After hanging up the phone from Hou Wen, Dong Xuebin stopped packing his suitcase. He just threw his things on the bed and smoothed his sleeves in front of the mirror.
"I'm leaving first. Let's go have something to eat with Hou Wen."
"Leaving now? Don't you care about your luggage?"
"Please pack it up, there are some of your clothes in there too."
"Sister Xie, you are tired. You have to go to the development zone for research later."
"You're just lazy. If I weren't around, wouldn't you even be able to take off your clothes?"
"Yes, come back early after dinner to take off your clothes, Sister Xie, haha."
"Hey, if you say you're fat and you're out of breath, just be angry with me. Okay, just wait until I come back to pack your clothes and luggage. Don't worry about it. Just go about your business. I'll leave."
"Drink less."
"I know, don't worry about it."
"There may be activities in the evening, let's wait and see."
"Sure, if you need anything, call us. We're not far away, we're nearby."
After going out, Dong Xuebin hummed a little tune and took the elevator downstairs. He was in a good mood. In the hall downstairs, Dong Xuebin saw Hou Wen who was sitting in the rest area waiting for him. He smiled and waved to him, and Hou Wen greeted him.
I looked at him, glared at him, didn't say anything to him, just made a gesture and left the hotel first. I didn't let the doorman call a taxi, but walked to the west, not far from the Royal Hotel.
Hotel, Hou Wen probably checked the address before he came, and knew that there was a pretty good hotel here. Seeing that he didn't say anything, Dong Xuebin also smiled, and without saying anything, he quickly followed him, and they entered the hotel together.
's gate.
in.
Hou Wendao: "You don't want a private room?"
Dong Xuebin said: "It's just the two of us, what else can we do in a private room?"
"Okay, then just lean inside and walk." Hou Wen went first.
Originally, the two of them agreed to walk around and have fun before eating, but Hou Wen obviously had a lot to ask, so they went directly to the hotel, where it was more convenient to talk. It wasn't even meal time yet.
It was before four o'clock, and there was basically no one in the restaurant. They chose a table in a corner, which was very secluded. Dong Xuebin liked this environment very much. When the waiter came, he ordered a few dishes at random.
The waiter left.
Hou Wen's eyes stared wide at Liu'er, and he patted the table angrily, "Tell me, tell me the truth quickly, or I won't be polite!"
"Why are you so rude?"
"Waiter! Get two bottles of Maotai!"
"…You still want me to tell the truth after drinking?"
"Should you explain it yourself or should I force it out for you?"
Dong Xuebin laughed and said: "Actually, there is nothing that cannot be said. The main thing is that there are too many things and I don't know where to start."
Hou Wendao: "First tell me how you married Secretary Xie, hurry up!"
Dong Xuebin smiled and said: "I met her on the street. At that time, I had just been admitted to the civil service. Later, Huilan's wallet was stolen. I happened to see it, so I went up and caught the thief. Well,
When the relationship really progressed, it was a few months later. Once someone fell into the river, Huilan went into the water to save the person. As a result, the person was saved by her, but Huilan's feet were entangled in water plants.
I almost didn't make it out, but I happened to catch him, so I jumped into the water to save him and got my lover out. This is how our relationship progressed."
Hou Wen was excited when he heard this, "Hey, a hero saves a beauty!"
"Absolutely." Dong Xuebin said: "After that, there are all kinds of things. She helps me, I help her, and I don't know what to do."
Hou Wen said jealously: "You are lucky!"
Dong Xuebin said with emotion: "Yeah, I actually didn't expect that she would marry me. It feels like a dream. She is older, has a higher rank, and has a background in her family. Hey, I don't need to brag about how good we are.
To be honest, I really feel that I am not good enough for her. I have always felt this way, so after I got married, I just followed her and didn’t let her cook, wash clothes, or wash dishes.
Basically, I do all the work at home. Even if she wants to wash her hands with chopsticks, I am reluctant to let her touch the dishwasher for fear of burning her hands."
Hou Wen felt the same way and said: "That's the case. If I can marry such a powerful wife, no, even if I marry a wife who is one-fifth as good as yours, I will definitely support her every day, and nothing else.
It would be so honorable to take my daughter-in-law out at the critical moment. Just for this, she can stay away from work all her life."
Dong Xuebin said happily: "It's superficial."
"I'm just superficial, and I've never been noble." Hou Wen disagreed, "Don't talk about me, you're just getting a good deal now!"
Dong Xuebin said: "Actually, that's all."
Hou Wen pointed at him and said, "Did you see that he started to tremble after just saying a few words?"
Dong Xuebin laughed, "Haha, it's useless for you to be envious."
"I pretty much know what happened between you and your wife. A hero saves a beauty, and love grows over time. Well, it makes sense." Hou Wen asked again: "But how did you get to that level? A senior level? I'll go, you
How old are you? You are twenty-six years old! How could you lift your weight so fast?"
Dong Xuebin said: "They are all mentioned out of the ordinary."
"Then you can't make an exception every half a year!" Hou Wen said speechlessly: "Normal organizational procedures, the fastest is to mention it every three years, and it is still a small amount, but you have been promoted to four levels in a row just three years after entering the system.
?Deputy section, main section, deputy section, main section. On average, you have to make an exception once in less than a year! It has to be the kind of exception to the greatest extent, otherwise the section staff will go to the deputy section, and the deputy section will go to the main section and deputy section
To get to the point, this is all a hurdle. Not to mention that you have no background. Even those with background would not dare to ride on the rocket like this, and they won’t be scolded to death? Even if the leadership and the Organization Department can agree, the Discipline Inspection Commission will not
Maybe you are indifferent, so when I heard that you were in a senior position, I was dumbfounded!"
Dong Xuebin paused slightly, "What I have done step by step in the past few years is not relying on any background. I have a relationship like my lover, but I still rely on myself."
"What political achievements have you accomplished?" Hou Wen asked curiously.
Dong Xuebin said: "You should know about the earthquake in Fenzhou City, right?"
Hou Wen said matter-of-factly: "I know, who doesn't know about such a big earthquake?"
Dong Xuebin said, "I was working in Fenzhou City at the time. I predicted earthquakes through the reactions of some animals. I found someone to publish an article in the propaganda department, which caused many people to evacuate to other cities and avoided many casualties.
Then the earthquake came, and I saved many people."
Hou Wen was suddenly startled and stared at him without moving.
"What's wrong?" Dong Xuebin touched his face.
Hou Wen shouted: "Damn! That Director Dong mentioned in the news! Is it you who co-authored it?"
Dong Xuebin hummed, "I was working in the Guangming Street Office in the district."
Hou Wen almost fainted, "I have read the news. I scrolled through it countless times. They talked about how Director Dong was doing. I also mentioned the name Dong Xuebin, but your name was too popular. My mind was at that time."
I had an idea in my mind, but I didn’t think about it. I heard that you died? Then you lived again? "
Dong Xuebin said: "I was buried, but luckily I didn't die."
Hou Wen finally understood, "I asked you, why have you been promoted so quickly in recent years? It's not surprising that you have such great political achievements."
Dong Xuebin said with lingering fear: "It's just that I was lucky. In fact, it was quite dangerous several times. If there was a slight mistake, we would not be able to see each other today. Alas, let's not talk about it." Over the years, others have seen it.
Dong Xuebin rose up the ranks step by step, married a beautiful wife, made meritorious service again and again, and was promoted again and again. I envied him, but in fact he had no idea what Dong Xuebin had done behind the scenes. He didn’t even know how many things he had experienced in his near-death experience.
, as he said himself, it is a miracle that he is still alive now and can still drink with old friends here. As long as there is a slower reaction in one link, Dong Xuebin would have died long ago. He has not been going well in the past few years.
, and no successful person has always had smooth sailing. Some people may think that some successful people just rely on luck or are not as strong as themselves, but in fact they may just be blinded by some self-esteem and competitiveness, and they do not see so clearly.
At this time, the dishes were brought out by the waiter one after another.
Dong Xuebin invited Hou Wen to pick up the chopsticks and take a few bites, then filled up the wine.
"Oh, I'm so happy for you." Hou Wen raised his glass, "Come on, let's do it first!"
"Okay." Dong Xuebin also clinked glasses with him. Both of them were very happy, and they were bored. "I'm happy for you too. You live a more comfortable life than me."
Hou Wen waved his hand and said, "You can take it. The little freedom I have is all superficial, or it is all supported by my father. Without my father, I would be nothing in Jiangnan Province. On this point, I
I'm really not as good as you, you really worked hard on your own and worked your way up step by step, unlike me."
Dong Xuebin smiled and said: "You are still humble."
Hou Wendao said: "Isn't this a blow to you? I have always thought that I am doing well. I have food and drink, and sometimes I can act like a tiger and act like a tiger. I live a very comfortable life. But compared with you, I am like this
What does it mean to be comfortable? I use my father's hat to show off my power, but you? You don't need to borrow it from anyone. When you show your work ID, no one is allowed to be polite to you. Who is not allowed to weigh it? What does it mean to be powerful?
This is called awesome!”
"No." Dong Xuebin shook his hand.
"You are now at the top of your game." Hou Wen smiled and stretched out his hand to pat his arm, "Brothers are almost jealous of you. I will rely on you from now on. If you have good things to think of me, I will introduce you to a beautiful girl.
I!"
Dong Xuebin said happily: "Your father is already at that level, why are you still treating me like a slut? I am here because of the nature of my job, and I have the right to check the party style and party discipline. Speaking of real power, Uncle Hou is several blocks higher than me."
, the level is the same, and I’m still pointing you to take care of me!”
"You're just kidding! Your wife is the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee!"
The two of them were flirting with each other for a while, complimenting each other for a while, and chatting happily. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
