Because of Yu Hong's attitude change, Li Yan felt very happy to be able to see Xiaodi again after nearly two months apart. Recalling that Yu Hong had always been more open-minded in the past, it was only Chen Mingying who placed Xiaodi under house arrest. He wondered if Yu Hong was

She has a special regard for him and is ready to entrust her daughter to him. He is the prospective father-in-law!

As soon as this idea came to mind, I received a call from Li Jie’s father, Li Chengfeng. Li Chengfeng knew about his relationship with Li Jie, and when he accepted a cigarette from him, he said that he was the best dad as a betrothal gift! From then on,

In a sense, he is another quasi-father-in-law!

When Li Yan was sweating a little, he heard Li Chengfeng's enthusiastic address of "good son-in-law". This was when he was in the city, and he was beaten up by Li Yan regardless of the matter. After he came back,

Li Yan didn't meet him often, but he had seen him help Li Jie persuade him about the reform of Jierui, but I couldn't imagine why he would take the initiative to call.

"Uncle Li, what are you busy with? You seem to be in a good mood. Of course Li Yan will not follow his "virtuous son-in-law, call him father-in-law." He can't even correct him, lest he paint a darker picture.

"Me? I'm not busy! I'm in a good mood. Xian-sou, your reform suggestions, although they haven't brought about earth-shaking changes, have already given Jierui a new look. It's only been a few months. I believe it will be on track next year."

"I'm so happy! Xiaojie's way of looking at people is just like mine." Li Chengfeng started praising Li Yan and then started praising himself.

"I didn't do anything. I just gave some suggestions on paper. It mainly relied on Xiaojie's efforts to implement them. By the way, I'm driving. I'll chat with you slowly next time. If you have any questions, just tell me." Li

Yan Dandan asked straightforwardly. Li Chengfeng was different from Yu Hong. He was a straightforward man. He didn't know how to speak in official style, and he didn't have much authority, so there was no need to talk nonsense.

"Oh! Something happened. It's almost the Chinese New Year! You guys" Well, your company also has a holiday, right?

"It's free. I'll have a holiday in a few days next week." Seeing the way he was hesitant to speak, Xiao Li Yan thought he had taken on some difficult job and wanted his help. "What plans does Jierui have for me to participate in?"

? About when?.

"That's not true. It's just that you shouldn't live with your parents normally. Do you want to go back for the Chinese New Year?" Li Chengfeng was still a little hesitant.

"Go back, I will go back to my hometown to celebrate the New Year this year." When Li Yan heard this, he had already guessed something. Bu Rande complained secretly and felt a little ashamed.

"That's great! Haha, as you know, Xiaojie and I are the only two people in our family. Do you want us to come to your house to celebrate the New Year?"

"ha?!"

Li Yan sweated profusely. He just guessed that Li Chengfeng might ask him to take Li Jie to meet his parents, and then make a decision as soon as possible. That would be in line with his attitude as if he was afraid that his daughter would not be able to get married. But he did not expect that he was actually planning to personally supervise the army.

Got it!

"Uncle," in fact, I haven't been back for more than ten years, and I don't know what's going on at home. You may be too hasty and not very good. Although I'm sorry, I still have to reject it directly.

After listening to this, Li Chengfeng felt a little unhappy, "Are you saying that your home is not big enough and you are afraid that we will have no place to live if we go there?"

"Absolutely. I'm not at home. I've only lived with my parents these past few years. Their income is average and the house is of course smaller. Li Yan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the housing problem is a problem all over China. This is good.

excuse.

It's a pity that although Li Chengfeng is an honest man, he has also been running a security company for more than ten years, so he is not so easy to fool. After Li Yan finished speaking, he asked again: "Then you go back." Two rooms are enough

have it?"

"That's true, but we can't let you live in a hotel, right? That's boring. It's better to buy a big house in the future.

In the future? Li Chengfeng immediately interrupted: "No need in the future! Since your two houses are easy to manage, I won't join in the fun. You can take Xiaojie back to see your parents and celebrate the New Year at your house."

Li Yan was a little surprised. This top-notch dad was not deliberately pretending to be a big boss and was just playing hard to get and making a harder request first. The purpose was the current request, right?

"Don't tell me you two have never lived in the same room!"

Li Yan was a little sweaty. When he was in the city that time, he had sex with his daughter, and he knew it clearly. He couldn't deny it now.

"Aren't you trying to deny it after all? Xiaojie is obsessed with you." Li Chengfeng's tone was a bit serious.

Li Yan could only smile bitterly and said: "I will discuss this issue with Xiaojie, okay? Don't worry about it now. Keep an eye on the security guards to avoid anything happening during the Chinese New Year.

"You can't let Xiaojie down. Or I'll break your legs!" Li Chengfeng threatened. After finishing speaking, he remembered that he couldn't defeat Li Yan, so he quickly added: "Don't forget that I have a

Big gang of brothers!”

"Of course, of course, definitely not."

After finally getting Li Chengfeng to hang up the phone, Li Yan let out a long breath. He still had to discuss this matter with Li Jie, and he couldn't keep dragging it out like this. It would be terrible if Li Chengfeng broke the news."

After dealing with one prospective father-in-law, Li Yan had to deal with another prospective father-in-law. Only then did he realize that having more girlfriends would indeed lead to an increase in corresponding troubles.

However, he was still willing to face it. When he came to the seaside villa on the Gold Coast that he had passed by several times but had not entered, Li Yan had already thought of a countermeasure that would make Chen Mingying look bad.

The security guard opened the door and let him in. After parking the car, Li Yan saw Zhou Yunfei with a stern face. He despised Li Yan very much. One was his employer's daughter, and the other was him.

The boss's daughter made him even more angry. If he had the chance, he would really want to punish him! But now that Li Yan is the honorary consultant of Jierui, it is not easy for him to find excuses.

"Lao Zhou, I haven't seen Li Yan for a long time and said hello to him with a smile.

Zhou Yunfei snorted coldly: "Who are you visiting?"

Of course Li Yan understood that he said that on purpose. If Yu Hong hadn't been at home and hadn't given instructions, he might not have been allowed in. He lowered his voice and laughed, "I said, "You have been working at the mayor's house for a long time.

Are you tired of bureaucracy and want to break away from Jierui?"

"What are you talking about!" Zhou Yunfei was furious. Although Chen Mingying had been treated very well in all aspects of the Yu family since he hired them, and it was more honorable to go out, he had no intention of leaving Jierui. Even now, since the reform, their income

I wanted to give part of the commission to the company, but I just complained for a while, and even tried to comfort the team members below. "Boy! I tell you, you don't need to sow discord. Brother Li is kind to me, and I will never leave."

Jierui! You don’t have to expect me to leave Jierui,

"Now! Since not, of course that's good. I am also a consultant to Jierui now, and my nominal position is a little higher than yours, right? But you have a hostile attitude toward me, which hurts unity!" Li Yanxi

The German said, lighting up a cigarette and passing by.

Zhou Yunfei was angry. In the past, Li Yan was just a friend of Yu Xiaodi and Li Jie. Of course he could be hostile, but now he is really a colleague in the company. He stretched out his hand and snatched the cigarette away, and then whispered: "I

I disdain your character because I want to be hostile to you. This is based on my personal power. What does this have to do with work? Do you want to file a complaint with Li Jie and ask her to transfer me? Consultant!"

"Continue to be hostile! In fact, I will think that you are jealous of my charm and will not be angry. Just "Hey!"

After Li Yan said this, he left.

Zhou Yunfei was indignant. After he entered for a long time, he realized the unfinished subtext and couldn't help but become even angrier!

Yes, Li Yan really doubted that Xiaodi's mother's attitude changed drastically because of what Zhou Yunfei said. Yu Hong said that he would not use his power to investigate Li Yan, and Chen Mingying probably wouldn't either. Otherwise, they should have been able to investigate long ago.

Now that Li Yan's marriage record has been released, there is no need to wait until last month to change his attitude. Therefore, it is very likely that Zhou Yunfei, who knew from Li Chengfeng that Li Jie and Li Yan had an unusual relationship, leaked this information intentionally or unintentionally.

Only then would Chen Mingying be furious and tear them apart.

But Li Yan didn't have any evidence, and he wasn't very familiar with Zhou Yunfei. It was just a guess, so he could only make insinuations and see his reaction, without directly breaking his face.

Entering inside, Li Yan told the servant that he was here to see Yu Hong, and someone took him to the study room upstairs. As he went there, his eyes and attention couldn't help but want to go in the direction of Yu Xiaodi's bedroom.

Go, but at this time, it is better to go to see Yu Hong first and understand his ideas. Otherwise, if you go to see Xiaodi, the situation will be worse later.

He has been to the Yu family many times, including when Yu Hong and Chen Mingying were not at home. When Yu Hong came to the study, he suddenly remembered the time he came here with Yu Xiaodi, and the result was unexpected.

Chen Mingying shouldn't be in there today, right?

After opening the door to report, Li Yan went in by himself. In the study, he saw Yu Hong reading documents behind the desk.

"Mayor Yu." "Xiao Li is here, sit down!" Yu Hong looked up, smiled and motioned for him to sit down. Then he pointed to the water dispenser in the corner: "Pour yourself some water, I'll finish reading this!"

"You're welcome, no need to greet me." Li Yan sat down opposite him. It seemed that he was only at home, and Chen Mingying seemed not to be there.

For Yu Hong, even if he is the mayor, he does not have much pressure, and he feels that it is easier for men to talk to each other. Chen Mingying's pressure comes from the fact that she is Xiaodi's mother.

After a while, Yu Hong finished reading the documents in his hand. Then he put them aside and looked at Li Yan with a smile: "Li Yan, this time we exposed the rare earth mines on Xiaoyao Island, and then implicated them in smuggling rare earths, and on Xiaoyao Island.

If you deliberately slow down your work, you should take credit!"

"To be honest, I didn't do anything. The ones who really put in the effort" were Lao Kang and his miners! Some of them paid the price with their lives, and some lived a savage life for a period of time. I believe the government should have resettled them, right?

"Li Yan doesn't care about any credit, but miners like Lao Kang and others at the bottom are likely to encounter retaliation from the mine owners and developers, so they have to mention it to Yu Hong.

"You're right, they are the heroes behind the scenes. Without their fight to the death, today's results would not be possible." Yu Hong nodded, his face became a little heavier: "I know what you are worried about, I will let Ji Bi

Pay attention. The government will not let them suffer, and has already settled them."

Li Yanxin said, how reliable are the government's guarantees? However, the person who said this now is not just any cadre, but Mayor Yu Hong. I believe in the power of his words and if they are implemented, they will still have a certain effect.

"Don't talk about it. Let's talk about you! The government has a bonus of 50,000 yuan and an honorary medal for outstanding citizens. What do you think?" Yu Hong laughed again.

Li Yan was a little sweaty. Medal of Honor for Outstanding Citizens? This reminded him of the "Three Good Students" certificate he received when he was a child. There should be places for the Medal of Honor for Outstanding Citizens every year. It should be reserved for more outstanding citizens. I don't need it.

As for the bonus, if the government is really serious about it, I hope it will be divided among the six of them, Lao Kang. Even if I show a little respect to them, it will be some compensation for the lost income."

Yu Hong looked at him with a smile but not a smile: "I don't want the medal, and I don't want the bonus." Good comrade! However, are you sure this is not done deliberately to leave a good impression on me? Then I really cancel it?

"

Although he said this with a smile, it was relatively direct and a bit unpleasant. Li Yan said in a neither arrogant nor humble tone: "Perhaps everyone's experience is different! For you officials or civil servants,

All medals and honors are very important. They are helpful for promotions and professional title evaluations. But to us ordinary people, hey, what do they mean?

Fifty thousand yuan is a lot for your reward, right? But compared with the interests involved this time, it's just a drop in the bucket, right? If I really care about the reward, I don't need to go out of my way to complain to you.

If you use it to threaten a business owner, I believe it would be easy to extort half a million or one million yuan, right? Besides, 50,000 yuan is really not much, and our company’s year-end rewards are more than enough!"

Yu Hong looked at him, as if he wanted to see clearly what kind of person he was. Listening to what he meant, it was clear that he was not a Lei Feng-style person who did not care about rewards, but that he did not care about this government reward at all!

"Since you are so direct, let me be more direct! I am actually just testing you. I have no intention of giving you any medal of honor for outstanding citizens, nor will I give you a bonus of 50,000 yuan."

Li Yan frowned secretly, testing? Are you just playing tricks on me? But Yu Hong's words below changed his impression greatly.

"Do you know why? It's not that you don't deserve the reward. It's just that" you know, your exposure has touched a huge interest class. Now that I am coming forward, their target is only on me.

For you, those miners, I have adopted confidentiality protection. If I reward you publicly, you will immediately be hated by many people. In this city, you will soon have no place to stand, and you may even encounter unexpected events!" Yu Hong said seriously

explain.
