Liu Lihai suddenly hated Qin Hong. A man who always used this kind of despicable way to intimidate others, just like Qi Qiang, was a person with no moral character at all. Liu Lihai liked to fight, but it was the kind of fight that Yao Haidong had analyzed. It was a battle of wits, not a trick. Of course, he had to be on guard against this kind of person. However, he walked into their banquet table again and again. This was not a good thing. If Leng Hongyan found out, he would definitely not be able to escape a harsh criticism.
Lin Nuo didn't expect things to turn out like this. Qin Hong threatened her again. If she didn't celebrate her birthday well, he would stop taking her mother's medicine. She had to come back. Unexpectedly, Liu Lihai wanted to leave. She had to walk quickly to Liu Lihai's side and then said to Qin Hong and Qi Qiang, "You guys go back first and wait for us."
Qin Hong glanced at Lin Nuo. Lin Nuo didn't look back at him, so he said to Qi Qiang, "Let's go, Brother Qi."
As soon as Qin Hong and Qi Qiang left, Lin Nuo said, "County Magistrate Liu, I'm sorry. I got you into trouble."
"Lin Nuo, I also know that you have to rely on Qin Hong for your mother's matter. But there are some things that you have to be clear about. What can you do and what can't? I'm sorry, but the distance between us is a little big. What do you think? "Liu Lihai said.
"County Magistrate Liu, I know, I know. Tonight, I ask you to stay, okay? Everyone is celebrating my birthday for me, and this is the first time I've celebrated a birthday like this. From this point of view, I am very grateful to Qin Hong, but he has been doing things to hurt you. I, I am very sad. You are classmates, how could you make trouble like this? Also, when Qin Hong told me about you just now, I was really sad. I didn't expect you to have such a story. Although these stories originally had nothing to do with me, when I heard them, I was really sad. Qin Hong said that if we can't celebrate his birthday properly tonight and give him face, my mom will have to stop taking the medicine again. So, Mayor Liu, I beg you to stay. Just take it as a show with me, okay? I really didn't think about taking responsibility, and I really didn't think about having a future with you. I know I'm not good enough for you, I … "Lin Nuo's voice became softer as she spoke, and her tears flowed down again.
Seeing Lin Nuo like this, Liu Lihai's heart softened, and he said, "Lin Nuo, don't cry, I'll stay."
Lin Nuo quickly wiped her tears and said, "Then let's go in." She looked like she was afraid that Liu Lihai would go back on his words. Liu Lihai looked at her and felt sad, but he still followed Lin Nuo and walked into the villa.
When Liu Lihai and Lin Nuo walked into Qin Hong's villa together, the cake of the high-level officials had already been removed, and the dishes were being served. When Qin Hong saw the two people coming in, he quickly said, "Sit down, I was about to call you."
The dinner this time was all home-cooked dishes, which was Qin Hong's idea. Moreover, Qin Hong specially made a rural kitchen at the back of the villa, which was mainly made with an earthen stove. These home-cooked dishes were all made with an earthen stove, which made Liu Lihai have the taste of eating in Qinghe Village for the first time. For Liu Lihai, this taste was really good. So, Liu Lihai didn't stand on ceremony and kept eating. Lin Nuo was arranged to sit with Liu Lihai. At least in this small group, Liu Lihai and Lin Nuo were a pair.
Seeing that Liu Lihai kept eating, Lin Nuo couldn't help but ask him with a smile, "Magistrate Liu, are you used to our taste here?"
Liu Lihai also smiled and said, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Besides, when I was in Beijing, I ate northern dishes. I rarely ate this kind of home-cooked Jiangnan dishes. After returning to Jingjiang, I still like these home-cooked dishes, especially the home-cooked dishes in Lin County. They are really very authentic. Tonight's chef's surgery is very good, and it has the flavor of Qinghe Village. "
As soon as Liu Lihai's words fell, Qi Qiang said, "Magistrate Liu really knows how to taste dishes. This chef was really invited from Qinghe Village."
As soon as Qi Qiang's words fell, Liu Lihai's gaze inadvertently drifted to Qin Hong. Qin Hong said proudly, "My old classmate likes to eat Qinghe Village's dishes. Of course, I have to eat what I like and flatter my old classmate."
The more Qin Hong said this, the more Liu Lihai felt that Qin Hong was setting him up again. However, he still had to put on a smile on his face. He looked at Qin Hong and said, "Boss Qin, you speak so highly of me. Are you trying to set me up again?"
When Qin Hong heard Liu Lihai say this, he quickly got down from his seat and walked to Liu Lihai's side. He said, "Old classmate, come, let's have a drink first. I really have a trap for you." Qin Hong didn't hide his purpose at all.
Liu Lihai didn't plan to drink tonight. As long as he didn't drink, no matter what trap Qin Hong set, he would be vigilant.
"I can't drink this wine. I have a car." Liu Lihai picked up the glass and didn't let Qin Hong add more wine.
When Qin Hong heard Liu Lihai say this, he laughed out loud. His laughter made Liu Lihai's anger rise again, and his face suddenly darkened. Lin Nuo had been looking at Liu Lihai. When she saw that he didn't look good, she was very nervous. She quickly stood up and said, "Brother, I'll drink for County Magistrate Liu. He needs to drive."
Liu Lihai didn't expect that Lin Nuo would drink for him again. The scene in Qinghe Village last time seemed to be repeating here. He felt more and more that this pair of godbrother and godsister were going to work together to make trouble again. He couldn't help but say coldly, "If you want to drink, drink by yourselves. Don't drag me into it."
Qi Qiang didn't expect Liu Lihai to really lose his temper. He quickly stood up to smooth things over. His task was to smooth things over. He was very clear about the grievances and irreconcilable contradictions between Qin Hong and Liu Lihai, this pair of old classmates.
"Chief Qi, sit down." Qin Hong said. It seemed that he didn't want Qi Qiang to smooth things over. Qi Qiang sat down, and the girls also looked at Qin Hong nervously. Qin Hong said, "Old classmate, I don't want to call you County Magistrate Liu. It's easy to alienate us. I always think that the friendship between classmates is very important, and classmates don't need to be defined by the size of the official position. What do you think? Old classmate. "
At this time, Qin Hong actually played the friendship card, which put Liu Lihai in a dilemma. If he continued to lose his temper, not only would Lin Nuo be embarrassed, but his image would also be greatly damaged. Therefore, Liu Lihai looked at Qin Hong and said, "Qin Hong, the friendship between classmates is very valuable. Among my classmates in Lin County, you're the only one I can contact. I've always valued the friendship between classmates, so do you think it's necessary to force each other to drink? "
"Of course not. It's just that I'm the owner of this villa, so I have to do my part as the owner, right?" Qin Hong laughed again.
"I brought the car, old classmate." Liu Lihai also followed Qin Hong's tone and called Qin Hong an old classmate.
"If you drink too much tonight, sleep in my villa. The upstairs are all guest rooms, and I've asked people to clean them up. You can sleep in whichever room you want." Qin Hong didn't give Liu Lihai any room to retreat at all. It seemed that he had to drink tonight.
Liu Lihai's heart trembled a few times. Was he going to be manipulated by Qin Hong again? As long as he raised his glass tonight, everyone at the table would toast him like they did in Qinghe Village, and the scene in Qinghe Village would be more likely to play out in Qin Hong's villa.
"Since my old classmate is so enthusiastic, I'll risk my life to accompany you today." As Liu Lihai spoke, he put the glass on the table and let Qin Hong pour the wine for him. But at this time, Lin Nuo was still looking at these two people very nervously, but she didn't dare to speak.
Liu Lihai's first glass of wine was drunk like this. As soon as he finished, Lin Nuo quickly used Liu Lihai's own chopsticks to pick up some food for him. After picking up the food, she said, "Hurry up and eat some food."
Seeing Lin Nuo's behavior, Qin Hong couldn't help but say, "When a girl grows up, she really can't be kept at home. Look, Lin Nuo only knows how to care about your County Magistrate Liu. Why don't you care about your Brother Qin?"
"You have Xiao Hong and Xiao Qiao by your side, of course, you don't need me to take care of you as your sister." Lin Nuo smiled and replied to Qin Hong.
This scene was really becoming more and more like Qinghe Village, Liu Lihai thought so in his heart. However, how could he get away? This was a problem that Liu Lihai had to think hard about.
As soon as Lin Nuo's words fell, Qin Hong said, "You take good care of County Magistrate Liu for me. As long as County Magistrate Liu is willing to help, I will definitely give my sister a very generous dowry."
Qin Hong's purpose seemed to be revealed. After Qin Hong's words fell, Liu Lihai continued, "Is there anything that Boss Qin can't handle?"
"Old classmate, I really have something that I can't handle. Today is my sister's birthday party. I want to ask you to be magnanimous and help me fulfill a dream that I have been dreaming for many years. What do you think?" Qin Hong became serious at this time.
"There is something that Boss Qin can't handle in Lin County?" Liu Lihai ridiculed Qin Hong.
"Old classmate, don't laugh at me like this. I really have something to ask my old classmate for help. As long as you help me fulfill this dream, I will pay for all of my sister's dowry when she gets married. "Qin Hong really made a deal, and he said it without blushing or palpitating.
Liu Lihai really learned something. How did Qin Hong become so skillful? No matter what happened in front of him, it was all natural.
"Aren't you old partners with Secretary Shi? Isn't the current Lin County under Secretary Shi's command? " Liu Lihai said jokingly. He could only say such words in a joking tone. If he really said it seriously, it would make him and Shi Zhilin stand against each other.
As soon as Liu Lihai's words fell, Qi Qiang couldn't help but look at Liu Lihai. How could Liu Lihai say such a thing directly? In fact, many people didn't know the relationship between Shi Zhilin and Qin Hong.
"How can I be acquainted with Secretary Shi? If the relationship between me and Secretary Shi is really as good as you think, why should I bother to ask my old classmate for help? " Since Qin Hong said it very seriously, as if there was really no relationship between him and Shi Zhilin, Liu Lihai was really confused. What did Qin Hong want to play?
