Ma Xiaoyao blinked: "What are you doing in the province?"
"The Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee came to talk to me." Gu Li did not give in. "The leader of the Organization Department said that the province has officially appointed me as the acting mayor of Lanhai City."
Ma Xiaoyao's eyes lit up: "Appointed so quickly? That's great!" Ma Xiaoyao was really happy, even happier than his own promotion: "Sister Gu, you are really going to become the first female mayor of Lanhai City.
!”
"Haha..." Gu Li was also very happy. After so many years, she finally got through it. From now on, she no longer has to look at other people's faces in Lanhai City.
"Sister Gu, when will you take office?" Ma Xiaoyao asked.
"We have to wait for a while. Mayor Lin has not officially retired yet, so I cannot take office yet," Gu Li said.
"When will Mayor Lin retire?" Ma Xiaoyao continued to ask.
"It's coming soon. It is estimated that Mayor Lin will officially retire by the end of the year at most. After the Spring Festival, I can officially take over as mayor." Gu Li said with a smile.
"The end of the year?" Ma Xiaoyao's face twitched: "There are still three months until the end of the year!"
Gu Li smiled: "Isn't it just three months? It passed in a flash. In fact, it is a good thing to have these few months of buffer. From now on, I will gradually hand over the work to Mayor Lin. During the handover,
During the process, I was able to learn from Mayor Lin's work experience. You must know that Mayor Lin has been the mayor for more than ten years. His governance experience is absolutely very rich. I will use the remaining three months to learn from Mayor Lin.
Mayor Lin will learn from his experience in governing, and when I take over as mayor, I will be even more comfortable at work."
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "Sister Gu is still thoughtful."
"Ma Xiaoyao, my success in taking over as mayor this time is entirely due to your help. I am grateful to you from the bottom of my heart." Gu Li said seriously.
Ma Xiaoyao waved his hand: "Sister Gu, please don't say that. Your ability to be the mayor depends on your ability and has nothing to do with me."
"Ma Xiaoyao, you don't need to compliment me. I know very well that without your help, I would not have been able to become the mayor so smoothly." Gu Li picked up the wine glass: "I toast you this glass of wine. Thank you for being so kind.
Help me!" After saying that, Gu Li raised her neck and poured the whole glass of white wine into her mouth.
Ma Xiaoyao was startled: "Sister Gu, please drink slowly..."
"Ahem, cough, cough..." Gu Li drank a glass of white wine in one breath, her throat suddenly felt hot, and she felt like there was a fire burning in her heart, making her extremely uncomfortable.
Seeing Gu Li's uncomfortable look, Ma Xiaoyao felt very distressed and hurriedly pushed a cup of tea to Gu Li: "Sister Gu, please drink some tea quickly to calm down the fire."
Gu Li picked up the tea cup and drank a few sips. She felt that her throat was no longer so burning, and the fire in her heart was slowly extinguished: "Oh, I didn't expect this white wine to be so spicy. It's so spicy that I can't breathe."
."
"Sister Gu, don't drink liquor too quickly or too hard, otherwise it will definitely hurt your body." Seeing that Gu Li was fine, Ma Xiaoyao breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Li patted her stuffy chest: "I will be more careful when drinking in the future, and I won't do anything wrong again."
"Come on, Sister Gu, hurry up and eat the vegetables." Ma Xiaoyao helped Gu Li pick up some vegetables.
Gu Li picked up the chopsticks and put the vegetables on the plate into her mouth.
"Sister Gu, how is Li Ming doing recently?" Ma Xiaoyao asked. Ma Xiaoyao had never let down his guard against Li Ming, his mortal enemy.
"It's not bad. With the support of the deputy secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, Li Ming is doing well in the Urban Construction Bureau. At least no one dares to trouble him." Gu Li knew a little about Li Ming's current situation.
Ma Xiaoyao frowned: "Having a good father is indeed a happy thing."
"What? Do you still hate Li Ming?" Gu Li asked.
Ma Xiaoyao shook his head slightly: "It's not a question of whether to hold a grudge or not, but Li Ming and I are enemies, and I must always be on guard against him."
"Be on guard at all times? It's not that serious, right? Li Ming has been transferred to the Urban Construction Bureau and has nothing to do with you at all?" Gu Li said with a smile.
"Sister Gu, Li Ming is a narrow-minded villain. I not only beat him before, but also forced him to leave the health bureau. Li Ming must hate me to death. As long as he seizes the opportunity, he will never let it go.
Pass me!" Ma Xiaoyao said in a deep voice.
"Ma Xiaoyao, you don't have to worry. As long as you work calmly and conscientiously, Li Ming will never have a chance to retaliate against you. What's more, don't you have my support? If Li Ming really dares to play dirty, I will make him look good!"
Gu Li hummed.
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "I will be cautious and work seriously in the future, and I will never let Li Ming seize the opportunity to retaliate against me."
"That's right, come on, let's eat the vegetables. If we don't eat, the vegetables will get cold." Gu Li said with a smile.
"Eat the food!" Ma Xiaoyao picked up the chopsticks and started eating and drinking.
After eating, Gu Li took a car back to the city hall, and Ma Xiaoyao also took a taxi back home.
After arriving home, Ma Xiaoyao sat on the sofa, turned on the TV and watched a movie.
Time passes by minute by second, and it will soon be dark.
Ma Xiaoyao looked at the clock on the wall: "It's already past six o'clock, why aren't dad and mom back yet?" Zhang Chunfang and Ma Dahai both got off work at five o'clock and could get home at half past five. Now it's six o'clock.
It was past midnight and his parents hadn't come back yet, so Ma Xiaoyao couldn't help but feel worried.
At this moment, Ma Xiaoyao's cell phone rang.
Ma Xiaoyao hurriedly answered the phone: "Hello?"
"Xiaoyao, I'm your mother. Your father and I have a party tonight. We have to go home late. You can go out for dinner by yourself." Zhang Chunfang's voice came from the mobile phone.
"I asked why you didn't come back so late. It turns out there is a party tonight." Ma Xiaoyao smiled: "Okay, you guys have fun, don't worry about me, I will take care of dinner myself."
"Then let's do it. If your dad and I get back late, just lock the door and go to bed. You don't have to wait for us." After a few words of warning, Zhang Chunfang ended the call.
Ma Xiaoyao put away his cell phone and muttered to himself: "What should I do for dinner? It's too troublesome to cook it by myself... I might as well go out to eat." Ma Xiaoyao stood up, changed his shoes and left home.
After leaving the community, Ma Xiaoyao walked to the opposite street, then found a ramen restaurant and ordered a bowl of fragrant ramen to eat.
This ramen is good, not only is it cheap, but it also tastes good.
Ma Xiaoyao ate two large bowls of ramen in one go, paid the bill, and left the ramen restaurant. As soon as he took a few steps, he was surrounded by a group of young people.
"What do you want to do?" Ma Xiaoyao glanced at the young people around him and asked in a deep voice.
A young man with dyed red hair looked Ma Xiaoyao up and down: "Is your name Ma Xiaoyao?"
Ma Xiaoyao was stunned: "Yes, I am Ma Xiaoyao, who are you? I don't seem to know you, right?"
"Boy, listen carefully, someone doesn't like you, let us deal with you!" After the red-haired young man finished speaking, he raised his foot and kicked Ma Xiaoyao.
The other young men were not idle either, rushing to attack Ma Xiaoyao.
Of course, Ma Xiaoyao was not willing to be beaten. He raised his fists and started to fight back. Unfortunately, it was difficult for him to fight back with two fists. Within a moment, Ma Xiaoyao's face and body were covered with wounds.
"Bang!"
A fist came from nowhere and hit Ma Xiaoyao hard on the bridge of his nose. Blood immediately flowed from Ma Xiaoyao's nostrils, his body tilted, and he fell directly to the ground.
The red-haired young man knelt down, reached out and grabbed Ma Xiaoyao's collar, and said coldly: "You brat, please listen to me. Be more honest in the future, and if you dare to show off again, I will destroy you!"
Ma Xiaoyao said nothing, but stared straight at the back of the red-haired young man, his eyes full of surprise.
"What are you looking at?" The red-haired young man turned his head in confusion.
"Silly!" The moment the red-haired young man turned his head, Ma Xiaoyao suddenly jumped up from the ground, threw the red-haired young man to the ground, then raised his fist and began to punch the red-haired young man in the face.
The red-haired young man came to his senses and immediately began to fight back.
"You bastard, you dare to hit me, I can't kill you!" Ma Xiaoyao was so angry that he held the red-haired young man's head with both hands and started to smash it on the ground. After just two hits, the red-haired young man began to lose consciousness.
stand up.
At this time, the red-haired young man's companions came to their senses and swarmed towards Ma Xiaoyao, trying to rescue the red-haired young man.
No matter how many dozen young people beat him, Ma Xiaoyao would not let go of the red-haired young man.
At this time, a dramatic scene appeared on the scene. More than a dozen young people kept hitting Ma Xiaoyao, while Ma Xiaoyao focused on beating the red-haired young man. Although Ma Xiaoyao suffered a lot of injuries, the fate of the red-haired young man was not good either.
Where to go.
Ma Xiaoyao also had group fights when he was in school, and he also has some experience in group fights. When a group of people besieges you, don't panic, don't be chaotic, stare at one person closely and fight, because others are worried about their companions,
They certainly won't dare to hit you hard, and at the same time, they will also be frightened by your ruthlessness. As long as you can persist until the end, you will scare away those who besiege you.
"Damn, this kid is like a piece of fishy oil that can't be beaten to death. Pull him away quickly, the boss will be beaten to death by him!" A fat young man shouted loudly.
The others woke up, rushed forward, grabbed Ma Xiaoyao's neck, shoulders, and arms, and pulled him back.
Ma Xiaoyao did not dare to show weakness. He grabbed the red-haired young man's hair with both hands. No matter how hard the person behind him pulled, he would not let go. The red-haired young man who was already unconscious was suddenly hit by bursts of severe pain from his scalp.
The stimulation woke him up, and immediately he screamed miserably after waking up.
"Let me go!" Several young men came over and grabbed Ma Xiaoyao's hand.
Ma Xiaoyao refused to let go. Not only did he not let go, he also pulled the red-haired young man's hair hard. Soon, a dense layer of blood beads appeared on the red-haired young man's scalp.
