Li Rui saw this and shook his head. He did not object to Jia Yulong avoiding the training, but he felt that it was not right for Jia Yulong to not cherish such a rare training opportunity. Not only was it a huge waste of the government's public relations resources, but it was also irresponsible to the Qingyang government and the people of Qingyang. It was a typical example of using one's own selfish interests to harm the country and the people. It was really hateful.
After Jia Yulong finished distributing the nameplates, he also distributed the training stationery he had just received, which was actually just a pen and paper, to the three of them. Finally, he handed out the room cards. Holding two room cards in his hand, he looked at Li Rui and Ji Gang and said, "You guys heard it just now. For this training, every two students will stay in one room, and they will stay in this Tian Xiang International Hotel. However, there are three of us. Of course, I'm not included. I'm not staying here. It's the two of you plus Old Zhang. Therefore, two of you will be allocated a luxurious room, while the other person will have to share a room with a student from another city. Which one of you wants to stay with the other? "
Li Rui and Ji Gang looked at each other. Ji Gang did not say anything and quickly turned his head away. It was obvious that he did not want to stay with a student from another city. In this kind of situation, everyone would want to stay with their own people. They would not want to stay with strangers.
Li Ruixin thought that since Ji Gang did not want to choose, then he would choose. Anyway, he would not be staying in the hotel at night. He would either be at Zixuan's house or Zhang Zixiao's house. He raised his hand and said, "Give it to me. I want to stay with a student from another city."
Jia Yulong did not know what he was thinking. He thought that Li Rui was helping Ji Gang. He praised him in his heart. The Municipal Party Committee's First Secretary was indeed the Municipal Party Committee's First Secretary. Even if Ji Gang was promoted to the Deputy Director of the General Office, he was still not as good as Jia Yulong. Jia Yulong smiled and said, "Okay, Xiao Rui is not bad." He handed the room card to Li Rui and the other room card to Ji Gang.
After the official business was done, Old Merchant chuckled contentedly. He instructed the three of them, "From now on, you guys should focus on your training. If there's anything you want to discuss, just give me a call. I'm also in the provincial capital." Then, he solemnly instructed the driver, Old Zhang, "You must listen to Director Ji and Director Li's arrangements. Don't be too enthusiastic in class, and don't be too dull. Don't let the teachers get suspicious, okay?"
Old Zhang smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mayor Jia. I won't cause you trouble."
Only then was Jia Yulong satisfied. He waved his hand and said, "Let's go. You guys go to your rooms. I'm leaving now. If there's anything, call me."
When the four of them were about to walk to the elevator hall, they suddenly heard the pleasant sound of high heels walking. Then, a woman walked from the direction of the elevator hall. She was thirty-six or thirty-seven years old, about 1.7 meters tall, with a slender figure, short hair that reached her shoulders, snow-white skin, and an elegant appearance. Although she was dressed in a simple suit and high heels, it could not hide her beauty and elegant temperament at all. It was really unforgettable. It was worth mentioning that she also had the standard lanyard nameplate for this training on her neck. Obviously, she was also a member of this training.
Li Rui and the other three men suddenly saw such a beauty walking over. Their eyes all lit up and they could not help but look at her.
Among the four of them, Jia Yulong's expression was the most abnormal. His face was stunned and his feet could not move. He looked at the woman in a daze. His eyes followed her as she walked, as if they had been glued to her body.
Li Rui noticed his reaction. He thought to himself that this Jia Yulong was too lecherous. In any case, he was an executive deputy mayor. Even if he had taken a fancy to her, he could not show such a lecherous expression in public. Wouldn't that be a joke? But then again, this woman was really beautiful. Although she was almost forty years old, she was still beautiful and did not look old at all. Coupled with her unique mature feminine charm, she was even more charming. It was not an exaggeration to say that even if Zixuan stood next to her, they would only be evenly matched.
When the woman saw Li Rui and the other three men, it was as if she saw air. She did not even look at them. Her expression was cold and inviolable. She had already walked to the entrance of the conference center with the sound of her high heels.
When the staff at the entrance saw her, no matter if they were standing or sitting at the table, they all stood up and greeted her, "Director Zhang!" "Director Zhang, you're here!"
The woman nodded at them and asked, "Is everyone here?" Her voice was elegant and very pleasant to the ears.
When Jia Yulong heard this, he whispered, "Those staff were sent by the provincial government, but they all call this woman Director Zhang. Could this woman be the deputy director of the provincial government?"
No one answered his question. The main reason was that no one knew what he was thinking. Moreover, he was talking about a beautiful woman. It was not easy to continue the conversation.
Li Ruixin was secretly amused. It seemed that Jia Yulong was mesmerized by Director Zhang. He was already trying to figure out her background. This was not a good sign.
Seeing that no one answered, Jia Yulong asked again, "Is the deputy director of the provincial government's general office also participating in the training?"
Ji Gang added, "That's possible. Anyway, the training is organized by the provincial government's general office. They have the advantage of being in a favorable position. They can send whoever they want to participate in the training."
Jia Yulong looked at Director Zhang thoughtfully and walked towards the elevator lobby. Li Rui and the other two followed behind him.
On the way, Jia Yulong muttered to himself, "The provincial government's secretary-general is personally organizing the training. The deputy director of the provincial government's general office is also participating in the training. From this, it seems that the provincial government is taking this training very seriously. Hmm, let's see if Director Zhang will be participating in the training. If she is participating, she might have been instructed by the provincial leaders to supervise the training. Then, I can't find someone to impersonate her. Otherwise, if I'm found out, I might be scolded by the provincial leaders. "
When Li Rui and Ji Gang heard this, they looked at each other and found it funny. This Mayor Jia obviously had his eyes on the beautiful Director Zhang and wanted to get closer to her. For this reason, he did not hesitate to change his original plan of skipping classes. However, he had to find a dignified excuse to say that she was here to supervise the training. Haha, what a joke.
When they reached the elevator lobby, Old Zhang pressed the up and down buttons. Jia Yulong turned to Li Rui and Ji Gang and said, "Help me keep an eye on Director Zhang. See if she is really the deputy director of the provincial government's general office and if she is really participating in the training. If she is, you must tell me so that I can't skip classes anymore."
Li Rui and Ji Gang held back their laughter and nodded seriously.
The four of them parted ways in the elevator lobby. Jia Yulong went downstairs to enjoy the city while Li Rui, Ji Gang, and the other two went upstairs to the guest rooms.
No one spoke on the way. When they reached their respective rooms, they swiped their cards and entered to unpack their luggage.
When Li Rui entered the room, he saw a man talking on the phone in front of the window. When the man heard Li Rui entering the room, he turned around and saw Li Rui looking at him. The two of them happened to meet face to face. It was fine if they did not meet face to face, but when they met face to face, both of them were shocked.
"Hiss … Why is it him?"
That was Li Rui's first thought when he recognized the man. His heart was filled with surprise, shock, regret, depression, and displeasure. The man was none other than the deputy secretary-general of the Eastern State Municipal Government, Lu Liangang.
Previously, Li Rui was invited by the mayor of the Eastern State, Wu Nan, to go to the Eastern State to train local poverty alleviation cadres. He did not expect to be involved in the fight between the deputy mayor of the Eastern State Zhou Yulin and Wu Nan. Zhou Yulin wanted to use the poverty alleviation training as an opportunity to suppress Wu Nan. Therefore, he sent his trusted aide, the deputy secretary-general of the municipal government, Lu Liangang, to the training site to chase Li Rui and the others away. This was to disrupt the normal training order and destroy Wu Nan's prestige. Although Li Rui later used his own connections and cooperated with Wu Nan to defeat Zhou Yulin and Lu Liangang's scheme and get back at them, there was still a grudge between him and Lu Liangang. However, one of them was in Qingyang while the other was in the Eastern State. Even if there was a grudge between them, there was nothing they could do to each other. Therefore, the grudge was not obvious. But today, the two of them had miraculously met again in the provincial capital. Wasn't this like enmity between enemies?
Li Rui recognized Lu Liangang. Although he was unhappy, he did not show any expression on his face. However, Lu Liangang was different. After he recognized Li Rui, his face darkened as if he had seen his father's murderer. He stopped calling and looked at him with a gloomy face.
Li Ruixin sneered. Lu Liangang was the deputy secretary-general, but he did not even know how to act subtly. Even if there was a grudge between them, it was not a big one. If you don't want to smile at me, you don't have to show me this face. You make it look like I killed your father. Hmph, hmph. Well, since you don't have the bearing, then let me show you my bearing. He smiled and took the initiative to greet him, "Secretary-general Roux, how are you? We meet again."
At this time, Lu Liangang had already seen the hanging rope nameplate around his neck. He was also here for training and wanted to share a room with him. He snorted and said unhappily, "Why do I see you everywhere?" Li Rui smiled and said, "This shows that we are fated to meet." Lu Liangang did not bother to pay attention to him anymore. He walked towards the door and said to himself with a cold face, "I really don't know how the training organizer arranged the rooms. They didn't look at the level and just randomly put them together …" As he spoke, he had already walked out.
