Chapter 985 Passive Compromise
While waiting anxiously, Cai Shixin finally saw Li Yuanlang's hurried figure.
"Secretary Li, Secretary Liu asked me to wait for you here, please come with me."
After shaking hands, Cai Shixin led Li Yuanlang into the reception room on the first floor.
Cai Shixin was deeply touched by Secretary Li Yuanlang.
Cai Shixin was well aware of Li Yuanlang's intricate relationship, especially the one who had a close relationship with him, Miss Bai Qing from the capital. Cai Shixin had experienced this deeply.
In fact, given his status, let alone Li Yuanlang, even Lu Shide would not hesitate to fawn over him.
But Cai Shixin did not dare to offend this Li Yuanlang. From the beginning to the end, he was very polite and respectful to Li Yuanlang.
Walking to the door of the reception room, Cai Shixin said softly: "Secretary Li, please wait a moment. I will go in and make an announcement."
"Excuse me, Chu Chu." Li Yuanlang responded politely.
At this moment, he looked calm on the outside, but felt uneasy inside.
I don’t know why Secretary Liu summoned him.
Within a minute, Cai Shixin came out and asked Li Yuanlang to come in.
The reception room was filled with smoke. Not only Liu Haozhun was present, but the person next to him who was puffing away smoke was actually Wang Zhanhong.
Li Yuanlang was shocked!
Liu Haozhun sat on the sofa and waved to Li Yuanlang, "Zhanhong and you are all old acquaintances, so I won't bother introducing you."
After saying that, Liu Haozhun patted the armrest of the sofa, stood up slowly, and said, "Let's talk."
Obviously, Liu Haozhun deliberately hid away to leave a space for Li Yuanlang and Wang Zhanhong to be alone.
Explain that the person who wants to see Li Yuanlang is not Liu Haozhun, but Secretary Wang Zhanhong.
Li Yuanlang was even more confused. Wang Zhanhong had come all the way from Donghe to Rongshan to see him. There must be something important.
Observing Wang Zhanhong's expression, he was as calm as water, with no emotion or sorrow.
"Yuen Long, sit here." Wang Zhanhong waved his hand and asked Li Yuanlang to sit on the empty sofa next to him.
"Here is a cigarette, take it yourself." Wang Zhanhong took a deep breath and saw Li Yuanlang lighting up the cigarette, then he said slowly: "First of all, I want to congratulate you."
Li Yuanlang immediately understood that Wang Zhanhong was referring to his promotion of deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, so he modestly said: "The organization has put more burdens on me, and what I have done is not good enough..."
"You!" Wang Zhanhong pointed at Li Yuanlang with his finger, "Let me correct you. First, I am not the secretary of Rongshan Province. There is no need to speak such official language to me. Second, I have come all the way here, and I am not the secretary of Rongshan Province.
When I talk about this matter, I mean another important matter, about your marriage."
"A big deal about marriage?" Li Yuanlang's eyes widened and he became even more confused.
Wang Zhanhong explained: "I was entrusted by Comrade Linsong to propose to you that you marry Bai Qing as soon as possible."
Marry her!
Li Yuanlang was puzzled. Wang Zhanhong knew about his grudge against Bai Qing. Why did Wang Zhanhong bring up something that was obviously impossible?
He immediately shook his head like a rattle and said, "I'm sorry, I have no choice but to obey."
Wang Zhanhong was not surprised by Li Yuanlang's statement. He looked serious and said in a serious tone: "Yuenlang, I won't beat around the bush with you. To be blunt, I am not looking for you to discuss or listen to your opinion. I am serious.
If I really inform you, you must agree."
"I know you, and I also know that you have misunderstandings about Bai Qing. None of this is important. What is important is that you arbitrarily kept your little book secretly, which has caused extremely adverse effects on you. The only one who can save you now is the Lu family, and you are the only one who can save you.
Only by marrying Bai Qing and becoming Comrade Linsong's son-in-law can you be safe and sound."
Wang Zhanhong's tone was very serious, as was the profound meaning of his words.
Li Yuanlang was completely stunned.
It seemed that the higher-ups did not believe him, let alone forgive him, for his burning of the notebook.
"Second uncle, this matter..."
Wang Zhanhong waved his hand bluntly, "Whether you burn it or keep it privately, there is only one answer now, that is, you have seen this thing."
"You know what this involves even if I don't tell you. If we really want to track it down, will you still get something good to eat?"
"You are a smart person. I don't need to explain the truth in detail. You will think clearly. To put it bluntly, the Lu family is your safest haven at the moment. In order to protect you, Comrade Linsong asked you to become his dragon.
Quick son-in-law."
Wang Zhanhong put out the cigarette and said earnestly: "Bai Qing loves you deeply. The former number one princess was the ideal partner that many men dream of."
"People must know how to cherish, and more importantly, be content. Yuen Long, put aside your prejudices, forget the unpleasantness of the past, and marry Bai Qing for you and your family. Only then will you turn the corner and live a happy life forever."
When Wang Zhanhong was talking about these words, Li Yuanlang said nothing. He was thinking, weighing, and weighing.
Wang Zhanhong was definitely not trying to scare him with alarmist talk.
Li Yuanlang understood that many people were involved in the notebook, including Lu Linsong, Wang Minghong, and even Yu Jinfeng.
Regardless of whether it is true or false, if this thing spreads, it will definitely cause an uproar.
The reason is very clear. It doesn't matter if Li Yuanlang burns it or keeps it privately. As long as he has read it and knows the contents, he will be the first person to be valued.
This "attention" is not a compliment, it contains all options to shut him up forever.
From this point of view, even if he is the brother of Wang Minghong's daughter-in-law, Wang Minghong has no right to protect him. Only Lu Linsong's intervention is the last straw.
After all, Li Yuanlang had been immersed in officialdom for more than ten years, so how could he not understand the key points?
Even though Wang Zhanhong never mentioned Yu Jinfeng's name, Li Yuanlang knew that Yu Jinfeng was not at ease with him.
As mentioned before, there are a thousand ways to shut him up, any one of which will be a disaster for Li Yuanlang.
Not just him, but also his children and his relatives.
After all, there is just one sentence: Li Yuanlang has no choice!
Seeing Li Yuanlang's silence, Wang Zhanhong enlightened: "You can have your thoughts, but you can't have the idea of not marrying Bai Qing. If you don't like her or love her now, it won't affect your marriage."
"You know the older generation before us. Their marriages were often introduced and arranged by organizations. Many of them got married first and then fell in love. Why don't they still grow old together and be in love for the rest of their lives?"
"Stop worrying, get rid of all distracting thoughts as soon as possible, marry Bai Qing, and live a good life. Besides, Bai Qing is a nice person and doesn't care about your past, so you have nothing to find fault with."
Speaking of this, Wang Zhanhong can be said to be sincere.
Publicly and privately, he admired Li Yuanlang.
It not only exists in Li Yuanlang's character and temperament, but also in the relationship between his nephew Wang Song and Ye Qingrou.
He did not want to see Li Yuanlang suffer. Only by speaking clearly could Li Yuanlang survive the crisis and land safely.
After a long while, Li Yuanlang smoked two cigarettes in succession before nodding helplessly, "Second uncle, I accept it."
Just a few words were the first major compromise Li Yuanlang had made in thirty-seven years.
Not only for himself, but also for the sake of his children.
This is the main reason for compromise.
As soon as he said these words, Wang Zhanhong finally let go of his worries, and his solemn and stern expression gradually softened.
Wang Zhanhong smiled heartily, "That's right, Yuen Long, those who understand the current affairs are heroes. I believe this is the most correct choice you have made in your life!"
"Okay, it's already noon, let's go and have a drink with my second uncle!"
As the host, Liu Haozhun accompanied Wang Zhanhong to drink and talk.
Li Yuanlang felt mixed emotions in his heart, and he forced himself to smile, but to his surprise, he drank only half a kilogram of wine and became drunk.
On the way back, I vomited five times in a row and almost vomited out my intestines.
If you are not drunk with wine, everyone will get drunk.
If you feel depressed, you will get drunk no matter what you drink.
After returning to Baizhou, Li Yuanlang finally felt better.
But he still smelled of alcohol.
I didn't go to the unit, but went directly back to the station and took a hot bath to relieve my boredom.
During this period, the phone never stopped buzzing.
On the way back, my cell phone kept ringing.
Mu Guangsen blocked Secretary Li back because he was not feeling well.
Only the calls of Lu Shide and Wang Zhishan were answered by him personally.
Naturally, they were all congratulatory calls.
Where does joy come from?
What others saw was that he moved forward and became the veritable third-in-command in Baizhou.
Only Li Yuanlang knew the pain in his heart.
