Chapter 2069: There shouldn't be anything going on

~9 min read 1,675 words

Wu Min lowered her eyebrows and pondered for a moment, then raised her deep, charming large eyes to look at Zhao Desan and said, "How about this, Xiao Zhao, you shouldn't have anything going on tonight, right?"

"No... nothing going on." As soon as Zhao Desan heard Wu Min ask him this, he replied without hesitation.

Wu Min said, "That's good. How about this: since I've troubled you so much this afternoon, I'll treat you to dinner tonight, how about that?"

"Great!" Thinking that he could continue to spend time alone with Wu Min for dinner, Zhao Desan agreed almost without hesitation.

Seeing Zhao Desan agree so readily, Wu Min smiled slightly and said, "Then let's go." Saying this, she got up from her chair, packed her handbag, led Zhao Desan out of the office, locked the door, and went down the administrative building.

At this time, the sunset had completely set, and almost only Wu Min and Zhao Desan were left in the district committee. The surroundings were quiet, with only the early autumn crickets chirping in the corners, further setting off the quietness of the surrounding environment.

After getting into the car, Wu Min didn't ask Zhao Desan where he wanted to eat and drove him directly to the city center. Wu Min seemed to have said everything she had to say in the office; she drove the car seriously and was almost silent, which made Zhao Desan feel a bit awkward again. He occasionally peeked at her with the corner of his eye, looking at her high-bridged nose and her defined side profile, which gave people a strong sense of distance and cold beauty. However, after an afternoon of contact, he knew these were all superficial phenomena. In fact, every woman, as long as you can walk into her heart, will understand that all women's hearts are actually very soft. As long as the path to reach them is appropriate, it will be very easy to conquer a woman. Looking at this beautiful and moving official beauty, Zhao Desan truly liked her very much, especially when the evening breeze occasionally blew her ear-length short hair, revealing her fair ear roots. That feeling made him think she was very beautiful. It was a heroic and spirited beauty, a beauty that didn't drag its feet. At this time, Wu Min, who was driving quietly and attentively, was a world apart compared to those fashionable and heavily made-up women on the street. Wu Min, with her capable ear-length short hair and no makeup, was like a lotus flower rising from the water, untainted by the mud, giving people a fresh and refined feeling. Outside the car window were neon-flashing high-rise buildings and pedestrians walking by in a hurry. Inside the car, Zhao Desan was secretly admiring the quiet Wu Min, just like admiring a rare treasure, staring intently and tirelessly, until a sudden evening breeze blew up the collar of Wu Min's white shirt with bright buttons on her chest, revealing a piece of fragrant, snow-white skin as smooth as grease. Zhao Desan's eyes widened like an ox's. Under the evening breeze, the shirt collar fluttered on her chest, and that piece of snow-white skin appeared and disappeared in Zhao Desan's field of vision, exuding an alluring beauty. At this time, the unsuspecting Wu Min exuded a unique mature charm. It was a naturally revealed beauty, not artificial, not deliberate. It seemed that any deliberate action would destroy this peerless beauty.

While Zhao Desan was having wild thoughts, Wu Min drove the car to the entrance of a very famous hot pot restaurant in Xijing. After the car stopped slowly, Zhao Desan quickly came back to his senses before Wu Min turned her head. When Wu Min turned back, Zhao Desan was covering his mouth with his hand to wipe away drool.

"Are you sleepy?" Seeing Zhao Desan's action, Wu Min thought he was about to yawn.

"A little." Zhao Desan nodded to cover it up. Taking advantage of Wu Min not paying attention, he quickly wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth, stretched his arms, and immediately looked energetic, saying, "I'm not sleepy now."

Wu Min smiled, opened the car door, and got out. Zhao Desan also followed her out and walked into the hot pot restaurant with Wu Min.

Finding a two-person seat in the corner, they sat down. After ordering the soup base and side dishes, Wu Min asked Zhao Desan, "Do you drink?"

Being able to share dinner alone with this official beauty, Wu Min, with delicacies and fine wine, was the best thing ever. Maybe something would happen after getting drunk? Zhao Desan thought to himself mischievously, but after all, he wasn't familiar with Wu Min yet, so he couldn't appear too casual. He had to disguise himself. So, he handed the decision to Wu Min and said with a smile, "District Mayor Wu, you decide. If you want to drink, I'll accompany you for a bit."

Zhao Desan's handing over of the power was excellent. Wu Min originally didn't want to drink, but after Zhao Desan said that, she felt that it wouldn't do if she didn't drink a little. So, she smiled slightly and said, "Then let's drink a little."

"Great!" Wu Min's statement was exactly what Zhao Desan wanted. He blurted it out almost without hesitation, secretly rejoicing. After speaking, he turned and waved to the waiter.

The waiter quickly came over and asked politely, "Excuse me, sir, what service do you need?"

"Bring a bottle of Xifeng Six Years." Zhao Desan said without hesitation. The reason he wanted to drink this wine was that after drinking so much wine, he felt that Xifeng wine had a strong kick and was easy to get drunk on.

Unexpectedly, Wu Min suddenly stopped the waiter and said, "Two bottles of beer will do." After speaking, she said to Zhao Desan, "Let's each have a bottle of beer and drink a little less."

Zhao Desan knew that Wu Min must have had reservations. He appeared very generous and said, "District Mayor Wu, how can one bottle of beer each be enough? This is our first time eating alone together; shouldn't we drink some white liquor?"

Wu Min insisted with a smile, "Let's have beer. I drank a bit too much last night, and my head still hurts a little, so I can't drink white liquor."

Seeing Wu Min being so insistent, and this reason gave him no good excuse to insist on his own way, he laughed with some unwillingness and said, "Alright then, I'll listen to you, District Mayor Wu. You're the leader."

Wu Min took a sip of tea and corrected his words, "Outside of work, there's no leader or not. Besides, you're from the Provincial Construction Commission, and I'm from the district committee. Even if I were a leader, I couldn't lead you."

"The Party and the government are one family. In the end, District Mayor Wu, you are still my leader." Zhao Desan said playfully with a smile.

Wu Min was amused by Zhao Desan and laughed, "If you were in our district construction commission, I could really lead you."

"It's a pity I'm not." Zhao Desan said with a smile and some regret.

Talking about this topic, it was exactly what Wu Min was thinking. Since yesterday, after experiencing the ability of this young man, Zhao Desan, Wu Min had the idea of recruiting him under her command. So, she said in a half-joking tone, "I really want you, Xiao Zhao, to come and work in our district. Now the district is lacking young comrades with your passion and ability."

Zhao Desan also responded in a joking tone, "Then District Mayor Wu, you should just transfer me to your district construction commission, and I can better assist you, District Mayor Wu."

Wu Min smiled faintly. It wasn't that she didn't have this idea, but even if she did, it wasn't convenient for her to tell the higher-ups, because she felt that for a young and capable cadre like Zhao Desan, no matter which unit he was in, the unit's leaders wouldn't let him go easily. Thinking this, she joked, "Even if I wanted you to work in the district construction commission, you would have to agree yourself. I think you definitely wouldn't agree. Why would you be willing to lower yourself from the Provincial Construction Commission to the District Construction Commission, right?"

Unexpectedly, Zhao Desan's answer surprised Wu Min. She saw him answer without even thinking, "I agree. As long as District Mayor Wu can transfer me to the District Construction Commission, I will definitely agree."

After hearing Zhao Desan's answer, Wu Min was clearly a bit surprised. She widened her beautiful watery eyes slightly, raised her eyebrows gently, and asked with some surprise, "Are you really willing to come and work in our District Construction Commission?"

"I am willing." Zhao Desan answered with a grin.

His appearance, sometimes serious and sometimes playful, made Wu Min unsure if this was his true thought. She smiled with some disappointment and said, "You kid, you must be joking. Someone with as much future as you, why would you be willing to descend from the Provincial Construction Commission to the District Construction Commission? Besides, our Deputy Secretary Su is your cousin. With this relationship, you have a bright future in the Provincial Construction Commission. You definitely wouldn't ruin your own future."

What Zhao Desan avoided most was others always talking about Su Qing in front of him, and he was most afraid of others looking at him through colored glasses. Hearing someone mention Su Qing in front of him again, as if feeling that his future official career depended entirely on Su Qing, Zhao Desan became a bit anxious and said, "District Mayor Wu, my ability to reach the position of Deputy Division Chief has nothing to do with Deputy Secretary Su. I relied entirely on my own strength to get there." ===== CHAPTER 2070 =====
