In addition to making up his mind to catch up with Chu Mingyuan's connections, Chen Qingdong began to plan to get in touch with Chu Mingyuan as soon as possible, and it was best to go to the province to participate in the young cadre training program, because Chu Mingyuan came out of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, if he could get some help from Chu Mingyuan in such a grand event, then it would definitely be of great help!

After returning to the unit, Chen Qingdong called Chen Lu. [Latest chapter reading.]

Chen Lu came to his office, Chen Qingdong poured Chen Lu a glass of water as usual, and said, "Mayor Chen, how are the propaganda preparations going?"

Chen Lu didn't answer this question directly, but held the cup, pursed her lips and smiled, and asked, "Secretary Chen, everyone who comes to your office, will you personally pour a cup for whom?"

Chen Qingdong joked: "This is not necessarily, it has to be someone as weighty as Mayor Chen to come over, and I will pour the water myself." ”

"So that's the case, I thought Secretary Chen treated everyone equally!" Chen Lu teased with a smile.

Chen Qingdong couldn't help but think that Chen Lu was really becoming more and more casual when he talked to himself now, and he joked with himself at every turn, as if he was tempting himself, which was not a good phenomenon.

Chen Qingdong coughed dryly, didn't pick up the stubble, and asked, "Have you contacted Professor Chen?"

Chen Lu saw that Chen Qingdong didn't mean to talk nonsense with him, so he had no choice but to talk about business: "I have already contacted Professor Chen, he is very supportive of our plan, and he also said that he will help as much as possible." ”

"Does Professor Chen have any plans to come back soon?"

"This is enough to choke, Professor Chen was sick and hospitalized a while ago, and he has just returned home to recuperate. ”

"Sick?

"Professor Chen didn't say it explicitly on the phone, but I listened to him with a lot of Zhongqi, it shouldn't be a serious disease, maybe it's a common disease for the elderly. ”

"That's ......"

Chen Qingdong calculated in his heart, Chen Zhongning's illness is an opportunity for him, from the previous contact with Chen Zhongning, Chen Qingdong can feel that Chen Zhongning is a temperamental person who is very emotional, if he goes to visit Chen Zhongning this time, and then tells him about Chenqiao Middle School, it will definitely make Chen Zhongning very happy, and then find a suitable opportunity, point out and ask him to help connect him with Chu Mingyuan, as long as he grasps the degree in between, Chu Mingyuan should not refuse!

At this time, Chen Lu also happened to mention: "Secretary Chen, in order to let Professor Chen better contribute to the publicity of our Chenqiao Middle School, I am going to go to Jingjiang to visit Professor Chen in the next few days, what do you think?"

Chen Lu's proposal can be said to be in the hands of Chen Qingdong, but Chen Qingdong deliberately teased: "Mayor Chen, of course you should go to visit Professor Chen, but you said that it is to better promote our Chenqiao Middle School, and the motive is a bit impure!"

Chen Lu said with a smile: "That's what it is, in front of Secretary Chen, I tell the truth about everything, and I don't dare to hide anything!"

Chen Qingdong said with a smile: "This shows that Mayor Chen, your party spirit is firm enough!"

"Of course!" Chen Lu's eyes were swirling, and he asked again, "Secretary Chen, can you go with me to Jingjiang to visit Professor Chen? If I go alone, the weight is too low, I'm afraid the effect will not be good." If Professor Chen misunderstands and thinks that we don't pay attention to this matter, I'm afraid it will be counterproductive, and if you can also go, the effect will be much better!"

Chen Qingdong had actually made up his mind to go, but after listening to Chen Lu's "invitation," he deliberately said: "Our party committee and government have appointed Mayor Chen as a representative to go to Jingjiang to visit Professor Chen, is it too low? Professor Chen is an unruly person, even if you go by yourself, he will definitely be very moved!"

Chen Lu still begged unrelentingly: "Secretary Chen, you can go with me!" I haven't had any contact with Professor Chen before, and besides, I'm a woman, and I don't know what to say after seeing Professor Chen, it's easy to be cold, if you are willing to go, then there is no problem." Besides, Jingjiang is not far away, let's drive there in the morning and come back in the afternoon, without delay, okay?"

Chen Lu is right, Jingjiang is not far away, the highway has been repaired, there is absolutely no problem to drive back and forth for a day, but Chen Qingdong still deliberately made a look of embarrassment and said: "Mayor Chen, I also want to go to Jingjiang, but you also know that the work of prevention and control is so important now, according to the requirements of the county, I must sit in the unit, even if I go out for a day, I have to ask the county for leave." ”

Chen Lu said disappointedly: "Secretary Chen, why don't you ask the county for a leave of absence?"

Chen Qingdong smiled lightly and said: "Okay, then I'll ask for a leave to try first, if I can ask for leave, I'll go with you, if you can't ask for leave, then I can only trouble Mayor Chen to run alone!"

Chen Lu was very disappointed in her heart, she felt that Chen Qingdong said this just to find an excuse for not wanting to go to Jingjiang, and it was estimated that the possibility of Chen Qingdong not going to Jingjiang was already very high! But Chen Lu had no choice, she couldn't force Chen Qingdong to go with her, so she had to say: "Okay, Secretary Chen, then I will listen to your news, but you must try to ask for leave!"

Chen Qingdong said with a smile: "Okay, I will definitely try my best to ask for leave! Mayor Chen, you will ask the office to prepare some souvenirs for Professor Chen when you go to Jingjiang." ”

"I see. Chen Lu responded, then stood up and said, "Secretary Chen, then I'll go out first." If you're sure you're going or not, you have to let me know as soon as possible!"

Chen Qingdong said with a smile: "Okay! As long as it's confirmed, I'll notify you immediately!"

After Chen Lu walked out of Chen Qingdong's office, her mood was very complicated, and she couldn't help but secretly think to herself, is it really not okay to go to Jingjiang to visit Professor Chen alone? Is it because she wants Chen Qingdong to go to Jingjiang with her because of work, or because she wants to stay with him?

Did he really like Chen Qingdong, a man a few years younger than him?

Thinking of this, Chen Lu's face was a little feverish, and her heart was beating even harder, she couldn't help but compare Chen Qingdong with her husband Zhang Yulong, and then she found that no matter which direction she compared, Zhang Yulong was 108,000 miles behind Chen Qingdong!

Zhang Yulong's only advantage is that he is the son of the director of the Finance Bureau and the nephew of the head of the Organization Department, and he is also a ** in Liulin County, but Zhang Yunlong's advantage is really nothing in front of Chen Qingdong, who has a prosperous career and has won the trust of the county party secretary!

Thinking of this, Chen Lu couldn't help but secretly lament that in order to get rid of fate, he married Zhang Yulong with grievances, although he did use Zhang Yulong's family background to get some rewards, but now it seems that he was too young and too short-sighted!

If he could be a few years younger and know Chen Qingdong a few years earlier, then he would definitely do his best to chase Chen Qingdong and get such a wishful man, how good it would be!

It's really "I was born before I was born, and I am old when I was born"!

Chen Lu was secretly sad to herself, and Chen Fei, deputy secretary of the party committee, walked over from the opposite side with a stack of materials, and saw that Chen Lu's face was very bad, and he looked in a trance, so he asked: "Mayor Chen, what's wrong with you, are you okay?"

Chen Lu raised his head and saw that it was Chen Fei, so he quickly put away his thoughts, smiled awkwardly, and said, "It's okay! It's okay! Hehe, Secretary Chen, where are you going?"

Chen Fei gestured to Chen Qingdong's office with his chin, and said with a smile: "Where else can I go, there is only Secretary Chen's office inside, of course, to find Secretary Chen." Hehe, I really feel a little embarrassed to say this, in our unit, 'Chen' is definitely a big surname, who called us Chen Qiao here, Mayor Chen, are you right?"

Chen Lu was not in the mood to joke with Chen Fei, so she smiled faintly and said, "Yes." ”

Since Chen Fei became the deputy secretary of the party committee, his interest has always been very high, and when he saw Chen Lu's appearance, he leaned closer to Chen Lu and joked: "Mayor Chen, I don't think your complexion is very good!

In fact, in the township, it is really a normal thing for male and female colleagues to make such meat jokes with each other, it is harmless, and no one will take it seriously.

However, after Chen Lu listened to Chen Fei's joke, she was obviously stunned for a moment, then frowned, and said unceremoniously: "Secretary Chen, you will make less jokes like this in the future!"

Chen Fei couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, he really didn't expect Chen Lu to be angry, but he reacted quickly, and immediately apologized with a hippie smile: "Hehe, I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Mayor Chen, don't be angry, it's just a joke, nothing else!"

Chen Lu also felt that she was a little more serious at this time, and said embarrassedly: "Secretary Chen, then you are busy, I still have something to do, so I will leave first." ”

"Okay, okay, you go slowly!" Chen Fei said.

After watching Chen Lu's back disappear from the corner of the stairs in front of him, Chen Fei said to himself: "It's really nerve-wracking, just kidding, what are you angry about, it's not a big girl who is not married!"

At this time, Gao Bo, the secretary of the party committee, walked out of a nearby office, and Chen Fei hurriedly asked: "Gao Bo, did Secretary Chen Lu discipline Chen just now? Why do I think she is so unhappy?"

Gao Bo shook his head and said: "I don't know, Mayor Chen hasn't been talking for long in Secretary Chen's office, it's been less than ten minutes, I didn't hear Secretary Chen speak loudly!

Chen Fei let out an "oh" and said, "It's nothing, hehe." ”
