After Du Minsheng left, Song Chaoyang muttered to himself in shame, "Why did I think of making a superficial seal just now?"
Li Rui said, "No …"
Song Chaoyang sighed, "The business circle hasn't been built yet, and I'm already thinking of changing its name. If this isn't a superficial seal, then what is it? Aiya, I'm looking for grandiose achievements again. Luckily, Xiao Rui and Minsheng stopped me. Otherwise, it would have caused a disaster. Why did I think that way? "
Li Rui smiled and said, "Everyone has times when their thinking is rigid or leaps and bounds. You don't have to blame yourself."
Song Chaoyang sighed and said, "From my mistake, you can see that it's hard for people to always keep a clear mind. It's okay for ordinary people. If they make a wrong decision, it will at most affect one person or a family. But if a leader makes a mistake, like me, the top leader of a place, it will harm an entire city and millions of people. This also shows the importance of aides and colleagues. When a leader makes a mistake, the aides and colleagues have to point it out immediately and correct it. They can't just let it go. Xiao Rui, you have to remember this. You have to help me correct my mistakes at any time. "
Li Rui agreed and flattered him again, "Actually, Boss, you rarely make mistakes. The number of mistakes you've made can be counted on one hand."
Song Chaoyang smiled bitterly and pointed at him. He returned to his desk and sat down to continue working.
At around eight o 'clock in the evening, Li Rui was free. He called Xie Duzhong and asked him to meet him at Shengjing Hotel so that he could introduce him to Song Xiuxiu. Then, he took a taxi and rushed over.
After meeting, Li Rui found that Xie Peilan was also there. He didn't know what the siblings had discussed, so he looked at Xie Duzhong in confusion.
Xie Duzhong explained, "I've discussed it with my sister. When we meet Soo Soo, she will hide at the side and look at Soo Soo's appearance. When I get familiar with Soo Soo, I'll introduce her to Soo Soo."
Li Rui smiled and said to Xie Peilan, "I still don't know where to meet Xiu Xiu. If she's still at work, then we'll meet in the lobby on the first floor. If she's already off work and returned to the dormitory, then we'll meet in the dormitory in the backyard. You'd better think about it. Where will you hide when the time comes?"
Xie Peilan said indifferently, "I don't need to deliberately avoid you. No matter where you meet, I will just follow you. At most, when you stop, I will continue walking and pretend to be a passerby. As long as I can see Xiuxiu's appearance, that is enough."
Li Rui nodded and said, "Okay, then let's go in now. Pei Lan, you stay a few meters behind us and follow us." As he said that, he walked towards the hotel's main entrance. Xie Duzhong followed closely behind like a shadow.
Xie Peilan pursed her lips and smiled, slowly following behind.
Li Rui did not have Song Xiuxiu's phone number, so if he wanted to find her, he had to go through the hotel's staff. He went straight to the lobby counter and asked the manager on duty for Song Xiuxiu's whereabouts. The female manager used her headset to ask the staff and found out that Song Xiuxiu had just brought a guest to the guest room on the first floor and would come down after a while. Li Rui thanked the manager and sat down on the sofa in the lobby's reception area with Xie Duzhong to wait.
Xie Peilan sat at another small table and distanced herself from the two, pretending as if she did not know them.
After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, Song Xiuxiu's figure appeared outside the elevator lobby. Li Rui saw her from afar and asked Xie Duzhong to get up and walk towards her. When he passed by Xie Peilan, he whispered to her, "Soo Soo is coming down. I'll find a way to bring her over to talk. You sit down and don't move."
Xie Peilan nodded and looked in the direction where the two were walking.
When Li Rui brought Xie Duzhong near Song Xiuxiu, Song Xiuxiu also recognized him. She was very happy to see him. A smile appeared on her beautiful face. She stopped and called out, "Uncle!"
Li Rui stopped in front of her and said, "You're not off work yet?" Song Xiuxiu nodded and said, "I'll be busy for a while." Li Rui said, "I'll talk to you for a while. It won't delay your work, right?" Song Xiuxiu said shyly and honestly, "If it's just a few words, then say it. If you talk too much, then you can only wait for me to get off work. I just came to the hotel and I don't want people to think that I … I always don't work. "
After she said this, she saw Xie Duzhong beside Li Rui and recognized him as the person who was with Li Rui last night. He even spoke up for her, so she smiled politely at him.
Xie Duzhong saw her smiling face and was a little confused. He said slowly, "Hello … Xiu … Xiu Xiu!"
Li Rui took the opportunity to introduce the two of them. He also understood why Xie Duzhong was attracted to Song Xiuxiu. Song Xiuxiu was young and beautiful, but the clothes she used to wear were the standard of the village, so she didn't look very beautiful. But now, she was wearing the hotel's standard dress and the standard white collar fashion. She was a beautiful white collar beauty in the city. It was no wonder that the young and hot-blooded Xie Duzhong fell in love with her at first sight and didn't care about her sad past.
After the two of them introduced themselves, Li Rui said to Song Xiuxiu, "Xiuxiu, let's go to the guest area and talk. I'll say a few words."
Song Xiuxiu nodded and followed him to the guest area.
Xie Duzhong followed behind the two of them and stared at Song Xiuxiu's back. The fondness on his face became more and more obvious. It was obvious that he fell in love with Song Xiuxiu at first sight because of Song Xiuxiu's appearance. Of course, this was human nature. Which man didn't love beautiful women? As long as a woman was beautiful enough, all her flaws could be ignored. At the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, Chen Yuanyuan was with so many men, but in the end, wasn't she snatched by Wu Sangui and Li Zicheng?
When they arrived at the guest area, Li Rui guessed that Xie Peilan could see Song Xiuxiu's appearance clearly, so he started to talk about business, "Xiuxiu, that Zhang Xiaoyan and Guo Hai didn't come to harass you again, right?" Song Xiuxiu shook her head and said with a sad face, "No." Li Rui said, "Okay, I'll leave you my phone number. If they dare to harass you again, call me and I'll take care of them. Of course, if you encounter any trouble in the future, you can look for me at any time. Don't be polite with me. "Song Xiuxiu said," Thank you, uncle. You're so kind. "
Li Rui told her his phone number. After she memorized it, he said, "I came to see you on the way home. There's nothing else. You can go back to work. I won't delay your work." After he finished speaking, he gave Xie Duzhong a look, indicating that he could leave.
Song Xiuxiu happened to be receiving guests at the main entrance, so she sent the two to the door.
Li Rui and Xie Duzhong sat in the car. After waiting for two minutes, Xie Peilan also returned to the car.
Xie Duzhong asked his sister, "Sister, do you think Xiuxiu is okay?" Xie Peilan said seriously, "It's not 'okay' anymore. It's very good. She's beautiful and has a good figure. Your sister, I, am ashamed of myself. I also observed that she's very shy. She's an honest girl. Nowadays, girls like her who are handsome and honest are basically extinct. At least, you can't find one in the city. I want to congratulate you. You've found a treasure. If you like her, go after her quickly. Don't be late and let other men take her away. "
Xie Duzhong heard his sister give such high praise. He laughed until his eyelashes bloomed. He turned around and complained to Li Rui, "Brother, why didn't you let me talk to Xiuxiu more?"
Li Rui laughed, "Didn't you see that Xiuxiu is working the main shift? You don't need to work the night shift. Besides, you two just met. What do you have to talk about? Have you thought about what to say to her? "
Xie Duzhong thought for a while and said, "I won't stay in Qingyang Hotel tomorrow. I'll stay in Shengjing Hotel and let Xiuxiu receive me personally. I'll find a chance to talk to her more. Also, brother, when are you going to treat Xiuxiu to a meal? Let me sit with her and create a chance for me to get close to her. Or, let's not play these tricks. I'll confess to Xiuxiu directly. It'll be best if she agrees to be my girlfriend. It's also fine if she doesn't agree. I'll chase her. Even if I have to pester her, I'll get her. "
Li Rui was stunned. He didn't expect his love for Xiuxiu to be so intense. He looked back at Xie Peilan and saw her face was also full of disbelief.
"Uh, it's not impossible to confess directly. I have a sister who was confessed to before. But her situation was a bit special, so she readily agreed. As for Xiuxiu, I'm not too sure. But you can try. But you have to consider carefully. Xiuxiu is an introverted and shy girl. She may not be used to this kind of sudden confession. "
Li Rui expressed his opinion. Although he was happy to see Xie Duzhong and Song Xiuxiu get married, this kind of thing can't be rushed.
Xie Duzhong said, "I'll move to Shengjing Hotel tomorrow." After that, he said to Xie Peilan, "Sister, you go back to Huangzhou City tomorrow. I won't go back for now. I'll be using the car. You can take the train back. It's faster. " Xie Peilan rolled her eyes at him from the rearview mirror and said, "Brat, you haven't gotten married yet. You're only chasing after her and don't care about your sister? If you get married, won't you not care about your sister anymore? " Xie Duzhong laughed and said, "Mom has Dad to dote on her. Sister, you should be doted on by Brother-in-law. Who asked you to not get married? No one will dote on you. Don't blame me." Xie Peilan said, "See how I'll complain to Dad and Mom when I get back!"
Li Rui smiled and asked, "Peilan, are you really leaving tomorrow?" Xie Peilan said, "Yes. Teacher Sun has finished teaching. There's nothing else to do here in Qingyang. I'll go back first." Li Rui said, "Then I'll help you buy the train ticket?" Xie Peilan quickly said, "No need. I'll go to the train station tomorrow and buy it myself. It's easy to buy the ticket to Huangzhou City. The trains going south all pass through Huangzhou City." Li Rui said, "It's a pity that I have to go to work tomorrow morning. I don't have time to send you off." Xie Peilan smiled and said, "No need. We're old friends.
"Old friends?" Xie Duzhong suddenly said, "Aiya, this is bad. Brother, you see that we're friends now. But if I marry Xiuxiu, won't I have to follow her seniority and call you Uncle?"
