Chang Zaixin strode towards Li Lin, and the provincial and municipal officials sitting in the front row stood up to greet him. He just nodded slightly to them and walked straight to Li Lin.
Li Lan smiled as he came over and said first, "Minister Chang, there is still some time before the opening ceremony. Why are you here so early?"
Chang Zaixin smiled and said, "Hey, I am very excited when I think of so many outstanding young people from all over the province gathered here. Naturally, I can't sit still in the office. I want to come to the scene in advance to have a look and chat with our outstanding young people."
Li Lin took the initiative to extend his right hand and greeted politely, "Hello, Minister Chang..."
Chang Zaixin gently shook Li Lin's hand, patted his shoulder three times, and said with a smile, "Xiao Lin is dressed very smartly today, and has the style of an outstanding young man, haha..."
oh?
Li Lin was a little surprised. He felt that Chang Zai had something else to say, as if he was hinting at something.
He looked at Li Lan with an inquiring look, trying to see some clues from her eyes.
Li Lan just smiled at him, his eyes full of joy and expectation.
The selection results for the top ten outstanding young people must have come out, but they were not disclosed in advance. I’m afraid that only Minister Chang and other provincial leaders know the results now.
Chang Zaixin's sudden appearance attracted the attention of everyone present.
Niu Qing and Bai Xiaohua were so surprised when they saw Minister Chang and Minister Li chatting with Li Lin alone that their mouths were wide open.
They had heard that Li Lin's sister was Minister Li Lan, but they did not expect that Li Lin was so familiar with Minister Chang.
What is even more surprising is that, in such an occasion, Minister Chang actually took the initiative to talk to Li Lin without any hesitation, which shows how close the relationship between the two is.
Hiss~I was careless!
Niu Qing and Bai Xiaohua were regretting it at the moment. They really shouldn't have played tricks on Li Lin. With such strong connections, he should be on the list this time. Even if he doesn't make the list, his position in the future will definitely be much higher than theirs...
The two looked at each other in silence, their eyes full of surprise and shame...
Li Lan quietly reminded Chang Zaixin, "Minister, there are too many people in front of us, and everyone is watching."
Chang Zaixin looked back belatedly and found that almost all the attention in the room was focused on the three of them. It was indeed inappropriate to chat with Li Lin alone, as it would make people gossip. So he smiled and waved at Li Lin and Li Lan, saying, "Okay, I'll just walk around and chat with the other young people..."
Li Lan and Li Lin watched him leave.
When Chang Zaixin passed by Niu Qing and Bai Xiaohua, the two excitedly extended their hands to greet Chang Zaixin. Out of politeness, Chang Zaixin symbolically shook hands with them and asked them, "Are you two also cadres from Pingyang?"
Niu Qing and Bai Xiaohua were so excited to be able to talk to the provincial party committee's organization minister that they stood restlessly, their lips trembling as they said, "Yes, yes, we are both cadres from Pingyang, and we are colleagues of Director Li Lin."
"Oh?" Chang Zaixin nodded with a smile, glanced at Li Lin, and said to the two, "Well, being recommended by the city means you are very good. You are all very young. If you work hard, you will have a bright future. Hehehe..."
After saying that, without waiting for Niu Qing and Bai Xiaohua to say anything else, he walked straight to the next table.
Even this brief, perfunctory contact still made Niu Qing and Bai Xiaohua extremely happy... There are probably only a few opportunities to shake hands with provincial and ministerial leaders in a lifetime, and the excitement in their hearts could not be calmed for a long time.
Li Lan and Li Lin walked side by side to a place with few people. Li Lan reached out to straighten Li Lin's collar and said to him with a smile, "I always see you wearing a suit of this color. Tomorrow, I will go with you to buy two other styles of clothes."
Li Lin smiled and said, "Men's clothes only come in a few styles, and they're all pretty much the same no matter how many times you change them. I don't like flashy colors, so I usually buy dark colors like this."
Turning his head to glance at Chang Zaixin who was still shaking hands and greeting a group of young cadres, Li Lin asked in confusion, "Sister, why did Minister Chang come so early by himself? Shouldn't he be here with Secretary Wang?"
Hearing this, Li Lan smiled and said, "He has his own little thoughts. You young cadres are very talented and will all hold important positions in the future, or even become important officials in charge of a region... Don't leaders like to interact with promising young people? Minister Chang is the same."
I see.
Li Lin suddenly realized.
At this time, Li Lan whispered to Li Lin, "Xiao Lin, I just heard from Minister Chang that you are on the list this time. Secretary Wang will personally present the award to you. You should be mentally prepared and it's best to prepare a few words of thanks."
"Really? Okay sister, I will prepare in advance and will not embarrass myself on the stage." Li Lin smiled calmly, without any sign of nervousness.
"I'm not worried that you'll embarrass yourself. I tell you in advance so that you can do better." Li Lan said with a smile.
In Li Lan's mind, Li Lin was born with the aura of being in control of everything. She was not worried at all that Li Lin would be stage fright, nor was she worried that he would be like the two young cadres in Pingyang, who became incoherent when they saw the big boss.
Even Secretary Wang Jin told Li Lan in person that Li Lin was a man of steadiness that did not match his age. He was truly extraordinary!
Li Lin wanted to take this opportunity to introduce Xu Wen to Li Lan, so he said to her, "Sister, let me introduce someone to you."
Li Lan looked at him with interest and asked with a smile, "Your colleague?"
Li Lin smiled embarrassedly and said, "No..."
Li Lan understood immediately. Although he felt a little disappointed, he still smiled and said, "I've never seen you so shy before. Do you want to introduce your girlfriend to me?"
