Chapter 3688
"What does it have to do with her!" Zhao Desan said angrily. After venting his anger, he realized that he was a bit out of character in front of Sister Wu, so he took out a cigarette, lit it, and suppressed his somewhat indignant emotions.
Wu Min smiled indifferently and said, "How can it not have anything to do with her? Can't you see that Yang Meixia is interested in you? Didn't you feel it?"
"I... but I'm not interested in her." Zhao Desan's reaction was slightly guilty, and then he said, "Even if she is interested in me, she shouldn't oppose your proposal, Sister Wu. Isn't she clearly having an opinion of me!"
Before Zhao Desan came, Wu Min also carefully pondered Yang Meixia's original intention for doing so. In her view, Yang Meixia might not have an opinion of Zhao Desan, but an opinion of her. However, Yang Meixia's opposing opinion at the meeting was not unreasonable. Indeed, Zhao Desan was young and lacked work experience. In officialdom, which emphasizes seniority, this was well known. Although it seemed now that Zhao Desan's work at the District Construction Committee was very outstanding, whether he would have the energy to do both jobs well after holding the position of Director of the District Committee Office concurrently, Wu Min also had certain doubts in her heart and could not be completely sure. Thinking this way, Wu Min asked Zhao Desan, "Xiao Zhao, I think Yang Meixia's opposition is not unreasonable. She might be worried that you won't be able to handle it. If you can't handle it, wouldn't that waste the foundation you laid at the District Construction Committee and negate your previous achievements?"
Although Zhao Desan had not been an official as long as Sister Wu, plus the three years at the Yuyang City Coal Bureau, he had at least five or six years. He was well-versed in a chronic disease of the low efficiency of functional departments in Chinese officialdom, and that was that there were too many functional departments. Often, many things that could be decided in one functional department were usually handled by several functional departments, complicating many simple tasks. If he were in power, the first thing he would do was to streamline the functional departments. And many of the work of the District Committee Office and the District Construction Committee were overlapping. In his view, he was fully capable of holding the top leader positions of these two units at the same time. Hearing Sister Wu's concerns, Zhao Desan said righteously, "Sister Wu, to tell you the truth, from the two years I've been in the district, I think the work mainly responsible for by the District Committee Office and the work of our District Construction Committee have many overlaps. I think the establishment of our country's functional institutions is too complicated. If the institutions are streamlined, the efficiency will definitely go up. So I think I have the ability to hold it concurrently."
Wu Min just liked Zhao Desan's style of being humorous in life and daring to speak out in work. Hearing Zhao Desan directly point out the drawbacks of the country's establishment of functional institutions, Wu Min's appreciation for Zhao Desan went up another level. She smiled faintly and said, "You are right, but this problem is not something you and I can change. As long as you have the confidence to hold these two positions concurrently, then I have the confidence to arrange for you."
"Then Yang Meixia opposes it, what should I do?" Zhao Desan asked.
Wu Min thought for a while and said, "I can't say anything about Yang Meixia's side. Did you forget what I told you the day before yesterday? If someone opposes it and it's not easy to solve in the district, then you need to come forward yourself and find Deputy Secretary Liu. As long as you can convince Deputy Secretary Liu, there will be no pressure in the district."
Depressed, Zhao Desan felt so depressed. What he was most afraid of now was going to find Deputy Secretary Liu. He didn't want to be a eunuch for that perverted woman. "Can I not find her?" Zhao Desan said with a frown.
Wu Min looked at Zhao Desan with some confusion and said, "Why do you seem so afraid of Deputy Secretary Liu?"
"No, I'm afraid... afraid she won't agree," Zhao Desan then said uneasily, "I offended her last time, how could she agree to help me?"
Wu Min couldn't help but smile and said, "You are still worried about this? Deputy Secretary Liu didn't take it to heart at all, so what are you afraid of? Besides, when I had dinner with Deputy Secretary Liu that night, Deputy Secretary Liu said she appreciated you very much. It can be seen that Deputy Secretary Liu also values you very much. Did you forget that Deputy Secretary Liu asked to see you by name after dinner that night and even asked you to go to her room?"
That night, it was because he entered Liu Xuemei's room that Zhao Desan almost had to be a eunuch under Liu Xuemei's lewd power. But fortunately, his male chauvinism made him righteously refuse Liu Xuemei's perverted request at the last moment for the sake of a man's dignity. After the unhappy parting last time, Zhao Desan had already cut off his own retreat. Now, how could he dare to go and ask Deputy Secretary Liu for help?
"Although Deputy Secretary Liu doesn't say it, I'm still afraid she has thoughts in her heart. Besides, I don't have much contact with Deputy Secretary Liu. If I go to her abruptly for this matter, will it seem too much?" Zhao Desan said with many concerns.
Wu Min encouraged him, "Listen to me, as long as you go to find Deputy Secretary Liu, she will definitely agree to help you. You don't understand women, can I not understand women?" Last time when Liu Xuemei came to the district to inspect the work, Wu Min realized that Liu Xuemei valued Zhao Desan very much. Although she didn't say it, a different look was revealed in her eyes when she looked at him. As a woman, Wu Min roughly understood some of Liu Xuemei's thoughts, and she also learned that Liu Xuemei's husband was lying in a sickbed, and she lacked reliance on men psychologically. For Zhao Desan's request, Liu Xuemei should not refuse.
Listening to Sister Wu's meaning, Zhao Desan seemed to feel that Sister Wu knew if there was any relationship between him and Deputy Secretary Liu? Zhao Desan felt a bit uneasy and asked Sister Wu tentatively, "Sister Wu, I don't quite understand what you mean? What about women? Do women have to help me?"
Looking at Zhao Desan's silly appearance, Wu Min couldn't help but smile gently, rolled her eyes at him angrily, and said, "That's not what I meant. I just said I am a woman, and Deputy Secretary Liu is also a woman. Compared to men, women are softer-hearted. And you are a man. Last time you also accompanied me to Deputy Secretary Liu's house specially. She has a very good impression of you. You go to find her, I think she will agree."
Realizing that Sister Wu didn't know if there was any relationship between him and Deputy Secretary Liu, Zhao Desan finally breathed a sigh of relief, and his expression relaxed accordingly, saying, "Then I'll try."
Wu Min reminded him, "Find time to visit Deputy Secretary Liu in person after work as soon as possible, and say more nice things. You are glib-tongued, so there will definitely be no problem."
Zhao Desan felt a bit embarrassed by what Wu Min said. He chuckled and replied, "I can only talk nonsense in front of you, Sister Wu. I wouldn't dare do that with anyone else."
"Forget it! I don't know you yet? Except for being serious at work, you are always not serious at other times." Wu Min smiled and rolled her eyes at him, then looked at her watch, saw that the time was almost up, and said, "Alright, you go back and do your work first. I have something to do."
Seeing that Sister Wu was going to be busy, Zhao Desan said goodbye, got up, and walked out of Sister Wu's office. While walking downstairs, he savored Sister Wu's idea and decided to visit Deputy Secretary Liu in person after work today. But as soon as he thought of that night's incident, Zhao Desan frowned.
Just as Zhao Desan walked downstairs, he suddenly met Yang Meixia going upstairs. It was really 'enemies on a narrow road', Zhao Desan muttered in his heart, and the dissatisfaction was written on his face. He looked at her lightly with a cold face! Meeting Zhao Desan suddenly in the District Committee, Yang Meixia was very happy and said with a smile, "Zhao Desan, why are you here?"
