Chapter 378: Will you accept it?
Listening to Qiu Jian's "accusation" like a machine gun, Li Luo felt a headache.
At first, she was a little angry.
I feel like the other person is really baffled.
It wasn't until she heard the word "bribery" from the other party's mouth that she knew the reason for the sudden change in the other party's attitude.
And the more she listened to it, the more she admired Qiu Jian as a person.
In the context of the end of the world, it is a blessing for all ordinary people to have such an official who defends the country's laws and serves in the refuge.
Therefore, even if he was misunderstood, Li Luo had no intention of blaming Qiu Jian.
However, the righteous uncle's words were so confidential that she had no chance to interrupt.
This made Li Luo very frustrated.
But she can bear this kind of frustration!
.........
In this way, Li Luo listened to Qiu Jian's "education" honestly. It wasn't until Qiu Jian released all the anger in his heart and stopped talking that Li Luo found a chance to explain himself.
She looked at Qiu Jian, whose breathing had stabilized, and said sincerely:
"Director Qiu, I very much agree with the views you just said! I also believe that at any time and under any circumstances, we must abide by the laws of the country."
"No rules, no standards!"
"Especially since we are now in a period of chaos, we must abide by discipline and laws. Only in this way can we maintain the order of our country and society, and the world will not be in chaos!"
Hearing this, Qiu Jian didn't react at all. He didn't even want to look at Li Luo. He thought the other party was playing another trick.
But what the other party said was what he liked to hear.
Therefore, Qiu Jian had no intention of interrupting Li Luo, and just remained silent without saying a word.
Seeing that Qiu Jian had no resistance, Li Luo continued:
"Director Qiu, to be honest, I really admire you as a person, and I am also happy for the people in the shelter to have a leader like you."
"It is because of you, just officials, that the lives of ordinary people can get better and better. I believe that we will be able to overcome the current difficulties and welcome a better future!"
Hearing this, Qiu Jian's frowning brows relaxed unconsciously.
However, he really couldn't figure out what trick the other party was trying to play.
But I have to say that what the other party said was indeed in line with his wishes!
However, how could Qiu Jian be the kind of person who could be fooled by "sweet words"? He looked at Li Luo, who was standing opposite the desk, and said impatiently:
"Okay, Comrade Li, if you have anything to say, just say it. We are already at odds with each other, so there is no need to hide it."
Seeing Qiu Jian finally taking the initiative to let him speak, Li Luo said "Yeah" in his heart!
In a heated argument, if you want to have the opportunity to speak proactively, you must first learn to listen, and then learn to agree with the other party's point of view.
Only in this way can the initiative return to your own hands again.
Otherwise, if both sides start arguing at the same time, there will never be a result!
Li Luo smiled slightly and said:
"Director Qiu, thank you for giving me a chance to explain myself."
"Next, I hope you can listen to what I have to say before you decide what you think of me, okay?"
Qiu Jian said nothing, acquiescing.
He wanted to see what kind of excuse the other party would use to make excuses.
After Li Luo took a deep breath, he began to "self-identify":
"During the time when you were talking about me, Director Qiu, I thought about why you misunderstood me."
"I guess you think that the purpose of donating materials must be to ask for something from you. Then, you think that with my special status in the government, I can solve the problem with just one sentence, so why do I need to donate materials? At the end of the day, you came to the conclusion that I was going to bribe you.”
"Isn't that right, Director Qiu?"
"Humph!" Qiu Jian snorted and did not answer.
Seeing this, Li Luo knew that he had guessed correctly.
It should be said, but with a mind like Director Qiu's, it would be a pity not to become a criminal profiler.
So relatable!
Just by her behavior of donating materials, you can think of "bribery", which is really powerful!
After a pause, Li Luo continued:
"Actually, you are right. I am asking for something from you. However, I don't think that matter would constitute a violation of the law."
"I came here today to accompany my grandfather to go through the resignation procedures. I just learned from the staff member that after completing this procedure, we need to find the next sanitation worker who can replace my grandfather."
"However, because I have some arrangements in the next few days, I have to finish my grandfather's affairs today. Therefore, I thought of donating supplies to compensate for the damage my grandfather did not go to work, which caused the shelter loss."
Upon hearing this, Qiu Jian's expression changed from disdain to a bit of doubt.
But he still didn't interrupt.
Li Luo also saw Qiu Jian's suspicion, and she continued:
"I know you must want to ask why I don't explain this to you directly."
"You also know that my status in the shelter is special, and Director Fang has given me the maximum privileges."
“But I also know where these rights should be used and where they shouldn’t be used.”
"So, I have never thought about using the rights given to me by the official to achieve some interests related to myself."
"Going back to the donation of materials, why should I offer to donate instead of compensation? I don't need to say more about this."
"Director Qiu, let me ask you, if I offer to use materials as compensation, will you accept it?"
At this time, Qiu Jian's expression had changed from questioning to feeling ashamed.
Especially when he thought of what he had just said to Li Luo, he felt embarrassed and wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
Facing Li Luo's question, Qiu Jian blushed and shook his head at a loss.
Yes, how could he accept it?
What Li Luo just said was a request from him was simply too trivial for him, the director of talent management.
Moreover, if a sanitation worker does not go to work for a few days, what losses will be caused to the shelter? Will it be compensated with materials?
Even if he doesn't come directly, just deduct those days' wages.
There is no need to go to such great lengths.
Therefore, Qiu Jian could judge from this point that Li Luo was the one who followed the rules the most.
She didn't even want to bother anyone with this little thing, and she thoughtfully came up with a perfect solution to the problem by donating materials.
Qiu Jian was filled with guilt. He stood up from his seat and bowed to Li Luo, "Comrade Xiao Li, I'm really sorry...I..."
Li Luo quickly stepped forward to stop him, "No, no, no, no, director Qiu, get up quickly."
As she said this, she helped Qiu Jian up.
