Just as Song Kai was feeling a bit angry, he suddenly had a bright idea. Whether it's a full section chief or a deputy, even if he claims to be a full section chief, could this student kid in front of him actually know?
"I didn't expect, Chuan, that you're quite knowledgeable about the internal workings. You're right, being a full section chief at 31 truly makes soone outstanding, and as for a deputy, it's quite regrettable—not only is there no hope for promotion, but it's practically trash!" Song Kai had a smile on his face, implying that he himself was a legitimate full section chief, truly exceptional!
Li Chuan smiled and said, "I wonder which departnt Mr. Song works in? I happen to have friends in the system; maybe they could be of help to you."
"Oh? Really?" Song Kai showed a aningful smile, while manipulating his phone, "Your friend, what level are they in the system?"
"Well… they seem to be the head?" Li Chuan referred to Liu Zhenmin, the party secretary of Jiangzhou City. Though Liu Zhenmin is the party secretary, at his level, he'd have connections even in the provincial capital.
"Head? Are you referring to Secretary Gao of our city? Are you saying Secretary Gao is your friend?" At this point, Song Kai's eyes were full of disdain and ridicule.
Li Chuan's mind stirred: "Secretary Gao, is that Gao Jinyu?"
Song Kai: "Yes indeed, our city's newly appointed party secretary is Gao Jinyu. Don't tell you know her."
Li Chuan couldn't help but be surprised, he hadn't expected it to actually be Gao Jinyu!
He could never forget that unforgettable night with Gao Jinyu back then!
However, Li Chuan never expected this woman to be the party secretary here, no wonder Zhao Qingyao is so secretive!
Seeing Song Kai's mocking gaze, Li Chuan nodded: "You're right, I know her."
Beside him, Chen Lu, who was looking down at the nu, shivered at Li Chuan's words. She reached out with her hand under the table and gave Li Chuan's thigh a light pinch, signaling him to keep his boasting within limits.
Knowing Gao the secretary?
Forget Song Kai, even she didn't believe it!
You must know, for people like Secretary Gao, ordinary folks struggle to even et them once!
"Li Chuan, is it? Actually, I really want to feign a shock for you, but what you've said... seems to insult my intelligence!" Song Kai sneered coldly.
By this ti, he'd received ssages indicating Li Chuan is a first-year student at Jiangzhou dical College, dispatched to Taohua Village to manage a dicinal herb garden. To put it nicely, it's a school-local governnt cooperative project, but in reality, it's just sending so students over to appease the local governnt.
And Li Chuan hasn't been in Taohua Village long.
So, Song Kai was even more certain that this Li Chuan was really a temporary boyfriend Chen Lu found for a shield!
Otherwise, why would this guy boast so shalessly?
Upon confirming this, Song Kai's heart was actually quite excited and thrilled!
Because this ant he still had a chance with Chen Lu!
Speaking of which, Song Kai is also an avid fan of the big star Bai Lu, dreaming of having a girlfriend like Bai Lu!
Yet upon first seeing Chen Lu, he thought he'd t Bai Lu herself!
Resemblance!
It was just too similar!
Plus, her figure was even better, possessing an innocence even purer than Bai Lu's!
Though Song Kai had dated many girlfriends, none were as exceptional as Chen Lu at this mont!
He always dread of pushing this campus belle beneath him and conquering her hard!
Thus, right now he directly ignored Li Chuan and turned to Chen Lu: "Chen Lu, this western restaurant's specialty steak, the at quality is exceptional, made from imported beef, slaughtered fresh daily, air freighted, of course, the price is reasonable—a steak costs around 900."
While speaking, Song Kai glanced at Li Chuan, as if saying, a 900 steak equals your monthly college expense!
Want to boast in front of ? Are you worthy?
Li Chuan naturally understood Song Kai's implication, and was sowhat uneasy, because his relationship with Gao Jinyu was unspeakable!
Honestly, he could only bla himself for boasting.
Song Kai seed proud and gracious, saying heartily, "Chen Lu, order whatever you like, the more the better. Today, I'm covering the bill!"
"My boyfriend eats quite a lot; you won't mind, will you?" Chen Lu smiled slightly, she also understood Song Kai's implication, after all, people have so perceptiveness, it's okay to let him see through Li Chuan as a shield.
Song Kai: "Order as you wish."
Chen Lu nodded towards the nearby waiter, "Start with ten Tomahawk steaks, dium rare, then ten servings of foie gras, one serving of French truffles, two Louis XIII pizzas, and a bottle of '82 Lafite."
Then Chen Lu turned to Song Kai: "Mr. Song, do order sothing for yourself; I'm not familiar with your taste."
Song Kai heard this, feeling his blood rising!
Not to ntion anything else, just ten Tomahawk steaks cost 10,000!
And a bottle of Lafite, that'll be 70,000!
Chen Lu was simply treating him like a pig to be slaughtered!
"Is this so kind of test for ?"
"Forget it, no risk, no reward! Such an exceptional woman can't be missed!"
"Once she's mine, I'll have her dress like Bai Lu, just for !"
After deliberating, Song Kai imdiately picked up the nu, outwardly calm, but inwardly tortured!
This al, costing over 100,000, leaving even the richest with empty pockets!
Without even touching her hand, spending that much, had he not picked this restaurant, he'd suspect a setup!
Before long, Chen Lu's ordered steaks started arriving.
Li Chuan didn't bother with cutlery, grabbing to eat directly by hand. Song Kai saw this, thoroughly contemptuous, but said aloud, "Li Chuan, have you not eaten steak before? It's normal; not even elite white-collar workers can afford such high-end dining! Steak should be eaten with knife and fork, watch ..."
Li Chuan looked unimpressed: "It's just a steak; where's this sense of superiority coming from?"
Song Kai's face darkened, thinking he'd been the fool and yet couldn't feel superior? But facing Chen Lu, he couldn't lose composure, simply smiling: "Li Chuan, this isn't superiority."
"Then what is it?" Li Chuan didn't plan to let him off.
"You..." Song Kai hadn't anticipated, this guy just wouldn't take a hint!
Li Chuan picked up the knife and fork, chuckling: "Whether with cutlery or not, the essence of eating is enjoying the al and filling your stomach."
"I'm a simple person; I won't laugh at soone with a roll in their hand."
"Nor envy a person eating sea cucumber and shark's fin, trying to climb up to them."
"A person's noble character is seen in their heart's purity, not through boasting."
Song Kai's face turned blue then red, never expecting to be ridiculed by a freshman!
Having said that, Song Kai couldn't hold his anger, slamming the table: "You little punk, what the hell makes you think you can preach to ?"
"Do you believe I can't make you drop out?"
At this mont, a surprised voice rang out from nearby: "Mr. Li, didn't expect to et you here, truly, how small is the world!"
