If you couldn’t see through that, what use would you be as an Affairs Officer?
Might as well go back and start over as an assistant to Feng Li,” Xiahou Qi snorted coldly, and chuckled.
Afterward, as if talking to himself while looking into the distance, his gaze beca distant.
“Last ti we spoke, you indeed gave a heads-up.
Those people, aside from Bai Xiaosheng, which one doesn’t have a complicated background!
They might not dare to do much during the initial stages, but when it really cos down to the wire, they might all dance with abandon!”
“In front of this old man, if any of them dares to reach out their claws, I’ll chop them off!”
“So what if it’s a Senior Affairs Officer?
I’ve dealt with one before.
Didn’t Xiao Lizhi take up the Senior Affairs Officer’s position, and that Wang Xincheng under him, becoming the new Affairs Officer?
If I can remove one, I can surely remove a second!”
“Zheng Honghu is getting restless; I’ll give him an overt chance.
I believe he’s clever enough to know what to do!
If he persists, then he’s clearly not taking seriously, and there’s no need for to be polite anymore!”
“In the end, to strike the mountain to shock the tiger.
If I can stun, I can stay; if I can’t, then this is the opportunity to rid of them!”
The words of Xiahou Qi sent a chill down Lin Ke’s spine.
“Old fox.”
Lin Ke muttered under her breath in an extrely soft voice.
“I heard that!” Xiahou Qi glanced at her obliquely, and said in a cold voice.
But there was no anger in his eyes.
“Anyway, my work here is done.
After I’ve reported to you, I’ll announce the results tomorrow and then I’m out.
As for how you want to handle things, I don’t care,” Lin Ke said.
“You really don’t care anymore, not even about Bai Xiaosheng?” Xiahou Qi asked with a teasing smile.
Lin Ke shrugged indifferently, “What’s the use of caring?
In the end, it’s up to you, isn’t it!”
After a pause, Lin Ke continued, “Bai Xiaosheng, in terms of talent, is second to none.
In terms of age… you said it yourself, you don’t look at that.
In terms of connections, he’s actually quite lacking.”
“Even though Chen Jiutian was the one who nominated Bai Xiaosheng, he must have ulterior motives.
Bai Xiaosheng doesn’t owe much to the Chen Family; in fact, there are so old resentnts.
I estimate that Chen Jiutian wants to use this as an opportunity to display his magnanimity, with Bai Xiaosheng rely a front, and their real intention is to support that Mu Beichen!”
“However, if you want to get involved, Mr.
Mu may not be wholeheartedly loyal to the Chen Family, after all, Mu and Chen are not the sa family.”
“I guess you have high expectations for both Bai Xiaosheng and Mu Beichen,” Lin Ke said.
Xiahou Qi listened with a smile, neither confirming nor denying.
“That’s my thought.
I’m saying it just because I want to.
I’m probably wrong about a lot, in front of you, a thousand-year-old fox, I, a little fox, still have much to learn,” Lin Ke muttered, “Guessing what you think is exhausting!
That’s why I don’t bother to ddle.”
Xiahou Qi laughed heartily, “Girl, you really know how to berate in so many ways.
Right, I’ll look at this docunt now, and have soone send it back to you later.
Tomorrow, when you go to announce the list of those eliminated, take Yang Chengtian with you for an introduction.
Once this matter is concluded, I’ll arrange for you to go on an inspection tour to the south…
ahem, which is actually just a pleasure trip.
Consider it a perk I’ve planned for you.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Ke beca delighted and expressed her thanks before standing up to leave.
Watching her go and the office door close, Xiahou Qi’s eyes fell on the roster and the results.
He picked up the pen and began to murmur unconsciously.
“It’s all a ga of strategy!
Sotis I truly detest it.
Zheng Qinghong is talented but cannot be used fully!
Mu Beichen is talented, but needs to be pried away!
Bai Xiaosheng…”
Xiahou Qi fell into a brooding silence.
…
After leaving Xiahou Qi’s office, Lin Ke returned to her own.
She had been there less than half an hour when she heard a knock on the door.
“Co in,” Lin Ke said.
The visitor was one of Xiahou Qi’s assistants, returning the list and results before taking their leave.
Lin Ke looked at it, and it just read two words, “Agreed!”
Lin Ke’s gaze fell upon the na “Bai Xiaosheng” and she smiled, murmuring to herself, “Next, you have to work hard.
I hope, when I return from inspection, to see you beco the provincial industrial director…”
Lin Ke paused, then continued, “But what I hope even more is for you to co to the Affairs Departnt!”
…
That night, Bai Xiaosheng and the others all received a notice from the Affairs Departnt.
Tomorrow morning at ten o’clock, assemble at Zhongjing University, where the nas of those eliminated will be announced!
Moreover, the final stage examiners would also et them!
With this news, many would probably have insomnia tonight.
Fifteen would be whittled down to five once more!
At the end, only ten would enter the final round!
Bai Xiaosheng too went to sleep later than usual, before bedti, he poured a glass of milk, stood on the balcony, soaking in the night breeze, and overlooked the dimly lit scenery.
“Entering the final stage!
It’s not just ability that will be contested, but power!”
Bai Xiaosheng thought calmly to himself.
“My shortcoming is that I appear to have no backing or background.”
“Yet, my greatest advantage is also this point!”
“The President of the Greater China Region, although I haven’t t him, I know that he must be concerned about this assessnt!
Surely, he has also gained so understanding of !”
“In recent days, I’ve also gleaned so amusing stories about the President of the Greater China Region from Lin Ke.
Based on my intuition, this President is skilled at managing below and understands balance!
Currently, in the Greater China Region, there are many factions, even within the Affairs Departnt!
In light of this, he needs soone without roots or sources yet capable, to act as fresh blood to counterbalance the situation!”
“That’s where my opportunity lies!” A smile curled up at the corner of Bai Xiaosheng’s mouth.
“However, I mustn’t be overconfident!”
“Even if I don’t erge victorious in the end, I must beco the one who benefits the most.
After all, becoming ‘the ultimate winner or the ultimate beneficiary’ is the condition for to complete my promotion task!” Bai Xiaosheng’s eyes glead.
As long as he completed the task, he, Bai Xiaosheng, would be promoted!
By then, whether the unseen President of the Greater China Region wishes it or not, he would have to comply with the will of the conglorate!
Thinking this, Bai Xiaosheng smiled faintly, drained the entire glass of milk in one gulp, and turned to go back inside.
The night passed without incident.
The next day, Bai Xiaosheng arrived at the Zhongjing University lecture hall a quarter of an hour early.
When he got there, he realized he was the last to arrive.
Everyone was present, and their expressions were grave.
It was clear that even Mu Beichen and Zheng Qinghong appeared sowhat solemn.
Zhao Qianze’s smile seed a tad uneasy when she saw him, and Bai Xiaosheng reassured her with a comforting smile.
Amidst the tension, as the ti approached, the door to the lecture hall opened and Lin Ke appeared, striding towards the podium.
Unlike before, a group of people followed her this ti, led by a man in his fifties with a warm and enthusiastic smile.
Bai Xiaosheng gazed at the man, thinking to himself—”So this is the final stage examiner!”
