Chu Guoan left unwillingly.
He is the vice governor, so what? How dare he disobey the governor and the secretary?
Before leaving, he turned around and glared at Li Lin fiercely when no one was paying attention.
It's as if to say, you're lucky, there's a long way to go, just wait!
Li Lin found Chu Guoan's indignant look funny and responded with a cold look.
Can you use your high rank to overpower others?
Li Lin didn't buy his tricks at all!
Seeing Chu Guoan leave, Zhao Yuehui smiled and got to the point.
He took the wine glass handed to him by his subordinate, filled it up, and said to the people at the table, "You are all good young people and good comrades of Hanjiang. Come on, let's have a drink together. Don't be proud if you are selected, and keep working hard if you are not selected. I look forward to your future performance. Cheers!"
Everyone raised their glasses at the same time, deeply moved by Zhao Yuehui's encouragement.
With a firm expression, they said at the same time, "Thank you Governor Zhao for your encouragement..." and then raised their heads to drink the wine in their glasses.
Zhao Yuehui did not pour wine for Li Lin alone in order to avoid suspicion and treat everyone equally, for fear that some comrade would see his preference for Li Lin.
But before he left, he quietly gave Li Lin a nod and a smile, as if to say, don't be afraid if anything happens, I, Zhao Yuehui, will support you!
Li Lin responded to Zhao Yuehui with a polite smile. To be honest, he was still deeply touched.
If Zhao Yuehui hadn't arrived in time, Chu Guoan, the fat guy, might have made things difficult for Li Lin...
After Xu Wen returned to her seat, she found that Chu Yao had left at some point.
Even if you were leaving, you should have said hello, right? What happened? Why are you leaving so suddenly?
She pursed her lips, thought for a moment, and finally decided to call her to say hello.
Beep beep~
The phone rang many times, but no one answered.
The more this happened, the more uneasy Xu Wen felt...
After a while, Chu Yao called back.
Xu Wen quickly answered the call. The two of them were silent for a moment, and then Chu Yao's low voice came first.
"Wenwen, I just want to ask you one question. Why didn't you tell me that you were with Li Lin? When did you two get together? Wenwen, do you consider me a friend? Do you know that Li Lin and I..."
She didn't say the last sentence. She wondered what her identity was. She was the daughter of the vice governor! If others knew that she had dated a farmer's son, how would people in the circle look at her? She didn't want to embarrass this person, and she didn't want others to talk about her behind her back. So she hesitated for two seconds and finally didn't reveal her past relationship with Li Lin.
Xu Wen was very puzzled. Why did Chu Yao always care so much about her relationship with Li Lin? Especially since she said half of the words, was there any secret between her and Li Lin?
Xu Wen's heart tightened...
Biting her lip, she whispered to Chu Yao, "Yaoyao, I didn't intend to hide it from you, but I felt that you were prejudiced against Li Lin, so I wanted to find a suitable opportunity to tell you... You are my only friend in Hanjiang, how could I lie to you? Also, what did you just say about you and Li Lin? Didn't you say you didn't know Li Lin?"
Xu Wen was looking forward to Chu Yao's answer, feeling nervous. She was really afraid to hear Chu Yao say that she had some kind of relationship with Li Lin...
But she quickly adjusted her mindset. Even if there was something going on between Chu Yao and Li Lin, it was all in the past. She would not feel the slightest bit of dissatisfaction towards Li Lin because of it. After all, who doesn’t have a past? Who didn’t have a romance that they thought was sensational when they were young?
silence.
Chu Yao was silent for a long time before she sighed, "Li Lin and I... are just ordinary college classmates. Because of this, I know him a little bit. He is of humble status and is not worthy of you. I don't want you to be together. In fact, this is all for your own good. Also, I heard from my dad that Li Lin is actually Li Lan's gigolo. If you don't believe me, you can find out by asking around. Many people in the government know about it... Otherwise, how could he have won the honor of Provincial Outstanding Youth? Wenwen, I'm saying this for your own good..."
You can slander my boyfriend unscrupulously under the guise of being nice to me?
Shameless!
Xu Wen was furious. She raised her eyebrows and asked, "Chu Yao, what nonsense are you talking about? Who is Li Lan's gigolo? I don't believe it! Li Lin would never lie to me!
"Chu Yao, how can you say such things? You are the child of a ministerial-level leader. What about your upbringing? What about your quality? How can you spread rumors and say bad things about others behind their backs? You disappoint me so much!"
"Wenwen I..."
Chu Yao was speechless for a moment, her face flushed with shame. Yes, why did she say bad things about Li Lin? What was she thinking?
Under normal circumstances, such a thing as talking bad about others behind their backs would never happen to her.
But today, she acted like a villain. She couldn't stand the fact that her former lover was getting together with her best friend. She was both tangled and crazy... In order to make Xu Wen leave Li Lin, she acted like the villain she hated...
On second thought, even if she was a villain, she could not sit idly by and watch Li Lin and Xu Wen get together. The sweeter they were, the more upset, sad, and jealous Chu Yao felt...
She made up her mind and said decisively, "Wenwen, I know you don't believe me, but I still want to say that Li Lin is not worthy of you. He is just Li Lan's gigolo... Don't deceive yourself. You know that with his identity and status, he would never have come to this point without Li Lan's help, but have you ever thought about why Li Lan would give her all to help him? If there was no private relationship between them, would she protect Li Lin so much? Also, I heard that Li Lin often goes in and out of Li Lan's house and even stays overnight at her house... Think about it yourself."
"Chu Yao, I warn you, if you continue to slander Li Lin like this, we will break up!"
"Wenwen, please believe me, I really do this for your own good..."
beep!
Xu Wen decisively hung up the phone.
She didn't want to hear Chu Yao's voice again. She felt sick when she thought of Chu Yao's hypocritical expression.
Why, why did she say bad things about Li Lin? What happened between them that made Chu Yao hate Li Lin so much?
She didn't dare to think too deeply. She shook her head desperately, trying to get rid of all the rumors about Li Lin that Chu Yao had instilled in her...
But the more I tried to suppress it, the more the scene of Li Lin and Li Lan being intimate appeared in my mind...
She stood up and looked angrily at Li Lan who was sitting in the front row. She wanted to ask Li Lan...if this really happened.
But she quickly rejected this idea. It would be ridiculous to ask Li Lan such a question in front of so many provincial leaders...
If Li Lan and Li Lin are innocent, once this matter is brought to light, how will they live their lives in the future?
Isn't Li Lin going to annoy himself to death?
Taking a deep breath, Xu Wen tried to calm herself down. She looked at Li Lin in the distance again. His profile was so clear... Tomorrow, she would go to Li Lan's house for dinner and find a chance to confirm this doubt...
