Official Career Storm Chapter 21

In the office.

Wu Qiangwei regained her composure, but her eyes still held a hint of embarrassnt.

Thinking about what had just happened, her brows furrowed subconsciously.

For a woman in politics, it was already harder than for a man, let alone for soone with such outstanding appearance and figure—it was akin to a lamb entering a wolf pack in the officialdom.

Over the years, she rose from grassroots and witnessed the darkest aspects of the bureaucratic world.

Had it not been for the care of her family elders, she would have been devoured to nothingness long ago.

Still, throughout these years, there had been many who had sought her out, openly and in secret.

From leaders fond of a pretty face to subordinates attempting to climb up the ladder by using her, they were as countless as the carps crossing the river.

She suddenly felt that maybe she shouldn’t have accepted the old chief’s recomndation.

Song Guanchao was certainly talented, decisive in action, capable.

But the incident that had just occurred made her wary.

The only thing that satisfied her was that Song Guanchao had managed to restrain his impulses, not stepping out of line.

"Let’s see how it goes, stabilize the situation first, then find another driver."

Wu Qiangwei originally had the idea of making Song Guanchao her secretary but felt it was too precipitous, so she selected the newcor Tian Xue instead.

She had intended to use this ti to assess Song Guanchao’s abilities.

Then find an opportunity to promote him to the position of secretary.

But now, she no longer had that inclination.

For her, Song Guanchao’s biggest advantage was not his capability, but his trustworthiness.

After all, he was recomnded by an old leader, soone who could be considered one of their own.

But after what had just happened, she, subconsciously, felt a repulsion towards Song Guanchao.

Buzz buzz~

The mobile phone vibrated on the desk.

Seeing the caller ID, her expression softened.

"Hello, Ru Yi."

"Qiangwei, you sneaked off to Lingjiang without a word, am I still in your heart?"

"It was a last-minute decision from the organization. I’ve been busy handing over duties these past few days, endlessly receiving calls..."

"Alright, alright, no need for excuses. I’m coming to Lingjiang soon, make sure you keep your evening free!"

"You’re coming to Lingjiang?"

"Humph! I’m over to inspect the business environnt."

"Ru Yi, you don’t need to..."

"Enough, I won’t talk anymore, rember to make ti this evening. I’m in your territory, you better treat well."

Wu Qiangwei put down her phone with a sense of helplessness.

Bai Ruyi, a prominent female entrepreneur from Wu’an City.

She t her when she served as a district head in Wu’an City.

Back then, Bai Ruyi had opened a clothing store, encountering difficulties from the local comrcial departnt, almost having to close down.

Wu Qiangwei learned about her plight during an inspection and took down a few corrupt officials from the departnt the very next day.

Because of this incident, she got to know Bai Ruyi.

Both won were of similar age and shared common interests, quickly becoming confidantes with nothing to hide from each other.

And Bai Ruyi had a head for business, creating her own clothing brand in just a few short years and establishing a garnt factory in Wu’an City, solving a large unemploynt problem.

This was also a significant accomplishnt for Wu Qiangwei in Wu’an City.

Although Bai Ruyi had never said it, Wu Qiangwei knew she had always been grateful in her heart.

If it weren’t for Wu Qiangwei’s tily assistance back then, there would be no Bai Ruyi today.

She hadn’t ntioned her transfer to Lingjiang City to Bai Ruyi.

Because she knew that once she did, Bai Ruyi would definitely rush over imdiately to help boost the economy in Ling’an City.

When coming to Lingjiang, the senior leaders of the province had told her that the waters of Lingjiang City were deep!

Thus, she didn’t want to get Bai Ruyi involved just yet.

She decided she would have a proper talk with Bai Ruyi when they t in the evening.

She stood up and opened the door; Tian Xue, still chatting with Director Liu, imdiately stood up: "Secretary Wu."

Director Liu also hurriedly straightened up, "Secretary Wu!"

It was his first ti seeing the new Secretary Wu, and the amazent in his eyes was hard to conceal.

This woman is the Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Committee?

She’s gorgeous!

So tall, what an amazing figure!

He subconsciously adjusted his posture, flashing what he considered a handso smile, presenting his best side to this beautiful female Secretary.

Song Guanchao also stood up from the side.

Wu Qiangwei looked indifferent and didn’t smile, humd a response, and said to Tian Xue, "Co in for a mont."

The two won entered the office one after the other, and it was only then that Director Liu could relax his body, feeling a bit disappointed.

It seed that Secretary Wu hadn’t even glanced at him.

Before long, Tian Xue ca out.

Director Liu eagerly asked, "What did Secretary Wu want to see you about?"

Tian Xue replied, "Secretary Wu has friends coming over tonight, and she has asked to arrange accommodations."

Director Liu asked, "Did she have any specific requirents?"

"She didn’t say," Tian Xue responded with so distress. It was her first ti being a secretary, and that too for the City Secretary, and she had no experience at all.

Wu Qiangwei had only ntioned arranging accommodations but hadn’t specified the standard.

Director Liu suggested, "Try to arrange a hotel close to the City Committee. There are several nice ones nearby."

Director Liu was offering her advice, and Tian Xue was very grateful.

anwhile, Song Guanchao frowned.

This Tian Xue, she really spills everything.

Being a secretary, the most basic professional quality is to keep your lips sealed.

You have to know what can be shared and what must be kept confidential.

Director Liu, working in the comprehensive departnt, was blatantly probing for information about Secretary Wu, and as a secretary, Tian Xue just divulged it.

Outrageous.

After Director Liu left, Tian Xue took out her cellphone to start booking a nearby hotel.

Song Guanchao felt he should still give her a reminder; after all, it was her first job, and it was normal for her not to know.

"Secretary Tian, you shouldn’t share these kinds of things with outsiders," he said.

"Ah?" Tian Xue didn’t grasp his implication.

Song Guanchao said sternly, "Secretary Wu entrusted you with her personal affairs because she trusts you, understand?"

Tian Xue was stunned for a mont, then belatedly comprehended what Song Guanchao ant.

"I... I understand," Tian Xue whispered. "Master Song, please don’t tell Secretary Wu about earlier."

"If I was going to tell her, I wouldn’t have bothered to remind you."

"Right, right, thank you, Master Song."

Tian Xue was a bit frightened after the fact.

She truly hadn’t considered these things.

The thought that she’d been entrusted with a private matter by Secretary Wu but turned around and shared it with Director Liu ...

If Secretary Wu found out, she would definitely be angry.

It was good that Song Guanchao had reminded her.

She thought Song Guanchao was really a good person.

When it was ti to leave work, Wu Qiangwei walked out the door, and Song Guanchao got up to follow.

"I’ll go back on my own. You can head ho," Wu Qiangwei said without looking back.

Song Guanchao knew she was eting friends that evening; she probably had dinner plans with them.

He was quite curious and wanted to know if her friends were male or female.

Unfortunately, Director Liu was treating them tonight, otherwise, he would have insisted on going just to take a look.

After watching Wu Qiangwei leave, Tian Xue ca up from behind, "Master Song, Brother Liu has already picked the place, let’s head over."

Brother Liu?

It hadn’t even been a full afternoon, and the informalities had kicked in.

This Director Liu, his skills at wooing girls weren’t bad at all.
