Neither of them knew him, so they were a little stunned when they saw him.
When the old man saw Song Chaoyang, he rudely asked, "You are Song Chaoyang, right?" Song Chaoyang was very good at maintaining his composure, so he didn't get angry when he heard that. He said, "I am. And you are, old sir?" The old man snorted, "I am Wang Bin's father. I am here to reason with you." Song Chaoyang couldn't help but smile and said, "You are Wang Bin's father from the City Traffic Police Detachment? You are here to reason with me? "The old man shouted," Yes! "Song Chaoyang smiled and said," Okay, then please come in. Let's sit inside and talk. Xiao Rui, quickly make tea for the old sir. " The old man walked inside and said, "Xiao Song, don't call me old sir. I am not old at all. I am currently the honorary president of the City People's Congress Policy Research Association, and also the honorary vice president of the City Family Planning Association. I am still working in a revolutionary position. The retired old cadres in the city respect me very much, and I am willing to continue to contribute after retirement. Although I can't compare to you young men in your prime, I still have some ability … "
Although Li Rui had never seen this old man before, he already knew from his master that since he was Wang Bin's father, he should be Wang Yongyou, the retired head of the People's Congress. Seeing him being invited inside by Song Chaoyang and boasting about himself, he couldn't help but feel angry and amused at the same time.
It was important to know one's own limitations. One should never take advantage of one's seniority, especially in officialdom. If one was still in power, they would still give one some face if they tried to show off a little. If one retired and still wanted to show off, then sorry. If one gave one face, it was a reward; if one didn't give one face, it was a slap to one's face. There was nothing one could do.
This Wang Yongyou in front of him didn't seem to know his own limitations. He had retired for so many years, but he still considered himself an old cadre in the city. He even threatened Song Chaoyang with his words. This was too ridiculous. Song Chaoyang has the support of the Provincial Party Committee. Wang Yongyou, no matter how many connections you have, who can protect you at your age? To put it bluntly, the old guys who can protect you have already gone to the west to talk about Marxism. Those who haven't died are almost dying. They can't even protect themselves, so why would they protect you? Although Chinese people generally respect the elderly, if you don't want face, then don't blame others for not respecting you.
Li Rui went in to make tea for Wang Yongyou.
Wang Yongyou glanced at him from the corner of his eyes and said, "The current trend is really outrageous. What's the point of using such a beautiful secretary?" Li Rui was already disgusted with him. Hearing this, he cursed him even more. He poured him a cup of tea and brought it to him. Then, he turned and left.
Wang Yongyou purposely said in an old voice, "Xiao Song, I retired from the position of the Municipal People's Congress. When I was the Director, you were still a village official. Even now, you are only a candidate for the position of the Municipal People's Congress. You still need to be elected as the acting Director by the Standing Committee of the Municipal People's Congress. Next year, when the National People's Congress convenes, you will be promoted. I am standing in front of you. I am a complete senior. Are you convinced … "
Li Rui went out of the room and closed the door. He shook his head. He had seen shameless people before, but he had never seen someone as shameless as Wang Yongyou. He didn't know if Wang Yongyou had lost his brain after he got old, or if he was just talking nonsense because he was retired and had connections in the city. He actually dared to talk to the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee like that. Was he tired of living? He really didn't treat the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee as an official. Luckily, the boss had a good temper. If it were him, he would have slammed the table and asked Wang Yongyou to leave.
He sat in his chair, composed himself, and began to write the speech for Song Chaoyang about being honest in politics. Before writing, he first went online to check the news and comments about "being honest in politics" so that he had a good idea. Then, he gathered the strengths of a hundred schools of thought and began to type the speech on the computer.
He was a liberal arts graduate, and he used to write a lot of materials when he was in the flood prevention department of the Water Conservancy Bureau. At this time, writing a speech like this was a piece of cake for him. In addition, his master, Yuan Xiaodi, had helped him before. In addition, he had just dipped into the information on the Internet. It was as if he had the help of God. When Wang Yongyou came out of Song Chaoyang's office, he had already written about a thousand words.
Song Chaoyang personally saw Wang Yongyou out, and Li Rui followed him. He saw that Wang Yongyou's face was ashen, and he didn't seem very happy.
Li Rui and Song Chaoyang went back into the room and cleaned up the cup that Wang Yongyou had used. He sighed and said, "This old director is really taking advantage of his seniority. He didn't think about what right he has to be so arrogant. In my opinion, Wang Bin was printed in the same mold as him. This is called like father like son. "Song Chaoyang sneered and said," He's not just arrogant. He even threatened me. He said that if I didn't give him a way out, I would be in trouble at the National People's Congress next year. Haha, I don't believe that an old man like him, who has been retired for nearly twenty years, can affect my election to the National People's Congress. " Li Rui said, "Even if he has a group of relatives, friends, and colleagues, he's already so old. How many of his connections are still in power? Even if a few of them are still in power, how many of them can be National People's Congress members? He thinks too highly of himself. If he really has the ability, he should just become the Provincial Secretary. "
Song Chaoyang seemed to be moved by this and said with a smile, "I won't lower myself to his level. I've already given the father and son enough face. If they still don't know what's good for them, then don't blame me for being ruthless. Haha, that's right. Xiao Rui, how's your talk with the Qingman girl from the Provincial Capital? " Li Rui was slightly surprised when he heard this. He rubbed his nose and said with a smile, "It's okay. We're in contact every day." Song Chaoyang said, "You have to hurry. If you don't hurry now, it'll be difficult to pursue her in the future." Li Rui didn't understand and said, "Boss, what do you mean? How will it be difficult in the future? "Song Chaoyang smiled and waved his hand." You'll know in the future. But for now, you have to hurry. Otherwise, if the Qingman is snatched away by someone else, you'll regret it. "Li Rui smiled and said," Okay, I'll definitely hurry. But this matter can't be rushed … "
After work, Song Chaoyang worked for a while. Li Rui took the opportunity to finish his speech and polished it a few times. When he felt that there were no problems, he took it in and showed it to Song Chaoyang.
After Song Chaoyang saw it, he nodded and praised, "Mm, as expected of a top graduate from the Political Science Department. This speech is written very well. Well, you don't need to change anything else. Just use it directly. But there are some flaws … Let me think. How about this? You can add in two more points. First, emphasize the importance of honest government. Second, emphasize the City Council's determination to fight against corruption. You can use sharper words. At most, you can change it if it's not suitable. "Li Rui said," Okay, I understand. I'll change it again. "Song Chaoyang stood up and said," That's all for today. Let's go and eat. "
After dinner, on the way back to the hotel, Song Chaoyang said, "Come with me to the provincial capital this weekend. I have to report to the Provincial Party Committee leader." Li Rui naturally agreed. Song Chaoyang smiled and said, "You can also meet Lu Qingman while you're at it. You can't call her every day. When it's time to meet, you have to meet … "
When the two arrived at the VIP building, they bumped into Li Xiao Yue. Song Chaoyang called Li Xiao Yue into his room and asked her about Zhang Jilong's evil deeds in front of Li Rui. Li Xiao Yue told Song Chaoyang that the report letter had been written and could be sent out at any time. As for how to call the police, she didn't know how to call and needed his instructions.
The three of them talked until nine o 'clock. Li Rui and Li Xiao Yue left at the same time.
Li Xiao Yue warmly invited Li Rui to sit at her place for a while. Li Rui was still thinking about his promise with Yuan Jingjing, so he tactfully declined.
After leaving the hotel, Li Rui found a quiet place as usual and called Lu Qingman first. The two of them chatted intimately for a while. Li Rui told her that he might go to the provincial capital with Song Chaoyang this weekend and that he would visit her when he had time. Lu Qingman was very happy to hear that and told him to call her when he arrived. After the call, Li Rui suddenly wished he could see Lu Qingman right now. He wanted to see her shy oval face, hear her graceful and gentle voice, and savor the warmth of talking with her … Luckily, the weekend wasn't far away. He would see her in two days. Thinking of this, the lovesickness in his heart slightly subsided.
After the call, Li Rui hailed a taxi and rushed to Yuan Jingjing's house. He was afraid that she would trick him or that the situation at home had changed, so he didn't dare call her. Instead, he sent her a text: [I'm coming over now. Nothing has changed, right?] Yuan Jingjing quickly replied: [Won't you know when you get there?]
Li Rui saw that she was still using the same seductive tone as last time to talk to him. He was so angry that he almost laughed out loud. He thought to himself, I was blinded by lust last time and that was why you took advantage of me. This time, I won't fall for your trick no matter what. He thought that this woman was as cunning as a wolf and as slippery as a fox. If he were to fight her head-on, he would be no match for her. He suddenly remembered that the only time he won against her was when he used force. He muttered to himself, Could it be that I have to use force to suppress her this time?
Of course, in his heart, the so-called use of force this time was no longer rape, but a way to conquer Yuan Jingjing. Yuan Jingjing was right. Now that he was in a high position, he couldn't afford to make any mistakes. If he really did rape her, she would threaten him instead. The feeling would definitely be very unpleasant. He had to cherish his feathers. After all, not every sparrow could become a phoenix!
