Chapter 227: Just adapt
When he was about to get off work, Liao Fanmin called Shen Yaling and said that he had to attend the dinner party of the Legislative Affairs Office in the afternoon.
Ren Li was not notified of the afternoon dinner, and before half past five, Ren Li left the typing room and went home with gratitude to Liao Fanmin.
Liao Fanmin did not ask Ren Li how much her monthly salary was, and it was rude to ask these questions when they met for the first time.
When he stood up, Liao Fanmin felt that his legs were a little weak, but he didn't feel so much sadness and fear in his heart.
The moment he stood up, Liao Fanmin suddenly understood that the real way to eliminate the demons in his heart was to face them bravely, rather than blindly avoiding them, he no longer had the possibility of living with Ren Li, there would not be too much intersection between the two, and if he faced all this calmly, he could gradually eliminate his previous frustration and anger.
Liao Fanmin has made a decision in his heart, in the face of Ren Li, he keeps his distance, not far or close, there will be no other contact between the two except for working in the Legislative Affairs Office, of course, if possible, he will still help Ren Li.
As the saying goes, a hundred years of cultivation can be crossed in the same boat, and a thousand years of cultivation can be slept together, between him and Ren Li, no matter what, there is fate, things that have passed, there is no need to be entangled, and Ren Li now, I don't know anything.
Thinking about it carefully, before being reborn, the marriage relationship between the two reached such a bad situation, and he Liao Fanmin also had a certain mistake, he couldn't make money, couldn't give women enough security, and couldn't completely support a family.
Thinking of this, Liao Fanmin's heart felt a little better.
At 5:25, Chen Ping entered the office.
"Xiao Liao, have dinner in the afternoon, you are the protagonist, hurry up and pack your things, we are waiting for you in the cafeteria... ”
Without waiting for Liao Fanmin to speak, Chen Ping turned around and left the office.
There was a rapid sound of high-heeled heels hitting the ground outside, and it seemed that Chen Ping's pace was quite fast.
It wasn't until 5:31, a minute after work, that Liao Fanmin got up and left the office, closed the door, and walked in the direction of the cafeteria.
There are not many people who eat in the canteen in the afternoon.
Chen Ping was waiting for Liao Fanmin at the door of the cafeteria.
"Hurry up, everyone is waiting in the private room. ”
Liao Fanmin followed behind Chen Ping and entered the private room.
The room was cloudy, and all the people sitting were smoking.
Everyone's eyes instantly focused on Liao Fanmin's body.
Liao Fanmin's eyes had been completely swept over, and everyone in the room could see it clearly.
This glance made Liao Fanmin have a huge disappointment, there is no young man, among the six people, two of them are a little bald, they look about fifty years old, one person is full of white hair, it is estimated that they are not less than fifty years old, and there are three people, who look like they should be about forty years old, but the expressions on their faces are a little blank.
The only young person is Chen Ping, and she is also a lesbian.
The march to the march may not have been adjourned, so it has not yet arrived.
At this moment, Liao Fanmin suddenly thought a lot, in the government compound, the Legislative Affairs Office is probably a dispensable unit, and no leader attaches importance to its own work, after all, it is a directly subordinate unit of the government, and it is impossible for such a unit to be without young people, and the six cadres who have not been notified to do things in the government office may be young people from the Legislative Affairs Office, or young people with the ability to work.
The cadres of the organs who remain in the Legislative Affairs Office are either mediocre in their own work ability, or they are old enough to see through the red dust and retire here, or they have bad opportunities and have no future.
Working in such an organization, the pressure felt by young people can be imagined.
People who have not been promoted for a long time, or people who have seen through the red dust, or people who have bad opportunities, are cynical in their hearts, their work attitude cannot be very good, and they show a negative image at work.
It is unfair to say that they are incapable, and it is even more inappropriate to say that they are capable.
Liao Fanmin thought of the kind smile on Xiang Jinjun's face, who knows how much helplessness this smile contains.
Liao Fanmin greeted everyone, Chen Ping helped introduce them on the side, among the six people, four section chiefs, two deputy directors, the white-haired man, and a balding man with glasses were deputy directors, and the rest were section chiefs.
After Chen Ping's introduction, Liao Fanmin felt a little sad again, in the Nanhua Municipal Government compound, he was middle-aged, and he was still the section chief, which could not but be said to be a huge failure.
Liao Fanmin behaved very politely, took out a specially prepared cigarette, and handed the cigarette to everyone, he already felt that these people did not pay much attention to him, and it could even be said that they were indifferent.
More than ten minutes later, Xiang Jinjun entered the private room.
Secretary-General Jin did not come, which was expected by Liao Fanmin, in fact, he did not want to contact too many leaders immediately.
Xiang Jin entered the private room, and everyone just nodded in greeting, but no one stood up.
Xiang Jinjun didn't mind, and asked the waiter to serve the food immediately.
The first glass of wine, Xiang Jinjun raised his glass, and everyone also raised their glasses to welcome Liao Fanmin, except for Chen Ping, the rest of the people were all liquor.
When he drank this glass of wine in one go, Liao Fanmin's mouth had a bitter feeling, he was a little strange, there had never been such a situation before, could it be said that this Moutai wine was fake.
Liao Fanmin is ready, he is a young man, he has just come to the Legislative Affairs Office for an internship, if the leaders and veteran comrades of the unit want to toast him, they must drink it, and the young people must lower their posture, even if they suffer losses.
However, Liao Fanmin thought too much, after the first glass of wine, he was no longer the object of everyone's attention, when everyone raised their glasses, they first toasted Xiang Jinjun, then toasted Chen Ping, then toasted each other, and finally it was his turn, and drinking was not a gesture of drinking in one breath at all, it was all a sip.
Liao Fanmin is not stupid, when he stood up to toast, he held a wine bottle in his hand, and there was not much wine poured in the cup, but the toast was drunk by himself, and the other party was casual.
It is said that wine depends on character, the first time he drank with the people in the Legislative Affairs Office, Liao Fanmin didn't see too many clues, but further felt that Chen Ping's identity was not simple, it should be said that Chen Ping, who was less than 30 years old, was the head of the comprehensive section, and his mind was not on work at all, and the people present didn't have any opinions, and they showed a lot of respect for Chen Ping.
Chen Ping didn't care much about these people, which could be seen from her casual eyes.
The atmosphere of the banquet has not been high, and Xiang Xiang does not seem to have much interest.
In less than an hour, the banquet ended.
If it were on other occasions, Liao Fanmin would definitely be able to think of a way to improve the atmosphere of drinking, but today he would never speak, and at this time he had already decided in his heart that he would not be able to enter the Legislative Affairs Office of the Nanhua Municipal Government in the future.
Such a unit, it's not bad to mess around.
Liao Fanmin didn't drink much, the total amount was less than three taels, and this little wine didn't have much impact.
When he walked out of the cafeteria, everyone quickly dispersed, and Xiang Jinjun walked last, with Liao Fanmin accompanying Xiang Jinjun.
Xiang Jinjun still had a smile on his face and patted Liao Fanmin on the shoulder.
"Xiao Liao, perform well, work hard, I don't think it will take you long to be able to adapt to the work of the agency. ”
"Director Xiang, I will definitely work hard. ”
Xiang Jinjun walked straight in the direction of the government backyard, followed by the accommodation area, it seemed that Xiang Jinjun's home was in the government compound, followed Xiang Jinjun into the backyard, and saw Xiang Jinjun's figure disappear into the building, Liao Fanmin turned around and walked towards the door of the government compound.
When I was about to get to the door, my phone rang.
"Liao, Liao Fanmin, I, I'm at the gate of the middle courtyard, we just had dinner, you come and pick me up. ”
From the phone, Liao Fanmin could feel the strong smell of wine.
Without hesitation, Liao Fanmin trotted to pick up the car.
After paying the parking fee of three yuan, Liao Fanmin started the car and headed in the direction of the Intermediate People's Court.
Shen Yaling sat at the bottom of the ladder of the Municipal Intermediate People's Court, and a middle-aged woman stood beside her.
Seeing Liao Fanmin's car, Shen Yaling's face showed a smile and she stood up vigorously.
The car stopped, and Liao Fanmin got out of the car.
"President Jiang, thank you, my classmate came to pick me up. ”
President Jiang looked at Liao Fanmin with suspicious eyes, and also looked at the car driven by Liao Fanmin.
"Are you Xiao Shen's classmate, you are all studying at the University of South China. ”
"Yes, my name is Liao Fanmin, and I am an intern at the Legislative Affairs Office of the Municipal Government. ”
"Oh, you're an intern at the Legislative Affairs Office, so you're also from the Law Department. ”
"President Jiang, Liao Fanmin's academic performance is better than mine, and he is an excellent student every year, and Liao Fanmin has taken criminal law and procedural law, civil law and economic law, and all the exams are excellent... ”
Shen Yaling's introduction made President Jiang even more surprised.
"It's a pity, why didn't such a talent come to the middle courtyard for an internship, okay, Xiao Shen, my classmates are here, I'm relieved." ”
"President Jiang, let's send you home first. ”
"No, I'm on a bike. ”
When he got in the car, Liao Fanmin could still feel the strong smell of alcohol on Shen Yaling's body.
"Shen Yaling, why do you drink so much wine. ”
"Everyone wants to toast me, but President Jiang blocked it later, otherwise I don't know what it looks like. ”
"There is no way to do it the first time, and it should be noted later that the work does not have much to do with it, and the body is your own. ”
"Well, I remember. ”
