When they heard Lu Tao and Chen Pei joking with each other affectionately, Li Zitong and Yuan Cheng glanced at each other again, and a knowing smile appeared on their faces: It seems that this little fellow Lu Tao is indeed very close to Deputy Secretary Chen's daughter, judging from their conversation just now, which is a bit similar to flirting, maybe they will really become a pair of lovers......

After Lu Tao made a few jokes with Chen Pei, he moved his body slightly sideways, let Li Zitong face Chen Pei, and introduced Chen Pei to Li Zitong in accordance with official etiquette: "Director Li, this is my classmate from university, named Chen Pei, is the leader of the rural group of the Budget Department of the Provincial Department of Finance. ”

Li Zitong hurriedly took a step forward, stretched out his palm to shake hands with Chen Pei warmly, and said with a smile: "Hello Team Leader Chen, I am Li Zitong, a member of the party group and deputy director of the Provincial Local Taxation Bureau, and Li Tao of your budget department is my nephew." Li Tao has praised you many times in front of me, saying that you not only have strong work ability and high business level, but also gentle and intellectual, noble conduct, and are a real lady.

Chen Pei saw that he kept praising himself through Li Tao's mouth, but he never mentioned that he had asked Li Tao to invite him to dinner many times, knowing that he was afraid of losing face in front of his subordinates, he didn't break him, and replied with a smile: "It's an honor to know Director Li, and thank Deputy Director Li for his praise to me, next time I have the opportunity to go to the Provincial Local Taxation Bureau with Deputy Director Li to do things, I will definitely visit you in your office!"

Li Zitong couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard Chen Pei say that he would go to the office with Li Tao next time to visit him, and he couldn't care about maintaining his identity and reserve in front of his subordinates, so he said with bright eyes: "Really? Then I'm really honored! If Team Leader Chen really comes to my office, there is nothing else, a good cup of tea will definitely be made for you, hahaha!"

Then, he turned around and pointed at Yuan Cheng with his finger, and introduced: "This is Director Yuan Cheng Yuan of the Supervision Office of the Provincial Local Taxation Bureau, we are all your classmate Lu Tao's Qingxi fellow villagers, it is a fate that everyone can get together today, but unfortunately I can't drink with him at noon, otherwise I really want to toast Team Leader Chen with a few glasses of wine." ”

According to official duties and social etiquette, it should be the introducer who introduces the juniors to the elders and the subordinates to the superiors, but Li Zitong and Yuan Cheng take Chen Pei as a "superior" and "honored guest" in their hearts at the moment, so Li Zitong first introduced Yuan Cheng, who is at the department level, to Chen Pei, who is at the department level, and Yuan Cheng does not feel wronged, and happily takes a step forward, warmly shakes hands with Chen Pei, and also says a lot of compliments......

When Chen Pei shook hands with Li Zitong and Yuan Cheng and chatted, Lin Hua kept staring at Chen Pei, and his eyes gradually revealed a look of surprise and envy - in his mind, the daughter of the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee who is almost twenty-five years old and has not yet found a partner is either very ugly, or has a rough and eccentric temper that makes men unbearable, otherwise it is unreasonable.

However, from the first time he saw Chen Pei, he felt that his judgment was really ridiculous: although Chen Pei's appearance cannot be said to be very beautiful, he is tall and well-proportioned, with smart facial features, generous and decent clothes, especially a pair of clear and clear eyes, which are impressive and unforgettable......

What especially surprised Lin Hua was: as a high-ranking official's daughter, Chen Pei did not have the slightest trace of delicateness, her speech and demeanor were gentle and kind, she was polite to others, and she showed a charming intellectual beauty everywhere, looking very educated and beautiful, and she was definitely not the kind of high-ranking official daughter who was reserved and indifferent, or proud and arrogant in her impression......

When he was staring at Chen Pei blankly, Chen Pei had already walked over, and Lu Tao hurriedly introduced: "Pei Pei, this is the Lin section chief I introduced to you, named Lin Hua." ”

Chen Pei stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Hello Section Chief Lin, I have heard Lu Tao mention you many times, and I am honored to meet you!"

Lin Hua woke up like a dream, grabbed her outstretched palm a little hurriedly, and said with a red face: "Hello Team Leader Chen, I also feel honored to know you!"

Chen Pei frowned slightly when he saw him holding his hand tightly, but the smile on his face did not decrease, and while gently pulling his palm back, he turned his head and said to Li Zitong and Yuan Cheng with a smile: "Director Li, Director Yuan, please call me Pei Pei like Lu Tao, or call me Xiao Chen, the title of Team Leader Chen is really bad, it sounds a little awkward." ”

Li Zitong and Yuan Cheng hurriedly smiled and nodded in agreement.

After entering the box, Li Zitong wanted Chen Pei to sit on the "honored seat" facing the door of the box, but Chen Pei shirked and said, "Director Li, how can this be done? Please sit on the top with Director Yuan, and I will sit with Lu Tao." ”

Li Zitong saw that Chen Pei was a girl who abided by the rules, talked about etiquette, and abided by principles, and categorically would not sit on the "honored position", and she took the initiative to say that she wanted to sit with Lu Tao, but Lu Tao was a cadre in the system, and there were provincial bureau leaders present today, and he would never dare to sit on the opposite side of the "main seat", so he no longer shirked, and walked over with Yuan Cheng, and the two occupied the two middle positions opposite, Chen Pei and Lu Tao sat next to each other on the right side of Li Zitong, and Lin Hua sat on the left side of Yuan Cheng.

After settling down, Chen Pei suddenly picked up a bag of clothes she had been carrying, took out a white shirt from it, and said to Lu Tao: "This is a shirt I just bought for you in the mall, you go to the next box now to try to see if it fits, if it doesn't fit, we will change it after eating." ”

Lu Tao knew that she had just gotten out of the car and went to the mall to buy clothes for herself, and she was both moved and a little embarrassed, and subconsciously glanced at Li Zitong, Yuan Cheng and Lin Hua, who were full of curiosity, and said with a red face: "It's going to be served soon, I'll try on clothes after eating!"

Chen Pei said stubbornly: "You can try it now, come and show me after the change, if it doesn't look good or doesn't fit, we can go to the mall immediately after eating to change it." ”

Lu Tao had no choice but to take the dress and go to a box next door where there were no guests to change clothes.

When Li Zitong and Yuan Cheng saw this scene, they were completely convinced: Deputy Secretary Chen's baby daughter is definitely in love with Lu Tao, otherwise, it would be impossible for her to take the initiative to buy clothes for a boy, let alone force Lu Tao to change clothes in front of so many people, this kind of behavior can only happen between lovers......

Thinking of this, their faces showed expressions of joy and excitement: Lu Tao is a cadre of the local taxation system and a native of Qingxi County, as long as he is close to him and takes care of him, he can win Chen Pei's favor, and it is also the best shortcut to get close to Deputy Secretary Chen to save time and effort......
