However, this idea stirred in Li Yuanlang's consciousness. Because it involved a large area, he could only think about it for the time being and could not put it into practice yet.

It was drizzling non-stop, and Li Yuanlang stood by the roadside holding an umbrella.

Strangely, none of the taxis were empty. He finally waited for one, but a young couple beat him to it, causing him to continue waiting in vain.

Li Yuanlang really wanted to call Lao Sun, but when he thought it was already nine o'clock in the evening, it would be unethical to disturb Lao Sun at this time.

Forget it, just wait.

Another ten minutes passed, and as the rain became heavier and heavier, there were fewer pedestrians and fewer vehicles than before. At the same time, it was wearing down Li Yuanlang's patience.

Simply, at worst, walk back and just take a walk in the rain.

With this in mind, Li Yuanlang was about to open his legs and walk along the sidewalk towards the Baiyuan Garden Hotel when a white Honda CRV turned on the turn signal and turned from the traffic and stopped steadily beside him.

Lowering the window, a beautiful woman's face was revealed, "Secretary Li, get in the car."

Li Yuanlang took a closer look, wasn't this Yun Haiyao?

"Mr. Yun, why is it you?"

"Let's talk after we get in the car." Yun Haiyao waved to him.

Li Yuanlang quickly put away his umbrella, opened the passenger door, and got in.

Fasten your seat belt and ask curiously why.

"My sister asked me to pick you up. She was worried that you wouldn't be able to get a taxi." Yun Haiyao turned the steering wheel and the car started. It turned a corner in front and headed straight for Baiyuan Garden.

"Sorry to trouble you and your sister." Li Yuanlang said politely.

Yun Haiyao smiled and said: "Secretary Li, you're welcome. It's my honor to serve you. I can't find any opportunities even if I look for them."

Li Yuanlang said: "Mr. Yun is very good at talking. It's a pity that it's useless for you to flatter me. I'm not Secretary-General Ji, so I can't control you."

"You are a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee, the leader of the Municipal Party Committee, and also my superior."

This Yun Haiyao speaks straightforwardly.

Li Yuanlang smiled helplessly and did not answer any further questions.

After the car drove for some distance, Yun Haiyao's cell phone rang, and she pressed the wireless earphone to answer the call.

"Mom, I know, I will persuade my sister to go, don't worry." I don't know what was said on the other end of the phone, Yun Haiyao said impatiently: "It would be a great honor for her to go, but I can't guarantee her

Will it make you lose face? If you have other requests, I can only do nothing to help you. You can find someone else to persuade my sister."

After a while, Yun Haiyao complained: "Okay, we will leave tomorrow afternoon and we will arrive in the evening. Just wait for my call."

After hanging up the phone, Li Yuanlang understood clearly even if he didn't want to hear it.

It's just other people's private affairs, he won't pry around, like a talkative woman.

Seeing that Li Yuanlang remained silent, Yun Haiyao asked, "Secretary Li, how was my sister's mood when you and she had dinner just now?"

This is not surprising. Since Yun Dongqing could get his sister to pick him up, he would naturally tell her about having dinner with Yun Dongqing.

"It was good at first, but then I got a call from your mother and it suddenly became bad." Li Yuanlang could only tell the truth.

"It's true." Yun Haiyao sighed and said, "My mother and my sister don't have a good relationship. I am sandwiched in the middle and become a sandwich biscuit. It is really difficult to make."

Li Yuanlang touched the handle of the umbrella in his hand and asked with a smile: "Is it because your mother wants to introduce a boyfriend to your sister, but she doesn't want to meet him?"

"No, it's something else." Yun Haiyao sighed: "It's an old thing, and my sister can't let it go, which puts me in a dilemma."

Upon hearing this, Li Yuanlang immediately became silent.

When it comes to other people's family matters, he can only be a listener. If Yun Haiyao wants to complain, he can just listen with his ears open, and he will never ask random questions.

"I'm sorry." Seeing Li Yuanlang's lack of response, Yun Haiyao thought that Li Yuanlang was not interested in hearing about her family matters, so she quickly apologized.

"Mr. Yun, if you want to express your feelings, just say so. I'm listening."

"Oh, would you like to hear it?"

Li Yuanlang shrugged, "It's okay, please tell me."

Because it was raining, the car was not going very fast, and there was still some distance to Baiyuan Garden, so Yun Haiyao simply complained and started nagging.

Much like a single-parent family, Yun Haiyao's parents had a bad relationship, and in her memory, quarreling became a common occurrence.

Her father was devastated by this and drank all day long to drown his sorrows. When she was six years old, he contracted liver cancer and passed away.

After their father died, the two sisters had no one to take care of them.

Originally, her mother was supposed to take over, but she had just remarried and it was difficult to take over her daughter to live with her.

In desperation, he sent the sisters to their grandparents' house in the countryside, where they were raised by them.

The two sisters are quite good. They were admitted to college respectively. After graduation, they both found decent jobs and are living a good life today.

Yun Dongqing is three years older than Yun Haiyao, so she naturally becomes sensible earlier than her.

In my sister's impression, her father's death, including the two sisters' childhood suffering, were ultimately all her mother's fault.

Even though I am now thirty-five years old, this thought has not gone away.

It's just that due to the blood relationship, the relationship has not been completely broken off. Occasionally, the relationship is still weak.

On the other hand, Yun Haiyao, because she is young, hates her mother relatively little.

More importantly, she was able to become the general manager of Baihuayuan Hotel because of her mother's help.

No, tomorrow is her mother's birthday.

Her mother hopes that both daughters can come to attend. After all, they are a family. Her daughter's absence makes the birthday party incomplete and regrettable.

The main reason is that her mother lives in Yuchuan, the provincial capital, and another thing is that Yun Dongqing doesn't want to see her stepfather.

If her stepfather had not objected at the beginning, sisters Yun Dongqing would not have spent their childhood and youth in the countryside. They might have been able to get into higher education and their lives would have been better than they are now.

With this mentality, Yun Dongqing did not agree to attend her mother's birthday at all, let alone see that man.

Her mother just called Yun Haiyao to ask her to persuade her sister to agree to appear at the birthday dinner tomorrow night no matter what.

Another emotional debt.

Li Yuanlang felt the same way. He was not like this.

In the midst of the dilemma, the Honda drove to the gate of Baiyuan Garden. Li Yuanlang said thank you and turned to leave.

I thought he was just an outsider in this matter, so he would get involved if he knew about it.

Unexpectedly, after breakfast the next day, when he and Mu Guangsen were preparing to go to the city government office, they met Yun Haiyao in the hotel corridor.

She said eagerly: "Secretary Li, I would like to ask you for a favor."

"What's the deal?"

Yun Haiyao pleaded: "I want you to persuade my sister. I spent the whole night with her last night and she refused to go to Yuchuan to attend my mother's birthday party."

"My mother's side is ready. You said that if my sister doesn't go, it will not look good on my mother, and it will also hurt her heart, so..."

"This..." Li Yuanlang became troubled, "This is your family matter, and it's not for me, an outsider, to get involved..."

"Secretary Li, you and my sister can talk well, and she can listen to what you say. Please, please help me no matter what. I want to thank you on behalf of my mother."

Li Yuanlang shook his head helplessly, really unwilling to get involved.

But he couldn't stand Yun Haiyao's persistent begging, so he relented and reluctantly agreed, telling Yun Haiyao: "I can't guarantee whether it will happen or not. I can only do my best."

"I can't thank you enough for your words. Thank you, thank you so much."

In the office, Li Yuanlang and Mu Guangsen chatted about this matter. Mu Guangsen knew a little bit about it, and he strongly agreed with Li Yuanlang's role as a lobbyist.

Li Yuanlang thought, that's all, the beauty of adulthood, just help him once.

He immediately picked up the phone and contacted Yun Dongqing, making an appointment to have dinner together at noon and talk to her by the way.

To name it euphemistically, I would like to thank Yun Dongqing for arranging for his sister to drive him to him last night for his righteous deed.

Yun Dongqing readily agreed and named the Hunan restaurant because she likes spicy food and it suits her.

After finishing this matter, Wang Zhishan called Li Yuanlang over and talked to him about Zheng Yaoqi's beating.

It seemed that Wang Zhishan was in a bad mood. After asking, he found out that he and Ming Shangbai had just had a quarrel.

"Mayor Wang, calm down." Li Yuanlang handed the thermos cup to Wang Zhishan and consoled him: "This matter cannot be rushed. Secretary Ming's intention to protect Xu Mai is obvious. Besides, it was Xu Mai's driver who hit Deputy Mayor Zheng, not

Xu Mai himself, we can’t do anything to Xu Mai yet.”
