Upon hearing that Li Cheng was also at the Tea House, Director Pi first said "Oh", but then he suddenly shouted: "Why didn't you say so earlier?"
The driver's face twitched twice, and he thought to himself, I saw that you were unhappy, so I wanted to divert your attention, but I didn't expect you to yell at me.
"You didn't ask me?"
"go back!"
Director Pi drove back to the Tea House.
When Director Pi walked into the hall again, he met Principal Han again.
Seeing Director Pi coming back, Principal Han smiled and said, "Oh, what did you forget to take? Could it be money?"
Director Pi didn't want to pay attention to him, so he said to a waiter, "Where's Li Cheng? Which room is he in?"
The waiter just smiled and didn't answer him.
Principal Han next to him said, "Do you understand the rules here?"
Director Pi then remembered that they were not looking for anyone at the Tea House.
Director Pi glanced at Principal Han, then took out his phone...
After Li Cheng received the call from Director Pi, he looked at Weng Xiaozhu who was sitting opposite him and said, "Director Pi is coming up. Do you want to see him?"
Weng Xiaozhu disliked the greasy Director Pi. However, remembering that Director Pi had given her a good renovation project, she nodded and said, "It would be nice to meet him. It's a good opportunity to thank him."
Li Cheng said, "Why thank him? Logically speaking, he still owes you some money."
Li Cheng was talking about the last time they played mahjong. Li Cheng set up a trap and made Director Pi owe him a favor.
As the two were talking, footsteps were heard outside the door. After the door opened, Director Pi walked in dejectedly.
Seeing him like this, Li Cheng quickly stood up, asked him to sit down, and poured him a cup of tea.
Weng Xiaozhu also stood up and took a warm, wet towel from the bathroom and asked him to wipe his face.
Director Pi covered his face with a towel and immediately felt better.
"Director Pi, have you had dinner?" Li Cheng asked.
Director Pi thought to himself, "What the hell! I received a call from President Gao a long time ago, which made me wait for him for more than an hour and missed dinner time."
"Director Pi, weren't you waiting for someone here before? What happened? Did you not wait for the person, or did you not discuss the matter well? Or did the other party make you angry?" Weng Xiaozhu also asked with concern.
What could Director Pi say? Faced with two friends who had known him for less than a month but cared deeply about him, Director Pi felt warm in his heart.
Those who call me their brother are just trying to get something from me. But Li Cheng and Mr. Weng are different. Although they also want to get something from me, they are doing what human beings should do and really treat me like family.
Thinking of this, Director Pi covered his face with the towel again.
At this time, he heard Li Cheng say, "Boss Weng, have someone prepare something for Director Pi to eat. He seems to have not eaten and looks very tired."
Weng Xiaozhu agreed and then got up and left.
Director Pi put down the towel, then looked at Li Cheng and said, "Li Cheng, brother, we are in trouble here------"
After Director Pi told him that President Gao was looking for him and what happened with the empty house, Li Chengxin said that he had just returned from Champs Elysées this afternoon and had not expected things to develop to this point.
"Director Pi, you said the higher-ups asked you to restore the house to its original state within a week?"
"Yeah, a week. He didn't even think about it. When they rented the house, they said it was just for a short stay. Now, not only are they living here permanently, but they're blaming me for everything."
Li Chengxin said, "If I don't blame you, who should I blame? You are the director of the infrastructure department, in charge of those houses. Those people asked you to borrow the house and you agreed. They have given you many benefits over the years."
Take your position as Director of Infrastructure, for example. How many people have tried to unseat you, but has anyone succeeded? Despite facing countless rumors and rumors, haven't you continued to perform your duties and collect your salary?
In fact, you are not wronged at all.
Besides, what about those houses you rented out privately? Although you didn't say you had anything to do with them, the rent did go into your own pocket.
It wouldn't be too much to hand you over to the relevant departments.
Of course, Li Cheng didn't want to do that yet. After all, Director Pi was still useful.
So, Li Cheng pretended to be worried about him and said, "Director Pi, what are you going to do? Also, how can I help you?"
Director Pi thought for a moment and said, "I've come up with a solution, but it's a little difficult to implement."
Li Cheng was about to ask him what the solution was when Weng Xiaozhu came in. Behind her followed a waiter, holding a tray with some food on it.
Li Cheng quickly collected the things in front of Director Pi, and Weng Xiaozhu personally placed the food in front of him.
Director Pi must have been extremely hungry. When he saw those exquisite side dishes and a small bowl of fragrant rice, he couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
Li Cheng said, "Director Pi, please eat first. We can talk after you finish eating."
Weng Xiaozhu also said, "That's right, Director Pi, we can discuss worldly affairs after dinner. You can eat first, there's more if you're not satisfied."
Director Pi nodded to them gratefully, and then began to eat with big mouthfuls of food.
Li Cheng and Weng Xiaozhu looked at each other, both of them feeling that it was not appropriate to leave immediately, so they could only watch Director Pi eat while he was panting.
In just over ten minutes, Director Pi finished all the food.
Looking at Director Pi who was drinking tea, Weng Xiaozhu asked, "Director Pi, are you full? If not, I'll ask them to bring more."
