Sun Yaozu waved his hand and walked towards Song Chaoyang's office. "You do what you need to do. Don't worry about me. I'm just looking for Chaoyang for a chat. Ha, go do what you need to do."
Li Rui was shocked. Song Chaoyang was talking to Xiao Dawei and Du Minsheng about sending an investigation team. It seemed that they would send the team secretly and would not let the other members of the Municipal Party Committee know about it, let alone the Municipal Government. But if Sun Yaozu suddenly barged in, how could it be called a secret? What would Sun Yaozu think if he heard it? If something like that really happened, how could he, as a secretary, guard the door? What would Song Chaoyang think?
Thinking of this, he was so scared that a layer of sweat appeared on his back. No wonder his teacher, Yuan Xiaodi, once said that reception work was one of the most difficult jobs. He did not believe it before, but now he believed it. If he could not handle this situation properly, he would get into trouble. Who knows, he might not be the secretary tomorrow …
Li Rui did not dare to think about it anymore. He quickly went around the desk and greeted Sun Yaozu. He raised his voice and said, "Mayor Sun, can I help you inform Song Shuji?" His voice was not soft but not very loud either. He believed that even if Song Chaoyang could not hear it, Du Minsheng, who was always sensitive, would hear it.
Sun Yaozu was about three or four steps away from the door. He said, "There's no need. Are Chaoyang and I still outsiders? Ha. " Li Rui saw that he could not stop him. He had no choice but to take a step forward and reach for the door handle. He said loudly, "Then I'll open the door for you." Sun Yaozu stopped and looked at him with a smile. "Hmm, Xiao Li, not bad."
Li Rui slowly opened the door and shouted, "Song Shuji, Mayor Sun is here." After saying this, he pushed the door open completely. He saw that the three people in the room had come out to greet him. He was relieved. Oh my God, this Sun Yaozu is too much. How could he just walk in without saying anything? He even wanted to force his way into the room. How rude! Did he still have any respect for Song Chaoyang, the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee?
With a smile on his face, Song Chaoyang walked over to Sun Yaozu and welcomed him into the house. He said, "Comrade Mayor, your presence brings light to my humble dwelling. Haha, please come in and have a seat. "
Sun Yaozu shook hands with him, glanced at Xiao Dawei, and said with a smile, "oh, our secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection is also here, and there is also the manager of the Municipal Party Committee. You are really lively here, much more lively than my government."
Song Chaoyang invited Sun Yaozu to take a seat. Li Rui hurriedly poured tea for him. Sun Yaozu waved his hand and said, "Little Li, there is no need to pour tea. I will leave after sitting for a while. You can go back to work."
Li Rui knew that he was just being polite. If he really didn't make tea for him, he might be hated by him. Thus, he obediently poured tea for him and placed it on the coffee table in front of him before leaving. He thought to himself that there were already three secretaries in the room. This was clearly the rhythm of the secretaries' meeting. He didn't know if the Municipal Party Committee's full-time Deputy Secretary, Yu Heping, would come.
Returning to his seat, Li Rui began to reflect. He had just made a big mistake, which was sending private messages during work hours. Although it wasn't against the rules to do some private things at work, the nature of his work was special and his position was sensitive. He might not be able to do what others could do. For example, if Sun Yaozu saw him laughing at the text message, he might think that he wasn't serious about his work and that he was frivolous. If he mentioned it to Song Chaoyang again, then Song Chaoyang would also lose face in front of him. That would be even worse for him. He was now at the stage where he had to work hard to leave a good impression on the big shots of the Municipal Party Committee and the City Government. He couldn't afford to be careless. From now on, he had to be cautious and self-disciplined. He couldn't joke about his official life.
Not long after he sat down, Du Minsheng and Xiao Dawei came out together. He hurriedly got up and sent them out.
When they reached the corridor outside, Xiao Dawei left first.
Du Minsheng lowered his voice and asked Li Rui, "What happened?"
He asked without rhyme or reason, but Li Rui knew that he was asking about Mayor Sun Yaozu's sudden arrival. He hurriedly explained, "He suddenly came over and didn't stop walking towards Song Chaoyang's office. I didn't have time to stop him. Besides, I couldn't stop him." Du Minsheng said, "You're pretty smart. Otherwise …" Li Rui secretly felt lucky and didn't dare to say anything. Du Minsheng said, "Okay, I'm going back. You do your work."
Sun Yaozu stayed in Song Chaoyang's office for about 15 minutes before leaving. Song Chaoyang sent him out.
Li Rui saw this and hurriedly got up to send him out.
Sun Yaozu looked at Li Rui with a smile on his face, but didn't say anything. He said goodbye to Song Chaoyang and left.
Song Chaoyang called Li Rui back to his office and said, "You made us very passive just now." Li Rui heard his slightly reproachful tone and felt very awkward. He said embarrassedly, "I wasn't alert enough. The Mayor opened your door as soon as he appeared. I didn't even have time to react. I couldn't stop him … "Song Chaoyang sighed softly and said," Yes, he's the Mayor. It's not good for you to stop him. It's not good … "He walked back to his desk as he said this.
Li Rui looked at the water in his cup. It was still full, so he cleaned up all the remaining cups on the coffee table and wiped the coffee table again.
Song Chaoyang said, "Okay, Xiao Rui, you go back to work. I'm fine here for now."
Li Rui walked out with a little guilt. He sat down and thought carefully about how to take the initiative in the future when he encountered similar situations.
Before he got off work, Guan Weiwei sent another message to Li Rui asking if he had time tonight. Li Rui didn't know yet, so he couldn't reply to him. He ignored it.
After a while, Du Minsheng suddenly walked into the office and said to Li Rui, "You can get off work first. I have something to discuss with Song Shuji."
Li Rui was stunned. Although the Secretary-General was his immediate superior and had the authority to ask him to get off work, these words didn't come from Song Chaoyang's mouth. After hearing it, he felt a little awkward.
Du Minsheng didn't say anything. He turned around and walked to Song Chaoyang's office. He knocked on the door and walked in.
Li Ruixin thought that from the Secretary-General's words, he had already discussed with Song Shuji. Looking at the situation, they might even have dinner together tonight. If that was the case, then he should go back obediently. It just so happened that he had a dinner appointment with Guan Weiwei.
He packed up his things and sent a message to Guan Weiwei. He took his briefcase and went downstairs. But before he reached downstairs, Guan Weiwei's call came in.
"Hello, Brother Li. Why am I so lucky to have you free tonight? Haha. Just stay in the Municipal Party Committee compound. Don't go anywhere. I'll drive over to pick you up. " Guan Weiwei said warmly and familiarly. If someone who didn't know heard this, they would think that they were good friends.
Li Rui said, "I won't trouble you. Just tell me where the dinner place is. I'll take the bus there." Guan Weiwei shouted, "Damn, how can I do that? Brother Li, I'll treat you to dinner tonight. I'll take care of everything. If you rush over yourself, wouldn't that be a slap in my face? No, no, no. You can't do that even if you beat me to death. Just wait for me at the office. " Li Rui smiled. This person's words sounded quite righteous, but he didn't know whether he was giving face to Li Rui himself or his status as a secretary. He said, "Okay, then I'll accept your offer. But you don't have to come to the Municipal Party Committee to pick me up. Just come to the crossroad west of the Municipal Party Committee's entrance. "Guan Weiwei said okay and hung up quickly.
Guan Weiwei's movements were very fast. Li Rui walked from the Municipal Party Committee building to the crossroad west of the entrance of the compound. When he arrived, Guan Weiwei's police car had also arrived.
Li Rui noticed that Guan Weiwei was still driving the same Passat police car from last night. He was still driving the same police car after work. It was obvious that he was using the police car for private purposes. But in this day and age, which of the heads of the government departments didn't use their police cars for private purposes? No one was complained about or punished because of this. Everyone turned a blind eye to this and didn't take it seriously.
Guan Weiwei got out of the car and walked in front of Li Rui. He stretched out his hands and said warmly, "Brother Li, I'm late. I've made you wait for a long time. Haha." Li Rui knew that he was so affectionate because of his identity, but he still felt very happy. He shook hands with him and said with a smile, "Brother Wei, don't call me brother. I'm definitely younger than you. You can call me Xiao Rui or younger brother. I'm really sorry about what happened last night. I'm a hot-tempered person and didn't know how to control my strength … "
Li Rui took the initiative to apologize to Guan Weiwei. Naturally, he had his own considerations. Regardless of what Guan Weiwei was planning, he was a Deputy Director and a big shot in the City Traffic Police Detachment. Not only did he take the initiative to treat them, but he also personally came to pick them up. That was already the best way to save face. In life, what people want in life is face. If someone gave you face, you should also return the favor. This was the right way to make friends. Moreover, Brother Wei was the second person in the City Traffic Police Detachment. He was a great person with real power in the entire Qingyang City. In the past, he didn't have the opportunity to make friends with him. Now that the opportunity was here, why not seize it? Anyway, he didn't need to treat or give gifts. Since he took the initiative to come to his door, he would be a fool not to cherish it.
Guan Weiwei laughed and said, "Don't call me Brother Wei. I call myself that for others to hear. I'm so strong. Do I still need to eat Brother Wei? Haha. "Li Rui also laughed and said," Then I'll call you Brother Wei. "Guan Weiwei smiled bitterly and said," Well, it's even worse. You should call me Brother Wei. Good, brother, you're straightforward. I like it. Then let's not waste time here. Hurry up and get in the car. There's a group of friends waiting for us. "Li Rui was shocked and said," A group of … friends? Did you invite other people besides Dong Jieyu? " Guan Weiwei laughed and said, "You don't say. I invited Dong Jieyu, but she didn't give me face and didn't come at all. I can't help it. Oh right, brother, you have a lot of face. Why don't you call her and ask her to come over? " Li Rui thought of his plan. He couldn't do it in front of Dong Jieyu. He smiled and said, "She has a cold personality. I can't invite her." Guan Weiwei said, "Okay, then let's get in the car and go."
