Chapter 669
After waiting for a while, Seeing Tingting didn't reply to the message. Zhao Desan thought this girl might still be angry about last night, so he dialed the phone directly. Unexpectedly, the call was rejected directly.
Heh! This girl has quite a temper. He thought to himself and smiled. Just as he thought this, Seeing Tingting sent him a message: "Brother Desan, I'm in a professional theory class, it's not convenient to answer the phone."
So she was in class. It was good she wasn't angry. Zhao Desan smiled with relief. As long as he didn't make Seeing Tingting angry, there would be opportunities in the future to let her arrange for Yingying and the others to come out and play. Daytime would be best, so he wouldn't be afraid of Sister Su's suspicion.
Because he couldn't see Yingying last night, Zhao Desan felt regretful all night. Thinking of last night's regret today, he was even more unwilling. He pondered whether he should find a way to let Seeing Tingting arrange for Yingying and the others to come out and play today. As long as Sister Su wasn't at home during the day, he could do whatever he wanted. It would be best to find a way to get Yingying's contact information from Seeing Tingting, contact her alone first to test her, and see if this young girl Yingying was as flirtatious as her own sister Zhang Hui, as he had guessed.
No, I must find a good way to get Yingying's contact information from Seeing Tingting, Zhao Desan thought, and went to sit on the sofa somewhat anxiously, lit a cigarette, and thought carefully. Although Zhao Desan felt his brain was flexible and he usually had many bad ideas, he really didn't think it was a simple matter to get Yingying's mobile phone number from Seeing Tingting. If he asked her for Yingying's contact information directly, the purpose would be too clear, and even a fool could see he had bad intentions. If he made up some excuse, he and Yingying didn't have any intersection, so he really couldn't think of an excuse for a while. Getting the phone number of a girl he liked was really harder than ascending to heaven! Zhao Desan thought with annoyance.
After thinking about it, the only excuse was to let Seeing Tingting call them out to play. Firstly, he didn't know if they had time, and secondly, if they came out to play, Seeing Tingting definitely wouldn't just call Yingying. With so many people, it would be hard to make a move. He racked his brains for a long time but couldn't think of a flawless idea. And Seeing Tingting, because she had boys chasing her, had basically become a couple with that boy. Although she still had Brother Desan, who had touched her young girl's heart, in her heart, after all, she was at the age of first love. Furthermore, knowing that even if she maintained that relationship that violated ethics with Zhao Desan, there would be no results, she didn't stick to him like before. A day passed, and Zhao Desan couldn't think of any good ideas to get his wish.
Just like this, he passed a few days in boredom, paying public grain to Sister Su on time every night and then sleeping. Tomorrow is Monday, and he will officially go to work at the Construction Committee. After eating and making love with Sister Su on the bed, after paying the public grain, he lay panting beside her and talked about going to work tomorrow. Su Qing asked him, "Are you mentally prepared for your first day at the Construction Committee tomorrow?"
"To tell you the truth, I'm quite nervous." Zhao Desan said. Although he had worked in Yuyang City's public institutions for several years before, this time the work unit was a provincial-level unit, and he hadn't worked formally for several months. He had been passing time like a sheep every day, and he was really afraid he wouldn't be able to adapt to that nine-to-five work for a while. What he was even more worried about was Director Lan of the Planning Division, fearing that the snake-hearted woman would still remember the interview day and deliberately find trouble for him.
Su Qing laughed indifferently, "What's there to be nervous about? It's not like you haven't worked in government units before. You were a small leader in the Yuyang Coal Bureau anyway. These units are all similar, it's just like that. No need to be nervous."
"Actually... actually, I'm just afraid of Director Lan. During the interview that day, she seemed to think I got in through the back door and looked at me very unpleasantly." Zhao Desan said his true thoughts.
"Don't worry about this. Old Zheng and Old Ma will take care of you. They are the top leaders of the Construction Committee anyway. What can a Division Director do to you?" Su Qing didn't take Zhao Desan's worry as a matter.
But then again, Zhao Desan felt Sister Su was right. After all, he was entrusted to Zheng Baldy and Ma Ma Debang by Sister Su. If he had any unhappiness in the Construction Committee, the two of them would definitely not stand by and watch. Thinking this way, Zhao Desan wasn't so worried anymore. With Su Qing, the Minister of the Organization Department of the Provincial Committee, supporting him, was he still afraid of a small Lan Mei? Even if they played schemes, it wasn't certain who could outplay whom! Zhao Desan considered himself not losing to anyone in playing means!
"That's true, after all, there's still you, Sister Su." Zhao Desan laughed and relied on Su Qing.
But Su Qing didn't think so. Instead, she became serious and said to him very earnestly, "Desan, you must have a good mindset. Don't always think that Sister will help you out with everything. People in the Construction Committee already know you're my cousin, so I can't interfere with everything. This will only make people look down on you, you know? When you go to work, you must set your position right from the beginning, lower your posture, and work down-to-earth. Whatever the leader asks you to do, you do it. Only by producing results can you prove yourself. Don't let people always look at you with colored glasses. Do you know what a person needs besides their own ability and relying on special interpersonal relationships to achieve something in such a unit?"
Su Qing was worthy of being a leader. This earnest teaching was very reasonable. Presumably, Director Lan didn't deliberately make things difficult for him at the beginning of the interview. Although those two questions were difficult to answer, they were indeed related to the work of the Planning Division. It was just that he hadn't prepared enough before the interview. It was only when Director Zheng brought out Sister Su's name at the end that Director Lan's eyes changed. Originally, she was a bit disdainful, and in the end, she completely looked at him with that kind of look that looked down on him. Zhao Desan was full of confidence in his ability and also had Sister Su's special interpersonal relationship. If there were still problems with his future with these two conditions, then what conditions were missing? He really didn't understand and looked at her in confusion.
"High virtue and prestige." Su Qing said, "Maybe you think this word is not appropriate, but Sister has been in officialdom for so long, and this word is the only one that can summarize it. Think about it, working in such a unit, there is a lot of intrigue. Many people are competing for the same position above. First of all, what you have to do is not to offend people, and then it is ability. You must convince people with virtue, let others not wear small shoes for you, and be willing to support you. Only then can you possibly go up. Do you think Sister is right?"
Sister Su had been in officialdom for so long, and the bridges she had crossed were more than the roads he had walked. A woman who could reach the position of Minister of the Organization Department of the Provincial Committee, these experiences must be beneficial to him without any harm. Zhao Desan listened to her opinions with an open mind, nodded, and said, "Yeah, Sister Su, you're right. I will do as you say."
"Yeah, especially when you first go to work at the Construction Committee, you must set your position right, lower your posture, and do your own things diligently in everything. Don't always think about being eager to stand out. If you have a good relationship with colleagues and leaders, people will definitely consider you if there is an opportunity to go up." Su Qing said, "As for Director Lan of the Planning Division you mentioned, don't always be afraid that she will make things difficult for you. As long as the things she arranges are handled properly by you, what excuse can she find to make things difficult for you? No matter which leader, as long as the people below can complete the things arranged well, he will definitely not make things difficult for you. Who doesn't want a right-hand man who can solve problems for them?"
Sister Su's words were all reasonable. Thinking about it, it was like that. Just like when he first went to the Coal Bureau to be Wang Pangzi's secretary, he was good at observing words and expressions, knew what the leader was thinking, and always completed his work brilliantly. Wang Pangzi also valued him very much at the beginning. People are the same. Even if Director Lan looks down on him again, as long as I complete the things she orders brilliantly, she won't look down on me, Zhao Desan thought.
On the eve of work, Su Qing told him many taboos in officialdom, which benefited Zhao Desan a lot. Chatting until midnight, Su Qing said you have to get up early to go to work tomorrow, let him go to sleep early. This night, he only paid public grain once, and the two went to sleep.
The next morning, when Su Qing woke up, Zhao Desan also woke up. She told Zhao Desan to dress more formally today, changed her clothes, deliberately went out half an hour early, and drove him to the gate of the Construction Committee, smiling and saying, "Desan, today is your first day at the Construction Committee. I wish you a smooth work."
"Thank you, Sister Su." Zhao Desan smiled, opened the car door, and said, "Then I'm going down."
"Yeah." Su Qing nodded, watched him get out of the car and walk into the Construction Committee, and then drove to the Provincial Committee.
Because he came too early, after entering the Construction Committee, the front of the office building was empty without a car, and the building was quiet without any sound. The entire Construction Committee courtyard was extremely quiet. Zhao Desan walked to the building and wandered for a moment, hardened his heart, carried his briefcase, and walked into the building with a high-spirited face. He looked at the indicator board on the first floor and went straight to the second floor, walking to the Planning Division office, which was the second to last room at the end of the corridor.
When he arrived at the office door, the door was open. He thought that colleagues from the Planning Division had already come to work. He organized his mood, walked in with a smile, and found that it was just a middle-aged woman cleaning the floor, bending over and mopping the floor. Hearing someone walk in, she turned her head enthusiastically. Seeing a strange face, the enthusiasm on her face decreased a lot, and she asked him, "Who are you?"
Zhao Desan kept Sister Su's teachings in mind. Because today was his first day at work, even facing a sweeper, his attitude was extremely humble. He smiled politely and said, "I'm here to work. I just had an interview last week. Today is my first day at work. Big sister, you're working so early."
His humble and polite attitude added some impression points to himself in the eyes of this sweeping woman. A kind smile appeared on her face, and she said, "Oh, why come so early? Work starts at eight o'clock."
