When everyone left, Wei Minmin was still standing at the door blankly, seemingly hesitating whether to say hello to Li Lin.
After all, Li Lin had helped her a lot. If it weren't for Li Lin, she would probably be completely destroyed by cyberbullying and her work would have been seriously affected.
Knowing that Li Lin has won the honorary title of "Outstanding Youth", it would be very inhumane if I didn't express congratulations in person.
Just as she was twisting her fingers in hesitation, a tall figure quietly enveloped her entire body...
Wei Minmin's heart tightened and she looked up in surprise, meeting Li Lin's eyes as he was looking down at her.
"Team Leader Wei, what are you doing standing here?" Li Lin asked in a gentle voice with a smile in his eyes.
The two were very close, and Wei Minmin seemed to be able to feel the masculinity and aggressive aura emanating from Li Lin...
So nervous...
"Ah? Me?" Wei Minmin looked up at Li Lin blankly, biting her lips lightly, and was speechless for a moment.
Li Lin noticed her nervousness and couldn't help wondering if he was too cold to Wei Minmin, so that she wouldn't even talk in front of him.
There's nothing I can do about it. She always pretends to be aloof and ignores everyone...
"Uh~ I just came over to congratulate you... Congratulations on winning the title of Outstanding Youth, congratulations..." Wei Minmin forced a smile, and because she was too nervous, the corners of her eyes kept trembling.
This slight detail revealed her inner uneasiness and anxiety. She was afraid that Li Lin would not appreciate it and treat her coldly.
Li Lin smiled gently, "Thank you for your encouragement. Mayor Qian is organizing a dinner party tonight. Let's go together. I wonder if you can drink alcohol normally? Why don't we have a couple of drinks together tonight?"
drink wine?
Li Lin actually...invited me to drink?
Wei Minmin blinked, feeling a sense of disbelief. She asked weakly, "Team Leader Li, are you saying you want to drink with me tonight?"
Li Lin nodded calmly and said, "Yeah, you don't know how to drink? That doesn't matter, as long as you are there."
"Yes, yes, yes..." Wei Minmin said quickly, "I can usually drink a little, so let's make this clear. I won't go home until I'm drunk tonight."
Don’t go home until you are drunk?
Li Lin was stunned, wondering what this woman was thinking. If she wanted to stay drunk, she should consider the occasion. Was she going to embarrass herself by getting drunk at a banquet with hundreds of people?
"Okay, I'm leaving now. See you tonight."
Without waiting for Li Lin to speak, Wei Minmin walked away, twisting her slender waist and looking back every few steps, her steps so brisk that they seemed to float...
Li Lin stared at Wei Minmin's departing back for two seconds, then quickly turned around and went into the house.
Today this woman is wearing a pair of white trousers, tight and contoured... like a ripe peach.
He is a normal man. Who can tolerate a woman's plump... constantly swaying in front of him?
The atmosphere in the evening was intense.
There are more than a dozen large round tables in the banquet hall of the city hotel.
Qian Lingyun and a group of leaders from the municipal government team walked in one after another in great style.
The hundreds of cadres at the scene all stood up and saluted.
Unlike the provincial government's award ceremony which is quite formal, this dinner does not involve so much red tape.
Those responsible for maintaining order and presiding over the opening were Yuan Qingjiang and several young comrades from the Municipal Government Office.
Tonight is a grand event for the city government.
Walking through the crowd, Qian Lingyun was like a victorious general, enjoying the admiring gazes of everyone.
His two deputies, Yang Wanquan and Zhang Yi, followed behind him with bright smiles on their faces, waving to everyone present.
Everyone in the field stood in their positions, watching the city leaders passing by them, and they were extremely excited. Although they all worked in the same building upstairs in the city government, how many times could they meet the city leaders in a year? Even if they did, it was only once, when they met downstairs.
As ordinary cadres with low positions, they had no chance to stand in front of the city leaders.
But today is different. Not only did I meet them, but I also shook hands with the leaders and will be able to drink with them later.
What an honor this is!
Everyone smiled and followed Qian Lingyun and his group with respectful eyes.
Until Qian Lingyun sat down in the main seat.
Yuan Qingjiang waved to the people who were still standing and said, "Sit down." Only then did everyone dare to pull their chairs and sit down slowly, but their eyes were still on Qian Lingyun's table.
At this time, Li Lin brought a group of comrades to set up another table next to the main table of the city leaders.
Qian Lingyun turned his head slightly and saw Li Lin, so he asked Yuan Qingjiang in a somewhat dissatisfied tone, "Director Yuan, why did you arrange Li Lin to sit at another table? Did you forget that he is the main guest tonight?"
Yuan Qingjiang slapped his forehead and explained with a helpless smile, "I originally wanted to arrange Xiaolin to sit at our table, but he disagreed. He said that this table is full of city leaders and he couldn't break the rules... He insisted on sitting with his group comrades. I had no choice but to temporarily move the group's seats to the main table."
Hearing this, Qian Lingyun nodded, turned to look at Li Lin, and showed an approving look. He was very happy that Li Lin did not take advantage of his favor and always remembered to put the overall situation first.
Tonight's occasion was very special. Almost all units in the government building had sent representatives to attend, and the tables and seats were arranged according to their levels.
If Li Lin sat next to Qian Lingyun today like he usually did, there would be countless people gossiping about him tomorrow, saying things like "Who would Li Lin be if he wasn't Mayor Qian?" "This guy is so disrespectful and doesn't know the rules..."
Although they do not pay attention to other people's opinions, they should set the right direction and let all cadres see that government leaders are friendly, fair and selfless. Only in this way can they gather everyone around a core and build a united and powerful team.
