"I'm sorry, County Magistrate Chang, I was delayed on the way."
"It's okay, it's okay. The distinguished guests always arrive last. Come on, come on, take your seat."
Only then did Li Lin realize that in addition to Chang Guochao, there were two other beautiful women in the private room.
I always feel that one of them looks familiar, but I just can't remember where I have seen him.
Under the guidance of Chang Guochao, Li Lin sat on his right.
Next to him was the beautiful lady who looked somewhat familiar.
"Come here, Xiaolin, let me introduce you."
"The person next to me is Wang Huiru, Section Chief of the Personnel Department of our Education Bureau."
"The person next to you is the deputy director of the government office, Zheng Pei. She also serves as the general manager of the county hotel. You two are of similar age. You can have more in-depth exchanges when you have time...hahahaha.
When Chang Guochao said the words "in-depth communication", his eyes were extremely obscene... Just like what Yang Ping said, it was disgusting.
Li Lin looked at Zheng Pei beside him and nodded to her politely.
Zheng Pei also responded to her with a smile, neither lukewarm nor enthusiastic.
Chang Guochao is an old pervert. How decent can the women he calls be?
Li Lin had a preconceived notion and had a bad first impression of Zheng Pei.
After the drinking party started, Chang Guochao stood up first, drank two taels of wine in one gulp, and walked towards Li Lin with a smile.
He held the wine jug in one hand and tightly grasped Li Lin's hand with the other, and said with a smile, "Brother, although we have met several times before, we have never been close friends.
This time you have taken the position of the top leader of Weishui Township, and as the leader in charge, we have become comrades in the same trench.
With this glass of wine, I first congratulate you on your promotion, and I also wish you continued success. Come on, drink it up!"
Chang Guochao filled a glass of wine for Li Linzhen and handed it to him.
Li Lin took it with his hand and said with a smile, "Thank you County Magistrate Chang for your continued support and love for our Weishui Township. I hope that during my tenure, County Magistrate Chang will continue to support me as always!"
Under the gaze of the three people, Li Lin raised his head and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.
Seeing Li Lin drinking so happily, Chang Guochao laughed heartily.
"Drinking and working, this shows that Brother Li Lin is a capable person!"
He looked at Zheng Pei with a lecherous look and said teasingly, "Director Zheng, our Secretary Li is so capable, why don't you quickly recruit him?"
Zheng Pei was suddenly called out, and she didn't react for a moment. It took her two seconds to understand what Chang Guochao meant. She waved her hand and said, "County Magistrate Chang, please stop joking. Secretary Li is such an outstanding person, how could he like me?"
Chang Guochao disagreed with her and said seriously, "Everyone knows that Director Zheng is the most beautiful woman in our county government. Not only is she beautiful, but she is also capable at work. If you can get together with Brother Li Lin, that would be a strong alliance! Hahaha..."
Zheng Pei was like a young girl who had never left the attic, her face flushed with shame.
It can be seen that she is very thin-skinned and does not look like someone who often hangs out in such occasions.
"That's not right. Director Zheng is young and beautiful, and I am not worthy of her. Haha, come on, County Mayor Chang, I want to toast you too!"
Li Lin took the wine pot, filled his own goblet, and added half a cup to Chang Guochao's glass.
He raised his glass and clinked it with Chang Guochao, with the rim of his glass modestly lower than Chang Guochao's glass.
When Chang Guochao saw that Li Lin was so sensible, he laughed, picked up the wine glass and drank it all.
After three rounds of drinks, Chang Guochao's hands started to get naughty.
He teased Wang Huiru beside him from time to time, sometimes hugging her in his arms, and sometimes pinching her chest with her hands.
He didn't care at all whether Li Lin and Zheng Pei who were present would feel embarrassed.
Wang Huiru seemed to have gotten used to it. She just said no, but her body was pressed tightly against Chang Guochao without moving at all.
Zheng Pei looked at this blushing scene, dared not look at it directly, and quickly lowered her head.
Li Lin had no intention of continuing this drinking party and was looking for an excuse to leave.
Chang Guochao suddenly turned his head and whispered to him, "Brother, I have something to ask you."
Li Lin knew that they were about to get to the point.
"County Magistrate Chang, please tell me what you want to say."
Chang Guochao chuckled, seeming to appreciate Li Lin's straightforwardness, "I heard that the Lu family's house was classified as an illegal building?"
"He called me this afternoon and asked me to help sort it out."
"This Old Lu, we've known each other for a long time and have some friendship. Now that he's asked me, I can't just ignore him, right?"
Li Lin did not answer. He stared at the wine glass in front of him with a smile, waiting for Chang Guochao to continue.
Chang Guochao smiled and said, "Old Lu is also a person of status in the county. I think we should still take care of his face. Don't you think so?"
We? She said it as if she was very close to Li Lin. He forced himself not to laugh out loud.
According to normal practice, Li Lin should take the initiative to express his opinion at this time, or at least say "yes".
But no matter how Chang Guochao hinted, Li Lin refused to fall for it and just smiled indifferently.
Seeing Li Lin's performance, Chang Guochao felt a little uncomfortable.
There's no other way. Hints won't work, so let's just get straight to the point.
He shook the wine glass in his hand and said with a fake smile, "Brother, I think it's better to give Old Lu a favor this time and forget about the illegal construction!"
Give him a favor? That sounds really nice.
If you have a little power, you will shamelessly give face to everyone.
Using state property as a bargaining chip to curry favor is so fucking shameless!
The smile on Chang Guochao's face gradually disappeared, and he stared at Li Lin for an answer.
A sharp look suddenly flashed in Li Lin's eyes.
Then he regained his composure and said, "It seems that Deputy County Chief Chang didn't invite me to drink tonight specifically, but because of the Lu family, he invited me to drink, right?"
Chang Guochao was stunned. He didn't expect Li Lin to ask this. But at this moment, his patience had run out. He answered stiffly, "Does it make any difference?"
"Of course there is a difference." Li Lin smiled, "If it is you, Deputy County Chief Chang, who came to congratulate me, I would be very grateful."
"But if Deputy County Chief Chang invited me to drink in order to mediate for others, please forgive my rudeness, but I will leave now!"
Li Lin stood up, said sorry to everyone with a smile, turned around and walked out the door.
Just walked to the door.
Chang Guochao's angry voice came.
"Li Lin! You are too arrogant!"
"I am your direct supervisor, how could you ignore me like this?"
"I'm warning you. You haven't secured your position as Party Secretary yet. Believe it or not, I will go find Secretary Liu tomorrow and remove you from your position as Party Secretary of Weishui Township!"
Li Lin laughed secretly in his heart, the county committee he was talking about was like his own family, he could dismiss anyone he wanted, so overbearing!
He didn't want to make the relationship between them too strained.
But the aggressive tone of this deputy county magistrate is really annoying.
Li Lin smiled and turned back, saying disdainfully, "If Deputy County Chief Chang has this ability, you can try it!"
Everyone present was shocked.
Especially Zheng Pei, her mouth was shaped into an O by shock.
