Chapter 4890

At about eleven o'clock the next morning, the poverty alleviation personnel from the City Committee Organization Department drove to the Chanba District Government. Zhao Desan led the District Organization Minister and the Poverty Alleviation Office Director to warmly receive Zhao Changtian and his party in the conference room. What Zhao Desan didn't expect at all was that Yang Meixia, who worked in the City Committee Propaganda Department, had also come.

When the two saw each other, a look of extreme surprise appeared in their eyes. Of course, the most surprised one was Zhao Desan. Seeing Yang Meixia, his two eyes widened like a cow's, as if he had seen something incredible.

After warmly greeting Zhao Changtian and others and exchanging pleasantries, Zhao Desan still bit the bullet and came to Yang Meixia, stretched out a big hand, and said with a forced smile, "Deputy Minister Yang, hello!"

Yang Meixia's eyes looked very determined, a faint smile raised at the corner of her mouth, she stretched out her hand to shake hands with him symbolically, and said, "District Head Zhao, hello."

"I didn't expect that this poverty alleviation inspection would be so grand, even the Propaganda Department has come." Zhao Desan said to everyone with a smile.

Zhao Changtian introduced with a smile, "This poverty alleviation, it's Deputy Minister Yang who wanted to come down and see it personally. Didn't she work in our Chanba District before? She wanted to come down and see if there are any changes in the work of our Chanba District, and by the way, do a good job in the propaganda work of our poverty alleviation this time."

Looking at Zhao Changtian's human-like appearance, Zhao Desan found it difficult to connect him with the old guy who was 'he-xiu' with two Russian girls in front of him at the Dihao Nightclub that night. This made him quite admire these old oil sticks in the officialdom, who could always switch roles freely and were good at disguising themselves. Zhao Desan felt that the gap between him and these old guys was not in work ability, but in these aspects.

Zhao Desan knew that Yang Meixia had been busy preparing for her wedding during this period. He was really surprised that she suddenly followed Zhao Changtian down today, and at the same time, he could vaguely guess her thoughts. Seeing this wealthy young lady who had once given up her work at the Provincial Committee General Union for him and ran to this poor and remote place in Chanba District, Zhao Desan felt as if a five-flavor bottle had been overturned in his heart, and there was an indescribable taste lingering in his heart.

For Yang Meixia, who had worked with him in the district and had emotional intersection, and was about to get married and become someone else's wife, Zhao Desan felt inexplicably lost, but soon he was relieved. Having been with Yang Meixia in the district for such a long time, Zhao Desan knew that Yang Meixia actually liked him very much in her heart, but wasn't he the same?

Working with Yang Meixia in Chanba District was a relatively smooth period in his work. This girl, who was a bit impatient on the surface but kind-hearted inside, also made Zhao Desan quite moved. But he knew very well that except for Yang Tianyu, everyone in the Yang family strongly opposed their relationship. Moreover, there was the mountain of Provincial Committee Secretary's daughter Jin Lulu between them, which made Zhao Desan understand that he and Yang Meixia couldn't end up together. Therefore, he painfully proposed to break off with Yang Meixia.

Yang Meixia was wearing a light gray suit skirt today, a pair of flesh-colored silk stockings wrapped her two legs long and straight, and she was wearing a pair of black high heels. It was clear that she had been carefully dressed, and she even had light makeup on her face.

Zhao Desan really wanted to find an opportunity to say a few words to Yang Meixia, crack some jokes, and let the two completely let go. Even if they couldn't be together, there was no need to treat each other as enemies. But seeing Yang Meixia's somewhat cold expression, and with Zhao Changtian and others present, he was embarrassed to say anything to Yang Meixia alone. However, seeing Yang Meixia's somewhat cold and low mood, Zhao Desan still felt a bit strange. Her appearance was completely unlike a girl about to enter the marriage hall, which made him feel a bit confused.

Near noon, Zhao Desan arranged lunch at the District Committee Reception Center, entertained Zhao Changtian and others for a simple meal, and then opened rooms for them to rest at the District Committee Reception Center for an hour. At about one o'clock in the afternoon, Zhao Desan accompanied Zhao Changtian and others to drive to a relatively remote and poor village in the suburbs of Chanba District. Led by the Township Party Committee Secretary, they first comforted several poor households, and then held a symposium with the village cadres at the village committee, kindly asked about the local production and living conditions, and even expressed on the spot that they would spend 50,000 yuan to build a convenient bridge for the village, so that villagers would no longer have to wade across the river in winter to handle affairs in the town. The village branch secretary and the village head expressed their gratitude for the assistance of the higher-level departments on the spot.

Everything was proceeding smoothly according to the general assistance process. However, due to the personal arrival of City Committee Organization Minister Zhao Changtian and District Government District Head Zhao Desan, the reception specifications were raised a lot. Reporters from Hexi Provincial TV Station and Xijing City TV Station filmed the whole process. If there were no accidents, it would appear as an important news on the news programs of provincial and city TV stations.

The poverty alleviation work inspection ended. When they returned to the urban area of Chanba District from the suburbs, it was already past six o'clock in the afternoon. Zhao Desan entertained Zhao Changtian and others at the District Government Reception Center. However, this time it was not the simple meal at noon, but two tables full of mountain delicacies and wild game, and each table had several bottles of Wuliangye. This was the standard configuration for the district to receive higher-level leaders. Although Zhao Desan was extremely unwilling to waste, there was no way, he couldn't break this tradition.

Because today's poverty alleviation reception work was considered successfully completed, the atmosphere at this dinner was very lively. As the highest leader among the reception personnel in the district, Zhao Desan held a wine glass and enthusiastically clinked glasses with Zhao Changtian and others one by one. When it was his turn to drink with Yang Meixia, Zhao Desan carried the wine glass to her. The two looked at each other involuntarily. Zhao Desan knew Yang Meixia's drinking capacity. After finishing a glass of wine, he filled the wine glass again, smiled, and held it out, saying, "Deputy Minister Yang, today I must thank you for the contribution you made to our district before, and also thank you for still thinking about the development of the district, and for working hard to come down to do poverty alleviation work. I will toast you another glass!"

Yang Meixia looked at Zhao Desan's smiling appearance, smiled faintly, and said, "District Head Zhao has been promoted now, and he is getting better and better at talking."

Yang Meixia's words gave Zhao Desan a not-so-small blow. He was stunned for a moment, then chuckled, changed the subject, and joked, "I heard that Deputy Minister Yang is getting married soon. Taking this opportunity today, I congratulate you in advance."

Originally, Zhao Desan was just joking. Who knew that Yang Meixia's face suddenly changed, she picked up the wine glass without saying a word, tilted her neck, and drank a glass of wine in one gulp.

Zhao Desan's wine glass was still held in mid-air, which made him feel very embarrassed instantly. His face was burning, so he hurriedly drank it in one gulp and said with a smile, "Deputy Minister Yang really has a good drinking capacity!"

After drinking with Yang Meixia, Zhao Desan hurriedly went to toast others in a dejected manner. Everyone was happy, and the atmosphere at the dinner table was very relaxed, except for Zhao Desan and Yang Meixia, who were each harboring their own ghosts, especially Zhao Desan, who wanted to find Yang Meixia to talk alone, but couldn't find any opportunity.

Two hours later, the dinner ended. Zhao Changtian and others were all red-faced and swaying, and were greeted by Zhao Desan to send them to the car. After watching the poverty alleviation work group's cars merge into the traffic and disappear from sight, Zhao Desan prepared to leave. The night in mid-April was still a bit cold. Zhao Desan was only wearing a shirt on his upper body. Suddenly, a night wind blew, making him shiver. He didn't drink less that night either. The group of people brought by Zhao Changtian could drink one by one. After accompanying them, Zhao Desan couldn't drink two catties of Wuliangye alone. At this time, his head was also a bit dizzy. He definitely couldn't drive, so he simply turned and walked into the District Committee Reception Center, intending to make do in the room at the reception center at night.

The room where Zhao Changtian and others rested at noon was still reserved. Zhao Desan came to the door of the room dizzy with the room card, opened the room door, simply washed his face in the bathroom, lay half-lying on the bed, lit a cigarette and smoked it comfortably, and picked up the remote control to turn on the TV and watch.

"Dong dong dong..." Suddenly, a knock on the door came from outside. Zhao Desan thought it was the staff of the reception center, so he got out of bed and opened the door. The moment the door opened, Zhao Desan saw the person standing outside the door and was taken aback. He didn't expect the person standing at the door to be... it was Yang Meixia. She was standing at the door gracefully, with a smile on her face, carrying a small handbag, and also carrying a bag in her hand.
