Bai Lu quickly stood up and said, "Director Ma, I’ll go with you!"
Bai Lu had a premonition that Ma Chengwen wanted to steal her achievents, sothing she would never allow, after all, such achievents are hard to co by.
Ma Chengwen said, "Chief Bai, there are a few investors from the provincial capital who will co to our county for an on-site inspection tomorrow. Your job is to take them for a field inspection. Before that, you need to understand their company’s background and investnt intentions."
"As for building the pier, leave it to !" With that, he walked out without giving her a chance to respond.
Bai Lu collapsed powerlessly onto the sofa.
A strong sense of unwillingness welled up in her heart.
Since starting her job, she had always devoted herself to try to boost the economy of Lianyun County. It was hard enough to find an investor willing to invest in Lianyun County.
Yet unexpectedly, Ma Chengwen wanted to get ahead of her.
"Leader, you’re actually in the bureau?"
Xu Wendong returned to the Investnt Promotion Bureau and found Bai Lu sitting in the office dazed, he couldn’t help but show a curious expression.
In his view, Bai Lu would definitely go to the county governnt to discuss with the county leadership about Ye Qingxin building the pier.
Yet unexpectedly, she was sitting in the office in a daze.
"Ma Chengwen went to the county governnt." Bai Lu forced a smile, then glanced at the gloomy sky outside the window, "Let’s go, take ho!"
Xu Wendong grabbed the car keys and followed Bai Lu down the stairs. After starting the car, he asked, "What is Ma Chengwen going to the county governnt for? Does he intend to sign the contract with Miss Ye on behalf of the Investnt Promotion Bureau?"
"I can’t think of any other possibility." Bai Lu seed very unwilling.
Xu Wendong laughed and said, "Leader, you don’t need to worry about this matter at all, even if Ma Chengwen really gets the county leadership on board, Miss Ye will absolutely not sign a contract with him."
Bai Lu was puzzled, "Why?"
Xu Wendong lied, "Earlier, when accompanying Miss Ye out to sea, I heard her say that she doesn’t like cooperating with n. That’s why she had soone contact you before."
Bai Lu’s heart leaped with joy, "If that’s the case, that ans I still have a chance!"
Xu Wendong chuckled, "Let Ma Chengwen help you settle the county’s leadership first. When it cos ti to sign the contract, the more pleased Ma Chengwen is beforehand, the more disappointed he’ll be then."
Xu Wendong also didn’t expect Ma Chengwen to go to such lengths to achieve his goals, but it didn’t matter now, after all, Ye Qingxin was on her side.
Who the contract gets signed with is ultimately up to her to decide.
As if thinking of sothing, a flash of worry crossed Bai Lu’s face, "Ma Chengwen is one of ng Changhai’s people, I’m afraid we can’t compete with them!"
Xu Wendong’s face showed a faint sneer, "Not necessarily."
The journey continued in silence.
Xu Wendong drove Bai Lu to the Civil Servant Community, then drove away, as he had to go to Wanghai Tower to dine with the drivers of those leaders.
On his way, he bought two cases of Moutai and Wuliangye, as well as a few packs of Zhonghua cigarettes. Shortly after arriving at the restaurant, the drivers, led by Liu Bo, arrived at the hotel one after another.
Xu Wendong was exceedingly generous, ordering many high-priced seafood dishes. Although it was not yet ti to pay the bill, a al like this would surely cost at least twenty thousand.
And that didn’t even include the tobacco and alcohol.
After the al, everyone felt closer to this guy due to his financial generosity, putting arms around each other’s shoulders and declaring brotherhood.
Of course.
The closeness wasn’t just because of Xu Wendong’s money.
Primarily, it was due to his skill in face reading.
After all, everyone knew he was the one who first proposed that Lianyun County’s Feng Shui had issues, and Zhang Tianlong had adopted his Yin Yang Eight Trigrams Plaza plan.
In their eyes, Xu Wendong was considered a master, so many at the dining table sought his advice on their future and relationships, and Xu Wendong provided different answers.
This made everyone look at him with renewed respect.
To be blunt, as of now, Xu Wendong ranked just below Liu Bo in status among these drivers.
After the banquet ended, Xu Wendong saw the group off.
Then placed the remaining bottles of Moutai in Liu Bo’s trunk and politely said, "Brother Liu, I’m new here, please take care of in the future."
Liu Bo patted his shoulder, drunkenly saying, "Xiao Xu, saying that makes your brother unhappy. We’re brothers, isn’t it normal for brothers to look out for each other? Don’t be so polite in the future!"
"With Brother Liu’s words, I’m relieved." Xu Wendong replied with a smile, "It’s getting late, you’d better head ho and rest early!"
"Alright."
Liu Bo said as he got into the car, and then the designated driver drove off.
Xu Wendong quietly stood by the roadside, urging the True Qi to dilute the alcohol in his system, and then leisurely drove towards Colorful Prospect Community.
He drove with the windows down, slowly traversing the empty, quiet seaside highway.
The speakers played Xu Wei’s "Travel," leaving him especially relaxed in body and mind.
At this mont, he even thought, if one could forget all worldly troubles, loves, and hates, and continue driving just like this, it would be one of life’s great pleasures.
But just then.
A black SUV sped rapidly from behind, moving so fast that Xu Wendong felt his car shaking, which startled him into a cold sweat.
"Damn, are they rushing to reincarnate?"
Xu Wendong cursed under his breath, and just then, he heard a siren from behind—a familiar female motorcycle cop sped past him.
Her speed definitely exceeded one hundred forty kiloters per hour, seeming to be chasing the vehicle ahead.
"You really are a survivor!"
A bitter smile appeared on Xu Wendong’s face, and he imdiately rolled up the window, floored the gas pedal, and sped up to follow.
In the afternoon, he had a brief encounter with this female motorcycle cop.
He even foresaw that she would face a disaster involving blood, and warned her.
But the woman didn’t take his words to heart at all.
He originally didn’t intend to ddle in this.
After all, everyone has their fate.
How could he have imagined.
He would et her again now.
What does that an?
Fate!
Fate is the greatest arrangent of heaven.
How could he stand by and do nothing?
The car sped along the coastal highway, eventually reaching North Mountain Peninsula.
The place was desolate, the island pitch black, eerily quiet.
Below was a cliff dozens of ters high, and the sound of waves crashing against the rocks was clearly audible.
"Why aren’t you running anymore?" Ji Qingzhu got off the motorcycle, her eyes cold as she looked at the white SUV. She held a strong flashlight in her left hand and was gripping an electric baton with her right.
In front of the white SUV stood four middle-aged n with dark skin and dirty appearances, resembling migrant workers.
The difference was.
Their eyes were vicious, and their whole bodies exuded a fierce aura.
A one-eyed dragon grinned and said, "Boss, she’s all alone, why don’t we have our way with her and then throw her into the sea to feed the sharks?"
"After all, we haven’t had fun with a female cop yet."
"It’s not like we’re going to be short one more cri anyway!"
