Being good-looking may not seem like a huge advantage, but it is very important, as most women still value appearance.
If you're not good-looking, no matter how talented you are, people won't want to understand your inner qualities.
I think my appearance is acceptable, so the rest is about what I can offer to attract Su Ziying, that is, what advantages I have over other competitors.
My advantage is that I am more mature at work. Compared to my peers, who may have family connections, or who are just starting their careers and are in higher-level positions, such as provincial departments, even though they are also at the same level, they do not have as much power as I do.
They probably do more theoretical work.
I do practical work at the grassroots level, and to attract someone like Su Ziying, I need to demonstrate my strengths in this area. Meilin Village is my platform, allowing Su Ziying to discover her unique charm that sets her apart from her peers through my work.
Especially since this grassroots work is something I'm good at, it's even more conducive to showcasing my strengths.
There's a saying that goes, "A man who works hard is the most attractive." If Su Ziying sees him building up Meilin Village bit by bit, there's a good chance she'll be tempted.
However, if Su Ziying wants to see my work, I can't just talk about it; I need to let Su Ziying see it with her own eyes.
It just so happens that Wei Ke, the volunteer teacher in Meilin Village, was going back to the provincial capital a while ago, and Meilin Village was short of a volunteer teacher. So, we could use this as an excuse to send Su Ziying there, but we couldn't make it too obvious.
Li Xiuyuan made plans little by little until after 2 a.m. before going to bed. However, before going to bed, he locked the notebook filled with writing on the table and the photos he had brought back from the city in a drawer.
The next morning, after getting up, Li Xiuyuan drove directly back to the central town. On the playground of the town's middle school, he saw that beautiful figure in the distance. Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but quicken his pace. In fact, even putting aside Su Ziying's identity, Su Ziying herself was beautiful enough to make anyone's heart flutter.
"Teacher Su." Li Xiuyuan reverted to his previous form of address. Yesterday, he had deliberately changed his address to "Ziying" in the hopes of making friends and getting closer to her.
But now that I've decided to pursue Su Ziying, I can't be too obvious. Excellent hunters often appear as prey, so I can't go too far now and reveal my intentions.
Su Ziying wasn't surprised by Li Xiuyuan's words. Although Li Xiuyuan called her "Ziying" yesterday, she wasn't really used to being addressed so intimately by others. It was good that he called her "Teacher Su" again today.
"Mayor Li, did you not get enough rest yesterday? Your eyes are bloodshot," Su Ziying asked, looking Li Xiuyuan up and down.
Last night, after returning home from a business dinner in the city, Li Xiuyuan kept smoking and weighing the pros and cons. He didn't go to bed until after 2 a.m., and got up again at around 6 a.m. this morning. He slept for less than five hours. Although he took a shower and changed his clothes this morning and no longer smelled of smoke and alcohol, the bloodshot eyes were still visible.
Li Xiuyuan's heart skipped a beat when he heard Su Ziying's question. He hadn't slept well, had he? He had been thinking about her all night. How could he possibly sleep well?
