Xu Gengnian shook his head and said, "Yu Heping would like to, but his power is mediocre, and no one in the province will speak up for him, so he can only continue to be the mayor." He then continued, "After the May Day holiday, Wu Nan will probably go to Qingyang to work. If you feel that you have a certain level of friendship with her, then you can take the initiative to contact her and congratulate her in the name of reporting your work. You can try to get her attention as soon as possible. If you feel that your friendship is mediocre, then you can wait. After she works, she will definitely go down to the county to investigate. It won't be too late for you to meet her when she arrives at your county. In short, even if you have your father-in-law watching over you, you still have to do your best. After all, the county magistrate is not as good as the current one. If you do your best, not only will you be able to work faster, but you also won't have to trouble your father-in-law all the time. Let your father-in-law think highly of you. "
At this point, he laughed and said, "Haha, saying this makes it seem like you don't have a close relationship with your father-in-law, but it's not just father-in-law and son-in-law. Even if you're father and son, when the son's social skills are good and his career is smooth sailing, won't the father be happy and proud? If the son always troubles the father with big and small matters, how can the father be happy? "
As a high ranking official in the province, Xu Gengnian was naturally not a talkative person. The reason why he said so much to Li Rui was because he had a close relationship with Li Rui. Whether it was the relationship between his beloved wife, Li Xiaona, and Li Rui, the relationship between his son, Xu Da, and Li Rui, or his relationship with Li Rui's father-in-law … no matter how one looked at it, he and Li Rui were not outsiders. Therefore, whenever there was an opportunity, he would sincerely advise Li Rui and help him develop faster and better. Of course, if he knew the relationship between Li Rui and Wu Nan, then he wouldn't have said the latter part.
Li Rui smiled and said, "Yes, thank you for your advice, big brother. I know what to do."
"You're here. Let's go, let's go before the wedding starts and become sworn brothers!"
Long Baoyu hurriedly ran out of the hall. When she saw Li Rui, she didn't say anything and pulled him inside. Li Rui hurriedly said goodbye to Xu Gengnian and was dragged to the inner lounge.
Ten minutes later, in a small resting room, under the witness of Qingman, Zixuan, Yang Qingqing, Xie Peilan, and other good friends, Li Rui, Xu Da, Xie Duzhong, and Long Baoyu, all four of them offered incense, kowtowed, and became sworn brothers. Among the four brothers, Li Rui was the oldest, so naturally he was the eldest. Xu Da was the second oldest, so he was the second oldest. Xie Duzhong was slightly older than Long Baoyu, so he was the third oldest. Long Baoyu was the youngest, so he was the fourth brother. Of course, after Long Baoyu, there was also Ding Shasha, who was the fifth sister. However, among the brothers, he was the youngest one.
Long Baoyu was a little depressed about this and muttered, "Three more brothers! Hmph, if I knew that I was the youngest and had to call everyone brother, I wouldn't have become sworn brothers with you guys. "
His words made everyone laugh. Li Rui put an arm around his shoulder and laughed, "Isn't it good to have three more brothers? The three of us have to let you go and protect you in the future. Don't take advantage of us! "
When Long Baoyu heard this, he thought of something and said sneakily, "If I meet any more beauties, you guys have to let me go. No one is allowed to fight with me."
Li Rui was speechless. He thought to himself that this was really a pure playboy. How could he still think of beauties at this time? Were his brain cells directly connected to his lower body?
When Long Baoyu mentioned beauties, he thought of another person. He pulled him out of the resting room and asked in a low voice, "Oh right, why didn't Meidian come? Didn't you invite her? "
Li Rui answered vaguely, "Yes, she doesn't have a close relationship with your second brother, so he didn't invite her."
Long Baoyu complained, "Then why didn't you bring her here? I still want to woo her. "
Li Rui rolled his eyes and pinched his shoulder. He whispered, "I've already told you. If you really love her and want to be good to her for the rest of your life, then I'll support you in your pursuit of her. But if you're just playing, then forget it. Don't cheat my sister."
"Wow, another beauty is here. This plate is so beautiful, and the lines are so smooth …"
Long Baoyu suddenly realized that there was a tall and graceful beauty at the entrance of the banquet hall. His eyes lit up and he immediately ignored Li Rui's existence.
Li Rui didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard his dirty words. He followed his line of sight. He wouldn't have known if he didn't look, but after seeing it, his heart couldn't stop beating. How could the beauty who had just entered the banquet hall be someone else? It was Zhang Zixiao.
Zhang Zixiao was dressed elegantly today. Logically speaking, she wouldn't attract the attention of a playboy like Long Baoyu, but her temperament was too outstanding. Her figure was too good, and her face was unparalleled. Even if she dressed up as a beggar, she would still attract the attention of all the men. Her beautiful hair was pulled up into a bun on top of her head, revealing her smooth, snow-white forehead. She looked young and neat. She wore a bright silver camisole and a light cyan small suit on the outside. Her chest was open, revealing her sharp breasts. She wore a pair of moon-white slim-cut straight trousers, revealing an inch of her slender, fair ankles. Her curvy ankles were covered by a pair of dark blue pointy high heels. She carried a white handbag in her hand and walked into the banquet hall like a model. She immediately formed the most beautiful scenery, attracting all the "lecherous men" like Long Baoyu.
When Li Rui saw Zhang Zixiao's outfit and her expressionless, fair, and tender face, he didn't know what to feel. He had already expected that Zhang Zixiao would also appear at Xu Da's wedding, because she had come on behalf of her father, Zhang Gaosong, when Xu Gengnian and Li Xiaona got married. He had also thought about how to deal with her if he saw her at the wedding. But now that he suddenly saw her in person, he still felt a little lost. He was stunned for a while, then patted Long Baoyu's shoulder and said, "I'm going to the bathroom. You can play by yourself." After saying that, he walked out from the nearest exit.
After walking out of the banquet hall, Li Rui walked around in a big circle, but couldn't find any private place to talk. He had no choice but to go up two floors in the stairwell. After stopping, he took out his mobile phone and called Zhang Zixiao.
The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up. Maybe because the banquet hall was too noisy, Zhang Zixiao's slightly excited voice sounded from the other end, "Where are you?"
Li Rui said, "Go out of the banquet hall and find the stairwell outside. After you go in, go up two floors. I'll wait for you at the top."
Zhang Zixiao whispered, "I knew you would come. Wait for me. I just came in, so it's not good for me to go out immediately. I'll say hello to my acquaintances first. About ten minutes."
Li Rui smiled bitterly. If he had known that he would have to wait for so long, he wouldn't have come out in advance. But since he was already here, he could only wait.
After hanging up the phone, Li Rui put his mobile phone into his pocket. He was excited. Although he and Zhang Zixiao had been married for a long time, it was still difficult for him to suppress the excitement in his heart to meet Zhang Zixiao in such an environment. Sometimes, he felt guilty for letting Zhang Zixiao and Qingman down. Many times, he wished that the past between him and Zhang Zixiao was a hazy dream. In that case, it wouldn't hurt Zhang Zixiao, and it wouldn't delay her life. But unfortunately, it wasn't a dream. Everything happened in reality, and the future he didn't want to see was also in the process of happening. Alas, what a sin!
He waited and waited. Ten minutes was longer than ten days at this moment. Li Rui couldn't control his thoughts. He was so agitated that he was about to explode. Just when he was about to collapse, the rhythmic sound of high heels came from downstairs. His heart skipped a beat, and all the agitation in his heart disappeared. It was replaced by incomparable warmth and happiness.
"Honey!"
"Honey!"
Before Zhang Zixiao reached the platform on this floor, she was still at the bottom of the stairs. She smiled and looked up at Li Rui, who was in her line of sight. Li Rui couldn't wait and quickly ran down the stairs. As he called out "honey," he greeted her at the middle of the stairs. He opened his arms and hugged her deeply.
The two hugged tightly. They were so strong that it was as if they wanted to merge with each other's bodies. After a while, they turned their heads to look at each other at the same time. After looking at each other and smiling, they turned their heads and kissed at the same time …
After a while, the two reluctantly separated from each other and walked up the stairs hand in hand. Zhang Zixiao didn't say anything. She took out a pack of tissues from her bag and carefully wiped off the remaining rose red lip gloss on Li Rui's lips. Li Rui saw her focused and gentle expression. His heart was filled with love. He couldn't help but reach out his hands, hold her waist, and pull her into his arms.
"I heard that Song Chaoyang was fired. Did it affect you?"
After Zhang Zixiao cleaned up the traces on Li Rui's mouth, she looked at him affectionately with her beautiful eyes and asked him such a question.
Li Rui was silently moved. He had to say that she was one of his own. Usually, everything was fine, so he didn't feel anything. However, when something big or small happened, her caring and considerate heart came out. He shook his head and said, "It almost didn't affect me. Don't worry."
Zhang Zixiao smiled and looked at him for a while. Her smile faded and she said, "Recently, my family has been rushing me. I'm really getting on in years. I have to do what I told you before and put on a show. You have to be mentally prepared."
Li Rui asked, "Have you found someone?"
Zhang Zixiao nodded and said, "Yes. I found two suitable candidates. I haven't decided who to choose yet. Why don't you help me choose? After all, they have to pretend to be you for the next one or two years. You have to be at ease. "
Li Rui smiled bitterly. What was this called? His woman had to find a fake husband to put on a show and he had to make the choice himself. Was this a joke or sarcasm? He said, "You can choose. Just choose an honest and honest one. The pay is not a problem. I'll transfer the money to your account later."
