Li Rui said, "Very good, but I have a question." Lin Yali said, "Say it." Li Rui said, "I haven't showered in a long time. I want to take a shower first, but I'm afraid I'll delay eating with you …" Lin Yali said, "What's this? Come and eat first. I'll shower with you after eating, hehe. " Li Rui said, "But I'm very dirty now. I might even smell rotten. Aren't you going to laugh at me?" Lin Yali said, "What do you mean? Do you think I'll despise you? Am I that kind of person? I was even willing to give you my body. You're the one who didn't want it. Do you think I'll despise you for being dirty? "
Li Rui smiled with satisfaction and said, "What about Ya Fei? Will she laugh at me?" Lin Yali said, "As long as your image isn't too bad, she shouldn't be able to tell. Besides, you helped her so much. Without you, she wouldn't have her current glamorous job. She can't even thank you enough. Why would she laugh at you? Aiya, you're becoming more and more distant. I really don't know what to do with you. If you hate us, you should've said so earlier. Don't use this and that to fool us. " Li Rui laughed and said, "I'll rush over immediately. See how I'll shut your chattering mouth later." Lin Yali said, "En, I'm on my way to pick up Fei Fei. I'll be there in about half an hour. You'll have to wait for a while."
After hanging up, he flagged down a taxi and headed towards Zuixian restaurant.
At the entrance of Zuixian restaurant, Li Rui actually saw his old classmate Li Zhichao who wouldn't let go of Ding Yijing. He should've just gotten off work. He was still wearing his uniform and had a few colleagues beside him. There was also a man who looked like a boss with a smile on his face as he led them in. He probably wanted to treat them to a meal.
Li Zhichao also saw him at the same time and walked over to greet him.
The two shook hands hypocritically and exchanged pleasantries. Li Zhichao suddenly whispered, "If you're an old classmate, do me a favor." Li Rui said, "Oh? What kind of help? Tell me about it. "Li Zhichao asked," How is your relationship with Director Gao of the City's Industry and Commerce Bureau? "Li Rui said," The Director Gao you met last time when you treated me to a meal? " Li Rui shook his head. "We're just acquaintances. We don't have much of a relationship." Li Zhichao said, "It's fine even if you don't have a friendship. With your status, you can settle this with just a word."
Li Rui had already guessed that Huo Shaoheng probably wanted him to help him transfer to another job. Otherwise, he wouldn't have mentioned Bureau Chief Gao. He asked, "Oh, settle what?" Li Zhichao said: "A Deputy Chief of our Northern District Industry and Commerce Bureau has just retired. Now there is a Deputy Chief's position, and I want to take it. Old classmate, you have to help me. You're a big shot now. Among our classmates, you're doing the best. If you don't help me, who will? You can't just focus on climbing up the ladder on your own. You have to help your old classmates as well. Since we've all climbed up the ladder, we can help you in the future. Don't you think so too? "
Li Rui nodded repeatedly. What he said was indeed the truth. No matter how high he climbed, it was impossible for him to not have anyone to help him. It was just like leading an army to war. No matter how much the higher-ups favored him and allowed him to become the Grand Marshal, he could lead a million men into battle. However, there was no one in the million men who belonged to him. If there was no one to help him plan and plan, and no one to help him deal with the chores, then his position as the Grand Marshal would only be an empty shell, let alone winning the war. If he couldn't win the war, would the higher-ups continue to favor him?
But then again, even if he wanted to cultivate a trusted aide, he couldn't cultivate someone like the one in front of him. His character was too low. He was the type of person who said, "If you're good, I'll come and hug your leg. If you're bad, I'll turn around and leave." Didn't he see how Huo Shaoheng never contacted him when he was struggling in the City's Water Conservancy Bureau? This kind of person definitely couldn't be trusted. Otherwise, it would only ruin his plans. What's more, even if he didn't have a despicable character, he wouldn't help him just because he kept pestering Ding Yijing.
He made up his mind, but he didn't directly reject him. Rejecting people was also an art. A hundred different kinds of rice raised a hundred different kinds of people. Everyone had different personalities and thoughts, so when dealing with them, they had to be treated differently. For example, he couldn't directly reject this pure villain in front of him. That would make him feel embarrassed. Maybe he would turn around and stab you in the back in anger. There was a wise saying that said, "Don't have the heart to hurt others, but don't let your guard down."
He pretended to be very concerned about this matter and asked, "Oh, what do you need me to do?" Li Zhichao said, "It's very simple. You just have to say hello to Director Gao. Of course, if you can invite him out for a meal, that would be the best. Actually, appointing a deputy director of a district branch isn't a big deal for him. Which district branch doesn't have four or five deputy directors? So you don't have to worry about owing him too much. " Li Rui said, "Okay, I'll try, but I can't guarantee success. After all, I don't have any friendship with him." Li Zhichao nodded quickly and said, "Well, I'm very grateful that you agreed to help. I'm also looking for someone to help me. It's more appropriate with your help. Haha, I'll treat you to a meal some other day. I'll leave first. "
Li Rui watched him walk into the door. He felt a little depressed. No matter how bad this person was, he was still his old classmate. If he didn't help at all, it would be too much. As for his pursuit of Ding Yijing, it couldn't be helped. Which man didn't like beautiful women? If he didn't help him out of jealousy, wouldn't that be petty? If Ding Yijing knew about this, how would she look at him? Well, I'll see. If there's a chance, I'll help him. It's more or less a good thing.
He walked into the hotel and found a private room to wait for the Lin sisters. Suddenly, he thought of something. He took out his phone and called Zhuang Haixia in Beijing.
Zhuang Haixia and Lui Hai's laptop and interview equipment were still with him. Last time when he told Zhuang Haixia about it, she wanted to come to get it immediately. However, he happened to meet Lu Qingman so he didn't let her come. Later, he had to go to the countryside to help the poor. Naturally, he couldn't entertain her. Now that he was finally free, he could ask her to come over.
Zhuang Haixia said, "Hey, you're not dead." Li Rui didn't know whether to cry or laugh, "Who told you I'm dead? Are you cursing me to die? "Zhuang Haixia snorted," You're not dead and you're pretending to be dead? You didn't even call to say hello for half a month! " Li Rui laughed, "Do you think you're my Empress Dowager? Why would I want to say hello to you? You haven't even said hello to me." Zhuang Haixia said, "I'm busy, so busy." Li Rui said, "I wanted to tell you that you should come over when you have time. I'm completely free." Zhuang Haixia said, "Wait for me. I'm really busy recently. I'll tell you in advance when I'm coming over."
Li Rui laughed and asked, "Busy with work or busy with love?" Zhuang Haixia said, "What's there to be busy with love? Of course I'm busy with work." Li Rui said, "Work is never done. You have to take care of your body." Zhuang Haixia said, "That's more like it." Li Rui snorted, "How can you say that?" Zhuang Haixia laughed and said, "I'm praising you for being a human. Alright, let's not talk anymore. I still have to work overtime. I'll talk to you when I'm free."
Li Rui hung up the phone resentfully. He thought to himself, I'll be busy when you're not busy. Sigh, why do people always have to be busy?
After waiting for a while, the Lin sisters still hadn't arrived. Li Rui was bored and called Lu Qingman.
Lu Qingman had just returned home from work and was busy preparing dinner. She had never received a call from him at this time. She was a little surprised and laughed, "Why are you early today?" Li Rui said, "I'm having dinner with a friend. My friend hasn't arrived yet, so I wanted to talk to you. Your husband is finally back from the poor village. This weekend, whether I have time or not, I'm going to visit you in the provincial capital. "
The two of them had sex a few weeks ago at the Dream Paradise Hotel and became a real husband and wife. Their feelings for each other had deepened. Therefore, Li Ruixin missed her very much after not seeing her for a few weeks. Even though he called her almost every day, he couldn't resist the pain of missing her and wanted to go to the provincial capital to accompany her this weekend.
Lu Qingman said softly, "It's good that you can come over, but don't make things difficult for Song Shuji. If you can't come over, I'll just go and accompany you. " Li Rui said, "I definitely won't make things difficult for him. This time, when I came back from poverty relief, he took the initiative to give me a few days off. I didn't accept it, so it won't be a problem to take a day or two off on the weekend." Lu Qingman said, "Okay, what do you want to eat? I'll buy it in advance." Li Rui laughed and said, "I just want to eat you." Lu Qingman said, "You're not serious." Lu Qingman asked curiously, "What is it?" Li Rui said, "You'll know when I get there." Lu Qingman said angrily, "You're so annoying. You're deliberately keeping me in suspense, aren't you …"
As the two of them were talking, the door to the private room opened and the two beautiful sisters of the Lin family walked in gracefully. The two women were not the boorish type, so they were quiet when they walked into the private room.
Li Rui saw the two of them come in and said to Lu Qingman, "Okay, our friends are here. Let's not talk about it anymore. You can start cooking." Lu Qingman nodded and hung up the phone.
Li Rui put his phone on the table and glanced at the two sisters. His eyes lit up. In the past few weeks of living in the countryside, he didn't have any stunning beauties by his side. Although Li Feiyan, Ling Shuyao, and Fang Zhitong, who he had just met, were also beauties, they were the elegant and charming type. They were still a bit off from the standard of "great beauties." Now that he saw the Lin sisters, he finally experienced the feeling of "stunning beauty" and "peerless beauty."
