Brilliant Years 1991

Chapter 89: After Drinking, It Adds Color

Extra chapter for the leader "Si Gong"! Thank you for the reward!

***
Cao Yukun had no choice but to stop and turned around helplessly, but he didn't expect that Zhao Xiaolan had already chased him two steps, grabbed his wrist and pulled him into the open door.

"Director Zhao, I..."

"Come, come and see!"

This is the sixth floor of the guesthouse, the best floor. This floor should generally have the highest-end suites. It was newly renovated two or three years ago and everything is quite new. In this era, it is considered a high-end hotel.

Bathroom, living room, bedroom...

Well, there really is no one else.

By the way, when Zhao Xiaolan opened the door just now, she was obviously wearing pajamas, with an extra coat on her upper body. In the middle of the night, a female leader who was not in her twilight years but definitely not old, and most importantly, was extremely beautiful, appeared in the suite of the guesthouse instead of going home - how could there not be a misunderstanding?

"Did you see clearly? Don't spread bad things about me when you go out. If I hear it, I will never forgive you!"

Zhao Xiaolan looked furious, leaving Cao Yukun helpless and he had no choice but to apologize again and again, "I see clearly, I see clearly, I promise not to say anything nonsense! I absolutely promise!"

Only then did Zhao Xiaolan angrily let go of his wrist.

As a lesbian, if rumors like that were to spread, she would obviously be ruined.

So, in fact, even if this had not happened, Cao Yukun would never have gone out and told others about this matter.

"Director Zhao, calm down. I really was... it was purely coincidental, and I didn't mean any harm. I just suddenly remembered that I left my cell phone in the car, and wanted to go back and get it..."

Although he knew it was nonsense, Cao Yukun still made up a reason.

Zhao Xiaolan's expression really improved a little. She looked up at him and asked, "Why are you here at the guesthouse so late at night? Are you looking for Mr. Xu?"

Cao Yukun shook his head. "No, I drank a little too much. I was worried that it would be unsafe to drive at night, so I booked a room and planned to sleep in the guesthouse for the night."

Zhao Xiaolan quickly felt relieved after hearing this.

Although Cao Yukun had called her "Aunt Zhao" before, the age difference between the two was not that big. More importantly, it was not appropriate for a man and a woman to stay together for long in the middle of the night. So he simply cleared up the misunderstanding and said, "Then Director Zhao, you can take a rest. I'm going to bed too. I'm sleepy!"

"Well!"

The misunderstanding was resolved, and Zhao Xiaolan naturally stopped pestering him and walked him out a few steps. But suddenly, she said, "Oh, by the way, you ran so fast yesterday that I didn't have a chance to ask you...Did you really get rich? Mr. Kun?"

Cao Yukun turned around and said, "Hey, what's the point of calling me Mr. Kun or not? Just call me Little Cao!"

Zhao Xiaolan smiled when she heard that.

It is estimated that she drank a lot at night, but her alcohol tolerance is too strong. She can drink a pound or two of strong liquor without delaying her work. Cao Yukun witnessed this more than once when he was in the small team, but...

After all, alcohol adds color.

She was beautiful, with particularly delicate features, and she looked exceptionally young, otherwise Cao Yukun would not have called her "Aunt Zhao" once and then been unable to call her that a second time.

At this time, she had drunk some wine, and her face looked pink and tender like a young girl. The light from the junction of the bedroom and the living room shone on her, making her face look even more beautiful, as if it were a rosy cloud.

If you glance down again, you will find that although she is wearing an extra coat, the neckline of her pajamas is a little low, and the two lumps of flesh on her chest are pulled down, revealing a large area of ​​her snow-white chest.

It feels like there's a bit of mature woman's...charm inexplicably.

But in fact, she was definitely not a flirtatious woman. Otherwise, with her position, her looks, and the fact that she was a divorced woman, even if she had hidden it well, she would have been exposed by someone after all these years! ——But the result was that there was almost no gossip about her.

This is very rare!

"You can't call me Xiao Cao anymore, but I'm not doing business either, so I'm not afraid that you won't give me face. If I call you Mr. Kun, I'll always think you're still a little brat... Forget it, I'll call you Yu Kun from now on!"

She smiled casually, her expression vague and charming.

Cao Yukun smiled, "That's fine! Director Zhao, I'll continue looking for my room! You can have some rest!"

She asked, "I haven't found the room yet? What's the room number?"

Cao Yukun told her the room number. She said "Oh" and raised her finger. After sending Cao Yukun to the door, she pointed casually, "Here, that room!"

As she said this, she held onto the door frame with one hand and leaned her body out of the door. Cao Yukun subconsciously couldn't help but lower his head to glance into her drooping collar - damn, his blood suddenly became engorged in an instant.

After thanking him, Cao Yukun left quickly, opened the door and turned back to thank him again. But after closing the door, he sighed, took off all his clothes at the first moment, ran to turn on the faucet, ran cold water and started to shower - the cold water made him shiver, and he felt better and wilted.

…………

The next morning, Cao Yukun got up early, went out for a run, came back to take a shower, dressed neatly, went to the restaurant of the guesthouse to have a simple breakfast, and then went downstairs to check out.

Huang Jiaying's call was received yesterday afternoon. She had already submitted her resignation. It was said that her parents did not agree, but she was determined to resign. At most, her superiors would delay the approval. She was too lazy to wait and said that she could go to work at the beverage factory at any time. Cao Yukun planned to call her after breakfast and arrange for her to start work.

As it turned out, by coincidence, Zhao Xiaolan happened to come out of the breakfast room when I was checking out.

She didn't mean to check out, but when she saw Cao Yukun, she walked over with a smile, nodded to Cao Yukun, and then walked out the door.

However, when Cao Yukun went out, he found her standing outside the door.

"Are you busy? Give me a ride?"

"Of course." So Cao Yukun went over to open the car door and waited for her to sit in the passenger seat before starting the car. However, before the car started, she took the initiative to say, "I forgot to tell you last night. You should pay attention these few days. I think some leaders from the county will come to inspect your beverage factory. Of course, I will notify you in advance."

"Oh...ok, I understand."

"In fact, if you are smart, you should take the initiative to visit the leaders."

Cao Yukun turned her head to look over, and she was looking over as well. Their eyes met, and she said, "It's not a good idea to ask the leaders to come to you on their own initiative."

Cao Yukun laughed, but after thinking about it, it made sense, so he said, "Then Director Zhao, can you introduce me to someone? I'll go and report my work there."

The chance encounter that night actually meant that I had already been exposed!
So what Zhao Xiaolan said was right. She should indeed take the initiative and report her work to her leaders. After all, her beverage factory was in Fuping and must be managed by the local officials.

Zhao Xiaolan was indeed very satisfied and nodded, "Not bad! You really seem to have made some money, much better than before... By the way, you really made tens of millions!"

"Hey...I did make some money."

"Tsk! Still hiding it, what era is this? Are you afraid of being known for being rich? Being rich has long been glorious. After the Southern Tour Speech came out, all levels and departments from top to bottom are encouraging investment attraction. Rich people like you, big bosses, will really be in great demand in the future!"

"Haha, I don't know about other people, but I have a red heart towards the sun! I want to give back to my hometown when I have some money, try to run the factory well, and help our government solve employment problems!"

Zhao Xiaolan burst out laughing, but couldn't help but tease, "As expected of someone who has driven for the leaders for a few months, you memorized this phrase really well!"

However, after saying that, she couldn't help but turn her head subconsciously and look at Cao Yukun seriously again. A few months ago, in her eyes, Cao Yukun was still a child! And he was a rather jerk and ignorant child, which was actually quite annoying.

He may not be able to handle the important tasks well, but he often causes a lot of trouble.

Zhao Xiaolan fired him on the pretext of fighting, and far from feeling embarrassed, she felt relieved as if she had gotten rid of a small trouble.

However, who could have thought that in just a few months, this child in his eyes would suddenly grow up and become Mr. Kun, who even the big businessmen from Shanghai were polite to...

According to Xu Hualei, his current net worth is already tens of millions, and by the end of the year, his net worth will definitely exceed 100 million - what a scary concept!

Although Fuping County is not very developed, with many mountains, little arable land, and generally weak enterprises, its economic performance has basically been at the bottom of Xizhou City for many years. But looking at the whole country, even if it cannot make it into the top 100 counties that have just been released in the past two years, it is not much behind. If it were placed in other provinces and cities, it would be considered one of the top students.

But even so, Fuping County's GDP in 1991 was just over 6 million!
Cao Yukun himself can actually take away 100 million yuan soon!

There are many private enterprises in Fuping County, which is considered developed. Some of them are even star enterprises in the province, and a considerable number of wealthy bosses have emerged from them. The most typical ones are Song Hongxing and Xie Zhaofang!
But even between the two of them, Song Hongxing should be richer, estimated to be around 20 million, and Xie Zhaofang is estimated to be less than 20 million - Cao Yukun is now richer than the two of them combined!
Look, this is a young man who is only nineteen years old!

Moreover, he became rich so quickly and so rapidly that it was obvious that he was able to grasp the pulse of development better than Song Hongxing and Xie Zhaofang, two local entrepreneurs who had become rich earlier - they were in the financial field!

That's not something that ordinary people can handle!

In time, I'm afraid this young man will become...

She was staring at that really pretty face, thinking about all sorts of things. Suddenly, Cao Yukun asked, "Oh, by the way, Sister Xiaolan, have you been living in a guesthouse recently? Why don't you go home?"

When Zhao Xiaolan heard him ask this, her mood suddenly became bad again.

She didn't care that Cao Yukun suddenly changed his tone and called her "sister", but she was embarrassed about not having a home to go back to. "Why are you asking this?"

She paused, as if she remembered that the man who was working as her driver was already the richest man in Fuping County, and in the future he would most likely be the richest man in Xizhou City, or even the entire province. She suddenly felt that her tone was too harsh, and after thinking about it, she felt really helpless, so she sighed, half explaining and half complaining, "Why else? I had a fight with my family!"

Cao Yukun turned his head and looked at her without saying anything.

Sure enough, she seemed to have found an outlet to vent her anger, and she started talking quickly, "You've been driving in the county for a few months, and you must have heard people gossiping about me. I'm divorced, so there's nothing shameful about it. It's normal not to want to get married, right? Why should I harm someone's next family? I don't mind finding a second marriage, but the one who is willing to find me must be a second marriage with children. I don't want to be someone's stepmother..."

Uh...well...it seems my family is pressuring me to get married.

She was honest enough.

Her divorce must have been a big deal at the time - it was certainly not something she wanted to publicize, but she must have been the office director at the county government at that time, and she was also a great beauty, so people from top to bottom in the county paid attention to her, so there was no need for anyone to publicize it. As soon as she got divorced, gossip was everywhere.

At that time, Cao Yukun was still in high school, so he hadn't heard much about the gossip. It was only after he joined the county government's small motorcade that he heard vague mentions of the person, and later he slowly found out about the gossip.

Just two years ago, in 90, someone suddenly broke the news that the couple had divorced. The reason was simple, especially in that era, it was normal - they had been married for five or six years and had no children.

These days, it seems that no one is going to seriously do any examinations to check for unmarried and infertile people. As long as a woman cannot have a child, everyone will say that it is definitely the woman's problem - this is especially true in small places.

So, the man said it was her problem and she had no way to defend herself.

Of course, in this new era, no one dares to take such things as stains and shortcomings of women. In fact, the more such things happen, the more people responsible for making decisions will have to consider the subsequent reactions when there is competition, and they should give extra attention and care - as a result, she, the office director, was soon given a permanent title, which was considered a promotion to deputy director.

However, no one can stop the gossip among the people.

Nowadays, women’s inability to give birth to children is a topic that cannot be avoided.

It seems like almost everyone can look down on her when talking about her!
For a woman with such a strong personality, it is really pathetic for her to encounter such a thing - and now she has to face her family urging her to remarry, which is even more infuriating!

This is like poking at her scar!

After hesitating for a while, as the car was about to enter the county government, Cao Yukun turned his head to look at her and comforted her, "It's okay, in fact, living on your own is also very cool! Aren't you doing well now?"

Zhao Xiaolan turned her head in surprise when she heard that. Then she couldn't help but chuckle and glanced at him sideways, "Not bad! You've even learned how to comfort people!"

At this time, the county government had arrived.
