“Secretary Lu, you’re right. We absolutely cannot allow any people to ruin this great situation.” Li Xiuyuan raised his glass, looking at Lu Zhenhai with a firm gaze.
Lu Zhenhai raised his glass and clinked it against Li Xiuyuan's, then drank it all in one gulp.
"Secretary Lu, you know the relationship between Zhitao and me. We're just the two of us, coming from the county government office to the central town." After a couple of drinks, Li Xiuyuan was ready to get straight to the point.
First, he built connections. Here, Li Xiuyuan cleverly linked himself with Wang Zhitao, since Wang Zhitao was Lu Zhenhai's son-in-law.
"My brother and I came here with a heavy responsibility. Our main goal is to successfully implement the new rural construction project in Meilin Village. But as you can see, it's very difficult. We're both very young, and everyone is taking advantage of us. I know many people say we're just greenhorns, that we're unreliable. Zhitao came here first last year, so he should understand this better..."
As Li Xiuyuan spoke, Wang Zhitao immediately chimed in. He truly understood the situation; last year, he was almost bullied to death by these people. Not to mention their superiors, even their subordinates were disrespectful.
"Yes, Uncle, not to mention other departments, even people in my own department don't respect me. They think I'm too young. It goes without saying that other departments are the same. I do all the dirty and hard work. I'm called the director, but I'm not as good as a regular staff member. It was only after Brother Li came that my situation improved."
Listening to his future son-in-law's complaints, Lu Zhenhai had a headache. This son-in-law usually seemed clever, but compared to Li Xiuyuan, it was clear why he was charging into battle at this time.
Did you really believe Li Xiuyuan's words? I know others bully you, but since Li Xiuyuan came to the central town, has anyone ever bullied him? At the first town party committee meeting, Li Xiuyuan confronted Hou Peng head-on.
The last town party committee meeting made Zhang Xingguo feel extremely embarrassed.
Li Xiuyuan is young, but he has never been bullied.
Can you two be compared?
However, Wang Zhitao is her future son-in-law, and especially since they are only engaged and not yet married, she is in a difficult position to speak to him, as she is neither too soft nor too hard.
After Wang Zhitao finished speaking, Lu Zhenhai knew it was his turn to speak. He finally understood why Li Xiuyuan had said he was a junior as soon as he entered the room. He was addressed as an elder, but now he was saying he was a young man and being bullied.
Especially his own foolish son-in-law, who even chimed in.
This is a situation where they're forced into a position where they have no choice but to agree.
Although he had originally intended to support Li Xiuyuan by having dinner with him tonight, he still thought that if he could be a little more conservative, he should. He supported Li Xiuyuan, but he always wanted to leave himself some room for maneuver.
Limited support and unreserved support are two completely different things.
But Li Xiuyuan is now showing weakness, repeatedly saying that he is a junior and being bullied, and his foolish son-in-law is even chiming in. Lu Zhenhai feels a headache coming on, but he still needs to make a statement.
