Later, when all the main dishes were served, Zhang Mingfang, the host, called the two of them to start eating. The three of them first drank a cup together, then started eating and drinking separately. During the process of eating and drinking, they chatted and laughed, occasionally toasting each other a few cups.
Halfway through the banquet, Shen Yuanzhu got up and left to use the restroom. There was a pocket-sized restroom in the private room, but for some reason, she insisted on going outside.
Li Rui thought that she was afraid that he would hear her shushing.
As soon as Shen Yuanzhu left, Zhang Mingfang moved a chair to Li Rui's side, put a hand on his arm, and asked with a serious face, "Xiao Rui, what did Song Shuji mean by that? He wanted you to hear what I said to you. What can I say to you? " Li Rui smiled at her, and thought about how to use better words to get the boss to know the situation. After thinking about it, he smiled and said, "What he said didn't have any deep meaning. It was just a simple sentence, meaning that since you invited me to dinner, you have to say something, so let me hear what you have to say." Zhang Mingfang wasn't satisfied with his explanation, but she didn't have a better explanation. She could only nod in confusion and said, "Oh, I see."
Li Rui smiled and said, "But sister, I'm a little curious." Zhang Mingfang asked, "What are you curious about?" Li Rui shook his head and said, "Forget it, I won't ask. I don't want to make things difficult for you. Come on, let's drink. "Zhang Mingfang patted his arm heavily and said with a smile," Why are you doing this with me? Just ask me what you want to ask. I won't hide it from you. " Li Rui went with the flow and asked, "Sister, don't be unhappy if I tell you. I'm really curious. You became a divisional leader at such a young age, and you're one of the top divisional leaders in the city. I admire you very much. I don't know how you got up step by step. If you're willing to tell me, give me some pointers. I'll learn from you and climb up the ranks. "
Zhang Mingfang smiled bitterly and said, "I'm still considered young? I'll be forty after the New Year. Do you still think it's a big deal to be able to climb to the level of a division head at the age of forty? " Li Rui smiled and said, "You have to go to the county and take a look. How many county heads and county party secretaries are in their forties? Which one of them is not in their 40s or 50s? "Zhang Mingfang snorted." But I am not the County Head or the County Secretary. I want to be one. " Li Ruixin said. It turned out that she wanted to be a leader of the Party and Government. This request was not unreasonable and was reasonable. After all, being in charge of a district and being in charge of a municipal government were two completely different concepts. Obviously, the former held more power and was easier to be promoted. If it were him, he would have thought the same. He silently remembered her request and said, "No matter what, at your age, you can be considered to have reached a high position. Do you have any techniques for promotion?"
Zhang Mingfang sneered and said, "Xiao Rui, you still don't know about this in the officialdom. There are no techniques for promotion. It depends on whether you have someone above you. Haven't you heard the joke? In the officialdom, you can't be like a widow. There's always no one above you. You can't be like Miss, there's always someone above you. You can't be like a married couple in bed, there's always someone above you. You can't be like a married couple in bed, there's always someone above you … "Li Rui couldn't help but laugh when he heard this and said," It's the first time I've heard someone say that. "Zhang Mingfang charmingly glanced at him and said," What's so funny? When husband and wife do things, aren't they always the same? "
Li Rui interrupted to express his opinion and said, "In bed, it's happy for each other. But in the officialdom, it's hurting each other." Zhang Mingfang nodded and said, "The reason why I, your sister, was able to rush out from the thousands of troops and finally get a position as a division head was because my cousin promoted me. Alas, it's a pity that he can't protect me anymore. " Li Ruixin knew that even if she didn't want to be promoted from a deputy division head to a division head, she still had to go through the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee. In other words, she had to go through the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. If the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee didn't agree, then no one could be promoted. What kind of person was her cousin? How could he promote her so easily? He asked, "Who is your cousin?"
Zhang Mingfang whispered, "Zhang Wenlin! Do you know? "Li Rui was shocked. He immediately stood up from his seat and looked at her in disbelief. Zhang Mingfang looked at him and asked curiously, "What's wrong with you?" Li Rui called out, "Zhang Wenlin? The former Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee? "Zhang Mingfang innocently nodded and said," What's wrong? "Li Rui was very surprised and said," He … he's your cousin? " Zhang Mingfang's beautiful eyes widened. She looked at him with a hesitant expression and said, "What's wrong with that? Why are you so surprised?" Li Rui also felt that he had overreacted. He hurriedly sat back down and said in a low voice, "He's actually your cousin … Oh my god, sis, you actually have such a powerful background." Zhang Mingfang sneered and said, "What powerful? That's all in the past. You also know that he was bullied by others. He won't be able to make a comeback. Without him protecting me, I won't be able to make any progress. "
Li Rui calmed down and said, "Then do you know Yuan Xiaodi?" Zhang Mingfang said, "Of course I know him. He's my cousin's secretary. How can I not know him? I even introduced him to … "Li Rui didn't wait for her to finish and said," He's my master now. "Zhang Mingfang couldn't help laughing and said," Your master? " Li Rui said, "Yes. When I first worked as a secretary for Song Shuji, I didn't have any experience. The Secretary General told me to be his disciple. He did teach me a lot of good things. I have a good relationship with him." Zhang Mingfang nodded and said, "He's a good person, just like you. Hehe."
As the two were talking, Shen Yuanzhu pushed the door open and returned to the private room.
Zhang Mingfang raised her glass and said, "Come on, sister. Let's drink." Shen Yuanzhu smiled bitterly and said, "I'm already dizzy. I still have to drive later." Zhang Mingfang said, "It's okay. You're an office director. How can this little wine make you drunk …"
Li Rui ignored the two women as they chatted and drank. He thought to himself that he had found out about her background. When he saw the boss later, he would have something to say. He didn't know why the boss was interested in her background. Could it be that he suspected that she had an impure motive for taking the initiative to join them?
The dinner lasted until 8: 15. The atmosphere was very good. Li Rui and Zhang Mingfang were getting closer and closer. Zhang Mingfang and Shen Yuanzhu, who met each other for the first time, were also very intimate. In the end, they held hands and were almost like sisters.
The three of them drank a lot of wine, but their alcohol tolerance was not bad. As an office director, Shen Yuanzhu had a lot of social activities during her work. Her alcohol tolerance had long been trained. Drinking wine was like drinking water. Although she blushed at the beginning, she only blushed at the end and didn't show any signs of being drunk. Zhang Mingfang climbed from the bottom step to the position of bureau chief step by step. It was also a test of alcohol. No matter how much she drank, she wouldn't get drunk. In comparison, among the three of them, Li Rui's alcohol tolerance was the lowest. When the dinner ended, he was already a little dizzy. It wasn't a problem for him to walk.
After Zhang Mingfang asked Shen Yuanzhu if she would drive him home, she shook hands with the two of them in the parking lot outside the hotel. She drove a silver car and left first.
Shen Yuanzhu looked at Li Rui and smiled, "Are you okay?" Shen Yuanzhu laughed and said, "Really?" Li Rui said, "If you don't believe me, you can try." Shen Yuanzhu giggled and said, "I bought three of those things, you can use them all." Li Rui said, "Good, you really did prepare them for me. Shen Yuanzhu laughed and said, "I'm not going to take advantage of you, I'm going to take advantage of you! Are you scared?" Li Rui shook his head and said, "Tsk, I'm not scared of you." Shen Yuanzhu smiled and said, "Then get in the car." Li Rui asked, "Where are we going?" Shen Yuanzhu said, "We'll go wherever you say."
The two of them walked one after another to Shen Yuanzhu's white car. They opened the door and sat in.
Shen Yuanzhu inserted the key and started the car. She turned to Li Rui and smiled, "Tell me, where are we going?" Li Rui closed his eyes and rested on the headrest and said, "I still have something to do. I can't go back too late. You can do as you see fit." Shen Yuanzhu drove out of the car park and quickly merged into the metal flood on the street. She casually asked, "What's the matter?" Li Rui smiled and said, "I'm not telling you." As he spoke, he placed his hand on her thigh and started to caress her through her pants and asked, "Why aren't you wearing your police uniform today?" Shen Yuanzhu said, "I'm not working today, why would I wear my police uniform?" Li Rui said, "You're prettier in your police uniform. After all, you're the most beautiful girl in the police force."
Shen Yuanzhu smiled and said, "How am I considered a beautiful girl in the police force? I'm already old. The real beautiful girl in the police force is the Duan Xiaoqian. Speaking of which, how do you know her?" Li Rui sighed and said, "Don't talk about it. Just talking about it makes me angry … Oh right, when you see a pharmacy up ahead, stop for me. My stomach isn't good. I need to buy some medicine." Shen Yuanzhu looked at him anxiously and said, "Is it serious? Do you want to go to the hospital?" Li Rui smiled at her and said, "With your words, my stomach feels warm. My stomach will be better in no time. Why would I need to go to the hospital?" Shen Yuanzhu said angrily, "I'm not joking. I'm being serious. If you're sick, it's best to go to the hospital."
After passing the intersection, there was a large pharmacy not far from the right.
Shen Yuanzhu saw it clearly and stopped the car by the side of the road and said, "What medicine do you want to buy? I'll go buy it for you." Li Rui opened the car door and said, "No need. You rest for a while. I'll go buy it." Shen Yuanzhu said honestly, "Okay, hurry up."
