The Pentium Era - South to North

Buses drove out of the Provincial Stadium one after another. The dynamic zone next door was still brightly lit, and many people were still busy preparing for the opening tomorrow.

In the empty parking lot at the gate, security guards were conducting queue training.

Through the car window, Tan Shuzhen did not see Zhang Chen again.

Their car followed closely behind the bus convoy, and there were many other cars with them.

They are going to the hotel affiliated to the provincial bank. Tonight, all the contestants, judges, the vice president of the head office, and the heads of each participating team will have a celebration banquet in the restaurant of the hotel. Tomorrow is the National Day. These People will go to Qiandao Lake to play together, and then divide their things.

The hall was lively and bustling, with more than a dozen tables set up, and all the food and wine had been served. In the three boxes on the side, one held the president and vice president of the provincial bank, the vice president accompanying the head office, and three others. judges invited from Beijing.

In the second box was the office director of the provincial branch, accompanying other judges invited from Hangzhou.

The third box is what President Mao, Tan Shuzhen and Shen Linlin of the Yongcheng County branch said. The box for the celebration banquet was attended by a vice president of the provincial branch and the chairman of the labor union, as well as the president and two vice presidents of the municipal branch. The president and the chairman of the labor union, as well as President Mao, Tan Shuzhen, and Shen Linlin.

Shen Linlin was not qualified to sit here. She should be sitting in the hall outside with other contestants, but because she was with Tan Shuzhen and they all came from Yongcheng with President Mao, she couldn't say , three people from Yongcheng, two sat inside and one went to sit outside.

Shen Linlin herself knew that she was sitting here because of Tan Shuzhen's influence, but she was sitting here, and to the other people in the box, she actually did not exist. Everyone at the table called her Xiao Tan, Xiao Xiao. Tan, no one even asked Shen Linlin her last name. They only knew that she and Tan Shuzhen were both from Yongcheng.

The vice president of the provincial bank and President Mao of the Yongcheng branch said that your Yongcheng is not simple and has a large number of talents. Look, 24 people from across the country entered the finals, and only two from your Yongcheng.

Only in this sentence, Shen Linlin appeared for a moment, and then disappeared completely. Everyone even toasted together. The vice president of the provincial bank finished his drink, and the others followed suit. Only Tan Shuzhen still had wine in her glass. The vice president looked Looking at Tan Shuzhen, Tan Shuzhen quickly said that I don't know how to drink. The other people said, it's okay. I won't go to work tomorrow and there will be no competition. Drink and have a good sleep.

Tan Shuzhen had no choice but to drink. She had already had several drinks at the beginning. You can’t say that you drank when the vice president toasted you, you didn’t drink when the union chairman touched you, you drank when the provincial bank drank with you, and you drank when the city bank drank with you. If you don’t drink, that would be too hurtful.

In fact, Shen Linlin also took a sip and stopped drinking, but no one would pay attention to her and ask her to finish the drink. Shen Linlin sat there with a smile on her face, looking at these men, Shen Linlin sneered in her heart.

Tan Shuzhen drank a few glasses of wine, her face was full of peach blossoms, and she had a different kind of grace when she looked at people or talked, which made the atmosphere in the box even more lively.

Manager Mao from the Yongcheng County branch was standing nearby. Compared with other people, he was a young man today, so he was too embarrassed to hold off Tan Shuzhen's drink. In turn, he advised, "Drink, drink, it's okay." The alcohol content is not high, and I won’t go to work tomorrow.

If he didn't persuade Tan Shuzhen to drink the wine, it would be disrespectful to others that he was incompetent in leading troops.

Tan Shuzhen had never been drunk before, so she didn't know what it would be like to be drunk. She just felt that she was still sober. As long as she was sober, she should be fine, right?

She didn't know that wine had staying power.

Shen Linlin sat next to Tan Shuzhen. She knew that Tan Shuzhen would definitely be drunk today, but she kept smiling and even pretended to have drunk too much.

Shen Linlin felt that there was something good to watch tonight, and she was thinking about it in her mind.

The door of the box opened, and the president and vice president of the provincial bank came in accompanied by the vice president of the head office. When the vice president of the head office saw Tan Shuzhen, he chuckled, walked over, held a glass of wine in his hand, and said to Tan Shuzhen:

"Xiao Tan, I heard that you are going to participate in the CCTV Young Singer Grand Prix this year?"

"Yes, November." Tan Shuzhen quickly picked up the wine glass and said.

"Come on, our head office will organize people to go to the scene to cheer you on."

"Thank you, President!"

"Try to bring glory to our bank."

"I will try my best, President."

"Okay, then I wish you immediate success!" the vice president said, finishing the drink in one gulp.

Tan Shuzhen herself is usually in charge of reception work. She knew that in this case, she had to drink it all in one gulp. She quickly raised her glass and drank the wine. The vice president was very happy and kept nodding. Not bad, not bad, Xiao Tan good.

The governor of the provincial bank on the side also raised his glass. Shen Linlin quickly filled up Tan Shuzhen's wine glass. The governor said: "Come and win glory for our provincial bank!"

"Thank you, president!" Tan Shuzhen clinked glasses with the president and drank the wine.

The president of the provincial bank accompanied the vice president of the head office out. The vice president of the provincial bank was still here. He raised his glass and said, "Come on, let me add some wine too."

Shen Linlin immediately filled Tan Shuzhen's wine glass again. Tan Shuzhen felt that she was already a little drunk, but now this was a cup of poison, and she had to drink it.

Tan Shuzhen frowned slightly and drank her wine. There was a round of applause in the box.

President Mao asked with concern, how is it?

Tan Shuzhen shook her head and said, it's okay.

The door of the box was reopened, and what came in were the leaders of brother tours from other regions in the province. They told the president of Hangzhou that although the champions were not us, they were kept by our province and were not taken away by people from other provinces. We must come to congratulate you.

The president of the city bank said okay, Xiao Tan, give them a drink in return.

Tan Shuzhen felt that the wine was no longer wine. It was as light as water, so it was not that hard to drink. Wine, water, just drink. Someone said on the side, and Tan Shuzhen felt that it was true.

President Mao and Shen Linlin helped Tan Shuzhen go downstairs. Tan Shuzhen wanted to break away from them, but she felt weak and couldn't get away. When she went downstairs, she was still a little awake. When she got downstairs, she stood at the door and a cold breeze blew. , people are completely confused.

The old man quickly opened the car door. President Mao asked Shen Linlin to hold Tan Shuzhen. He got in the car first, then took Tan Shuzhen over, half-hugged her on the seat, and sat next to her. Tan Shuzhen tilted her head and leaned against her. He fell asleep on his shoulder.

"Have you got everything?" President Mao asked.

"Take it, take it," said Shen Linlin, who was sitting in the passenger seat.

"Okay, old man, let's go back to the hotel." President Mao said.

The Nissan van stopped at the gate of the International Building. President Mao and the old man got Tan Shuzhen out of the car. President Mao put his arms around Tan Shuzhen's waist. Tan Shuzhen's whole body was hanging on President Mao. The old man wanted to help get Tan Shuzhen together. When I went upstairs, a security guard came over and said, "Sorry, sir, you can't park here."

President Mao said to the old man: "You go, go, as long as Xiao Shen and I are here."

The old man said okay, got in the car and drove away.

President Mao was holding Tan Shuzhen, Shen Linlin was carrying her own bag on her shoulder, Tan Shuzhen's bag, and Executive Mao's bag in her hand.

They entered the elevator, which went up and stopped at the eleventh floor. The three of them walked out of the elevator and walked towards Shen Linlin and Tan Shuzhen's room. President Mao said to open the door quickly.

Shen Linlin held the key card in her hand, turned the back of her hand, hid the key card, and said, "The key card is at Zhenzhen's place."

"Stupid, hurry up and look for it in her bag." President Mao said, reaching out with one hand and feeling in Tan Shuzhen's pocket, but he couldn't find the key.

"No." Shen Linlin said.

"Let's do the math. Go to my room first. My key tag is in my bag. Please take it." President Mao said.

Shen Linlin found the key tag from President Mao's bag, walked to President Mao's room diagonally opposite, and opened the door.

President Mao and Shen Linlin carried the drunk Tan Shuzhen into the room and laid her down. Only then did President Mao let out a long sigh.

President Mao and Shen Linlin looked at each other and laughed. Shen Linlin said that Zhenzhen drank so much today.

President Mao smiled and said: "I'm happy that I won the championship. Now I'm famous in the head office. If you win the championship, you will also get drunk."

Shen Linlin's face darkened, but President Mao didn't notice. Shen Linlin and President Mao said, "President Mao, I want to go to my aunt's house..."

For some reason, President Mao felt a sudden lightness in his heart. He said yes, you go.

"I may not come back to sleep."

Manager Mao looked at Tan Shuzhen lying there and said, "It's okay. I'll wait for Zhenzhen to wake up and ask her for the key. Let her sleep here. I'll go to your room to sleep."

Shen Linlin said yes, she put down Tan Shuzhen and President Mao's bags, and said to President Mao, "President, am I leaving now?"

President Mao waved his hand.

Shen Linlin walked out, leaving the door open deliberately.

Shen Linlin walked to the elevator hall on the side and did not go down. Instead, she stretched out her head and looked towards the room over there. After a few minutes, President Mao stretched out his head to look into the corridor, then retracted his head and closed the door.

Shen Linlin quickly stepped on the carpet in the corridor and ran lightly. She heard the sound of the door being locked, and Shen Linlin couldn't help but laugh.

…

Shen Linlin went downstairs. The phone at the reception desk could make outside calls, but she didn't dare to go there because she was afraid of being overheard.

She walked outside the gate. She remembered that there was a card phone booth at the entrance of the International Building and on the sidewalk beside the stadium. She looked over there, and sure enough, there was one.

Shen Linlin walked over and took out the magnetic card from her bag. She wanted to call Wang Linghua. She knew that Wang Linghua would definitely find a car to drive to Hangzhou immediately after receiving the call. Haha, then there would be a good show.

Shen Linlin dialed two numbers and hesitated. If that was the case, then everyone, including President Mao, must know that it was her who made the call. Wang Linghua had such a mouthful that she couldn't say anything. She wouldn't care about it. Will Shen Linlin be exposed?

Shen Linlin hesitated.

A 110 patrol car passed by Shen Linlin. Shen Linlin watched it go away and had an idea.
