There was a thermos flask in the bag Ni Jiali was carrying. Ni Jiali picked up the thermos flask and said, "Mayor Chen, I cooked a pot of chicken soup at home this morning. It's too much for me to finish, so I brought some over."
Chen Xing didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard that it was chicken soup. Director Ni, you can drink it yourself. Why did you bring it for me?
I can't finish it myself. Moreover, Mayor Chen, you're working so hard. Your family isn't here and you don't have anyone to take care of you. You're the mayor, and your health concerns the well-being of over seven million people in Rivertown. So you have to take care of your body from time to time. Ni Jiali smiled.
Ms. Ni, do you think that I look weak to you? Chen Xing found it funny.
Mayor Chen, I didn't mean it that way. I meant that you have to take care of your body since you're working so hard. Ni Jiali smiled. She took out a small pot from the kitchen and poured the chicken soup out.
Upon seeing this, Chen Xing took a step forward and held her hand. Director Ni, there's really no need for that.
Mayor Chen, it's just a bowl of chicken soup. Why are you so polite with me? Are you afraid that I'll bribe you? If it's a bowl of chicken soup as a bribe, I'll bring it back immediately. Ni Jiali smiled mischievously.
Since Ni Jiali said so, Chen Xing couldn't forcefully stop her. He couldn't possibly say that bringing a bowl of chicken soup for him was a bribe. Moreover, it was meaningless for them to keep pushing the responsibility.
Mayor Chen, you're holding my hand.
As Chen Xing was thinking about it, Ni Jiali spoke. Her face was a little red. Chen Xing immediately let go of her hand. He was busy rejecting her and didn't notice that he was holding her hand. After thinking about it carefully, Chen Xing was secretly impressed by Ni Jiali's skin. It was just as white and smooth as it looked.
Ni Jiali continued to pour out the chicken soup from the thermos flask. The thermos flask wasn't big, but it was a small pot. Mayor Chen, you can have some of this in the morning and some more in the evening.
Ms. Ni, I think you've sent me half a chicken, right? Chen Xing glanced at the chicken in the pot. Apart from the chicken legs and chicken wings, some of the better parts of the chicken were also given to him.
No, I bought two free-range chickens to stew. There's still a big pot at home. Ni Jiali smiled.
Hearing her words, Chen Xing nodded his head and thanked Ms. Ni for her concern.
Mayor Chen doesn't have to be so polite with me. You work hard for over seven million people in Rivertown. As a member of the people, I do my best to do something small for Mayor Chen. That's also indirectly making a small contribution to Rivertown. Ni Jiali said with a smile.
Chen Xing had to admit that Ni Jiali was very good at speaking. Her words made people feel comfortable and couldn't find any fault with them. However, it wasn't strange. As a Deputy General Manager of a hotel in Rivertown, she had to receive all kinds of people all day long, including many government officials. If she was not good at speaking, she wouldn't be able to stay in this position.
After Ni Jiali poured out the chicken soup, she went to heat it up for Chen Xing. Chen Xing could only smile helplessly. It seemed that he had to drink this bowl of chicken soup.
Mayor Chen, why don't you drink all the chicken soup? I'll ask the waiter not to send you breakfast in the morning.
Don't, I'll just drink a little first. Chen Xing shook his head and smiled. He really couldn't resist such an enthusiastic person.
Soon, a bowl of steaming chicken soup was served to Chen Xing. This was Ni Jiali's small bowl. Chen Xing looked away when Ni Jiali was busy. Because Ni Jiali bent down, the collar of her shirt fell down. Chen Xing saw something he shouldn't have seen at first glance.
Mayor Chen, drink it while it's hot. Ni Jiali smiled.
Okay, leave it. I'll do it myself. Chen Xing waved his hand. It felt weird to drink chicken soup so early in the morning.
After drinking a bowl of chicken soup, Chen Xing chatted with Ni Jiali for a while. Time passed quickly. At 7: 30 am, Chen Xing went downstairs. Miao Yuanliang's car was waiting on time. Yu Zhiyuan was also waiting beside the car.
Ni Jiali followed Chen Xing downstairs and sent Chen Xing to the car. Watching Chen Xing's car drive away, Ni Jiali still stood there.
Ms. Ni, you're getting closer and closer to Mayor Chen. I'm so envious. In the hall, a middle-aged man walked out.
Ni Jiali glanced at him. He was the manager of the hotel's customer service department. Ni Jiali curled her lips and said, "Manager Wang, if you think Mayor Chen is so easy to get close to, you can go and get close to him.
Ha, I'm a man. I don't have that ability. You're a woman. You have an advantage. Besides, you're in charge of Mayor Chen's daily life. You're the closest to him. " The man smiled.
Listening to the man's sarcastic words, Ni Jiali rolled her eyes. She didn't want to talk to him and walked away in her high heels.
The working hours of the day began soon. As usual, Chen Xing dealt with the most important documents of the day. After that, he listened to the work reports. The people in charge of the departments directly under the municipal government or the main leaders of the counties and cities under the jurisdiction of Jiang City came one after another according to the appointment time.
Chen Xing didn't go out in the morning. He listened to the work reports of several departments. It was not until 11 am that Chen Xing could take a breather.
At 11: 05 am, the director of the Municipal Bureau, Zheng Zhongqiang, was coming. However, until 11 am, Yu Zhiyuan didn't see Zheng Zhongqiang at the door.
Looking at the time from time to time, Yu Zhiyuan couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. Zheng Zhongqiang's appointment had been arranged yesterday. Normally, when these junior cadres came to report to the mayor, they would come at least ten minutes earlier than the appointment time. That way, their attitude could be regarded as correct. It was really rare for people to come in a hurry when the appointment time was up. Usually, it was the subordinates waiting for the leaders. Who dared to let the leaders wait for the subordinates?
Seeing that Zheng Zhongqiang hadn't come in a minute or two, Yu Zhiyuan couldn't help but take out his mobile phone to call Zheng Zhongqiang.
The phone rang twice, and the other side quickly answered. Director Zheng, didn't you make an appointment to meet the mayor at 11: 05 am? Is there any delay?
Yu Zhiyuan asked tactfully. He didn't directly ask why Zheng Zhongqiang hadn't come yet. Although Zheng Zhongqiang, the director, didn't have the title of deputy mayor, the Public Security Bureau was a big bureau after all, and its status was also higher than that of ordinary departments. Even if Zheng Zhongqiang didn't hold the position of deputy mayor, he had entered the leading group of the Municipal Government and was a member of the leading group of the Municipal Government. Therefore, Yu Zhiyuan was also polite to Zheng Zhongqiang.
"Secretary Yu, I'll be here soon. Something big happened today. The Municipal Bureau is in a mess. I've been busy until now." On the phone, Zheng Zhongqiang smiled helplessly.
"Okay, then I'll talk to Mayor Chen later." Yu Zhiyuan nodded. Zheng Zhongqiang's words meant that he was going to be late.
