Ye Ming was startled when he saw Gong Zhichao suddenly burst into tears. He patted Gong Zhichao on the shoulder a little at a loss and said, "Brother Chao, stop saying these words. You have said many times: We are good brothers, good brothers." Don't say these words of thanks. Besides: you have helped me so much in the past. If you want to say thank you, I have a lot of words of thanks to say to you... By the way, is your case okay? The leaders of the Provincial Public Security Department’s inspection team are not here to embarrass you.”
Before Gong Zhichao could answer, Tao Yong showed a smile on his face and interjected: "Director Ye, Xiao Gong and I came here specifically to thank you. Don't be humble. We didn't expect that Director Ye, one of your The phone call was so powerful that it not only changed the nature of Xiao Gong's case, but also the so-called task force was cancelled."
At this point, he suppressed his smile, looked remorseful, patted his face gently, and said: "Director Ye, in addition to thanking you, I also want to express my deepest gratitude to you. I apologize. Just now at the Blue Moon Cabaret, because Director Bi and I were both in a mess and without any sense of proportion, we said some very excessive and hurtful words to you. Looking back now, I am so ashamed that I wish I could organize myself. I can get into the cracks in the ground. I know that Director Ye is very lucky. Although he is young, his temper is not comparable to that of ordinary people. Therefore, Director Ye please understand the anxious mood that Director Bi and I just felt, and don't care about our impulsive and rude feelings. words."
As he said that, he cupped his fists and made a bow to Ye Ming.
What Ye Ming hates the most is this kind of snob who is arrogant and respectful at the same time. He doesn't want to accept his apology and said coldly: "County Magistrate Tao, you and Director Bi are both big leaders in the county. Teach me a lesson." It's normal for juniors and civil servants to do this. Although what you just said is hard to hear, you are the superiors. No matter how hard it is, I have to listen and endure it, right? So, if you say you apologize to me, I really do. I don’t dare to take it seriously.”
Seeing that he didn't give him any face, Tao Yong suddenly looked extremely embarrassed, but he didn't dare to get angry with him, so he could only rub his fat palms and said: "Director Ye, you said this, I am even more ashamed. Let’s do this: tonight, I’ll treat Director Ye to dinner, have three drinks at the wine table, and apologize to Director Ye. How about it? Captain Chen from the Criminal Investigation Corps of the Provincial Public Security Department and Director Liang from our municipal bureau are also here. Then we will have a few glasses of wine together and eliminate all the unhappiness at the wine table. From now on, you will still be my little brother, and I will still be your big brother. In the future, in Xinlang County, if anything happens to your brother, As the big brother, I will definitely take the lead and help you solve your problems. Please give me this face tonight. Captain Chen and Director Liang also want to get acquainted with this young talent like you."
Ye Ming shook his head and said: "County Magistrate Tao, you are serious. It's not that I don't want to give you face. I really have other things to do tonight. I have already made an appointment with someone, so I can't break the appointment. Also, I am now An important document is being drafted, and it will be given to Director Zou for review before getting off work. Therefore, I can't chat with you two now. I must revise this document as soon as possible... Brother Chao, wait until I finish this matter. I'll treat you to dinner in two days, and I'll toast you with a few glasses of wine to calm your nerves and eliminate your bad luck. I'm really sorry that I don't have time to spend time with you and County Magistrate Tao today."
Tao Yong saw that he had begged him humbly for so long, and that he not only refused to give him face, but also started to issue orders to expel guests. He couldn't help but blush, and felt very angry in his heart. He wanted to scold him on the spot, but when he thought of his powerful strength , thinking that Captain Chen Guitian and Director Liang Tanghua were still waiting to see him, the anger in his heart disappeared invisibly. He was very unwilling to smash his fat lips, and wanted to say a few good words to win over Ye Ming to agree to attend tonight. The dinner he held for Chen Guitian and Liang Tonghua,
However, before he could say anything, Gong Zhichao took his hand and said: "County Magistrate Tao, you have also seen that Brother Ye Ming is indeed drafting documents now. He has another appointment in the evening. Forget it today. If you want to invite Brother Ye Ming 1 drinks, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future, there is no need to rush, right?"
Gong Zhichao knew that Ye Ming was not here for him, but for Tao Yong, so he issued an eviction order now. Moreover, he himself was very disdainful of Tao Yong and Bi Huafeng's ruthless performance in Blue Moon just now, and felt that Ye Ming did not give Tao Yong face, which is what the question meant. If it were him, if he had just suffered what he had just endured, he would definitely not agree to go drinking with Tao Yong again.
Therefore, he pulled Tao Yong out of Ye Ming's office in time.
The two people drove to Xinleng Hotel. Tao Yong asked Gong Zhichao to go back first and went upstairs to accompany Director Liang and Captain Chen.
When Liang Tanghua and Chen Guitian saw that he did not invite Ye Ming, their faces showed displeasure and disappointment.
Liang Tanghua asked dissatisfiedly: "Tao Yong, didn't you say you have a good relationship with Director Xiaoye? Why did you go to his bureau in person and didn't invite him over?"
Tao Yong blushed, smiled awkwardly, and continued to lie: "Director Liang, after Ye Ming returned to their bureau, he immediately went to inspect the taxpayers and couldn't come back for a while. I originally wanted to make an appointment. He had dinner, but he said that tonight was his girlfriend's birthday and he had to accompany her, so he didn't have time to drink with the two leaders. However, he said that he would visit the two leaders in person tomorrow and invite them The leader drinks.”
While lying, Tao Yong had already made a plan: no matter what method he used tomorrow, he would have to invite Ye Ming to accompany Captain Chen and Director Liang. If that didn't work, he would go to Ye Ming's leader Zou as the deputy county magistrate. Civilization, let him come forward and drag him over to the banquet...
Naturally, Liang Tanghua and Chen Guitian didn't know that what Tao Yong just said was a big lie. They both shook their heads with regret.
Chen Guitian smiled and laughed at himself and said: "Director Liang, all promising and capable people have great personalities. Director Xiao Ye has such a good relationship, such a deep background, and outstanding abilities, so it is inevitable that he has a bit of personality. , let’s do this, let’s wait patiently for one more night, and then have a good chat with Director Xiaoye tomorrow.”
Liang Tanghua smiled helplessly and said to Tao Yong: "Well, since Director Xiaoye won't come today, let's get down to business. You should arrange for someone to go to the First Detention Center of the Municipal Bureau to pick up the four men under Gong Zhichao. At the same time, you inform the party committee members in your bureau that there will be a meeting at the county bureau at 7:30 tonight, and I will convey to you the relevant information about the Gong Zhichao case."
