Through his emergency rescue, he drank a glass of wine with Director Yang and the other two and finally avoided the awkwardness. When the few of them sat down again, they were chatting happily and incomparably intimately.
However, the banquet didn't last for long. The few of them chatted happily and drank two more glasses before Director Yang and the others took the initiative to leave.
When Ou Yangxin sent the three of them to the elevator lobby, Director Yang saw that Li Rui didn't follow and complained to her, "General Manager Ouyang, you have such a good relationship with Director Li, why didn't you say so earlier?" Ou Yangxin smiled and said, "I also didn't know that his face was so big." Director Yang said, "Alright, leave the matter of the fixed location to me. In the future, I'll have to ask General Manager Ouyang to support our work." Ou Yangxin smiled and said, "Then I'll have to thank Director Yang. Oh right, our hotel recently purchased a batch of special grade sea cucumbers from Weihai, but it hasn't arrived yet. When it arrives, I'll have someone send it to Director Yang's house. Director Yang is experienced and knowledgeable, so he can help check if it's really special grade so that our hotel won't be cheated. "Director Yang laughed and said," Well said, well said. Alright, that's all for now. We'll go back now. You should hurry back to accompany Director Li. "
After Ou Yangxin sent the three of them into the elevator, she turned around and walked back to the private room. When she saw Li Rui again, her face was filled with joy. She was secretly thinking about how to thank him for helping her this time.
When Li Rui saw her come back, he frowned and asked, "Why are you sitting with them? When did your hotel get involved with the logistics of the government? " Ou Yangxin walked in front of him and sighed with a frown, "Do you think I want to? Isn't it all because of the fixed location? A few days ago, the city issued a new regulation to strengthen the management of the fixed location reception units such as the meetings of the city government and the public affairs reception units. After this rule was passed, the City Reception Office removed all the designated reception units except for the Qingyang Hotel. After that, they will re-examine and re-evaluate those who pass the evaluation. Only those who pass the evaluation will be re-listed. "
Li Rui nodded and said, "I understand. The Reception Department is actually using this opportunity to strengthen their management to take advantage of you and make things difficult for you. That's why you, the General Manager, have to personally entertain the Reception Department's leader." Ouyang Xin bitterly sighed, "What else can we do? He had to make her happy, right? If the other party is unhappy, your hotel can forget about being listed as a designated reception unit. You will lose a lot of business, and it will indirectly affect your income … Oh right, I still have to thank you. If it weren't for you today, Director Yang and the others wouldn't have settled on me so easily, haha. You helped me solve a big problem. "
Li Rui sighed when he heard this. It couldn't be said that the government did everything wrong. After all, the government did provide a source of business for the private catering units. It could only be said that the leaders of the relevant departments had problems in the implementation process. There were many similar cases in recent years. The government's intentions were good, but when it came to the actual implementation, there would be some problems. The things that were originally beneficial to the people would cause complaints in the society. In the long run, how could the government's reputation be good? How could they talk about the credibility of the government? Sigh, the government was also a victim.
Ou Yangxin asked with interest, "Why are you sighing? Are you complaining that I'm delaying your return home? " Li Rui shook his head and said, "Of course not, I was thinking …" He spoke out his thoughts just now. Ou Yangxin smiled and said, "So you were worried about the country and the people. I thought you were worried that if you came home late, your wife would make you kneel on the washboard." Li Rui smiled and thought, First of all, my wife is a gentle and virtuous Qingman. She would never make me kneel on the washboard. Secondly, even if she made me kneel, I would make you kneel on your head. When I'm done kneeling, I'll find you and let you massage my knees. He thought so in his heart, but he didn't say it out loud. He pretended to be noble and didn't expect anything in return. He stood up and said, "But I really should go back." Ou Yangxin smiled and said, "Don't worry, I definitely won't drive into a ditch." Li Rui nodded and said, "That's right, because there are no ditches in the city." Ou Yangxin laughed and said, "That's right, because there are no ditches in the city." Ou Yangxin laughed and said, "That's right, because there are no ditches in the city." Ou Yangxin laughed happily.
Li Rui first accompanied Ou Yangxin back to her office to get her bag and car keys. After entering her general manager office, he waited for her to have some free time. He walked a few steps in front of the huge glass wall and looked up. He thought of the terrible scene when Xiao Wenna fell from the building. His heart felt heavy. Xiao Wenna would never have thought that her death would not only avenge herself, but also kill the mayor of Qingyang City. This caused a silent earthquake in Qingyang City. And the biggest beneficiary after her death was Yu Heping, the deputy secretary of the Municipal Party Committee who had nothing to do with her. Alas, this was how fate played with people.
Just as he was feeling sentimental, Ou Yangxin suddenly received a call. He heard her say, "Director Ji, hello, why …"
When Li Rui heard the words "Director Ji", his ears perked up and he immediately turned to look at her.
"What? You're looking for me? You're here already? I'll open the door for you? Uh … I … I'm in the office … but … "
When Ou Yangxin said this, she was already stuttering. She looked frightened and embarrassed. It was as if the person who came was not Director Ji, but her husband, and the purpose of the visit was to catch her and Li Rui in the act.
When Li Rui heard this, he was also shocked. Although he did not know the purpose of Director Ji's visit, he could understand from Ou Yangxin's repeated words that the other party was looking for her. Moreover, he was already near her general manager's office and would be here soon. Originally, if a friend or client came to look for Ou Yangxin in the middle of the night and saw him in her office, it would not be a problem. However, the other party was called "Director Ji", and there seemed to be only one person with the surname "Director Ji" in Qingyang City. He was the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee's Deputy Secretary, Yu Heping, and the director of the Second Department of Secretaries. If he really came and saw him with Ou Yangxin, what would he think? What would he do afterward? Thinking of this, he only felt that things were not good.
On the other side, Ou Yangxin had already hung up the phone. She hurriedly walked around the desk and whispered to him, "Ji Gang came to look for me. He'll be here soon. Is it convenient for you to meet him?" Li Rui shook his head decisively and said, "It's not convenient. I don't want him to know that I know you. I'll leave immediately …" Ou Yangxin's expression changed slightly and said, "It's too late. He's already out of the elevator. If you go out, he'll see you." Li Rui was very anxious. He looked around and said, "Is there an inner room in your office that I can hide in?" Ou Yangxin shook her head with a bitter face and said, "No, there's not even a closet."
Li Rui seemed to have heard Ji Gang's footsteps in the corridor outside the door. He was afraid and anxious. He turned to look at the front of Ou Yangxin's sealed wide desk. His eyes brightened and he had an idea. He rushed over quickly, went around the desk, gently pushed the boss's chair away, bent down, and hid in the narrow space under the desk.
Ou Yangxin saw this scene and was surprised and amused. An incredible smile appeared on her face. She would never have thought that Li Rui, the first secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, would be embarrassed to hide under the desk in order to avoid outsiders. It was really funny. However, from his actions, she could see that he did not treat her as an outsider at all. He was not afraid of being seen by her. Thinking of this, her heart warmed.
Li Rui had just hidden under the desk. Before he could ask Ou Yangxin to help him cover up, there was a knock on the door. He had already opened his mouth to warn Ou Yangxin, but when he heard the knock, he quickly closed his mouth. He was sure that Ou Yangxin would help him cover up.
At this time, Ou Yangxin had already put away the smile on her face and walked to the door to open it. After the door opened, Ji Gang's usually gloomy face appeared. However, his face was different today. It was rare that he had a faint smile on his face.
Ou Yangxin smiled and said politely, "Director Ji, I'm honored to have you here. Please don't be offended." Then she stepped aside. Ji Gang smelled the smell of alcohol when she spoke, and then saw her flushed face and watery eyes. He felt slightly strange, so he walked into the room and asked, "Did you drink?" Ouyang Xin nodded and said, "Well, I drank, and I drank a lot. I let you see a joke." Then she let him sit on the guest sofa.
Ji Gang waved his hand, indicating that she did not need to be polite. He smiled and said, "I don't have anything to do. I just heard that the Municipal Government is going to re-examine the designated reception units. It seems that your Shengjing Hotel also needs to be re-examined. I am worried that the relevant departments of the Municipal Government will make things difficult for you during the examination, so I took some time to come and take a look. If you need any help, don't hesitate to ask me. You may not know, but if there is no accident, I will be transferred to the Municipal Government in a few days. At that time, someone will listen to me. "
