In fact, other than Han Ming, who was not interested in Li Rui, everyone else at the table treated Li Rui as a big shot and wanted to be friends with him. Nonsense, if the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee's secretary was not a big shot, who else could be considered a big shot? Han Ming? He was just a deputy in the publicity department. What power did he have? What could he do? The young man in front of them had more connections and was more capable. As a result, people competed to propose a toast to him as if they were competing. Many people proposed a second or third toast after the first toast. The head of the Family Planning Committee even wanted to toast Li Rui three times to show her affection.
Han Ming, who was sitting at the head of the table, could not help but be jealous when he saw this scene.
The banquet lasted for nearly two hours. Everyone drank too much. Their faces and necks were red and they were drunk.
After the banquet, Zhang Yu put his arm around Li Rui's shoulder and whispered, "Brother, let's go and play for a while. Don't be in a hurry to go home tonight. It's okay if you have to go back. I'll get Wang Tao to send you back. " Li Rui was still waiting for Yuan Jingjing's call, so he was not in a hurry to go home. He smiled and said, "I'll listen to your arrangements."
Everyone came out of the restaurant, got in the car, and went to the hotel inside. Wang Tao had already arranged everything in the hotel. He led everyone upstairs and into a luxurious suite.
The suite was divided into an inner and outer room. There were mahjong tables in the inner and outer room. The green tablecloth was very comfortable to look at.
Zhang Yu led Han Ming, Li Rui, and the police chief into the inner room. Wang Tao followed and poured tea. After pouring tea, he walked out of the room and closed the door.
Zhang Yu asked the three to sit down and said, "I often hear people ask, what is the most important thing in a person's life? Some people say it's ability, some say it's luck, and some say it's wisdom. But I think the most important thing is friends. Anyway, if you let me choose, I can live without anything but friends. Today, whether we are new friends or old friends, we are all sitting together. From now on, we will be good friends. Hehe, I won't say any more nonsense. Today, we brothers are sitting together. That's fate. We'll just play a few rounds to test our luck and relax. Especially Brother Li, you accompany the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee every day. It's a rare chance for you to relax, so just enjoy yourself today. "
When Han Ming saw that Zhang Yu always followed Li Rui around, he was very unhappy. He laughed and said, "Xiao Rui, you keep Song Shuji company every day. You can at least become a Deputy Director in the future, right?"
When Li Rui heard Zhang Yu's words, whether it was his tone or the word "bastard", it was very harsh to the ears. He was secretly annoyed, but he could understand the deeper meaning behind his words. He was hinting to Zhang Yu that even if he was favored by the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, he would only be a Deputy Director in the future. There was no need to pay so much attention to him.
In fact, Han Ming's words were very easy to put in a good way. As long as he removed the words "can at least become a Deputy Director in the future" and changed it to "You can at least become a Deputy Director in the future", it would no longer be contemptuous. Instead, it would have some expectations and congratulations. The listener would be happy, and he would also have a good relationship with them. Why not? But he used such a contemptuous tone to say it. Not to mention Li Rui, even Zhang Yu felt that it was a little too much.
Zhang Yu laughed and tried to smooth things over. "Xiao Rui is smart and treats people with affection. His future is limitless. He will definitely be better than you and me. Come, hehe, let's play a few rounds. "The Public Security Bureau Chief deliberately misinterpreted his words." Ah? How many rounds? Who are you rubbing? Who are you rubbing? Haha! "
When Han Ming heard Zhang Yu's words to help Li Rui out of trouble, he felt a little indignant and wanted to say a few more words. However, when he heard the police chief's crude words, he couldn't help but laugh out loud and said, "Old Zheng, can you think of anything other than bullshit?" The police chief laughed and said, "Of course. Then let's talk about bullshit, haha."
Haha. "Although the Public Security Bureau Chief was extremely vulgar, his words were just right to cover up the unhappiness between Han Ming and Li Rui. Zhang Yu also laughed when he heard this. He pointed at the Public Security Bureau Chief and said, "You, you are lucky that there is no woman in the room. Otherwise, someone would be scolding you."
They chatted for a while and started rubbing their eight hands on the table.
Zhang Yu reminded Li Rui, "Xiao Rui, the money is in the tablecloth pocket. Let's play a pot of mahjong. There will be other programs later."
Li Rui said, "Oh." After he was done with the mahjong tiles, he peeked into the tablecloth pocket and saw a small pile of money. It wasn't a lot, probably only a few thousand yuan. He thought that Zhang Yu had come prepared. Maybe he was just giving him money. It shouldn't be a problem to accept this kind of money since it wasn't much anyway.
He guessed correctly. After they started playing, Zhang Yu and the Public Security Bureau Chief kept asking him to draw. In the end, he was embarrassed to draw. Zhang Yu grasped the timing very well. After he was done, he changed the style of playing mahjong and began to feed Han Ming. Han Ming quickly drew. He knew that the money would belong to him if he won, so he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.
After nine o 'clock, Li Rui received a call from Yuan Jingjing. It wasn't convenient to answer in front of these people, so he took his phone out of the room and went to the corridor outside to answer the call.
Yuan Jingjing said, "Come to my house." Li Rui said, "Eh, didn't you say that Feng Bing was at home during the day?" Yuan Jingjing said, "He left again. He went to the provincial capital overnight." Li Rui said, "I'm playing mahjong with someone now. I can't come over for the time being." Yuan Jingjing said, "No, I'm too lazy to wash." Li Rui said, "Wash well, especially that part." Yuan Jingjing sneered and said, "You want to serve me again?" Li Rui said, "Isn't it natural to serve your old boss?" Li Rui said, "Isn't it natural to serve your old boss?"
The two chatted for a while and then hung up.
Li Rui put his phone in his trouser pocket and calmed himself down before walking back into the house.
Zhang Yu waited for him to sit down and asked with a smile, "What's wrong? Sister-in-law is rushing you?" Li Rui of course didn't dare to promise casually. He smiled and said, "No, a friend is looking for me." Zhang Yu asked, "Is it urgent?" Li Rui saw that the three of them were looking at him eagerly and felt embarrassed to leave immediately. He smiled and said, "No rush, no rush. Let's play for a while more."
Han Ming was relieved and said, "Hurry up, hurry up. We've been waiting for you for a long time. Play your mahjong."
After playing eight rounds, Zhang Yu and Chief Zheng didn't have much money left. Most of it was in the hands of Han Ming and Li Rui.
Zhang Yu estimated that the two of them could get six to seven thousand each. Although it wasn't much, it was enough. After all, making friends wasn't a matter of eating one or two meals. It required a long-term relationship, so they just had to invest slowly. Of course, for people of their status and status, it didn't matter how much money they had. If you gave them a million or so, they might think it was too little. If their relationship was good enough, they might even be very happy if you gave them a few thousand.
After Li Rui finished another round, Zhang Yu smiled and neatly pushed the mahjong tiles aside and said, "Let's stop playing mahjong here. Let's go and relax."
Li Rui stood up and said, "Secretary Zhang, Minister Han, Chief Zheng, I still have something to do, so I'll be leaving first. Let's meet again another day. I'll treat you another day … "Chief Zheng didn't wait for him to finish and put an arm around his shoulder and said," Brother, you don't have anything urgent to do, right? Don't be in a hurry to leave. Let's go to a good place to relax. "He winked and said," I promise you'll have fun! "
Zhang Yu said, "Xiao Rui, you're going back to the city, aren't you? The place we're going to is in the city. Just think of it as going home. Okay? "
Han Ming had just finished counting the money he won and stood up with satisfaction. In front of them, he folded the money and put it in his pocket. He said to Li Rui, "Since you're here, don't be in a hurry to leave. It's so disappointing, right? If you're like this, who's going to play with you in the future? "
When Li Rui saw that the three of them had already said this, he couldn't refuse. He smiled and said, "Then I'll listen to Secretary Zhang's arrangements. I'll go home after playing for a while." Zhang Yu smiled and said, "That's right. Come on, put the money away. We'll leave now. "
In fact, he and Chief Zheng had already lost all their money. How could they have any money left to put away? These words were a reminder to Han Ming and Li Rui. Han Ming had already put away the money, so in reality, only Li Rui was left.
Li Rui put away the money with a little shame. He didn't count it and just held it in his hand. He said, "Secretary Zhang, let me show my appreciation later. I won quite a lot too. The event expenses later will be on me." Zhang Yu waved his hand and said, "How can that be? Put everything on me today. You can treat me another day. Hehe, put the money away and leave. "
Li Rui could only stuff the money into the outer layer of his briefcase and walk out with the three of them.
The people outside were having fun. Zhang Yu ignored them and only brought Chief Zheng with him. He accompanied Han Ming and Li Rui downstairs. It was obvious that Chief Zheng was his confidant.
Outside the building, everyone got into their respective cars. Li Rui didn't have a car, so he sat with Zhang Yu. A total of three cars drove towards the city.
