Chapter 108 The Spoiled Little Troublemaker (21)

Xiao Ran took a deep breath, then took steady and polite steps and slowly walked into the mayor's office.

Through the window, one can clearly hear the noisy sounds of traffic on the city streets outside. Everything seems to be as bustling as usual.

But the solemn atmosphere in the room seemed to be able to squeeze out water.

"Have you been to Jiang's?" A clear and calm voice suddenly came, like the water of a cold spring seeping into people's hearts, making people tremble.

After hearing this familiar and slightly majestic voice, Xiao Ran subconsciously looked in the direction of the voice.

The man sitting at the head of the group looked like an ancient Buddha standing quietly in the world, emitting an innate cool aura, as if he was completely isolated from the hustle and bustle of the world.

At this moment, the man was concentrating on the documents in his hands without even raising his head.

His long fingers have distinct joints and smooth lines.

When signing, his movements were gentle and steady, with subtle sounds made by the rubbing of the pen against the paper, as regular as an old monk rubbing Buddhist beads in an ancient temple. It seemed nonchalant, but the calmness and composure that was inadvertently revealed was something that ordinary people could hardly imitate or achieve.

Facing such an unfathomable figure, Xiao Ran did not dare to be negligent and quickly replied respectfully, "Yes, as you said before, no problems have been found so far."

After hearing Xiao Ran's report, Gu Qingyu, who had been working hard, finally raised his head slowly.

His gaze was as deep as the abyss. Although he was in the center of political power where people's hearts were unpredictable and treacherous, he was still able to remain spotless, as if he was not contaminated by the worldly atmosphere at all, which made people feel a sense of awe for no reason.

Xiao Ran has been following Gu Qingyu for quite some years. Although the man in front of him is younger than him, he has never seen him clearly.

Born into a prominent family, the family power behind him is so huge that it is beyond imagination.

He has shown outstanding abilities and risen to prominence all the way, as if all the undercurrents and strategies are hidden beneath his cold and aloof appearance like a Buddha, and are unfathomable.

This is the youngest mayor - Gu Qingyu.

At this moment, Gu Qingyu gently scanned the mountain of information on the desk.

The most eye-catching information is the Jiang family.

The Jiang family has dominated the imperial capital's business world for many years, and through generations of inheritance, their influence has long since permeated every aspect of society. Their reach reaches into every walk of life, from finance and real estate to entertainment, making them the most powerful of families, each passing generation.

As soon as the Jiang family's name came out, others had to be polite to them. In their daily behavior, they were low-key but flamboyant, secretly controlling many rules. They seemed to be beyond the scope of ordinary families and were the most secretive and huge giants in this power chess game.

Such a profound family cannot be easily touched, and no one has the ability to touch him, so from the beginning, Gu Qingyu's target was not the Jiang family.

The Jiang family is just a cover he put up.

When a new official takes office, he has to establish his authority and test the waters of the wealthy families in the imperial capital.

As the undisputed leader of the wealthy families, the Jiang family will inevitably arouse the vigilance and panic of other families if they make the slightest move, thus involuntarily exposing more flaws and flaws.

In this way, Gu Qingyu will be able to better control the situation.

The Jiang family cannot be touched, so those who depend on the Jiang family and are on good terms with the Jiang family cannot be touched either?

With a light tap of his slender fingers, the Jiang family's information was flipped open, revealing the information of the Lu and Ning families.

Gu Qingyu's gaze rested on the Ning family's information.

Jiang Group.

Jiang Zhiran had never met such a difficult and troublesome person.

Logically speaking, no one would dare to touch the Jiang family, but the power behind Gu Qingyu is unfathomable. If Jiang Zhiran represents the top "wealth", then Gu Qingyu represents the top "power".

His style of doing things is more like that of a strict and ascetic monk in an ancient temple. He is not tainted by the worldly air, but he knows everything, is rigorous and meticulous, and leaves nothing to chance.

The Jiang family's industries are huge in scale and cover a wide range of fields. No matter how meticulous and strict the management is, there will inevitably be some minor omissions.

As a result, rectification notices fluttered like snowflakes to various subsidiaries under the Jiang family.

Without exception, these notices clearly state specific requirements: comprehensive rectification work must be completed within a limited time, all missing procedures must be completed quickly, and the company's operating procedures must be strictly regulated in accordance with relevant regulations.

Faced with the overwhelming rectification notices, Jiang Zhiran felt upset and overwhelmed.

In fact, these so-called problems are just minor issues that are insignificant and have no substantial impact on the overall business operations of the Jiang family.

But we still have to follow the regulations.

The legendary Mayor Gu has never appeared, but his secretary followed up the entire incident, leaving him no chance to breathe.

The Jiang Group was in a state of chaos. The core employees of various departments were busy with rectification matters all day long. Even Jiang Zhiran had no time to see Qingwu.

Every day, Jiang Zhiran could only keep in touch with Qingwu by sending some short messages, and finally he simply lived in the company.

Jiang Zhiran was buried in company documents. He knew his responsibilities, but the longing in his heart was growing wildly.

Occasionally, Jiang Zhiran would take the time to look at the cold messages and perfunctory emoticons that Qingwu sent back, and then sigh helplessly.

In order to express his apology for not being able to be with her, all he could do was transfer money to Qingwu again and again.

I really miss Awu. I want to see her, hug her, kiss her, and...

Gu Qingyu, he took note of this account.

Ning Group.

The head of the Ning family has nothing, but he is extremely greedy.

Ever since he had put so much effort into training Yan Chenli to become a talent, and saw that Yan Chenli had indeed displayed extremely powerful abilities—

Not only did he increase Ning's operating income by several percentage points in a short period of time, but every project assigned to him was completed successfully and excellently.

The head of the Ning family was naturally very satisfied with such results.

At this moment, he was staring at the young man in front of him who had outstanding temperament and great talent. The handsome man was standing under the bright light, and his already angular face was now even more clearly reflected.

However, at this moment, he lowered his head slightly, with his hands folded neatly in front of him, and his whole body exuded an aura of obedience and submission, as if an extremely loyal hound was waiting for his master's order.
