Chapter 2784: I promised to go back after dinner with her
Translator: 549690339
Xia Anlan was having a meeting in the emergency flood control command room at around nineo’ clock that night.
He had been busy for the whole day, from the morning when he left the house until now. He didn’t even have time to drink water. At noon, he ate two mouthfuls of instant noodles like everyone else.
He hadn’t had dinner yet, and his voice was hoarse when he spoke. His Secretary was anxious, but she couldn’t help.
Xia Anlan sat in front and spoke,””When I was here, I thought the biggest problem in Sea city was the economy. Later, I found out that it was the underworld forces that reversed the economic situation and eliminated the evil forces. I thought there would be no big problems, but this heavy rain showed me more and bigger problems. Roads, drainage, emergency rescue, people’s livelihood problems, corruption problems, and various problems have all burst out. Oh … And some old houses in the Laocheng District. We’ve just received news that the old houses are showing signs of collapse, and the reconstruction of the old city is imminent. ”
Xia Anlan had discovered too many problems throughout the day. He was shocked to see the flooded streets and the townsfolk who were struggling to walk on the streets with waist-high water.
This was a relatively prosperous city in the country.
There were still so many problems that shouldn’t have appeared. What about the other cities?
When Xia Anlan thought about how he would be the next president in a few years ‘time, he felt that the responsibility on his shoulders was heavy.
He assigned tasks to each department.
After he finished, the Secretary quickly served him a glass of water.””Mayor, have some water to moisten your throat.”
“What time is it?” Xia Anlan did not take it.
He had said too much today, and his throat was so dry that it was almost smoking. When he spoke, his voice was so hoarse that he could barely make a sound. It was raining so heavily outside, but there was a layer of dry skin on his mouth.
The Secretary replied,”it’s almost 10 O’ clock, you should drink this water first.”
Xia Anlan still did not take it. He frowned and said,””It’s already this late?”
The Secretary nodded.”Yes, it’s very late. You haven’t rested all day and haven’t had dinner yet. You should rest and eat something.”
The Secretary had been following Xia Anlan the entire day and had seen what he had done with her own eyes. He felt exhausted just by following behind, but Xia Anlan was still holding on.
Therefore, it wasn’t because of his family background or luck that he was able to reach his position at such a young age.
Xia Anlan stood up.”Let’s go home.”
He strode out, and the Secretary chased after him with a glass of water.””It’s dark and the rain is heavy. You shouldn’t go back now. The car is still on the road and can’t go.”
The water on the street was as deep as a River. Half of the public bus was gone, let alone an ordinary car. It was impossible to drive.
So far, there had been two or three people who had drowned in the car.
Xia Anlan shook his head.”No, I have to go back. I promised her that I’d have hotpot when I go back tonight.”
He didn’t expect it to be so late. He was so busy that he had forgotten the time.
Of course, the Secretary knew who Xia Anlan was referring to. However, in the current situation, he would not allow Xia Anlan to go back like this.
He ran two steps and blocked Xia Anlan’s way.””But, it’s already so late, Mayor. Maybe miss su is already asleep. I think if miss su knows that you took the risk to go back so late, she might not be happy. She definitely wouldn’t want you to take the risk.”
“Can you not talk so much nonsense?”
