Li Rui complimented Zheng Meili with a smile, which made her very happy. She giggled, and the sound of laughter resounded through the lobby on the first floor. But after a while, Zheng Meili received a phone call. She apologized to Li Rui and ran out to answer the phone.
Li Rui watched her run out of the VIP building with a smile on his face. The smile on his face slowly disappeared and finally froze. He stood there and pondered for a while, then turned and walked to the stairs. Although he had told Wu Nan that he would wait for her in the lobby on the first floor, since Wu Nan said that she lived on the second floor, then it was better to wait on the second floor. It would also show his good attitude. It was fine if he didn't pay attention to such small details, but if he did, the result would be better.
He walked quickly to the second floor and stood at the top of the stairs, waiting for Wu Nan to come out. He didn't know which room Wu Nan lived in, so he could only wait at the top of the stairs. Of course, he could ask the reception downstairs, but he was afraid that Zheng Meili would know that he was here to pick up Wu Nan. If that happened, the fact that his boss had a personal relationship with Wu Nan would spread to the old fox Yu Heping's ears. Obviously, his boss didn't want that to happen.
The corridor on the second floor was empty. There was no one, and the atmosphere was so quiet that it made people feel guilty. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and someone walked out.
Li Rui looked over and quickly saw the person's face. It was Wu Nan's secretary, Guan Bao. Seeing him, his heart skipped a beat. Since he had come out, then his boss, Wu Nan, should be almost ready, right? Thinking of this, he walked up to him.
Guan Bao also saw him. After recognizing him, his face became ugly and he also walked up to him.
The two quickly walked to a place. Guan Bao asked with a gloomy face, "Are you here to pick up Mayor Wu?" Li Rui knew that he hated him, so he deliberately made him angry. He smiled and said, "Yes, Director Guan. Is Mayor Wu ready?" Guan Bao said coldly, "Not yet …" After he said that, he seemed to have thought of something and his eyes flashed with a sinister light. He said, "Mayor Wu told me to tell you when I see you. Don't wait in the building. Otherwise, even if you don't rush her, she will panic. She wants you to wait in the car outside. She will leave when she is ready." Li Rui felt a little strange. He always felt that with Wu Nan's gentle personality, she wouldn't say such things, but he didn't question it. He nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll wait outside by the car." After saying that, he smiled at him and turned to go downstairs.
Guan Bao watched him go downstairs with a gloomy face. When he couldn't see his shadow, a sinister smile appeared on his face. He said to himself, "You want to please my boss? In your dreams. I can make you be hated by thousands of people in minutes. Humph! "
After he finished, he turned and Wu's's's and waited's, he's's. After waiting for about five minutes, Wu Nan came out.
"Boss, is everything ready?"
In front of Wu Nan, Guan Bao was as docile as an obedient dog. Even his tone was gentle and charming.
Wu Nan nodded slightly and said, "Let's go."
Master and servant, one in front and one behind, walked towards the staircase. Wu Nan asked casually, "Is Xiao Li here to pick you up?" Guan Bao was stunned and said, "Xiao Li? Are you talking about Director Li Rui? I don't see him. " Wu Nan said, "He said to wait in the lobby on the first floor. He should be here by now." Guan Bao said, "Yes, he should be here a long time ago. He must be waiting for you on the first floor. Let's go down and take a look."
As the two chatted, they walked down the stairs briskly and arrived at the lobby on the first floor. The two stopped and looked around. Li Rui was nowhere to be seen.
Wu Nan did not see Li Rui and frowned slightly.
Guan Bao, who had been carefully observing her expression, saw her frown and was overjoyed. He asked curiously, "Hey, where's Director Li? Shouldn't he have come to pick you up a long time ago? I thought he'd be here a long time ago. "
Wu Nan did not say anything.
Guan Bao said, "Is he delayed by something?" Wu Nan nodded slightly and said, "Maybe." Guan Bao said, "But that's even more wrong. If he was really delayed by something, he should have called in advance to let us know. But he didn't greet us and didn't show up. That's not right. "Wu Nan was also a little confused. The gentleness on his face gradually disappeared. Guan Bao took the opportunity and said, "Why don't we wait for him for a while?" Wu Nan did not have any better ideas and said, "Do you have his contact information? Why don't you give him a call and ask? " Guan Bao said, "I don't have his number. Sigh, why is this person like this? He looks like he knows how to do things, but why does he drop the ball at such a crucial moment? He made you, the mayor, wait for a small secretary like him. This matter, sigh, it's really outrageous! " Wu Nan's face immediately showed displeasure when he heard this. He glanced at him coldly and scolded, "Don't say such weird things."
Wu Nan rarely criticized or scolded officials. These four words were already very serious criticism. Guan Bao was shocked and immediately shut his mouth. He did not dare to say anything else.
After a moment of silence, Guan Bao tried to say, "Boss, why don't I go out and look for him? Maybe he's already here, but he's not waiting in the lobby like he said. Instead, he's waiting in the car." Wu Nan felt that Li Rui was not the kind of person who would not do what he said, but he did not have any better ideas at the moment. He could only nod and say, "Okay."
Guan Bao walked towards the door. When he walked out of the VIP building, he looked out and saw a tall black figure standing next to the car closest to the door. Next to him was a black car. He asked loudly, "Is that Director Li?"
That person was Li Rui. When he saw Guan Bao coming out to call for him, he quickly walked up and asked, "Mayor Wu is here?" Guan Bao walked up to him and whispered, "Mayor Wu is not in a good mood. When you see her later, don't talk too much."
Li Rui had told many leaders in the past. When the city leaders came to see the Municipal Party Committee's secretary, Song Chaoyang, they would usually ask him, the secretary, about Song Chaoyang's mood. If Song Chaoyang was in a good mood, not only would they be able to relax, but they would also be able to talk more. If Song Chaoyang was in a bad mood, not only would they have to be careful, but they also had to talk as little as possible. Li Rui had long been used to this kind of questioning and instructions. Therefore, when he heard Guan Bao's instructions, he did not feel that there was anything wrong with it. He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll remember it. Thank you, Director Guan, for your reminder." However, he was puzzled in his heart. Didn't this guy hate him? Why was he taking care of him instead? Wasn't it better for him to embarrass himself in front of Wu Nan?
Guan Bao nodded and went back to pick up Wu Nan. When he turned around, he was already laughing coldly in his heart. He thought to himself, Let's see how I'll play you to death. Since you dare to make me unhappy, then I'll make you feel uncomfortable first.
When he returned to Wu Nan, Guan Bao whispered, "Boss, Director Li had already arrived. He was chatting with the driver in the car outside. He only remembered to pick you up when I went out to look for him. Sigh, he didn't come to pick you up. He was obviously waiting for you to go out and look for him yourself. Sigh, I don't want to say this, but this is too disrespectful to you."
Wu Nan raised her eyebrows immediately after hearing this. It was not because she was angry at Li Rui because of Guan Bao's report, but because she doubted the authenticity of Guan Bao's words from the bottom of her heart. In fact, if Li Rui's performance in the incident where her stockings were torn, she might have really believed Guan Bao's words. However, Li Rui had already earned her full trust and trust through his considerate, meticulous, and considerate performance. She felt that a careful and considerate man like Li Rui, who was under the orders of his boss, Song Chaoyang, to pick her up, would not make such a low-level mistake. Moreover, she also knew that Guan Bao and Li Rui were not on good terms. Under this premise, who knew if Guan Bao was telling the truth or taking the opportunity to slander Li Rui?
She calmed herself down and asked, "Xiao Li is outside, right?" Guan Bao could not hear any resentment towards Li Rui from her tone and was very disappointed. He was not willing to give up and continued to add fuel to the fire, "Yes, he's waiting outside. He's waiting for you to go out and find him. He's very arrogant. I think he doesn't even put you in his eyes … "Wu Nan heard that his words were becoming more and more outrageous. Her face darkened and her tone was cold as she said," You can go back now. I don't need you to come with me tonight. " Guan Bao would never have thought that not only did she not hate Li Rui, but she had also abandoned him. He was shocked and scared. He was so scared that a layer of cold sweat appeared on his back. He hurriedly begged, "Boss, let me go with you so that I can take care of you. Otherwise, I won't be at ease." Wu Nan impatiently said, "Do I have to say it a second time?"
Guan Bao wanted to say something, but after hearing what she said, he did not dare to say another word. He immediately shut his mouth and dejectedly turned around and went back upstairs.
Wu Nan faintly sighed, but quickly composed herself and walked out with a happy expression.
Li Rui, who had been waiting impatiently outside, saw a fashionably dressed and beautiful woman come out of the door. He looked carefully and recognized that it was Wu Nan. He did not dare to be negligent and hurriedly went forward to greet her, "Mayor Wu, I'm here." After he finished speaking, he was already in front of her. He looked at her clothes and secretly praised her beauty.
