Chapter 862: Promise
Chen Qingdong was stunned when he heard this condition put forward by Li Xiaolu, because it was really difficult for him to avoid this matter. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
First of all, although he, the secretary of the town party committee, has not yet reached the level of being strictly restricted from going abroad, he has to report to his superiors when he goes abroad for private purposes, and the approval process is also troublesome, and Xu Minglei will not give him approval easily.
Secondly, Zhang Meng was about to come back as soon as he was persuaded by himself, and if he went abroad for private purposes at this time, he would not be able to explain it to Zhang Meng.
Third, Chen Qiao's work is too heavy in his heart, especially when the SARS epidemic is about to break out, he can't rest assured that he will work in the town! If he goes abroad at this time, even if he is accompanied by beautiful women every day, then he will definitely live like a year, and he can't wait to fly back to preside over the work immediately!
For Chen Qingdong, working hard to seek improvement has made him almost obsessive-compulsive.
So, Chen Qingdong smiled bitterly and said: "Xiaolu, I am working in the agency now, and if I want to go abroad, I am not so free, I have to ask for instructions from the top and report at all levels. Xiaolu, why don't you change your conditions? ā
Li Xiaolu saw that Chen Qingdong was using work as a shield, so he also said in the same way: "Alas, Qingdong, you can't leave because of work, and I can't go against the arrangement of the newspaper either!" Although I don't work in an agency, I don't really have any freedom. ā
As soon as Chen Qingdong heard Li Xiaolu say this, he knew that she didn't actually have to let herself accompany her abroad, but she was just deliberately looking for a problem to embarrass herself!
To put it bluntly, Li Xiaolu is still making a little temperament!
Thinking of this, Chen Qingdong no longer took this issue seriously, but changed the word "coax" and said: "Xiaolu, I promise you that I will accompany you abroad when I find an opportunity in the future, okay?" However, not for this time, at least not until this winter. It's not just because of my work, it's because the infectious disease you're going to interview is very serious and it's going to break out soon! During this time, we all have to stay in places with few people, try to avoid going to densely populated places, and if it is not particularly necessary, then we must not take planes or trains! So, Xiaolu, listen to me this time, don't go to the interview, can you come back? ā
Li Xiaolu saw that Chen Qingdong was talking so seriously, not like he was joking, so he also put away his little emotions and said curiously: "Qingdong, you seem to know this infectious disease very well?" ā
"That's right! I do know a lot about this contagion! ā
"We haven't heard much about this yet, right? How did you know that well? ā
"Anyway, I have my own source of information, and I can't tell you clearly on the phone. Xiaolu, you just listen to me this time, don't go to Guangzhou, come back quickly, is it done? ā
"Qingdong, I don't think this source of yours is necessarily accurate, right? This infectious disease has been a bit powerful in Guangzhou recently, and some time ago it also caused citizens to panic and rush to buy goods, but the official has refuted the rumors about this matter, it should not be as powerful as you said! I heard what you said, when I went to Guangzhou for an interview this time, it was like going to the Longtan Tiger's Den? It's just a contagion, you're exaggerating. ā
Chen Qingdong was a little anxious and said: "Xiaolu, some time ago, the Guangzhou official refuted the rumor that there would be a sufficient supply of salt, edible oil, etc., so as not to let the citizens panic buy, but they didn't say that the infectious disease was not serious this time!" Xiaolu, let me tell you the truth, this epidemic is very serious, much more serious than you think! You just listen to me and come back quickly, won't you? ā
Li Xiaolu saw that Chen Qingdong was talking so seriously, so he asked, "Qingdong, what else do you know?" Who told you these news? ā
Chen Qingdong was a little helpless, he knew that with Li Xiaolu's more serious character, if he couldn't tell her a source of information that could convince her, I was afraid that she wouldn't believe her words, so after thinking about it, he said nonsense: "Okay, Xiaolu, I'll tell you the truth, this matter was told to me privately by a friend of mine who works in the Ministry of Health!" He said that the actual situation of this pulmonary infectious disease that broke out from Guangzhou this time is very serious! The disease is highly contagious, has a high mortality rate, and is extremely difficult to control! Now, this infectious disease is spreading to the whole country in an uncontrollable manner, especially in the southeast coastal areas! So, Xiaolu, listen to me and come back quickly! ā
After listening to this, Li Xiaolu also changed her serious tone and asked, "Qingdong, what you said is true?" ā
Chen Qingdong said anxiously: "What am I lying to you for?" ā
Li Xiaolu was silent again.
Chen Qingdong held the mobile phone, his heart was beating violently, he subconsciously felt that Li Xiaolu might not listen to his words, and obediently returned to Huaihai, because Li Xiaolu is a girl who is too self-conscious and too idea-conscious! In the face of key issues, it is difficult for her to be swayed by others, but will choose to stick to her inner thoughts!
And this is the biggest difference between her and Zhang Meng in terms of personality!
Chen Qingdong believes that although Zhang Meng is also a girl who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, she can especially listen to her own words when facing key problems. Just like this time, after he called Zhang Meng and asked her to come back, although she was reluctant to do so at first, she finally obediently listened to herself.
As for Li Xiaolu, Chen Qingdong was really not sure, he felt that it was difficult for him to control Li Xiaolu.
This made Chen Qingdong, who had a strong desire to control, feel very anxious!
At this moment, Chen Qing** thought again, did he reject Li Xiaolu and choose Zhang Meng at the beginning, was it related to this factor?
Li Xiaolu was silent on the phone for twenty or thirty seconds, and when Chen Qingdong almost lost his patience, Li Xiaolu finally spoke: "Qingdong, after hearing you talk about these situations, I think I should go to the scene." ā
Chen Qingdong almost vomited blood when he heard this, but he seemed to subconsciously feel that Li Xiaolu would definitely do this, otherwise, she would not be the Li Xiaolu he knew!
Li Xiaolu continued: "Qingdong, I know that there will definitely be danger where I go, but I have to go!" Kyungdong, I know you'll understand me, thank you for caring so much about me. ā
Chen Qingdong had to sigh and said helplessly: "Xiaolu, in fact, I guessed that you would do this at the beginning. Well, I respect your choice. However, there is one thing, you must promise me that after you go to Guangzhou, you must protect yourself, wear a mask at all times, and put your safety first at an important juncture! Xiaolu, can you promise me this? ā
"Qingdong, I can, I promise you."
"Okay, Xiaolu, remember what I told you, I'll call you anytime."
Li Xiaolu was silent for a few more seconds before changing her relaxed tone and said, "Don't worry, Qingdong, I will definitely come back alive to see you!" Also, you promised me one thing, right? ā
Chen Qingdong couldn't help but be a little big again, and said with a wry smile: "As long as you don't let me accompany you abroad." ā
"Hehe, don't worry, I won't let you accompany me abroad this time! Actually, I was just kidding you, I know it's not so convenient for you to go abroad. ā
"Hehe, then what are your conditions this time?"
Li Xiaolu said with a smile: "This time it's relatively simple, I'll let you accompany me back to Huaida, visit the campus, eat in the canteen, and then go to the gymnasium to play sports and badminton." If I'm interested, I can go dancing, and when the time comes, I'll reluctantly let you be my dance partner! You don't dance very well, but I have patience. Well, it's not too difficult to ask for this time, right? ā
"Well, I can overcome this difficulty, and I also thank Miss Li for her love and patience!" Chen Qingdong also laughed, and then said with a straight face, "Xiaolu, I promise you, when you come back, let's go to Huaida and relive our school life." This should be regarded as an agreement between us, and no one is allowed to miss the appointment! ā
Li Xiaolu also said seriously: "Okay, I will remember this agreement!" ā
After making a phone call with Li Xiaolu, Chen Qingdong's mood was a little inexplicable, he looked back at the hall of the sales office, and saw Guo Fengjuan and Zhang Yu, mother and son, were talking to a sales lady, and Wang Fang was still sitting in the seat just now, seemingly a little distracted, not knowing what he was thinking.
Chen Qingdong thought about his friends in other places again, so he took out his mobile phone and called Luo Xiaolou, Zhao Changbin, Jiang Xiaoqing and others, asking them to pay attention to safety and try not to go out, let alone go to crowded places.
However, everyone's general awareness of this matter is not high, so except for Jiang Xiaoqing, who listened to Chen Qingdong's words very much, most of the others thanked Chen Qingdong for his concern, and at the same time, they ridiculed Chen Qingdong, saying that this was just an ordinary infectious disease, and Chen Qingdong was really a little fussed.
After these phone calls, Zhang Yu also walked out of the sales office, and shouted happily as soon as he went out: "Qingdong, who are you calling?" How did you fight for so long? ā
Chen Qingdong smiled and said, "I'll call Mengmeng, she's going to come back in the next few days." ā
"She's coming back now? Nothing happened, right? Zhang Yu asked.
Chen Qingdong didn't want to talk about it, so he said perfunctorily: "It's nothing, hehe......"
Zhang Yu was also not interested in this topic, and said happily: "We have taken a good look at a few houses, you can come and check it." ā
"Really? Okay, I'll take a look......" Chen Qingdong said as he followed Zhang Yu in.
After entering the sales hall, Guo Fengjuan also smiled and picked up a floor plan and handed it to Chen Qingdong, saying, "Qingdong, how about you come and take a look at these houses?" ā
