Chapter 104: Chapter 104, TV dramas wouldn’t dare show such melodramatic plots

Xu Wendong felt utterly embarrassed, having been sprayed with juice all over his face, making him really uncomfortable.

”Sorry, sorry,” Xu Fan hurriedly picked up the napkin in front of her, stood up, and wiped the juice off Xu Wendong’s face.

But because they were sitting face to face, and she was wearing a camisole inside, the moment she bent over, her ample chest was fully revealed to Xu Wendong.

The sight of that soft, heaving fullness deeply stimulated Xu Wendong’s eyes.

Seeing Xu Wendong staring fixedly at her chest, a blush instantly rose on Xu Fan’s face, and she teased, ”You little rascal, what are you looking at? Wipe it yourself.” With that, she tossed the napkin toward Xu Wendong.

”I’ll go wash my face first,” Xu Wendong said with an awkward yet polite smile, internally cursing himself for lacking self-control.

However, he couldn’t be entirely blamed.

He practiced the Dragon and Phoenix Creation Technique, which was a kind of Dual Cultivation Technique.

And women were precisely his Achilles’ heel.

After washing his face and coming back, Xu Fan had almost finished eating. She looked at Xu Wendong and said, ”Can you really tell if a person’s health is okay just by their facial features?”

”What else?” Xu Wendong shrugged with a confident smile.

Having come this far, Xu Fan didn’t bother to pretend anymore. She sighed lightly, ”My transfer to the broadcasting station does have something to do with the news report this morning, but now there’s no point in talking about it.”

Xu Wendong said softly, ”I can help you get back to your previous position.”

Xu Fan replied helplessly, ”I appreciate your good intentions, but this matter is complicated and beyond the station manager’s control.”

Xu Wendong: ”So, does Oulan Company have connections to the broadcasting bureau?”

Xu Fan: ”Our station manager’s position at the bureau isn’t low either, and even he can’t decide on this matter. How strong do you think their background is?”

After a pause, she asked, ”Has your company’s high-end cream been approved by the Food and Drug Administration?”

Xu Wendong replied truthfully, ”We’re still applying.”

”Didn’t... you put it on the market without getting approval? Isn’t that too bold of you?” Xu Fan showed an incredulous look.

Xu Wendong gave a bitter smile, ”We didn’t put the high-end cream on the market; it was limited to Wish members and sold in a limited capacity. Also, before the sale, we submitted the product inspection report to the Food and Drug Administration. Who would’ve thought Oulan would stir up trouble at such a critical juncture?”

Xu Fan said dismissively, ”If Oulan seizes this point and doesn’t let go, you’ll definitely suffer a big loss.”

Xu Wendong nodded, acknowledging that it was indeed a significant loophole that needed quick resolution.

Xu Fan glanced at the watch on her wrist and said, ”It’s getting late. How about we leave it at that for today?”

”Alright,” Xu Wendong didn’t say much, but as for Xu Fan’s job, he was sure he’d help her get back to her original position since he owed her that.

Outside KFC, they exchanged contact information. Just as Xu Fan was about to drive away, Xu Wendong called out to her, ”Sister Fan, um, could you possibly give me a ride back to Happiness Community?”

???

In the driver’s seat, Xu Fan had a look of shock. It was the first time in her life she heard a guy asking a girl to drive him home.

Such a clichéd request would be too much even for a TV drama!

Xu Wendong awkwardly laughed, ”I’m just thinking it’s late at night, and it’s not convenient to get a cab back...”

”Alright, hop in,” Xu Fan didn’t refuse Xu Wendong’s request, even though it seemed somewhat impolite to her, but she quite liked this way of interaction.

He spent an unforgettable night with Wu Mei.

The next day, Xu Wendong arrived at the hospital before eight to start his morning work.

Since he didn’t have to see patients, he was actually quite free.

But his brother wasn’t idle, caught up in a love-hate relationship with Ding Yao, making her plead for mercy repeatedly, even calling him hubby and godfather.

As lunchtime approached, he received a call from Deng Wencheng, and since it was already time to eat, he said, ”Director Deng, how about I treat you to a meal, and we can talk in person!”

Deng Wencheng, a seasoned player, knew Xu Wendong must have a favor to ask; otherwise, he wouldn’t invite him to dinner without reason, so he politely asked, ”Do you need me to bring a few friends along?”

”Ahem, are you familiar with the leadership at the Food and Drug Administration?” Xu Wendong’s face turned red; having his intentions seen through felt really awkward.

Deng Wencheng laughed, ”Of course, very familiar!”

Xu Wendong said, ”Alright, then I’ll leave it to you.”

Deng Wencheng replied, ”In that case, come to Sai Jiangnan, and when you arrive, give them my name.”

After a brief exchange, Xu Wendong hung up the phone, informed Ding Yao he was going out to eat, and then took a cab to Sai Jiangnan. It was a high-end restaurant in Qingyuan, and after giving Deng Wencheng’s name, he was led to a small private room.

In the room, besides Deng Wencheng, there was a middle-aged man in his forties, who was having a pleasant conversation with Deng Wencheng at that time.

Seeing Xu Wendong enter, both men stood to greet him. Deng Wencheng introduced, ”Wendong, this is Director Kong Yuan from Qingyuan Food and Drug Administration.”

Kong Yuan warmly extended both hands, a slightly flattering smile on his face, ”I’ve heard Director Deng mention Mister Xu’s accomplishments before. It’s truly my honor to meet you today.”

Even though Xu Wendong was young, he was a guest of Secretary Li, which alone warranted some respect.

”Director Kong, you’re too kind,” Xu Wendong said, shaking his hand briefly, then getting straight to the point, ”The reason I asked Director Deng to invite you out is mainly to seek a favor.”

Deng Wencheng laughed, ”Let’s sit down and chat!”

Once the three of them were seated, Xu Wendong said, ”Director Kong, here’s the thing: I’ve partnered with Wish Beauty Company to develop a product called High-end Cream. There are no issues with the product quality, and we’ve delivered samples along with the quality inspection report issued by the hospital to the Food and Drug Administration.”

”But I’ve heard it takes up to half a month to get a quality inspection report from our end, so I’m wondering if you could let us cut in line and get the report from the Food and Drug Administration as soon as possible?”

Kong Yuan was momentarily dazed.

You asked Director Deng to arrange a dinner just for this small matter?

Did this really need to be so ceremonious?

Couldn’t you have just called me to get it done?

Despite his thoughts, he sensed Xu Wendong’s respect for him. It was out of respect that Xu Wendong invited him, so without further thought, he immediately said, ”Mister Xu, since the bureau is already off work, I’ll personally go back and issue you the quality inspection report!”

”Our Food and Drug Administration is just across the street; I’ll be right back.” With that, he left the room at a trot.

Watching his retreating figure, Xu Wendong fell into contemplation, casually requesting someone’s help, but Director Kong actually made a personal trip after hours to issue a quality inspection report for him. Was this the benefit of having influence?
