"Xue Guoping......" Li Xiaoning rubbed his nose lightly, and his eyes showed a wise light: "It's not easy to deal with." In any case, it is not easy to deal with such an enemy! ”

It's not easy! In Li Xiaoning's expectation, if Xue Guoping hadn't died by himself, it would have been difficult for him to bring down Xue Guoping in the short term. After all, the officialdom game is not only about ability, but also about their respective backgrounds and networks, as well as intricate balance relationships. When the official reaches Xue Guoping's level, it is by no means just one or two pieces of evidence of corruption and bribery or some nude photos and videos that can make him fall.

Therefore, it is definitely extremely difficult to knock down Xue Guoping in the officialdom, but the evidence collected from Huang Zhen's house is still very powerful, if Xue Guoping messes up and does something out of the ordinary, he may still have a chance to kill this Mayor Xue.

In short, it will take a long time to completely defeat Xue Guoping and even the supporters behind him, and Li Xiaoning must wait patiently like a hunter for the other party to reveal a fatal flaw.

However, at present, Li Xiaoning has not taken the contradiction with Xue Guoping as an urgent matter, and the top priority now is to talk about the cooperation with Sofitel Group first.

The next day, the plane of the Sofitel delegation landed at the Marina Airport. In order to welcome this delegation, the city also put up a luxurious lineup, Xue Guoping, secretary of the municipal party committee, personally led the team, and the leaders of the four sets of teams also arrived at 7788, and the development zone is the secretary Zhang Yuqiang, the district mayor Zhang Hui, as well as the deputy secretary and executive deputy mayor, of course, Li Xiaoning is also indispensable.

The grand welcome dinner was held in the grand banquet hall of the International Convention and Exhibition Center, and all the famous people in the city came.

Originally, Li Xiaoning was just a small assistant to the district head, and he didn't have a chance to go to the first table, but this matter can be said to be his Zhang Luo from beginning to end, and he is the most familiar with Jenny among the people, so no matter whether some people want to or not, there is still a place for Li Xiaoning at the head table.

For a VIP like Jenny, the wine is naturally the best, so it is Moutai that is directly brought to the table. When the waiter poured the wine in front of Jenny, Jenny stopped it with her hand and said in fluent Chinese: "Thank you, I will get drunk when I drink." ”

Li Xiaoning knew that the habit of Westerners was not to drink high spirits at this kind of banquet, so he just wanted to say something to ask the waiter not to pour it. Xue Guoping had already preemptively said, "Miss Jenny, you can have a drink." The waiter poured her a little. I'll be responsible if I'm drunk. ”

"Since Mr. Xue said so, then I'll drink some." Jenny smiled and responded politely.

"Come, I'll give you a toast first. I wish Sofitel and our Binhai City a smooth cooperation. After pouring the wine, Xue Guoping first picked up the wine glass and said.

They all politely held wine glasses and touched glasses with Xue Guoping and Jenny. Li Xiaoning looked at Jenny sideways, only to see Jenny put down the wine glass after taking a sip gently, with a hint of bright red on her face, which was extremely tempting.

The wine table culture of Huaxia is very interesting, and after the opening remarks, the next show is to pour wine.

According to the usual practice, it is usually filled with guests, but today Xue Guoping didn't know why he first pointed the finger at Li Xiaoning. He raised his glass and said to Li Xiaoning: "Comrade Xiaoning has worked tirelessly for our Binhai City, and this professionalism is worth learning from all of us and is a model for all of us." Therefore, I would like to suggest that everyone give Comrade Xiaoning a glass of wine to express our respect. I'll come first, Comrade Xiaoning, and I would like to give you a drink! ”

Listening to Xue Guoping's words, Li Xiaoning had a dark anger in his heart, there were sixteen people at the first table, even if he excluded the two people from the Sofitel Group, one cup per person, didn't he have to drink thirteen cups? And what is the occasion today? Is it time to pour yourself wine? Xue Guoping, as the secretary of a sub-provincial city, has no level at all?

Looking at the crowd that was catering to them and the atmosphere was high, Li Xiaoning said with a slight smile: "The work is done by everyone, not by me." So this wine, everyone drank it together. Here, cheers! ”

"That's not going to work. Mayor Li. Secretary Xue said that you are our role model. This example wine you must drink. Every cup represents each of our admiration for you, you have to drink! Duan Yonghong, Secretary-General of the General Office of the Municipal Party Committee, is also a master in the wine field, and said on the side. insisted on persuading Li Xiaoning to drink, the purpose was nothing more than to get Li Xiaoning drunk.

Li Xiaoning saw that if he continued to resign, the atmosphere froze. I had to say, "That's good." I obey the leader's arrangement. Cheers! After saying that, he tilted his head and dried the wine.

"Good, good, good drink!" Everyone cheered, but Jenny on the side looked at Li Xiaoning curiously.

Li Xiaoning also let it go, this person couldn't go down when he sat at the wine table, just like a mixed river, he couldn't help himself. Dealing with it cup after cup, Li Xiaoning drank thirteen cups in one go. Fortunately, Li Xiaoning has a good amount of alcohol, if it were someone else, he would have fallen down in this round. Rao is Li Xiaoning's alcohol is good, and Li Xiaoning's throat and stomach are also burned in the 52-degree Moutai, as if they are being burned by fire.

Just when Li Xiaoning was relaxing, Jenny, who had not spoken, suddenly picked up her wine glass and said to Li Xiaoning, "Mr. Li." Come, I'll toast you too. Thank you for your love of the Sofitel Group. ”

Li Xiaoning stared at Jenny, and secretly said in her heart, what is crazy about this woman? I blushed after taking a small sip before, and now I pour myself wine?

"What? Do you look down on me, Mr. Li? Jenny pretended to be angry and said, "According to the saying in your country, this is not giving me face!" ”

"No, it's just...... It's just that...... This wine is a bit strong, not suitable for women! Li Xiaoning hurriedly explained. It means Jenny, you don't want to mix it up.

"Mr. Lee. I have two understandings of what you say. First, you look down on us women, can you only drink this wine if you are a man? That's not right for you. Second, you are deliberately avoiding alcohol and not giving me Jenny face, you have drunk everyone else here, but I Jenny toasted you but you didn't drink it, you are really chilling! Jenny sighed.

Li Xiaoning's sweat, he was kind-hearted, but he didn't expect his kindness to be treated as a donkey's liver and lungs. Well, since you're looking for it yourself, don't blame me for being rude. Thinking of this, Li Xiaoning picked up the wine glass and said, "Okay, then let's have a drink." However, you have to testify. I didn't mean to let Miss Jenny drink, and I'm not responsible for getting drunk later, let alone me bullying women. Li Xiaoning casually made a joke.

"Mr. Li, you should look down on people, why do you think I'm drunk? What if you're drunk? Jenny raised an eyebrow.

Li Xiaoning didn't expect Jenny to be in this posture, and secretly asked Jenny what does this mean? At that time, he looked at the people present, and finally Li Xiaoning said: "Then what do you say?" Do you want to gamble? ”

Li Xiaoning said this because of her absolute confidence in the amount of alcohol she had, and it was also due to the fact that she was forced by Jenny to get off the stage and had no choice.

"Bet on it, what do you think?" Jenny smiled at Li Xiaoning, then turned her face to everyone and said.

Those of you here are afraid that the world will not be chaotic. As soon as they heard that there was a gambling game, and it was Jenny and Li Xiaoning betting against each other, they immediately expressed their approval.

Li Xiaoning looked at Jenny and felt as if she had fallen into a trap. But at this time, there was no way, and he couldn't get off the stage, so he had to smile bitterly and said: "Bet on it, but what to bet on?" ”

"In my opinion, bet on our cooperation this time! If Xiaoning wins, how about Miss Jenny signing the contract with us? Zhang Yuqiang took the opportunity to say.

"Not good business. I don't bet on business. Jenny coldly dismissed Zhang Yuqiang's suggestion.

Don't gamble on business? So what to bet on? Generally speaking, the gambling between men and women at the wine table is nothing more than some ambiguous and colored small conditions, the small one is the woman's pro-man, and the big bet is the woman's own undressing and the like. But none of these conditions are met today. Jenny is the president of Sofitel Asia, and Li Xiaoning is a government official, so I don't dare to say such a little bit of conditions, but it won't be interesting to bet without saying something exciting.

"Otherwise, let's switch to beer and bet on who can't hold back and go to the bathroom. Do you dare to come? Mr. Lee. Jenny looked at Li Xiaoning with a defiant expression.

Can Li Xiaoning not be provoked by a woman like this? When even if it came down. When Duan Yonghong heard this, even if he called the waiter, he brought in another box of beer, opened it all and put it on the table.

Li Xiaoning really hadn't done this kind of thing like drinking with a woman, hesitated for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and picked up a bottle of beer, and said, "Is it to blow the bottle or drink the cup?" ”

"You blow the bottle, I drink it from a cup. How about you drink a bottle and I drink a glass? Fair, right? Jenny said as she poured herself a beer bottle.

"What?" Li Xiaoning almost didn't even hold the wine bottle steadily, what is this? She only drinks a bottle of herself? It's not a comparison of the amount of alcohol, but a comparison of the amount of stomach?

"Don't be so surprised, you're a man, aren't you? Didn't your country say that good men don't fight women? Are you a big man still fighting with me as a woman? Jenny said to Li Xiaoning with a little playfulness.

Li Xiaoning's face suddenly turned black, and he couldn't care about Jenny using idioms indiscriminately, because he remembered a warning - you must not quarrel with women, because you can't win. Just a minute ago, Jenny had said that men and women were equal, and now it was time for men to give way to women. And Li Xiaoning couldn't figure out why Jenny suddenly made this bet with herself. Is it just to show off your own appearance? When did Americans become so bored?
