Chapter 1034

After listening, Zheng Tulu was very satisfied and wanted to take the opportunity to restore his image in Lan Mei's heart. He took a puff of a cigarette and said with a laugh: "Division Chief Lan's work report is very detailed, and the terms and clauses are summarized in an orderly manner. Here I want to name and praise Division Chief Lan. The Planning Division's work this year is very outstanding, no matter from which aspect. Of course, part of it may be related to the Planning Division supplementing fresh blood in the second half of this year, but the most important thing is that the Planning Division has a leader like Division Chief Lan to set an example, which has played a great role. Here I call on leaders of other departments to learn from our comrade Little Lan of the Planning Division. I will make a decision myself for this year's advanced individual: nominate comrade Little Lan. The advanced department is, of course, the Planning Division under the leadership of Division Chief Lan. Also, for the new comrades who came to the unit this year, according to the tradition of our Construction Committee, we must also select outstanding new comrades. Let's leave this honor to everyone for a secret ballot."

Lan Mei didn't know what kind of play Zheng Tulu was singing, suddenly praising herself so unsparingly in front of other leaders. She felt a bit comfortable in her heart, and being stared at by others, she felt a bit hot on her face, so she lowered her head modestly.

"Little Han, distribute them," Ma Debang whispered to Han Rui.

So Han Rui took dozens of printed ballots and distributed them to everyone present in turn. Getting the so-called ballots, Lan Mei naturally wrote Zhao Desan's name without thinking. But others, out of face for Zheng Tulu, wrote Zheng Ru's name without exception.

A few minutes later, Han Rui collected the ballots. Zheng Tulu took the ballots and looked at a few. As expected, they were all his daughter's name. Although the title of outstanding new comrade didn't have much weight, it was an honor, and it looked good to write on the resume when being promoted.

"Let our Deputy Director Ma and Little Han count the ballot results for us," Zheng Tulu said with a satisfied smile, handing the ballots to Han Rui.

According to the procedure, Ma Debang picked up each ballot, showed the front to everyone, and read it out, while Han Rui recorded it on the side. After more than ten minutes of screening and recording, the ballot counting ended. Ma Debang announced loudly: "Planning Division comrade Zheng Ru 14 votes, Planning Division comrade Zhao Desan 2 votes, Archives Management Division comrade Meng Jiahui 1 vote. According to the statistical results, the outstanding new comrade is... Planning Division comrade Zheng Ru."

Everyone knew this result in their hearts. After the announcement, no one whispered in private as usual. Everyone just looked at each other tacitly. This result was also within Lan Mei's expectations. If it were selected according to the situation she mastered, it would definitely be Zhao Desan. But she only had one ballot in her hand, and she guessed that the other ballot was cast for Zhao Desan by Ma Debang. But two ballots were of no help at all.

Zheng Tulu was very satisfied with this result. Seeing that everyone had no objections, he said with a laugh: "Today's year-end summary meeting ends here. Next, I announce one thing: during the seven-day New Year holiday, our unit plans to organize leaders of all departments to go to Hainan for study and inspection. After the meeting, everyone register your ID card numbers with Little Han. The unit will book air tickets uniformly. Go back and prepare."

Speaking of going to Hainan for inspection, everyone knew that this kind of so-called inspection to Hainan Island was actually just traveling for the New Year. It was just using the name of unit inspection to travel at public expense without having to pay a penny. So hearing Zheng Tulu announce this news, the conference room suddenly cheered.

This was not the first time Zheng Tulu had organized everyone to travel at public expense in the name of inspection. Traveling with a group of leaders was boring. Lan Mei didn't seem very interested.

"Alright, today's meeting ends here. Dismissed," Zheng Tulu got up and walked out of the conference room first. Others were still happily talking to each other about going to Hainan for tourism. After coming out of the conference room and returning to the office, Lan Mei picked up her phone and dialed Zhao Desan's number.

Zhao Desan had been rolling on the bed in pain because of his big treasure all morning. By this time, it was slightly better. It didn't hurt much, and he was preparing to make up for the sleep he didn't get last night when the phone rang.

Picking it up and seeing it was Division Chief Lan calling, he answered: "Division Chief Lan, what's wrong?"

"Comrade Comrade Xiao Zhao, is that place better?" Lan Mei asked a bit embarrassedly. Thinking of the place he was injured being his most proud thing made her feel a bit funny.

Zhao Desan thought to himself that Division Chief Lan was quite concerned about him, so he laughed and said: "Much better."

Lan Mei said "Oh" and said: "The year-end summary meeting is over. The outstanding new comrade is Zheng Ru. I nominated you, but leaders of other departments all nominated Zheng Ru, so..."

This was within Zhao Desan's expectations. He had never counted on anything, so he said indifferently: "If it is, it is."

As long as Zhao Desan could think it through, Lan Mei felt more comfortable in her heart and said: "During the New Year holiday, the unit is organizing department leaders to go to Hainan for inspection. Do you think I should go?"

"Inspection? Going for inspection during the holiday? What to inspect?" Zhao Desan asked suspiciously.

Lan Mei smiled faintly and said: "To put it bluntly, it's going for tourism."

Zhao Desan asked: "Public expense, right?"

Lan Mei said: "Mm, it must be public expense."

Zhao Desan said without thinking: "Then Division Chief Lan, you should go. With such a good thing, what is there to hesitate about?"

Lan Mei said somewhat shyly: "I... I'm going alone, it's boring. If I could go with you, Comrade Comrade Xiao Zhao, to relax, it would be good."

Hearing Division Chief Lan say this, Zhao Desan was overjoyed. He already understood that through his "unremitting efforts," he had basically conquered Division Chief Lan, this cold-blooded young woman who seemed arrogant and unapproachable to outsiders. "But I'm not a leader, there's no share for me," Zhao Desan said helplessly.

Lan Mei thought for a while and said hesitantly: "How about... how about we meet in Sanya, how about that?"

"Division Chief Lan, you mean... let me go too?" Zhao Desan asked.

"Mm," Lan Mei nodded, "I don't need you to pay. I'll give you all the money you spend, is that okay?"

It seemed this Division Chief Lan was truly lacking love. After being conquered by him in bed, she was a bit devoted to him. Zhao Desan thought carefully for a while and felt that if he stayed with Sister Su during the New Year, it would be boring. He had been sleeping in the same bed every night for more than half a year. If he didn't have some space during the New Year holiday, he would truly be suffocated. After considering for a while, he said: "Alright, when?"

"The unit is on holiday the day after tomorrow, it might be the day after that for the flight. If you've considered it, hurry up and book the ticket. Tickets are very tight these two days," Lan Mei said overjoyed.

Zhao Desan said: "Alright."

After caring for each other for a while, Zhao Desan hung up the phone, dragged his body with unspeakable hidden pain, walked out of the villa, took a taxi at the back door of the residential area to the city, queued for half an hour at the ticket agency, and finally bought a ticket to Sanya for the day after tomorrow. On the way back, he called Lan Mei.

At this time, Zhang Hui happened to knock on Lan Mei's office door. Lan Mei's phone rang. Seeing it was Zhao Desan calling, she hung up directly.

"Division Chief Lan, I came over yesterday to get the commencement report. Your Planning Division's comrade Comrade Comrade Xiao Zhao said to let me find him today, but he's not here today, really." Zhang Hui said with some dissatisfaction as soon as she came in.

Lan Mei explained with a faint smile: "Comrade Comrade Xiao Zhao is not feeling well today and didn't come to work. The procedures are all done, it just troubled Manager Zhang to run a few more times." While speaking, she took the completed procedures from the table and handed them to her.

Zhang Hui walked up, took it, looked at it, and said with a smile: "Then thank you, Division Chief Lan." ===== CHAPTER 1035 =====
