Chapter 4886: Zheng Chuyi Helps

Finding a two-person table by the window in the hot pot restaurant, the two sat opposite each other. Zhao Desan handed the initiative of ordering the soup base and dishes entirely to Zheng Chuyi. Watching Zheng Chuyi carefully examining the hot pot dish list and reporting a dish to the waiter from time to time, with her head slightly lowered, that calm and elegant demeanor appeared very graceful, especially wearing a professional outfit, which made her look particularly beautiful.

Zheng Chuyi ordered a table full of green vegetables, enoki mushrooms, Chinese cabbage, and other vegetarian dishes. After the waiter brought the spicy soup base, lit the fire, and left, Zhao Desan looked at this table of green vegetables and couldn't help but laugh, "Why did you order a table of grass?"

"Grass?" Zheng Chuyi was stunned at first upon hearing Zhao Desan's metaphor, then couldn't help but be amused, beaming with joy, "Eating grass is healthy. Eating grass is good for the body. Do you want to eat meat?"

"I don't want to either, then let's eat grass together." Zhao Desan laughed. Anyway, he had no interest in eating hot pot, and it didn't matter what he ate, as long as this beautiful reporter was happy.

After a while, the soup base began to boil. Zheng Chuyi poured in plate after plate of 'grass' and cooked it for a while before they started eating. Zhao Desan watched Zheng Chuyi eating with great relish, and he couldn't help but feel a bit greedy himself, but as soon as he saw the layer of chili oil in the pot, he felt a bit daunted in his heart.

Zheng Chuyi looked up and saw that Zhao Desan hadn't picked up his chopsticks yet, so she asked curiously, "Why aren't you eating?"

"I'm not hungry." Zhao Desan chuckled.

Seeing that Zhao Desan refused to eat, Zheng Chuyi put down her chopsticks, wiped the chili oil from the corners of her mouth with a tissue, and pouted, "If you don't eat, I won't eat either. How boring it is for me to eat alone." For a girl, eating alone with a man she has a good impression of is very important for the mood. Zheng Chuyi was naturally a bit unhappy in her heart.

Seeing Zheng Chuyi pouting and looking a bit angry, Zhao Desan then winked at her with a cheeky grin, made a face, and said, "I'll eat, I'll eat." As he spoke, he picked up his chopsticks, his face changed, and he looked at the red layer of chili oil in the soup base with a sad face, his scalp tingling. He secretly lifted his eyelids and glanced at Zheng Chuyi. Seeing that she had picked up her chopsticks, he had no choice but to bite the bullet, grit his teeth, pick up a piece of green vegetable that had turned red, and eat it cautiously.

*My god! Isn't this going to cost me my life! * Before Zhao Desan had finished eating one piece of green vegetable, he already felt his whole body starting to itch. He secretly complained in his heart, but still endured it and ate a few more bites of vegetables, then made an excuse to go to the bathroom and ran to the restroom. Zhao Desan had a very serious allergic reaction to chili. At this time, his whole body felt like it was covered with countless caterpillars, and there wasn't a single place that didn't itch, especially the sensitive area between his legs where wild grass grew, which was itching like crazy. He couldn't wait to reach his hand along his waistband and scratch the itch vigorously. While scratching, he couldn't help but let out 'Ouch' sounds.

Just at this moment, a middle-aged man brought a child in to use the restroom. Seeing Zhao Desan standing with his back to them, with his hand inserted into his pants moving up and down, the child innocently asked the middle-aged man, "Dad, what is that uncle doing?"

The man took one look at Zhao Desan's actions, immediately thought the wrong thing, and hurriedly pulled the child away, saying, "Let's go!" fleeing the restroom as if escaping.

Zhao Desan then came to his senses. Looking at his action of inserting his hand into his waistband, *Damn! * Not to mention others thinking the wrong thing, even he himself felt this action was too sleazy. How could it not make people have wild thoughts? He hurriedly pulled his hand out of his pants, looked at himself in the mirror, and fortunately, there were no allergic symptoms on his face. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief and walked out of the restroom with the mood of going to the battlefield.

After sitting back down, Zhao Desan refused to eat the hot pot no matter what. Watching Zheng Chuyi eating with great relish, he could only silently swallow his saliva.

"I'm so full!" After Zheng Chuyi finished eating the vegetables cooked in the soup base, she put down her chopsticks and, while saying this, continued to cook vegetables inside.

"Chuyi, I want to ask you for a favor." Zhao Desan found an opportunity to bring up the serious matter.

Hearing Zhao Desan's words, Zheng Chuyi glanced at him, cooked vegetables in the pot, and said, "I knew you didn't have anything good when you came to me. If there's nothing, how could you still think of me!"

Zheng Chuyi had a good impression of him; Zhao Desan was very clear about this, so he also understood Zheng Chuyi's thoughts at this time. He said with a cheeky grin, "You are a busy person, if there's nothing, how would I dare to look for you!"

Zheng Chuyi rolled her eyes and said, "Go to hell, you are the busy person. You are a district head now, you must have a lot of social engagements all day long. How can I be as busy as you? You don't call people for ten days or half a month, and as soon as you look for someone, you want them to help you. Really!"

Zhao Desan could see that Zheng Chuyi wasn't really angry, which made him feel very gratified. Among the women he knew, it seemed there really weren't any who were particularly petty and unreasonable. He smiled and said, "Being able to ask you for help, doesn't that just show that I have you in my heart?"

Being said so by Zhao Desan, Zheng Chuyi's face turned red instantly. She glared at him shyly and said, "I can't beat you with words. Tell me, what is it?"

Hearing Zheng Chuyi's meaning, it was considered that she had already agreed. Zhao Desan was overjoyed in his heart, immediately told the whole story of the incident, looked at her with pleading eyes, made a pitiful appearance, and said, "Chuyi, only you can save me now."

"Is it that exaggerated?" Seeing Zhao Desan's exaggerated expression, Zheng Chuyi's beautiful eyebrows wrinkled slightly.

"You don't know, I just took office. If the district's image is damaged, that will be my responsibility. I won't hide it from you, when I became this district head, some leaders above didn't agree, always thinking of ways to fix me. Now that there is such a good opportunity, if I don't hurry up and eliminate the image brought by this matter, then I will definitely be fixed miserably. Chuyi, only you can save my little life now, please have pity on me." As Zhao Desan spoke, he looked sad and miserable, as if he was about to cry, and his expression appeared extremely exaggerated.

"Pfft." Zheng Chuyi couldn't help but laugh at Zhao Desan's rich and exaggerated expression. Looking at his pitiful appearance, she really couldn't do anything about him. She smiled and said, "Alright, alright, I promise you, you don't have to be so exaggerated!"

"Chuyi, you are so good, you really are my savior." Zhao Desan immediately said exaggeratedly, with a look of endless gratitude.

"Alright, alright, don't be so polite, okay? You are so polite that I feel a bit unaccustomed." Zheng Chuyi said with a smile. In her impression, Zhao Desan could only be the kind of person with a very thick skin. Suddenly being so polite made her feel a bit distant.

Zhao Desan winked at her, chuckled, and hurriedly served her vegetables into her bowl with great diligence, smiling and saying, "Eat vegetables, eat vegetables."

Zheng Chuyi smiled. The two ate hot pot while chatting, and the meal lasted for more than an hour. After eating, Zhao Desan drove to personally send Zheng Chuyi back to where she lived. Watching her tall and slender back walk into the building gracefully, he smiled ecstatically and then drove away.

In the middle of the night, Zheng Chuyi sent Zhao Desan a message saying that the manuscript had been written and it should be published tomorrow, asking him to pay attention.

Early the next morning, Zhao Desan sat in his office waiting for the day's newspaper to be delivered. At about nine o'clock, the newspaper was delivered to his office. He found the Hexi Daily from a pile of various newspapers and saw this news on the front page. The title was in large red font, appearing particularly eye-catching on the entire page: "Nightclub Opening Self-Directed and Self-Acted Government Sending Banners." Today, a post titled "Nightclub Opening District Government and Other Units Actually Sent Banners" with pictures and text appeared on the Hexi Provincial News Network Forum, causing heated discussion among netizens. Recently, a nightclub located in the CBD of Renmin Street, Chanba District, Xijing City, Hexi Province, opened. On the day of the opening, a netizen posted on the Hexi News Network Forum and attached pictures. In the pictures, the banner for the nightclub's opening almost covered the entire building. The most eye-catching one was the banner marked with congratulations from the Chanba District Government of Hexi Province and relevant units. As soon as the post was issued, it immediately attracted the attention of many netizens. Some netizens believed that such a prominent display was truly "Government congratulating on the left, Public Security supporting on the right," showing that this nightclub "has a big background" and has a "backer." Some netizens also believed that government departments and relevant local units were "clinging to the rich." As a government unit, sending banners to merchants in this way obviously has the suspicion of currying favor with merchants. Some people also believe that this practice is not worth making a fuss about. Citizen Mr. Li said that the entertainment industry is also an industry that needs government guidance and support. It is nothing to criticize for the entertainment industry to send banners to congratulate on the opening.

So, did the government and relevant units send banners to congratulate? Is the fact really what netizens are discussing? Today, the reporter visited and investigated the heads of relevant units, and all unit heads unanimously expressed that it was impossible. Chanba District Head Zhao Desan introduced that they did not participate in the congratulations; that was the merchant's unauthorized behavior. On the day the banner was discovered, they had the merchant remove it. District Head Zhao introduced that the district government neither made the banner nor authorized others to make it. This was the entertainment venue's unauthorized behavior, and the district government had already had the other party remove it. The reporter saw at the scene that the congratulatory banners from the district government and relevant units had been removed. The reporter learned from a staff member of this nightclub who refused to disclose his name that this was indeed the nightclub's unauthorized behavior... ===== CHAPTER 4887 =====
