The phone just rang once and the old secretary answered the phone.
"Little guy, why are you thinking of calling me, an old man? Is the situation in Yinhai City okay?" the old secretary asked proactively.
When the old secretary asked this question, Song Lihai's heart suddenly dropped.
"Old Secretary, everything in Yinhai is getting better, and it's all thanks to the old secretary's help to the mayor."
"It's just, old secretary, I didn't let the mayor know about the call I made today. It was made by me personally. If I made a mistake, please forgive me, old secretary, and also ask old secretary to keep it a secret for me, okay?" Song Lihai looked at a group of people. Hao Qingmei, with an expectant face, spoke cautiously.
When the old secretary heard Song Lihai's words, he burst out laughing on the other end of the phone.
"You kid, what's going on? You've made it so mysterious, and you don't want Mingshan to know. Just tell me what's going on." After laughing, the old secretary responded lightly.
Song Lihai had no choice but to tell the old secretary everything about Hao Qingmei's situation and thoughts. Once he finished speaking, Song Lihai said directly: "Old secretary, Mayor Hao is by my side."
When the old secretary heard this, he thought that this boy was really brave. He really dared to cross Qin Mingshan and call him directly for such a thing. For the old secretary, this was a strange move and extraordinary courage.
"Tell the female mayor to listen to the phone." The old secretary said directly.
Song Lihai breathed a long sigh of relief. Regardless of success or failure, he finally made a deal.
Song Lihai handed the phone directly to Hao Qingmei and said, "Mayor Hao, the old secretary asked you to listen to the call."
Hao Qingmei was surprised and happy, and hurriedly took the mobile phone handed over by Song Lihai.
"Hello, old leader, hello, old leader." Hao Qingmei's voice suddenly became as soft as water. It was so pleasant to hear, and her series of greetings opened Song Lihai's eyes.
A big leader is a big leader, and the greetings are all different, and women really have advantages in being an official. This voice is so loud that one's bones are going weak.
Song Lihai was fascinated by the sound. He was thinking that the old secretary must also be fascinated by the sound. If so, would he have missed the mark?
Sure enough, the old secretary did not expect that a woman in her forties had such a nice voice, and she shouted like an old leader, as if he was her old leader.
Hao Qingmei didn't wait for the old secretary to respond, and said softly: "Old leader, I forced Xiao Song to do this. Don't blame him."
"I didn't go to Mayor Mingshan because I thought you had just helped him and it would be inappropriate for him to speak in front of you again because of my matter."
"If I speak to Mayor Mingshan rashly, I'm worried that it will embarrass him."
"Xiao Song, he is young. Even if he hits a snag in front of the old leader, you won't blame him. Young people, if they do anything wrong, they will have reasons to be forgiven."
"Mayor Mingshan and I are different. At our age, we are not allowed to make a wrong step or make an important decision wrong."
"I'm one year younger than Mayor Mingshan. If I don't seize the opportunity in front of me and ask for progress, I will have to wait in confusion to be relegated to the second line, and there will be no possibility of promotion."
"Old leader, I had a short marriage and we divorced soon."
"Now I am single and don't want to get married again. If I don't work hard for my career, I will be a complete failure as a woman."
"Old leader, I'm not afraid of making you laugh. This is my basic situation. Please give me some advice."
Hao Qingmei can become the mayor. In addition to her beauty, her emotional intelligence is so high. Her IQ must also be very high, and she is actually single. Song Lihai couldn't help but set his sights on the female mayor again.
At this time, Hao Qingmei's face was excited, with a girlish blush on her face, which made Song Lihai confused for a while. This woman did not look like a forty-year-old woman, she was just a young woman who still had charm.
The old secretary laughed again. This woman really knows how to talk. Although he is retired, he has always paid close attention to people and events in the officialdom.
"Come on, I will personally guide you."
"The little guy has my phone number. Ask him to give it to you. Just tell me before you come." The old secretary said directly without any ambiguity.
Hao Qingmei was so happy that her heart almost jumped out of her chest, and she said eagerly: "Old leader, can I come over and treat you to dinner tonight?"
"Okay, come here." After the old secretary said that, he hung up the phone.
Hao Qingmei put the phone to her ear and listened again and again. When she found that the old secretary had hung up the phone, she blushed and returned the phone to Song Lihai.
Seeing Hao Qingmei like this, Song Lihai couldn't hold back and actually swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
And he swallowed quite loudly. Hao Qingmei heard it clearly. He looked at Song Lihai playfully and asked jokingly: "What's wrong? It's not too early? Are you hungry?"
Song Lihai was already extremely embarrassed, but when the female mayor asked him such a question, his face turned red and he stuttered for a long time without giving any explanation.
"Okay, okay, the old leader promised me to treat him to dinner tonight. How about you go and ask for leave from Mayor Mingshan and be my driver tonight?" Hao Qingmei looked at Song Lihai excitedly and said, I don't blame him for the offense.
"Me? Will I go to the provincial capital with you?" Song Lihai's eyes widened in surprise. If Qin Mingshan found out, he would have to skin him.
"The old secretary will not let Mayor Mingshan know about this matter. As long as you don't tell me, and I don't tell you, Mayor Mingshan won't know."
"Besides, this is your matchmaking. Apart from trusting you, not even Xiao Ai is allowed to know about this." Hao Qingmei looked at Song Lihai with trust again, as if he and her had known each other for many years. Like an old friend.
Song Lihai thought for a while and decided that this was the only way to go. Let's do good things to the end.
"Okay, I'll find a reason to ask the mayor for a day off. There shouldn't be anything particularly busy tonight."
"The mayor has been busy rebuilding the Yinhai Lake Bridge these days. After all preparations in the city are completed, we will go to Kyoto to find Academician Yi Bron. He is an engineer and expert in bridges." Song Lihai briefly told Hao Qingmei what Qin Mingshan would do next.
"Okay, I understand. I will fully support Mayor Mingshan. As long as we work together, I believe Yinhai City will get better and better."
"Xiao Song, no matter what, thank you. You can go and tell me as soon as possible after Mayor Mingshan has asked for leave. I will wait for your news." After Hao Qingmei finished speaking, she signaled Song Lihai to leave.
Song Lihai nodded, but he did not leave immediately. Instead, he sent the old secretary's phone number to Hao Qingmei's mobile phone, then turned around and strode out of the female mayor's office.
