Most women in the world had a psychological barrier. If a man wanted to conquer a woman, he would first have to open the barrier in her heart. That barrier was like her life gate. As long as it could be opened, her physical and mental life would be in the man's hands. Tonight, Song Chaoyang was a little unlucky. She didn't find the key to open Wu Nan's psychological barrier, so she couldn't open that barrier, let alone conquer Wu Nan. But for Wu Nan herself, she felt that someone was already standing in front of that checkpoint today, and had even touched the lock on the checkpoint.
Wu Nan was like most leaders who had risen to high positions at a young age. She was a thorough second-generation official. When she was an adult, her father was the director of the Shannan Provincial Government Office. At that time, the country was undergoing reform and opening up, and there weren't many good opportunities for development in the country. Under her father's guidance, she entered the bureaucracy. Her father considered that even if his daughter couldn't inherit his father's career, she could still develop in the future under the care of her father's relatives and friends. A few years after Wu Nan entered the bureaucracy, her father arranged for her to marry the son of an old friend of her father's. This was a typical political marriage. At that time, her father-in-law was already the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. It was said that he would soon be transferred to the province as the deputy governor.
Wu Nan's married life was definitely not a happy one. It was only slightly better than a tragedy. Her husband was a typical playboy. He relied on his father's power to do business. He earned a lot of money every day and squandered it without restraint. Although he didn't treat her badly, how could a person who was used to a life of debauchery and extravagance be imprisoned in the circle of marriage? Other than the time when he was still a little interested in her after their marriage, after she gave birth to the child, he was still interested in the child for a while. After that, he resumed his playboy demeanor and spent most of the time outside. In a month, he was not at home. The relationship between husband and wife became cold. Wu Nan tried to persuade him several times, but when she saw that it was useless, she didn't waste her breath and didn't care about him anymore.
Wu Nan could not feel the warmth of life and family, so he could only focus on his work. She had the care of her father and father-in-law. In addition, her father-in-law had really been promoted to the position of Deputy Governor in the province. As a result, her path in the bureaucracy was smooth sailing, and her progress was rapid. She was promoted to the level of City Hall within a dozen years, almost within the time limit set by the management regulations for the selection and appointment of officials. In the past ten years, her relationship with her husband had become increasingly cold. Although it wasn't to the point of breaking apart, it was close to breaking apart. She and her husband's child had always been taken care of by the child's grandparents, so they were not very close to her. As a result, it was increasingly difficult for her to feel the warmth of her family and the love of her loved ones. Although her official position was getting higher and higher, her heart and emotions were getting lower and lower. She had already reached the lowest point of collapse.
Outsiders said that she was a beautiful and glamorous mayor, but in fact, she was only an empty shell of a mayor. Her body had long been empty. In theory, in her mental state, it was easy for other men to take advantage of her weakness and steal her heart in one fell swoop. However, the people in her circle were afraid of the two big families she belonged to and her own power, so they did not dare to make a move on her. People outside her circle did not have the opportunity to interact with her at all, so from the beginning to the end, no other men dared to covet her. In the past, before she was promoted to the level of City Hall, she went to the training class for City Hall cadres held by the Provincial Party School. During that class, she met Song Chaoyang. At that time, Song Chaoyang was still the secretary of the Provincial League Committee. He could be considered a relatively young leader in the province. He was also gentle and had a cheerful and gentle personality. It could be said that he was a slightly older "fresh meat" in the bureaucracy, and it was easy for women to have a good impression of him.
However, Wu Nan had no feelings for Song Chaoyang at all. She was somewhat arrogant in her bones, so she did not want to mix with a man who was half a level higher than her. In addition, Song Chaoyang did not have anything that could make a woman's eyes light up, such as a handsome face, tall figure, romantic words, and so on. Song Chaoyang did not have any of these … All these reasons together led Wu Nan to never accept Song Chaoyang's pursuit. Although she did not accept this extramarital affair, Wu Nan's heartstrings had been pulled. She began to realize that if there was a man she liked by her side, and the other party was especially caring and protective of her, then she wouldn't mind having a strange relationship with him. Not only could she enjoy life and love, but she could also take revenge on her licentious husband a little.
Of course, she only had this thought in her heart, but she also knew that it was wrong and dangerous. Most of the time, she suppressed this dangerous thought in her heart and did not take any action for this thought, until this time when she came to Qingyang to study and study. She treated this investigation as purely work, a business trip, and put all her focus on the investigation and learning. The more she did so, the more surprised and shocked Li Rui, who stood up for her when she was in trouble, and what he did for her, made her heart that was almost dried up was rejuvenated, and she was rejuvenated with the pursuit of love, life, and the opposite sex. Li Rui's handsomeness, tall, straightforward, attentive, delicate, initiative, considerate, and generous left a deep impression on her. His shadow was soon engraved in her heart … Of course, as a woman and a mayor, even if she was moved, she would not show it on the surface.
Now, it was time for her to rest, but she couldn't fall asleep no matter what. Her mind was filled with Li Rui's every word, action, frown, and smile. She knew that she was moved by Li Rui, but she felt that this thought was absurd and shameful. However, she couldn't get rid of this thought. She could only sink deeper and deeper into the battle between heaven and earth, and her impression of Li Rui also became deeper and deeper.
"Am I too impatient? It's fine to ask for his phone number, but why do I have to call him back? Why do I ask him to contact me? That's too explicit! He's such a smart guy, how can he not understand the deep meaning in it? Alas, I'm going to be laughed at by him … He won't laugh at me, will he? If I'm not wrong, he also has a good impression of me. Otherwise, why would he be so nice to me? Speaking of which, I'm not old, I'm still very beautiful and charming … "
Wu Nan leaned against the headboard and let her imagination run wild. She was worried about her gains and losses. One moment, she blushed shyly, and the next moment, she smiled reservedly like a young girl who had fallen in love for the first time.
Her secretary, Guan Bao, who lived next door, was not as happy as her.
Not long ago, Guan Bao was called into the room by Wu Nan and given a harsh scolding. Wu Nan did not give him any face and told him that he had falsified the imperial edict and slandered Li Rui. She gave him a good scolding and finally asked him why he had done it. Of course, Guan Bao would not say, "I saw that Li Rui was taller, more handsome, and younger than me. He also kept trying to get close to you, so I was jealous, so I plotted against him." He only said that he and Li Rui had some misunderstandings. Wu Nan did not say anything after hearing his story. She only chased him out.
If it were anyone else, they would not be afraid of being scolded by their leader after making a mistake. Instead, they would be happy. The more the leader scolded you, the more it meant that they treated you as one of their own. As long as you corrected your mistake, the leader would still put you in an important position. However, Guan Bao was keenly aware that his title as the first secretary of the Eastern State government was going to be ruined. He had never been scolded by Wu Nan before, not even once. Now, not only was he scolded, but he was also scolded. What was even more frightening was that Wu Nan did not punish him. For example, she would ask him to write a self-reflection letter or admit his mistake. What did this mean? It meant that Wu Nan had completely given up on him and did not intend to use him as a secretary. Naturally, she did not need to lower herself to his level.
When Guan Bao thought of this possibility, he was scared out of his wits. His whole body felt cold, as if he was in an ice cave. He had not been working as the first secretary of the city government for long. At the end of last year, he was recruited by Wu Nan, the female mayor, to be her secretary. Although Wu Nan was a woman, her leadership skills were very high. After she became the mayor of the Eastern State government, she did not choose a permanent secretary. Instead, she selected people from the First Secretary Department and the First General Department of the Eastern State Municipal Government Office to be her temporary secretaries. Every two to three months, they would be replaced. This way, she could maximize the number of talents she could find. It also allowed her to learn all the inside information of the Municipal Government.
After Guan Bao's predecessor was replaced, the wheel of good luck turned to him. He was lucky enough to be chosen by Wu Nan to be her newest temporary secretary. He cherished this opportunity very much. He worked hard and served with care. He planned to use his hard work to move Wu Nan and make her choose him as her permanent secretary. In fact, Wu Nan was quite satisfied with his service. Although she had never publicly announced that she wanted to use him, he had been in her employ for almost four months now. The fact that she had not replaced him showed that she approved of him and wanted to keep him. From this, Guan Bao could tell that he was definitely going to be the first secretary of the city government. Therefore, he was very happy. He felt that the hard days of working hard to perform were over. Now, it was time for him to enjoy all the benefits of being the first secretary of the city government.
