Officialdom: After My Demotion, My Powerful Background Was Exposed

When his superior retired, Li Lin, as his secretary, was implicated and demoted to an indefinite secondment as deputy township head in a remote rural town.

With no backing, Li Lin's polit...

Chapter 358 Women are Water

Li Lin nodded at him and said, "Stand guard at the door and don't let anyone in."

"good."

Zhang Yupei was very obedient. Without asking the reason, he put away the notebook, got up and left, closed the door, and quietly stood guard at the door.

Li Lin probably knew what Bai Jie was going to say. It was definitely a topic unrelated to work, so there was no need to record it.

After Zhang Yupei left, he stood up and looked around, and found that the office was simply furnished, with no office equipment, cameras or anything like that.

He walked to the tea cabinet, found a paper cup, poured a glass of water, handed it to Bai Jie, and said, "Tell me, what difficulties have you encountered?"

Although he knew that Bai Jie would not really encounter any difficulties, he was now having a discussion with Bai Jie in the name of office, so he still had to say what needed to be said.

Bai Jie did not reach out to take the cup of water that Li Lin handed over, but turned her head away from Li Lin, as if she was still full of resentment towards Li Lin... The moment she turned her head away, she couldn't help but burst into tears again.

Women are really made of water...

Li Lin felt very annoyed!

He put the cup of water on the coffee table in front of Bai Jie, sat back in his original position, and said to her in a cold tone, "Since you have nothing to say, drink this cup of water and leave."

Bai Jie wiped her tears, took a deep breath, slowly turned around, and looked Li Lin straight in the eye.

Li Lin did not dodge or evade, his eyes were calm.

Finally, Bai Jie slowly spoke, "Li Lin, why do you treat me like this? Even if we are not in a relationship anymore, am I not even worthy of being your ordinary friend? I have already apologized to you, what else do you want me to do? Do you want me to kneel down for you? Do you know that your turning a blind eye to me is like a sword that deeply hurts me, makes me blame myself, makes me feel inferior, and makes me so ashamed that I can't raise my head. Can't you be kinder to me, more tolerant to me, and give me even a little bit of a kind smile? Li Lin... I beg you, please don't treat me like this, okay?"

forgive?

You are not even worthy of my hatred, how can I forgive you?

Li Lin crossed his hands, propped up his chin, and said calmly, "Okay, I forgive you, do you have anything else to say?"

ah?

Are you forgiven now?

Why does it feel like these words coming out of Li Lin's mouth sound so casual and perfunctory?

Bai Jie was stunned and asked in disbelief, "You...are you really willing to forgive me?"

Li Lin was too lazy to say any more nonsense to her, not to mention that this was a meaningless question.

He smiled faintly and said, "As long as you feel happy."

There was a flash of surprise in Bai Jie's eyes. She didn't realize at all that Li Lin just didn't want to get too entangled with her.

"If there's nothing else, let's call it a day today. I still have work to do." As he said this, Li Lin stood up, buttoned up his suit, and prepared to leave.

Bai Jie quickly stood up and said, "Since you have forgiven me, then don't block my phone number. Let's add each other as friends again..."

This is a bit too much.

Li Lin said to her calmly, "No need to add me as a friend. There is no need for us to keep in touch."

"Didn't you just say that you forgive me? Then we are still friends, right? If we are friends, how can you not even have contact information?" Bai Jie was surprised and didn't understand what Li Lin's attitude towards her was.

friend?

Being friends with someone who betrayed you?

What's more, she is a woman with no moral bottom line...how is it possible!

Li Lin looked at her and said seriously, "You misunderstood. We are not friends... Is there anything else, Teacher Bai?"

"Li Lin, you!" Bai Jie was a little mad, she felt aggrieved and angry! But facing the always calm Li Lin, no matter what tricks she used, it was like a punch on cotton, making people unwilling but helpless.

Li Lin's eyes were filled with indifference and indifference. The imagined warmth did not appear, not even a trace of pity... Bai Jie realized belatedly that Li Lin's "forgiveness" was just a perfunctory remark...

Ten minutes later, Li Lin walked out of the office.

Zhang Yupei asked quickly, "Leader, is there anything you need me to write down and follow up on?"

Li Lin said, "You can find out more about Teacher Bai's situation later. She said that she was originally selected for the city's employment, but was assigned to teach in the county. She is not satisfied with the treatment she is receiving. After you have a clear understanding of the situation, you can communicate with Director Yang and report it to the municipal bureau to see what the city's opinion is."

"Oh, so that's how it is...Okay, I'll make a note of it." Upon learning that Bai Jie was complaining about her treatment, Zhang Yupei suddenly realized and nodded repeatedly.

See Li Lin come out.

Yang Shuangping trotted over to meet him.

Seeing that Li Lin looked normal, he heaved a sigh of relief and guessed that the teacher probably did not report any sensitive issues to Li Lin.

But he was still a little worried, so he asked Li Lin tentatively, "County Magistrate Li, I'm really sorry. I didn't do my job well enough, and I have to ask you to help solve it... I will ask you to follow up on the problem raised by this teacher and give her a satisfactory answer."

Li Lin looked at him calmly and said, "I have already explained the specific situation to Yu Pei. You two can work together to discuss and solve it. For now, let's leave it at that. It's getting late. Let's hurry to the next school."

Yang Shuangping was relieved to hear Li Lin's calm tone and agreed, "Okay, let's go to the next school now."

At this time, Bai Jie also walked out of the office leisurely.

The moment Yang Shuangping saw her, he couldn't help but feel angry. He glared at Bai Jie fiercely, as if to say, you are really looking for trouble. You come from a cadre family, but what kind of quality do you have!
