After several days of preparation, in the last three days of August, at the county government hotel, environmental protection popularization training was carried out.

Everyone from the Environmental Protection Bureau served as training lecturers, and each of them prepared courseware and explained from different angles and levels. Each township sent two people to participate in the training, one of whom was the deputy section leader and the other was a specific staff member. Through the training, the trainees learned a lot of things, and the training lecturers also collected some materials, and the whole training achieved good results.

The last class, which was trained by Li Guanglei, mainly focused on the overall situation of environmental protection work.

At the end of the lecture, after saying blessings and goodbyes to everyone, Li Guanglei left the conference room and prepared to return to the Environmental Protection Bureau.

As soon as I got out of the hotel, before I got into the car, my mobile phone rang.

glanced at the caller ID, subconsciously looked back, and Li Guanglei pressed the answer button: "Mayor Miao, is there something wrong?" ”

"Director Li, Professor Li, do you have to have something to do to find you?" Miao Lingling's voice came from the phone.

Li Guanglei smiled: "If you say this, I don't know how to phrase it, you can say it." ”

"Today I invite you to dinner, please enjoy the light." The other party said.

After hesitating for a moment, Li Guanglei said: "I'm afraid I'll ...... tonight."

"You didn't socialize tonight." The other party grabbed the words first, "If you don't want me to break the bank, then you will be the east, you have never fulfilled the friendship of the landlord." ”

When it came to this, Li Guanglei couldn't shirk it anymore, so he had to agree: "You book a place, go first, I really have to go back and deal with some things first." ”

After getting the other party's response, Li Guanglei got into the car and rushed to the unit. The reason why he said that he had something to deal with was to continue to fulfill his previous little lie, and secondly, to avoid his peers.

Soon after returning to the unit, Li Guanglei received a text message from Miao Lingling, which included the name of the restaurant and the room number of the meal package. After grinding for almost half an hour, Li Guanglei left the unit and took a taxi to the dining place.

It wasn't until the taxi stopped that Li Guanglei knew that the restaurant was in the eastern suburbs of the city, nearly a kilometer out of the city.

After paying the fare, he entered the restaurant, and under the guidance of the service staff, Li Guanglei went to the private room on the second floor. The text message only knew that it was "202", but it turned out that there was a special name - love is priceless. Seeing the name of this meal bag, Li Guanglei was speechless.

"What are you doing?" Miao Lingling came out in time.

Li Guanglei said "oh": "I thought I had made a mistake." ”

"I only know the room number when I order food." Miao Lingling explained.

Turning around and thanking the waiter, Li Guanglei walked into the meal bag.

Miao Lingling gently closed the door and said softly, "In the dark!" ”

Li Guanglei didn't quite understand it for a while, but after thinking about it again, he realized that the other party was still talking about the name of the meal bag. He couldn't answer, so he sat down at the table.

Coming to the table, Miao Lingling bent down to pour tea and asked, "Director Li, please order." ”

A fragrance rushed into his nostrils, and Li Guanglei subconsciously looked at it. I noticed that Miao Lingling had changed her outfit, and her previous formal dress had become a sleeveless long skirt. The bandeau of the skirt was looser, and the contents were looming at her waist.

Li Guanglei couldn't help blushing, and hurriedly withdrew his gaze: "I eat casually, and I haven't been here before, so I don't know the taste here." Besides, if I invite you today, I will definitely let you eat well. ”

"Bureau Li is really a warm man, then I might as well be respectful." Miao Lingling said, sat down in her seat, chose a few dishes, wrote them on the order menu, and handed them to the waiter who came later.

As long as he looked up, he saw the neck of the white flower, and the lace that flickered in his clothes, Li Guanglei was very awkward, so he looked out the window from time to time on the grounds of tasting tea.

Miao Lingling was silent for a while, and the atmosphere in the room was a little awkward, and it seemed to have a different meaning.

"Bureau Li, you seem to have a mind." Miao Lingling broke the silence.

Li Guanglei retracted his gaze, but still stared at the teacup, and said, "What are you thinking so much?" Don't keep calling it that, it's too awkward. ”

"Hey......" Miao Lingling sighed, "I want to call it casually, but you have always had a cold face and don't pay much attention to me, I don't dare to be close." ”

Li Guanglei shook his head and smiled: "The more you talk about it, the more evil it becomes." I just happened to think of one thing, and I was a little distracted, and I made you buckle up your big hat. ”

"Not just now. When I was in the town before, I didn't think that we had a lot of contact at that time. But since you arrived in the county, you have never taken the initiative to contact me, even if I look for you, you always don't smile, it's just to deal with it, just to avoid me. really responded to that sentence, there are new people and old people, and it is really sad. Miao Lingling's tone was quiet.

"Ahhh Li Guanglei teased.

Miao Lingling immediately answered: "Then are you Brother Bao*?" ”

"This, this...... Isn't it dinner today? How do they become pairs? Li Guanglei played haha again.

Just then, the door opened, and the waiter brought the dishes.

Li Guanglei found the conversation at the right time: "What drink do you drink?" ”

"Red wine, I've already ordered it." Miao Lingling said.

When the dishes are served, Li Guanglei uses the dishes as a topic and tries to avoid the other party from saying other content.

Not long after, the red wine was served, and Li Guanglei poured some for everyone.

Miao Lingling picked up the goblet: "I have to say something, right?" ”

Li Guanglei also picked up the cup: "I wish you a high rise step by step, and your official luck ......"

"No, no, what is this?" Miao Lingling waved her hand again and again.

"It's so official." After laughing at himself, Li Guanglei said again, "Then I wish you all the best of luck." ”

"Well, that's a bit of a word. I wish you ......" Miao Lingling's face turned red suddenly, and she changed her words, "I won't tell you." ”

"Okay, if you don't say it, don't say it, it's all in the wine." Li Guanglei stretched out his wine glass.

Miao Lingling took the sentence "everything is in silence", touched the other party, and drank it with a smile.

The next eating and drinking has been carried out in an awkward and ambiguous atmosphere. Miao Lingling's words always mean something, which is both a hint and a guide. Li Guanglei felt that the other party was ridiculous, but also seemed to be serious, and it was difficult to respond for a while, and it was inconvenient to speak too bluntly, so he could only keep playing haha.

Looking at the remaining red wine in the bottle, Li Guanglei said: "I drank a lot, I think it's almost over." ”

"What do you mean almost? I didn't drink much. Miao Lingling raised her eyebrows.

"I'm a bit of a head, probably because I don't drink red wine a lot." Li Guanglei found a reason.

Miao Lingling smiled: "Then I want to change it to beer for you." ”

"I'm most afraid of mixing with wine, so let's take it when we see it. It's not too early, so let's go back early. One last cup, okay? Li Guanglei said, raising his right index finger.

Miao Lingling didn't answer immediately, but was stunned for a while before saying, "Guanglei, don't you mind if I call you that, right?" ”

"Why do you ask that? We are old colleagues, and we are the best names. ”

"Old colleagues? So what do you call me? Don't say anything about 'Mayor Miao'. ”

I never thought that Li Guanglei had always called the other party's position.

Miao Lingling? It's too raw.

Seedlings? I'm too big.

Old seedlings? Not even more.

Lingling? It's not appropriate, right?

It's really an old mahjong encountering a new problem, and Li Guanglei really can't give an answer.

"I knew it didn't carry much in your heart." After Miao Lingling "hummed", her face suddenly darkened, "Guanglei, what do you think of me?" ”

"Okay." Li Guanglei blurted out without thinking.

"How's it going?"

"Integrity, kindness, diligence, and ...... work"

"I mean, from the point of view of a man judging a woman."

"Nice, welcoming, helpful."

"Am I virtuous?"

"Virtuous ...... Virtuous. ”

"Am I good-tempered?"

"Okay."

"Am I reasonable?"

"Yes."

"I can still go to the hall and the kitchen, I still have measurements, and I don't talk about right and wrong, I don't talk nonsense, I must feel sorry for men and honor my in-laws." After listing a list of advantages, Miao Lingling asked, "Do I meet the criteria for a good wife?" ”

Li Guanglei looked embarrassed for a moment, and immediately said: "Yes, too consistent." If any buddy marries you, it must be the happiest person in the world, and I wish him well in advance. ”

"Then bless yourself." Miao Lingling stared at each other and said this sentence word by word.

What are you afraid of, but it still leads to the topic. Li Guanglei was stunned, and he was sloppy again: "I still said that I didn't drink too much, and I didn't say anything before and after, so let's withdraw." ”

Miao Lingling immediately said: "Who said I drank too much, what I say now is serious, I just want to ......"

Li Guanglei interrupted the other party: "Time flies fast and slow, my girlfriend has been abroad for almost two years, and she should come over soon." ”

A trace of pain appeared on Miao Lingling's face, and her tone was also very heavy: "Don't use this as an excuse. The relationship of gathering less and leaving more is unstable, which only increases the pain of each other, and the final outcome is often ...... People should also be more practical when pursuing romance. I'm not trying to destroy anything, I'm pursuing happiness, and I want you and her to be happy. ”

"You've really drunk too much, let's go now." Li Guanglei said and stood up.

Miao Lingling's eyes were full of pity: "Thank you for accompanying me for my birthday!" I'd like to drink a little more. ”

"Your birthday?" Li Guanglei questioned and sat back in his chair.

"Happy birthday to me." Miao Lingling said, picking up her wine glass.

"Happy Birthday!" Li Guanglei smiled and raised his glass.

After clinking glasses and drinking, Miao Lingling poured them again for the two, and Li Guanglei did not stop them.

"I'm so happy to have you with me for my birthday." Before Miao Lingling finished speaking, the glass of wine entered her stomach again.

Seeing such a situation, Li Guanglei had no choice but to drink the wine in the cup and try to share it for her, anyway, he didn't take the bottle of wine anymore.

"I'm really happy, all these years......" Miao Lingling's eyes welled up with tears and murmured some of the past.

Li Guanglei didn't interject, just listened like that. Listening to it, I couldn't help but feel sad, and I couldn't help but sigh secretly.

Miao Lingling not only said, but said that she would take a sip after a while, and Li Guanglei also drank with her.

In the end, a bottle of red wine bottomed out, and Li Guanglei did not follow the other party to "have another bottle", but half-coaxed and half-supported, and took Miao Lingling away from the meal bag.

"Thank you for accompanying me for my birthday, I'm so happy." Miao Lingling already had a hard tongue and stumbled under her feet.

"Rejoice, rejoice, watch your step." Li Guanglei helped the other party and went downstairs.

Li Guanglei now wants to take the other party away as soon as possible and send him back to his residence as soon as possible. But a lot of things don't work out of the way, and sometimes they go far from the mark.
