Li Rui read the material from the beginning to the end and did not find anything complicated. He also understood the content and memorized it in his mind. He stopped reading and started to do other work.
While he was busy, Song Chaoyang called him from inside and asked him to come in.
Li Rui entered the room and saw that his boss did not know whether to laugh or cry and even looked a little angry. He was very puzzled and asked, "Boss, what's wrong with you?" Song Chaoyang pointed at the landline and said, "It's all because of Yu Heping." Li Rui asked curiously, "He called you? What is he up to this time? " Song Chaoyang sneered and said, "I don't know how he found out that the investment team of that hotel is coming tomorrow. He doesn't want me to take all the credit, so he wants to take advantage of me. He wants to send Han Song, the deputy mayor of the Municipal Government in charge of investment, to accompany the team tomorrow."
Li Rui was so shocked that his jaw dropped. He thought to himself that Yu Heping was really smart. His boss had already done the groundwork, and now that the golden phoenix was about to fly over to lay eggs, he couldn't sit still and started to snatch the phoenix egg. Who would do something like that? But it was reasonable for him to do so. After all, investment hotel was part of the Municipal Government's work. Song Chaoyang, the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, was involved in investment hotel, but he was crossing the line and stealing business from the government. Sigh, it was really disgusting.
Song Chaoyang said coldly, "He sent Han Song to receive the inspection team of that hotel company. If that hotel agrees to settle down in Qingyang, he can boast to the public that he, as the mayor, has achieved great success in establishing the Zhaoshang Hotel. If the other party doesn't agree to settle down, then he didn't put in any effort in the process. He didn't even show up, so it's not a loss. Hmph, hmph, planning within the curtains, deciding victory from a thousand miles away. He really has a good plan. "
When Li Rui heard his explanation, he felt that Yu Heping was even more hateful. He asked, "Did you agree?"
Song Chaoyang sighed and said, "I really don't want to agree, but I have no reason not to. Merchants Hotel was also a business of the Municipal Government. They had sent the Deputy Mayor, who was in charge of the business, to accompany the inspection team. What could I say? He could only agree! Hmph, look, tomorrow, the Municipal Government will be in charge of this investment promotion inspection. Alas! "
Looking at the boss's resentful and helpless expression, Li Rui once again understood that there were many things in the world that made people feel helpless, whether you were a peddler or the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. But then again, the helplessness that a person faces is inseparable from the path that they have chosen. Take the boss's case as an example. If he had not wanted to invest in a five-star hotel, this episode would not have happened. In fact, he should have considered that the business he was doing was inseparable from the Municipal Government. Sooner or later, the Municipal Government or related units would intervene.
After Song Chaoyang sighed, he said with lingering fear, "The old fox is really cunning. With one phone call, he grabbed the peach that I wanted to pick. With one word from Han Song, he decided on the distribution of the peach … Hmph, I really admire him!" After saying that, he sighed again. "Sun Yaozu, Sun Yaozu, you old fool. You have harmed yourself, and now you have harmed me. Alas!"
Li Rui wanted to laugh. Of course, the old mayor, Sun Yaozu, had nothing to do with this matter. But if he had not done such a stupid thing, the old fox, Yu Heping, would not have taken the opportunity to oust him from the mayor's seat. If he had not stepped down, Yu Heping would not have become the new mayor. If Yu Heping did not become the new mayor, he would not have caused trouble for Song Chaoyang at this time. Now that Song Chaoyang hated Yu Heping to Sun Yaozu, one could imagine how much resentment he had in his stomach. But thinking about it, anyone who was the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee would be disgusted by Yu Heping, who was so calculative and greedy for credit.
When it was time to get off work that night, Song Chaoyang was a little irritated. He asked Li Rui to find a car and go to the old Beijing Shabu Shabu restaurant in Guanmiao to eat hotpot.
When Li Rui heard this suggestion, his heart skipped a beat. Without hesitation, he said, "Then I might as well ask the Municipal Cultural Relics Bureau Chief, Zhang Mingfang, to come along. She is familiar with the boss there, so she can get a discount after eating."
He was talking nonsense. In fact, he didn't know whether Zhang Mingfang was familiar with the boss there or not. The reason why he said that was to find an excuse to invite Zhang Mingfang out. Even if Song Chaoyang knew that he asked Zhang Mingfang, the beautiful director, to come over to have a meal with him, he still had to say that. At least, he still looked good. If he did not have such an excuse, it would be too abrupt to ask Zhang Mingfang to come along. It would also push the fact that the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee needed a beautiful subordinate to accompany him for dinner to the forefront. That would be dangerous.
When Song Chaoyang heard this, he smiled and said, "Okay, I haven't seen her in a while. I miss her a lot, so I'll ask her to come along."
Li Rui immediately left the room and secretly called Zhang Mingfang. He told her about this and also told her what Song Chaoyang had said about missing her.
Zhang Mingfang was already overjoyed to be invited to dinner by the Municipal Party Committee's Secretary. When she heard that the Municipal Party Committee's Secretary had personally said that he missed her, she was both surprised and overjoyed. She was so happy that she almost went crazy. Her first thought was what to wear and how to dress up, but she did not forget to tease Li Rui, "Good brother, then did you miss me?"
Li Rui smiled and lowered his voice, "If I didn't miss you, would I ask you to come along?" Zhang Mingfang was even happier and prouder, "Brother, you're so good to me. I'll have to thank you later." Li Rui pretended to be angry and said, "Hey, aren't we good friends? Why are you saying such things? Are you slapping me in the face? "Zhang Mingfang smiled and said," Then I won't say anymore. I'll go prepare first. See you later. "Then she hurriedly hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Li Rui thought about the role he had played and secretly blushed. He felt a little ashamed, but on second thought, he did not do anything outrageous or immoral. He only gave them the opportunity to sit down and talk. He did not imply that they could have an affair or that they had to have an affair. As for how they wanted to develop their relationship, that was their business. It had nothing to do with him. Thinking about this, he smiled with embarrassment.
At 6: 30 in the evening, Song Chaoyang, Li Rui, and Zhang Mingfang met in a private room in the inner courtyard of the old Beijing Shabu Shabu restaurant in Guanmiao.
The beautiful and gracious director of the Municipal Cultural Relics Bureau had obviously dressed up deliberately. Her short hair had turned into medium-length hair that reached her shoulders. At first glance, it didn't look much different from shoulder-length hair. Her bangs were parted to reveal her fair and clear forehead. Her eyes were beautiful, and her facial features were beautiful. Her pretty face was covered in light and heavy makeup, and she had powdered her eyelids, powdered her lips, and applied lip gloss. It could be said that she was radiant and moving. She was wearing a pink blouse, a thin white suit jacket, a pair of black trousers, and a pair of black high-heeled shoes. Her exposed feet were wrapped in skin-colored stockings. Although this outfit had the style of an official's outfit, it also showed her unique charm as a female cadre. She was dignified and dignified, yet did not lose her mature beauty.
When Song Chaoyang first saw her, he was stunned. His gaze moved from her head to her feet, and then back again. Only then did a somewhat stunning smile appear on his face.
Zhang Mingfang greeted him with a smile, and affectionately held his arm as they walked to the table and sat down at the head of the table.
When Li Rui saw this beautiful and charming sister, he did not know why, but he thought of Zheng Zijuan, Li Jing, Wu Nan, and finally, Sun Shuqin's figure suddenly appeared in his mind. He was shocked, hurriedly collected his thoughts, and went forward to pour some water.
Zhang Mingfang arrived first and had already ordered the wine and food, saving the master and servant from the process of ordering.
After Song Chaoyang greeted her, he asked with a smile, "What wine did you order?" Zhang Mingfang smiled and said, "White wine. What else would I order? I ordered beer, and you said I was insincere. I ordered red wine, but they don't have it here. Besides, who would drink red wine while eating shabu? Haha. "Song Chaoyang shook his head and laughed," Why would I say you were insincere? Today's meal is not your treat. "After that, he instructed Li Rui," Xiao Rui, you'll pay for today's meal. "
Li Rui smiled and agreed. He said to Zhang Mingfang, "Sister Zhang, I invited you over for a meal today, not to let you pay the bill."
Zhang Mingfang smiled and said, "I didn't say I wanted to pay the bill. I said insincere, not sincerity of treating, but sincerity of drinking with you." Song Chaoyang finally understood. He smiled and said, "It seems that I misunderstood you. How about this, I'll punish myself with a cup of wine first."
After the wine and food were served, Li Rui poured wine for the two of them. As expected, Song Chaoyang drank a cup first. Zhang Mingfang was also very tactful and immediately drank a cup of wine with him.
Li Rui hurriedly poured wine for the two of them.
Zhang Mingfang saw that he didn't pour wine for himself and asked curiously, "Xiao Rui, you're not drinking?" Li Rui said, "Oh, I'm not drinking. I'm still driving."
He said it without thinking. In fact, it wasn't for the safety of driving. It was because he still had to go to Ding Shasha's appointment after the meal. He was worried that his brain would slow down after drinking, and it would be easy for Ding Shasha to take advantage of him. Therefore, he didn't dare to drink.
When Song Chaoyang heard this, he advised, "Then drink less. Drink two glasses. It's not far back. Just drive slowly." Li Rui smiled and said, "I'd better not drink. As a driver, drinking and not driving is also a responsibility."
