I finally arrived at my destination.

The three of them walked into this upscale restaurant together.

"Uh, I'm sorry sir, you booked a double seat, and you can't sit for three people, which will affect the experience of other guests." The waiter patiently explained, but his eyes were full of gossip.

Two men and one woman, double seats!

No matter how you look at it, it's not normal.

"Yingying, look at this situation, do you want your boyfriend to go out and wait for us?" Li Xiangrong asked cautiously.

"Why don't you go out and wait?"

Qiao Yingying rolled her eyes and grabbed Xu Shi's arm: "Either you change places, or you leave, you invited me to dinner, not that I have to come." ”

"Okay...... Li Xiangrong took a deep breath, turned his head and looked at the waiter again: "Are there any other positions?" Three-person or four-person positions are fine. ”

"Sir, we're all booked here......"

"I'll add money!"

The last three words, Li Xiangrong said through gritted teeth.

Xu Shi didn't have the heart to care about how Li Xiangrong handled the matter of the seat at this time, he looked at Qiao Yingying in some surprise.

Needless to say, Qiao Yingying's appearance is naturally needless to say, and most of her dresses are in that cool and handsome style, which she can't see on weekdays, but now that she gets started, Xu Shi feels very clearly.

Flat.

It's too peaceful.

Xu Shi felt that he and Qiao Yingying could only be brothers in the future.

"Look at what, look!" Qiao Yingying also noticed that Xu Shi's gaze was wrong, and her expression was a little fierce.

"It's fine." Xu Shi hurriedly shifted his gaze.

Soon, the three of them were seated.

Xu Shi doesn't regard himself as an outsider either, and picks expensive things on the menu.

"Huh...... Brother Xu Shi is really welcome. Li Xiangrong raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Although I don't know what work you are responsible for in the Commission for Discipline Inspection, you don't make much money." ”

"It's true that I don't make much."

Xu Shi nodded, pointed to the price on the menu and said, "A few random dishes here are worth a month's work for me, unlike you, there should be a lot of spare money at home." ”

There are other meanings in the words of both men.

It's just that Xu Shi's words directly pointed to the financial situation of Li Xiangrong's family, so Li Xiangrong didn't reply again.

The officialdom of Shanghe County is greedy, and even the Commission for Discipline Inspection itself is not clean, let alone the county magistrate? Li Xiangrong, as a family member of the county magistrate, drove a BMW car worth four or five hundred thousand yuan in an open and honest manner.

After the food came up, Xu Shi basically didn't talk much, basically eating.

Only Li Xiangrong was constantly talking to Qiao Yingying, and he was almost.

Occasionally, Qiao Yingying couldn't help but be asked, so she reminded Xu Shi.

But Xu Shi would only be casually perfunctory, and still bowed his head to eat.

The county magistrate is not as good as the current management.

Xu Shiren is in Shanghe County, even if Zhang Wenyao is behind him, he doesn't want to offend another county magistrate.

Li Xiangrong naturally saw all this.

Taking advantage of Qiao Yingying's interval between going to the toilet, Li Xiangrong's eyes fell on Xu Shi's body.

"Xu Shi, we are about the same age, I will call you by name."

Li Xiangrong smiled and asked tentatively, "Do you know the situation in Qiao Yingying's family?" ”

"At home?" Xu Shi shook his head.

For this, Qiao Yingying really hasn't mentioned it.

"That's ......" Li Xiangrong began to have some calculations in his heart, and said: "Although you didn't say it, I should also be able to guess that your position in the Commission for Discipline Inspection is not high, right?" ”

Xu Shi nodded: "It's really not high, I'm just a deputy director of the office." ”

"Officialdom is complicated." Li Xiangrong moved closer to Xu Shi and said, "If you don't have a backer, it will be difficult for you to rise, you should have also heard Yingying say, I am the son of the county magistrate, do you understand what I mean?" ”

Xu Shi stopped his chopsticks.

I don't know why, looking at Li Xiangrong's serious appearance of winning himself over, he really wanted to laugh.

"How about I make a deal with you?"

Li Xiangrong saw that Xu Shi began to listen to himself carefully, and his heart suddenly began to be proud, even if you and Qiao Yingying are a couple? After knowing my identity, don't you still have to bow your head?

"You say." Xu Shi showed a very interested look.

"You break up with Qiao Yingying and give me the opportunity."

Li Xiangrong looked around and said in a low voice, "As long as you agree, how about I promise you to raise your position to a higher level in a short period of time?" Aren't you a vice-in-law? I'll turn you positive. ”

"Really?"

Xu Shi was very moved, and then he was a little embarrassed: "But I work in the Commission for Discipline Inspection, and I am not in the same system as the county Standing Committee......"

"What's this, the relationship in the county is very complicated, as long as you promise to come down, I will promise you!" Li Xiangrong patted his chest and reassured.

"Then I promise you." Xu Shi readily agreed.

"I ...... Belch? ”

Li Xiangrong originally wanted to say something, but he was choked by Xu Shi's promised speed, but he reacted quickly, and immediately put his arm around Xu Shi's shoulders and said, "When she comes back later, you will break up with her, and then leave and let me be here." ”

"Understood!" Xu Shi looked like I understood.

"Hahaha!"

Li Xiangrong laughed heartily, very proud.

Looking at his appearance, Xu Shi smiled happily.

The deputy director of the case supervision and management office has a regular rank, and the main position is generally concurrently held by the standing committee of the county party committee. However, it is only a part-time job, and it is not actually managed.

The leaders of the county party committee and the county discipline inspection commission belong to different systems.

The former can lead the latter politically, but cannot interfere in specific affairs.

This is also why after so long, Xu Shi still hasn't seen the director of his office, but he heard that he is a deputy county magistrate.

As long as he says a word, Li Xiangrong can promote himself to deputy county magistrate, why not?

"What are you laughing at? So happy. ”

At this time, Qiao Yingying came over and was surprised to see that Xu Shi and Li Xiangrong were getting along very harmoniously, which was completely different from before.

In Li Xiangrong's expectant gaze, Xu Shi stood up.

"Break up! We don't fit! ”

"What?"

Qiao Yingying was stunned, her face full of surprise.

"I said break up, you deserve someone better!" Xu Shi recommended to Qiao Yingying seriously: "I think Li Xiangrong is quite suitable, handsome and golden, and has a background." ”

Li Xiangrong watched from the sidelines, almost treating Xu Shi as his own brother.

"Are you ......" Qiao Yingying looked at Xu Shi, was silent for a moment, gritted her teeth and said, "Are you sick?" ”

"I'm serious."

Xu Shi said sincerely: "Li Xiangrong has already told me just now, as long as I break up with you, I can be promoted to another level." ”

Hearing this, Qiao Yingying showed a smile.

"He's a fool, are you a fool too?"

"And you, is your brain broken?"

Qiao Yingying looked at Li Xiangrong and scolded: "He is the deputy director of the supervision and management office, what do you want to promote to the next level?" Where do you sit on it? Or do you want your dad to get down? He's making fun of people with intellectual disabilities, you're such a fool, I think it was the last time I beat you lightly, get out of the way. ”

This scolding without the slightest stumbling made Li Xiangrong's face turn green.

But he didn't dare to be angry with Qiao Yingying, so he could only look at Xu Shi: "Didn't you mean...... Deputy Director......"

Halfway through, he himself put out the fire first.

At the end of the whole process, Xu Shi didn't say which department he was from, only that he was the deputy director, and it was his own preconceived ideas.
