Ji Fei joked, "Director Shen, are you dressed so beautifully for a blind date?" Shen Yuanzhu wasn't afraid of this kind of joke at all. She smiled and came to the table, "With whom? Did Director Ji introduce you? "Ji Fei laughed and said," Yes, I introduced you. I introduced you to Brother Li. "Shen Yuanzhu laughed and said," Director Ji, don't joke around. How could Director Li like me? "
Ji Fei said, "Brother, it's time for you to say something. Tell Director Shen, are you interested in her or not?" Li Rui had long since learned to make such vulgar jokes. He laughed, "Not only am I interested in Director Shen, but I also admire Director Shen. I just hope that Director Shen won't look down on me. "
Shen Yuanzhu pretended to laugh regretfully, "Ai, what a pity. If I were ten years younger, I would definitely go on a blind date with Director Li." Ji Fei said, "You're not old now. I think you're only two years older than Brother Li. You two can consider it. Haha, haha."
Li Ruiqi said, "Is Director Shen still single?" Ji Fei laughed loudly, "I didn't think that our Brother Li would really be moved. Director Shen, do you have confidence now?"
Shen Yuanzhu was amused, "Director Li, if you're really interested in me, then I'll have to get a divorce for you, haha."
The three of them joked around and became closer to each other. The atmosphere in the private room quickly became lively. Although there were only three of them, they created a lively scene with seven or eight people. This was the charm of a beautiful woman.
Li Rui personally poured tea for Shen Yuanzhu. Shen Yuanzhu smiled sweetly at him to express her gratitude. Ji Fei passed the menu to Li Rui for him to order. Li Rui passed it to Shen Yuanzhu. Shen Yuanzhu returned it to Ji Fei. The three of them turned the menu around in their hands, but they didn't order a single dish.
In the end, Ji Fei gave a strict order that everyone had to order two dishes. Only then did they finish ordering.
After ordering all the dishes, all that was left was to order some drinks.
Ji Fei laughed and said, "What a joke, which blind traffic police dares to stop our Bureau's Director?" Shen Yuanzhu said, "It's not the Bureau's Director, it's the Deputy Director." Ji Fei said, "Sooner or later, haha." After that, he ordered a bottle of Wuliangye (Wuliangye Liquor).
To be honest, until now, Li Rui still didn't know why Ji Fei called Shen Yuanzhu over. According to him, Shen Yuanzhu came over because he came over to eat with her. But if he didn't tell her first, she wouldn't have known. From this, it could be inferred that he already had the idea of inviting her over to have a meal with him. But why was he doing this? Could it be that he thought that Shen Yuanzhu had a warm relationship with him and that he would be happier with her company? If that was the case, then he was wrong. He and Shen Yuanzhu were friends, but they didn't have any warm feelings. At most, they only spent a night together in Hei Yao Gou Village.
After the food and drinks were served, the three of them started to eat and drink. They chatted and laughed, making the atmosphere lively.
Li Rui took a break and asked, "Brother Ji, may I ask how old are you this year?" Ji Fei stretched out five fingers on his left hand and three fingers on his right hand. Li Rui muttered to himself, "Fifty-three …" Then he suddenly thought of something and said, "According to our Qingyang City's regulations, a Deputy Director can retire at the age of fifty-three. Isn't it about time for you to retire?" Ji Fei laughed twice and said, "Isn't that right? It'll be my turn soon." Li Rui sighed and said: "I always feel that our Qingyang City's regulations regarding the retirement of cadres is a bit too much. In other provinces, there is a standard for the Division Heads and Deputy Division Heads to retire at the age of 55. There are also some places that give Deputy Division Heads more preferential treatment and can only retire at the age of 57. Why does our Qingyang City have to retire at the age of 53? Isn't this healing speed a little too fast? "
Ji Fei explained, "In order to implement the decision of the Provincial Party Committee's Organization Department on the retirement of the second-line cadres, the city created a unique management method with Qingyang City's characteristics. They retired a few years earlier than other cities, so as to create an atmosphere of Qingyang City's Party and government officials being replaced quickly, with young blood, and always full of vitality. At that time, this management method was well-known throughout the province. The Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee has even commended our city. " Li Rui smiled bitterly and said, "There's no need to think about it. This must be a decision made by one's brain. Some city leaders wanted to take credit in front of the provincial party committee and made an unrealistic decision in haste. They only care about themselves being valued by their superiors and completely ignore the life and death of their subordinates. "
Ji Fei nodded and said, "It's not as scary as' disregarding life and death 'as you said, but it is indeed unfair to certain officials." Li Rui said, "Old Brother Ji, you're actually not old at all. You're very capable and your overall qualities are also very high. Looking at the entire city's Public Security Bureau, the leader I admire the most is you. I've learned a lot from you. It's a pity that you're retiring at this age. Sigh. " Ji Fei was extremely happy with his praise and raised his wine glass and said, "Since you think so highly of me, we brothers should also drink."
The two men clinked their glasses and then drank. Shen Yuanzhu took the bottle and stood up to fill the two men's glasses.
Ji Fei sighed and said, "Old Brother, I'm very happy that you're praising me, but you're overpraising me. There are many people in the bureau who are more capable than me. For example, Chief Wang Gang, who is in charge of criminal investigation, is younger than me by a few years, but his brain is much better than mine. " Compared to them, I'm still far behind. "Li Rui laughed," Old Brother Ji, there's no need to belittle yourself. Everyone has seen your ability. I dare say that there's no one who hasn't admired you. An expert like you should really continue to stay in the Municipal Bureau and make greater contributions. " Ji Fei looked at Shen Yuanzhu and laughed, "Old Brother, you really think too highly of me. I, Ji Fei, am very clear about my own abilities. Moreover, I'm already old enough. The most I can do in this life is to be a Deputy Chief. I'm already satisfied with that. Haha, come, let's drink and eat. Eat more. "
Li Rui originally thought that the reason why he invited him to dinner today was because he wanted to use him as a shortcut to get closer to his boss, Song Chaoyang, so that he could improve himself. Only now did he know that Li Rui had already passed the age limit (50 years old) for promotion, and secondly, Li Rui had no intention of improving himself. It seemed that he had thought wrongly. Thus, he didn't talk much about Li Rui's position and changed the topic to a more relaxed one.
During the meal, Ji Fei received a call and went out with his phone. Only Li Rui and Shen Yuanzhu were left in the private room.
The two of them looked at each other and Shen Yuanzhu smiled sweetly at him. This woman's face turned red after drinking. When she first arrived, her face was still as white as jade. After drinking a glass of wine, her face turned red all the way to her ears. Her pretty face was rosy and bright. Coupled with her big watery eyes, she looked quite charming.
Li Rui saw this and secretly praised her. He thought that this woman's age could change. After drinking, she actually looked so much younger. Even the crow's feet at the corner of her eyes couldn't be seen. He laughed and asked, "Why do you only listen to me and Chief Ji? Why don't you speak?" Shen Yuanzhu laughed and said, "How can a small fry like me have the right to speak when the leaders are talking?" Li Rui sneered and said, "Don't tease me. Chief Ji is a real leader. "Shen Yuanzhu smiled and said," To be invited by Chief Ji for a meal, you're not a leader but a leader better than a leader. "Li Rui raised his glass and laughed," What a good 'not a leader but a leader better than a leader'! Come, Director Shen, let me toast you. Thank you for taking care of me before. "
Shen Yuanzhu didn't argue and raised her glass to toast with him. She watched as Li Rui drank the wine in his glass in one gulp, but she only took a big gulp.
Li Rui saw that she didn't drink, so he deliberately put his glass in front of her and turned it upside down. He said loudly, "Aren't you embarrassed to drink with me?" Shen Yuanzhu saw that he was provoking her and said angrily, "I still have to drive later. I don't dare to drink too much. I'm almost drunk now. Director Li, please spare me, hehe. "Li Rui saw that she was weak and easily bullied, so he didn't spare her. He laughed and said," Just drink. At most, I'll drive you back later. "Shen Yuanzhu said," You said it. Don't wait until I'm drunk and then leave me alone. "Li Rui laughed and said," Am I that kind of person? "
Shen Yuanzhu glanced at him charmingly and drank all the wine in her glass.
Li Rui picked up a piece of "red wine and pear" and placed it on her plate. "Eat a bite to get rid of the smell of alcohol." He picked up the wine bottle and filled her glass, then filled his own glass as well.
Shen Yuanzhu ate half a piece and asked with a smile, "Director Li, why didn't you bring your wife?" Li Rui said, "The three of us are old comrades gathering together. Why would we bring our wives? You didn't bring your husband either, right? "Shen Yuanzhu laughed and said," I didn't bring my husband because my husband isn't presentable. Director Li's wife must be young and beautiful. You should bring her over so we can get to know each other. "Li Rui laughed and said," I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. I don't have a wife right now. "Shen Yuanzhu was stunned for a moment and then laughed and said," Are you kidding me? Don't tease me! "Li Rui laughed and said," I think you're the one who's joking. Why would I tease you? "Shen Yuanzhu said incredulously," How is that possible? You don't have a wife? "Li Rui said," Is that hard to accept? " Shen Yuanzhu nodded and said, "You're so young and so handsome. You're also a leader of the Municipal Party Committee. What kind of woman can't you find? I can't believe you don't have a wife. "
Li Rui smiled but didn't say anything. Shen Yuanzhu was full of curiosity about this matter. Her beautiful eyes stared at him as if she wanted to see through his thoughts.
Ji Fei finished the call and returned to the room. He didn't say anything and just sighed.
