Honestly, Li Chuan was genuinely surprised that Peng Xiaoran would say such a thing!
Hence, his mind temporarily entered a shutdown state.
Because Li Chuan felt that Peng Xiaoran's question was actually unnecessary.
You could totally just jump right in and counter!
Just then, Peng Xiaoran's phone suddenly rang, snapping her out of it, and she left Li Chuan's bedroom with a blush.
"I need to take a call..."
...
That day, Peng Xiaoran didn't co looking for Li Chuan again, whether out of embarrassnt or sothing else.
...
The next day.
After having breakfast, Li Chuan went out to work.
As Jing Tian's driver, one of his tasks was to pick up and drop off Jing Tian from work.
After autumn began, the weather in Wulin County dropped along with the rainfall, with each rain lowering the temperature a bit more.
Coincidentally, it rained last night, so the temperature in Wulin County dropped by several degrees again, reaching eighteen degrees, which is below twenty degrees.
There's a saying that goes well, it's a cool autumn indeed.
Moreover, with Wulin County being located in a windy area, the cold sea wind blows continuously, making the perceived temperature feel several degrees lower.
Even Li Chuan felt a slight chill.
This is the power of the Feng Shui Array.
Taking the elevator to the underground garage, Li Chuan got into the Audi, started the engine, and waited for Jing Tian to co down.
After about five minutes, Jing Tian ca down from the elevator wearing a dark blue work suit.
Li Chuan proactively got out of the car to open the door; as a driver, he certainly needed to have this level of discernnt.
"We're not going to the bureau today, we're going to the county governnt building," Jing Tian said as she got in the car.
Today, Jing Tian seed a bit quiet, her expression was also very serious.
Li Chuan didn't need to use GPS while driving; within these few days, he had morized the roads of Wulin County using his Divine Sense and mory to the point where he knew them better than the locals.
With the leader silent, Li Chuan also stayed quiet, focusing solely on driving.
A mont later, Jing Tian said: "Secretary Li and Mayor Gao invited a geomancer from over there, apparently the geomancer from Xiangshan Port nad Hua Yunfeng, said he'd arrive around nine-thirty. They want us to go with the master to look at the Feng Shui of Wulin County, you happen to know a bit about this, so you should join us."
Li Chuan was sowhat surprised: "Hua Yunfeng?"
Jing Tian nodded: "I heard he's called Hua Yunfeng. Why, do you know him?"
Li Chuan shook his head: "No, I've just heard of this master."
Speaking of which, Li Chuan actually knew Hua Yunfeng. When managing the Feng Shui Array of Nine-Headed Mountain, Li Chuan saved Hua Yunfeng once. Later, his own brother went to Xiangshan Port to gamble, got drawn into a setup, and it was Hua Yunfeng who stepped in to save him. They have so past connections.
Jing Tian: "Him being a Southern geomancer, you shouldn't know him; if you really did, you wouldn't be working as a driver in this poor place of Wulin County."
Li Chuan: "..."
After thinking for a bit, Li Chuan reminded: "Vice Director Jing, regardless of which master cos today, the governance plan I previously proposed is the only one and the best solution. As long as you persist, you will definitely stand out in this turbulent period."
In the official circles of Wulin County, Jing Tian was almost invisible. The fundantal reason is that she hadn't achieved anything significant.
The deputy director of the Public Security Bureau, Qu Liancheng, was similar, having claid illness for two years and basically being hands-off.
However, this ti, in the Jin Anquan case, the two demonstrated skill, making people notice them, but this instead caused the official circles of Wulin County to ostracize them more.
Because Jin Anquan's downfall implicated too many people; it was a deeply concealed chain of interests affecting the entire official circles of Wulin County, so it was expected that Qu Liancheng and Jing Tian would face ostracism.
At this ti, Jing Tian had to do sothing to establish her footing and make others wary.
Only by strengthening oneself can one ignore such threats.
For Jing Tian, political achievents are her greatest reliance.
"Li Chuan, can I trust you?" Hearing Li Chuan's words, Jing Tian felt hesitant; after all, doing so would be equivalent to taking a big gamble.
If things turned out as Li Chuan said, she would win the gamble.
On the contrary, her situation would beco more difficult.
Truly walking on thin ice.
Li Chuan laughed: "I'll use my head to guarantee it."
Jing Tian: "..."
She didn't find Li Chuan's joke amusing at all.
She had been under a lot of pressure these days.
Although Li Chuan's dical skills were impressive, and he seed very confident, Feng Shui wasn't like dicine; it's more mysterious and complex. Deep down, Jing Tian didn't believe in it.
However, Jing Tian also had a feeling that she could trust Li Chuan; this person was reliable!
About ten minutes later, the car parked in the parking square in front of the county governnt.
"Wait here for . I'm going in for a eting first." Jing Tian composed her emotions before getting off.
Li Chuan also got off, watching Jing Tian's figure walk into the county governnt building, then he lit a cigarette.
Just then, a young man in his thirties got out of the nearby Audi, looked at Li Chuan, tapped the roof, and when Li Chuan turned to look, he arrogantly said: "You're the new driver, nad Li Chuan, right?"
anwhile, people started getting out of the other Audi cars nearby, mostly young people, along with so drivers in their forties and fifties. But the way they looked at Li Chuan was very unfriendly.
Filled with hostility!
Li Chuan felt the hostility, knowing well this would happen; he had just started working and pulled Jin Anquan down, sothing that ordinary people wouldn't know, but the drivers for the leaders surely would.
His actions might have affected their interests.
Looking at these faces full of hostility, Li Chuan faintly smiled and nodded: "I am Li Chuan."
"I'm just a rookie, don't know the rules, if there's anything I'm not doing well, I hope you guys can forgive and teach a bit."
"How about this, I'll host a dinner at Yuebin Building tonight, invite you all for dinner, and I hope you won't refuse." Li Chuan said, taking out Golden Leaf cigarettes he had prepared and handing out one to each of the veteran drivers.
The generosity of the gesture shocked these people internally!
Actually, Li Chuan didn't have to do this, but having worked as a driver, he needed to fit his role.
In official circles, not only do you need to build good relationships with your leaders.
Secretaries, drivers, they're important to network with.
Sotis the information they have can be faster and more comprehensive because they spend more ti with the leaders, even longer than the leaders' family.
The king is easy to et, but his guards are hard to deal with.
