After successfully making an appointment with Jia Yuanyuan, Li Rui was in a very good mood. He opened his email and found that the photo sent by Guo Xiaohe had arrived. He opened it and took a look. Good heavens, the photo's resolution was really high. The computer screen couldn't even take a full picture of the photo. After taking a closer look, he found that there were indeed two beauties in the photo. One was tall and beautiful; the other was petite and delicate. They were indeed two rare beauties. However, he didn't believe that these two women would be persuaded by Guo Xiaohe to spend the night with him. However, even if Guo Xiaohe could really persuade them, he didn't need them to accompany him tonight.
At 6: 30 in the evening, in a luxurious private room in the VIP lounge of Shengjing Hotel, Li Rui met Vice Governor Fan Jianlin and his secretary. Unexpectedly, in the same private room, he also saw Li Jing, the female deputy mayor of the municipal government, whom he had helped last night. Her secretary Jin Rui was also there.
He was very surprised at first. It was his boss who invited Vice Governor Fan. Why did Li Jing, the Vice Mayor, suddenly come? Later, he understood that Fan Jianlin was the Vice Governor in charge of education. This time, he came to Qingyang to investigate the education work. Li Jing was also the Vice Mayor in charge of education. Therefore, it was not a problem for her to attend this kind of official banquet. This was called reception.
When the two suddenly saw each other, they were a little surprised, but they didn't show any abnormality. Li Rui looked away when he saw her. When she saw Li Rui, she also lowered her eyes expressionlessly.
Later, Li Rui found that she maintained an expressionless face throughout the banquet. From the beginning to the end of the banquet, her expression didn't change.
After Song Chaoyang and Fan Jianlin shook hands and greeted each other, the three leaders sat down. Fan Jianlin was a Vice Governor and a guest. Naturally, he sat at the head of the table. Song Chaoyang accompanied him on his left, and Li Jing on his right. Jin Rui sat next to her boss, while Fan Jianlin's secretary sat next to Song Chaoyang. Poor Li Rui was the one with the least status, so she sat with her back to the door.
In theory, among the three secretaries in the private room, Jin Rui had the lowest status. However, this meal was on Song Chaoyang. As his secretary, Li Rui was naturally the host and had to sit at the end of the table to accompany him. Besides, Jin Rui was a girl, so he had to take care of her.
Throughout the entire banquet, Li Rui basically took over the work of serving the dishes, wine, and various services, including dealing with the waiters. He had to sit and sit up countless times, and it could be said that it was extremely tiring.
Li Rui and his little disciple, Jin Rui, had not seen each other for a long time. They were both very happy to see each other and had a lot to say. However, due to the presence of the three leaders, they did not dare to say much. They just greeted each other politely.
After the banquet started, Song Chaoyang, as the host, was the first to propose a toast to Fan Jianlin and drank half a glass. Fan Jianlin laughed and drank a big mouthful. This was considered giving him a lot of face.
Li Rui asked Fan Jianlin if he wanted to refill the wine.
In a banquet, there were two opportunities to refill the wine. One was to refill the wine after the glass was empty. This type of person was easier to serve. There was no need to watch how much wine the other person drank. They just had to wait until the other person was empty before refilling the wine. Moreover, there was usually a clear signal when the other person finished the wine. Usually, the two of them would say something, and one of them would say, "Cheers?" The other person would nod and say, "Okay, cheers." Then, the people around them would not say anything and just watch them drink. For those who wanted to go up and refill the wine, they could grasp the opportunity to refill the wine with a little bit of foresight.
The other type of person was to refill the wine with a little bit of wine. This method of refilling the wine was very difficult to grasp. The person who wanted to refill the wine had to watch the other person's glass. When he saw that the other person was almost done, he had to immediately stand up and propose a toast. Moreover, the most terrible thing was that the other person might finish the wine before you could even warm your seat. Then, you would have to go up and propose another toast.
As the person in charge of refilling the wine in a banquet, it was impossible not to be clear about the timing of refilling the wine. If you were not clear about this, it was very likely that you would be misunderstood as ignorant and impolite. In a banquet among the people, it was not a big deal to be misunderstood. At worst, you would just offend one or two friends. However, in a banquet among the officials, being misunderstood could lead to a life-threatening situation.
Perhaps some big leader had a bad temper and saw that you were not refilling the wine when you were supposed to. He would think that you did not put him in your eyes and would be jealous of you. When you returned, he would either deal with you personally or give you a hint to your direct leader. Then, you could just wait for your bad luck.
As the saying goes, "There is no small matter in the official world." Don't just remember this when you are working in the unit. Even after work, you must always remember this point when it involves the people or matters in the official world. It was okay if you did not remember it. Someone would teach you to remember it.
Li Rui asked. He first stood up, then picked up the wine bottle and pretended to be ready to leave. In the end, he smiled and asked, "Governor Fan, should I refill your glass now or wait until you are done?"
Fan Jianlin pressed his left hand in the air, indicating that he should go back to his seat. He smiled amiably and said, "Don't be anxious. Drink slowly. Wait until you are done."
Li Rui knew how to grasp the situation. He had done the proper etiquette. He smiled at Fan Jianlin, put down the wine bottle, and sat back down.
After Song Chaoyang finished his toast, it was Li Jing's turn to toast. Speaking of which, Li Jing could be considered one of the hosts.
Li Jing waited for Fan Jianlin to eat a few mouthfuls of food before she picked up the teacup, stood up, and said, "Governor Fan, let me toast you." There was no smile on her face, and her tone was cold. It did not seem like she was toasting at all.
Fan Jianlin picked up the wine glass, glanced at her, and smiled. "Little Li, we are old friends. Every time I come back to Qingyang, you are the one who entertains me. I know your alcohol tolerance. It is better than mine. Why are you toasting me with tea today? I am picky. " Li Jing looked at him calmly and said in a neither servile nor overbearing tone, "Didn't I drink with you last night? The wine you brought from the province is very strong. After I drank it, I felt uncomfortable last night and the whole day. Therefore, I can only replace wine with tea today. "
When Li Rui heard this, his heart inexplicably jumped a few times. He thought of Li Jing's embarrassing appearance last night and how she came out of the Shengjing Hotel. Looking at her cold attitude towards Fan Jianlin now, he could not help but think that the wine she drank last night had been drugged with aphrodisiac. And the guy who drugged her was Fan Jianlin in front of him? Looking carefully, he saw that the tall, thin, and dignified deputy governor in his fifties or sixties looked a little embarrassed. It seemed that Li Jing's words had hit the nail on the head. He was surprised. Was it really him who drugged her? He did not look like a despicable and shameless person.
Fan Jianlin smiled and said, "Oh, right? The wine I brought from the province is specially provided. It is reasonable that it is strong. If you can't drink, don't drink too much. I also advised you at that time. Haha, well, since you are not feeling well, let's replace wine with tea. Come, let me drink with you. "After saying that, he carried the remaining wine over.
The two of them clinked glasses. Li Jing took a sip of tea, put down the teacup, sat back, and began to eat with a calm expression. Fan Jianlin finished the wine in one gulp. His actions were very big, and he had the air of a leader. It seemed that he valued Li Jing very much.
Li Rui hurriedly got up and refilled his wine. He also refilled the wine for the boss, Song Chaoyang. Then, he replaced the wine bottle with a teapot and refilled Li Jing's tea.
Li Jing did not even look at him. She just ate and drank silently.
Li Rui looked at her beautiful face, which was like a full moon. He remembered that he had hugged her many times last night and was kissed by her. He could not help but feel a little thirsty. He sat back in his seat and raised his wine cup to toast Fan Jianlin's secretary.
During the banquet, Li Rui and Jin Rui also toasted each other twice. Occasionally, they would say a few words. They were neither cold nor affectionate. It was just right.
Later, Jin Rui crossed her legs and coincidentally kicked him. Li Rui tilted his head to look at her. He saw that she had a coquettish expression on her face. She was beautiful and charming. He could not help but feel a rush of excitement. When no one was paying attention, he said in a low voice, "You kicked me twice. I still remember it." Jin Rui said coquettishly, "I was wrong, okay? I'll wash your pants for you." Li Rui said, "I'll let you kick me for free. I'll kick you too. "Jin Rui held back her laughter. She bitterly ate a mouthful of food and whispered," Can you bear to kick me? "Li Rui said," Why can't I bear to? "Jin Rui looked at him, indicating that she was his disciple.
She had drunk wine and her face was rosy. This angry little girl's appearance was especially seductive. It was indescribable.
Li Rui glanced at her, and a beautiful thought rose in his heart. He couldn't wait to hug her and kiss her coquettish face enough. Unfortunately, this was not the occasion, and she might not agree, so he could only silently turn his head.
After the banquet ended, the three leaders shook hands outside the private room and said goodbye. Li Rui took advantage of this time to stare at Jin Rui. This girl was tall and slender. She was about 1.75 meters tall even in low-heeled leather shoes. She wore an OL dark blue suit that accentuated her slender figure. She had thin shoulders, a slim waist, a full butt, and long legs. Coupled with the flesh-colored stockings that exposed her feet, there wasn't a part of her that wasn't seductive.
Jin Rui noticed his fiery gaze and felt sweet in her heart. She held back her laughter and deliberately ignored him.
Li Rui saw that she was holding back her laughter and became more and more charming. His heart was itching. If he had not promised to accompany his boss to the event tonight, he really wanted to stop her and hang out with her for a while after work.
Fan Jianlin was staying in the hotel. After saying goodbye, he took the elevator up with his secretary. Song Chaoyang and Li Jing took the elevator down. Li Rui and Jin Rui naturally followed behind the two bosses.
