As soon as Liu Lihai hung up the phone with Qi Qiang, another call came in. The phone was the landline number of Lin County. Liu Lihai couldn't guess who was calling. When he pressed the answer button, the other party was laughing on the phone. Liu Lihai thought the laughter was familiar, but he couldn't guess who it was at once, so he asked, "Who are you looking for?"
"My Great Mayor Du, I haven't seen you for a few years, and you have become more and more charming. How can you even forget your old classmates?" After being rebuked by the other party, Liu Lihai quickly searched for his classmates in Lin County in his mind. Qin Hong's tall and handsome face appeared in front of him, which made his thoughts suddenly go back to his high school days. Coincidentally, he and Qin Hong sat at the same table for two years. Perhaps there was no deeper relationship than that of a classmate sitting at the same table. Qin Hong always looked indifferent, and his favorite words were: "Even if the sky falls, there is Liu Lihai to support it. What is he afraid of?" Since graduating from high school, he went to Beijing and lost contact with his classmates. He didn't expect that as soon as he appeared on TV, a classmate would come to him. He really wanted to see Qin Hong. In this strange small county that made him depressed, he met such an intimate classmate. It could be regarded as God's comfort! For some reason, as soon as the word comfort came out, Liu Lihai felt hurt again. This feeling was so real, so shocking that he couldn't attend to one thing and lose sight of the other.
"Qin Hong, where are you? Don't make sarcastic remarks. Let's go drink now. " Qin Hong probably didn't expect that Liu Lihai would call out his name at once. He was silent for a moment, and then said straightforwardly, "Tell me where you live, and I will pick you up."
Liu Lihai lived in the government guest house. It was said that the government guest house had a long history. The chairman of Lin County also stayed here when he came back, and several central leaders stayed here when they came to Lin County. In fact, there was a very nice name here, called "Liu Lian Zhu Yuan."
It was said that it was a house left behind by a scholar surnamed Liu in Lin County, who returned to Lin County to retire after serving as an official in the capital for many years. The house was surrounded by bamboos, some of which were as thick as buckets. The entire house was covered in a bamboo forest. There were two century-old pines in the middle of the house. They had been manicured layer by layer and were growing vigorously, as if they were hiding the prosperity of the Liu Family. This was especially true for the two-story wooden building, which had been renovated into guest rooms one after another, extending the quaint and fragrant atmosphere to the present. As soon as Liu Lihai walked in, a sense of simplicity greeted him. It was so tranquil, so tranquil that it made people feel like they were cultivating their mind and living in retirement. This kind of feeling could easily make people forget about reality, forget about officialdom, and even forget about the struggle. This was probably the reason why the chairman of Lin County and the central government leaders who came to Lin County for inspection liked to live here.
This place was basically not open to the public. It was basically a back garden to welcome leaders of all levels. It was just that after the Tri-Color Lake was created, the large-scale reception was usually done in the Tri-Color Lake. Compared to the Tri-Color Lake, Liu Lihai preferred this place. He heard that Liu Shouwang was also staying here. As for which room Liu Shouwang was staying in, Liu Lihai had not yet asked. He had not thought of a better plan to get close to Liu Shouwang. Besides, he had only been in Lin County for two days, so he was not in a hurry to know Liu Shouwang's room.
Liu Lihai did not know when Liu Lihai's Bamboo Garden was changed into a government guest house. When he told Qin Hong that he was staying in the government guest house, Qin Hong said "oh" and said, "Liu Lihai's Bamboo Garden, I know. I'll be there in five minutes."
When Liu Lihai was waiting for Qin Hong, Gong Daojin called. He was actually very polite to Liu Lihai. He asked Liu Lihai if he was used to the guest house. If he was not used to it, he could stay in the Tri-Color Lake. The environment there was more suitable for young people. He also said that he did not expect Liu Lihai to be so handsome on TV. As soon as Gong Yue finished watching TV, she called him and said that Liu Lihai was very handsome. She also said that Gong Yue's mother also said that it was the first time that she had seen such a handsome boy.
Liu Lihai was at a loss because of Gong Daojin's politeness and praise. Fortunately, Gong Daojin did not say this in front of him. If he praised his looks in front of him, he would definitely feel ashamed. He was really afraid of others praising his looks. He was not a woman, so he did not need such a handsome face. However, if he did not have this handsome face, would Leng Hongyan like him? Would Gong Yue put her fake love plan on him? Would Gong Daojin be so polite to him? However, when he was praised by a man, and Gong Daojin, who was unpredictable to Liu Lihai, like this, he had a very sad feeling, as if he completely relied on this face to get to the top.
Fortunately, after Gong Daojin praised Liu Lihai's looks, he changed the topic, and his voice was so low that Liu Lihai could feel some kind of helplessness and depression. He said, "Xiao Yu feels very good about you. Whether you like her or not, I have to entrust Xiao Yu to you. As long as you can pull her back, I am willing to do anything. I am still outside with guests. When I am free, I will ask Xiao Yu to call you. Come to my house for dinner, and we can have a good talk. "After that, he did not wait for Liu Lihai to speak, and he hung up the phone.
Liu Lihai filtered Gong Daojin's words from beginning to end. He thought that Gong Yue must have deliberately acted at home that she liked Liu Lihai, so that Gong Daojin would think so highly of him. Gong Daojin should have no other purpose. If he could really use Gong Yue to find out the details of Gong Daojin, it should be a great thing for his position in Lin County. However, if one day, Gong Daojin found out that he was deceiving him, what should he do?
Liu Lihai was now faced with a gamble, the outcome was unpredictable, and this gamble could not be known by Leng Hongyan. If Leng Hongyan knew that he was going on a blind date as soon as he came, he could not guarantee that Leng Hongyan would not do something more outrageous than Gong Daojin. Once a woman was angry, it was quite terrible.
Although Liu Lihai had not met this side of Leng Hongyan, he still vaguely knew that Leng Hongyan did not want him to stay in Lin County for too long. Leng Hongyan had analyzed the state of Lin County, saying that the state of Lin County was conducive to Liu Lihai's achievements, so that he could shorten the time he spent at the grassroots level and return to Jingjiang as soon as possible. In the end, Leng Hongyan still wanted him to stay under her watch. But he was not reconciled. Since he had been on the road, he wanted to have his own sky in Lin County.
Thinking of this, Liu Lihai decided to gamble. If he won, he could confidently go to Sun Xiaomu; if he lost, he could go back to Beijing. Besides, everything had its pros and cons. Thinking that he was still young, there was still a way to go if he failed, and he could still make up for it. The way back would not be so miserable, so he could run forward without hesitation. This was the advantage of being young. If he failed, he could try again. "Put yourself on the edge of death and live again." Liu Lihai thought of this sentence. The highest realm of life was condensed in these words. Thinking of this, he was a hundred times more energetic. After all, the officialdom was an iron camp and a flowing army. One day, it would be the 80's generation who took on the main force. Just like the water of the Yangtze River, the waves behind always pushed the waves ahead. This was the law. Thinking clearly about the law of life and finding the most suitable law that belonged to oneself, success would belong to oneself. Liu Lihai firmly believed in this.
The arrival of Qin Hong interrupted these thoughts of Liu Lihai. As soon as the two old classmates met, they gave each other a punch. Qin Hong did not change much. He still had the same indifferent attitude, but there was more maturity and confidence in his expression. It was no wonder that he was in his thirties. It was impossible for him to imagine the wonderful outside world all day like when he was in high school.
After expressing the joy of meeting each other, Qin Hong looked at Liu Lihai and said, "I didn't expect that there would be a county cadre among our classmates, and he is actually in my hometown. At the moment when I was watching TV, I was too excited. I was afraid that I had recognized the wrong person, so I deliberately went to the side of the TV to watch. As a result, I was scolded by my wife. She insisted that I had taken a fancy to that female news anchor, and no matter what I said, she wouldn't let me go out. See, we only came out after a fight. Although I was late, we are still brothers. Let's go, let's not go home until we are drunk. "
As Qin Hong spoke, he stood on his tiptoes and patted Liu Lihai's shoulder. He was a head shorter than Liu Lihai and a few months older than Liu Lihai. He always liked to call himself a big brother, but Qin Hong's action was very natural, as if he was patting his own younger brother's shoulder.
Liu Lihai was a little touched. Other than such intimate actions between classmates, it was probably difficult to encounter such intimacy in the officialdom. For Liu Lihai, who was an only child, having an older brother and older sister was what he had always wanted. A child growing up alone was probably difficult for parents to understand, so this generation was especially close to their classmates. If it was not for the fact that he had gone to Beijing to work hard for his career, he would definitely hope to get together with his classmates more often.
Perhaps Qin Hong must have the same idea as Liu Lihai, but this idea had little to do with whether he was the county magistrate or not. Therefore, Liu Lihai and Qin Hong walked out side by side. As soon as they went out, he received a call from Leng Hongyan. Leng Hongyan asked directly, "Are you proud of being on TV?"
"Are you still in Lin County?" Liu Lihai did not explain but asked like this. When he asked, he also looked at Qin Hong. Qin Hong was very tactful and consciously walked into the courtyard. This kind of conscious avoidance by Qin Hong made Liu Lihai feel awkward. On the first day they met, he seemed to have been detected by Qin Hong. Naturally, he felt a little awkward in his heart, and the words that came out of his mouth were not pleasant to hear. "Why are you still in Lin County? You shouldn't have come this time. Can't you come later? I'm not a child. "
On the other side of the phone, Leng Hongyan did not expect Liu Lihai to speak to her like this. With a "bang" sound, he hung up the phone. Only then did Liu Lihai realize that he should not treat Leng Hongyan like this. Not to mention that his wings had not grown up yet, even if they had grown up, he could not be strong in front of her. When a man's weakest or most disgraceful side was exposed to a woman, no matter what he did, he could not be justified. His little heart was in her hands.
