Before he met Lu Yike, Zhao Donglai already had a "soft spot" for her.
At that time, Chen Hai said at the scrap yard that he had not yet told Lu Yi about the introduction, and Zhao Donglai's enthusiasm was undiminished, and he asked to buy two baskets of local eggs on the phone.
One basket was given to Lu Yike, and the other basket was given to Chen Hai, saying that he wanted to thank him, a big matchmaker, for connecting him.
This means that Zhao Donglai already has a clear understanding of Lu Yi and her family situation, and the difference is just to meet.
Later, Chen Hai had an accident.
Zhao Donglai and Lu Yi were not able to appear on a blind date under Chen Hai's arrangement, but they met in a case involving both the procuratorate and the city bureau.
The first meeting between the two, as Lu Yi later said, "the timing was not right".
Zhao Donglai and her both fought for Cai Chenggong in order to "compete" for Cai Chenggong, and the two went toe-to-toe, which made this meeting full of gunpowder.
You're Director Lu?!
But after Zhao Dong came to see Lu Yike's work card, his eyes had a different meaning, and he looked at the "little pepper" in front of him with interest.
Both sides refused to back down half a step, and the experienced Zhao Donglai failed to take advantage of Lu Yike, but he learned her "ability" and was choked by her.
Chen Hai is trying to kill me!
But it was precisely because of Lu Yike's "spicy" that Zhao Donglai chased after her.
Zhao Donglai saw Hou Liangping for the first time and told Chen Hai about his plan to introduce Lu Yike to him.
Zhao Donglai wanted to tell Hou Liangping about this "little thing", but he actually had his own purpose.
In order to take advantage of Chen Hai's recognition of his own conduct, in order to reduce Hou Liangping's suspicion of himself on the Ouyang Jing incident.
In fact, Zhao Donglai's conditions are indeed "very good" as Hou Liangping said.
Although he is married for the second time and has a son, he is already the director of the Jingzhou Public Security Bureau in his early 40s, and he has real power.
Whether it is Lu Yi's leader, colleagues, or his own mother, they are all willing to promote him and Lu Yike to get married.
But it's a pity that although Lu Yi is 38 years old and is the "old girl" in the mouth of her mother and colleagues, she is not interested in Zhao Donglai, the "diamond king and old king".
In front of her, Zhao Donglai's overtures repeatedly hit a wall, and she often poured a basin of cold water on her head.
I said Director Zhao Donglai, don't waste your time on me.
Lu Yike's refusal is straightforward and simple.
Zhao Donglai is becoming more and more frustrated, and he has a kind of persistence that is indispensable to Lu in this life.
Zhao Donglai's conditions are obviously not bad, why do you have such an obsession with Lu Yi?

At this point, even Lu Yi himself couldn't understand why such a "diamond king" was so inferior in front of an old girl like himself under Zhao Donglai's conditions?
But Zhao Dongdong did not regard his pursuit of Lu Yi as inferior.
How can you call it low?
This is called appreciation and pursuit, especially with a thorn like you, don't you think I'm courageous?
If you want someone you like, you have to chase it bravely!
Similarly, what Zhao Donglai likes about himself has always been a question for Lu Yike.
Zhao Donglai also gave his answer very sincerely.
I just like the energy in you, you have a heroic spirit;
Let me tell you, once a woman has this kind of heroism, it will show a different pattern, which is bearing, mind, and affection.
Larger than life!
Zhao Donglai is actually the same as Qi Tongwei back then, both of them are police officers who have made great contributions. His heart is no smaller than Qi Tongwei, who wants to "win the sky and half a son".
Qi Tongwei will like Gao Xiaoqin, in addition to liking her beauty, in fact, Gao Xiaoqin's temperament of not admitting defeat and not accepting fate is what attracts Qi Gaowei the most.
And Zhao Donglai likes Lu Yike because of her "heroism", and she is the kind of "man with a bigger pattern".
"The taste is quite consistent", is Zhao Donglai's description of himself and Lu Bianke.
On the phone with Chen Hai at the scrap yard, Zhao Donglai once expressed the hope that Chen Hai could arrange for him and Lu Yi to meet at the reading party, and emphasized that this would be more natural and could show his advantages.
likes to read after work, and participating in reading clubs is Zhao Donglai's hobby, and he divides his hobby into hobbies that are not for the pursuit of economic interests.
"Literary Young Woman", it was Zhao Donglai who learned that she was also a person who likes to read during her work contact with Lu Yike.
At the beginning, Lu Yi scolded him:
You've made that meaningless.
Zhao Donglai immediately heard that she was using the words in Lao She's "Teahouse", and she looked at the "like-minded" Lu Ye even more differently.
Chen Hai is the leader of Lu Yike, and the object of her crush, and at the same time, Zhao Donglai's good friend.
And what Zhao Donglai was most moved by Lu Yi was her feelings for Chen Hai.
Your friendship with him touched me a lot, people now, it's too realistic, it's too snobbish!
Actually, emotionally, Zhao Donglai and Lu Yi are really similar.
Zhao Donglai was moved by Lu Yi because he saw her deep affection for Chen Hai, and Lu Ye's dedication to Chen Hai was moved because he saw his deep affection for his deceased wife.
Affectionate is rare!
It became the unanimous emotion of the two.
Hobbies and affection are all characteristics shared by the two, and these two points are valued and cherished by Zhao Dong.
With these fireworks and literature and art, and then in the blink of an eye, Lu Yike's conditions are enough to make Zhao Donglai "don't care about wasting a few more years".
Although Lu Yi is 38 years old, judging from an unmarried single woman, she can indeed be regarded as an "old girl".
However, at this age, she is already the director of the Investigation Division of the Anti-Corruption Bureau, and she is still a second-generation official.
His mother is Judge Wu, who has just retired, his aunt is a university professor and an expert in Ming history, and his uncle is Gao Yuliang, deputy secretary of the Handong Provincial Party Committee and secretary of the Political and Legal Committee.
These realistic conditions are no worse than Zhao Donglai's own conditions.
Zhao Donglai was very aware of Lu Yike's feelings for Chen Hai and knew that she would not give up easily, but he was willing to become Lu Yike's "second best".
I know you've been looking forward to Chen Hai waking up......
But seriously, we're all middle-aged now, and I want you to face it.
Chen Hai, it's best if you wake up, if you can't wake up, your life has to go on, don't tie yourself up.
Zhao Donglai ranked his position in Lu Yike's heart behind Chen Hai.
He himself said, "I'm a person, I always like to give myself a little by." ”
Lu Yike's feelings for him, he is ranked after "suitable".
In the final analysis, he didn't have to be Lu Yike, but Lu Yike, who appeared in front of him at this time, was the most suitable person for him.
