Chapter 90: You Harm Me, I Play You
"Oh, so that’s the situation. Da Gui is quite generous, has many friends, and is quite enthusiastic about his work, so he’s a pretty decent person. The only thing is that he doesn’t seem to get along well with the leaders in town, and over the years, he’s only been a publicity committee member."
Ms. Liu’s ambiguous words revealed a sense of helplessness. Perhaps Zhou Daguai was alright in the eyes of his colleagues, but it was clear that he wasn’t highly regarded by Li Haiping, so Lin Fan probably understood that he might not be the right candidate for the position of resident secretary this time.
"Alright, I think I understand now. Thank you, Ms. Liu."
After receiving this information, Lin Fan showed a slight smile. He wasn’t afraid of Da Gui having a poor relationship with the leaders; he was more concerned that Da Gui might be too close to Li Haiping, which would leave no room for him to maneuver. Now, it seemed he could indeed stir some things up.
"Knock, knock, knock..."
Not long after Ms. Liu had left, the office door was knocked on again, and Zhou Daguai entered with a smile.
"Mayor Lin, I just came to confirm if you’re free tonight."
"I am free, but it might be troublesome for your wife; why don’t we go to a restaurant and have the fish stewed instead? There’s no need for such trouble."
