Ma Yingjie's face turned pale. He just followed the Young Master Tian's words and didn't expect the Young Master Tian to make an issue out of it. He didn't know how to respond. Fortunately, Situ Lan helped him out in time. "Brother Tian, don't be suspicious. This young man is very serious. Plus, we all have dreams when we are young. Which of us didn't have dreams when we were young? Plus, he came to Beijing to find someone. He put in a lot of effort to find that person. But Beijing is so big. Finding someone is like finding a needle in a haystack. Of course, for Brother Tian, finding someone is a piece of cake. For us, it's as difficult as reaching the sky. "
"Is that so?" The Young Master Tian stared at Ma Yingjie with a smile. His gaze was somewhat ambiguous. Ma Yingjie quickly said, "Yes, I feel pressured. Giving up halfway is not the result I want."
"Good!" The Young Master Tian said excitedly. He used an excited voice and said, "Just like what Sister Lan said, finding someone is a piece of cake for me. I will definitely get involved in this matter."
"Thank you, Young Master Tian." Ma Yingjie quickly thanked the Young Master Tian politely.
"No need to thank me. I'm nothing. At most, I'm just a bug on the streets of Beijing. But, Brother Ma, I still have to say one more thing. Finding someone is a small matter. Once you find him, try to be lenient. Being an official is a head, but this matter of conscience is something that has no head. "
"Young Master Tian is right. I will remember your words. It will be my motto in the future." Ma Yingjie nodded nervously. Why does this person have so many lessons?
"Brother Ma, you're too serious. Alright, since we're done eating, let's go. I wish Brother Ma all the best in your career. "
The Young Master Tian left without giving Ma Yingjie a chance to be polite. As soon as he finished speaking, two bodyguards helped him up. Ma Yingjie wanted to politely send him downstairs, but the Young Master Tian said, "Wait, I know the way." His words made Ma Yingjie blush again. After the Young Master Tian entered the elevator and returned to the private room, Situ Lan punched Ma Yingjie hard. "Are you stupid? Have you never seen the world or what? You're a disgrace to me."
"Did I embarrass myself?" Ma Yingjie asked deliberately.
"You know whether I lost it or not. Do you think that Young Master Tian is an ordinary person? His power is astonishing. Not to mention a small matter like yours, even if he were to topple a provincial governor, it would be a piece of cake. "Situ Lan looked at Ma Yingjie with disappointment. However, Ma Yingjie felt strange. In Beijing, there were people that Situ Lan was afraid of, and there were also people that Situ Lan was convinced by.
"I can see that Beijing is full of such people. Otherwise, why is it called Beijing?" Ma Yingjie said unhappily to Situ Lan.
"Don't be jealous. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have used this relationship. Now, I owe a big favor. It's not easy to return this favor, you know? " Situ Lan looked at Ma Yingjie with dissatisfaction. She was always helping him, but he seemed to take it for granted.
Ma Yingjie then became serious. Yes, his problem might be solved, but how could Situ Lan return this favor?
"I'm sorry, Sister Lan." Ma Yingjie quickly apologized to Situ Lan. If he really made this lady unhappy and gave him the cold shoulder for a few days, how was he going to explain to his boss?
"Go away. Everyone knows how to be sweet. You'd better take some action." Situ Lan seemed to be in a good mood today. She kept joking with Ma Yingjie. Ma Yingjie didn't know how to continue Situ Lan's words, but she said, "In the future, when you meet this kind of people, you have to be more careful. What do you mean by letting their bodyguards sit? What do you mean by being an official is tiring? If you say anything wrong, you will lose everything. This group of masters is hard to serve. Besides, people like them come and go unpredictably. They are very mysterious and legendary. Don't act dumb in front of these people. They will laugh at you. "
Ma Yingjie looked at Situ Lan in a daze. He had heard of this circle before and had heard about its mysteriousness. However, he had never experienced how powerful this circle was and how many taboos there were. Today was the first lesson. Thinking about the path that Situ Lan had been through all these years, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. This kind of circle was not something that could be entered easily! It seemed that Ma Yingjie really didn't know how much power Situ Lan had.
"What's wrong? You haven't seen it before?" Seeing Ma Yingjie's strange gaze, Situ Lan asked.
"No, no. Let's go back. It's getting late." Ma Yingjie suppressed the many questions and thoughts that were surging in his mind. Life was an unsolvable question. Different people took different steps on the road of life. Sometimes, you couldn't say who was right and who was wrong. You couldn't judge which path had a higher price according to your logic. People had their reasons for being willing to pay the price. In short, life wasn't a simple arithmetic question. It wasn't like what the textbooks said either. Life was actually a word. Only when all kinds of spellings were mixed together would people feel that the world was so lively, so noisy and so unbelievable.
The two of them walked out of the private room. When Situ Lan was about to pay the bill, Ma Yingjie said, "Let me pay. Didn't we agree that I would come?"
Situ Lan smiled gently and looked at Ma Yingjie. "You dare to pay the bill at such a place with that little money of yours? Save some money." Ma Yingjie didn't dare to argue anymore. He was really afraid of making a fool of himself. He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to afford those dishes that he had never seen before.
Ma Yingjie waited for Situ Lan to finish swiping his card. When he walked out, he couldn't help but ask, "How much is this meal?"
Situ Lan smiled and said, "Guess."
Ma Yingjie guessed ten thousand times. Situ Lan laughed. "You're a country bumpkin. Do you think I'm a beggar? Don't you know what kind of place this is? Let's go. Don't ask anymore. It's not your money anyway, and you won't be reimbursed. "
Ma Yingjie was completely speechless. According to Situ Lan's expression, this meal was definitely expensive. But he really didn't eat anything. He only cared about looking at the novelty. It seemed that he was really a country bumpkin. But when they came out, Ma Yingjie still asked Situ Lan worriedly, "When will there be news about Qiu Dandan?"
When Ma Yingjie was asking Situ Lan, Situ Lan's cell phone rang. Situ Lan picked it up and saw it was from Young Master Tian. Situ Lan smiled and said, "Hello, Brother Tian. Have you arrived home?"
"Sister Lan, I've checked what you asked me to do. This person is not in Beijing anymore. She was sent out of Beijing the day before yesterday. I don't know where Zhi Ru is." Young Master Tian said so on the phone. Situ Lan thanked Young Master Tian and looked at Ma Yingjie. Ma Yingjie felt that it was another bad news from Situ Lan's expression.
Sure enough, after Situ Lan hung up the phone, she said to Ma Yingjie, "Qiu Dandan was sent out of Beijing the day before yesterday. It seems that they have done it long ago."
Another hope was shattered. Ma Yingjie stared at Situ Lan. He didn't know what to say or what to do next. He stood there blankly until Situ Lan said, "Go get the car." Ma Yingjie woke up and walked to the parking lot with a heavy heart.
As soon as Ma Yingjie sat in the car, his cell phone rang. Ma Yingjie took it out and saw it was a strange number, but he still picked it up. A woman's cry came through the phone, "Secretary General Ma, come and save me."
Qiu Dandan? Ma Yingjie's first reaction was to ask, "Are you Qiu Dandan? Where are you? What happened? "But there was a beeping sound from the other end of the phone.
"What's wrong?" Situ Lan rushed to the parking lot and asked Ma Yingjie. Ma Yingjie was dialing the strange number. It was actually from the Great Northwest, and it was a public phone. Ma Yingjie was puzzled. Was Qiu Dandan teasing him, or did something really go wrong?
"Qiu Dandan called and asked me to save her. But it was a public phone, and why is she in the Great Northwest? "Ma Yingjie seemed to be talking to Situ Lan, but it also seemed like he was talking to himself.
"Great Northwest?" Situ Lan answered. She was also a little uncertain. Why would this girl go to the Great Northwest?
Ma Yingjie couldn't make up his mind, so he called Qiu Jianping. Once the call was connected, Qiu Jianping asked, "Secretary General Ma, have you found my daughter?"
"Secretary Qiu, do you have any relatives in the Great Northwest?" Ma Yingjie asked. During this process, Situ Lan kept looking at Ma Yingjie. She didn't speak, but in the darkness, her eyes were shining. To Ma Yingjie, this light was so bright that he didn't dare to look at it.
"She went to the Great Northwest? This girl is crazy. Why would she go to the Great Northwest? I don't have any relatives in the Great Northwest. "Qiu Jianping was anxious on the phone, and when he was anxious, he spoke incoherently.
"Secretary Qiu, you have to tell me the truth now. Who is Qiu Dandan in contact with? She used a public phone to call for help, but I can't be sure. Is she lying to me again? She said she was in Beijing, but I went to Beijing and couldn't find her for a few days. Now, she says she's in the Great Northwest and wants me to save her. Who exactly did she get involved with? You have to say something to me. "Ma Yingjie was also anxious, and his voice was a little loud. Situ Lan tugged at Ma Yingjie in the dark, signaling him not to be so impulsive. Moreover, Ma Yingjie's eagerness and impulsiveness made Situ Lan a little uncomfortable. What if the other party wasn't a girl? Moreover, it was a very good-looking girl. Situ Lan had already seen Qiu Dandan's information. She was still a little uncomfortable with Ma Yingjie's excessive concern. Even though it was impossible for her and Ma Yingjie to be together again, she still hoped that she could live in Ma Yingjie's heart. She still hoped that this little man's feelings for her were focused. Besides, wasn't it just a little girl? How big of a wave could she make? Wasn't this pair of masters making a mountain out of a molehill?
Situ Lan wanted to say something, but she couldn't help it. Regarding Wu Du's matter, she also knew that she definitely didn't know as much as Luo Tianyun and Ma Yingjie. Therefore, she had to suppress her own discomfort and let Ma Yingjie make the phone call.
