City Hall
Lu Jingshen leaned back in his chair and snorted coldly, "Second brother, tell the old man that I won't meet the person he introduced me to. He doesn't need to worry about my affairs."
Lu Jingrong warned coldly from the other end of the line, "Are you being silly? You're already so old, can you please listen to me? Putting the old man aside, your status also requires marriage. Don't you want to improve your status?"
Lu Jingshen chuckled and said nonchalantly, "But I have no plans to get married for the time being. You know me, second brother."
If he really had to marry a woman for the sake of his position, sorry, he really didn't want to.
Lu Jingrong sighed, his teeth itching with anger. "Your temper is really... just like the old man. You never know how to give in. You should control your temper. I wonder how you got this position."
He only said this verbally. His younger brother was very capable. If he had been born in the war years, his achievements would have been no less than his grandfather's. However, his overbearing temper had made him difficult to control since he was young. Now that he was older, he had learned to restrain himself.
A few years ago, he went to the south to take up a post. He was simply going there to dominate the country. I don’t know how someone offended him, but he wiped them out. People from the south came to him for help, but the old man was still protecting this brat behind his back.
But he scolded him more harshly than anyone else. Not only the old man protected him, but every family member also protected him tightly. After all, he was the youngest, so people loved him and were angry at him at the same time.
Lu Jingshen sneered, "What do you care?"
"I think you really deserve a beating from the old man with his cane. The old man said that if you don't come back by next month at the latest, you will suffer. Don't force me to go myself."
Lu Jingshen said calmly: "I understand. Is there anything else?"
Lu Jingrong snorted coldly: "Be more honest this time and be more restrained in your actions," and then hung up the phone.
Lu Jingshen glanced at his phone, then closed his eyes and casually turned the phone with one hand.
Smirk, don't let him come over, don't even call him, that's fine! This way, the pain of separation won't be too deep.
Since Jiang Wanning thought things through, she has been actively treating her psychological problems. She no longer consults Chen Yu. A year later, her transaction with Lu Jingshen ended, and she didn't want to contact anyone related to him.
But she would still check her phone from time to time, hoping for a message from him, but at the same time not wanting him to come, for she was afraid that she would lose control of her heart.
Since Song Yuqing started dating, she has been looking in the mirror every day. She exudes the aura of love and always has a smile on her face, which is in sharp contrast to Jiang Wanning.
Jiang Wanning lowered her head and worked seriously, trying to keep herself busy so that she wouldn't have any extra time to think about that person.
Just as Song Yuqing was about to look in the mirror, she saw Director Yan walking towards her with a serious face. She quickly put down the mirror, lowered her head and pretended to be busy with work. She raised her eyes slightly and watched Director Yan enter Sister Li's office.
Director Yan walked in, closed the door, and said, "I just received a call from our leader, saying that we should take Jiang Wanning with us when we go to submit the district economic report tomorrow.
You can talk to Jiang Wanning later and ask her to go directly to the city tomorrow."
Sister Li frowned and asked, "Director, why did the leader let Wan Ning go to the city? Our department is not responsible for the economic report."
Director Yan was also puzzled: "Who knows? The deputy district chief just called and said this. Let's ignore it for now. We will do whatever the higher-ups tell us to do."
He was puzzled. Why would Jiang Wanning be allowed to go? That girl had always been a semi-invisible person in his eyes. Even if they asked their department to send someone to the city, that person wouldn't be Jiang Wanning's turn to go.
Sister Li glanced at Jiang Wanning outside and tried to say, "Director, why don't you talk to our leader and ask him not to let Wanning go? Jiang Wanning doesn't understand economics. What if she says something wrong?"
Sister Li thought of a possibility that it was the same thing she had felt last time, but it had been a long time. Later, she inquired about it but there was no follow-up news. She thought it was over.
After all, that person's position is there, so how could he be short of women around him? But when I asked Wan Ning to go this time, I couldn't help but feel a little worried. How could it be such a coincidence? This girl just got divorced, and that person knew about it?
Director Yan raised his chin slightly and said, "Let the girl go. I just told the leader, but the leader said that she doesn't need to say anything and just needs to go. I'll ask our leader why later. Let the girl go first."
Sister Li's face was a little solemn. She didn't know if it was what she thought, but she was still worried. She said, "Director, how about I go with Wan Ning tomorrow?"
Director Yan is a leader who is almost sixty years old. When he was young, he was a technician and followed a certain leader all the way to the top. The leader arranged a position for him. However, even after becoming a leader, Director Yan never had casual relationships with men and women, so Director Yan didn't think much about letting Jiang Wanning go to the city.
But Sister Li is a woman, and she is very thoughtful. She noticed it during the last meal, so she was not at ease letting a simple girl like Jiang Wanning go.
Director Yan asked doubtfully, "Do you know the reason?" Otherwise, why would she have tried so hard to stop the girl from going?
Sister Li smiled and said, "Director, even you don't know the reason, how could I know? I'm just worried that girl will cause trouble for our department."
Director Yan waved his hand and said, "Alright, let's give that girl some training. She's almost become invisible in the office. She's too honest."
Sister Li looked at it and said nothing more, "Okay, then I'll let her go directly to the city tomorrow."
Director Yan nodded, opened the door and went out.
Sister Li frowned, thought for a moment, walked to the door, and called out, "Wan Ning, come in."
Jiang Wanning stood up and walked over when she heard it.
Sister Li turned and walked in, saying with a complicated expression, "Close the door by the way."
Jiang Wanning went in and closed the door, looking bewildered. "Sister Li, what's wrong?"
Sister Li pointed to the chair and said, "Sit down and talk."
Jiang Wanning's heart tightened, not knowing what had happened. She sat on the chair, waiting for Sister Li to speak.
"You will go to the city with me tomorrow. You don't need to come to the office. Just go directly to the city," Sister Li said seriously.
When Jiang Wanning heard this, she was frightened and said in a panic, "Sister Li, did something happen?"
Has her relationship with Lu Jingshen been discovered?
She was asked to go to the city for investigation. At this time, she was very restless and twisted her hands nervously.
