Du Wanqiu was very happy to receive Xu Yishan's call. She seemed to have forgotten the unhappiness that Cheng Zihua's performance of romance brought her. When she heard that Xu Yishan invited her out for a sit down, she agreed without saying a word.
After hanging up the phone, Xu Yishan smiled and said to Cheng Zihua: "It's done. It's your turn to play next. I have to avoid it."
"You can't avoid it." Cheng Zihua said hastily: "You're not here, when she arrives and sees me alone, why don't you take all your grievances on me again?"
"No way." Xu Yishan comforted him: "Du Wanqiu is not an ordinary social woman. She is of such high quality, it is impossible for her to do what a person with low quality would do."
No matter what Xu Yishan asked, Cheng Zihua refused to let him go.
Xu Yishan had no choice but to sit down with him and wait for Du Wanqiu's arrival.
The place where Xu Yishan and Du Wanqiu agreed to meet was a very high-end coffee shop. This kind of place is suitable for men and women to talk about love.
Half an hour later, Du Wanqiu's figure finally appeared at the door.
During the half hour of waiting, Cheng Zihua felt as uncomfortable as sitting on pins and needles. He was looking forward to Du Wanqiu's appearance earlier, but was also afraid of her appearance.
His meaning is very clear, and he hopes to get Du Wanqiu's understanding through a private apology. As long as Du Wanqiu doesn't pursue him, Secretary Wang will definitely not magnify this matter.
Before coming to find Xu Yishan, he mustered up the courage to call Du Wanqiu. But as soon as Du Wanqiu saw that it was his call, she would immediately hang up.
He also begged Deng Xiaofang to fight for him, but as a result, Deng Xiaofang spoke so bluntly that it was revealed in a few words that Cheng Zihua had made an appointment with her. As a result, she was rejected by Du Wanqiu as usual.
Xu Yishan easily asked Du Wanqiu out with just one phone call, which made Cheng Zihua happy and jealous.
"She's here." Cheng Zihua reminded Xu Yishan, "Will you go to meet her?"
"It's better for you to go."
Chen Zhihua shook his head, smiled wryly and said: "I'm afraid she will turn her head and leave as soon as she sees me. Wouldn't that be a waste of all previous efforts? Old Xu, you should go, you are destined for a woman."
Xu Yishan had no choice but to stand up and meet him. When Du Wanqiu saw him, a smile appeared on her face.
"Why did you think of asking me out?" Du Wanqiu said a little shyly, "Ask me here, what do you want?"
"Yes, it's very important." Xu Yishan said solemnly: "Let's talk about it in the room."
She was in front, followed by Xu Yishan. When she pushed open the door of the box, she suddenly saw Cheng Zihua who was restless in the room, Du Wanqiu's face sank instantly, she turned around and was about to leave.
When she turned around, she almost bumped into Xu Yishan.
"Xu Yishan, you lied to me." Du Wanqiu gritted her teeth and said, "So you guys are working together."
Xu Yishan quickly explained: "Mayor Du, don't be angry, just listen to my explanation."
"I won't listen." Du Wanqiu flatly refused, "You just lied to me, so there's nothing to explain."
She insisted that she wanted to leave, Xu Yishan became anxious, and blurted out: "I'm not a child, nor an enemy, why don't we sit together and tell the truth?"
"What can I say?" Du Wanqiu frowned, and snorted, "I don't want to talk to people."
Cheng Zihua came over, he was ashamed, and said in a low voice: "Wanqiu, I'm sorry, can you listen to my explanation?"
Du Wanqiu mercilessly despised him again, "Childish."
Under Xu Yishan's rhetoric, Du Wanqiu has no intention of leaving immediately.
Xu Yishan handed her a cup of coffee, smiled and said: "It's hot, drink it while it's hot."
Du Wanqiu glanced at him in surprise, and said with a half-smile: "When did you learn to drink coffee? Isn't this something bourgeois?"
Xu Yishan pointed to Cheng Zihua and said, "Follow Mayor Cheng, if I don't improve my quality of life, I will be ashamed of Mayor Cheng."
Du Wanqiu curled her lips in disdain, but remained silent.
Xu Yishan quickly winked at Cheng Zihua, motioning him to say what he wanted to say quickly.
However, Cheng Zihua hesitated, unable to speak for a long time.
Xu Yishan suddenly understood that Cheng Zihua was embarrassed to say what he wanted to say because of his presence.
So, he got up with an excuse and said, "Talk first, I'll go to the bathroom."
Seeing that he was about to leave, Du Wanqiu hesitated to speak. But she still didn't make a sound to stop him from leaving. Everyone knew that if Xu Yishan ran away, he would disappear without a trace.
? After coming out of the coffee shop, Xu Yishan took a picture.?? didn't delay, and really slipped away.
As soon as he returned to the dormitory, Xu Yishan received a call from Governor Lu's secretary. Tell him to go to Governor Lu's office quickly. The chief has something important to talk to him about.
Xu Yishan didn't dare to neglect, so he quickly called a taxi and went straight to the provincial government compound.
Seeing him coming in sweating profusely, Governor Lu smiled and said, "Yishan, why are you sweating profusely? Let's take a rest first, and we'll talk later if we have something to do."
Xu Yishan hurriedly said: "Director, please give me instructions, I'm fine. I was in a hurry just now. Don't rest."
Governor Lu nodded and signaled the secretary to go out.
The secretary gently closed the door, and there were only the two of them left in the room.
"Yishan, I want to ask for your opinion on something. The Provincial Party Committee has decided to let you take the place of Cheng Zihua in the study. Do you have any opinions?"
Xu Yishan was taken aback. Doesn't this mean that he will replace Cheng Zihua as the mayor of Shaoyang?
He collected himself and said softly, "I obey the organization's arrangements."
Governor Lu seemed very satisfied with his statement, and he said earnestly: "There is one thing that needs to be clarified. This time you go to Shaoyang, you can only start as the deputy mayor. Would you like to?"
Xu Yishan knew that this was a matter of organizational procedures. His current official status is only the temporary deputy secretary of Maoshan County. If he is directly promoted to the position of mayor, it will violate the organization's promotion procedures.
Governor Lu's meaning is also very clear. Xu Yishan needs to practice in the position of deputy mayor for a period of time before he can get to the position of mayor in a legitimate way.
There are many deputy mayors in a city, and no one cares if there is one more or one less. For example, the chief of public security bureau in many places is the deputy mayor. Except for the executive deputy mayor, the other deputy mayors basically do not have much power.
For Xu Yishan, the deputy mayor of Shaoyang City is purely a transition.
Xu Yishan said without even thinking about it: "I personally don't have any opinions. But, Chief, I have an idea, can I tell you?"
Governor Lu glanced at him and said, "Speak, you can say whatever you want."
Xu Yishan plucked up his courage and said: "I personally feel that the replacement of Comrade Cheng Zihua at this time is a very big blow to Comrade Cheng Zihua. Moreover, to be honest, there is also a taboo to change generals just before the battle."
Governor Lu fell silent.
It was not Governor Lu's intention to replace Cheng Zihua with Xu Yishan.
After Cheng Zihua caused a storm of courtship in the classroom, many leaders of the provincial party committee expressed their opinions that Cheng Zihua's behavior must be dealt with. In Cheng Zihua's eyes, this kind of romantic behavior became frivolous in the eyes of the leader.
The leaders dare not hand over a city to frivolous people.
So someone suggested that Xu Yishan replace Cheng Zihua. And this proposal was quickly approved by most leaders. However, all the leaders expressed the same opinion. Xu Yishan can be promoted in an exceptional way, but he cannot be promoted beyond the norm.
This is the reason why Governor Lu personally interviewed Xu Yishan on behalf of the provincial government.
"I personally think that Comrade Cheng Zihua's problem is not a big problem. He may have been a little careless, but these are not an excuse for him to be replaced."
Governor Lu's face sank and he said, "Xiao Xu, you have quite a lot of ideas."
Xu Yishan said with a smile on his face: "Chief, I only dare to tell the truth in front of you."
"Okay, let's not discuss this issue. You wait for the notice." Governor Lu waved his hand, motioning him to leave.
