Chapter 138 All the counties were eager to make a move.
Dawei felt dizzy, but he could already tell that the person in front of him was not Xiaodan.
When you're drunk, your mind doesn't function normally, but you don't lose the ability to think.
When your mind is foggy, you may panic. Taking a shower can help you regain your clarity.
But David didn't do that.
He was suffering in his heart.
The things that were suppressed before have not been fully released.
He couldn't express his suffering.
While drinking in the private room, when he was still sober, Dawei repeatedly called on Wu Maocai, telling him to speak up if he had something to say.
But Wu Maocai didn't say anything, only that it was about drinking.
David knew that Wu Maocai's goal tonight was to get him drunk.
Let's go along with Wu Maocai's suggestion.
Since you've chosen this comrade-in-arms, trust him. You're now in a community of shared interests, and Wu Maocai has no reason to harm you.
At this moment, the last vestige of clarity and reason vanished completely with Xiao Lili's gentle whispers and her slowly closing eyes. Dawei chose to remain passive...
Xiao Lili cupped Dawei's face in her hands, feeling extremely excited, and lowered her head to kiss his forehead.
Then, let's start the betting!
Xiao Lili has staked everything on this tonight.
She distanced herself from Zhou Xiangzhang's camp, and tonight she did something that even she herself found somewhat crazy.
She gambled on David's conscience, on her own charm, and on the skills and abilities she had accumulated...
A gust of wind picked up outside.
Large raindrops pattered against the glass.
David dreamt of a figure sitting by the window, holding a paintbrush and painting in a sunny room...
As dawn was breaking.
Xiao Lili returned to her residential compound.
Wu Maocai hadn't gone to sleep yet. When he saw her car return, he immediately went downstairs.
Qin Hongmei was awakened by his noise: "What time is it? What are you going to do now?"
"work."
"What business do you need to take care of at this time?"
"You'd better not stop me, don't ask any questions. If you delay my business, I'll file for divorce immediately!"
He suddenly became assertive, and he didn't know why.
Perhaps it was Xiao Lili's drive to climb the social ladder.
Wu Maocai felt that he saw his own reflection in Xiao Lili, and suddenly he understood and respected that woman a little.
Qin Hongmei sat on the bed rubbing her eyes, somewhat confused, and hadn't really heard clearly.
Wu Maocai went downstairs.
Qin Hongmei collapsed and fell fast asleep again.
Mao Cai's first attempt at asserting himself backfired spectacularly; he failed to stand up to Qin Hongmei.
After going downstairs, I ran to the red car and rolled down the driver's side window.
Xiao Lili looked tired, her makeup was smudged, her eyes were unfocused, and she mechanically and slowly searched for the spare room key. Without looking at Wu Maocai, she handed him the room key.
Wu Maocai took it with both hands, stared intently at Xiao Lili, and the two remained silent for a few seconds.
"I'll go to the hotel to take care of him."
"Okay, go ahead."
Wu Maocai already had the answer: Xiao Lili had indeed done the job.
Dawei had drunk too much and was alone in the hotel. Wu Maocai was worried and rushed over to the hotel room to check on him.
The smell in the room made his nose twitch slightly.
Walking to the bedside, I saw Dawei sleeping soundly with his shirt off, and I felt relieved.
He lay down on the sofa outside the suite and made do with sleeping until dawn.
Wu Maocai didn't have to go to work today, but he still woke up very early. That's just how his biological clock is. He went into the room to check on Dawei and saw that he was still sleeping. So Wu Maocai just lay outside without making a sound and didn't disturb him.
David was awakened by thirst.
He sat up, picked up the bottled water from the bedside table, gulped down half of it, and then let out a long sigh.
He was unaware that someone was lying outside, combing their hair and thinking about what had happened the night before.
It is certain that a woman came into the house.
That feeling wasn't a dream; you can't feel things like temperature when you're dreaming.
Looking at the pillows on the hotel bed, I picked up a long, black hair from beside it...
David lit a cigarette, trying hard to remember who it was last night.
He was smoking when he turned around and saw a pair of legs at the door. He was so startled that he cried out, and upon closer inspection, he saw that it was Wu Maocai at the door.
Director Wu grinned: "You're awake. Are you hungry? Want to eat at the hotel or go home?"
David tucked the long hair into the blanket: "You're here too."
"Yes, I went home and lay down for a while last night, but I was worried, so I came back."
I brought you to this hotel, and I'll be responsible for seeing you out of the hotel later.
There was a deeper meaning to his words. He meant that if anyone asked, Wu Maocai could use this as a shield and say that he lived with County Chief Chen and that nothing happened last night.
David gave a soft "hmm," feeling grateful.
Wu Mao smiled knowingly.
We're both intelligent people, so we'll leave it at that; some things can't be said outright.
Back home, Chen Shouren and his wife looked at Dawei, who had returned with a hangover, with great concern on their faces.
Wu Maocai helped Dawei into the house and explained from the side, "Uncle and Aunt, don't worry, County Chief Chen is fine. He'll be alright after he's had his fill of alcohol. There's nothing wrong with him."
David took some clean clothes to wash up.
Taking a shower allows you to determine exactly what happened last night.
I already know who it is.
Because Xiao Lili just sent me a message.
She said she forgot her lipstick at the hotel and asked if it would be convenient for her to bring it back.
This is the same brand as Dawei Mingpai.
Dawei didn't reply to the message, and Xiao Lili didn't ask any more questions, because Xiao Lili had already achieved her goal.
After taking a shower, Dawei lay in bed, took out his phone to check, but still hadn't received a text message reply from Wang Xiaodan.
He wanted to call and ask her where she was and if she was safe.
Then I thought, someone like Sister Xiaodan always has people following her and protecting her wherever she goes.
If something happens, Godfather will definitely be the first to know, and Dawei will find out soon after.
The fact that there is no news is the best news, which means that Sister Xiaodan is safe and his worries are completely unnecessary.
Xiao Dan isn't replying to messages because she doesn't want to.
If he calls again, it will only annoy Xiaodan more.
So, Dawei had no choice but to suppress his worries and log into the county's work email to check.
The Provincial Department of Agriculture has replied to the email, only confirming receipt.
The 230 million yuan in subsidies applied for by Yuanshan County will be used entirely to establish a fruit company and develop the navel orange industry.
This was the biggest thing Dawei had done since taking office, so he naturally attached great importance to it.
Just like taking an exam, officialdom values results.
Without results, empty words will not convince anyone.
Even if the powerful figures behind the scenes want to promote someone, they can't, because it's difficult to gain the support of the masses.
Everyone admires those who are better than themselves and respects those who can accomplish great things that are difficult for ordinary people to do.
Meanwhile, in the provincial capital, Ding Tingting and Director Ye from the Provincial Department of Agriculture were having morning tea together.
Whenever she has free time, Ding Tingting invites Director Ye out for dinner to strengthen their friendship and inquire about the provincial agricultural department's 1 billion yuan agricultural assistance fund.
The Department of Agriculture officially made this public last week.
Each county is eager to make a move.
Director Ye, who was in charge of the first step, received an application from Yuanshan County, which included a three-year agricultural development plan for Yuanshan County, which Dawei and Wu Maocai had worked overtime to prepare.
"Sister, what's the government's attitude towards the Yuanshan County proposal now?"
