“Of course, chance favors only the prepared mind.”
Jingyan Ye put forward a bold request after seeing that the atmosphere was quite good, “Commander, everyone was so excited before you came, and they ask me to do them a favor.”
The Commander was interested in his words and said: “Oh? What kind of favor? Tell me, I'll see if I can help.”
Jingyan said with embarrassment, “They all want to take a picture with you.”
“Okay, this is simple.” As soon as he said the words, everyone in the workshop became quite excited and they all cheered and came to the Commander, while the senior officials of the provincial Party committee and municipal Party committee all backed off. Then some of the hundreds of young people sat on the ground, and others stood next to the Commander, who were all very happy.
Seriously, taking a picture with the Commander was worth bragging for a lifetime.
After taking the photo, everyone politely bent down to thank the Commander.
Then they saw the Commander off, who said to Jingyan as he walked, “The comrade in the city once said that Yehuang Group is not only the city's big tax-payer, but also the entire province's economic bellwether. So I thought the manager of the company was at least fifty years old, but I didn't expect you to be a handsome young man.”
Jingyan modestly said, “You overpraise me, I still have a lot to learn.”
“It's good for the young people to have such an attitude.”
“Thank you.”
It was getting late and the evening sunlight filled the sky.
The Commander turned around a second before getting into the car and said, “There is a simple reception dinner in the evening, why don't you come as well.”
Jingyan was surprised and hurried to said, “Okay.”
The surrounding provincial and municipal senior officials were also quite shocked, for they had never seen the Commander invite a young man before, which showed how much the Commander liked Jingyan.
The reception was held in a high-profile hotel in the city. When Yiyao Duan escorted the first lady to walk into the banquet hall, except for the security guards, only the provincial senior officials were waiting here.
After exchanging pleasantries with other people, the first lady sat on the sofa in the lounge area, and the secretary came up to inform her, “Madam, the Commander will be here in ten minutes.”
Then she nodded, “Okay, I see.”
Yiyao stood behind her and observed the environment outside the window, thinking that this banquet hall was also specially chosen so that there weren't any high-rise buildings within five hundred meters so that there wouldn't be a high point for shoot.
Then the senior official respectfully served good tea and then stood by the side, waiting for orders.
Ten minutes later, tanglesome footsteps were heard from afar, and the Supreme Chief Executive arrived. Sure enough, after the door was pushed open, the Commander walked in, surrounded by a large crowd of people.
The first lady walked over gracefully and smiled and nodded when those who followed the Commander bowed to greet her.
“When did you all return?” The Commander asked with concern and walked towards the seat of the guest of honor, guided by the official.
She smiled lightly and answered: “I just returned as well.”
Yiyao keenly observed the situation around and suddenly, the man that appeared in the doorway made her raise her eyebrow.
Yiyao didn't want to say more, it was all in the past anyway.
Jingyan did not eat much at all. When he saw that she was so close with another man, he felt extremely jealous, and how could he still have the mood to eat?
But it was still worth it now that he could meet her here by chance. It was worth more than having dinner with the ultimate boss.
After the meal, Yiyao and Eagle escorted the two distinguished guests out. When she walked pass Jingyan, she did not even look at him. At this point, Jingyan finally knew what her mission was this time.
At the same time, he also realized a problem: The inspection tour will end tomorrow, that is to say, Yiyao will leave the city tomorrow afternoon, and he completely does not know when he can see her again.
No, he must go and see her tonight, even if she hits him and scolds him, he has to go to see her.
Then he walked to a senior official who was close to him, and he asked when there was no one around: “Director Zhao, which hotel will the Commander live in tonight?”
Director Zhao said at once, “Guobin Hotel, the host hotel of municipal government.”
“Oh.”
“What's wrong?”
Jingyan casually found a reason, “Nothing, I just want to know which hotel has such a privilege, and our company would like to learn from it.”
Director Zhao patted his shoulder, saying: “Thank you for your hard work today, hurry up and go home.”
“Well, you too.”
