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 49 Made the Miss Cry

Are you kidding? You asked me to pretend. What's wrong?

Yang Ping turned her head and glared at Li Lin with resentment on her face.

The gaze was as sharp as two knives. Li Lin couldn't afford to offend him, so he had to pretend he didn't see it.

"Okay, then I, an ordinary colleague, will not disturb you two from talking about private matters. Goodbye."

Yang Ping didn't get a response from Li Lin, so she stood up and was about to leave angrily.

Without waiting for Li Lin to ask her to stay, Liu Yuan smiled and said, "Sister Ping, right? Thank you very much for creating a space for us to be alone together. Goodbye."

Liu Yuan was a little proud and waved at Yang Ping repeatedly, wishing she would leave immediately.

Yang Ping felt uncomfortable looking at Liu Yuan's smug expression. She really wanted to hear Li Lin's request to stay. Even if it was just a polite remark, she would sit down without hesitation to annoy this Miss Liu!

She turned her head and looked at Li Lin again, with even more resentment in her eyes, as if she was rebuking Li Lin for forgetting his friends for the sake of beauty.

"Sister Ping, I'll come find you later."

Li Lin said with a smile and did not try to keep him.

This is also the way to entertain guests. When guests come from afar, you should always give them some time to talk alone.

Yang Ping walked out angrily, twisting her slender waist, and her buttocks were shaking with anger.

The bodyguard tactfully closed the door, leaving only Li Lin and Liu Yuan in the room.

"I heard that you were in the provincial capital, right? You came back suddenly, is there something wrong?"

Li Lin asked casually while taking a sip of tea.

"I've been back in Pingyang for two days. I've been hesitating whether to come and see you. Suddenly I saw your photo in the group this morning, and I couldn't help but come and see you."

Liu Yuan sat down and said affectionately.

Li Lin quickly changed the subject, not intending to discuss their relationship in depth. "I heard that your family is in the new building materials business. How about it? Are you interested in investing and building a factory in Weishui Township?"

Liu Yuan turned a deaf ear to him and stared into Li Lin's eyes, as if talking to herself, "I have been unable to forget you all these years. You are the first person who rejected me. Because I couldn't get the love I wanted, I hated you. But when I saw you today, I suddenly couldn't hate you anymore. Li Lin, can you give me a chance..."

Her eyes were red and seemed about to burst out at any time.

Li Lin was a bit confused. He didn't like seeing women cry, but he wasn't good at coaxing people either...

"Um...Liu Yuan, don't be like this."

"With your status and position, you can definitely find someone who is a good match for you..."

"We are two completely parallel lines. You are on top and I am on the bottom. There is no point of intersection."

"so..."

"Even two parallel lines will intersect one day when time and space are distorted. From the day I met you, my time and space have been distorted." Liu Yuan said with tears in her eyes and full of affection.

She admitted that their identities were very different, Li Lin was on earth and she was in heaven.

But she was unwilling to accept it. She didn't believe that Li Lin had no feelings for her at all.

Li Lin put away his smile and calmed down.

He could feel it no matter how sincere and eager Liu Yuan appeared.

In her heart, she always thought that Li Lin was a person of low status.

Her arrogance has penetrated into her bones.

This is also the reason why Li Lin keeps his distance from her. He can't follow this woman around all day and act according to her mood.

"What if this line always avoids you and is unwilling to intersect with you?" Li Lin said calmly.

Liu Yuan was stunned.

Yes, even if time and space are distorted, it cannot bring closer a heart that wants to stay away from you.

She gave up and burst into tears.

"Except for my father, you are the first man who makes me cry." Liu Yuan said with a wry smile.

Li Lin took out a tissue and handed it to her, saying casually, "Okay, isn't it good to be friends?"

Liu Yuan took it, but did not wipe her tears. Instead, she suddenly stood up and threw herself into Li Lin's arms.

Li Lin was stunned, feeling the warmth and softness in his arms, and was at a loss as to what to do.

"Can't you just hug me and comfort me?"

"Don't worry, I won't pester you. After today, I'll let it go."

"Give me a hug, okay?"

Liu Yuan's hot tears wet Li Lin's chest.

Li Lin took a breath, smiled and patted her on the back twice, "Okay, I'm not as good as you think. I hope you can find your ideal boyfriend soon."

"Don't worry, I will definitely find a boyfriend who is a hundred times better than you." Liu Yuan left Li Lin's arms, sat down again, and tried her best to calm herself down.

"That's natural. You are the eldest daughter of Longjian Group. The people chasing after you must be lined up in outer space."

Li Lin joked, trying to lighten the mood.

Liu Yuan forced a smile and said, "I'm going back to the provincial capital tomorrow. I'm going to treat our high school classmates to dinner tonight. Can you do me the honor?"

Li Lin was in a dilemma. Since the "regulations" were issued, class reunions, comrades-in-arms reunions... became topics that civil servants tried to avoid.

Besides, apart from Gao Qiang and Shen Lingli, he was only familiar with the faces of the others in high school.

For example, when he met the woman this morning who claimed to be his high school classmate, he had no impression of her at all.

Is it meaningful to attend such a class reunion?

Li Lin smiled and declined. "It's not easy for you to come to Weishui Township. So, how about I play the role of a good host and have a simple meal in our township cafeteria tonight?"

Liu Yuan looked at Li Lin with confusion and surprise.

I just wanted to invite him to dinner, don't you have any sense of courtesy at all?

She is the president of a multi-billion dollar company, and getting her invitation is something many people dream of.
