Shocked, but only for a moment. In Li Lan's mind, even the children of a ministerial-level official were no more than this.
Once upon a time, the leader made a brief comment on Xu Yongchang, saying that this person was loyal, courageous and could be of great use...
If his daughter marries Li Lin, she would be marrying above her station!
But it’s okay, it’s much better than Li Lin just finding an ordinary girl.
Although Li Lan felt disappointed, she also felt a sense of relief. If the leader asked about Li Lin's private life, she would not be speechless.
Chang Zaixin looked at Li Lan's changing expression and was very confused. He asked her, "Why? You look very unhappy. Don't you think highly of them?"
Li Lan smiled and shook her head, saying something that made Chang Zaixin puzzled. She said, "I'm not unhappy. Xu Wen's family background is pretty good. However, the future depends on Xiaolin's own choice. Let nature take its course."
Is it okay to call a family of a ministerial level official?
Chang Zaixin showed a surprised expression on his face. He didn't know what Li Lan was thinking... Was he overwhelmed by the momentary joy? Xu Wen had such a good family background, but it actually depended on whether Li Lin was willing?
Are our expectations of Li Lin too high?
Chang Zaixin felt confused, but for Li Lan's sake, he did not refute on the spot. He just laughed and stopped talking.
Chu Yao is too embarrassed to wait here for dinner any longer...
Chu Guoan saw that his daughter was hurt by love, so he put his arm around her shoulders and sent her out of the hotel. It was not until Chu Yao got into the car that Chu Guoan could not help asking, "Yaoyao, tell me, who is it because of? Was it that kid named Li Lin who bullied you?"
Hearing Li Lin's name, Chu Yao couldn't help crying again. Although she said "no" and "it's not because of him..."
But no one knows a daughter better than her father, and Chu Guoan understood everything at once.
He nodded silently, with a sharp look in his eyes, thinking, "Well, you, a stinky boy who came out of nowhere, dare to look down on my daughter? Well, well, looking down on my daughter is looking down on me, Chu Guoan. You don't even give face to a vice-provincial level official like me. I want to see how powerful your background is!"
"Xiao Wang! Send Yaoyao home safely!"
"yes!"
Close the car door.
The black car started steadily and gradually disappeared at the end of the road.
Chu Guoan stood with his hands behind his back, watching quietly as the special car Chu Yao was riding in disappeared from his sight.
suddenly!
He narrowed his eyes, and a fierce light flashed in his small eyes.
"Damn it, is it that great to be named an outstanding youth?"
"In my eyes, you are only slightly stronger than an ant!"
"Bullying my daughter? I'll make you pay the price!"
"Humph, so what about Li Lan? No one can stop me today!"
Chu Guoan walked back to the venue angrily.
Standing at the door, he saw Li Lin from afar. Without any hesitation, he stood up and walked over.
His idea was very simple, which was to embarrass Li Lin in person and vent Chu Yao's anger!
Of course, he is the vice governor, so he must not lose his manners in anything he does. No matter how difficult it is for him, he must not leave room for others to find fault with him.
Although there were drinks at the banquet, everyone just tasted them briefly and did not drink as much as they usually do.
After all, all the main leaders of the province were present. If anyone got drunk and made a fool of himself, his career would be over.
After Li Lin and Xu Wen separated, they returned to their respective seats. When Niu Qing and Bai Xiaohua saw Li Lin coming back, they quickly raised their wine glasses to toast Li Lin.
"Director Li, although I can't drink too much tonight, I still want to toast you. Let's clink glasses, shall we?"
"Yes, Director Li, it's okay to drink less. I will punish myself with three cups and I will give you a small cup, hehe."
The two men toasted with extreme sincerity.
As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person. Li Lin smiled and nodded, raised his small cup to clink glasses with the two of them, and drank it all in one gulp.
At this moment, Chu Guoan suddenly appeared in front of Li Lin's table. Seeing Li Lin drink a glass of wine, he clapped his hands and said with a smile, "What a good alcohol tolerance! You young cadres in Pingyang are really good. You drank before everyone else even started eating. You are so refreshing, open-minded, and courageous! Hahaha..."
Chu Guoan spoke in a casual tone and laughed loudly. For a moment, it was difficult to tell what he was trying to express between the lines. Was he trying to say that Li Lin and the others had cheerful personalities, or did he want to say that they didn't know the rules?
Li Lin prefers the latter.
Because he clearly saw a sinister smile on Chu Guoan's face...
When the vice governor arrived, everyone at the table stood up and greeted Chu Guoan politely with a smile.
Chu Guoan still waved his hand to the people at the table and asked them to sit down. He smiled and said, "You're welcome. You are all good young people of Hanjiang and the pillars of the future. I am also very happy to have a drink and chat with you. Come on, sit down."
After saying that, Chu Guoan deliberately glanced at Li Lin, and the smile on his face instantly turned into a sinister one, catching people off guard... All this happened in an instant, and it was difficult for others to notice the change in Chu Guoan's expression, but Li Lin noticed it. At this moment, he already knew in his heart that Chu Guoan had come with bad intentions!
Li Lin was already mentally prepared. He must not retreat or show cowardice in front of so many people. Otherwise, no one would respect him after he lost face.
Thinking of this, Li Lin smiled calmly, thinking, if the enemy comes, we will fight him; if the water comes, we will block it with earth. I don't believe that you, Chu Guoan, dare to do anything excessive in front of so many provincial leaders!
