Eight hundred and sixtieth chapters self-inflicted humiliation
Zhu Yuewen prides himself on being a talented person and has just been appointed as the deputy mayor. His status is still higher than that of Lin Chuang. Therefore, when he saw his former lover Zhang Jinlu sitting with Lin Chuang, he lowered his eyebrows and was very attentive to pouring water from the pot.
, and looked at Lin Chuang with infatuated eyes from time to time.
Even a fool understands what's going on. This makes Zhu Yuewen, who is not a fool, jealous.
Back then, he failed Zhang Jinlu and got engaged to the daughter of a high-ranking official in Nanjing. He knew that Zhang Jinlu had a fiery personality and deep feelings and would never give up, so he fled Shanghai and went to Nanjing to marry his fiancée.
Today, he returned to his hometown. Although he was called a traitor, he believed that China would perish in the face of powerful Japan. The establishment of a pro-Japanese government was the only way to extinguish the war.
Just like when the Qing soldiers entered the customs, didn't Fan Wencheng and other Han officials also fall into the arms of the Qing people early? Didn't they leave no bad name in history?
Therefore, he believed that he was a real "insightful man" who was ahead of many others. In the future, in the government, he would be regarded as a "founding hero" like Fan Wencheng and Ning Wanwo.
Facts have proved that his decision was correct, and he completed the leap from a scholar to a government official - although this leap came at the expense of national integrity.
When he met Zhang Jinlu again, he found that the girl who admired his literary talents so much had matured a lot and was even more beautiful than before.
When he appeared, Zhang Jinlu's daze and stupidity, including his subsequent indifference, made the extremely talented man interpret it as an unforgettable old love.
Therefore, he wanted to renew their relationship and conquer this beauty in the world again.
With his current status, as long as he first admits yesterday's wrongdoing to Zhang Jinlu, obtains her forgiveness, and then recites a few modern love poems, Zhang Jinlu will definitely come back to him - in this, he is extremely confident.
However, in front of his wife, he did not dare to openly launch his combination routine to Zhang Jinlu, but this did not prevent him from humiliating the ignorant police chief in front of Zhang Jinlu.
After having this idea, Zhu Yuewen couldn't wait any longer.
So, he, who was supposed to be waiting for Lin Chuang to propose a toast, took the initiative to come to Lin Chuang's table with a wine glass in hand.
…
"Your Excellency the Section Chief, Your Excellency the Commander, Your Excellency the Major, Director Ding, Deputy Director Li, and Captain Zhang. I am the deputy mayor. I have little talent and knowledge and am not familiar with government affairs. I hope you can give me some advice." Zhu Yuewen held the wine glass.
Come over, I thought I was very smart and pushed back the hem of my suit with my left hand. I raised the glass with my right hand, bent my body slightly, and said politely to everyone except Lin Chuang.
He thought that everyone would stand up and clink glasses with him and be polite to him.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he said these words, no one else moved except Sato Hyoukimoto who stood up.
When Sato Hyoukimoto took a look, Nakano Yunzi had a sneer on his face and just looked towards Lin Chuang; Fairy Shi Gong didn't even raise her head at all, just eating vegetables; Ding Mocun and Li Shiqun sat upright, glanced at Zhu Yuewen, and then quietly
Glancing at Lin Chuang, Zhang Jinlu looked at Zhu Yuewen with a smile on his face, but did not move at all. Lin Chuang, who was deliberately ignored by Zhu Yuewen, fiddled with his fingers indifferently.
Sato Hyoukimoto understood immediately. Thinking of the "Haoshou" shares he inherited, he immediately sat down again and looked at Lin Chuang with an apology in his eyes.
So embarrassing!
I put in a lot of kind words, but no one said anything to me!
Zhu Yuewen was not stupid and knew that these people were looking at Lin Chuang.
Therefore, he had to explain himself and save his face.
"Don't get me wrong, Director Lin is a subordinate of Mr. Zhu, and Mr. Zhu will be waiting for a toast from Director Lin."
Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked and all looked at Lin Chuang, and Lin Chuang almost laughed out loud: "Haha, this is true, I don't know how high the sky is. You haven't come in with your head and feet, and you haven't done it yet.
How dare you take advantage of the situation in Shanghai? It just so happens that Zhu Daoshan is about to give Xin Jiaguang a hidden thorn in the side, so I will use you as an idiot to show you how much face the 'Smiling Face Demon' has."
Thinking of this, Lin Chuang stood up with a smile.
"Smiling face is a devil", you have to smile.
"I said, what are you doing? Didn't you hear what Deputy Mayor Zhu said? It's too disrespectful to our superiors to sit like this. Miss Yunzi, don't make a toast without having to drink a toast. Come on, raise your glass.
"
"Yes, Chief Lin has spoken, I have to give him this face." As soon as Nakano Yunzi saw Lin Chuang's malicious smile, he knew that he was holding back some bad idea, so he immediately stood up and raised his glass.
As soon as she stood up, everyone stood up and drank with Zhu Yuewen.
"Director Lin, pour the wine!"
Zhu Yuewen didn't know it yet, thinking that Lin Chuang was afraid of him. Seeing that everyone had drank the wine, he was very happy and immediately ordered Lin Chuang to pour wine.
"Okay, okay, yes, yes, we will pour wine when the leader asks." Lin Chuang chuckled, asked for the "pear blossom white" in the waiter's hand, and poured a full glass for each person.
Two and a half cups, for five people, one bottle was not enough, so Lin Chuang asked the waiter to bring two more bottles.
"I said, Miss Yunzi, why don't you give our leader a drink in return? It's a courtesy, don't be too disrespectful." Lin Chuang said after pouring the wine.
"Of course, Vice Mayor Zhu has long been famous for his talents, and he has a smart and graceful manner. I must give him a toast. Vice Mayor Zhu, I am a woman and I don't have the ability to drink. I'll drink. Do it."
." Nakano Yunzi said with a smile.
Being praised by a beautiful woman, a Japanese beauty, and someone she couldn't afford to offend, Zhu Yuewen immediately became excited. She believed that she still had some drinking capacity, so she drank the wine in one gulp very proudly.
After finishing the drink, he glanced at Zhang Jinlu, which meant: "Look, people admire me so much."
And why does Zhang Jinlu's eyes look a bit strange? It's not admiration, but sympathy, pity, or ridicule?
"Hahaha, Vice Mayor Zhu is really refreshing! I am a soldier, and I appreciate such a character. Come on, Vice Mayor Zhu, I also want to toast you. I am a man, so of course I can't do it like the section chief. I
If you do it, as you Chinese would say, do it first to be respectful!"
Sato Hyoukimoto laughed, raised his glass, and drank it all in one gulp.
The commander of the gendarmerie offered a toast. Zhu Yuewen felt extremely honored and did not dare to neglect, so he did it immediately.
"You Chinese believe that good things come in pairs, let's have another drink." Sato Hyoukimoto asked Lin Chuang to pour more wine for the two of them, and said loudly.
Zhu Yuewen didn't eat a bite of the food, and had already downed seven and a half taels of wine. His face was already turning yellow, and the wine was so strong that he really didn't want to drink anymore.
However, Sato Hyoukimoto had already spoken, and he didn't dare not drink. Besides, he was still a face-conscious person, so he had no choice but to drink up the wine.
"Go to the toilet after drinking this cup and spit it out." Zhu Yuewen thought to herself...
