Chapter 987 What kind of junk did you send him? A pretty boy!
"Chief, are you alright?"
Assistant Zhou quickly stepped forward and helped the person up. "It's strange, Miss Qu not only inquired about your whereabouts, but also asked about your appearance."
Ask him what he looks like?
The next second, the phone rang; it was the manager calling back.
"Mr. Chi, did you just call me?"
There were people everywhere, and he turned off his phone to avoid making a scene.
I only have time to turn it on now that I'm in the bathroom, so I can dawdle and play on my phone for a bit.
"What is Miss Qu going to the conference center for?" Chi Yingzhou asked bluntly.
"this……"
The manager hesitated for a few seconds before answering, "Miss Qu has her eye on plot number five in the city and wants to buy it to build a welfare home. But Luo Zhong of Risheng Casino has somehow gotten involved with the minister in charge of land and plans to buy it to build a crematorium."
crematorium?
Upon hearing this word, Chi Yingzhou's fingers slowly tightened at his sides, and a shadow rose in his dark eyes.
"Miss Qu had no choice but to try to get into the conference center and find Director Chi," the manager said in one breath. "Miss Qu said that you had something important to do at home and originally didn't want me to tell you."
Since Mr. Chi asked, he answered casually.
"Is it just because of this, and there's no other purpose?"
Chi Yingzhou slowly loosened his clenched fist.
"Is that all?" The manager sighed deeply. "Mr. Chi, you know many people, do you have connections to get in touch with Governor Chi?"
"Um?"
Chi Yingzhou raised a thick eyebrow and smiled slightly.
"How could I ask such a stupid question!" The manager quickly denied it again, shaking his head and sighing.
Mr. Chi was a poor boy before he came to Miss Qu's side and was able to eat and dress well.
Even Miss Qu can't get in touch with someone as high-ranking as the governor, so how could he possibly have a way to get around it!
"It's alright, you go ahead with your work. We'll think of something else here."
The manager didn't dare to delay, quickly hung up the phone, and went out to deal with the bodyguards at the door.
"Hey buddy, why isn't the governor out yet?"
The young man had no expression.
"Which door will the governor come out of? I'm a fan of his and I'd like to take a picture with him!"
The young man remained expressionless.
"The governor—"
Before he could finish speaking, the young man suddenly turned his head and stared at him coldly: "If you don't leave, don't blame me for calling security."
"Let's go, let's go."
The manager dared not say another word, smoothed his hair, and shifted his attention to the waitress.
"Wow, you're so beautiful, and your skin is so well-maintained..."
"By the way, where will the governor come out from later?"
"..."
—
In the lounge.
After finishing the phone call, Chi Yingzhou's tense nerves finally relaxed.
Although he knew he couldn't hide his identity forever, he had considered finding a suitable time to be honest with her.
But it's definitely not at this time and place.
Chi Yingzhou pursed his lips, looked up at Assistant Zhou, and said in a low voice, "Go and bring the person in."
She was acting suspiciously and looking around outside, which could easily lead the bodyguards to mistake her for a criminal.
She's pregnant; it wouldn't be good if she got hurt.
"Bring it in?"
Assistant Zhou almost thought he had misheard, but then he realized that the governor must have his reasons for doing so.
Without daring to ask any more questions, he immediately went out to call for help.
——
at this time.
In the lobby.
Qu Qingli was like a headless fly, bumping around aimlessly, but she couldn't find a way out.
As time became increasingly tight, a deep sense of powerlessness washed over me.
The little one inside her belly also started to wriggle restlessly.
"Sweetie, Mommy's doing something important." Qu Qingli patted her belly and soothed her gently, "I'll make you some spicy hot pot when we get back later."
Just then, a gentleman dressed in a suit, elegant and gentle, suddenly approached.
"Hello, are you Ms. Qu?" Assistant Zhou asked with a smile.
"You are..." Qu Qingli looked at Assistant Zhou blankly and took a half step back warily.
"I am the governor's secretary, my surname is Zhou, you can just call me Xiao Zhou."
Assistant Zhou bowed slightly, his attitude very respectful: "The governor heard about the matter at Plot No. 5 and wants you to come in and have a chat."
"real!"
Qu Qingli's eyes immediately lit up, and she nodded immediately: "Please lead the way."
soon.
Assistant Zhou then led the person to the entrance of the Governor's lounge.
He knocked on the door: "Chief, Miss Qu has arrived."
"Come in."
A deep, husky voice came from behind the door, unfathomable and enigmatic.
That sound...
Qu Qingli felt a strange, indescribable feeling.
familiar?
It seems I'm not quite familiar with it.
“Miss Qu, our governor has a rule that he doesn’t show his face,” Assistant Zhou kindly reminded her. “So once you go in, you can just stay in front of the screen.”
"no problem."
Qu Qingli nodded and smiled slightly at Assistant Zhou, "Thank you, Assistant Zhou."
"You're welcome, it's my pleasure." Assistant Zhou smiled brightly, his words coming out too quickly.
"Um?"
Qu Qingli was slightly taken aback. "It's only right?"
"Forehead."
Knowing that saying too much would only lead to more mistakes, Assistant Zhou ultimately offered no explanation and silently closed the door and left.
"..."
Qu Qingli was even more confused. To be fair, the governor's special assistant was quite approachable.
I just don't know how the governor knew about Site 5.
The spacious lounge is decorated in a classic style.
A long screen separated the room.
Qu Qingli is on this side, and Chi Yingzhou is on the other side.
"Greetings, Governor. I am Qu Qingli, the person in charge of the West Coast Casino. I apologize for disturbing you today."
Qu Qingli turned around and looked behind the screen.
Although the face was not clearly visible, a blurry outline could be seen.
The man was tall and imposing, at least with a good physique, and his voice... was alright too.
"sit!"
Chi Yingzhou's Adam's apple bobbed, and he said in a low voice, "You only have ten minutes to talk about Plot Five!"
Ten minutes is enough!
Qu Qingli composed herself and told Chief Chi everything about Plot No. 5 in one go.
She couldn't see the person on the other side, but the person on the other side could see her clearly in the video.
She sat on the sofa with her hands neatly placed.
Because of nervousness, she squeezed the document bag out of shape, and her red lips opened and closed as she spoke with exceptional seriousness.
“If a crematorium is built on plot number five, the surrounding residents will be affected.”
Qu Qingli appealed to his emotions and reasoned with him: "Chief, please consider this carefully."
"I see."
Chi Yingzhou curled his lips and said in a low, husky voice, "I will think things through regarding the land issue, and I will also have people investigate the matter of the minister accepting bribes."
"Miss Qu, is there anything else?"
"No."
Qu Qingli hurriedly stood up and glanced at the screen again.
The governor isn't as difficult to get along with as the rumors suggest.
Isn't that quite mild!
"Then I won't disturb the governor's work any longer. Goodbye, governor."
After Qu Qingli finished speaking, she bowed again and opened the door to leave when she suddenly remembered the "pretty boy" incident.
She couldn't see anyone, and she didn't know if the rumors were true.
What if they are heterosexual?
never mind.
Don't bother asking!
Just as Qu Qingli was about to leave, the manager suddenly appeared.
He couldn't see the person behind the screen and anxiously asked, "How is it? Have you seen the governor?"
"What type of pretty boy does the governor like? I've brought him along; they're waiting at the door!"
Qu Qingli: "!!!"
——
good evening.
