The two exchanged some pleasantries before hanging up.
Li Rui was confused. He didn't know what Zhang Bing meant. He thought to himself, If Zhang Bing called to ask about the incident he mentioned during dinner last time, the incident where he was arrested by the traffic police for drunk driving, I would be willing to help him. However, Zhang Bing didn't mention it from the beginning to the end, so I couldn't make any wild guesses. Sigh, strange.
Zhang Bing put down his phone and sighed heavily.
His wife saw this and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you sighing? " Zhang Bing walked over and sat beside her. "Did I tell you? There's a big shot in my class. He's now the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. He's the leader of the General Office Secretariat of the Municipal Party Committee. He's a big shot. I want to hug him. But he didn't agree. "His wife curled her lips and said," You're not in the political circle. What's the use of hugging him? " Zhang Bing said, "Aiya, I've grown my hair and short my knowledge. Who said hugging him is only useful in the political circle? Even if I'm not in the political circle, hugging him will bring me endless benefits. You know Yang Peng, right? He's my junior high classmate. "His wife said," I know him. Why? "
Zhang Bing said excitedly, "It's this Yang Peng. He opened two mahjong tables in the beginning and did nothing all day long. He didn't even make much money in a year. But now, because he has a good relationship with Li Rui, he's been promoted by Li Rui to be the director of a processing plant. He earns a few thousand a month. He has both status and money … "
His wife interrupted, "Are you jealous?" Zhang Bing said, "Why should I be jealous? My relationship with Li Rui is just so-so. It's understandable that he didn't promote me. But now I've thought it through. I didn't have a good relationship with him in the past. I can cultivate a good relationship with him now. If we become good friends, won't he promote me? He is such a big shot, I won't be able to accept even a little help from him. Ha ha … "His wife hesitantly asked," How are you going to develop a good relationship with him? "Zhang Bing proudly said," I have my own brilliant plan. It's not too late now. Go to the supermarket downstairs and prepare a few gifts. I'll go to his house. "His wife said in surprise," It's not the New Year. Why are you giving gifts? Isn't it too obvious that you're flattering him? Aren't you embarrassed? "
Zhang Bing laughed, "What's there to be embarrassed about? I went to flatter him, I wanted him to see that I was interested in following him. After a while, even if he didn't like me, he would still like me. This is called 'where there is a will, there is a way'! "His wife humphed," Bullshit, I think you are saying 'where there is a thick face, there is a way'. " Zhang Bing said, "Don't worry about what I have. As long as I succeed, it's fine. Go buy the gifts. I'll ask someone to find out where he lives." His wife stood up and said, "What's the standard?" Zhang Bing said, "He doesn't smoke, so we won't buy cigarettes. Buy two bottles of good wine and a few gift boxes. Four to five hundred yuan is enough. He's used to seeing people give gifts. He doesn't care what we give. It's the feelings. Haha. "His wife muttered," It's four to five hundred yuan and you still think it's not enough … "
After his wife went downstairs, Zhang Bing called Ding Yijing and asked, "That … do you know where Li Rui lives?" Ding Yijing said coldly, "Zhang Bing, what do you mean? How did you find out where Li Rui's house is?" Zhang Bing laughed and said, "Aren't you and Li Rui the best?" Ding Yijing scolded, "Scram, don't make fun of me." Zhang Bing said, "I'm not making fun of you, I'm serious. Just tell me." Ding Yijing asked curiously, "Why are you going to his house?" Zhang Bing laughed and said, "To get closer to my old classmate."
Ding Yijing suddenly received a call from Zhang Bing. It turned out that he had inquired about Li Rui's address and found out that she was here. She was very puzzled. She thought to herself, If he wanted to find Li Rui, couldn't he just call him directly? Why does he have to go to his house? Even if he has to go to his house, can't he just ask where he lives? Why did he ask me? Is he asking for directions or is he making fun of me? She said coldly, "I don't know." Zhang Bing laughed and said, "That's impossible. If you don't know, who else would know? " Ding Yijing said angrily, "Who wants to know? Anyway, I don't know. You can ask someone else." Zhang Bing heard that she was going to hang up, so he hurriedly said, "I'm serious. I'm not kidding. If you know, just tell me. I … Hey, I'm going to his house to deliver something. "
Ding Yijing's curiosity was aroused again. She asked, "What is it? Can't you just ask him where he lives? "Zhang Bing said tactfully," It's nothing. I'm just walking around with my classmates. Hehe. "
When Ding Yijing heard the word "walking around", she realized that he was going to Li Rui's house to deliver a gift. Maybe he was worried that he would be rejected if he told Li Rui, so he wanted to go directly to his house. She couldn't help but laugh in her heart. He and Li Rui didn't have any friendship. What kind of good intentions would he have if he suddenly sent a gift? She also felt a little emotional. When they were in junior high school, they were all equal classmates. After more than ten years, they all went into society and were divided into different classes. From the gift he gave to Li Rui, it could be seen that Li Rui had become the top figure among the group of old classmates. As someone who was entangled with him emotionally, was this happy or sad?
She calmed herself down and said, "I really don't know where he lives. I've never been there. Why don't you ask Yang Peng? Yang Peng definitely knows." Zhang Bing said involuntarily, "Yeah, how could I forget about that kid? When I think of Li Rui's best classmate, it's you. I actually forgot about that kid. Aiya … Okay, okay, I'll contact him now. Sorry to trouble you. I'm hanging up. "
After the phone call, Ding Yijing was already frowning. She didn't know what Zhang Bing meant. Why did he keep hinting that she had an intimate relationship with Li Rui? Could it be that in the eyes of these outsiders, she and Li Rui already had that kind of relationship? It can't be. When did she and he appear in front of her old classmates as a couple? Moreover, wasn't Zhang Bing close to Li Rui? He definitely knew that Li Zhichao was pursuing her. Why did he keep mentioning her entanglement with Li Rui? What was this guy thinking in his head? Suddenly, she thought that the reason why he said that was related to him going to Li Rui's house to deliver a gift. He was going to Li Rui's house to deliver a gift. Naturally, it was a sign of goodwill. Therefore, he had to cater to his interests. He knew that Li Rui also liked her very much. So, he was trying to matchmake the two of them? If that was really what he was thinking, this guy was really smart.
At 7: 30 pm, it was estimated that the Li family had already eaten dinner. Zhang Bing came alone with the gift. In theory, bringing his wife along to visit together would make it seem more formal. It would also show that he valued the other party. However, Zhang Bing secretly thought that he hadn't even established a preliminary friendship with Li Rui. If he brought his wife to visit, would he be annoyed? Moreover, if there was one more person, he wouldn't be able to show that he was an important person. Therefore, it was better to only bring himself for the first visit. It wouldn't be too late to bring his wife after he had established a deep friendship with Li Rui. Maybe then, he could even do some "wife diplomacy".
In the Li family, only Li Jianmin was at home. When he opened the door, he didn't recognize Zhang Bing. He was slightly surprised and asked, "Who are you looking for?" Zhang Bing smiled and said, "You must be Uncle. I'm Li Rui's old classmate. My name is Zhang Bing. "Li Jianmin smiled and said," Oh, it's Xiao Rui. Come in and have a seat. "After saying that, he opened the door wide and let him in. Zhang Bing carried the gift into the house and asked casually, "Is Li Rui home?" Li Jianmin said, "He's not home …" After saying that, he saw that Zhang Bing's hands were full of gifts. He was slightly surprised and said, "You didn't have to bring gifts. You're old classmates. Why are you so polite?" Zhang Bing smiled and put the gifts on the dining table and said, "It's the first time I come home. How can I come home empty-handed? Li Rui doesn't eat at home during the weekend? "
Li Jianmin said, "He doesn't have any weekends. Weekends are busier than weekdays. You didn't call him before you came?" Zhang Bing smiled bitterly and said, "No, I thought he would be home." Li Jianmin invited him into the living room and went to the landline and said, "I'll call him and see if he's busy. If he's not busy, ask him to come home." Zhang Bing quickly stood up and stopped him and said, "Uncle, don't call him. Li Rui is working as the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. He's busy with important matters. Don't disturb him. Haha, I don't have anything to do. I'm just here to visit. "Li Jianmin said," That's not good. "Zhang Bing waved his hand and said," It's okay. Uncle, please have a seat. If he's not home, I'll leave after sitting for a while. "
While Zhang Bing was at home, Li Rui, Lu Qingman and Gao Zixuan were having dinner with a leader.
This leader was not an outsider. He was Gao Zixuan's uncle, a member of the Qingyang Municipal Party Committee and the political commissar of the military division, Gao Guosong.
When Li Rui came to this restaurant and saw the two girls, he didn't expect that Gao Zixuan had actually invited her uncle, Gao Guosong, to have a meal together. When Gao Guosong appeared in the private room, he was instantly stunned. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and quickly regained his senses. He went up to greet him with a smile.
Gao Guosong did not put on airs at all. He smiled and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Li Rui, I know you. Not bad, not bad." Li Rui was confused by the praise. He thought to himself, What did I do wrong? Why do you keep praising me? But he could not ask. He could only bury his doubts deep in his heart and invite him to take a seat.
