Hang up the phone.
Li Lin then called Zhang Yupei who was far away in Shannan County.
During this period, he was handling a case in the provincial capital and received a call from Zhang Yupei.
Although Zhang Yupei did not show much disappointment on the phone, Li Lin could imagine how painful it must be for Zhang Yupei, who had a submissive character, to be ostracized by others.
But at that time, Li Lin didn't know exactly where he would go in the future, so he couldn't comfort Zhang Yupei. He just advised him to work hard, hoping that he would experience setbacks, overcome them, and not put too much pressure on himself...
Although everyone knew that these words of comfort were of little help to Zhang Yupei's actual work and life, that was all Li Lin could do at that time.
Now the situation has improved. At least Li Lin knows for sure that the Pingyang Municipal Committee will further use him. As long as he has an actual position, he can do a lot of practical things, which can give those subordinates who have served him a reassurance, letting them know that he has stood up again and their strong support has returned. This is more important than a hundred words of comfort.
When the call was connected, Zhang Yupei's excited voice came, "County Magistrate Li, you are back? Do you have any instructions?"
Li Lin smiled and said, "Yupei, I'm still in the provincial capital. I called you just to tell you that if you're not satisfied with your work recently, you should take a break for a while. I'll let Director Wang of the government office know and he'll approve your leave."
When Zhang Yupei heard that Li Lin was still in the provincial capital, the light in his eyes dimmed a lot. He thought that Li Lin had returned as a king...but he didn't expect that he came to comfort him after all.
He forced himself to smile and said, "Leader, I'm fine. Director Wang approved a few days of vacation for me, and I've rested... Don't worry, after your guidance, I can handle this setback. Those people in the office are always gossipy, let them say whatever they want... I don't care about those things now. I just hope that you can come back one day earlier, so that I can still serve you..."
Li Lin was silent for a moment. From Zhang Yupei's helpless tone, it was not difficult to hear that after he was dismissed, his life as a secretary was not very good. He was excluded and ridiculed everywhere...
After listening to Zhang Yupei's words, Li Lin suddenly recalled the days when he was demoted from the Pingyang Municipal Government to Weishui Township... There were cold faces and naked ridicules everywhere... Those days were really torturous for a person.
But he survived, not only was he not defeated, but he grew a lot. He hoped that Zhang Yupei could also hold on and take advantage of this time to polish his character.
Li Lin sighed and said, "Yupei, I understand your feelings. I have also come out of that situation. You don't have to hold on. Listen to me, take a rest for a while, and wait for me to come back."
Wait for him to come back peacefully?
Hearing this, Zhang Yupei was shocked as if struck by lightning. He was looking forward to Li Lin's early return, but he knew that the hope was slim. Now, hearing the hint of "return" from Li Lin, he was extremely excited.
This day is finally here, the darkest moment is finally coming to an end.
He bit his lip tightly, his eyes slightly red, and nodded heavily, saying, "Leader, I will wait for you to come back peacefully. Don't worry, I, Zhang Yupei, will always be your soldier. No matter what time it is, I will never embarrass you."
Li Lin nodded with relief, "Yupei, you are great, I didn't misjudge you, let's have a good chat when I get back."
"Um!"
The moment he hung up the phone, Zhang Yupei, who was hiding in the government bathroom to answer the call, suddenly felt the grievances that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time burst out, and his eyes were blurred with tears.
He roared silently, "County Magistrate Li is coming back... The leader is coming back... No one will dare to laugh at me in person anymore!"
Xu Wen got up from the bed and was getting dressed.
Li Lin walked up to her and said suddenly, "Wenwen, pack up. I will accompany you back to Yanjing in the afternoon."
Xu Wen paused while getting dressed, looked at Li Lin in confusion and asked, "Why so sudden?"
Li Lin smiled helplessly and said, "I just received a call from Mayor Qian, asking me to return to Pingyang as soon as possible, but I promised you that I would accompany you back to Yanjing to visit your uncle and aunt, so I asked for three days off. I think three days is enough for a trip to Yanjing, right?"
Xu Wen was a little disappointed and pouted, "It's enough... but it feels too hasty to change the plan suddenly... By the way, is there something important that Mayor Qian asked you to go back for? Does he want to reappoint you?"
Li Lin shook his head slightly and said with a smile, "Mayor Qian just said that he wanted to relieve me of the burden, but he didn't say how to arrange it specifically. Wenwen, I'm sorry, I wanted to spend the Spring Festival with you..."
Xu Wen came over, put her arms around Li Lin's neck and said, "I'm sorry, but your work is more important. How about you go back to Pingyang first, and when you're done, we can plan to accompany me back to Yanjing?"
Li Lin shook his head without thinking and said, "I'm afraid not. If I go back to Pingyang, I won't have any free time at all."
This is the truth. In addition to work, Pingyang still has a lot of things to deal with. Even though the holiday is coming soon, the holiday can only be a two or three days of rest. If Qian Lingyun directly reinstates him, the county government's affairs... I'm afraid it will be difficult to have two days of peace.
Xu Wen nodded helplessly, showing an understanding smile, and said, "Time is too tight, how about this, wait until you are done and then accompany me back?"
Li Lin was silent, stretched out his hands and hugged her into his arms, saying apologetically, "Okay, there is a long way to go. I will accompany you well for the next two days."
Pingyang Municipal Committee.
As the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, Qian Lingyun already had his own office in the municipal party committee.
