Guan Feng thought about it and decided to invite Wang Yayue after all.

Although their relationship hadn't reached that stage yet, since they both thought the other was good, they could definitely get to know each other better. Besides, he had heard that Director Huang had put in a good word for him to help him get promoted and pass the evaluation so smoothly.

He said, "Lily, you invited me... never mind, I'll say it myself."

Huang Lili said, "Then I'll tell my parents that I won't be going home for dinner tonight."

Guan Feng nodded, opened WeChat and sent a message to Wang Yayue: "I wonder if our Officer Wang is free to have dinner together tonight?"

He replied almost instantly.

Wang Yayue: Oh? Are you celebrating your promotion?

Guan Feng laughed: I knew I couldn't hide it from you. So what? Tonight at the seafood restaurant, it's my treat. The whole squadron will be there. I wonder if you have time?

Wang Yayue: But what if I have plans with my best friend tonight?

Guan Feng laughed and said: "Of course we'll bring them along. Do we need one more person's bill?"

Wang Yayue: I almost forgot, you're a tycoon now.

Guan Feng: Haha! I also have to thank Uncle Huang for his kind words, otherwise it wouldn't have been so fast this time.

Wang Yayue: Don't mention it! My dad said you should have been promoted a long time ago.

Guan Feng: Please thank our uncle for me.

Wang Yayue: Okay.

Guan Feng: See you tonight?

Wang Yayue: See you there!

......

The Huang family.

Huang Lili's parents were sitting on the sofa.

The two had just hung up on Huang Lili.

Huang's mother said, "This child! He didn't even tell us he wasn't coming home for dinner. We've prepared a whole table of dishes. How are we, the two old folks, supposed to finish it all?"

Mr. Huang asked, "Aren't you coming home for dinner? Is something wrong?"

Huang's mother said, "They said their team leader was promoted and they were going to eat at a seafood restaurant. She couldn't refuse. I think this girl just thinks the food at home is too bland and wants to go out for a change."

Mr. Huang laughed and said, "Promotion? That means it's Xiao Guan. Let her go eat. It's not good for her to always be under our noses."

Huang's mother asked, "You know about this?"

Mr. Huang nodded and was about to introduce Guan Feng.

The phone rang again for Huang's mother.

Connected!

It was a call from her eldest daughter.

He said he was going to a colleague's promotion dinner and wouldn't be going home for dinner, etc.

Mrs. Huang sighed and hung up the phone, then said to Mr. Huang, "Well, Ya Yue isn't coming back either. I think it'll just be the two of us eating tonight."

Upon hearing his daughter's voice, Mr. Huang laughed and said, "This is good news! Ya Yue is going too, which must be Guan Feng's invitation. I think you might be able to hold your grandson soon."

Huang's mother asked in surprise, "You mean that young man from last time?"

Mr. Huang nodded.

Huang's mother immediately grabbed Huang's father and started asking him all sorts of questions.

From age, height, and appearance to driving background and work ability... he clearly had an attitude of getting to the bottom of things.

A moment later.

Mother Huang's mouth was dry from talking, and she said with satisfaction, "Looking at it this way, this little Guan is really quite good!"

Mr. Huang said, "What do you mean 'not bad'? Their conditions are one in a hundred. There isn't a single young person in the entire Municipal Bureau who can compare. Otherwise, how could your eldest daughter have such poor taste?"

Huang's mother snorted, "Our Ya Yue isn't bad either. Besides, her job is good, but it's still a fixed salary. Don't look at me like that. A stable job is good, but if both of you are on fixed salaries, what if you need money urgently in the future? Won't we, the old couple, have to help out?"

Mr. Huang laughed and said, "Then you probably won't have that opportunity! Just today, Xiao Guan's expert application was approved. In addition to our municipal bureau, there's also the provincial department's expert subsidy. Do you know how much it is?"

"How many?"

"Sixty thousand!"

Mother Huang's mouth dropped open in disbelief: "A month?"

Mr. Huang nodded and said, "Otherwise what! Do you think they care about your little bit of money? So don't worry so much. If Ya Yue can really get together with Xiao Guan, I'll have half the worries I have in my life."

Huang's mother was completely astonished.

Sixty thousand?

A month?

That's 720,000 a year?

This doesn't even include wages.

Good heavens!

What amazing taste do you have for your own daughter?

She was almost beaming with joy as she exclaimed, "That's wonderful!" Then she paused, her professional instincts kicking in, and hesitated, "Old Huang, this money... could there be a problem?"

Mr. Huang said, both amused and exasperated, "What are you thinking? This is an expert stipend from both the provincial and municipal levels, directly funded by the government, transparent and fair. Can't you, a prosecutor, think of something good all day long?"

Huang's mother said awkwardly, "I'm just thinking about my daughter's happiness for the rest of her life."

Mother Huang waved her hand and said, "It's not even close to being settled yet."

Huang's mother snorted, "Anyway, I think this little Guan is pretty good! If Ya Yue dares to complain again, I'll break her legs."

Father Huang: "..."

......

Seafood restaurant.

It's the same as last time.

Guan Feng arranged three large tables for the guests.

Now his identity is not only the leader of the second group, but also the deputy captain of the second squadron. In name, the first group is also under his jurisdiction, so he invited the first group to attend as well.

Director Bai and Zheng Yuandong were also invited to attend.

Everyone took their seats.

Director Bai glanced around and said with a rare touch of humor, "I hope no one's filming us again this time?"

Everyone burst into laughter.

Zheng Yuandong then asked, "Xiao Guan, the espionage case has been solved. When will the Municipal Bureau issue a clarification?"

Upon hearing this, Guan Feng said solemnly, "When I returned from the provincial capital this afternoon, the spy case had just been wrapped up. I estimate that the municipal bureau will release the news tomorrow. I'm sorry to have troubled everyone during this time."
