Ha Teng was also very happy. Li Ming was promoted, and his status also rose accordingly. He was directly promoted from deputy secretary to the county magistrate to secretary to the county magistrate. Even though there was a slight difference, the power in his hands was far different.
Compared to the excited Li Ming, Ma Xiaoyao's performance was very dull, without any trace of happiness.
Cheng Wenyong was very depressed about the appointment notice issued by the city. He sincerely hoped that Ma Xiaoyao would become the county magistrate, but now it is Li Ming who has become the county magistrate. Cheng Wenyong does not have a good impression of Li Ming.
In Cheng Wenyong's mind, Li Ming was just a second-generation ancestor who relied on his father and didn't have much ability at all.
In order to celebrate his promotion to the county magistrate, Li Ming directly booked more than a dozen banquets at the hotel and invited all the cadres at the department level and above in the county to have dinner. Basically all the cadres at the department level and above came. They also wanted to take this opportunity to curry favor with this person.
However, some of the newly appointed county magistrates did not go. For example, Cheng Wenyong and Ma Xiaoyao did not attend the banquet.
…
In the evening, Ma Xiaoyao received a call from Gu Li.
"Xiaoyao, I heard that Li Ming became the county magistrate of Dongcheng County?" Gu Li asked.
"Yes." Ma Xiaoyao nodded.
"Xiaoyao... why don't you find another place to work?" Gu Li said in a worried tone: "You and Li Ming have always been at odds. Now that Li Ming has become the county magistrate, he will definitely try his best to plot against you."
"Sister Gu, don't worry, I don't take Li Ming seriously at all. To put it bluntly, Li Ming is just a villain, and he's still a bit shy if he wants to deal with me!" Ma Xiaoyao said with a smile.
"Xiaoyao..." Gu Li still wanted to persuade her, but she was really worried.
"Sister Gu, I have been fighting with Li Ming for so many years, and I have always had the upper hand. Li Ming has never gotten any benefits. Over the years, I have figured out a way to deal with Li Ming," Ma Xiaoyao said.
"Xiaoyao, don't insist on it. If it doesn't work, just apply for transfer. With Secretary Liu's appreciation for you, he will definitely agree to transfer you. When the time comes, as long as you leave Dongcheng County, Li Ming will have nothing to do with you.
..." Gu Li warned.
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "Well, I know, if I really can't stay in Dongcheng County anymore, I will naturally apply for transfer... Sister Gu, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I miss you very much...
When will you come back when you have time..."
"Xiaoyao, I'm sorry. I've been too busy with work recently. I can't get away for a while. So, give me a few more days. When I finish all the work at hand, I will go back to Lanhai City to find you.
I'll stay a few more days and keep you company!" Gu Li said sheepishly.
"Okay, Sister Gu, this is what you said, you can't go back on it! Otherwise I will be very sad!" Ma Xiaoyao said.
"When did I stop keeping my words?" Gu Li said with a smile: "Just rest assured, I will definitely go back in a few days... Okay, it's getting late, so let's stop talking here."
After that, Gu Li wanted to hang up the phone.
"Wait!" Ma Xiaoyao shouted.
"Huh? Is there anything else?" Gu Li asked doubtfully.
"Sister Gu, you don't just want to hang up the phone like this, do you?" Ma Xiaoyao pouted: "At least give me a kiss goodbye."
"You...you are really...ok, kiss me goodbye..." Gu Li kissed her on the other end of the phone.
Ma Xiaoyao had an expression of enjoyment on his face: "Not bad...not bad...it feels good...Sister Gu, how about you make a few more?"
"Just make fun of me! Okay, I won't tell you anymore." After saying that, Gu Li ended the call.
Ma Xiaoyao put down the phone, smiled slightly and said: "My wife is the most caring." Seeing that it was time to get off work, Ma Xiaoyao packed up, got up and left the office.
Just as he came out of the office building, Ma Xiaoyao's cell phone rang again.
Ma Xiaoyao took out his cell phone and looked at it, and found that it was Wang Aiqin calling. Ma Xiaoyao felt very complicated about Wang Aiqin. He didn't know how to describe it. He shook his head slightly and answered the call.
"Xiaoyao, where are you?" Wang Aiqin's cheerful voice came from the mobile phone.
"Oh, I just got off work..." Ma Xiaoyao replied.
"That's good, let's have dinner together tonight. I just came back from discussing business elsewhere." Wang Aiqin sent out an invitation: "Stay at Shuiyuexuan Hotel. I'll book a private room right away. When you come, call me.
Phone." After saying that, Wang Aiqin hung up the phone.
Ma Xiaoyao put away his cell phone and left the county government in a car.
…
Shuiyuexuan Hotel.
In a private room on the third floor.
Ma Xiaoyao pushed Wang Aiqin away with difficulty and took a deep breath: "Sister Wang... this... can we not do this when we meet in the future..." As soon as Ma Xiaoyao came in, Wang Aiqin rushed up and hugged Ma Xiaoyao.
There was such a fierce kiss that Ma Xiaoyao could hardly breathe.
"No!" Wang Aiqin shook her head decisively: "Xiaoyao, don't forget, I am your lover. It is normal for lovers to hug and kiss." After saying that, Wang Aiqin came up again and hugged Ma Xiaoyao.
They had a long Farah kiss, and Ma Xiaoyao almost died during the kiss.
After a full five minutes, Wang Aiqin let go of Ma Xiaoyao and licked her red lips: "Just kissing is not enough, we should do something more in-depth."
"Deeper?" Ma Xiaoyao was startled: "Then what... I'm hungry, let's eat quickly... Let's eat..." As he spoke, Ma Xiaoyao quickly walked over and sat at the dining table to start
Have a meal.
Wang Aiqin curled her lips: "What a coward..." Next, Wang Aiqin did not do anything drastic to Ma Xiaoyao. He just sat quietly and ate with Ma Xiaoyao: "By the way, Xiaoyao, I heard that Dongcheng County changed
The county magistrate?"
"Well, yes, Li Ming is the county magistrate now." Ma Xiaoyao said.
"Li Ming?" Wang Aiqin suddenly frowned: "Don't you have a grudge against this Li Ming... He has become the county magistrate now, which is very detrimental to you."
Ma Xiaoyao picked up the wine glass and took a sip: "It's very disadvantageous...but what can I do? This is all the city's decision. I am just a small deputy county magistrate and have no power to change the city's decision. In fact,
In the final analysis, it is because Li Ming has a father who is the mayor, otherwise it would be impossible for Li Ming to become the county magistrate with his little ability."
"It's like this these days... With a background and a backer, it's convenient to do things. No matter how depressed we are, we can't change this situation." Wang Aiqin shook her head helplessly.
"Hmph!" Ma Xiaoyao snorted coldly: "Although Li Ming has become the county magistrate, I am still not afraid of him. If he dares to cheat on me, I will definitely make him look good!"
Wang Aiqin pondered for a moment: "Xiaoyao, in the final analysis, Li Ming's status today depends entirely on his father. If he finds a way to bring down Li Ming's father, then Li Ming will never be able to be arrogant again. Then you will deal with it."
It has become much easier for him."
Ma Xiaoyao was stunned: "What you said makes sense...but...Li Ming's father is the mayor. It is too difficult to bring down a mayor."
"It is difficult, but as long as we pay attention and work hard, we will definitely have a chance to succeed." Wang Aiqin said confidently.
Ma Xiaoyao shook his head: "Sister Wang, I know you care about me, but this matter is of great importance and I can't let you get involved..."
"You clearly don't regard me as one of your own!" Wang Aiqin said angrily: "Xiaoyao, listen, I am your woman in this life, you are my only man, for you, I can do anything, including giving up myself
Let alone the mayor, even the provincial governor, I dare to cause trouble for him!"
"Sister Wang...you..." Ma Xiaoyao was very moved.
"Okay, Xiaoyao, this matter is settled. From today on, I will pay close attention to Father Li Ming. I will use all my connections to collect evidence about Father Li Ming. As long as I collect enough
Once I get the handle, I will have the confidence to bring down Li Ming's father!" Wang Aiqin said firmly.
Seeing Wang Aiqin's stubborn look, Ma Xiaoyao knew that no matter how hard he tried to persuade her, it would be useless. He smiled bitterly and said, "Sister Wang, I'm really not worth what you have to do."
"Whether it's worth it or not is up to me." Wang Aiqin snorted softly: "I don't care what you do to me, anyway, I am selfless to you. As I said, I am willing to do anything for you!"
"Sister Wang...you..." Ma Xiaoyao was about to speak, but was interrupted by Wang Aiqin.
"Hurry up and eat. The food is almost cold. Come, try this braised pork. It tastes very delicious." Wang Aiqin took a piece of braised pork to Ma Xiaoyao with chopsticks.
Ma Xiaoyao sighed softly. He owed Wang Aiqin too much in his life...
After the meal, the two sat together and chatted for a while. It wasn't until about nine o'clock in the evening that the two left the hotel together, and then separated.
…
the next day.
Li Ming held a county magistrate's office meeting, and Ma Xiaoyao and several other deputy county magistrates all attended the meeting.
At the meeting, Li Ming was overbearing and hit Ma Xiaoyao in his words. If Ma Xiaoyao hadn't been patient and good at it, he would have fallen out with him long ago.
Seeing Ma Xiaoyao speechless due to his sarcasm, Li Ming couldn't be happier.
Ma Xiaoyao had a sullen face and said secretly in his heart: Li Ming, let you be proud for a few days. When I catch you, I will punish you severely!
After the meeting, Li Ming stood up and left the meeting room with his head held high.
The villain has succeeded! Ma Xiaoyao despised Li Ming in his heart. Ma Xiaoyao knew very well the purpose of Li Ming's meeting today, which was to show off his power. Hey... Ma Xiaoyao sighed slightly. It's good to have a good father, no.
No matter how hard you work, you can become the county magistrate. It's really irritating.
Ma Xiaoyao was the last one to leave. As he climbed the stairs, he secretly thought about how to deal with Li Ming in the future. Now that Li Ming is the county magistrate, he is nominally Ma Xiaoyao's immediate boss, so Ma Xiaoyao cannot confront Li Ming head-on.
, otherwise it will attract criticism from others. In official circles, it is taboo for subordinates to contradict their superiors, so Ma Xiaoyao can only deal with Li Ming secretly.
