Little Qing and Lu Wei held hands like they had known each other for a long time, especially Little Qing. As they walked, she reminded Lu Wei, "Sister, it's time to go up the stairs. Be careful."
"Do you always treat your customers like this?" Lu Wei had run a restaurant before, so of course, she knew how difficult it was to run a restaurant. She asked Little Qing affectionately.
"That's not it. It's Sister's first time coming to our restaurant. Moreover, Sister looks like a girl from a big city. I was afraid that you wouldn't be used to the small stairs in the countryside, so I reminded you. Moreover, it's the first time the minister brought a girl here to eat. Of course, I have to treat her warmly. " Liu Lihai, who was following behind, heard everything Little Qing said. He didn't think that Little Qing would actually treat Lu Wei as his girlfriend. It was also his fault. He only cared about calling Little Qing when he entered and didn't think about introducing them to each other. That was why there was such a misunderstanding.
However, Lu Wei seemed to enjoy this misunderstanding. She didn't explain at all and even giggled. It seemed that all mature women had the same virtue. They all hoped to be seen as younger by others and to be less mature.
It was said that men always liked 18-year-old girls, but women probably always hoped that they were 18 years old.
At this time, if Liu Lihai rushed to explain again, it was very likely that he would hurt Lu Wei. Therefore, he also pretended not to hear the two women's conversation. His footsteps were obviously slower and he took the initiative to pull away from them. Only by doing this could he avoid the awkwardness. Moreover, he was still a little afraid of Lu Wei's mouth. If she talked nonsense in front of Little Qing, he wouldn't be able to explain it even if he had ten mouths.
On the second floor, Little Qing directly brought Lu Wei into the private room that Liu Lihai and his cousin Xu Zhigang usually liked to sit in. Lu Wei asked, "This is the room that the minister often eats in?"
"Yes. When the minister and my cousin come to my place, they will talk in this room. "Xiaoqing replied.
Lv Wei curiously looked around the room. After all, this wasn't her restaurant, so the decorations were too simple. Aside from a round table used for eating, there weren't many decorations. Little Qing saw Lv Wei looking around, so she smiled and said, "Big Sister, this place is very simple. Big Sister, please be more tolerant."
"It's quite good. It's quite good." Lu Wei said with her mouth, but she was still a little uncomfortable in her heart. No matter what, Liu Lihai shouldn't have brought her to such a shabby place. This dining place was too shabby. Obviously, she didn't have any weight in his heart. Although she didn't really care about splendor, this place was really too simple and crude.
Xiaoqing didn't notice the expression on Lv Wei's face. She was still enthusiastically saying, "Minister, you're so cute. You've come to eat our restaurant's peasant food. Elder sister, please sit down. I'll go brew a pot of tea and immediately cook for you. By the way, Big Sister, what's your favorite dish? Name two and I'll go prepare it right away. "
Lu Wei was very unhappy in her heart, so she couldn't be bothered to order any dishes. She casually said, "If your minister likes it, serve it."
"Alright. Big Sister, please take a seat. I'll go prepare now. " After saying that, Little Qing walked out of the room and almost collided with Liu Lihai, who was coming in. Fortunately, Little Qing dodged quickly, so they didn't collide head-on.
Little Qing was a bit embarrassed as she said, "Department Head, you accompany big sister for a while. I'll go prepare now." As she spoke, she quickly left.
Liu Lihai saw Little Qing's embarrassment when she almost bumped into his arms, so he didn't answer Little Qing's words and let her go down. But when he walked in front of Lu Wei, he found that Lu Wei looked a little unhappy. He thought that Little Qing had said something to make her unhappy, so he hurriedly asked, "What did Little Qing say to make you unhappy?"
"Hmph, is this how you welcome me?" Lu Wei sneered.
As soon as Lu Wei's words fell, Liu Lihai looked at her with some puzzlement. At this time, Lu Wei raised her head and glanced around the room. Only then did Liu Lihai understand that the shabbiness of this room had made Lu Wei unhappy, so he explained, "Xiao Wei, the dishes here are really delicious, and all of them are grown by Little Qing. Here, you can eat without worry. If you don't believe me, you'll know why I brought you here after you've eaten. Besides, I thought you liked to eat the most primitive dishes cooked on the local stove. I didn't consider the shabbiness of this place. I'm sorry, Xiao Wei. Just eat this meal like this. I'll make up for it in the evening and invite County Head Ma out, okay? "
As soon as Liu Lihai's words fell, Lu Wei was even angrier. She looked at him and said, "Why do you have to let me eat with that old woman? I'm here to open a company, not her subordinate. Why should I eat with her? "
"Well, I …" Liu Lihai suddenly stuttered, and his face suddenly turned red.
As soon as Lu Wei saw Liu Lihai like this, her heart softened again. She smiled and said, "Handsome, don't be so nervous, okay? I just want to have a relaxing meal with you because you're so handsome. I want to see if my appetite will increase a little when I face a handsome man. Don't always mention your officialdom, okay? I'm not interested in those things, and I won't please Ma Jinxiu for Sister Leng's company. I don't have to, understand? "
Although Lu Wei's tone was smiling, it was still very heavy in Liu Lihai's ears. He knew that Lu Wei and he were in the situation of a scholar meeting a soldier, but he still hoped that Lu Wei would understand the principle that a county official was not as good as a local official. Now it seemed that Lu Wei didn't have this concept at all. If he wasted more words, it would only make Lu Wei more disgusted. Thinking of this, Liu Lihai stopped mentioning this matter, but said, "Xiao Wei, I'm sorry, I, I was too cautious."
"Yes. Handsome. " Lu Wei quickly continued Liu Lihai's words, "Moreover, men who are too cautious will lose their charm. You're really handsome. Alas, it's a pity that you're in politics. If you were in the business world, you would be a professional killer for the rich and beautiful women. If you want to make money, it's a piece of cake. Those silly girls were really rich, but they were stupid. When they see a handsome guy like you, they immediately soften. "
As Lu Wei said this, her eyes directly and specifically fell on Liu Lihai's face, and Liu Lihai's heart couldn't help but beat quickly.
As the cousin of the provincial party secretary, Lu Wei actually felt pity for Liu Lihai's entering the officialdom. At this time, her eyes and emotions made Liu Lihai feel that they were familiar. At the same time, his heart beat faster, Gong Yue's words that he should not enter the officialdom appeared again. At this time, he had an indescribable feeling towards Lu Wei and Gong Yue. His feeling, his heartbeat, had absolutely nothing to do with the heartbeat between a man and a woman. But what exactly was he feeling at this time, he couldn't tell.
Life was often so nonsensical. What you desperately pursued might not be the most suitable thing for you. What you desperately wanted, in fact, was sometimes so simple. Just like Lu Wei at this time, she didn't hide her praise for Liu Lihai's appearance. If she said that she had any possessiveness towards him, or any romantic feelings, in Liu Lihai's eyes, at least he couldn't feel it.
Besides, Lu Wei was a person who would not stop unless she said something shocking. Any stunning words that came out of her mouth were already not surprising to Liu Lihai. If this woman was serious, he would think that the problem was really serious.
Sometimes, the relationship between men and women was so strange. The person who kept praising you and praising you didn't have any romantic feelings towards you, while the person who had been quietly paying attention to you had all kinds of thoughts. Leng Hongyan had never praised Liu Lihai so directly. Sun Xiaomu would call him Liu Shuai, but she had never praised his appearance so directly. Also, Lin Nuo, who was silently in love with him, had never praised him either.
In Liu Lihai's eyes, these three women were all women who loved him. There were not many men who didn't want to be loved by many women. Although they didn't want to be entangled, they would still cherish the women who truly loved them. This was the case for Liu Lihai.
Therefore, Liu Lihai was able to be frank in Lu Wei's direct gaze. He looked at her and said, "Xiao Wei, I like officialdom, and I also need officialdom. You won't understand this. Money, this thing, for me, I don't have a strong desire to occupy it. It can be said that I don't love money. I don't have a concept of money, but I have a concept of power in officialdom. This is also the reason why I want you to have a good relationship with County Magistrate Ma.
In officialdom, the county magistrate is always inferior to the person in charge. Besides, the relationship between women is often not as generous as the relationship between men. After they hit it off, a few glasses of wine and a cigarette can be settled. Between you women, fighting over this and that, even trivial matters can become your major events. This is probably the real reason why women are always the weakest in politics.
Xiao Wei, I'm not pretending. I really don't love money, but I love power. But I need power, because power is too sacred, because power can turn my ideas into reality. Money may not necessarily change anything, but power, if used properly, can bring infinite energy, which can bring life-changing power to many people. These are all my true thoughts.
So, Xiao Wei, I am very grateful for your trust in me and unguarded. Only people like you, who are not in officialdom, can give me such a feeling. I don't like to be cautious, but if I'm not careful, if I'm not cautious, can I get to an important position? When can I make my own decisions? How can I turn my ideas into the ability to do practical things for the people? These, I need to guard, endure, and be careful every day. Do you understand? "
Liu Lihai didn't know whether he was moved by Lu Wei's trust, or these things had been suppressed in the depths of his heart for too long, too long. He needed someone to listen to him, someone to understand what he wanted, and what he could do.
Lv Wei had been listening to Liu Lihai's words carefully. She had never thought that such a young man, and such a handsome young man, would think of things that were completely different from what she had imagined. She didn't love officialdom, she loved money.
How good would it be to be rich? With money, she could do whatever she wanted. She could go abroad if she wanted to, chase after stars if she wanted to, and even hire a male star to play with her. If she was in officialdom, would she have so many ideas and freedom?
Although Lu Wei had never heard Leng Hongyan talk about the ambiguous relationship between Leng Hongyan and Liu Lihai, she was still very touched by this young man's eyes and attention, and she recognized it very much. Humans always needed a period of time in their lives where they would forget themselves. They always needed someone to make them go crazy for once, to focus on once, even to the point of disregarding everything else for once. So, she recognized and appreciated Leng Hongyan. She appreciated Leng Hongyan.
Of course, the relationship between her and Leng Hongyan was also a kind of fate that made them hit it off right from the start. This kind of fate didn't just happen to anyone. She didn't like Ma Jinxiu. Why should she lower her head and cater to such a woman? If that was the case, she would rather not come to Lin County, and she would rather not take over Jiarun Company. She didn't believe that Ma Jinxiu would dare to do anything to her. On this point, she felt that Liu Lihai was too cautious.
As soon as Liu Lihai finished speaking, Lu Wei said seriously, "Xiao Liu, you are very different from Wan Shengli. Of course, Xiaowan is a few years older than you, and his way of thinking is probably different from yours. Personally, I still like the way Xiaowan does things, but I will still try my best to understand you, and even admire you. I can tell you now that I will try my best to let Xiaowan come to Lin County to be the Party Secretary. I won't be led by the nose by a woman like Ma Jinxiu. "
As soon as Lu Wei finished speaking, Liu Lihai couldn't help but look at her face. He was thinking, "Does Lu Wei know about the current Ma Jinxiu? Does she know that she has the power of Meng Anda behind her? " At this time, he didn't think too much about why Lu Wei was so confident that she could let Wan Shengli come to Lin County. What was the relationship between her and Wan Shengli?
Liu Lihai didn't think about it. If he thought about it, especially if he thought about it seriously. Maybe there would be no future for the things that happened in the future. Of course, this was a story for the future. Sometimes, fate ran all the way in another direction in a strange combination of circumstances.
Lu Wei didn't avoid Liu Lihai's eyes. She also looked straight at him. Just as they looked at each other, Xiaoqing coughed outside the door. Her cough made Liu Lihai feel embarrassed. It seemed that he had been misunderstood by Xiaoqing today.
Lu Wei acted as if nothing had happened. She said with a smile, "Come in. We are fine."
Xiaoqing walked in with a teapot. As she walked, she said, "Sister, this tea is wild tea from behind the mountain. I made it myself. Try it. Is it good?" As she said this, she poured a cup for Lu Wei and a cup for Liu Lihai.
Lu Wei saw that Xiaoqing was so enthusiastic. She had always thought that she was about the same age as Liu Lihai, so she naturally gave Xiaoqing face. She picked up the tea and took a sip. The tea was a little bitter. She couldn't help but stick out her tongue. Xiaoqing saw this and hurriedly said, "Sister, is it bad?"
Liu Lihai smiled and said, "Xiaoqing, you go and do your work. Your sister may not be used to drinking wild tea from the countryside. She doesn't have this kind of taste. "
This made Lu Wei feel a little embarrassed. Just as she was about to refute Liu Lihai, she actually felt a sweetness in her mouth. Moreover, there was a hint of coolness in the sweetness. She couldn't help but praise, "Good tea. This tea is really good. Really good."
Hearing Lu Wei's praise, Xiaoqing smiled with relief and said, "It's great that you like it."
