Guo Xuecai smiled awkwardly and nodded, "Yes, yes, I understand what you said..."
But he cursed in his heart - Damn it, you are still pretending to be with me, saying that you are doing it for the masses, and we cadres should all die? Can't you just make some money? Damn... Let's see how long you can pretend...
Li Lin knew that he was a smiling tiger and a petty person, and guessed that he must be cursing himself in his heart at this moment.
But he didn't care at all, thinking to himself, if you have the guts then curse out loud, if you don't have the guts then just hold it in!
Look at the time, it's half past six...
He knew that Tong Xiaoxuan and the others were still waiting for him in Dongsheng... It was a bit rude to be late for their first meeting...
"Secretary Guo, if there is nothing else, I will go back first."
Li Lin didn't want to listen to him nagging any more, so he stood up and said goodbye.
Guo Xuecai could only watch Li Lin leave in dismay...
After Li Lin left, Guo Xuecai called Tang Yiming.
"Old Tang, where are you? Want to have a drink?"
Tang Yiming was actually already drinking with his friends at this time, but did he dare to refuse the invitation from the municipal party secretary?
So he canceled the meeting with his friend and went to Guo Xuecai's house to have a drink with him.
As soon as the two met, Guo Xuecai vented all his dissatisfaction with Li Lin...
Looking at the municipal party secretary who was "bullied" so badly by Li Lin, Tang Yiming kept shaking his head and sighing.
What can he do?
Come to think of it, Li Lin and Qian Lingyun spared him once...
It would be fine if he was ungrateful, but he would definitely not dare to go against Li Lin again!
But seeing Li Lin becoming more and more arrogant and increasingly disregarding the city leaders, he felt very uncomfortable.
They are all holding back a lot of anger.
...
Six fifty.
Tong Xiaoxuan's butt was sore from sitting so much, and he felt sick from drinking tea.
But she still insisted on waiting for Li Lin to come.
It's strange that women have this strong mentality: the more someone ignores her, the more she fights back.
"Sister-in-law, let's eat first? Xiaolin is not a stranger, we can talk to him when he comes later!"
Qu Xiuwen was afraid that Tong Xiaoxuan would get angry, so he tried to persuade her.
Xu Yilong was still thinking, isn't this Pingyang? Isn't it said that a tiger in Pingyang is in trouble?
It can be seen that Xiao Xuan's temper is still so stubborn, and he has no intention of tuck his tail between his legs...
He couldn't beat Tong Xiaoxuan.
I'm even more afraid of her getting angry.
So he smiled and said, "Xiao Xuan, Xiu Wen is right, we are not outsiders... Let's eat first... Okay?"
Tong Xiaoxuan is indeed a well-educated person with good qualities. He drank his tea without changing his expression and said calmly, "Wait! This is our first meeting, so we can't be rude!"
This was clearly an accusation of Li Lin being rude.
Xu Yilong and Qu Xiuwen had no choice but to give up and wait with her.
During this period, Xu Yillong called Li Lin several times, but Li Lin hung up every time... He knew that Li Lin must have something important to tell him.
This brother-in-law is very reliable. He will not break a promise for no reason. You will know when he comes and ask him.
As he was thinking this, the door of the box was pushed open and Li Lin walked in quietly.
Xu Yilong was pleasantly surprised when he saw Li Lin. He quickly stood up and offered his seat to Li Lin. "Come on, come on, Xiao Lin. You must be busy with work, right? Is it Guo Xuecai who is looking for you? He is the municipal party secretary. You definitely can't get away if he wants to see you. Come on... Sit down and chat slowly!"
Without waiting for Li Lin to speak, he found an excuse for Li Lin.
Li Lin smiled, walked up to the group, and said to Xu Yilong, "Brother, I'm sorry, Secretary Guo called me to talk, so I'm late."
Xu Yilong felt relieved and said with a smile, "I knew you must have something important to do. It doesn't matter, we are all family... Let me introduce you solemnly, this is your sister-in-law... Tong Xiaoxuan..."
Li Lin walked over, smiled and extended his hand, "Hello sister-in-law, I'm really sorry to have kept you waiting for so long on this first meeting."
Tong Xiaoxuan did not stand up, but just looked up at Li Lin, as if she was sizing him up, or as if she was blaming him. After a few seconds of stalemate, she generously extended her jade hand to shake Li Lin's hand, saying, "Not bad! He looks good, tall and strong, no wonder our Wenwen is so obsessed with him... I just don't know what he's like inside, whether he's as good as he looks."
This is not a compliment, it implies that Li Lin is two-faced and a cunning person.
Li Lin didn't mind and kept smiling in the face of Tong Xiaoxuan's cold face.
He didn't explain anything, but nodded and smiled at her, then sat down next to Xu Yillong.
This surprised Tong Xiaoxuan. She thought Li Lin would make some glib excuses, but he didn't...
She couldn't help but look at Li Lin twice more.
At this time, Qu Xiuwen joked, "Sister-in-law, I know Xiaolin is handsome, but you can't keep staring at him... My brother Long is jealous! I'm jealous too... Hahaha..."
Tong Xiaoxuan blushed slightly and glared at Qu Xiuwen, "Your brother is jealous, so let him be jealous. Why are you making trouble for him?"
Qu Xiuwen said, "I'm afraid that once handsome Xiaolin comes, you won't take care of me anymore... hehe..."
The two of them are too familiar with each other and probably have a lot of verbal battles with each other.
Li Lin smiled along and didn't interrupt, nor could he get a word in.
Xu Yillong announced that the meal was about to begin, and as soon as he said that, he started picking up food for Tong Xiaoxuan.
This surprised Li Lin a little. Such a warm-hearted man was not like Mr. Xu whom he just met!
Xu Yillong did this not simply to please Tong Xiaoxuan, but also to reduce Tong Xiaoxuan's anger level... He was afraid that this cold and arrogant young lady would make things difficult for Li Lin, so he hurried to show his courtesy in order to attract fire and divert Tong Xiaoxuan's attention.
