Chapter 61: Equally matched, rivals of the time (2/2)



"Xiuyuan, how was your talk with Wu Yiyi last night? Is she willing to help you find a solution?" Wang Zhitao asked in a low voice while eating.

"I didn't ask her for help." Li Xiuyuan shook his head.

"You..." Wang Zhitao sighed.

In the afternoon, Li Xiuyuan was a little absent-minded. When it was almost 12 o'clock, Li Xiuyuan packed up a few documents and said to Wang Zhitao, "Brother Wang, I'm going to go out and get some signatures from other units. I'll be gone for a while."

"At this time, you..." Wang Zhitao was stunned for a moment before realizing that Li Xiuyuan was going to leave early.

"You go ahead, if the leader asks, I'll tell you what I'm saying."

Li Xiuyuan nodded, packed up his things and went out, then headed straight for the bus station, just in time to catch the last bus to the provincial capital, Zhongbei City, at 8 o'clock.

Only after buying the ticket and getting on the bus did Li Xiuyuan breathe a sigh of relief.

The distance from Huangyuan County to the provincial capital, Taipei City, is not very far. In fact, it is only about one hundred or two hundred kilometers. How long it takes to get there depends mainly on how fast the driver drives.

If the driver drives faster, it may take one hour and forty minutes to get there. If he drives slower, it may take two hours.

The management regulations of this bus station are not as strict as those in later generations. In later generations, buses are equipped with GPS positioning, and there are regulations on the driving speed of passenger buses on highways. Once speeding, the dispatch center will issue a timely warning.

But now there is no such thing, it all depends on the driver's mood.

Apparently the driver was in a good mood that day and drove neither fast nor slow. At 6:40, the car arrived at the provincial bus station. Li Xiuyuan came out of the station and took a taxi directly to the address Kang Yuxuan sent him.

After finding a place, Li Xiuyuan got out of the taxi and took a look. The hotel's front seemed to be well decorated. Li Xiuyuan walked into the hotel and called Kang Yuxuan.

Kang Yuxuan came out of the private room quickly.

"Oh, Xiuyuan, old classmate, long time no see, long time no see." Kang Yuxuan's face was full of smiles.

"Old squad leader, it's been a long time since we last met. I miss you so much. Look, you're still so handsome and worthy of being the school hunk of our class." Li Xiuyuan said.

"Haha, no, no, we are evenly matched and rivals." Tang Yuxuan joked.

The two of them exchanged pleasantries and sat down in the private room. It was called a private room, but in fact it was just a semi-enclosed private room.

"What is my old classmate doing now?" Kang Yuxuan asked with a smile while making tea for Li Xiuyuan.

This is what people who enter society will ask first: what job do they do now? If they pay more attention to the friendship between classmates, generally speaking, the first question they will ask is, "What brings you to Zhongbei?"

"I work in our county government office." Li Xiuyuan handed Kang Yuxuan a cigarette and said.

Kang Yuxuan's eyes were a little surprised. He glanced at Li Xiuyuan and his smile grew even wider. "You're doing well. You're working in the county government office now. It has two offices and one committee. This is the most powerful department in the county. When you become a leader one day, don't forget us old classmates!"

"Hey, old squad leader, you are making fun of me. I just want to have enough food and clothing and live a stable life." Li Xiuyuan said modestly.

"By the way, when are you and your girlfriend from the next class getting married? When you get married, don't forget to inform us old classmates. I'll organize some time and all our classmates from the provincial capital will come over to celebrate with you." Kang Yuxuan asked with a smile.

Li Xiuyuan's face turned bitter when he heard this. He knew this would be the question. He sighed helplessly and said, "We broke up."

"Broken up? What happened? You didn't mean what others said, the first sword to land?" Kang Yuxuan seemed to be joking, but asked seriously.
