482: The Party Secretary is like a warm older brother.
Wang Zhongyu and Comrade Li Chunchang walked out of the Office together and greeted Xu Minghao separately. After Xu Minghao turned and left, Comrade Li Chunchang said respectfully, "Hello, Secretary."
Wang Zhongyu then spoke up: "Secretary, Minister Li would like to report his work to you."
Lin Zifeng nodded and said, "Come in, Minister Li." He turned and walked into the Office.
Comrade Li Chunchang and Wang Zhongyu followed Lin Zifeng one after the other into the Office.
Wang Zhongyu poured tea for Comrade Li Chunchang and then withdrew from the Office.
Lin Zifeng sat behind the desk before saying to Comrade Li Chunchang, "Minister Li, please sit down and speak! We haven't seen each other for a long time."
"Secretary, you have to comprehensively coordinate and take charge of all aspects of work in Yushu City; it would be no exaggeration to say you are busy with ten thousand things a day. If the Cadre of our Yushu City often came to report work to you, how would you be able to carry out other work!" Comrade Li Chunchang said thoughtfully.
"Minister Li, when you arrive at your new post in the future, besides continuing to work hard, you must also change some of your work style. You must carry out work boldly and be brave to innovate in your work. The progress of every task comes from many bold attempts. Even if you occasionally make some mistakes, as long as it is for the sake of work, it is permissible. You cannot be timid in your work just because you are afraid of making mistakes." Lin Zifeng said with implied meaning.
Hearing Lin Zifeng's words, Comrade Li Chunchang quickly said, "Please rest assured, Secretary. I will definitely execute your instructions without discount and implement your instructions in my future work. I will not fail your support and promotion, and I will not fail the earnest expectations of you and other leaders of the Municipal Party Committee."
Comrade Li Chunchang sat up straight and said with a solemn face.
Lin Zifeng nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile, "I look forward to your performance in your future work."
Seeing Lin Zifeng finish this sentence and pick up the teacup on the desk, Comrade Li Chunchang quickly got up to take his leave.
Seeing Comrade Li Chunchang close the door and disappear from the Office, Lin Zifeng couldn't help but think to himself, it seems this Comrade Li Chunchang is still so good at observing expressions!
Hopefully, he will change his work style in the future and not fail the friendship he once had with him.
By the end of the year, Lin Zifeng became even busier.
With only one week left until the Spring Festival, Lin Zifeng first sent off Li Yanran. The two inevitably had some lingering affection. Li Yanran returned to the capital for the New Year, but Wang Ziyan was not in a hurry to return to the provincial capital.
The 27th day of the twelfth lunar month happened to be a Sunday. Chen Yuxi and Zhang Chunhua went out together to buy New Year goods.
Lin Zifeng lied that there was some work in his unit that needed to be handled. Chen Yuxi was already used to his busyness during this period.
Lin Zifeng did indeed come to the Municipal Party Committee, but it took him less than three hours to finish his work.
Subsequently, Lin Zifeng secretly came to Wang Ziyan's residence. Wang Ziyan had already bought a three-bedroom apartment in Yushu City, and it was the kind that was finely decorated and ready for move-in. She no longer lived with Li Yanran.
Lin Zifeng accompanied Wang Ziyan for most of the day, and it wasn't until sunset that Lin Zifeng prepared to leave.
Because Chen Yuxi had called him, Chen Yuxi told him over the phone that she had sent someone to pick up the Old Couple, Lin Zhenqiang, to their home, and asked him to go directly to Mr. and Mrs. Lin Jiahua's home for dinner after work; she and the child were both there.
Facing Lin Zifeng who was about to leave, Wang Ziyan said, "Zifeng, it will be the New Year in three days. I will return to the provincial capital tomorrow morning. I know you are busy, and it is already very rare that you could spare so much time to accompany me. You don't need to come and see me off tomorrow morning; let's meet again after the New Year!"
Lin Zifeng stepped forward and hugged Wang Ziyan. After releasing her, he said, "Ziyan, you have been in Yushu City for a while. After returning to the provincial capital this time, spend time with your parents and go home happily for the New Year! When you drive back to the provincial capital tomorrow, be sure to pay attention to safety on the road. Once you get home, send me a message to report that you are safe as soon as possible."
Hearing Lin Zifeng's careful instructions, Wang Ziyan felt a warmth in her heart and nodded with a full face of smiles.
She walked Lin Zifeng to the door and watched his figure disappear before she withdrew her gaze.
Lin Zifeng arrived downstairs and was just about to get in the car to leave when a suspicious voice sounded behind him, "Secretary?"
Lin Zifeng turned around subconsciously and saw Comrade Li Chunchang and his family of three standing not far away. The three of them were carrying things in both hands; it was obvious that the family had just returned from buying New Year goods.
Comrade Li Chunchang had been in high spirits during this period, as if he were enjoying a second spring.
When the Chunhua City Municipal Party Committee approved his appointment and he officially took Office as the Vice Mayor of Yushu City, he told his wife and child the good news when he got home that evening.
The mother and son were a little unable to believe it when they heard the news announced by Comrade Li Chunchang. After receiving a positive answer from Comrade Li Chunchang again, the mother and son were very happy and unanimously suggested celebrating properly.
During the celebration of the family of three, Comrade Li Chunchang told the mother and son in detail about the whole process of this promotion.
Finally, he smiled and said, "The Secretary gave me earnest advice. I must let go and work boldly in the future. I must not fail the Secretary's trust and expectations."
Hearing Comrade Li Chunchang's words, the mother and son were happy and also nodded in agreement.
Not expecting to run into Lin Zifeng here, after seeing that it really was Lin Zifeng, Comrade Li Chunchang quickly put the things in his hand on the ground, walked over quickly, and extended both hands.
"Secretary, I really didn't expect to meet you here."
Comrade Li Chunchang said while shaking Lin Zifeng's hand with both hands.
"Is Mayor Li taking his family to buy New Year goods? Does your family also live in this Residential Community?" Lin Zifeng said casually.
"Yes, Secretary. This is my Spouse and child."
After Comrade Li Chunchang introduced his family, he called his wife and child over to greet Lin Zifeng.
The mother and son excitedly shook hands with Lin Zifeng and greeted him. Lin Zifeng exchanged pleasantries with the mother and son gently. Comrade Li Chunchang seized the opportunity to say, "Secretary, meeting is better than inviting. Our family is in Building 6. I would like to invite the Secretary to be a guest at my home and taste the home-cooked food made by my Spouse!"
Hearing Comrade Li Chunchang's invitation, Lin Zifeng smiled and said, "I can only appreciate Mayor Li's kindness. I came here temporarily to handle some private matters. My grandparents have also come home for the New Year, and dinner is already prepared at home, waiting for me to go back to eat. I will have to taste your Spouse's cooking another time."
"In that case, Secretary, please carry on with your work!" Comrade Li Chunchang said respectfully.
Lin Zifeng nodded at the family of three, then got into his car and drove away.
Watching the car Lin Zifeng was driving disappear at the entrance of the Residential Community, the family of three withdrew their gazes.
"Chunchang, the Secretary looks even younger and more handsome than on the TV news! He looks just like a young man who has just graduated and hasn't been working for long."
"Mom is right, the Secretary is like a warm big brother."
Hearing what the mother and son said, Comrade Li Chunchang smiled and said, "It is normal for you to have such feelings. But the Cadre of our Yushu City have ignored the Secretary's age and appearance. The Secretary is the absolute helmsman of our Yushu City! Let's go! Let's hurry home! It's time to cook dinner; my internal organs have already started to revolt."
The mother and son agreed and walked towards home with Comrade Li Chunchang while carrying their things.
