Jiang Qing also turned his head and looked in the direction where Xiao Zheng was looking. He saw a young man in a white suit walking over slowly. He was followed by a young man and a young woman.
The three of them walked like the wind, and it was obvious that they were not ordinary people.
"Who is it?" Jiang Qing asked with a frown.
"You don't know him?" Xiao Zheng was surprised.
"I stay in the Long Formation all year round, so I don't know many people," Jiang Qing explained.
This was the truth. First of all, the Long Formation was highly confidential, and it would not be easily contacted by outsiders. Second of all, Jiang Qing was not good at socializing. Even if there was a chance, he would definitely refuse it. He would not join in the fun.
What's more, the person walking over slowly was not a member of the military, or a government official, or even a citizen of the capital. It was normal that Jiang Qing did not know him.
"Bai Wushuang," Xiao Zheng said with a smile.
"Bai Wushuang?" Jiang Qing was slightly startled, and then asked in confusion. "Bai Wuxia's nephew? The current helmsman of the Bai family? "
"Yes." Xiao Zheng nodded.
Look. He did not know the person, but he mentioned his name and background. Even though the Bai family was far away in White Town, it was still very famous. Especially Bai Wuxia, twenty years ago, he was simply a legend that everyone knew.
"What are they doing here?" Jiang Qing frowned.
The nature of this gathering was more official. And the address was the home of a ministerial-level big shot in the capital. Although the person involved did not attend. But those who dared to choose the address of the gathering here must be immediate family members.
The standard was very high, and the identity of the attendees was naturally not ordinary. To be able to hand the invitation to the hands of Department Head Gong, it must have used the power of this ministerial-level big shot. Of course, it was not easy to judge whether it was done in person or by the organizer.
At noon, Bai Wushuang said that he had something to do and had to leave first. This was probably the appointment.
To be able to make Bai Wushuang attach so much importance to this appointment, and even come half a day in advance to prepare, it seemed that Department Head Gong was really grateful to Xiao Zheng this time, giving him a very good opportunity.
However, Department Head Gong probably did not know that Bai Wushuang would come, nor did he know that he and Bai Wushuang were enemies.
"Oh. Isn't this Boss Xiao? "Bai Wushuang's eyes flashed coldly when he saw Xiao Zheng. But he still walked over with a smile.
The man and woman beside him, on the other hand, had strange smiles on their faces, as if they were watching a show.
Even if the relationship between the two was extremely bad, they still had to talk on the stage.
Even if the two of them had a terrible relationship in private, they still had to talk on the surface. Otherwise, if outsiders saw it, it would mean that they did not see the big picture. They would look down on them and even give up.
"Boss Li's I had to came. Young Master Li's plan, I have no choice but to come. "Bai Wushuang faintly smiled, but in his heart, he was secretly thinking: What is this Li Shikai doing? Isn't it enough to invite me? You also want to invite Xiao Zheng?
Not only did he invite me, he also invited Xiao Zheng? " He turned around and walked into the villa with Jiang Qing.
This villa was not very luxurious. In addition to the area being larger than Xiao Zheng's house, the workmanship was not even as good. Of course, in terms of location, it was not as good as Xiao Zheng's house.
But Xiao Zheng's house could be bought with money. But here, it was not the case. Just now, without an invitation, Xiao Zheng could not even enter the door.
Power and wealth, power and wealth, power and wealth were always in front of wealth.
The so-called high-standard party was not because the venue was big, but because the attendees were all famous. There were more than ten people, and the party was held in the hall on the first floor of the villa. Whether it was snacks or drinks, they were all ordinary. But as soon as Xiao Zheng entered the living room, he saw several familiar people.
"Oh. Isn't this Bai Wushuang? "Someone greeted Bai Wushuang.
"What a coincidence. You guys are here too. "Bai Wushuang faintly smiled, taking advantage of both sides.
On the other hand, although a few people recognized Xiao Zheng's identity, they didn't know who he was. But without exception, no one came forward. They even deliberately avoided his sight.
Of course, there were also people who were surprised by Xiao Zheng's appearance.
Half of the people present were officials and businessmen. They were all people of status and prestige. However, no matter if they were officials or business people, they didn't seem to be interested in Xiao Zheng, who had been on the news before.
Why?
Because they all knew very well that Xiao Zheng could be on the news, not because he was capable, but because the country needed to make a statement. It just so happened that he became the spokesperson. In other words, many people watched his live news to see the country's attitude, not his speech. This was like Lin Huayin watching financial news. Was she watching the host or the expert's explanation? No, she was also watching the country's policy. It was the general trend.
Perhaps to ordinary people, Xiao Zheng's appearance on News Simulcast was a huge hit. But at the level of people like Bai Wushuang, they could see the essence at a glance. They wouldn't take Xiao Zheng too seriously.
Jiang Qing saw that none of those people came up to greet Xiao Zheng, and she frowned slightly. She didn't understand.
Why?
She also saw it.
These people and Xiao Zheng didn't get along. Or simply, there was a conflict of interest.
Needless to say, Bai Wushuang. Some of the others came because of Bai Wushuang, and some because they were political enemies of the official forces behind Xiao Zheng.
Bai Wushuang and other people who could control the situation had expressed their position, so it was naturally inconvenient for the rest of the people to take the lead. They didn't please either side.
Of course, this was only the current attitude. In the final analysis, it all depended on how the party organizer, Li Shikai, treated Xiao Zheng.
If the son of the minister, whose grandfather once climbed to the Politburo but died last year, had an ambiguous attitude, Xiao Zheng's situation might have a chance to turn around.
Soon, Li Shikai came down from the corner of the stairs.
He was very young, probably about the same age as Bai Wushuang. He wasn't very handsome, but he had a feminine temperament. His words and deeds were very decent, but he had a very solid overseas background.
He graduated from Cambridge with a master's degree. He had studied abroad since he was a child. He rarely appeared in public. He had just returned to China this year.
With such a background, it was natural that Bai Wushuang was willing to attend and even valued this party.
Just the identity of the minister's son was enough for Bai Wushuang to make friends, not to mention a grandfather who was in the Politburo. Even if he died, his connections were still there, and it was very likely that most of them were inherited by his father. With such a background, it was no wonder that Minister Gong asked Xiao Zheng to attend in her place.
This was an opportunity for Xiao Zheng to make friends with the senior government officials.
But when Li Shikai slowly went downstairs, greeted Bai Wushuang and the others with a smile, and shook hands, his eyes finally fixed on Xiao Zheng's face.
In just an instant, Xiao Zheng saw the displeasure and even anger in his eyes!
This color only lasted for a few seconds, but it was enough for everyone present to see clearly.
The signal came out!
Li Shikai didn't like Xiao Zheng very much! Even disgust!
Although most of the people present couldn't understand why Li Shikai, who met Xiao Zheng for the first time, hated Xiao Zheng so much. But as long as there was an attitude, what they should do next would be easy.
Seeing this, Bai Wushuang sneered in his heart.
How about it?
Did you eat a loss? Do you really think that you are invincible just because you have Lin Huayin?
The complexity of the officialdom is not something that you can get unimpeded just because you know Jin Shuheng!
