141: Luo Qin personally visited her son-in-law's company for inspection.

Luo Qin and Gong Fangfang took the elevator together; Luo Qin had only just managed to calm her excited heart.

Gong Fangfang could only comfort her, saying, "The children are grown now and have their own thoughts. Some things still need to be guided slowly."

Luo Qin, however, felt wronged: "I did guide her! I talked to her many times, kindly and gently, telling her that finding a boyfriend affects her happiness for a lifetime and she can't act impulsively. You saw that boy just now, what's so good about him? A street loafer who didn't even finish junior high. How can I trust Gu Qingcheng to him?"

Gong Fangfang said, "Gu Qingcheng might just be inexperienced and was tricked by that guy. Don't look at those small-time ruffians who are idle all day; their specialty is deceiving innocent young girls who haven't seen much of the world."

"But our Gu Qingcheng is a police officer!" Luo Qin said, "A police officer being led around by a street loafer, isn't that shameful?"

"These things take time, don't rush," Gong Fangfang comforted her. "I'll have our Zhao Mingxuan spend more time with her. I think Gu Qingcheng and that boy are probably experiencing first love, so she has no experience. With a comparison, she'll know what's truly good."

Luo Qin grabbed Gong Fangfang's hand and said, "Fangfang, you have to make Zhao Mingxuan take this seriously. He can't lose to a street loafer!"

As they spoke, the two arrived at the floor where Zhao Mingxuan worked. Gong Fangfang had been to this place before, so she was quite familiar with it.

As soon as they exited the elevator, Gong Fangfang proudly introduced, "This entire floor belongs to Zhao Mingxuan's Company Name. There are hundreds of employees. The boss rarely comes, so Zhao Mingxuan is the one in charge here."

Led by Gong Fangfang, Luo Qin arrived at the reception desk in the lobby. Two girls in uniforms were busy working. Seeing Gong Fangfang and Luo Qin, one of the girls came forward to ask enthusiastically.

"Excuse me, Aunties, who are you looking for?"

Indeed, Company Name usually didn't have clients visiting, and these two Aunties couldn't possibly be company employees.

Gong Fangfang said proudly, "I am your General Manager Zhao's mother. Is my son here?"

"You're General Manager Zhao's mother?" The girl was surprised. "Yes, General Manager Zhao just arrived and is in his office! I'll take you there now."

Luo Qin looked around. The company's decor was very impressive, and it indeed looked like a very reputable financial company.

Thinking that her future son-in-law was a high-level executive at such a large company, Luo Qin was quite satisfied.

So, led by the young lady at the front desk, the two walked through a long corridor to Zhao Mingxuan's office.

As the three passed by a library separated by a glass wall, Luo Qin, as an intellectual, was surprised: "Your company even has a library?"

The young lady at the front desk smiled and said, "Yes, General Manager Zhao likes to read. Many of the books in this library were even bought by General Manager Zhao himself."

Gong Fangfang echoed, "Our Zhao Mingxuan, he has no other hobbies, he just loves to read."

"Very good, very good," Luo Qin nodded repeatedly. "Fangfang, you really raised a good son. Our Gu Qingcheng, when she comes home now, does nothing but play on her phone."

Gong Fangfang also smiled and said, "From now on, we'll be family, so isn't my son also your son?"

Luo Qin smiled at that.

"When it comes to raising children, I really have to learn from you. You were so busy in the United States, doing so well in your career, and still managed to raise your son to be successful. I wish I had learned more from you earlier!"

Speaking of her son's upbringing, Gong Fangfang was also full of pride: "You know, Zhao Mingxuan was mischievous when he was little, and I really put in a lot of effort to correct him. But the child also worked hard himself; he started to mature when he went to the United States and even got into a prestigious school like Harvard through his own efforts. To be honest, as a parent, I only pointed him in the right direction; Zhao Mingxuan's achievements today are all thanks to his own hard work."

"It's a pity, if only our Gu Qingcheng were half as sensible as him," Luo Qin sighed. "It's all my fault; I spoiled that girl too much."

As the two chatted, they arrived at an office door. Luo Qin looked up and saw a sign on the doorframe that read [General Manager's Office].

Gong Fangfang didn't hesitate and directly pushed open the office door.

But what they saw was Zhao Mingxuan sprawled on the sofa, playing a game on his phone with his legs crossed!

"Quadra Kill!"

The announcement of a quadra kill came from the game, leaving both Luo Qin and Gong Fangfang stunned, and the atmosphere became incredibly awkward.

Zhao Mingxuan suddenly saw the two figures at the doorway and was startled, especially seeing his future mother-in-law there.

He quickly dropped his phone and sat up from the sofa: "Mom, Auntie Luo, why are you here?"

Gong Fangfang had just been boasting that her son had no hobbies other than reading, but upon entering, he was playing Honor of Kings, which immediately made her feel a bit embarrassed.

To ease the awkwardness, she quickly said, "Auntie Luo and I had an appointment to get our hair done downstairs from your Company Name today. Auntie Luo heard you work here, so we came up to take a look."

"Quick, quick, please sit here, I'll make you some tea," Zhao Mingxuan enthusiastically invited, going to get the tea leaves.

"No need to go to such trouble, just a cup of water will do," Luo Qin said while looking around.

This office alone was fifty or sixty square meters, and the decor was very exquisite. Just the solid wood desk probably cost tens of thousands.

It really was no less impressive than the offices of those domineering CEOs on TV.

Luo Qin was also relieved; it seemed her best friend hadn't been bragging. The grandeur of this office indicated that the company was indeed very profitable.

There was a dedicated tea station by the window in the office. Zhao Mingxuan invited the two elders to sit down and specially brought out good tea to entertain them.

"Mom, why didn't you say something beforehand? I would have gone downstairs to pick you up!" Zhao Mingxuan said while making tea.

"We decided on a whim," Gong Fangfang said. "By the way, son, how's your Company Name's business lately?"

Zhao Mingxuan said, "It's going well. In October, our First War Zone's total performance was over eight million, and the profit should be around five or six million."

"That profitable?" Luo Qin was astonished. "Then, as a company leader, how much do you earn a month?"

Zhao Mingxuan paused: "I actually don't earn much, about close to 300,000."

"300,000?" This number was clearly higher than Luo Qin's expectation.

But as a university professor, she couldn't show an unworldly demeanor.

However, in her mind, Zhao Mingxuan's annual earnings were already equivalent to what her husband, who was a bureau chief, made in ten years.

So, she thought, officials who don't use their power are truly not as good as an employee.

"Your unit's efficiency is indeed good," Luo Qin said with a calm expression, but in her heart, she had completely accepted this son-in-law.

"But don't just focus on your career. When you have free time, communicate more with Gu Qingcheng, and take her to see movies or something."

"Understood," Gu Mingxuan nodded.

At the same time, after dropping off Gu Qingcheng, Lei Zhen returned to Xiexin Building.

The Huaxi Police Station had already mobilized fully, and over a thousand armed special police officers organized by the Municipal Bureau also began to march mightily towards Huaxi Wanda Plaza.

Downstairs, Lei Zhen and Zeng Ke met.

"You go up and work as usual. We will officially begin the arrest at ten o'clock. Report any situation immediately before then."
