77: Chapter 77 Picking up President Zhou

Su Yao brought out Zhou Wanqing to save the situation, and it really had a very good effect.

If Qin Jiazheng were to be promoted one more step, he would reach the hall level, and might even potentially become a vice mayor. He was already an existence that many people could only look up to.

But Zhou Wanqing was still someone he wanted to curry favor with.

There was no other reason; the system was just that realistic.

Perhaps, even more realistic than reality itself.

Only Qin Ben remained somewhat dismissive. He was used to being sought after at school.

He thought the Zhou Wanqing that Su Yao mentioned was at best a minor leader she had a good relationship with.

So, Qin Ben took the initiative to say to Su Yao: "Oh, Yaoyao, what's with all this 'sister' stuff? Let me tell you, none of that is useful at work."

"The most useful thing is to have a strong backer. You didn't understand my dad's meaning; if you go to the Public Security Bureau, he will definitely take care of you."

Getting carried away, Qin Ben straightened his back: "What does that Sister Wanqing of yours count for? Do you really think that just because you call her 'sister', she can give you anything?"

Su Yao was speechless. This Qin Ben looked well-read, but in reality, he was the same as those brainless second-generation rich kids. He didn't understand the basic principle that saying too much leads to mistakes.

Seeing the situation was going south, Su Jianzhong hurriedly picked up food, pretending not to hear.

Wang Pei wanted to chime in, but Su Jianzhong quickly stuffed a chicken leg into her mouth.

Qin Ben wanted to continue his grand speech, but heard his father suddenly slap the table!

Qin Jiazheng scolded: "You brat! Don't embarrass me here! When it's not the time for you to show off, don't talk nonsense!"

Then, Qin Jiazheng turned to Su Yao with a smile: "Yaoyao, don't listen to this brat. Some things today are meant to be said behind closed doors. Don't let outsiders know!"

"I admire your President Zhou very much. Please, if you have the chance, you must convey this for me."

Su Yao was polite: "Don't worry, Director Qin, I will."

Qin Ben still felt wronged. Even if she was a big leader in Su Yao's unit, she was just a vice-department level official, barely the same rank as his father.

His own dad held real power, so why did he value a minor leader of Su Yao's so much?

But seeing his father's fierce gaze again, he immediately became a bit more well-behaved.

And it was precisely because of Qin Ben's brainless words that the Qin family, which originally held the initiative, had to lower their stance.

It finally allowed Su Yao to be safe and sound, avoiding today's crisis.

The family of three from the Su family hailed a taxi home.

Su Jianzhong and Wang Pei sat in the back row, and he tentatively asked: "Yaoyao, you have a pretty good relationship with your President Zhou?"

Su Yao sat in the front, her voice flat: "It's alright. At work, I respectfully call her 'leader'. In private, calling her 'sister' is fine too."

"But just now, I really didn't like them belittling my unit!"

Upon hearing this, Su Jianzhong was slightly surprised. But inwardly, he felt a trace of relief. His well-behaved daughter had grown up.

But Wang Pei was still refuting her daughter's words: "Your unit isn't good. To put it bluntly, it's just a state-owned enterprise. How can it compare to the establishment of the public security system?"

Su Yao's body clearly heaved, and she replied: "Mom, if I said your unit, Qianjiang University, wasn't good! Would you be comfortable?"

Wang Pei: "Isn't that your alma mater too!?"

Seeing mother and daughter about to argue, Su Jianzhong immediately stopped them: "Alright, alright, both of you say less. Yaoyao, work hard and fully support your President Zhou's work."

As soon as Su Yao got home, she locked herself in her room.

Qin Ben, not to mention anything else, was far worse than Su Nange just in terms of conduct.

Although Su Nange didn't have a serious tone, he knew very well what should and shouldn't be said. Wit and humor are not brainless comedy.

It is a manifestation of extremely high emotional intelligence.

Just then, Su Yao's phone rang; it was her direct department leader calling.

Su Yao quickly answered: "Director Zhao, you're looking for me?"

Director Zhao's tone was a bit urgent: "Little Su, I see that President Zhou is going to drink too much tonight. I was wondering if you could arrange a car in advance to come and pick up President Zhou."

Su Yao???

I'm just a small staff member.

Plus, company car dispatch management is strict now; where could I find one in the middle of the night?

However, Su Yao had a second thought. The bid opening is the day after tomorrow. Why not take this opportunity?

Su Yao immediately replied: "Director Zhao, I had a little to drink tonight, but don't worry, I will find someone to come and pick up President Zhou immediately. President Zhou knows this person."

Director Zhao: "Good, thank you for your hard work. I'll send you the location."

So, Su Yao immediately dialed Su Nange's phone.

"Hello, if you had called me any later~"

"You would have been asleep?"

"Batman is about to go out to save the world."

No matter how good Su Yao's temper was, she couldn't help but want to curse~~

"Fine, then now, please, Comrade Batman, help this young lady save the world once, okay?"

"Gladly at your service, madam!"

"I'll send you a location. I had a drink tonight. Please, work hard and go pick up President Zhou. Director Zhao said she's dealing with bank people tonight and might have had too much to drink."

"You go, okay?"

Su Nange smiled: "Okay, I understand your intention. You are so kind!"

"Hehe, then go quickly and perform well."

Su Nange hung up the phone and sighed.

Su Yao simply wanted him to take this opportunity to make a good impression on President Zhou. It would be beneficial for the day after tomorrow's bid.

However, this girl... President Zhou is not a simple person.

Sometimes, not doing something is better than doing it.

However, since Su Yao ordered it, Su Nange would definitely listen; he couldn't let his good girl be embarrassed, could he?

So, Su Nange put on his coat, went downstairs, started the car, and drove off with a roar.

Fortunately, Su Nange arrived early and saw a woman around 50 years old, holding onto a noble beauty who looked a bit tipsy, walking out.

Seeing Su Nange, she greeted him: "Hehe, it's the other Little Su who has come."

"Hello, Director Zhao. It's me. I'm a young man, so I have a lot of strength."

Su Nange was sunny and handsome, with a tall and sturdy build—the type these women liked the most.

Plus, since they knew each other from the same unit before, there was nothing to worry about.

Su Nange helped Director Zhao support Zhou Wanqing together.

Zhou Wanqing glanced at Su Nange but said nothing. Her face was flushed with a hint of white, obviously having drunk a lot, and she felt uncomfortable in the wind.

Su Nange took the initiative: "Director Zhao, let me do it. Let's get President Zhou into the car as soon as possible!"

Director Zhao nodded: "Oh my, these people from the bank syndicate just don't know when to stop when they start drinking."

"They have a high tolerance, and President Zhou is really risking her life for the group's development. It's really heartbreaking."

Su Nange secretly laughed in his heart: You old woman, you speak nicely, but why didn't you block the drinks for President Zhou?

Su Nange put Zhou Wanqing in the back seat and then said goodbye to Director Zhao: "Don't worry, Director Zhao. Su Yao has already instructed me. You should go back early too!"

"Good, then Little Su, thank you for your hard work!"

Su Nange sat in the driver's seat, and when he turned his head, he was startled, thinking she had come back to life.

This woman behind him was actually scrolling on her phone; it turned out she wasn't that drunk?

However, he suddenly thought of a saying: officials are all actors. This big sister comes from a top-tier performing arts family, so she must have depth.

Su Nange adjusted the navigation, started the car, and then drove out slowly.

However, if Zhou Wanqing were really drunk and started sleeping, that would be fine.

Su Nange knew she was sober, so he felt the atmosphere in the car was really awkward.

He opened the refrigerator under the armrest and took out a bottle of juice that had been prepared and heated.

Then he pressed the boss key of this executive sedan.

The front passenger seat was folded, and the rear seat space was expanded directly to a very comfortable state.

Su Nange handed over the drink: "President Zhou, drink some of this to quench your thirst."

Zhou Wanqing took it, but still didn't speak.

Su Nange cursed in his heart: Are you mute?! Why act so cold!

Zhou Wanqing continued to scroll on her phone; this was her daily habit. She tried to read through some current affairs news of the day.

It wasn't that she was deliberately ignoring Su Nange.

Su Nange simply inserted a CD and played "Autumn Leaves".

The Mark Levinson audio system lived up to its reputation as a divine artifact, directly creating a deep autumn scene of a slanting sunset and golden leaves covering the ground with this famous piano piece.

Su Nange's eternal opening move: "What does President Zhou like to listen to? I'll change it."

Zhou Wanqing finally spoke: "No need, this is quite good!"

Su Nange??? What are you acting like a lady for!

Seeing that Zhou Wanqing finally put down her phone, Su Nange said: "President Zhou, don't blame Su Yao. I didn't come to score any impression points."

Zhou Wanqing's tone was calm: "You're overthinking it."

"That's good."

You act cold, I'll act cold too, damn it.

However, Zhou Wanqing suddenly added: "I drank too much alcohol tonight and didn't eat enough. Do you have any recommendations?"

Su Nange??? What are you acting like a young lady for?

"I know a place, it's not bad."

So, the luxurious and elegant executive sedan changed its route on the elevated road and drove towards the university town of Qiantang City.
