Lu Wanqing suddenly realized that she had offended him without realizing it.
However, the fact that he was able to escape unscathed when Dillon was imprisoned proves that he withstood the test and was a good leader.
Moreover, she also remembered that in her previous life, he had the opportunity to be promoted to deputy mayor, but it was ultimately rejected because his performance was not good enough.
It seems that this time, she will have to take matters into her own hands.
"Huo Xiao, could you arrange a meeting with Director Liu for me?" she instructed thoughtfully.
"Okay." Huo Xiao quickly went out to make arrangements for her.
At the same time, Qi Wei appeared at Yu Lili's house carrying good cigarettes and alcohol.
This time, he came specifically to thank Mr. Yu.
Just a few days ago, he happened to see a report that a five-star hotel had been built in a southern city and immediately became a landmark building. The hotel was packed with guests every day, and the guests were all prominent figures from various countries. In no time, the owner became a very wealthy man.
He didn't want to see Lu Wanqing benefit from building the hotel, so he thought of making things difficult for her.
Yu Lili's father works for the tax bureau. It's not time for a tax audit yet, so it's not convenient for him to take action. But it would be better if he could talk to the planning bureau and have them stop the construction altogether.
Therefore, he took out a red envelope containing 10,000 yuan to give to his future father-in-law.
Yu Pingwei accepted the thick red envelope with a smile; it was just a matter of making a phone call, so he readily agreed.
A phone call was made to Liu Tiancheng, saying that there were some tax issues with Lu Wanqing's factory, and he was advised to be cautious about the land planning approval, so Liu Tiancheng was asked to reject the approval.
Yu Pingwei knew that Lu Wanqing was a cautious person, and that if he were to smear Lu Wanqing even slightly, she would hesitate.
Qi Wei was overjoyed to hear that the approval had been rejected. He brought cigarettes and alcohol to thank Yu Pingwei, and the two drank and chatted until they were about 80% drunk.
When it was time to leave, Yu's mother asked Yu Lili to see her off.
"Why should I be the one to deliver this in the dark?" Yu Lili complained a little, but in the end she still helped Qi Wei out the door.
After taking him home, Yu Lili tried to leave, but Qi Wei grabbed her and hugged her tightly.
The saying goes that drunkenness emboldens people. He was usually quite well-behaved, but today he was in a good mood and had been drinking, so he didn't care about anything and pushed Yu Lili onto the bed.
The next day, Yu Lili woke up feeling a burning pain in her lower body. She had tried to get it done all night, but to no avail. It was unbelievable.
Looking at the sleeping Qi Wei, she kicked him in annoyance.
Seeing that the person was still not awake, she stormed off in a huff.
I randomly picked a breakfast stall and went in to eat, and I was surprised to see Lu Xiuwen eating wontons all by himself.
"Don't you work in the suburbs? What are you doing here? Are you planning to take Hao Hao away again?"
She sat down opposite him with a disgruntled expression.
"Why are you so angry so early in the morning?" Lu Xiuwen pursed his lips.
He's no longer working in the suburbs, okay? Now he works for Luo Hao, and he's the construction foreman.
Now that he was a squad leader with a group of people under his command, he spoke with more confidence and didn't give Yu Lili a friendly look.
Yu Lili, who had always thought he was a coward, suddenly felt a pang of surprise and thought he was a real man.
Besides, after learning last night that Qi Wei was impotent, my impression of him had improved significantly, and now we were even able to sit down and eat together peacefully.
Seeing that she had only bought one steamed bun, Lu Xiuwen quickly asked the vendor to make an extra bowl of wontons, which he specially recommended to her.
"Just tell me, how much money do you want to give Hao Hao to me?"
Yu Lili felt displeased and retorted:
"Judging from your tone, it's as if you can produce whatever I say."
Lu Xiuwen glanced at her and said, "I can earn at least a hundred yuan a month now, and I get a bonus at the end of the year. How much do you want? I'll work myself to the bone and make it up."
Yu Lili's temper flared up as well, "You really want a divorce from me that badly?"
Instead, I felt wronged.
Lu Xiuwen found it somewhat amusing to see her on the verge of tears.
"You were the one who said you wanted a divorce. Otherwise, if you and Hao Hao come back together, we can go back to how things were before!"
"Dream on!" Yu Lili felt inexplicably pleased, but her words were very firm.
Just then, Qi Wei, wearing slippers, limped over, wanting to get breakfast.
Upon seeing him, Lu Xiuwen immediately got up and walked towards him.
In just a few seconds, a dozen burly men inexplicably appeared behind him.
"Boss Qi, settle our wages now," Lu Xiuwen said casually.
Qi Wei took a step back in fright and frowned, saying:
"Who are you? Why are you asking me for my wages?"
After handing over the renovation of his restaurant to Sister Wang, he went to take a look a couple of days ago. He was so busy thinking about how to sabotage Lu Wanqing that he didn't have time to think about it and had no idea how far the renovation had progressed.
"Boss Qi, it's all written in black and white here. You entrusted the restaurant renovation to Wang Meili, and she has the right to subcontract it. She has already subcontracted the project to me. I, along with a dozen brothers, have been working day and night, and the renovation is almost finished. The total cost for the materials and labor is 18,000 yuan. Please settle the payment."
Lu Xiuwen delivered his prepared speech in a calm and unhurried manner.
Qi Wei was almost scared to death. Wasn't it supposed to be five thousand yuan? How did it turn into eighteen thousand?
"You're trying to extort me! I'm going to sue you!" Faced with a dozen or so burly men, he had no choice but to turn to the police.
Lu Xiuwen, however, was not afraid at all and said:
"You signed this contract yourself, so even if you take it to the Emperor, it won't do you any good. Pay up now, or I'll have your hands and feet ripped off."
This was the first time Yu Lili had seen Lu Xiuwen so ruthless, and she felt a mix of emotions.
Standing next to Qi Wei, he suddenly seemed much taller.
People are just like that, they're so perverse. When Lu Xiuwen was so obedient to her, she thought he was a coward. Now that he's ruthless, she feels his charm.
On the contrary, Qi Wei, who had a few coins in his pocket, was no longer of any interest to her.
So, when Qi Wei obediently took out 18,000 yuan and gave it to Lu Xiuwen, she, who was watching the show from the sidelines, let out a cold laugh.
What a spineless coward, he even wants to pursue her!
Qi Wei didn't even notice her. After paying, he just told Lu Xiuwen to finish the renovation work quickly, or he would sue them again.
After Qi Wei left, Lu Xiuwen counted his money, took out a thousand yuan, and handed it to Yu Lili.
"I'll use this thousand yuan to buy some food and clothes for my son, and I'll have to return the rest to the company."
Yu Lili didn't want to accept it, but seeing his sincere expression, she had no choice but to accept it and put it in her pocket.
"Um, tonight when you go to the park, I'll bring Hao Hao to meet you." She left with those words.
To his surprise, when Lu Xiuwen arrived at the park that evening, he didn't see Hao Hao, but instead saw Yu Lili, who was wearing a red dress and looked quite charming.
