Hu Guoan's laughter was deliberately loud, causing the leaders who were toasting each other to look over at Liu Lihai. Leng Hongyan hadn't drunk the fake bottle of mineral water yet, so when she saw Hu Guoan making fun of Liu Lihai, she walked over with her glass.
If Leng Hongyan didn't come over, Liu Lihai would accompany Hu Guoan and play along. When she came over, not only did she attract the attention of others, but Wu Haotian also walked over with his glass of wine. In this way, Hu Guoan and Liu Lihai really became the focus of everyone's attention.
Liu Lihai secretly groaned, but he couldn't let Leng Hongyan ignore the matter between him and Hu Guoan. In this drinking scene, it was easy to solve the matter between men. Once a woman came in, even if it was a female leader, the men couldn't lose face. And under the stimulation of alcohol, this style of wanting to save face would be carried out to the extreme.
"Chief Hu, are you going to use guns and knives?" Liu Lihai looked at Hu Guoan with a critical gaze.
"Alcohol quality is a person's character. Director Liu, do you want us to follow the principle of economizing and change to mineral water?" Hu Guoan's voice rose a few degrees, looking like he was going to make a big deal out of this.
"Does the National Security Bureau Chief want to drink?" Leng Hongyan stood in front of Hu Guoan and looked at him with a charming smile.
"Mayor Leng's wine, even if I'm passed out, I'll still drink it without blinking." Hu Guoan didn't look at Liu Lihai anymore and continued Leng Hongyan's words.
"Okay, come, let's have a toast. National Security Bureau Chief, do you want to test the wine in my glass? " Leng Hongyan still had a smile on her face, but her words were already biased towards Liu Lihai and wanted Liu Lihai to back out.
However, Liu Lihai didn't want to back out, and continued Leng Hongyan's words, "Mayor, this glass of wine is a toast to Chief Hu, I'll drink it." As he said this, he snatched the large glass of wine from Leng Hongyan's hand and drank it in one gulp.
Wu Haotian also came over and looked at Liu Lihai with a smile, "Young people are indeed different, this wine was well done. State Security, it's all up to you now, it's all about you. "
Hu Guoan looked at Wu Haotian with a smile and said, "The Secretary is here too. When it comes to drinking, I always fight with real swords and guns. Mayor Leng, do you want to test my wine? "
Hu Guoan turned to Leng Hongyan, and Leng Hongyan was extremely uncomfortable, but when Liu Lihai was filling the bottle with mineral water, she also took a bottle of wine, so Hu Guoan must have seen it long ago. After all, he had followed Wu Haotian for many years, and he had always been working on the side of the Public Security Bureau. His sharp eyes were probably not something that she and Liu Lihai could compare to. She and Liu Lihai could only blame themselves for being too careless. They didn't expect that their every move was under their surveillance.
"Of course I believe in the National Security Bureau Chief's alcohol tolerance. With the Secretary checking, everyone can drink to their heart's content. Anyway, I won't go home until I'm drunk tonight. "As she said this, Leng Hongyan signaled the waiter to bring her wine, and was ready to toast all the leaders present.
Leng Hongyan was obviously changing the topic, and Wu Haotian and Hu Guoan would give her a way out. They would not be ruthless to a woman in front of so many people.
"Since Mayor Hongyan is in the mood to drink, come, us men, let's toast to our goddess." Wu Haotian took the lead to lead the topic to Leng Hongyan.
Liu Lihai had just vomited, and now that he drank such a big glass of wine, his stomach felt extremely uncomfortable. He wanted to hold it in, but his stomach refused to listen to him. He didn't care if Hu Guoan drank or not, and ran out. But before he reached the door, there was a crash, and it was a live broadcast.
This was a big disgrace, and an unpleasant smell suddenly spread in the private room. Leng Hongyan was also coaxed by Wu Haotian, and drank two more glasses. She was not as good at drinking as the men, and when she smelled the strange smell, her stomach suddenly turned upside down. She had no choice but to look at Wu Haotian and say: "Secretary, let me go, I can't, I …" Before she finished, Leng Hongyan had no choice but to leave everyone present, and rushed out of the private room.
Because Leng Hongyan and Liu Lihai were teased to this point, Wu Haotian pretended to be a good person and said: "Mayor Hongyan and Director Lihai are not good at drinking, let's call it a day. Come, on behalf of the Municipal Party Committee, I thank all my colleagues who came to support us, I'll drink first. "Saying that, Wu Haotian really drank a big glass of wine, and he drank it very heroically.
This drinking finally ended with Leng Hongyan and Liu Lihai making a fool of themselves in front of everyone, but the person who was the most upset was Yao Haidong. He originally wanted to remind Liu Lihai to be careful, but he didn't expect that Liu Lihai thought he was smart, and drank a glass of mineral water to toast. This kind of occasion, how could he fake it? In this way, he and Leng Hongyan lost so completely in the first round of competition.
Sure enough, after the banquet ended, Leng Hongyan left Jingjiang Hotel with the help of his secretary Ran Bingbing. Yao Haidong originally wanted to talk to Liu Lihai, but he was called by Wu Haotian to serve the old leaders.
Liu Lihai, on the other hand, was in an awkward silence. When Leng Hongyan left, he left Jingjiang Hotel with his tail between his legs.
Because he was returning to Jingjiang, Liu Lihai didn't ask to stay in the dormitory, but directly stayed at home. Not only was his stomach uncomfortable, but his heart was also stuffy, so when he got home, when his mother saw him drunk like this, she said lovingly: "Can't you drink less?"
Liu Lihai poured all the wine on his mother, looked at her and said: "Do you think I want to drink? Do you think it's easy to get along in the scene? Other people have their father to compete with, other than wine, health, what else can I compete with! "
After Liu Lihai said that, he didn't look at his mother, went back to his room, and fell asleep. When he went to work the next day, he met Mayor Liu Jianping in the elevator. He smiled and said hello to Mayor Liu Jianping, and Mayor Liu Jianping nodded and responded faintly, then ignored him.
After Liu Lihai returned to his office, he called Yao Haidong. The moment the call went through, Yao Haidong said: "I'm very busy now, I'll look for you when I'm free." After saying that, he hung up. He knew that his performance last night must have been terrible.
As soon as Liu Lihai hung up, Zhu Dejiang chased after him and said: "Brother, is Mayor Leng trying to use me to establish his authority?"
Zhu Dejiang's words confused Liu Lihai, so he asked: "What do you mean?"
"Liang Guang is my subordinate, he arrested me under orders, and I was also framed. Also, I was framed. It's a long story. I'll tell you about it when I have the chance. But he just called and said that the higher-ups are very concerned about my case, and those who go out to eat, drink, and gamble will all be fired. I asked him who the higher-ups are, and he hesitated for a long time before saying that Mayor Leng wants me to be severely punished. Brother, is that not the case? "Although Zhu Dejiang was asking Liu Lihai, it was obvious that he was very emotional.
Liu Lihai quickly said: "Brother Zhu, don't worry about this, I'll go ask the mayor first, and I'll get back to you immediately if there's any result."
"Okay, thank you, brother." Zhu Dejiang said and hung up.
Liu Lihai had no choice but to rush to Leng Hongyan's office, except for Ran Bingbing who was helping Leng Hongyan sort out the documents, Leng Hongyan was not in the office.
Liu Lihai asked Ran Bingbing: "Where's the mayor?"
"The mayor is sick, he's resting at home." Ran Bingbing looked up and saw that it was Liu Lihai, so he said with a smile.
"Why is he sick at this time? She shouldn't have tried to show off last night. "Liu Lihai mumbled.
Ran Bingbing didn't reply to Liu Lihai, but looked at him seriously. He wanted to ask Ran Bingbing why he was looking at him like that. But he couldn't talk to Ran Bingbing about Zhu Dejiang's matter, so he turned around and left Ran Bingbing to go back to his office.
Liu Lihai paced around the office, and after thinking about it, he decided to call Hu Guoan. Once the call was connected, he said politely: "Hello, Chief Hu."
"Oh, it's Director Liu. You're going to burn me first after taking office, right?" Hu Guoan asked with a smile on the phone.
"Chief Hu, don't make fun of me. I really can't hold my liquor. I apologize to Chief Hu for what happened last night. When you're not busy, I'll definitely prepare a drink to apologize in person, "Liu Lihai had to let go of his hatred for Hu Guoan and said in a flattering manner.
"Haha, I have to drink Housekeeper Liu's liquor no matter how busy I am." Hu Guoan was so excited that he began to call Liu Lihai Housekeeper Liu. Presumably, in Jingjiang, he was now Leng Hongyan's housekeeper.
"Chief Hu, you're teasing me again. I'm young and insensible. Please give me more advice and criticism in the future." Liu Lihai continued to flatter him.
"You're a top student from a famous university. How can an uneducated man like me give you any advice? I don't deserve to be criticized. "Hu Guoan was still smiling, but his words implied that he wanted to push Liu Lihai away by a hundred feet.
Liu Lihai felt that it was meaningless to beat around the bush, so he asked directly, "Chief Hu, does the bureau have any opinions on how to deal with Brother Zhu Dejiang's matter?"
"About this, about this, I just asked. It's said that Mayor Leng has a rule that we can't practice favoritism and fraud because of him. Secretary Haotian said that since Mayor Leng wants to establish the style of Jingjiang's cadres, he must support Mayor Leng's work as the secretary. He requested us to rectify the style of the police officers. If the police officers are prostitutes and gamblers, how are we going to carry out the work of cracking down on prostitution? If this goes on, the police officers will become the umbrella of the gangs. What will the people think of us? Are we still the police officers who serve the people? Once this nature is brought into line, the problem will be huge. So, Director Liu, I want to help Dejiang now. He's also my brother, but I don't dare to commit crimes in the face of the storm. So, regarding Dejiang's punishment, we've discussed it and decided to do it according to Mayor Leng's request. We've decided to punish him severely.
And today, I want to establish a righteous spirit in the police department. Whoever dares to do such despicable things again, I'll be the first to not forgive him! " As Hu Guoan spoke, he started to scold his mother. It was as if he was a righteous spirit and could not tolerate the police officers gambling and prostitutes.
