The next morning, Li Ying was asleep, suddenly felt an itchy nose, opened his eyes, and saw Lin Xue wearing a white suit, carrying a satchel in her hand, and was bending down to gently stuff a hair into her nostrils.

Seeing that Li Ying opened her eyes, Lin Xue retracted her hand holding her hair, grinned, and said, "Slacker, sleep so soundly! You don't know when I got up, do you? I have already bought breakfast for you and put it in the microwave, and you can eat it when you get up and warm it up." I'm going to have a rehearsal for the Spring Festival Gala today, and I may not be able to contact you in the morning. I'll call you again at noon!"

Li Ying suddenly remembered that Secretary Long and Song Nianyao were still waiting for him to go back in the hotel, and his heart was excited, so he quickly jumped up from the bed and said repeatedly: "Oh no, no." What time is it? I might be mistaken!"

Lin Xue looked at her watch and said, "It's only a little past seven, what are you in a hurry? Breakfast is very important, and if you don't eat it, it's not good for your health. ”

Li Ying looked at Lin Xue and said with a smile, "Xie Hong is really right. Where were you so energetic last night, again and again, and it exhausted me. Otherwise, I would have woken up on time at six o'clock every day. ”

Lin Xue's face suddenly turned red like a ripe persimmon, and she rushed over and beat his chest with her hand: "You scoundrel! You bullied me, and you beat me upside down, talking about me! People are tired of walking now, and you are still talking about the wind and cold...... You yourself said, "Where are you screwing this time?"

Li Ying smiled and grabbed her hand and coaxed her: "Okay, okay, I was wrong! I shouldn't have crawled on top of you in the middle of the night, and I shouldn't have tired you so much that you couldn't walk...... Ouch ......"

It turned out that when he said the last two sentences, Lin Xue suddenly lowered his head and bit him the arm......

After the two of them laughed a few words, Lin Xue kissed him on the face a few times, straightened the whole suit, and then turned around and walked away reluctantly.

When Li Ying arrived at the Shenlong Hotel, it was almost eight o'clock. Secretary Long and Song Nianyao had been waiting for him in the lobby for half an hour. As soon as he ran into the lobby, Secretary Long made a straight face and criticized him: "Xiao Li, I see that you are usually very diligent and punctual, so I only gave you a vacation last night and let you go to play casually." Today, I made an appointment to visit Director Chi at the Food and Drug Administration at 8 o'clock, and now it's only a few minutes away.

Li Ying's face was red, and he couldn't explain it, so he hurriedly ran from the hall into the underground parking lot, drove the car out, parked at the door of the hotel lobby, and waited for Secretary Long and Song Nianyao to get into the car, and then drove quickly to the Food and Drug Administration......

Throughout the morning, Li Ying drove the car, carrying Secretary Long and Song Nianyao between various departments. However, the effect was not ideal: the leaders of several departments and bureaus politely rejected Secretary Long's request, and only a few experts promised to go there. And the director of the Food and Drug Administration, Director Chi of the Food and Drug Administration, whom Secretary Long and Xing Lihua wanted to invite the most, only promised to accompany Secretary Long to have a lunch at noon, but did not agree to go to Wushui to cut the ribbon.

Song Nianyao went to the provincial TV station to ask for the host, but it was also not smooth: she contacted the host through two reporters she knew. Unexpectedly, when these hosts heard that they were going to the remote and impoverished Wushui County, it was estimated that the trip was not very oily, so they found all kinds of excuses to shirk it, but none of them were decided.

And Xing Lihua is a person who has seen the world, if he can't invite a host who is a little famous, I'm afraid that the evaluation of Secretary Long's ability will be greatly reduced......

By half past eleven o'clock in the afternoon, Secretary Long and Song Nianyao were a little tired and a little irritable: they had been smiling all morning, saying good things, and begging left and right, but they didn't expect such a result.

Because Director Chi, the most important person, was invited to dinner at noon, Secretary Long instructed Li Ying to drive the car to a relatively quiet small street near the provincial party committee according to the location designated by Director Chi, find a local restaurant with a sign of "Mei Family's Three Bowls", sit down in the No. 10 box pre-booked by Director Chi, and wait patiently for Director Chi to come over.

There was a TV in the box, which was replaying Tiannan TV's "Starlight Glimmer" program last night. On TV, Lin Xue and several big-name stars are teasing each other. Lin Xue's wit, humor and quick speech attracted bursts of warm applause from the audience from time to time. Those big stars are often stammered by some of her tricky and outlandish questions, which attracts bursts of good-natured laughter from the audience......

Although Song Nianyao is in his thirties, he is very young, and he likes to watch Tiannan Satellite TV's variety entertainment programs, especially the programs hosted by Lin Xue. She is usually in Wushui, has nothing to do at night, and does not like to study, so she watches TV every day. Lin Xue hosts several programs, especially "Starlight Glimmer", she is a must-see in every episode. This episode of the program is being rebroadcast now, because she accompanied Secretary Long to visit several leaders last night, so she didn't see it, and she was regretting it in her heart, so she saw that the TV in the box was being replayed, so she watched it with relish.

When it was almost twelve o'clock, Director Chi walked into the box alone. Because Secretary Long and Song Nianyao had already visited him in his office in the morning, they didn't have much politeness to each other. Secretary Long just introduced Li Ying to him, saying that this was Xiao Li from the Wushui County Party Committee Office. Director Chi shook hands with Li Ying lightly, then sat down with Secretary Long and chatted casually.

Although Secretary Long and Director Chi are of the same rank, because Director Chi holds the power of product approval and inspection in the pharmaceutical factory in the future, Secretary Long was very polite to him, and invited him to go to Wushui again during the conversation. But Director Chi remained noncommittal.

Seeing that he still didn't agree, Secretary Long was angry, but he didn't have a good seizure, and when he saw that Director Chi's eyes were already looking at the TV screen, he stopped talking and watched TV with him.

After watching it for a minute or two, Director Chi suddenly asked Secretary Long, as if intentionally or unintentionally: "Secretary Long, the groundbreaking ceremony of your pharmaceutical factory is so grand, and you, the secretary of the county party committee, have personally come to the provincial capital to invite people to attend, so you should invite a more famous host to preside over the ceremony!"

Secretary Long smiled bitterly and said: "Director Chi, I won't tell you: We would like to invite a famous host, and if possible, I would like to invite this Lin Xue on TV! But we don't have such a big face! Wushui is a remote and impoverished mountainous area, don't say that it is Lin Xue and other celebrity hosts, even some small hosts who are not very famous, and they don't want to go to us! I'm still worried about this! If it really can't be done, I have to go to our Mingguang TV station and ask for one. ”

Director Chi smiled, stared at Lin Xue who was hosting the show on TV, and joked: "Secretary Long, if you ask Lin Xue to go to your Wushui, I can push the matter at hand, and I have to go to Wushui to have a look." Hehehe!"

Long Shengli knew that he was joking, and although he didn't think it was funny, he had no choice but to laugh with him twice.

After laughing, Director Chi pointed to Lin Xue on TV and said, "Secretary Long, this girl has a deep background! I heard that her grandfather is Lin Zhendong, a revolutionary of the older generation of our party, her father is now the secretary of the municipal party committee in the capital city K, and her mother is the vice chairman of the All-China Women's Federation. Moreover, Secretary Du of the Provincial Party Committee turned out to be her grandfather's secretary. Tell me: How could such a girl from a family come to Tiannan TV to be the host? Many people have studied and probed for a long time on this issue, but no one can find a defensible reason. The leaders of many departments in the province, including our current Director Ji, have invited Lin Xue to their departments many times to participate in some celebrations or commemorative activities, wanting to take the opportunity to get close to her, but she has unceremoniously refused each time. Huh!"

Secretary Long usually doesn't like to watch TV, especially not like to watch these noisy variety entertainment shows, so he is not interested in these entertainment gossip at all. However, now when he heard Director Chi say that Lin Xue had such a strong family background, there was still a look of surprise on his face.

Li Ying had been listening to their conversation in silence. Later, he heard Director Chi say that as long as Lin Xue went to Wushui, he could put aside what he was doing and go to Wushui to cut the ribbon, and his heart moved, so he interjected with a smile: "Director Chi, if we invite Lin Xue to be the host, can you really go to Wushui?"

Director Chi glanced at him, thinking that he was deliberately joking with himself, and felt a little unhappy in his heart, so he turned his head and glanced at Secretary Long dissatisfiedly, and did not answer Li Ying's words.

Secretary Long also thought that Li Ying was joking, so he said with a straight face: "Xiao Li, jokes should be moderate, and they should be divided into occasions...... You go outside and ask the waiter if it's time to serve?"

Li Ying knew that Secretary Long deliberately gave himself out to avoid embarrassment, so he stood up with a smile, and explained something, walked outside and said to the waiter that it was okay to serve the food, and after the waiter brought the food in, he went in again and sat down.

At this moment, his mobile phone rang, and when he saw that it was Lin Xue calling, he pressed the answer button, only to hear Lin Xue shouting on the phone: "Husband, where are you? Our rehearsal is over, I want to have dinner with you." ”

Li Ying smiled: "I'm eating with my leader now, will you come?"

"I'm not coming! I want to eat alone with you. Tell your leader, I'll pick you up. ”

Li Ying said: "Then you can eat alone, I can't come, I have something to do later." ”

Song Nianyao thought it was one of his classmates, and quietly poked him in the arm, signaling him not to call someone over for dinner.

Li Ying nodded at Song Nianyao, indicating that she understood what she meant. But I heard Lin Xue say on the phone: "Where are you eating? I'll come over first." Anyway, you have to accompany me to this lunch. We finally got together, and the first meal had to be eaten together. ”

Li Ying said helplessly: "Then you come over first, I am in a local restaurant on Ji'an Road called Meijia Three Bowls, and you call me at the door." ”
