Chapter 144 The smile on my face is almost gone
The dinner was held in a hall of Xiangmi Lake Resort. There were people guarding outside and everyone had to give an invitation when entering.
Su Wan and his friends' car was right behind Zhao Qingci's car, and they all entered the hall together. As the temperature in Guangdong Province had risen a bit, the air conditioner inside was on a constant temperature setting, which was just right for wearing a skirt.
Looking at the luxuriously rotating crystal chandeliers, the foreign guests toasting each other, and the many men and women in suits, Su Wan felt as if she had returned to the afterlife.
Before she could think about it, France had already handed her a glass of wine.
Zhao Qian, standing by, was also explaining, "This is sparkling wine. It's not too strong and won't make you drunk. If anyone doesn't know what to do, just hold the wine. That way, you won't have anywhere to put your money when you socialize. There's a self-service pastry and steak over there. Try to eat something bland..."
He explained very seriously, and although Su Wan already knew everything, she did not interrupt.
After Zhao Qian finished speaking, she nodded and said, "I understand, Brother Zhao, thank you!"
"I have to go somewhere else soon. I'll come see you later."
"OK."
After Zhao Qian finished speaking, he left.
Zhao Qingci and Harman were called away as soon as they came in. Su Wan knew that she couldn't follow them, so she went to the restaurant to find something to eat.
The cakes on the table were all very delicate, and the Western-style cakes were sweet. Su Wan hadn't eaten cakes for a long time, so she quickly took a small plate and got a few cakes, then sat on the sofa nearby to eat.
I was enjoying my meal when suddenly another person appeared next to me.
Su Wan raised her head and met Xu Ruichen's gaze in surprise. She quickly put down her fork and asked, "Brother Xu, why are you here?"
"I just saw you over there and wanted to come over and say hello."
Xu Ruichen looked at the little piece of cake still on the corner of her lips and couldn't help but smile. He pointed to the corner of his own mouth and said, "There's cake on the corner of your mouth."
"oh."
Su Wan wiped the corner of her mouth without any embarrassment, then smiled at Xu Ruichen again, "I didn't eat anything when I came here, but I didn't expect there would be such delicious little cakes here. I couldn't help but eat them."
Xu Ruichen didn't tease her, but said seriously, "The dim sum chefs here are all invited from abroad. They are all foreign stuff. The taste is really good. Girls will like it. If you like it, eat more. There is no limit here."
He spoke in a relaxed tone, and Su Wan picked up the plate again and started eating again.
While eating the cake, he said, "I went to Heilongjiang Province a few days ago."
"To find your lover?"
"Well, I came back without seeing him, but it won't be long before he graduates."
Su Wan was in a very good mood thinking that Chen Yuan would be back in April.
Xu Ruichen hesitated for a moment before speaking, "It seems the Army Academy will be delaying graduation. They've fallen behind on a lot of coursework, and they won't be able to graduate until they've finished everything."
"We've already waited so long, there's no need to rush."
When Su Wan said this, the smile on her cheeks almost disappeared.
"Don't think too much, nothing will happen."
Xu Ruichen's words of comfort would be worse than nothing.
The small cake in his hand suddenly became less sweet. Su Wan felt lazy and seemed to have no strength left.
Someone suddenly walked towards them. Su Wan took a look and saw that it was the mayor's secretary Xiao Wang.
Xiao Wang looked at Su Wan beside Xu Ruichen, opened his mouth, and then asked, "Does Miss Su know Director Xu?"
"We are friends."
Xu Ruichen spoke first, and Xiao Wang uttered an "oh" before finally speaking, "Director Xu, the leader wants you to come over."
"I'll be right there."
Standing up and looking at Su Wan, Xu Ruichen asked, "Do you want to meet the mayor?"
Su Wan twitched the corners of her lips. She was about to say that she had already met him, but Xu Ruichen said, "The mayor of Pengcheng Special Zone and I have some friendship. If you have any problems in the future, as long as it's not excessive, he will help you for my sake."
Su Wan, who originally had no intention of meeting him, stood up immediately after hearing this.
"I've actually met the mayor once, but we're not close. I really should go meet him."
What does it matter if you are thick-skinned? As long as you have money, she doesn’t think it matters how thick your skin is.
Su Wan and Xu Ruichen entered a room together.
Mayor Li Jingye was the only one in the room.
He nodded to Xu Ruichen, "Ruichen is here."
"Uncle Li."
Xu Ruichen called out, then pulled Su Wan out and introduced her, "Uncle Li, this is Su Wan, the comrade who saved Cheng Yi before."
"Comrade Su Wan, we've met before."
After all, Li Jingye had seen big scenes and would not have any big emotional ups and downs. After he finished speaking, he motioned for the two of them to sit down.
After sitting down, Li Jingye asked, "How are you thinking about the matter I asked you to consider before?"
"I don't think there's any problem here, but this matter still needs approval from above. If there's no problem, I'll let you know as soon as possible."
"Well, now that foreign investment is pouring in, our Pengcheng Special Economic Zone also needs some talent."
Su Wan understood every word the two said.
But she didn't know what they were talking about.
By the time they finished their discussion, Su Wan was almost dozing off.
Li Jingye stood up and spoke to Xu Ruichen, "You are becoming more and more outstanding now. It is true that the younger generation pushes the older generation forward. Uncle Li feels the pressure."
"Uncle Li, what are you talking about? Father said earlier that you are the best among them. I still need to learn more from you."
"Comrade Su Wan..."
"She's just a very good friend. She's a nice person. I hope Uncle Li can take care of her."
Xu Ruichen was afraid of being misunderstood, so he explained immediately.
Li Jingye also nodded, "Comrade Su Wan is quite good."
"She's a really nice person."
After Xu Ruichen said this, he looked at Su Wan with a little more tenderness.
Li Jingye turned to look at the drowsy Su Wan and said in a gentle tone, "Comrade Su Wan, if you need any help in the future, you can come to me."
This time the contact information given was no longer Xiao Wang's, but his own.
Su Wan, who was about to fall asleep, woke up instantly after hearing this.
She took the contact information and thanked me with a smile.
After the two left, Li Jingye instructed his secretary, "Xiao Wang, please take good care of the building materials store opened by Comrade Su Wan and let them take care of it."
Li Jingye had once received great kindness from the old man of the Xu family, so he would naturally pay more attention to the people he wanted to help.
Any more is naturally impossible.
Xiao Wang was very surprised. This Miss Su was very powerful!
He just helped the foreign guest's mother some time ago, and then saved the young master of the Xu family. His luck is really good.
