After thinking for a while, he became worried again. Marshal Li's grandson had actually come to their department. He had offended him early on. How was he going to live from now on?

Amidst the sighs and lamentations of the border town and the disbelief of others, Wei Baichuan successfully completed his registration and became one of the truck drivers.

The driver needed training, so Wei Baichuan was assigned to practice driving under an experienced driver.

He felt everything was going smoothly and things were settling down, so he started to worry about his wife's situation.

I wonder if things are going well for his wife. She looks so delicate and is pregnant. What if someone bullies her?

Despite the concerns, Suti is doing quite well in the Ministry of Reform, mainly because everyone noticed the military vehicle she arrived in.

Moreover, everyone who gets into the Ministry of Development and Reform is a shrewd and capable individual.

With Qi Bowen gone, their department will definitely need a new person, and they've already mentally prepared themselves for that.

Judging from this man's demeanor, he must have connections in the military. Apart from the Minister of Reform, no one else knows Suti's specific background.

Suti came in to learn and to develop her network of contacts; she didn't want people to be wary of her from the start.

As for the Minister of Development and Reform, he is now afraid of the Li family. He doesn't know what's going on with Qi Bowen yet, and now another one has been sent over.

If it weren't for the fact that he could retire as minister in a few more years, and that he wouldn't have to worry about the rest of his life after retiring from this department, he would really want to quit.

He was more than happy to hear Suti say that his identity wouldn't be revealed.

"Comrade Su, let's go eat together." Just as it was lunchtime, several people surrounded Su Ti, extremely enthusiastic.

"Okay, you can just call me Suti." Suti looked at the women in front of her; she had already gathered a general understanding of them by the end of the morning.

One is named Zhu Qingling, whose father is the Minister of Foreign Affairs; the other is named Meng Yixuan, whose father is the Minister of Public Security.

Both of them came to the Development and Reform Department last year. It's very difficult for people to come into their department, so everyone is curious about this new person who has suddenly arrived.

"Suti, what does your family do?" The canteen at the Development and Reform Department is quite large, and the food there is very good.

Even the auntie serving the food was very enthusiastic. This place really is a special department, just like Grandpa said.

As soon as Suti sat down, several people gathered around her, all looking at her with great curiosity.

“My dad works for the Ministry of National Defense.” Suti thought for a moment. She originally wanted to say that her dad was in Shanghai, but if she said that, everyone would be even more curious.

This topic just keeps going on and on. I thought about it and realized that the old marshal's identity was too special; once it was mentioned, everyone knew about it.

Her father-in-law's identity was the most suitable; compared to everyone else, he seemed about the same—unremarkable and not someone to be looked down upon.

"From the Ministry of National Defense? I know, it seems like that's where retired military officers work. No wonder you were brought here in a military vehicle this morning."

Zhu Qingling looked at the person with a knowing expression, not knowing what position her father held in the Ministry of National Defense, when in fact he was the Minister of Foreign Affairs.

"That's not right. Since your dad joined the Ministry of National Defense, he should have retired from the military by now. How can he still be using a military vehicle?"

Meng Yixuan glanced at the silly-looking Zhu Qingling next to her and thought that Su Ti's father must be very powerful.

"Well, there are other people in the military in my family." Suti gave a vague answer, letting them guess.

"So that's how it is!" Zhu Qingling and Meng Yixuan exchanged glances, both feeling that Su Ti's family must be quite extraordinary.

If Dad works in the defense department, then Mom is the only one left. Anyone who can use a military vehicle must hold a high position.

Suti didn't care what they were thinking anymore; no one would reveal all their cards before getting to know each other.

Besides, she felt that the people in the Ministry of Development and Reform had an arrogant attitude, and she didn't think they could be friends, let alone close confidants.

After a meal together, even though everyone was preoccupied with their own thoughts, they acted like good friends and partners once they left the cafeteria.

The group returned to the office. As soon as Suti sat down, she saw a pile of things on the table. Just as she was wondering about it, someone walked over.

"Comrade Su, could you organize these files?" The man pointed to the things in front of Su, speaking in a very arrogant tone.

"The director assigned me a task this morning." Su Ti looked at the man in front of her, and she always felt that he had some inexplicable hostility towards her.

She was certain she had never seen him. She thought perhaps she had offended someone, and it was possible that he had also set his sights on the position, but she had beaten him to it.

She couldn't think of any other place where she might offend someone.

"The director assigned you the director's stuff. You're new here, so you need to learn more. These are all important things that will benefit you."

Liu Hao couldn't stand the sight of this person no matter how he looked at him.

This position originally belonged to Qi Bowen, and he has never known how to face the current Qi Bowen.

Unexpectedly, his position has been taken by someone else, a newcomer. What's wrong with letting her do some work?

Isn't that how they all got by? As for their identities, which one of them has a simple one?

"You know I'm new here. The director didn't assign me anything complicated; he told me to learn first. And you dare to hand me these so-called important documents and files?"

"If something goes wrong, will it be your fault? And these documents were assigned to you by the director, right? Do you think newcomers are easy to bully, and are using the guise of learning to get others to do your work?"

Suti doesn't tolerate people's behavior; sometimes, the more you give in, the more others think you're easy to bully.

"You... how come you're so sharp-tongued, newbie? What's wrong with giving you some work? Everyone starts from the same point."

“Someone as lazy as you doesn’t seem to fit into our Development and Reform Department.” Liu Hao was surprised that she was so bold as to contradict him.

Back in the Development and Reform Department, with Qi Bowen around, no one dared to give him the time of day.

Now that Qi Bowen is gone, nobody takes him seriously anymore, and he's seething with anger inside.

It's one thing for others, but this newcomer is yelling at him too. No matter who he is, he should be humble and eager to learn when he first arrives.

He's a long-time employee, he hasn't done anything wrong, and he's not afraid even if the director or department head comes looking for him.

"Whether it's suitable or not isn't up to you to decide. If I remember correctly, you and I are just clerks. You don't have the right to fire me."

Compared to Liu Hao's furious outburst, Su Ti, who sat there looking down on everyone, was much more respectable.

"You...you just wait." Liu Hao saw that everyone was looking over and didn't want to make a scene.

Otherwise, if the director comes, he will definitely reprimand both of them; he's a long-time employee and can't afford to lose face like that.

He glared at Suti; he had plenty of ways to make it impossible for her to stay in the Ministry of Reform.
