Li Rui said, "Five hundred RMB. Buy some food and drinks before you go. Buy some souvenirs when you get there. Give everyone a share. We can't just go on a trip for nothing, right? As for the money in the treasury, how did you get it in the past? " Yuan Xiaodi said, "Some from the budget, and some from outside." Li Rui laughed, "I'm not unfamiliar with the term 'begging for alms'. When I was in the Water Conservancy Bureau, the leaders also went out to beg for alms before the holidays. But it was easy for them to ask for money directly from the Water Conservancy Bureau. For example, the water company under the Water Conservancy Bureau dared not to pay. But we don't have any subordinates in the First Secretary Department, right? It shouldn't be easy to ask for money, right? "
Yuan Xiaodi nodded, "Uh … it's easy to ask for money, but it's also not easy to ask for money. It depends on the leader. If the leader is popular in the city, then all the state-owned enterprises and private enterprises will rush to send money to him. But if he's not popular, then no one will care. "Li Rui asked," If this kind of money is in our hands, will it all belong to the First Secretary Department? Won't the General Office be jealous? "Yuan Xiaodi said," Of course, we have to show some appreciation. But you get along so well with the Secretary-General, no one will be jealous. "Li Rui thought for a while and said," I'll take note of this. Let me take a look at it first. We'll follow the original plan. If I can get some alms in the near future, we'll raise the budget by a notch. "
Yuan Xiaodi grinned, "Zhang Hui and the others will be happy to hear this." Li Rui said, "Our First Secretary Department directly serves the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. We've always done the most arduous and meticulous work. We don't usually have time to rest. Now that we have time to relax, we'll try to compensate everyone. You see, other than Zhang Hui, everyone in our department is prematurely old. If their hair isn't white, then their faces are sallow. How can they do their work well when their bodies are so tired? We should compensate them when it's necessary. What do you think, Master? "Yuan Xiaodi nodded," Yes, you're more courageous than me. Back when I was in charge of the First Bureau, when it came to such activities, the standard of expenditure was generally the same as before. That was because I was afraid of being criticized. Now that he thought about it, why did he have to look at other people's faces? Even if he did, what good would it do? What's the harm in not looking? Xiao Rui, you're so open-minded and open-minded. I'm too petty. "
After dinner, Li Rui came back with Song Chaoyang to work overtime. He had just sat down when he received a call from his godson, Li Ming.
Li Ming called to update him on the latest situation regarding the matter he had entrusted to him. "I spoke to the district's urban management director face to face this afternoon. At that time, he agreed quite readily. He said that he would immediately go back to work as the injured urban management director and try his best to minimize this matter. I asked him to give me an answer as soon as possible, and he agreed. It should be in the next one or two days. Brother, you and your sister can rest assured. " Li Rui said, "Speaking of this matter, the urban management director also has a lot of responsibility. If they didn't enforce the law so roughly, how could this have happened? In this world, the common people can't wait to hide from the urban management director. If they weren't forced into a corner, who would take the initiative to provoke and stab people? "
Li Ming said, "Yes, that's what I meant. The urban management director also did some self-criticism. He probably won't do this again in the future." After he finished talking about business, he changed the topic and said with a smile, "Your sister is really pretty. You're very lucky." Li Rui laughed, "Come on, I'm just friends with her. It's not like what you think." Li Rui said ambiguously, "We're not outsiders, right? Tell me the truth, do you and her … Hehe, you know." Li Rui said, "No, there's not even the slightest bit of ambiguous relationship." Li Ming said, "That girl is beautiful and has a good figure. Other than her small breasts, everything else can be said to be perfect. Little brother, you can consider it."
Li Rui saw that the topic was constantly on Fang Zhitong and was really afraid that he would take a fancy to her. He was also worried that after he found out that he had no feelings for her, he would chase after her. He smiled and said, "Yes, I'll consider it. Oh right, have you and sister-in-law made up? " Li Ming said, "We've made up, we've made up. If it wasn't for little brother, she wouldn't have agreed to make up with me. She asked me to take some time to treat you to a meal to thank you. We're family so don't be so formal. Tell me, when are you free? " Li Rui thought to himself that since Lin Yali was the one who suggested this meal, she must have her own intentions. Maybe she wanted to take advantage of this meal to get intimate with him. Thinking of her enchanting face and devilish figure, he was a little tempted, but he could only helplessly say, "I'm very busy this week. Let's do it next week."
Li Ming said, "Okay … Oh right, I heard from your sister-in-law that she wanted to introduce Yafei to you. Why did you reject her? With Yafei's looks, no one would object to her being called the number one beauty in Qingyang. Why don't you like her? " Li Rui hurriedly explained, "It's not that I don't like her. It's just that I already have someone, so I can only disappoint sister-in-law's good intentions." Li Ming sighed and said, "Aiya, what a pity. If you marry Yafei, then we'll have to carry the burden. Wouldn't that be more intimate?" Li Rui nodded. Li Ming saw that he didn't like to talk much and said, "Okay, if there's nothing else, then I'll hang up. Go do your work."
That night, Song Chaoyang dragged his tired body out of the office and called Li Rui to get off work. By the time Li Rui dropped him off at the Qingyang Hotel, it was already half past nine. Thinking of his appointment with Lin Yafei, he hurriedly took a taxi to the TV station. At the same time, he called her to ask about her.
After the call connected, he said apologetically, "Yafei, my boss got off work late tonight, so I'm late too. You must have been waiting for a long time, right?" Lin Yafei smiled and said, "No, I'm busy too. Maybe I'll still be busy when you arrive." Li Ruiqi asked, "You're still busy?" Lin Yafei said, "Yes, I'm thinking about how to be a good host, hehe." Li Rui said, "I'll be right there. Wait a while." Lin Yafei said considerately, "You don't have to rush, I'm not in a hurry anyway."
Fifteen minutes later, Li Rui was already standing at the entrance of the TV station. Standing here, he suddenly thought of the TV station's advertising director, Liu Annie. After experiencing last night's nightmare, how would she face her work and life in the future? He hoped that she would be more open-minded and not be engulfed by pain and hatred.
He walked towards the door. The old man guarding the door saw that he was unfamiliar, so he walked over to stop him. He looked at him up and down and asked, "Young man, stop, stop. What are you doing? Who are you looking for at the TV station so late at night? "Li Rui smiled and said," I'm looking for your TV station's Lin Yafei. "The old man asked cautiously," Why are you looking for her? Did you make an appointment with her? Hasn't she gotten off work yet? "Li Rui said," Yes, I'm here to pick her up. "The old man said," Wait, I'll give her a call. You can only go in after confirming. "
Li Rui smiled and nodded.
The old man went back to the gatehouse and found Lin Yafei's office number. He dialed her number and waited for the call to connect before shouting at Li Rui through the window, "Young man, what's your name?" Li Rui said, "Li Rui." The old man waited for the call to connect and confirmed with Lin Yafei before shouting, "Go in, she's waiting in the office."
Li Rui walked into the courtyard and walked a few meters into the building. He took the elevator to the eighth floor and found the room number that Lin Yafei had told him about. When he reached the door, he found that it wasn't closed. He looked inside and saw Lin Yafei sitting at her desk facing the door. She was writing something with her head down. Beside her stood a man in his thirties. He had a strange smile on his face and was talking to her non-stop. Lin Yafei ignored him and continued to write with her head down.
Li Rui didn't know who the man was, but a natural sense of danger warned him that this guy might have designs on Lin Yafei. Therefore, his first impression of him was very bad. He raised his arm and knocked lightly on the door. He called out softly, "Yafei?"
Lin Yafei looked up and saw that it was him. She was happy and stood up. "You're finally here. Okay, we can go now." After she finished speaking, she packed her pen and purse and didn't pay any attention to the man beside her.
The man didn't care. He glanced at Li Rui at the door and his expression changed slightly. He asked Lin Yafei, "Your boyfriend?" Lin Yafei glanced at him with a faint smile and said lightly, "That's right. He's here to pick me up from work." The man looked back at Li Rui and the corner of his mouth twitched. He said casually, "What's your surname?"
Li Rui wanted to know the real reason why he asked about his surname, so he said honestly, "My surname is Li." The man said, "Oh, Xiao Li, let me introduce myself. My surname is also Li. I'm the deputy director of our city's television station. I'm in charge of the news department and broadcasting department. Xiao Lin happens to be under my charge." Li Rui's heart skipped a beat. He didn't expect this guy to be the deputy director of the city's television station at such a young age. Seeing that he was only a few years older than him, his appearance was a little wretched, and his figure was a little out of shape. It wasn't an exaggeration to describe him as a "wretched man". He sighed inwardly and said, "Oh, it's Director Li. Hello."
