In order to show the importance he attached to Ye Ming, Chen Jianli took great pains and tried his best to receive him. In addition to always treating Ye Ming as the protagonist at the wine table, toasting and flattering him, he also paid attention to Ye Ming's accommodation. Arranged according to the highest standards: Like Hu Deqing, the county committee office opened a separate luxury suite for Ye Ming in the VIP building of Huangyuan Hotel. This suite is on the seventh floor of the VIP building, which also means "seven up and eight down". It is specially prepared for high-ranking officials from the province, and ordinary guests cannot stay there even if they pay.
This suite has a layout of two bedrooms and one living room, and the decoration is extremely luxurious: in the main guest room, the floor is covered with thick red camel hair carpet, the walls are decorated with magnificent lighting, and all mahogany furniture. Facing the door is a spacious and bright room. Through the floor-to-ceiling glass windows, you can see the clear Huangshui River, and you can also see Taiyang Mountain on the other side of the Huangshui River. The view is extremely broad.
The other two bedrooms are also equipped with plasma TVs, leather sofas, mahogany wardrobes and bedside tables, giving them a high-end and classy feel.
Zhou Meiyu brought Ye Ming to the door of this luxurious suite, opened the door for him with the room card in person, then handed the card to his hand, and asked in a low voice: "Chief Ye, although I am the deputy receptionist here, Director, I have rarely been in such a luxurious suite, can I go in with you now to open my eyes?"
Zhou Meiyu said these words with great determination: after all, this was the first time she took the initiative to seduce a man, and she also knew that when she and Ye Ming were both drunk, , I now take the initiative to sit in his room. It is really difficult to predict what will happen next when this lonely man and a woman stay in the same room during lunch break.
Although she was ready to "sacrifice" this time, and she felt a little lucky and secretly happy that she could meet such a "sacrificial person" as Ye Ming, but at this moment, she really When it was about to come, she still felt a little scared, a little uneasy, and still a little unwilling.
Therefore, after she said that she wanted to go and sit in Ye Ming's room, her face immediately burned up, and she looked a little embarrassed and a little shy. She lowered her head, not daring to talk to him. Ye Ming's eyes met.
Ye Ming is now very wary and wary of this Zhou Meiyu, and he also expects that she was arranged by Chen Jianli and others to corrupt and win over him, so he has been making excuses with her, waiting to see how she will deal with what will happen next. The play goes on.
Therefore, after hearing Zhou Meiyu's request, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart, thinking that she seemed to be throwing hooks at him, and he wanted to see what tricks she had next.
So, he smiled heartily, made an invitation gesture to Zhou Meiyu, and said: "Miss Zhou, welcome, I just drank a lot of wine, and now I just want to find someone to chat with to relieve my hangover."
After the two people entered the guest room, Ye Ming looked at the furnishings in the guest room and said a little surprised: "Director Zhou, this room is too luxurious. I am just a small department-level cadre. Why are you, Secretary Chen, so polite?" , which made me feel a little flattered."
Zhou Meiyu smiled charmingly and said softly: "Chief Ye, I heard Secretary Chen say: Although you are young, you are very capable and have a bright future. Moreover, you are the leader of the Provincial Party Committee's Inspection Office. When you reach a position like ours, In this small place, you are the big leaders, so he told us to receive Section Chief Ye well and serve you with all our heart."
After saying this, she quickly started to find slippers for Ye Ming, turned on the TV, and boiled water to make tea.
While she was busy, Ye Ming walked around the room and suddenly saw a transparent zippered handbag placed on the coffee table by the window. The bag contained a cowhide envelope and a package of "Yellow Crane Tower" 1916" cigarettes. In addition, there were several fruits placed next to them, including cherries, apples, lychees, and strawberries. These things were probably prepared in advance by the county party committee office for each member of the investigation team.
Ye Ming saw the cowhide envelope in the bag, and his heart moved. He hurriedly walked over and opened the bag, took out the envelope, and looked inside. He saw a thick stack of hundred-yuan bills. Judging from its thickness, it was probably not big. Ten thousand is also eight thousand.
Ye Ming was a little surprised at first, but then he understood after thinking about it: The reason why Chen Jianli and others placed the red envelopes for the members of the investigation team in everyone's guest room was because the number of red envelopes they gave to each person was different, so it was difficult to keep them together. Then they simply put the red envelopes in everyone's guest room, and their own red envelope should be the largest. Others, such as Hong Xi and other ordinary members of the investigation team, estimated that the red envelope would be at most two thousand yuan or four. Thousand yuan.
After seeing the contents of the bag clearly, Ye Ming raised the cowhide envelope containing the money in his hand, and said with a smile to Zhou Meiyu who was making tea for him: "Director Zhou, this envelope, this pack of cigarettes, these fruits, It’s all extra prepared for us by your county party committee office.”
Zhou Meiyu said "hmm" and said, "Chief Ye, this is our old rule for receiving distinguished guests. A little fruit, a pack of cigarettes, and some meal expenses are all like this."
Although Ye Ming and Zhou Meiyu had an arrogant agreement, he did not want to give Chen Jianli and others any leverage over financial issues, so he threw the cowhide bag on the coffee table, suppressed his smile and said, "Director Zhou, this cigarette and fruits, it’s okay to put them here, but please take this meal fee back to me. We will come to your county to investigate. You arrange food and lodging every day and provide delicious food, so why do we need to miss a meal? As for the fee, right? This is a matter of principle, so I can’t ask for it. Please explain it clearly to Secretary Chen and the others."
Zhou Meiyu has seen many such things. Normally, when leaders see the red envelope placed on the coffee table in the guest room, they will first remain calm and will not look at the money in the red envelope. But as soon as they leave, They would put the red envelope away and accept it with a smile. No one had ever asked for the red envelope to be returned in such a serious manner as Ye Ming.
Therefore, she was a little surprised and said: "Chief Ye, this is really our practice for receiving superiors. There is no need for you to shirk it. Besides, this is a small thing for our county committee and county government, and it is not a bribe." Don’t be afraid of things no matter where you go, right?”
Ye Ming said firmly: "Director Zhou, I have said before: I am not saying that you should not do this, but it is a matter of my principles and bottom line, so please call Secretary Chen or your Zheng Director, please take this red envelope back."
Seeing that his attitude was very firm, Zhou Meiyu did not dare to force herself any further, so she had to call Zheng Xiaoliang.
