After leaving her cousin's restaurant and walking around with Liu Qing, Sun Lifang suddenly realized that her previous judgment might not have been accurate.
Liu Qing is not stupid at all.
When dealing with people, it feels like there are two different people in front of you.
"What you think is just what you think." Sun Lifang recalled what Zhou Yunshi had told her, "Anyone who can make it big in these circles is a simple person."
The officialdom is full of cunning and shrewd individuals; none of them are simple-minded.
Even if Liu Qing is very capable, how could a junior like her rise above the seniors?
The secrets behind it are not to be told to outsiders.
Zhou Yunshi didn't explain it too clearly. He only told his wife to "figure it out carefully, otherwise it would be pointless for me to tell you."
It's not good to force growth, so Zhou Yunshi planned to let his wife participate in it herself and understand the rules.
Nothing fosters growth and leaves a lasting impression than genuine, heartfelt participation.
The same applies to judging people; Zhou Yunshi felt that his wife's "ability to judge people needs improvement."
In this respect, Zhao Chengguang is better than Sun Lifang. Zhou Yunshi reminded his wife, "Since you think Zhao Chengguang and Liu Qing are on the same level, then the reverse is true—"
"Given Zhao Chengguang's experience, would he marry an innocent young girl?"
No, they are equally experienced in terms of cunning and scheming.
However, Sun Lifang remained skeptical about this, because of Liu Qing—
"You're always so emotional in front of me, you never give me a chance to see your other side?"
Yes, Liu Qing doesn't have many friends. It's true that she's emotional in front of Sun Lifang, but outside, even if her emotions are churning inside, she always remains calm on the surface.
"Take her forcing her sister-in-law away as an example. You see her making a scene in front of you, getting really angry, but what about in front of her parents and brothers?"
Officials always know how to advance and retreat appropriately. Before Guo Zhimeng got into trouble, Liu Qing never cared about Lu Pingping's little tricks behind the scenes.
"This is called focusing on the big picture and letting go of the small details. Treat your sister-in-law extremely well to establish an initial impression."
It's okay to suffer a little grievance, but the key point is that Liu Baiyang and the two elders of the Liu family have seen this.
“Don’t dwell on small things. Let them accumulate and ferment until everyone knows that Liu Qing has been wronged. Even if her sister-in-law does nothing afterward, Liu Qing’s image will be established.”
Lu Pingping couldn't just do nothing. She didn't understand anything and thought her sister-in-law was easy to bully, a bully who preyed on the weak and feared the strong.
Little did he know, this was precisely the "moat" that Liu Qing had built for himself.
Protect yourself; I will not offend others unless they offend me.
"With such an unreasonable sister-in-law, whose parents would Liu Qing feel more sorry for?"
That goes without saying.
Furthermore, "Have you noticed that Liu Qing's approach to handling matters is to persuade people with reason?"
This is the most worthwhile thing to learn: "Look how she treats her sister-in-law well as soon as she comes in, how she is considerate during holidays, and how she always buys the same things for the children."
What she did was flawless.
"So later on, even if Liu Baiyang still loved Lu Pingping very much, he would have to rethink his marriage when faced with a major event like Guo Zhimeng."
Those involved are often confused, while bystanders see things clearly. Being on a different level, ordinary people simply cannot understand Liu Qing's actions.
Zhou Yunshi's words were like a wake-up call: "Don't be foolish and follow Liu Qing's emotions. She's much smarter than you."
Wanting to do something and doing it are two different things. Some people are angry in words, but the operator still performs smoothly and flawlessly, leaving no room for criticism.
Focus on the big picture and let go of the small details; persuade with reason; play dumb to outsmart others; combine these three approaches.
Even if Lu Pingping divorces Liu Baiyang later, she can't blame Liu Qing.
Everything is predetermined from the beginning; those who excel in officialdom will not leave any loopholes for others to exploit.
Want to say, "My sister-in-law bullied me and caused my marriage to break down, leading to divorce?"
Don't even think about it!
Liu Qing had already made the necessary preparations.
She did nothing but push things along.
Let Liu Baiyang think about the fate of his marriage on his own, and let Lu Pingping deal with the mess on her own.
Finally, "He deserves to suffer the consequences of his own actions."
Zhou Yunshi had already seen through Liu Qing's actions, but he found it amusing. "My wife is so silly, she gets all emotionally swayed by others, and I'm so angry."
When he heard that Liu Qing was going to come back and beat someone up, he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
It's strangely cute.
However, how could Sun Lifang know her best friend's way of dealing with people?
"Simply won't do."
This was Zhou Yunshi's assessment of his wife, thinking to himself: Let her go and hit a brick wall herself before we talk about it.
They won't turn back until they hit a brick wall, and they won't give up until they reach the Yellow River.
With Liu Qing's cunning, "You don't need to worry about anything."
Food isn't eaten for nothing, and age isn't lived for nothing—
If you can't even see this clearly, how can you be a high-ranking leader?
"Liu Qing wanted to relax, and he'll be handling a big case when he gets back."
Sun Lifang recalled the words her husband had spoken to her before they parted.
How could a shrewd woman be trapped by a trivial marriage?
There was something else troubling Liu Qing.
What's up?
Sun Lifang looked at the woman outside chatting with the guide and felt a sense of awe.
Slowly lift it up, then gently put it down.
Based on Liu Qing's previous actions, it can be inferred that Liu Qing must have known that Manager Guo was a suspect long ago. Her silence was because she was waiting for an opportunity to eliminate him in one fell swoop without leaving any room for doubt.
People in officialdom are far more tactful than one might imagine.
You must be absolutely certain that everything is in order and that you are completely innocent before you can take action.
Given the complex relationships, if it were Sun Lifang, she would probably only think of providing evidence to expose Manager Guo, bringing herself into the public eye and making herself the target of criticism.
