Chapter 603: Chapter 602, I Like Abalone

The moment the idea occurred,

Liu Shimei’s heart started beating much faster.

Because besides this possibility, she couldn’t find any other reason why Xu Wendong would transfer so much money to her.

She put the vacuum cleaner aside, then sat on the sofa opposite Xu Wendong, and asked, ”What kind of fruit do you usually like to eat?”

Xu Wendong thought for a moment, ”Grapes and peaches.”

He liked grapes on a woman’s body.

And he liked peach-shaped bottoms.

He just wasn’t sure if Liu Shimei understood his thoughts with such straightforwardness.

Liu Shimei clearly didn’t catch Xu Wendong’s thoughts, and continued, ”What kind of meat do you like? I saw you ate quite a bit of fish and shrimp in the evening, do you like seafood too?”

Xu Wendong: ”As for seafood... I like abalone the most, and then oysters, sea cucumbers, things like that!”

Liu Shimei lowered her head, jotting down everything Xu Wendong liked to eat, which made Xu Wendong roll his eyes, feeling this woman was a bit too naive.

Oh my.

Grapes, peaches, abalone.

That’s such vivid terminology, how could you not get it?

Although a little eager to take Liu Shimei down immediately, Xu Wendong didn’t rush and always remembered the three rules of a jerk, don’t take the initiative, don’t refuse, don’t be responsible.

That was his bottom line!

He couldn’t back down no matter the time or place.

”Sis, what do you think about Brother Zhang’s work situation? Does our office have a suitable position for him?” Xu Wendong changed the subject.

Liu Shimei: ”It doesn’t seem like there’s a suitable position in our office.”

Xu Wendong nodded slightly, ”Alright, I’ll keep an eye out, and if there’s a suitable position, I’ll consider him first.”

”Thank you, Wendong,” Liu Shimei expressed her gratitude sincerely, then said, ”It’s getting late; I’ll go back first. You should get some early rest!”

Xu Wendong smiled and said, ”See you tomorrow!”

Liu Shimei got up to leave, but she felt a bit of reluctance in her heart.

If... Xu Wendong suggested staying a bit longer, she would have definitely agreed without hesitation.

But he didn’t say anything.

This left her a little disappointed,

thinking all her previous thoughts were just wishful thinking.

------

The next day.

After breakfast, Zhang Jin drove Xu Wendong and his wife out of the neighborhood, heading toward the city planning bureau.

”Good morning, Director Xu.”

”Good morning, Director Xu.”

After arriving at the office, many people greeted Xu Wendong, and he responded with a smile, then wandered into his office.

His work was quite leisurely, just drinking tea and reading the newspaper, like a sinecure.

Just as he finished brewing tea,

there was a knock on the door.

Xu Wendong: ”Come in!”

The office door opened, and Deng Changhai walked in with a smile.

”Oh, Director Deng, please sit down, please sit down!” Xu Wendong quickly stood up, inviting Deng Changhai to sit, and brewed him a cup of tea.

Deng Changhai sniffed and looked surprised, ”If I’m not mistaken, this should be Dahongpao from Wuyi Mountains, right?”

Xu Wendong laughed heartily, ”Director Deng, you have a keen eye; indeed, this tea is from the mother tree there.”

Deng Changhai smacked his lips, ”This stuff, ordinary people can’t drink it!”

He had been in the government system for many years and had some experience.

For instance, people who could drink Dahongpao from the mother tree of Wuyi Mountains were very few across Great Xia, even provincial and ministerial-level officers didn’t have such an amenity.

”An elder gave me some, if Director Deng likes it, you can take it to drink.” Xu Wendong answered ambiguously, then asked, ”Is there any work guidance for this visit, Director Deng?”

”You’re overstating things, Director Xu,” Deng Changhai chuckled, ”We’re not that busy with work here; I’m just here for idle chatter this time.”

After a pause, he said, ”I heard your car was splashed with feces outside yesterday?”

Xu Wendong shrugged helplessly, ”I don’t know why I’m so unlucky; I was just planning to buy some furniture at the furniture mall, and when I came out... don’t mention it, it’s too disgusting!”

Deng Changhai laughed and added, ”Oh, by the way, did you hear that Vice Mayor Wang took sick leave to rest at home?”

”I didn’t know!” Xu Wendong wasn’t lying.

He simply hadn’t heard about Vice Mayor Wang taking sick leave to rest at home.

After all, he had just started working yesterday and wasn’t familiar with the political scene in Haicheng.

Deng Changhai continued, ”Vice Mayor Wang has a nephew named Wang Ning, who works in our office’s planning department as a section chief. Before you got here, Vice Mayor Wang tried to secure this office for Wang Ning.”

Xu Wendong suddenly realized.

Deng Changhai went on, ”Your car was splashed with feces yesterday, and today Vice Mayor Wang took sick leave to rest at home. I think it’s too coincidental.”

Xu Wendong smiled, ”Maybe getting the car splashed was just a coincidence, clean it up, and it’s no big deal.”

He felt a bit sorry for Vice Mayor Wang.

After all,

Vice Mayor Wang took the blame for nothing...

Deng Changhai sipped the hot tea and then gave a thumbs up, ”This tea is really good!”

Xu Wendong generously took out half a box of Dahongpao from the drawer, ”If Director Deng likes it, take it!”

”In that case, I won’t be polite!” Deng Changhai took the tea with a smile and then stood up with the teacup, ”Actually, I just came by for a stroll, don’t have anything much, you carry on, I won’t disturb!”

Xu Wendong, ”Take care, Director Deng, feel free to come by for tea anytime!”

”Sure! No need to see me out!” Deng Changhai left Xu Wendong’s office with a teacup, a radiant smile on his face.

Although it was just a casual chat,

He got to know where Xu Wendong came from.

There must be a strong supporter behind him.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have gotten Dahongpao from the Wuyi Mountains’ mother tree.

Of course, this information was very useful to him, as it would dictate what attitude to adopt towards Xu Wendong.

Yes.

He had to give some proper power and make him happy so that once he achieved something, he could use this place as a springboard to enter the higher echelons of the government.

Knock, knock, knock!

Just as Xu Wendong sat down, there was a rather urgent knock on the door from outside.

Xu Wendong: ”Come in!”

The door opened, and a man in his thirties, wearing glasses, walked in. He wore a black suit and looked somewhat uneasy.

”Hello, Director Xu, my name is Wang Ning!” Wang Ning stood there nervously, appearing a bit lost.

”Is there something you need?” Xu Wendong asked casually, not expecting Vice Mayor Wang’s nephew to find him.

Bang!

Wang Ning knelt on the ground, tears glistening in his eyes, choked up, ”Director Xu, I know my uncle’s character, and I’m willing to bet my life on it; he would never let someone splash feces on your car. He’s innocent!”

Xu Wendong leaned back in his office chair and asked calmly, ”Whether he is wronged, what does that have to do with me?”
