"This is..." Li Qiang looked at the note Haitang handed him and said with a surprised look on his face.
Haitang said angrily: "Didn't you ask me to find a few more places suitable for rebuilding the Shanghai Station headquarters and contact points? Well, they are all here!"
"So you dragged me here..."
"Of course it's for the evening dress! As for this note, it's just to pick up the goods on the way." Haitang said with some duplicity.
Li Qiang saw through it without saying anything, and put the note away with a smile.
Although it is not clear whether the efficiency of this store is so high in the first place or whether money plays a decisive role, it only took more than an hour for the clerk to come up with five or six design sketches of evening gowns with astonishing efficiency.
For two people to choose from.
Although this efficiency is amazing enough, after the two of them chose the dress style, it was already 2:30 in the afternoon.
"Okay, I know you're in a hurry, so hurry up and leave! I'll just go back by myself!" Haitang looked at Li Qiang, who looked down at his watch from time to time, angrily and funny, and finally couldn't help but relented.
"How about I take you back first?"
"Then aren't you late? Okay, let's go!"
After hearing this, Li Qiang rushed out of the clothing store as if he had been granted amnesty, jumped on a rickshaw and immediately urged the driver to rush towards the destination.
While Li Qiang was still rushing to meet Li Ningyu, Gu Xiaomeng also knocked on the door of Gu Minzhang's study.
"Dad, you called me?"
When Gu Minzhang saw Gu Xiaomeng come in, he immediately put down the newspaper in his hand, "Here you come, Xiaomeng. Sit down!"
After Gu Xiaomeng sat down, Gu Minzhang continued: "Xiaomeng, you have been working under Section Chief Ming for a while. How is it? Is there anything you are not used to at work?"
"It's nothing that I'm not used to." Gu Xiaomeng replied truthfully, "It's my boss..."
"Oh?" Gu Minzhang couldn't help but raise his eyebrows after hearing this, "You mean that Li Ningyu? I heard that she is a recognized genius in deciphering!"
Gu Xiaomeng curled her lips, "It's true that she is a genius, but in my opinion, she is like an iceberg in Antarctica. No grass grows, no color, and she is so cold that no one in the unit dares to approach her.
.Sometimes, she sits in the office for a whole day, and often goes for several days without saying a word, eating silence as food. She looks cold and indifferent to me all day long, except for work.
Other than socializing, he never had any other dealings with me, which left me a little helpless..."
The more Gu Xiaomeng talked, the more enthusiastic she became, and she didn't even notice the flash of smile on Gu Minzhang's face...
At the same time, in an inconspicuous cafe in the French Concession.
"Sorry, Sister Yu, I'm late." Li Qiang, sweating profusely, ran to Li Ningyu, who had been sitting in the cafe waiting for a long time, and said with an apologetic look.
Li Ningyu coughed a few times, then shook her head and said: "It's only five minutes and twenty-six seconds late, it doesn't matter."
With that said, he handed a cup of coffee to Li Qiang, "Here, your coffee is a little cold, but it's just a punishment for being late."
"Sister Yu, you are still so... well, you have clear grievances!"
Li Ningyu didn't want to but smiled, "You want to say that you must retaliate, right? Yes, that's the kind of person I am, and it's not the first day you've known me!"
After saying that, he took out a pen from his pocket and started drawing on the newspaper.
When Li Qiang saw this, he couldn't help but said: "Sister Yu, I didn't expect that after so many years, your habit has not changed!"
"I just don't want my brain to be idle." Li Ningyu replied calmly.
"Okay, Sister Yu, let's not talk about this, let's talk about Gu Xiaomeng! After getting along with her during this time, what do you think of her?"
"She is like Nanjing's Purple Mountain, which has been turned into a park. It's very lively, and everyone is surrounding her. On weekdays, it's like her butt is greased. She can't sit still in the office. She wanders around and follows people.
Chatting, bickering, flirting, nothing serious."
"No way?" Li Qiang couldn't help but frowned after hearing this, "After all, she is also the daughter of a rich family. Even if she has been spoiled since childhood, she will not..."
However, before Li Qiang finished speaking, Li Ningyu took the initiative to take over the conversation and said with determination: "Because of this, I came to the conclusion that she was deliberately pretending to be numb.
People around me. Moreover, I can tell you clearly that in terms of professional ability alone, I am probably better than her only in the past few years of work experience."
Although Li Ningyu added a lot of restrictive conditions when evaluating Gu Xiaomeng, it was already a very high evaluation for her.
Li Qiang had no doubt about this, "It's not impossible to say that. After all, a person's nature cannot be hidden. It's better to let it go than to hide it! Coupled with her special status, she can take advantage of her young age and
With the conditions of a backer, I pretended to be a child from a rich family who was ignorant of worldly affairs and cynical."
"That's right, that's why she behaves unruly in the workplace and dares to speak in a pornographic tone. In this way, she creates a heartless impression. For women, she takes them to the streets to spend money.
, watch movies, buy clothes, go to restaurants, and take photos in photo studios; for men, the reverse is true, letting them take her to the streets to spend money. There are so many ways!"
"So, she did this to you too?"
"Well, and if my feeling is correct, I should be the main target of her closeness. For example, she will come to me when she buys new clothes and ask for my opinion on whether the style and color are suitable; and then at work.
She often came to me for advice on certain matters. She clearly knew how to translate a telegram, but deliberately pretended not to know and asked me for advice. In short, she used various methods to get close to me and cultivate a personal relationship. Although she seemed to have no ill intentions, I was very worried.
I hate such purposeful contact, so I have always been very indifferent to her. Just yesterday, she invited colleagues from the general practice to have a big dinner at her home, but I didn't agree. But I heard that Vice President Gu not only
We treated them to a feast and gave everyone gifts." Li Ningyu said, but her hands continued to draw.
"You are doing the right thing. You should be alert enough to such inexplicable closeness." Li Qiang touched his chin and said thoughtfully, "Although this is not a long-term solution, fortunately
Soon, she will go to Nanjing to study."
"Nanjing? It seems that Gu Minzhang is determined to put his daughter in a key department!" Li Ningyu said keenly after hearing this.
"Yes, there are too many mysteries surrounding these two father and daughter, but fortunately they have not yet posed a real threat to us."
However, before he finished speaking, Li Ningyu suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Do you think they might be members of the military commander?"
"It's hard to say, but what is certain is that the relationship between him and Haitang, my partner in the military command, is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface."
On the way back, Li Qiang sat on the rickshaw, holding tightly the newspaper that Li Ningyu had given him before parting in his right hand, and fell into a deep tangle.
Because the seemingly random graffiti on the newspaper actually hid a set of passwords. When translated, it was a shocking news: the Central Government plans to impose severe sanctions on Minglou!
In just one paragraph, several questions were raised in Li Qiang's mind: Why did the Central Command suddenly attack Minglou? Is it because of the internal strife between the Military Command and the Central Command, or is there something else hidden? In addition, if the intelligence
If true, who will execute it? Will it be Wang Manchun? Or...
Li Qiang returned to the Ming Mansion with extremely complicated emotions.
"Brother A Qiang, you're back! I've already prepared the meal. Wash your hands and eat!" As soon as he entered the door, A Xiang came out and said.
Li Qiang responded and asked casually, "Axiang, is eldest brother here?"
"No." Axiang shook her head and said, "The young master just answered a phone call and then hurried out."
"Going out?" Li Qiang became nervous after hearing this, "Where are you going?"
"It should be back to the government office!"
Before he finished speaking, Li Qiang immediately ran to the phone and dialed a phone number, "Hello, Tielin? Help me ask if my elder brother is in the office?"
There was not much time, and after receiving a positive reply, Li Qiang breathed a sigh of relief, and then immediately ordered: "Listen, from now on, ask your people to secretly protect my brother around the clock, and report any abnormalities immediately to the police."
I report!"
However, two days passed like this, but nothing happened. Everything seemed to be calm.
But the more this happened, the more intense Li Qiang's inner uneasiness became. This kind of suffering was extremely uncomfortable.
But although this incident gave Li Qiang a headache, it did not affect his original plan.
That evening, just as night fell, Li Qiang arrived at Paramount and walked straight into the private room he had reserved in advance.
In the private room, there were already people sitting there, pouring and drinking.
"Director Wang is so excited!" Li Qiang slowly walked to sit opposite Wang Tianfeng and joked.
Wang Tianfeng didn't even raise his eyelids, "Stop talking nonsense, why did you ask me to come?"
"Nothing, I just want you to be my scapegoat."
As soon as these words came out, Wang Tianfeng laughed angrily, "You really dare to say anything! Why do you call me your scapegoat?"
"Once my plan succeeds, you will gain Li Shiqun's absolute trust. How about it? Do you want to take a gamble?"
"What if it fails?" Wang Tianfeng asked.
"Then you can only admit defeat and be an unjust ghost!"
"You get all the benefits of joint venture, but I bear all the risks alone, right? Tsk tsk tsk, the God of Wealth is the God of Wealth. This is such a good plan!"
"Hey!" Li Qiang waved his hand quickly, "You can't say that! You have been the director of the Academic Affairs Office for a while. You said to yourself, when will the second half of the 'Dead Time' plan be implemented if this continues?
?To tell you the truth, there are already a lot of rumors in Chongqing, saying that you have probably been corrupted by Wang Jingwei’s high-ranking officials, and you are short of committing treason!"
It's a good thing that Wang Tianfeng didn't listen to this. When Li Qiang said this, he immediately became angry, "You bastard! Tell me honestly, who is stirring up trouble in front of Boss Dai and slandering my innocence?"
"Do I even need to say this? Of course it's your good brother Zhao Lijun! I've heard that he has always held a grudge against you for reporting him for killing innocent people indiscriminately, so he said it in front of Boss Dai whenever he had the chance.
Your bad words. Although Boss Dai doesn't express any words on the surface, he can't help but keep talking about it in his ears every day. As time goes by... you know."
"This third child! I thought of our sworn vows and let him go, but that guy turned against me in every possible way! If I had known, I should have shot him ruthlessly!" Wang Tianfeng said bitterly.
"Director Wang, this is all in the past. It's useless to say anything now. To tell you the truth, even if you really reject my proposal, I have plenty of ways to stay out of it. I just want to see what we can do."
Because we have fought side by side, I plan to take the opportunity to do a favor and get in touch with Boss Dai's suspicion of you."
"Huh! So, I have to thank you?" Wang Tianfeng said angrily.
"No need to thank you. As long as you can withstand the punishment of No. 76, then my plan will be half successful. How about it?"
Before he finished speaking, Wang Tianfeng stretched out his palm towards Li Qiang without saying a word and said unceremoniously: "Fifty thousand!"
"What?"
"Fifty thousand oceans, not even a penny less!"
"Fifty thousand yuan? Are you robbing? Besides, why do you need so much money?"
"Stop talking nonsense! Do you want to give it to me?"
"You! Okay, okay, I'll give it! After the thing is done, 50,000 yuan will be given to you naturally. Is this okay?"
"When it's done? Then it'll be sixty thousand!"
"Okay! Sixty thousand is sixty thousand!" Li Qiang almost endured the pain and gritted his teeth and agreed to Wang Tianfeng's conditions.
After coming out of the box, Li Qiang did not leave immediately. Instead, he put on a mask and went to the underground black market of Paramount.
Dim lights, high and low music, and crowds of all kinds, everything is what a black market should look like.
However, just when Li Qiang was about to find a place to sit down, he suddenly heard a familiar voice, so he immediately followed it and saw that although the owner of the voice was also wearing a mask, to be fair, his voice was also
It wasn't anything special, but the way he spoke made Li Qiang recognize his identity immediately.
"Alas! I'm telling you, do you, you, any of you have any exciting or breaking news? If you do, tell me, tell me the price, the price, the price, I will definitely guarantee your satisfaction!"
Before he finished speaking, Li Qiang's voice suddenly sounded behind him, startling the man immediately, "Long time no see, Mr. Xie. Do you still remember me?"
