Chapter 192 Fading Pride

While dealing with a group of hungry female guests, Su Cheng saw the screen of the mobile phone on the table light up, displaying a name - Li Baoer.

Seeing the name, Su Cheng smiled.

He had never attended such a crowded blind date event before, so it was normal for him to be popular, after all, he was handsome and had an extraordinary demeanor.

But he didn't expect that such a beautiful woman like Li Baoer would be ignored by everyone and end up with a miserable ending.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, it makes sense.

From what he saw, Li Baoer sat there with almost no expression on her face. She didn't talk to the other female guests and just sat there alone.

No matter whether you are capable or not, who would be willing to marry a wife like this?

A few days ago, he had sex with Jin Xiya, who looked like a dead fish. He was not happy with her, let alone Li Baoer.

He seems to be very rigid, and it's neither fun nor interesting to get along with him.

Instead of wasting time on Li Baoer, it is better to find a more reliable target.

But since Li Baoer took the initiative to call him, just answer it!
After waiting for a month, he will have mastered the ancient boxing skills. Let’s see who is better?

Swipe up, the call is connected, Su Cheng said with a smile: "Hello, Sister Baoer, how are you!"

Li Baoer said calmly, "Su Cheng, come here!"

Su Cheng smiled and said, "Sister Baoer, why am I here?"

Li Baoer's tone remained calm, "Come here, let's talk!"

Su Cheng continued to ask: "What to talk about?"

Li Baoer was stunned. Yes, what did she call Su Cheng over to talk about?
After a moment of silence, Li Baoer pursed her lips and asked, "Are you here to see me?"

Su Cheng smiled and said, "I have a client here. I came to talk to him. He went to see the giant pandas next door. I heard from my godmother that you were here, so I came to see you."

Li Baoer felt as if all her strength was hitting cotton. "Come here first, we'll leave after dinner."

Su Cheng smiled and asked, "Are you not going to continue the blind date?"

Li Baoer shook her head, "It's boring."

After hanging up the phone, Su Cheng stopped eating and went straight to Li Baoer's table.

Seeing Su Cheng coming, Li Baoer's eyes showed a hint of joy and a hint of pride.

You ugly women were eagerly trying to get close to Su Cheng, but now you see, I can make him come over with just one phone call.

"Sister Baoer, are you done eating?"

Su Cheng sat down on the bench next to him and said, "We'll leave after we finish eating!"

Then, he looked at the other person's plate and pretended to be surprised: "Sister Baoer, I know your appetite, why haven't you eaten anything?"

Li Baoer glanced at Su Cheng and said, "It doesn't taste good, so I didn't eat it."

"That's great. I haven't eaten either. Let's go out and find a place to eat."

Su Cheng smiled and said, "I'll treat you to a feast!"

Li Baoer was no longer reserved and wiped her mouth with two pieces of toilet paper. "Then let's go!"

Ignoring the strange looks from everyone around them, Su Cheng and Li Baoer walked outside side by side.

The man is handsome and suave.

The woman under the forest is graceful, cool and beautiful.

At this moment, everyone understood that the two people had known each other for a long time, and they were just the spice of other people's lives.

Thinking about how Su Cheng introduced himself as the boss of an investment company, it now seems to be true.

The one million and ten million betrothal gifts are also true.

At this moment, many women envied Li Baoer for having such an outstanding man who was willing to silently give to her and play with her.

Of course, those men also envy Su Cheng. Not only is he rich and handsome, but he also has a perfect girlfriend like Li Baoer.

They themselves are not worthy of Li Baoer, but they all know that Su Cheng is worthy of her and can defeat her!
Although it was Su Cheng who took the initiative to walk over just now, it was Li Baoer who took the initiative to call and surrender.

Just after arriving outside Manhua Manor, Su Cheng received a call from the organizer of the blind date conference, asking what was going on.

Su Cheng smiled and said a few words, the general meaning of which was that he had a quarrel with his girlfriend, and she came to the blind date meeting deliberately to irritate him, so he came here to take a look.

I got a clear answer from the other end of the phone, and all my worries were gone. I sincerely wished Su Cheng and Li Baoer a happy and lasting marriage.

After hanging up the phone, Su Cheng found that Li Baoer was staring at him, but there was no longer the scrutiny and inexplicable pressure in her eyes as before. Instead, she treated him equally, with a little tenderness.

The moment their eyes met, Li Baoer turned her head away, but Su Cheng saw a lot of things in Li Baoer's eyes.

This blind date event with hundreds of people completely shattered her inner pride, made her shed her original proud and cold face, and gained the normal mentality that a woman should have.

Li Baoer was undoubtedly proud in the past. She was young, beautiful, had a good figure, and had a good job. She was a team leader and was in charge of four or five people.

I heard from Luo Shufen that because of his outstanding performance, he will be promoted to full professor in the second half of the year.

As a 27-year-old section chief, especially in a powerful unit like the police station, Li Baoer's achievements are enough to make many men ashamed.

But if he is placed in a district or county, he would definitely be the top leader.

Although they are at the same level, the rights between them are vastly different, which involves a very important rights formula.

If you think that is not impressive enough, then look at Lin Zihao, who has a strong connection background and is only a deputy section chief now.

Although he has a strong background, he does not have sufficient merit. If he is promoted hastily, it will only lead to him failing to make progress, attracting other people's attention and causing gossip.

But once you are promoted after the age of 30, it will be much more flexible and convenient.

Of course, now that Lin Zihao has made contributions, his promotion is even more justified.

Based on his last contribution, Su Cheng estimated that if his background was strong enough, Lin Zihao would have no problem making a triple jump within two years and being promoted to deputy director.

If you have the ability, you will be transferred to the district or county to take up a full-time position. If you don't have the ability, you will be assigned to a deputy position in the city.

If you persevere, it won't be a problem to reach the deputy director level. But when it comes to the deputy bureau level, background is important, but it also depends on fate and luck.

Therefore, as a woman, Li Baoer should be proud of having achieved such an achievement at this age.

But no matter how proud she is, she is a good police officer, but not a good girlfriend, a good wife, or a good daughter.

Busy with work and neglecting family.

At the same time, because she is too proud, she is not popular with men.

Even someone with a strong background like Lin Zihao doesn't dare to provoke her. This shows what kind of impression Li Baoer has on her colleagues.
But now, after encountering several blows and setbacks in a row, she finally sees what kind of person she is in the eyes of others?

A young, beautiful and well-built policewoman goddess?

Big mistake!

In the eyes of others, she is not suitable for marriage, not suitable to be a girlfriend, and not suitable to be a wife.

Therefore, when she heard Su Cheng directly introduce her as his girlfriend just now, Li Baoer felt mixed emotions.

She didn't dislike Su Cheng and had a good impression of him.

But isn't it too casual to just become someone else's girlfriend so casually, without any sense of ceremony?
But she wanted to refute and correct it, but when she saw Su Cheng's clear and bright eyes, some words could not be said.

I can only hold my anger in my heart, and it feels extremely uncomfortable.

Of course Su Cheng knew that Li Baoer felt very uncomfortable. She became someone else's girlfriend for no apparent reason. Anyone would feel uncomfortable.

But he just wouldn't say anything. No matter whether Li Baoer asked or he just kept silent, he always had a way to act freely.

Standing outside Manhua Manor, Su Cheng asked with a smile: "Sister Baoer, where is your car?"

Li Baoer shook her head and said, "I came here by taxi."

She guessed that Su Cheng was coming, so how could he drive?
Even if she wanted to open it, her mother wouldn't let her.

Su Cheng smiled and said, "Then follow me. My car is in the parking lot of the Crowne Plaza Hotel."

Li Baoer couldn't help but asked, "Are you really accompanying a client?"

Su Cheng shrugged, "Of course."

Li Baoer moved her lips slightly but didn't say anything.

Walking along the sidewalk towards the hotel, Su Cheng took the initiative to ask, "What is Lin Zihao doing?"

Li Baoer replied: "I'm busy with work."

Su Cheng's heart moved, "D?"

Although Li Baoer was a little surprised, she still nodded.

She is organized, disciplined, and won't talk to anyone about work.

Su Cheng smiled and said, "Isn't his contribution this time great enough?"

Li Baoer nodded, "Very big!"

Su Cheng asked again: "What would happen if you got the same credit?"

Li Baoer looked at Su Cheng, "What do you mean?"

Su Cheng said calmly: "I gave him the information."

Li Baoer was shocked, "How do you know those things?"

Su Cheng said: "Don't ask me how I know this. Lin Zihao didn't even ask me at the beginning."

Li Baoer nodded, "I thought he bribed the informant and got important clues." Su Cheng asked again: "I say, if I give you the same credit, what will you do?"

Li Baoer hesitated for a moment, then finally shook her head, "Not so good."

Li Baoer looked up at the sky with a slightly melancholy tone, "If you give the credit to me, I will remain where I am. If you give the credit to Lin Zihao, he will benefit infinitely."

Others say she is stupid, but she actually understands everything.

She has no connections and no background, and her career at the section chief level has basically reached her limit, and she sees no hope of reaching the deputy division level.

Dare to fight and charge, this is not the quality a commander should have.

What a commander needs is to be calm, steady and experienced in the face of danger.

Of course, there is the all-important context.

She comes from an ordinary family, and it's pretty good for her to be able to get a minor degree now.

In their institute, some people have been working diligently for twenty years and are still in ordinary positions.

Their biggest luxury is to get the position of deputy section chief before retirement, so that they can enjoy the treatment of full section chief when they retire.

Of course, it is good enough to have a full-time or deputy-level position.

Auxiliary police officers work as auxiliary police officers all their lives, receiving the lowest salary and doing the hardest and most tiring work. They will still be temporary workers until the day they retire.

Su Cheng was a little surprised by Li Baoer's realization, but he still asked, "Didn't your mother say that you'll be promoted to a regular officer by the end of the year because of your good performance?"

Li Baoer shook her head, "Rejected."

Su Cheng asked curiously: "Why?"

Li Baoer said: "Because I'm not good enough. There is an old employee who has worked diligently all his life and is about to retire. The higher-ups decided to give him the position!"

"Seniority-based?"

Su Cheng smiled, "If it were me, I would have stopped being bullied by these people a long time ago."

Li Baoer nodded, "So you are not me."

After a pause, Li Baoer said, "I work in the police station, not for promotion or wealth. No matter what position I am in, I can do my job well."

Su Cheng smiled and teased: "You are aloof, you are amazing, you have been wronged, and you are comforting yourself."

Li Baoer didn't say anything, and only she knew how unhappy she felt.

Her rejection of what Su Cheng said just now was her way of venting her dissatisfaction.

According to her previous personality, she would definitely take on this case without thinking twice.

But this time she chose to back down.

She was asked to do all the hard work, but she was not given any share when the benefits were distributed, which made everyone unhappy.

This case can only be handed over to Lin Zihao, then no one dares to take away his credit.

Suddenly, Su Cheng asked, "Who is Lin Zihao's background?"

Li Baoer said: "His second uncle is the third in command of the province next door. His father and his uncle-in-law both work in the political and legal departments, and their positions are not low."

After a pause, Li Baoer continued, "And there are rumors that his father may be promoted this year, which will be enough for him to have no worries."

"If it doesn't work out, he still has a second uncle who buys at the bottom, so his future is not bad."

Su Cheng smiled and said, "You see things very clearly."

"I don't need to see through it. Others are watching, and all kinds of gossip are flying around."

Li Baoer said, "There are also rumors that he will be transferred to the Provincial Public Security Bureau after this case is over. The Lin family is powerful and has deep roots in Chengdu. If you make friends with them, it will only benefit you, not harm you."

Su Cheng laughed and said, "I tried to get close to them, but they ignored a small character like me!"

"Although I haven't had much contact with Lin Zihao, I can see that he is not a bad person by nature and does not have the bad habits of those playboys."

Li Baoer said: "Besides, he is a very loyal person. He takes good care of the people in his group. He also has a strong sense of justice and hates evil."

Looking at Su Cheng, Li Baoer continued: "He is very busy these days. It will be fine after he is done with his work for a while."

Su Cheng nodded, "Then I'll give him a call when I have time."

Li Baoer looks silly and makes a mess of things at home, but she is still very capable at work.

It can only be said that there are specialties in the art industry.

Li Baoer stopped talking, still struggling with the fact that Su Cheng had just said she was his girlfriend on the phone.

Su Cheng was smiling and took out his cell phone to reply to a few messages from his sister-in-law.

Deng Mengdie has returned to school and is currently staying in the dormitory, hanging out with a few roommates and chatting.

At the same time, she also sent him photos of several roommates, each of whom was handsome and youthful.

Seeing that Su Cheng didn't say anything, Li Baoer seemed to remember something and asked quickly, "Where is your Yaochi?"

Su Cheng smiled and said, "I was afraid it would cause trouble, so I put it in the car."

Li Baoer said, "It's hot and humid now. What if you put it in the car and it suffocates to death?"

Su Cheng pretended to be hesitant and said, "I shouldn't be bored to death, right?"

"I've never seen a master as unreliable as you."

Li Baoer was furious, "It will be killed by you, an unscrupulous owner, sooner or later!"

Su Cheng smiled and said, "Then let's walk faster, so we don't get bored to death."

Arriving at the hotel parking lot, Su Cheng pretended to open the car door, but actually placed Yao Chi on the seat.

Holding the little thing out, Su Cheng said with a smile: "Look, it's jumping around so lively!"

Li Baoer liked the little thing very much and couldn't wait to hold it. After a careful inspection, she breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, there is no problem."

But after looking at it carefully for a moment, she couldn't help but feel a little puzzled, "Why do I feel that this little thing hasn't grown? The last time I saw it, it was this big?"

Normally, the smaller the dog is, the faster it grows.

In response to Li Baoer's doubts, Su Cheng could only say that he admired her, as expected of a professional, but he still explained: "Yaochi's species are different and grow slowly."

Li Baoer nodded, no longer caring about whether the little thing had grown taller or not, she just picked it up and gave it a kiss, "Little thing, if you follow me, how much less suffering will you have to endure?"

Yao Chi looked at Li Baoer with an inexplicable look in her eyes.

It is not an ungrateful unicorn. This woman is really good to it.

But its duty is to guard the Peach Garden, not to fool around with the woman in front of it.

Moreover, only by following the great master can its life have meaning.

Li Baoer was even happier as she could clearly feel the intimacy and kindness in Yao Chi's eyes. "Su Cheng, how did you feed it? I really want to keep it by my side for a few days."

Su Cheng said calmly: "I am the master, it only eats the food I give it."

He opened the driver's seat, sat directly in it, and said, "You get in the car first, we'll go back to Rongcheng first."

Li Baoer held Yao Chi and sat on the passenger seat, "You're not accompanying the client?"

Su Cheng smiled and said, "The deal has been done. I will let my people take care of the rest."

After taking a serious look at the calm man next to her, Li Baoer guessed that Su Cheng was lying, but she had no evidence.

Seeing the woman looking at him, Su Cheng smiled and said, "What? Is there something on my face?"

Li Baoer shook her head, "No."

Su Cheng pretended to be confused, "Then what are you looking at?"

Hearing this, Li Baoer could no longer bear it, "Su Cheng, you just told others on the phone that I was your girlfriend, what did you mean?"

Su Cheng smiled. "I didn't want to explain too much at the time, so I just said it casually."

Li Baoer stared and asked, "You don't want to explain too much, just say I'm your girlfriend?"

"Sister Baoer, I know I was wrong, I apologize to you."

Su Cheng leaned one hand on the car window and said, "I'll treat you to a big meal later."

Seeing Su Cheng's indifferent attitude, Li Baoer was really angry this time, "You are just a playboy, you don't take other people's innocence seriously."

Su Cheng put away the smile on his face, "I've already apologized, what else do you want?"

"I don't want to do anything, I just want to have a good talk with you."

Li Baoer was holding back her anger. "Whether you hate me or want to laugh at me, let's be frank and have a good talk."

"That's fine."

Su Cheng nodded, "Ask whatever you want to know."

Li Baoer glanced out the window and said, "You're driving, it's not convenient, let's find a quieter place."

Su Cheng said: "I know there is a teahouse not far from your food stall."

After a moment of silence, Li Baoer asked, "Can we find a place farther away from the food stalls?"

Su Cheng smiled and said, "The weather is not too hot today, so why don't we go sit in the teahouse by the Fu River?"
