Aunt Li wanted to thank her, so she wanted to introduce her to the ladies' circle, since her current status did require her to interact with those people.
It's not surprising that Aunt Li's brother works in a government department and her husband is the director of the Ministry of State Security.
Bai Yajing believed that as long as she cured the old lady's headache, she would have no trouble entering the circle of wealthy ladies.
Once she gets in, she'll be well on her way to successfully building her own intelligence network!
"Brother Li, please thank your aunt for me! This opportunity is very important to me!"
After the Xiao family's downfall, they were severely weakened. In addition, given Xiao Che's special position, many people don't want to associate with the couple. She must seize this opportunity!
When Li saw that she was interested, he was also happy, finally there was something he could do to help her!
"You're welcome, it's settled then."
He got up to leave, but Bai Yajing stopped him.
"Brother Li, you can't let anyone know about the search. Don't push yourself too hard. Be careful in everything you do. Your own safety is the most important thing!"
She didn't want to implicate Boss Li, and she knew the nature of a soldier; since he had guessed it, he wouldn't ignore it. So she simply let him investigate secretly, as long as he didn't expose himself.
Boss Li clearly understood. He smiled, agreed, and left.
...
Before attending the old lady's birthday banquet, my maternal grandparents, paternal grandfather, uncle, and the Xiao family had already arrived in Kyoto.
Xiao Che took a day off to go to the station with Bai Yajing to pick her up.
They happened to run into the special envoys sent by the military to pick up the Xiao family.
The person in the lead was the commander's secretary. His presence indicated that the commander valued Xiao Zhengyue highly, and that the Xiao family's future prospects after their rehabilitation would not be bad.
This can be considered a way to appease the old ministers.
Secretary Wu knew Xiao Che, so he wasn't surprised to see them coming.
"Comrade Xiao, you've come to pick up Commander Xiao too? And who is this?"
He had never met Bai Yajing, but he had heard that Xiao Che had a fiancée, and that the Xiao family had been sent to his fiancée's hometown village. He had heard that her family had taken good care of the Xiao family, and that Xiao Lao had not suffered much because of this.
He immediately guessed that this was Xiao Che's fiancée.
He glanced at him discreetly. Hmm, not bad, not bad. Bright and clear eyes, generous and easygoing demeanor. He must have been raised in a prominent family.
Bai Yajing's background was thoroughly investigated long before the marriage report was submitted. He had even heard his commander mention the woman's family background.
Xiao Che shook hands with him in a friendly manner and introduced Bai Yajing to him with a smile, "This is my fiancée, Comrade Bai Yajing."
"Ya Jing, this is Comrade Wu, Commander Ye's secretary-general. You know the others; they're all Grandpa's friends."
Bai Yajing had already heard him mention the identities of the people here when she got off the bus. Among them were people she had met before; she and her uncle had almost been taken away by the Brother Committee in the military region, and they were only saved thanks to their intervention.
Now that they were officially introduced after their engagement, she greeted them with a smile.
"Hello Comrade Wu, hello leaders, thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules to pick up my grandfather and parents. Please don't leave yet, A-Che and I have prepared a simple welcome dinner for the family, how about we all have a meal together?"
Her smile was kind and her speech was generous and appropriate. Everyone present nodded in approval. The granddaughter-in-law chosen by the Xiao family was quite good. Everyone gave her face and agreed.
