Although Tang Jiu drank quite a lot today, she definitely didn't drink too much. After returning to Xu Yun's suite, she complained that she wanted to take a shower. After all, she was a girl. She didn't like the smell of cigarettes and alcohol, so she lay on the bed. Xu Yun brewed a pot of tea and sat on the sofa to watch TV. After about an hour, Tang Jiu walked out with a towel wrapped around her body and her wet hair.
"Can we be more reserved and wear more clothes? I drank so much. Aren't you afraid that I can't control myself?" Xu Yun joked. "Don't treat me like a man."
Tang Jiu snorted. "If I didn't understand you, I wouldn't go back to your room with you. Even if you have the heart, you don't have the guts. Even if you have the guts, you can't cross your own bottom line. So, you're just a … Forget it, I'm too lazy to talk about you. If you dare, I'll lose my chastity long ago. "
Xu Yun was speechless. He was completely speechless. "Fine, you have a sharp tongue. You really don't take me seriously. "
"Didn't I say that we're brothers? We're magnets," Tang Jiu said. "As for me, I was a little interested in you in the past. But later, I realized that we're not suitable for each other. It's more suitable to be brothers."
No wonder. When Xu Yun saw Tang Jiu this time, he felt that Tang Jiu wasn't as shy as before. She was more like the Tang Jiu he first met. It seemed that she had seen through some things and understood some things.
This was good. For Xu Yun and for her, it was a good relief. After all, that kind of indescribable feeling was the most confusing. Xu Yun finally didn't have to worry and be afraid of hurting Tang Jiu's feelings.
"With your words, I really should drink with you more today," Xu Yun said.
"If I drink more, I'm afraid that I won't be able to control myself. What if I burn with desire at night and do something to you? Wouldn't it be too easy for you?" Tang Jiu smiled beautifully. "If you want to drink, open another bottle of red wine and drink. I'm not drinking with you anyway."
"It's boring to drink alone." Xu Yun shook his head.
Tang Jiu lay down on the bed and stretched comfortably. "You sleep on the sofa and I'll sleep on the bed. Don't snore at night, or I'll stuff your mouth with socks."
"Sure, I promise I won't even be out of breath," Xu Yun said.
Tang Jiu sat cross-legged on the bed and said to Xu Yun, "Who was that big brother tonight? You must be a gangster, right? He seems to be someone of high status. "
Xu Yun nodded. "Not bad. I'm quite popular on the Guqin Island."
"Then what do you mean?" Tang Jiu said, "This … I think, whether it's you and me going for a drink or you and him going for a drink, it's better if we go alone. You brought me along and called him over. What's the meaning of this? Introduce me to that big brother? "
Xu Yun smiled. He couldn't tell that Tang Jiu was still thinking about this matter. "Then, do you think that's what I meant?"
"Who knows what kind of ideas you have in your head?" Tang Jiu shook his head. "But you didn't formally introduce me to him. I don't want to talk to you. Seeing that we had a good time drinking tonight, I won't argue with you. "
Xu Yun: "As long as you're happy. Don't think too much about other things. As for you guys, it's enough that you're familiar with each other. "
"What are you up to?" Tang Jiu couldn't see through him at all.
"You don't need to know. You just need to rest well tonight and prepare the materials needed for the bidding. You're more professional than me in this aspect, so I won't say much." Xu Yun: "You're already on the Guqin Island, which means the bidding is about to start. I know very well that when your assistants and secretaries arrive, it'll be a real battle."
Tang Jiu stuck out his tongue. "You're smart. I came early to attend to some small business. Then … I'll stay here for the rest of the day."
At this moment, Xu Yun's phone rang. It was Lin Ge. "Brother, I saw Tang Jiu's car in the hotel's parking lot. You guys are back?"
"Yeah, we're back. Come on up," Xu Yun said.
"No, I don't want to go up. It's inconvenient. You can come down. I'll go home after talking to you. Fang Ya is waiting for me at home, "Lin Ge said.
Xu Yun looked at Tang Jiu wrapped in a towel and sitting cross-legged on the bed. It was indeed inconvenient. He couldn't stand the image. "Wait for me."
"Who is it? It's so late," Tang Jiu said.
"Pigeon. He wants to talk to me about something. I'll go downstairs for a while," Xu Yun said.
Tang Jiu wanted to ask him to come up, but when he looked at his clothes, he didn't say anything. "Come back quickly. Take the time to shower and go to bed. Otherwise, you'll wake me up when I fall asleep."
"Okay, got it." After saying that, Xu Yun stood up and left.
Xu Yunhui arranged for Tang Jiu and Shi Lei to meet face to face, that was all with a purpose. After learning about the competition for affordable housing, Xu Yun realized that Yang Zhen would definitely use Shi Lei to get close to Deputy Director Shi. He immediately asked Lin Ge to investigate Deputy Director Shi.
In the end, Lin Ge came back with an answer that surprised Xu Yun. He said that Deputy Director Shi was definitely a model of "serving the people!" He had always been honest and upright. After being an official for so many years, he was still empty-handed. He was strict and strict with his subordinates!
Such an upright person would definitely not be moved by sugar-coated bullets. After knowing this, Xu Yun was relieved. He believed that even if Yang Zhen used Shi Lei, it would be difficult for him to move Deputy Director Shi. As long as Deputy Director Shi, who was in charge of the bidding, was fair, Xu Yun was relieved.
However, Xu Yun thought of another problem. In order to get the villa for him, Shi Lei must have felt guilty towards Yang Zhen. If Yang Zhen used this favor to ask for his help, Shi Lei wouldn't be able to refuse.
However, Xu Yun couldn't ask Shi Lei not to help Yang Zhen. That would make it seem like he was burning the bridge after crossing the river. Moreover, the one who was in trouble was Shi Lei, not Yang Zhen.
In the end, Xu Yun thought of a way to let Shi Lei know Tang Jiu. This way, if Yang Zhen couldn't get help from Deputy Director Shi, he would definitely ask Shi Lei to help. Shi Lei was a gangster, and his methods were definitely not honorable. If he wanted to do something to the Tang Corporation, he would know Tang Jiu's relationship with him and naturally know what to do. He wouldn't make things difficult for Tang Jiu.
This was Xu Yun's goal.
However, in order to confirm that Deputy Director Shi was an honest and upright person who served the people, Xu Yun asked Lin Ge to bring all kinds of "gifts" and disguise them as real estate agents to pay a visit. In the end, Lin Ge waited at 5: 30 PM at the Housing Bureau, wanting to follow Deputy Director Shi to his house to "give gifts".
Unexpectedly, Deputy Director Shi was very busy because of the affordable housing matter. Everyone in the unit had left work, but Deputy Director Shi was still working overtime until 10: 30 PM. He didn't even eat before leaving the unit.
Only then did Lin Ge have the opportunity to follow Deputy Director Shi all the way to his house.
When Lin Ge knocked on the door with a grand gift and explained his intentions, he was immediately met with a harsh door slamming in his face! Not only did Deputy Director Shi not accept the gifts, he didn't even invite him in!
Instead, he gave Lin Ge a harsh lesson at the door, saying that it was because of people like him that the integrity of the Party and Government was destroyed! He also told him that with his crooked thinking, the affordable housing he built would also be "crooked"! Therefore, he definitely wouldn't consider his company.
Fortunately, Lin Ge just casually made up a company name and didn't harm anyone.
After Lin Ge was scolded by Deputy Director Shi, he brought the gifts back and reported to Xu Yun dejectedly. With such an honest and upright official, hehe, the bidding for the affordable housing will definitely be fair and just!
After hearing Lin Ge's words, Xu Yun was relieved. He could only help Tang Jiu with this much. The rest would depend on the strength of the Tang Corporation. If there was a better choice than the Tang Corporation, Xu Yun wouldn't feel sorry for Tang Jiu. After all, the affordable housing was for the benefit of the common people. Therefore, all the interests of the common people had to be considered!
