Chapter 137: Xiao Journalist Comes for an Interview

  After Zhao Yingfeng and Wang Tingxiang finished speaking, the atmosphere was a bit chilly. Liu Siyuan knew he had to make a statement, saying: "As for what Secretary Zhao and County Mayor Wang said, I personally reserve my opinion. My idea is that as the party secretary of Beixi Town, it is my bounden duty to strive for honor for Beixi Town. No matter how slim the chance, we should try our best to seize it. If we always retreat in the face of difficulties in our work, how can we achieve good results? Moreover, the title of Charming Small Town is not a mere name, it can greatly enhance the reputation of Beixi Town and even Cheng'en County, which will be very beneficial for the tourism industry. It's a good thing."

  Liu Siyuan's words were hinting at someone else's work ethic, so as soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Yingfeng and Wang Tingxiang's faces turned very unsightly.

  At this time, Leng Feng also immediately expressed his support: "I support Beixi Town's application for a charming town."

  Liu Dayuan then weighed in after the meeting, saying: "Firstly, this matter itself is a good thing and I also support it. However, on the other hand, I think Secretary Zhao and County Mayor Wang also have their reasons. So my opinion is that I hope the county and Beixi Town can go all out to strive for it, but don't put too much energy into it, lest it affect our daily work."

  After he finished speaking, Jian Zhiqiu immediately said: "This matter, Siyuan also reported to Secretary Fan and me beforehand, in principle I also support it. The county party committee and the county government should also take action, and cannot let Comrade Beixi Town fight alone."

  After finishing speaking, his gaze turned to Fan Yugun, who had been somewhat absent-minded throughout the meeting. Seeing Jian Zhiqiu looking over, he reluctantly opened his mouth and said: "Generally speaking, this is a good thing. I think so, let's have County Mayor Jian and Comrade Sihuan take charge of the specific work together. It's best to also report to the municipal party committee and government, and we can also try to get support from the city."

  His opinion is actually quite pragmatic, leaning towards supporting Liu Siyuan's proposal. In all likelihood, it was because Liu Siyuan didn't follow Zhao Yingfeng in making a scene at the last Standing Committee meeting.

  After the meeting, Zheng Gaofeng, who had not spoken at all, patted Liu Siyuan on the shoulder and said, "Siyuan, I'm not saying you're wrong, but why don't you work together with Brother Li? When Tianfang agreed to form a team and come to Ziwu, we should have supported each other."

  "Some things, we don't have a choice, do we?"

  Zheng Gaofeng stood there for a while, and finally shook his head and left.

  After handling the affairs in town and making sure everything was in order, Liu Siyuan turned around and devoted himself to another important task: Xiao Yuheng's older sister had arrived in Ziwai City.

  Liu Siyuan picked up Xiao Sao at the airport in Ziwai City, she was wearing sunglasses, her hair tied back in a ponytail, and wore a light blue down jacket, not saying much. When she saw Liu Siyuan come to pick her up, she just nodded slightly, which was considered a greeting.

  Even with her continuously cold demeanor, her stunning looks still attracted a lot of attention. She seemed to be used to it, but Liu Siyuan, who was walking with her, couldn't take it anymore.

  Her luggage was a bit exaggerated, with three huge boxes and a small one. Fortunately, Liu Siyuan came with the driver, and the two of them were sweating profusely. If he had been alone, he wouldn't have known how to carry it all. He really didn't know how Miss Xiao could bring so many things onto the plane by herself. Later, he thought about it and realized that someone must have sent her off at the airport.

  Liu Siyuan had booked the best five-star hotel in Ziwai City for her, which was what Fang Xinyi had repeatedly emphasized on the phone yesterday, saying that Xiao Xiaojie was used to being pampered and couldn't be treated carelessly. For example, she only ate specially supplied food, so she had to stay at a hotel designated by the Ziwai Municipal Committee, as only such hotels could provide the required ingredients.

  The result was disappointing, even the best hotel in Ziwyei couldn't satisfy her requirements. After Liu Siyuan helped her with the check-in procedures and waited for her in the lobby, he waited for more than two hours without complaining. However, Xiao Yuheng started to complain first, showing dissatisfaction.

  First, the bed was too hard and the pillow was too soft. Later, they said that the food ordered was too bad to eat. They coldly expressed their severe disdain for the hotel chef, saying that with this level of skill, it's a real miracle that they haven't lost their job yet.

  Liu Siyuan could only follow him around like a servant, for example, communicating with the hotel and asking the service staff to change the bed and pillow. Later, he couldn't bear it anymore and asked Fang Xinyi, "With Miss Xiao's temper, why didn't she bring ten or eight attendants to inspect the work together?"

  Fang Xinyu laughed loudly on the phone: "Usually, Yuhan Jie would bring several attendants when she goes out, but this time I don't know what she's thinking. Maybe it's because of her princess temper, and she insisted on going to Ziwai alone. The people from the Xiao family know that you're hosting her, and they keep calling me nonstop, telling me to take care of you and make sure you treat her well, so she won't be mistreated."

  Liu Siyuan cried and laughed at the same time: "Who is suffering from injustice after all..."

  The next day, Liu Siyuan reluctantly took her to various places in Ziwai City, thinking that he would take her to a few famous scenic spots, let her take a few photos, and consider it a task accomplished. However, after hearing his plan, Xiao Yuheng furrowed her brow, thought for a moment, and coldly said: "What's so good about these things? They're meaningless. Didn't you say that there are many undeveloped mountainous areas near Beixi Town? I'll go take a look at those."

  The result was that a casual remark from Big Sister made all of Liu Siyuan's previous hard work go down the drain.

  There's also a small episode, yesterday when picking up the plane, Liu Siyuan used his own dedicated car, a broken Passat. At that time, in front of the driver, she didn't say anything. It wasn't until last night when they were eating together that she casually mentioned: "I've grown so big and I've never taken such a bad car before. Even the seat cushion is broken, it's so loud when driving, but it's quite interesting."

  Liu Siyuan was in a good mood, otherwise he would have been driven to vomit blood by her. He shrugged and said: "Miss Xiao is laughing at us, the conditions in our town are limited, this is already the best car in Beixi Town. Next time I'll let you ride on our rural area's favorite Xifeng Xiaochuai, then you'll know what it means to have poor conditions. Of course, having a car to sit in is already very good. Sometimes when I go to the village, because there are no roads, I even have to take a donkey cart."

  Xiao Yuhan said at that time: "I know this, don't say it as if I'm very inexperienced. You don't have to worry about the car, I'll take care of it."

  The next morning, a brand new BMW X6 was parked in front of the hotel, and it was unclear where she had gotten it from. Under Miss Xiao's insistence, Liu Siyuan could only let the driver go back by himself, and he personally drove for her instead.

  The problem is that Liu Siyuan has just learned to drive and got his driver's license less than a month ago, with a very low level of driving skills, and can only drive slowly like a snail.

  After about ten minutes or so, Xiao Yuhan couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Forget it, I'll open it myself."

  Liu Siyuan sat down in the passenger seat with a sigh of relief, and then heard Xiao Yuheng say coldly as he started the car: "Come to think of it, this is still my first time driving for someone else."
