2505 The mayor today was especially irascible
The Secretary was in a difficult position."B-but the people I'm meeting tomorrow are all very important people. They were all decided half a month ago!"
"Then, we'll arrange for it to be at night."
The Secretary's face was bitter. Tonight ... How late would it be?
Xia Anlan's face was cold."Any more questions?"
The Secretary quickly shook his head."No, no... There's no problem. I'll make the arrangements. But, Mayor, you may not be able to go back to rest until midnight!"
This was what the Secretary was worried about. If the work in the afternoon was delayed, the rest time at night would be taken up.
The Secretary was worried that Xia Anlan would not be able to rest well.
He had always been a workaholic. Other people had weekends, but he never had one. If he did not rest well tonight, he would be sent to the hospital sooner or later.
Xia Anlan did not care about this.""Midnight it is, it doesn't matter how late it is. You just have to make time for me tomorrow afternoon."
The Secretary nodded."Yes, I understand. I'll definitely make the arrangements."
He was really surprised. How much did the mayor care about his sister? he had passed away for so many years, and he was so concerned about a girl who looked similar to him. He could even delay the work that he cared about the most. He was completely unlike the mayor Xia he knew.
"Have you decided on the location for the meal?"
"I've decided on the place. It's at Grand prosperity hotel, I ..."The Secretary said.
Before he could finish, Xia Anlan interrupted him,""How can we do it in Fengtai? is the food there even edible?"
The Secretary was dumbfounded. The mayor had never cared about where he ate in the past. This time, he actually picked a place. Isn't he usually there?"
Xia Anlan threw the fountain pen in his hand away.""Is it normal this time?"
This time, he valued it so much, he cared so much, but in the end, his Secretary gave him that place.
The Secretary didn't dare to say anything else."Then where do you think it is? I'll make the arrangements. "
Xia Anlan frowned and thought for a moment."Let's go to the famous century-old pavilion, something precious ..."
The Secretary took a deep breath. The mayor really knew how to choose a place."The mayor is from the nine treasures building, but didn't you usually say that you can't exceed the rules when treating guests ..."
As he spoke, he fell silent and lowered his head, not daring to say another word.
Xia Anlan looked at him coldly."This is my own private reception. I'll pay for it myself. Go and arrange it for me immediately. I'll book this restaurant."
"Yes, I understand ..." The Secretary quickly nodded.
"Then hurry up and go."
The Secretary was so scared that she immediately turned around and ran out. The mayor today was particularly irritable.
After leaving the office, the Secretary made a call to the Jiuzhen restaurant. He knew that this old Chinese restaurant only served 30 tables a day, so they might need to book it many days in advance. He was really worried that he wouldn't be able to make a reservation for tomorrow.
As expected, there were no more tables for tomorrow. After much persuasion by the Secretary, he finally revealed Xia Anlan's identity and the other party agreed to add another table.
After settling the matter, the Secretary called you Yi.
"Hello, chief you, it's me, Mayor Xia's Secretary. Didn't the mayor say he wanted to treat you and your family to a meal? I wonder if you're free tomorrow afternoon?"
You Yi answered the phone with one hand as he drove. He was surprised to hear the Secretary say that it was tomorrow. She had arrived so quickly!
"I'm free tomorrow!"He said after some hesitation.
"Then let's make an appointment at noon tomorrow. Is that okay?"
