Chu Guoan is worthy of being a big shot at the vice-provincial level. When his scars were exposed, he just smiled indifferently. He was angry in his heart, but there was no trace of anger on his face.
The people at the table watched Li Lin and Chu Guoan talking calmly, and they couldn't help but respect Li Lin... A deputy director level difference to a deputy provincial level is not a little bit... From the look of Li Lin, it seems that he doesn't take Vice Governor Chu seriously at all! What kind of courage is this?
Everyone felt inferior to him.
Instead of venting his anger for Chu Yao, he was speechless by Li Lin.
How could Chu Guoan be willing to swallow this loss?
He smiled and stood up calmly, holding up a small glass of wine, and said to Li Lin, "Comrade Li Lin, what I said just now was not targeted at you, it was completely unintentional. I toast you a glass to express my apology, hehe... Come on, let's have a drink?"
At this time, Chu Guoan winked at the subordinate he brought with him. When the subordinate saw Chu Guoan's gesture, he understood it immediately.
He walked to Li Lin with a smile, picked up a bottle of wine, filled a goblet, held it up and handed it to Li Lin, saying, "Comrade Li Lin, Vice Governor Chu is toasting with you, you can't use a small cup, right? Drinking from this big cup is a sign of respect for the leader. If you have any difficulties at work in the future, you can come to Vice Governor Chu for help!"
This person urged Li Lin to drink with a smile on his face, but his tone was soft yet firm, and he seemed to be forcing Li Lin to drink this large glass of wine.
Everyone at the table looked at the man who was urging them to drink in surprise, thinking that this was obviously meant to embarrass Li Lin!
Knowing clearly that Li Lin should not drink too much at this occasion tonight, he still forced Li Lin to drink this large glass of wine. If he got drunk and made a fool of himself in front of the leaders, how would Li Lin survive in the future?
Although the words of urging people to drink were not said by Chu Guoan himself, it was obviously what he meant...Who would dare not give face to the vice governor's toast?
Not to mention a big cup, even if it's a whole bottle, haha, even if I get drunk on the spot, I dare not not drink it!
If he doesn't drink it, it would be like refusing a toast and drinking a penalty. Vice Governor Chu will definitely remember Li Lin. If Li Lin falls into the hands of Vice Governor Chu in the future, his end will be miserable!
It's not right to drink, and it's not right not to drink...
Everyone felt embarrassed for Li Lin.
However, when they saw that Li Lin still looked as if nothing had happened, they were surprised.
Anyone else would be extremely panicked at this moment, but why does Li Lin not seem nervous at all?
Everyone was very surprised.
Li Lin stood up calmly. He didn't look at the person who was urging him to drink, but looked straight at Chu Guoan.
He knew that Chu Guoan was Chu Yao's father. Although he didn't know where he had offended him, it seemed that Chu Guoan was determined to embarrass him.
Since they are destined to be enemies, there is no way to avoid it. There is no point in drinking this glass of wine. In the end, all he gets in return is the ridicule of Chu Guoan, a smug villain.
After figuring this out, Li Lin picked up his small cup and said to Chu Guoan with a smile, "Vice Governor Chu, you are too polite. It is inconvenient to drink too much today. You don't have to drink. I will drink a small cup to show my respect to you."
This...is this a rejection of Vice Governor Chu?
Everyone was stunned.
Seeing that Li Lin clearly didn't give him face, Chu Guoan was so angry that his face turned blue, but he couldn't get angry.
The man standing next to Li Lin and urging him to drink was holding the big cup and waiting for Li Lin to take it, but when he saw that Li Lin didn't take it at all, he suddenly felt that he was looked down upon by a department-level cadre, and his eyes unconsciously became vicious when he looked at Li Lin, but in this situation, he could do nothing about Li Lin.
Li Lin picked up a small glass of wine and drank it calmly, which gave Chu Guoan a way out.
But as to whether Chu Guoan was willing to back down from this path, that was not something Li Lin could worry about.
Li Lin turned the cup upside down to signal to Chu Guoan that he had finished drinking it without leaving a drop. "I, Li Lin, have given you face as Vice Governor Chu. If you continue to be aggressive, you will only have yourself to blame for the embarrassment you suffer!"
Li Lin's performance was flawless. Even if Chu Guoan wanted to make trouble, he could only sigh in despair...
He sneered in his heart, raised his head and drank the glass of wine in his hand, then waved to his men.
The subordinate who was holding a large glass of wine and was about to persuade Li Lin to drink, put the full glass of wine back to its place reluctantly and retreated reluctantly.
Chu Guoan looked at Li Lin with an unnatural smile on his face and said, "What level are you now? How will the city place you next? Do you want me to say hello to your Municipal Party Committee Organization Department and arrange a good department for you? After all, you are an outstanding young man in Hanjiang. The city must make use of you, right? Hehehe..."
When Chu Guoan said this, there was always a sinister smile on his face, which gave people goose bumps.
He didn't mean to say hello to Li Lin out of kindness. He was clearly warning Li Lin, "What level are you? I'm offering you a drink, and you dare not give me face? Okay, I just need to say hello to your Pingyang Municipal Party Committee Organization Department, and you, Li Lin, will never be promoted!"
Humph, what's wrong with being an outstanding young man? I am a provincial and ministerial level leader, and I can decide your life or death with just one word, just wait!
Everyone around the table also heard the threat in Chu Guoan's words and couldn't help but break into a cold sweat for Li Lin.
Especially Niu Qing and Bai Xiaohua, who are also cadres of Pingyang City. They both had stiff smiles on their faces. They kept smiling at Li Lin and glanced at him from time to time, as if persuading him - Brother, just give in. He is the vice governor, we can't afford to offend him!
Li Lin smiled at the two of them calmly. Although he understood their good intentions, he ignored them and drank his tea and picked up his dishes...
