Director Cao come over to talk to them, but his attitude was also so kind. What a great honor!
They even saw Division Chief Jiang and Director Wang coming over from the corner of their eyes. They felt even more elated. Just a moment ago, they felt as if their parents had died and their future was bleak, but now they felt as if there was a light at the end of the tunnel.
However, as soon as Cao Jin spoke, the smiles on Zhuang Cheng and Yao's faces suddenly froze.
Cao Jin said with some respect, "Mr. Xia!"
Mr. … Mr. Xia? Zhuang Cheng and Yao Na's hearts skipped a beat. At this moment, Cao Jin had already walked past them, completely treating them as air.
The two of them turned their heads with great difficulty and saw a scene that they would never forget.
Cao's Cao's's's's's's's's''s, he's...
Then, they saw a faint smile on Xia Ruofei's face as she gently said, "Hello, Secretary Cao!"
't ''t's.. He........ ........... '' '' '''s..... Cao Jin was the No. 1 secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, and he was also the deputy director of the Provincial Party Committee Office.
It was a common practice in the system to call him "Director Cao". Even the leaders of the Provincial Party Committee, unless they were very senior, would probably call him "Little Cao". Most of the others would also call him "Director Cao".
If he was called "Secretary Cao," Cao Jin might not hold a grudge, but he would definitely feel uncomfortable in his heart.
However, Zhuang Cheng and Yao Na didn't show any displeasure when they saw Cao Jin. Instead, they became more respectful.
Cao Jin smiled and said, "Mr. Xia, I just finished working overtime, so I wanted to visit you and find out if you need any service during your stay in Tanzhou."
After hearing this, Zhuang Cheng, Yao Na, Division Chief Jiang, and Director Wang almost fell over.
Secretary Cao actually took the initiative to visit, and his attitude was so humble! What on earth did this young man do?
Director Wang and Division Chief Jiang's faces were a little pale. When they thought of their attitude towards Xia Ruofei just now, they felt a chill in their hearts.
Zhuang Cheng and Yao Na were completely dumbfounded. Their minds were almost blank.
Director Jiang also remembered that Yao Na seemed to have casually introduced these two people as Xu Yuanyuan's college classmates and that they were from the countryside.
It was because of this preconceived notion that they felt so superior in front of Xia Ruofei and spoke so arrogantly. He didn't expect that he would unknowingly offend such a big shot.
Thinking of this, Director Jiang couldn't help but look at Zhuang Cheng and Yao Na with a trace of coldness.
"These two people are going to get me killed today …" Director Jiang secretly gritted his teeth.
Xia Ruofei naturally didn't care about the reactions of Zhuang Cheng and the others. He smiled and said, "Secretary Cao, you're too polite! We're just here to take a look. You're so busy with work, so you don't have to specially come! "
Cao Jin hurriedly said humbly, "This is my job. Mr. Xia, you don't have to be so polite!"
"Then, Secretary Cao, why don't you come back to the room with us?" Xia Ruofei said.
"Of course!" Cao Jin hurriedly said.
This time, he had specially come to visit Xia Ruofei because he knew how much Song Zhengping valued Xia Ruofei. In the afternoon, Song Zhengping had specifically ordered that if Xia Ruofei contacted him, he should try his best to satisfy any needs of Xia Ruofei.
Therefore, after Cao Jin accompanied Song Zhengping to a meeting and sent him home, he hurriedly ate some dinner and rushed to the hotel.
Xia Ruofei and Song Wei had taken Song Zhengping's car back to the hotel at noon, so Cao Jin didn't need to ask at all. He only needed to ask Song Zhengping's driver.
At this time, Xia Ruofei seemed to suddenly remember and said, "Oh right, Secretary Cao, let me introduce you to two friends!"
"This is Xu Yuanyuan. She is Song Wei's university classmate. This is Xu Yuanyuan's husband, Zhuang Yan." Xia Ruofei said, "These two work in Tanzhou City's Cultural Relics Bureau."
Then Xia Ruofei said, "Zhuang Yan, Xu Yuanyuan, this is Cao Jin. He works in the Provincial Party Committee's General Office!"
When Song Wei saw Xia Ruofei's expression, he couldn't help but feel a little funny.
They had clearly just discussed to let Cao Jin help to ask about Xu Yuanyuan's matter, but Xia Ruofei seemed to have just remembered.
Cao Jin didn't put on airs at all. He smiled and said, "Hello!"
"Secretary … Secretary Cao, hello!" Xu Yuanyuan said.
She didn't know Cao Jin's position. After hesitating for a while, she could only follow the way Xia Ruofei addressed him just now.
Cao Jin naturally didn't have any displeasure. He shook hands with them very gently and said, "We all work in Tanzhou. If the two of you have any difficulties in the future and need help, you can call me!"
Cao Jin certainly understood the intention of Xia Ruofei to introduce these two people, so he also expressed his attitude very straightforwardly on the spot.
Zhuang Cheng and Yao Na on the side were so envious that they were going crazy. Xu Yuanyuan obviously didn't realize how precious Cao Jin's attitude was. She thought it was just a casual remark.
So Xu Yuanyuan wasn't very excited. She just said politely, "Thank you, Secretary Cao!"
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Secretary Cao, speaking of which, Yuanyuan really has a small matter that may need to trouble you."
"Oh? Please say it! "Cao Jin said without hesitation," I will do my best to do it! "
Cao Jin couldn't wait to have the opportunity to help. His predecessor had served Song Zhengping for many years. After Song Zhengping was promoted from the position of a governor, his predecessor was also smoothly demoted and directly entered the standing committee of a prefecture-level city. Cao Jin also got the opportunity to take over.
However, Cao Jin hadn't been with Song Zhengping for very long. Usually, he was like walking on thin ice at work, afraid that the chief wouldn't be satisfied.
If he could guarantee Xia Ruofei's service, it would undoubtedly be a huge plus.
Xu Yuanyuan then came back to her senses. Could it be that this Secretary Cao could help her with the postgraduate entrance exam? Wasn't he in the general office of the provincial party committee? And he was just a secretary. Could he be in charge of Tanzhou's Cultural Relics Bureau?
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "It's like this. Yuanyuan is a top student who graduated from Beijing University. Now, she hopes to take the postgraduate entrance exam while retaining her staff. However, her working years may not meet the requirements of the work unit, so she is stuck …"
At this time, a hurried voice interrupted Xia Ruofei's words. "Mr. Xia, Comrade Xu Yuanyuan's postgraduate entrance exam won't have any problems! I will immediately coordinate and implement it! "
The person who spoke was Director Wang.
He and Director Jiang had been listening for a long time. Seeing that Xia Ruofei had indeed directly mentioned this matter to Cao Jin, Director Wang was afraid that Xia Ruofei would also mention that he had accepted the banquet invitation but didn't do anything, so he hurriedly took the initiative to express his opinion.
Cao Jin was listening carefully to Xia Ruofei's words. He didn't expect someone to interrupt him halfway, so he was a little unhappy in his heart.
However, he didn't know the relationship between Xia Ruofei and this person, so he didn't show it. He just asked lightly, "You are?"
Director Wang quickly said, "Director Cao, hello! I am Wang Yaokun, the deputy director of Tanzhou City's Cultural Bureau … "
"Oh, it's Director Wang …" Cao Jin said lightly.
One was a deputy director, and the other was a secretary. It seemed that there was a big difference in status, but in fact, it was the opposite. Cao Jin, the secretary, was a real deputy director, while Wang Yaokun was just a deputy in a government office in the lower city. His rank was only deputy director, so Cao Jin naturally didn't need to be too enthusiastic.
At this time, Xia Ruofei said, "Director Wang, do you know that it is very impolite to interrupt others?"
Wang Yaokun suddenly looked embarrassed, and Cao Jin seemed to have noticed a hint of subtlety. His eyes began to turn cold.
The Cultural Bureau was the management unit of the Cultural Relics Bureau. Wang Yaokun, as a member of the leadership of the Cultural Bureau, could naturally easily handle Xu Yuanyuan's postgraduate entrance exam. However, Wang Yaokun's sudden appearance at this time made Cao Jin read some different information.
Wang Yaokun said very fearfully, "Mr. Xia, I was wrong just now. I shouldn't have interrupted you, but … I also want to solve the problem for Comrade Xu Yuanyuan as soon as possible …"
Xia Ruofei was still the same Xia Ruofei just now. His tone was also very impolite, but in Wang Yaokun's eyes, it was completely different.
The tone of the "country boy" just now only made Wang Yaokun feel that this person didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth. Now, even Director Cao had to treat "Mr. Xia" with respect. This was the most reasonable way of speaking. If he was polite to everyone and didn't have any temper, it would be abnormal.
"Director Wang didn't say that just now, right?" Xia Ruofei said, "I remember you said that this matter was not easy to handle, that it violated the principles, and that it would even cause chaos in the unit …"
Wang Yaokun's forehead was oozing with sweat. The words he said to Xu Yuanyuan just now were all returned to him by Xia Ruofei, and it was in front of Cao Jin.
Cao Jin had been in the system for so many years, and he had been polished by big organizations. How could he not know what had happened when he heard this?
He glanced at Wang Yaokun and said lightly, "In that case, there is no need to trouble Director Wang with this matter. I will call Comrade Zheng Jianming later and ask him to consider Xu Yuanyuan's actual situation and approve her application for the postgraduate entrance examination!"
Zheng Jianming was the head of the Municipal Bureau of Cultural Affairs, and Wang Yaokun's immediate boss.
Wang Yaokun's forehead was full of sweat, and he was regretting it. If he had known that Xu Yuanyuan had such a strong background, he wouldn't have been so reserved. It was originally a matter that could be solved with a phone call, but now there was a big problem.
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Yuanyuan, why don't you thank Secretary Cao?"
Xu Yuanyuan quickly said, "Thank you Cao … Director Cao!"
Xu Yuanyuan didn't have much work experience in the system, but her EQ wasn't low. She saw that even Director Wang was so respectful to Cao Jin, and Yao Na and Zhuang Cheng, who were always arrogant, were completely reduced to background. They didn't even dare to breathe loudly. How could she not know that Cao Jin's identity was definitely not ordinary? Since he had spoken, he would definitely be able to help her with this matter.
Moreover, she heard Wang Yaokun call Cao Jin "Director Cao," so she naturally didn't dare to call him Secretary Cao like Xia Ruofei did.
Cao Jin said with a smile, "It's nothing. If Yuanyuan can be admitted to Beijing University as a postgraduate student, it will also be good for the construction of the unit! For a special talent like you, special things should be done specially. How can you stick to the rules? "
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but secretly laugh. The leader's words were really good. No matter whether it was positive or negative, he could say something reasonable, and it was impossible for people to refute.
"Secretary Cao, let's not stand here and talk. Let's go to the room and have a seat!" Xia Ruofei said.
"Yes, Yuanyuan and Zhuang Yan should also go upstairs and sit for a while!" Song Wei said with a smile.
So the group of people walked towards the elevator, leaving Zhuang Cheng, Yao Na, and the others looking at each other. They stood there, feeling uneasy. If they just left like this, their hearts would be in a mess …
Xia Ruofei saw that Yao Na and the others wanted to follow them but didn't dare to. He whispered a few words to Cao Jin and asked Song Wei to lead them upstairs first.
