Chapter 566: Leaving No Room For Maneuver
y haven't been able to achieve it in any previous year. 。In this sense, Dai Xuemeng really has to thank Xiao Zheng. 。But he didn't like Xiao Zheng in his heart, and naturally he didn't want to thank...At the round table in the restaurant, Chen Guangming sat at the head of the table. Li Zhiping, director of the Provincial Tea Art Center, sat on his left, as the guest of honor. Sun Wenmin sat to Chen Guangming's right, Xiao Zheng sat below Li Zhiping, and Chen Hong sat below Xiao Zheng. 。Chen Guangming picked up the small glass teapot and poured wine for Li Zhiping: "Director Li, today is a double celebration for our family, so we should drink more." 。Li Zhiping had just finished a cup and knew this Maotai liquor had been aged for several years. Its taste was different from the usual kind, so he didn't refuse it. He asked with interest, "What does Director Chen mean by 'double happiness' You've piqued my curiosity." 。At this time, Chen Hong also poured wine for Xiao Zheng: "You're out of wine." 。Chen Hong's every move, the faint scent of perfume drifted into Xiao Zheng's nostrils. There was no doubt that this perfume was a high-end imported product. 。Perfume is a woman's most lethal weapon, capable of stimulating a man's senses, and some perfumes can even make a man fall in love with a woman. 。Xiao Zheng admitted that the scent of perfume on Chen Hong today was also quite unusual. However, he already understood Chen Hong's intentions and wasn't taken in by it. When Chen Hong poured him wine, he tapped his index finger against the small cup and said, "Thank you" 。Chen Hong smiled sweetly at him and poured herself a glass. 。On that side, Sun Wenmin poured himself a small cup as well. Everyone was drinking Moutai today. In the past, Chen Hong and Sun Wenmin usually drank softer red wine. 。It's unclear whether it was the good wine or Chen Hong and Sun Wenmin's expression of welcome to our esteemed guests that made them all drink baijiu
Chen Guangming had already raised his small cup of alcohol and stood up: "Director Li, today's 'double happiness,' the first joy is that Comrade Xiao Zheng has been promoted to county magistrate. This is the first time we've gathered together after his promotion." 。Li Zhiping cast a look of admiration at Xiao Zheng: “County magistrate Xiao is young and capable, I feel honored to be able to participate in this family banquet.” 。"Xiao Zheng immediately said: “Director Li, you flatter me. This is nothing special. The main thing is that the organization trusts..." 。"And the second piece of good news is that Director Li has graced us with his presence, making our humble abode truly shine! With Director Li here in An County, our tea farms and farmers can rest assured. Next year's tea production will be guaranteed. That's the second piece of good news!" 。"Li Zhiping smiled and waved his hand, saying, “Director Chen, you are really too polite! I'm just here to have a meal and drink some tea. What could be more joyful than that!” Chen Guangming replied, "Of course it is joyful!" 。Mr. Li, our family are all natives of Anxian County, Anxian is good, that means we are good; When Anxian prospers, we prosper as well. 。Now, Xiao Zheng is the county magistrate, a well-deserved official for his people! As long as it benefits the commoners of An County, it will surely be his "pleasure." 。County Magistrate Xiao, isn't that right"
Xiao Zheng had to admit, Chen Guangming was really good at talking. 。Xiao Zheng nodded and said, "Yes, Director Chen is right." 。I promoted that ‘joy,’ it wasn't really ‘joy,’ but Director Li coming to Anxian County to help us solve the tea tree pest problem is a real ‘joy’ for us. 。“As for Chen Guangming and Xiao Zheng's importance placed on themselves, Li Zhiping felt very much appreciated inside.” 。He smiled and said, “County Magistrate Xiao, you are too modest.” 。While being appointed to the higher position by County Magistrate Xiao is a "joy" for me; it is also a "joy" for County Magistrate Xiao that I come to An County. 。This indicates that both events are 'good news', it seems that Director Chen's summary is the most comprehensive. This is a 'double blessing', so we should not change Director Chen's statement. 。"Thank you, Director Li, for your recognition." 。"Chen Guangming stood up and said, “Then let's raise a glass to the double happiness that has come to our family!” 。Sun Wenmin and Chen Hong also said, "Cheers!" 。And so everyone drank from their cups. 。Xiao Zheng also finished his drink. What concerned him most was the tea tree pest problem. Putting down his glass, he asked Li Zhiping: "Director Li, is there any possibility of curing this tea tree pest disease immediately" Li Zhiping also put down his glass and said in an expert's tone: "It's common for tea trees to suffer from pests and diseases in winter. Good overwintering prevention and control of tea tree pests and diseases will have a very positive effect on next year's tea production." 。Nowadays, the green tea industry in Tianhuang Town is just starting out. It's possible that they haven't encountered such a large-scale tea worm problem before, but there's no need to panic. 。Our province has very rich experience in tea tree pest and disease control technology. 。Tomorrow, I will go to the scene to have a look and understand the specific situation, and then formulate specific countermeasures. 。If things get complicated, I can also bring in a team of experts from the province. 。"When Li Zhiping said that, Xiao Zheng felt much more at ease." 。He raised his glass and said, "Director Li, I'd like to toast you on behalf of An County and Tianhuang Town." 。“Li Zhiping also raised his cup, smiling and saying, “County Magistrate Xiao is too polite.” 。I heard from Director Chen that you are more than just a regular friend of Chen Hong. 。I am also very good friends with Director Chen, so naturally, your matter is also my own. 。I will definitely do my best. 。Xiao Zheng's heart skipped a beat. What did "not just an ordinary friend of Chen Hong" mean What else was she implying But now, An County's tea industry really needed experts like Li Zhiping. On this point, Xiao Zheng couldn't explain too much and say he had nothing to do with Chen Hong anymore, otherwise it would ruin the atmosphere at the dinner table. 。Xiao Zheng had to smile and say, "I'll drink it first." 。
Li Zhiping also drank a cup of Maotai wine. 。Then he said, "Director Chen, you're truly selfless! Using your own good wine and dishes to entertain me! All for the public good! Some people are 'self-serving,' but Director Chen is 'putting himself last for the common good.'" 。You could have gone to the hotel and let the government take care of you. 。。I invited Director Li to have dinner at my place today for two reasons. Firstly, our friendship goes far beyond ordinary work relationships. Secondly, the government can't provide good liquor for official banquets, so I hope that since Director Li is here, he can enjoy some fine wine. 。"Li Zhiping was delighted and raised his cup again: “Well, I'll ‘borrow flowers to offer Buddha,’ using Bureau Chief Chen’s fine wine to toast everyone!" 。"Well, you're too kind," said Chen Guangming. "The wine on the table is for everyone." 。Then, everyone had another cup. 。Then we talked about many things, political affairs and family matters, and drank quite a bit of alcohol. 。Xiao Zheng wanted to steer the conversation towards the treatment of tea tree diseases, wanting to learn more about the relevant knowledge and practices. However, Chen Guangming brought the topic back to personal and family matters in a few sentences. 。After drinking quite a bit of Maotai liquor, Director Li's interests shifted more towards his job, salary, housing, and his children's employment. 。Xiao Zheng looked at the time and realized it was getting late. He had already gotten Li Zhiping's business card, so he raised his glass again to toast Li Zhiping, saying that he had some things to attend to and needed to leave early. He asked Li Zhiping if he could come to the county tomorrow, and that he would arrange a car to pick him up and plan his itinerary. 。Li Zhiping smiled and said, "I'll follow Chen Juzhang's arrangement." 。"It can be seen that Li Zhiping and Chen Guangming's relationship is truly extraordinary." 。Xiao Zheng then said to Chen Guangming: "Director Chen, I hope that tomorrow we can arrange Director Li to come to our county, especially to Tianhuang Town for guidance." 。The prevention and control of tea tree pests and diseases is very urgent. 。Chen Guangming smiled and said, "Xiao Zheng, since you've said that, Director Li will definitely go as soon as possible." 。I will discuss with Director Li later and see how to arrange it reasonably. 。Xiao Zheng said: "Thank you very much" 。Xiao Zheng got up and said goodbye. Chen Guangming added, "Let Chen Hong see you off." 。Chen Hong also stood up: "I'll see you off." 。"Xiao Zheng didn't look at Chen Hong, but looked at Director Li and said, "No need, you stay with Director Li." 。"Director Li smiled and said, "County Mayor Xiao, you don't need to consider me" 。With Director Chen accompanying me and good wine to drink, I'm already very satisfied! On the other hand, you young people should spend more time together. 。What does this imply Xiao Zheng naturally understands it. 。However, in this situation, explaining too much to Li Zhiping would be inappropriate. 。Xiao Zheng had no choice but to let Chen Hong send him. 。Stepping out of the restaurant, I took off my slippers and put on my own shoes. 。Chen Hong said: "This pair of slippers, I will have mom wash and dry them well. Next time you come, you can wear this pair again." 。"Xiao Zheng still couldn't help but glance at her at this time. After drinking, there was a slight flush on her face." 。For some reason, the image of her when they first met suddenly flashed in his mind. 。Back then, among all the college students, her face was like a peeled pear, smooth and white, so white that it seemed to glow, captivating his gaze. 。Xiao Zheng sighed inwardly, looked away, and said, "It's nothing, don't worry about me." 。"Xiao Zheng thought to himself, he wouldn't come to Chen Hong's house if he could help it. " 。He doesn't want to drag things out with Chen Hong. 。He is not good to her. She is not good to him. 。Chen Hong was startled, but didn't say anything more. She followed Xiao Zheng out and walked down the stairs. 。All the other doors in the hallway were closed, and no one was going up or down the stairs. 。Chen Hong suddenly reached out with both arms and grabbed Xiao Zheng, her full chest brushing against his arm. 。This sudden touch made Xiao Zheng move. 。How long had it been since their bodies had touched Xiao Zheng was unclear. 。There was a strange excitement mixed within this sensation. 。Ke Xiaozheng was very clear that there could be no more physical relationship between him and Chen Hong, otherwise, it would be truly a mess that was impossible to untangle. 。Xiao Zheng hurriedly pulled his arm away and said, "Chen Hong, don't do this." 。You know very well that we're no longer boyfriend and girlfriend. 。"Chen Hong bit her lip, staring at him with a look of obsession and recklessness, "I don't think so" 。Xiao Zheng used his other hand to try and pry Chen Hong's hands apart, but she held on tightly. She said: "At the entrance of the community, a new coffee shop opened" 。Would you like to buy me a coffee If so, I'll let go right now. 。Xiao Zheng only hoped Chen Hong would let go of her arms, and then said: "Okay, no problem" 。Let go now. 。"Downstairs, Xiao Zheng looked at his watch. It was only 7:45. He had asked Xiao Zhong to pick him up at 8 o'clock, so he asked, "Which coffee shop" Chen Hong said, "Follow me." 。Our neighborhood street is becoming more and more lively. Many new restaurants, cafes, and tea houses have opened recently. 。So, my parents are also unwilling to move to other places. 。"Xiao Zheng didn't want to talk much, so he just said: "Hmm" 。As expected, about fifty meters to the right of the building complex, there is a cafe called "Buowan" with a rather tasteful storefront. 。This "not late" means it's open all night, right
Xiao Zheng doesn't want anyone to see him with Chen Hong again, so he wants to find a private room. 。He was also worried that once they got to the private room, Chen Hong would become intimate with him again. So when Chen Hong suggested sitting by the window, he didn't object. 。If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear. 。However, across the street, in a window that was not easily noticed, someone was using a high-definition camera, the lens aimed at Chen Hong and Xiao Zheng. 。 ```html
