This time, Zhao Changbin did not take them to Yongyun Iron and Steel Plant for dinner, but ate at the Baihualin Hotel, which has the best conditions in the county.

Since they didn't drink much at noon, they would definitely have to drink a little more at night, so Zhao Changbin and his party would definitely live in Liulin today.

At this point, Zhang Yungang must do his best to be a landlord.

Although the conditions of eating and entertainment are OK, but the conditions of accommodation are really not flattering, it is not that the facilities of the room are too backward, but the environment here is not good, it can be said that it is complicated, considering that there are two girls here, it is definitely not suitable.

So, Zhang Yungang asked Yang Mingyu to go to the small guest house of the county party committee to book a few rooms for them.

Zhang Yungang has seen the world, and in his opinion, the room conditions of the small guest house of the county party committee are not very good, and it is enough to entertain ordinary guests, but to entertain guests from some big places, especially in the environment of attracting investment, if there are big businessmen from the south, or even Hong Kong-funded and foreign-funded enterprises come here to investigate, if there is not even a better hotel, I am afraid it will leave a very bad impression on people.

Zhang Yungang believes that if Liulin County wants to attract investment, it must first grasp the urban construction of Liulin County, and at least build a three-star hotel.

However, Zhang Yungang is only a town party secretary, not a county party secretary and county magistrate, so it is useless for him to have this idea.

In the evening, after their group finished eating at the White Birch Forest Hotel, they went upstairs to open a large box to sing.

Li Xiaolu sat next to Chen Qingdong and asked, "Qingdong, do you want to sing a song together?" ”

"Forget it, there are too many protagonists today, so I won't join in the fun." Chen Qingdong said.

Li Xiaolu was silent for a moment and said, "Qingdong, I found that you have changed a lot now. ”

"Yes, after all, I have entered the society, and I have come into contact with different things." Chen Qingdong said with a smile.

"It's different."

"What's the difference?"

"I think...... You don't look like the same person you used to be. Li Xiaolu said carefully.

"Really?" Chen Qingdong looked at Li Xiaolu with a smile, "Tell me why I don't look like the same person." ”

Li Xiaolu thought about it again, then sighed lightly and said, "I can't say it either, anyway, I feel different." But I've always admired you, I used to admire you, and I admire you now. ”

Chen Qingdong said with a smile: "Xiaolu, you are a big reporter of the provincial newspaper, I am a civil servant in a small township, the influence of your pen is not even able to catch up, do you still admire me?" I admire you pretty much. ”

Li Xiaolu said angrily: "Flim tongue! You know what I'm talking about. ”

Looking at Li Xiaolu's serious look, Chen Qingdong was embarrassed to joke anymore, sighed for a while, and said, "I'm sorry, Xiaolu, I'm joking with you." ”

"Let's go out for a walk, it's too noisy here." Li Xiaolu proposed.

"yes, okay." Chen Qingdong said.

When Chen Qingdong took his coat from the coat rack, he was also very considerate to help Li Xiaolu take off the coat, handed it to her, and said, "Put on the coat, it's windy outside this time." ”

Li Xiaolu smiled at Chen Qingdong and took the clothes.

The two walked out of the White Birch Forest Hotel, and sure enough, the north wind was blowing outside, although Li Xiaolu was wearing a wool coat, but she was only wearing a thin sweater inside, so she was still shivering a little from the cold, and subconsciously wrapped her clothes tightly.

"Cold, huh? Otherwise, let's go inside. Chen Qingdong said.

Li Xiaolu shook his head and said, "No, let's take a walk outside, I drank a little dizzy just now, just to blow the cold wind to wake up." ”

Seeing Li Xiaolu's very cold appearance, Chen Qingdong immediately wanted to take off his coat and put it on her, but he immediately dispelled this idea.

Now, he has made up his mind that he can't have anything to do with Li Xiaolu anymore, so don't do anything ambiguous.

Chen Qingdong sighed softly in his heart, pointed to the street corner in front of him and said, "Then let's go and stand over there, the wind is a little lighter over there." ”

Li Xiaolu seemed to be waiting for Chen Qingdong to put on her coat, but Chen Qingdong didn't do it, which made Li Xiaolu a little disappointed, so she said in a faint voice: "Okay." ”

The two stood on the corner of a street, watching a young man riding a bicycle in the cold wind with a girl pedaling hard, the girl hugged the boy's waist tightly, although this is a picture that makes people look a little sad, but the girl faced Chen Qingdong and Li Xiaolu's face with a happy smile, and the two of them also communicated something from time to time, because of the strong wind, the two of them spoke loudly, sometimes even shouted, but the two enjoyed this feeling very much, From time to time, there was a burst of laughter.

Li Xiaolu watched them ride their bicycles away slowly with some distraction, and then said to Chen Qingdong: "Qingdong, in the past, I longed for love like them. ”

"And now?" Chen Qingdong asked.

"Now? Now I don't dare to expect love anymore, love is a luxury. Li Xiaolu looked at the distant backs of the couple riding bicycles and said faintly.

"Xiaolu, I'm sorry."

"Why do you say that?"

"We're not people of the same world after all."

"Really? I don't think there's any difference between us. ”

Chen Qingdong was silent, he knew that he didn't need to say too much, he could only appear hypocritical if he said too much.

Li Xiaolu turned his head to Chen Qingdong and said: "Qingdong, you don't have to be pressured, and you don't have to feel sorry for me, I told you a long time ago, I don't care about eternity, I only care about what I once had." Actually, because of family reasons, I didn't believe in love at all before, but after I met you, I felt that I was tempted, but you rejected it. ”

Chen Qingdong lowered his head slightly and was silent.

Li Xiaolu said again: "Qingdong, I know you have a girlfriend, I didn't want you to break up with your girlfriend, and then stay with me, or even get married." Actually, I'm not one who doesn't want to get married at all. I just wanted to leave a story that I will never forget. In the future, I may travel the world alone, or go to a place where no one knows me and live in seclusion. ”

Chen Qingdong didn't know what to say, so he sighed softly and said, "Xiaolu, can I smoke a cigarette?" ”

"Okay." Li Xiaolu said, "You smoke, I don't exclude others from smoking, in fact, I think men have a lot of taste when they smoke." ”

After Chen Qingdong lit a cigarette, he thought to himself that I was a down-to-earth person, but Li Xiaolu was a person flying in mid-air. She likes me now, but she actually still likes the fairytale world in her fantasy, but she is destined to not give Li Xiaolu the kind of life she wants.

Li Xiaolu glanced at Chen Qingdong lightly, and said, "Don't think about it so much, let's just go with the flow and be friends, isn't it?" ”

Chen Qingdong smoked a cigarette silently for a while, and finally did not answer this question, and said, "Xiaolu, let's go back, it's too cold here." ”

"Kiss me." Li Xiaolu looked at Chen Qingdong with strong eyes and said.

"Xiaolu ......"

"Kiss me."

Looking at Li Xiaolu's dark and shining eyes in the dim light, Chen Qingdong said no at all.

The place where Chen Qingdong and the others stayed was a remote street corner, the light was very dim, and it was a windy weather, and there were no people around at all.

But Chen Qingdong still used the corner of his eye to quickly sweep around, and then stepped forward, hugged Li Xiaolu, and kissed Li Xiaolu's mouth.

Chen Qingdong obviously felt a throbbing on Li Xiaolu's body, and then he felt a sharp pain in his lips, it was Li Xiaolu's teeth that bit Chen Qingdong's lips fiercely!

Chen Qingdong snorted, his lips separated from Li Xiaolu, and then he felt a salty taste, obviously his lips were bitten by Li Xiaolu.

Li Xiaolu looked at Chen Qingdong, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said, "This is the price you paid for not coming to me for so long." ”

Chen Qingdong had to smile bitterly, spit on the ground, and couldn't say anything.

Li Xiaolu said with some concern at this time: "Qingdong, how is it, didn't you bite your lip?" ”

"It's fine." Chen Qingdong smiled bitterly, "My lips are very strong, and they can't be bitten." ”

"Really? Then try another bite? ”

"Eh, Xiaolu, I beg for mercy."

"For the sake of your good attitude, I'll spare you this time!" Li Xiaolu said with satisfaction, "However, do you dare not see me for so long next time?" ”

Regarding this question, Chen Qingdong knew that he couldn't fight anymore, and he had to make it clear to Li Xiaolu, which was good for everyone.

But when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say them. In the end, he said: "Xiaolu, as long as I have time, I will go to see you." ”

Li Xiaolu said unrelentingly: "Time is squeezed out, and you can't delay much time when you go to see me, what matters is your attitude." You just say you don't have this attitude, right? ”

Seeing Li Xiaolu looking so serious, Chen Qingdong opened his mouth twice, and finally joked: "Xiaolu, aren't you afraid of losses?" ”

Originally, Chen Qingdong thought that Li Xiaolu would definitely hit him twice, or joke with himself, but he didn't expect that Li Xiaolu would look him in the eye and say, "I'm not afraid of losses, are you afraid?" ”

At this moment, looking at the extremely strong and beautiful Li Xiaolu, Chen Qingdong's heart suddenly rose with an inexplicable emotion, and he said to himself in his heart, damn, although he is determined to be a career, he should not be a stone man, if he has to take a little risk, it is Li Xiaolu!

He stretched out his hand and touched Li Xiaolu's face, and said, "You're not afraid, what am I afraid of?" ”
