Chapter 5349

"Why are you here?" Running into Zhao De here, Zheng Chuyi, in addition to her surprise, revealed a happy smile on her face, her big eyes staring at him in astonishment as she asked.

"I came to the hospital to visit a former leader, and took the opportunity to withdraw some money." Zhao De answered with a smile, his eyes scanning the beautiful reporter he hadn't seen in a long time. She was wearing a navy blue wool coat, a pair of black high-heeled long boots on her feet, making her already tall figure appear even more upright and graceful. A white silk scarf was tied around her fair and slender neck, and her jet-black, shiny hair hung down naturally, still as charming and beautiful as ever. Meeting her suddenly after such a long time made Zhao De's heart stir.

Watching Zhao De's eyes scanning her up and down, the beautiful reporter Zheng Chuyi smiled somewhat embarrassedly, shifted her gaze to the side, dodging his burning stare, and said with a smile: "Long time no see, are you doing well?"

"Not bad, it has been quite a long time." Zhao De answered with a silly smile. "How about you, have you been well during this time?"

"I'm fine." Zheng Chuyi nodded with a smile, looking down at her toes unnaturally, and secretly glanced at him.

Facing this girl who had once made his heart flutter, Zhao De's "mouth skills" suddenly disappeared, and he just laughed "hehe," not knowing what to say for a moment.

The atmosphere between the two seemed a bit awkward. Seeing Zhao De just laughing foolishly without speaking, Zheng Chuyi raised her head and said with a smile: "Since you came to the city today, let me treat you to lunch?"

"Oh, no need, I... I have a meal appointment at noon, let's do it another day." Zhao De hurriedly declined Zheng Chuyi's invitation with a smile. He was helpless! If he hadn't promised Mayor Zhang to have lunch together, he would have agreed without hesitation.

And Zhao De's refusal was seen by Zheng Chuyi as an intentional avoidance of her. She knew that Zhao De was dating the daughter of the Provincial Party Secretary, so she smiled somewhat awkwardly and said: "Officials have many social engagements. Since you have an engagement at noon, I won't force you."

"Another day, I'll treat you another day." Zhao De immediately said with a smile.

"That's fine." Zheng Chuyi nodded with a smile.

"Then I'll go first." Zhao De checked the time; it was almost time, and he couldn't keep Mayor Zhang waiting. So he said goodbye to Zheng Chuyi and brushed past her. Just as he walked two steps, his heart suddenly jolted. Thinking of something, he quickly stopped and turned back to Zheng Chuyi: "By the way, Chuyi, there's something I just happened to want to ask for your help with."

Zheng Chuyi turned back and looked at him with some confusion, smiling: "What is it? Tell me."

Zhao De thought about it. This matter couldn't be explained in a short while, so he smiled and said: "Forget it, let's wait until I call you next time, and we'll talk slowly. I'm going first, goodbye!" He waved at Zheng Chuyi with a smile and quickly got into the car, driving toward the restaurant set by Mayor Zhang. Recalling the bits and pieces of his time with Zheng Chuyi in the car, Zhao De could only sigh helplessly. Heaven plays tricks on people! This girl was the only one besides Zhao Xue whom he felt was completely satisfactory in every aspect, but because of the barbaric little beauty Jin Lulu, he had to end the relationship between them. Sigh!

After arriving at Xiangjulou and sitting down, Mayor Zhang hadn't arrived yet. Zhao De lit a cigarette in boredom and smoked, looking out the floor-to-ceiling glass window. After about the time it takes to smoke a cigarette, he suddenly saw Mayor Zhang park an Audi car on the side of the road. Mayor Zhang was driving the car himself, and he also discovered that a woman was sitting in the passenger seat.

After the car stopped, Zhao De saw through the tinted glass window that Mayor Zhang wickedly touched the bulge on the woman's chest before opening the door and getting out. Immediately after, the woman sitting in the passenger seat also got out.

Zhao De then discovered that this woman was actually Sister Wang from the Municipal Government Office. He had discovered their affair in the small conference room on the first floor of the municipal government last time. He didn't expect this Sister Wang to be another secret lover of Mayor Zhang! However, Sister Wang didn't walk over with Mayor Zhang, but sat in the driver's seat while vigilantly looking around, and then the Audi car was driven away by her.

Damn it! It seems this old bastard is also "old but not lacking in heart"! Zhao De couldn't help but be secretly astonished in his heart. As far as he knew, there were already three women who had a relationship with Mayor Zhang. Besides this Sister Wang, there was Sister Wu, and the beautiful secretary Yao Beina. Thinking that this old thing had snatched Yao Beina and Sister Wu away from him, and even humiliated him to his face, saying Yao Beina's performance was good and he was very satisfied! Fuck his grandmother's bear!

Thinking that his woman had been occupied by this old thing, Zhao De felt angry. You occupied two of my women, and I will definitely pay you back! Although I have only slept with your wife, don't you still have a beautiful daughter! Hmph!

Zhao De thought secretly in his heart. Mayor Zhang walked into the restaurant with a "ba-zi" gait. Zhao De then came back to his senses, quickly stood up to greet Mayor Zhang, and hurried up with a face full of smiles.

"Comrade Comrade Xiao Zhao came quite early." Zhang Dewang laughed and sat on the chair Zhao De pulled out.

"Since Mayor Zhang invited me to dinner, how could I not come early." Zhao De smiled and flattered Zhang Dewang, poured him a cup of tea, and offered it. Facing his enemy, he still had to be subservient, which made Zhao De feel very aggrieved. Sooner or later, I will pull you down from the position of mayor! He made a ruthless vow in his heart.

Zhang Dewang picked up the teacup, took a sip, picked up the menu, looked at it, pushed it to Zhao De, and said politely: "Comrade Comrade Xiao Zhao, take a look, what do you want to eat."

"Mayor Zhang, you order. I haven't been here before, and I don't know what dishes suit your taste." Zhao De was not the kind of person who didn't know how to behave, so he naturally pushed the menu back in front of Zhang Dewang.

Zhang Dewang smiled with satisfaction, then picked up the menu and looked at it carefully from top to bottom, and said with a smile: "Then let's just eat something casually today." As he spoke, he called the waiter over, and while pointing at the dish names on the menu, he asked the waiter to record them.

Zhang Dewang ordered a total of five dishes, only one of which was a meat dish, and the rest were all vegetable dishes. After putting down the menu, he was still in that calm and composed manner, laughing and saying: "Usually fish and meat are too greasy, let's eat more vegetable dishes today. The dishes in this shop are quite good."

Zhao De laughed and flattered: "Yes, now everyone pays attention to healthy eating."

"Yes, as people get older, eating too much meat easily leads to 'three highs'. Comrade Comrade Xiao Zhao, you are still young, it is good to pay attention to this aspect early." Zhang Dewang said with a smile, "What do you want to drink?"

"Secretary Zhang, you decide." Zhao De was not stupid, so he naturally handed the choice to Zhang Dewang.

"This shop has home-brewed sorghum wine, so let's have a bottle. Just drink a little." Zhang Dewang decided to drink sorghum wine.

The serving speed of this shop was quite fast. In a short while, the simple dishes were served on the table, and a bottle of home-brewed sorghum wine was also sent up. Zhao De asked for two glass cups, and hurriedly opened the bottle cap, first filled a cup for Mayor Zhang and offered it with both hands, and then poured a cup for himself.

"Eat, let's eat and drink." Zhang Dewang greeted Zhao De to eat, picked up his chopsticks, picked up a piece of wild vegetable, put it into his mouth, and chewed it carefully.

Zhao De then moved his chopsticks and tasted these vegetable dishes. It must be said that the taste was indeed good. For him, who often had to socialize and was tired of mountain and sea delicacies and big fish and meat, it was indeed very appetizing, so he couldn't help but eat a few more bites. Seeing Mayor Zhang put down his chopsticks, he quickly put down his chopsticks, raised his cup with both hands, and said with a smile: "Mayor Zhang, I toast you."

"Come." Zhang Dewang laughed, raised his wine glass, touched it lightly with Zhao De's wine glass, and took a small sip of wine. Zhao De was different. When drinking with a leader, how could there be a reason not to finish it? He drank the cup of sorghum wine in one gulp.

Seeing Zhao De's heroic appearance, Zhang Dewang laughed and said: "Comrade Comrade Xiao Zhao, you don't have to be so formal. This is not a formal meal, no need to be so polite."

Zhao De nodded with a smile. Seeing that this old thing was just greeting him to eat, and occasionally asking about his work, and saying some irrelevant things, Zhao De felt very puzzled. He really didn't know what the purpose of this old thing suddenly inviting him to dinner today was?
