The door of the building was only so big, if he could see the Duan Xiaoqian, then the Duan Xiaoqian could see him too.
The Duan Xiaoqian saw him and was slightly surprised, she stopped and asked, "Why are you here again?" Li Rui pointed inside and whispered, "To accompany Song Shuji." The Duan Xiaoqian said, "Why is he here again?" Li Rui said, "To see the Provincial Public Security Bureau Chief Wei Qiang." The Duan Xiaoqian said, "Oh, then you go up, see you later." Li Rui asked, "Are you getting off work?" The Duan Xiaoqian curled her lips and stared at him with disdain, "Have you seen anyone getting off work dressed like this? We are going to investigate the gunman. "Li Rui looked at the sky and said," It's already dark, what are you investigating for? "The Duan Xiaoqian said," What do you know, we only investigate when it's dark. "Li Rui smiled and asked," Where are you going to investigate? "The Duan Xiaoqian said," Why are you asking about this? What does it have to do with you? "
The Duan Xiaoqian said, "Just asking." Li Rui said. The Duan Xiaoqian snorted, "Don't give me that. Let me tell you, if you want to know where I'm going, it's very simple, you just have to agree to one of my conditions." Li Rui smiled and said, "Tell me." The Duan Xiaoqian slightly raised her snow-white chin and said proudly, "It's very simple, you come with me to investigate." Li Rui laughed and said, "Why, are you dragging me into this? I'm not going, it's so dangerous, look at you wrapped up like a dumpling. "The Duan Xiaoqian kicked him and scolded," You're the dumpling. Humph, humph, I didn't expect you to be such a coward, a woman like me dares to catch the gunman, but a man like you doesn't have the guts. Sigh, fine, it's fine if you don't go. Then don't ask where I'm going. Li Rui said, "The word 'coward' doesn't exist in my dictionary." The Duan Xiaoqian turned around and said provocatively, "Then come with me. Do you dare?"
Li Rui pointed inside the building and said, "I still have to accompany Song Shuji, how can I accompany you?" Duan Xiaoqian asked, "Are you going to accompany him all night?" Li Rui said, "Of course not." Duan Xiaoqian said, "That's great. If we want to complete the mission, we'll have to investigate until eleven at night. You'll definitely be free by then. Do you dare to come? Humph, humph. "Li Rui laughed and said," What's in it for me to go? "The Duan Xiaoqian snorted and said," It's already too easy for you if I don't kick you. You still have the face to ask for benefits from me? You've ruined my reputation, do you know that? " Li Rui heard her mention the previous incident and felt a little apologetic in his heart and said, "Fine, as an apology, I'm willing to investigate with you. But the problem is, if you're with your colleagues, it wouldn't be right for me to follow! Who am I to you? I'm on a mission with you, aren't I? Haha. "Duan Xiaoqian said," Aren't you my brother? Isn't it natural for an older brother to accompany his younger sister? "Li Rui laughed and said," You're talking about an older brother, aren't you? " Duan Xiaoqian glared at him and was about to get angry, but she controlled her temper and said, "Are you coming or not?" Li Rui nodded and said, "Fine, I'll accompany you when I'm free."
After the two agreed, they went their separate ways.
When Li Rui chased upstairs, Song Chaoyang and Sun Yaozu were in the meeting room talking with Wei Qiang and other provincial and departmental level leaders. He didn't have the right to show his face in this kind of situation, so he simply stood outside the meeting room and waited.
After an hour, Song Chaoyang and Sun Yaozu left the Municipal Public Security Bureau and returned to the Qingyang Hotel to attend the banquet that was being held. The participants of the banquet were the same people from last night, which were the participants of the Municipal Party Committee's plenary meeting. There were also some more familiar faces, but they were the twenty or so beautiful waitresses in cheongsam from last night. Li Rui's niece, Li Xiaona, was also among them.
Perhaps she was already familiar with this kind of environment, or perhaps she was already familiar with most of the leaders present, so today, Li Xiaona was more and more natural and casual, without the slightest bit of restraint. She walked around in the restaurant, greeting and sending off people. It could be said that her attitude was free and easy, and her performance was outstanding. Her unique romantic temperament had left a deep impression on many people.
Li Rui found that the makeup on her face seemed to be heavier than last night, and she became more beautiful and moving. If she was a pretty girl from a humble family before, then tonight she was a social butterfly, charming and even a bit flirtatious. Several times when he saw her walk past him, he stared at her face again and again, almost not daring to recognize her. He felt that she had nothing to do with him, and was an independent beauty. Even a corner of his heart began to stir for her … After this thought came to him, he was shocked and hurriedly restrained his thoughts, not daring to let his imagination run wild.
At a certain time, the deputy secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, Yu Heping, suddenly stood up and called Li Xiaona, asking her to follow behind him with a bottle of wine. Then he took her to the mayor, Sun Yaozu, to propose a toast. On the surface, it was to propose a toast to him, but in fact, it was to make things difficult for him.
Yu Heping walked to Sun Yaozu with a smile and said, "Old man, give me face and drink with me." Sun Yaozu turned his head and saw that it was him. Although he didn't like it, he still laughed and said half-jokingly and half-sarcastically, "Since you're an old man, how can you drink with me? If you want to drink, drink at least three glasses. Otherwise, don't say that I didn't give you face, hehe. "
He knew that Yu Heping couldn't hold his liquor, and he also had alcoholic fatty liver, so he deliberately used drinking to get back at him.
Yu Heping's main purpose of drinking with him was to bring Li Xiaona here to show off. When he heard that they were going to drink three glasses, he was so scared that his face turned pale. He forced a smile and said, "Let's drink one glass first. The other two glasses can wait." After saying that, he reached out and hooked his arm around Li Xiaona's smooth arm. He said intimately, "Xiaona, come here. Fill the mayor's glass first, and then I'll drink with him."
Sun Yaozu had already had his eyes on Li Xiaona last night. He felt that she was the best in terms of both figure and appearance. However, considering his special identity, he was very worried about how to "get along" with her. Of course, as a high and mighty mayor, it wasn't a problem for him to have a lowly waitress. However, the problem was that she had to be beautiful, so she was willing to be with him. He couldn't take her by force. Otherwise, what was the point of having her? He had been worried about this, but it didn't affect that he had already regarded Li Xiaona as his exclusive property. No one else was allowed to touch her. Now that he saw Yu Heping bringing her here and holding her arm to talk to him, he was angry and sour. He really wanted to slap the table and scold him.
He stood up with a smile, picked up his glass, and said to Li Xiaona with a smile, "Just a little bit. It'll be full soon."
Li Xiaona held the bottle with both hands and carefully filled his glass. Then she obediently retreated behind Yu Heping and stopped moving.
In front of the people around, Sun Yaozu didn't want to mock Yu Heping. He thought to himself, "You old man, you actually got the name of the beautiful waitress without batting an eyelid. You're really shameless. You even brought her here to pour wine for me. What's the meaning of this? Are you here to show off? Humph, humph, you're just a deputy secretary. Do you really think you're something in front of me, the mayor? As long as I, Old Sun, want to, all the waitresses in this hotel will be mine. What can you get? " He said with a smile, "Come on, old man, let's drink. I hope you can support my work in the future. Haha."
They clinked their glasses and drank. Then Yu Heping left with Li Xiaona with satisfaction.
Sun Yaozu glanced at Li Xiaona's tall back and beautiful figure. He felt bitter in his heart. He sat back in his seat expressionlessly and frowned.
Yu Heping took Li Xiaona around the hotel and toasted all the people who needed to be toasted. Then he returned to his table and asked on the way, "Xiaona, it's a pity that such an excellent talent like you is only a waitress. Why don't I talk to the hotel for you and ask them to promote you to be the manager of the F&B Department according to your talents? "
Li Xiaona was a girl. As a girl, she had the common problems that all girls had, such as vanity and competition. Since she entered Qingyang Hotel, although she was taken care of by her uncle Li Rui and promoted by General Manager Dong Jieyu, she still felt that promotion was too slow. She didn't know how long it would take for her to succeed. She hoped very much that she could become a phoenix from a sparrow branch and become a middle-level or even a high-level leader in the hotel. Then her colleagues who used to look down on her would envy her to death.
However, she was not stupid. She knew that there was no such thing as love for no reason in this world. After listening to Yu Heping's words, she was excited at first, but soon calmed down. She thought to herself that if she was only promoted to the manager of the F&B Department, her uncle Li Rui had the ability to do so. He and General Manager Dong Jieyu were so close. As long as he told her, she would probably promote her. But why didn't they promote her? It was very simple. It was because she didn't have enough ability and experience, so they would train her for the time being. Besides, the manager of the F&B Department was doing well and didn't make any mistakes. There was no reason to promote her to replace him. If she really replaced him, she would make enemies. Now, what the Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee said seemed to be more of a bluff. She couldn't take it seriously. She said reservedly, "Thank you for your kindness, Secretary Yu, but I can't be the manager."
