“Little sister, Gao Yu Liang has returned. Are you ready?”
Listening to Gao Qiang’s voice on the phone,
Gao Qi Lan only felt a sense of unfamiliarity.
After a moment of stunned silence,
she replied,
“Brother, I’m almost ready.”
“Good. Gao Yu Liang rushed back from Jingzhou in such a hurry because there’s a yearly integrity meeting for entrepreneurs and legal officials in Jinghai tomorrow.”
“There’ll be a reception after the meeting.”
“Usually, our Qiang Sheng Group doesn’t attend, but this time, for your second brother, we have to go. Xiao Lan, just listen to the arrangements then.”
“I’ll have someone pick you up tomorrow.”
Gao Qiang said over the phone.
“No need, brother. I’ll drive myself tomorrow.”
Gao Qi Lan declined.
There was silence on the other end for a few seconds,
before a deep voice said,
“Xiao Lan, brother is sorry.”
“嘟嘟嘟……”
The phone hung up.
Only then did Gao Qi Lan collapse onto the bed in a state of despair.
Her delicate face was now covered in tears.
…………
After returning to Jinghai, Gao Yu Liang summoned the mid-level and above officials of the Jinghai legal system for a meeting.
He made relevant arrangements for the next day’s routine integrity meeting.
After ensuring everything was in order,
Gao Yu Liang announced the meeting adjourned.
However, there was a small mishap during the meeting.
One of the officials, who was only in his early thirties, gave a speech. His appearance and mental state,
compared to Gao Yu Liang sitting in the middle,
seemed to have their ages reversed!
This prompted the other officials to tease Gao Yu Liang, saying that he must have some secret to his youthful appearance.
…………
The next day.
Representatives from all major businesses in Jinghai came to attend the integrity meeting.
Especially those with some shady dealings, they wanted to use this meeting to gauge Gao Yu Liang’s stance.
Gao Qiang’s car was parked outside, waiting patiently for his sister, Gao Qi Lan’s arrival.
…………
“Hong Jian Yong, Hong Xuan, Tian Jing Cheng, Hong Zheng, Jia Long Wan Tai Tian, Chong Hong Long Shao Yong.”
“Zhu Yuan Zhang, Zhu Yun Wen, Zhu Di…”
“Who was the emperor after that? ”
Meanwhile, Gao Qi Lan was reciting the order and names of the Ming dynasty emperors while driving.
She hadn’t gotten much sleep in days and, because of her hazy state, she ran a red light!
She almost collided with a car turning left from the opposite direction!
“Ah!”
Gao Qi Lan screamed in fright.
Cold sweat poured down her body.
Without further thought, she continued to drive toward her destination.
Ten minutes later,
Gao Qi Lan arrived.
“Xiao Lan, you’re finally here.”
Upon seeing Gao Qi Lan’s car, Gao Qiang immediately rushed over to greet her.
However,
when he saw Gao Qi Lan get out of the car wearing casual clothes, he was stunned!
In this state,
it would be difficult to guarantee that Gao Yu Liang would approve of his sister!
“Don’t worry, brother. I brought a change of clothes. I’ll change before the reception.”
Gao Qi Lan said, biting her lip.
“It’s alright, it’s alright. Let’s go in,” Gao Qiang said awkwardly.
He then escorted Gao Qi Lan into the meeting hall.
Most of the people were already gathered in the hall.
As soon as Gao Qiang stepped in,
the lively meeting hall suddenly fell silent!
In the past,
no matter where Gao Qiang went, people would gather around him!
It was unprecedented for the scene to fall silent upon his entrance!
But, after all, the influential figures in Jinghai now understood that
Qiang Sheng Group was being closely watched by the government and the new secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, Gao Yu Liang.
Therefore, no one dared to be associated with Gao Qiang, the CEO of Qiang Sheng Group, at this moment!
Naturally, Gao Qiang had no interest in dealing with these people at this time.
He pulled Gao Qi Lan along
and found a secluded corner to sit.
After waiting another ten minutes.
Gao Yu Liang stepped onto the stage amid thunderous applause.
“The meeting will now commence.”
Gao Yu Liang got straight to the point, without any unnecessary preamble.
The entire meeting focused on the importance of ensuring that economic development was legal and compliant.
Both entrepreneurs and officials must adhere to their responsibilities and strictly follow laws and regulations.
“At the same time, our Zhan Feng Action Team also welcomes social supervision and reports from the public.”
“I hope that at this critical moment, everyone can do their part and supervise others. Let’s work together to create a Jinghai with a transparent political atmosphere!”
Gao Yu Liang said at the end of the meeting.
“啪啪啪啪!”
The entire meeting hall erupted in thunderous applause!
After the meeting, the reception officially began.
As the host of the meeting, the top official of the Jinghai legal system.
Gao Yu Liang naturally became the center of attention for everyone.
Entrepreneurs, driven by either gratitude or ill intentions, rushed to toast Gao Yu Liang.
Gao Yu Liang accepted them all.
On the one hand, he knew he needed to gather more information about Qiang Sheng Group’s crimes, and these business owners must have some.
On the other hand,
it turned out that his physical enhancement had improved his overall quality!
His alcohol tolerance was no exception. Gao Yu Liang, who could already drink well in the past, now possessed an almost unyielding capacity for alcohol!
He drank a group of entrepreneurs under the table!
They all gave Gao Yu Liang a thumbs up!
“Xiao Lan, I’ll go first. You go change your clothes.”
Gao Qiang said to Gao Qi Lan, seeing that the timing was right.
Gao Qi Lan’s eyes flickered with fear, but she still nodded.
She then got up and left.
Gao Qiang, holding his wine glass, walked over to Gao Yu Liang.
When the other entrepreneurs saw Gao Qiang approaching, they instinctively made way for him.
“Secretary Gao, let me have a toast with you.”
Gao Qiang raised his glass and clinked it with Gao Yu Liang’s.
He then drank it down in one gulp.
Gao Yu Liang smiled and took a small sip.
The two of them looked at each other.
Just as others were speculating what kind of spark would fly between the two,
they suddenly heard a gasp!
Everyone turned to look.
Instantly, they were all stunned!
There,
Gao Qi Lan walked over wearing a custom-made cheongsam.
The cheongsam was a pale blue, and its smooth fabric shimmered in the light. The light and the folds of the cheongsam created an unusual sense of beauty.
Coupled with the curves that became incredibly alluring as she walked, accentuated by the tight-fitting garment.
Her long, straight black hair cascaded over her shoulders.
Adding to her delicate features, her high nose bridge adorned with a pair of seductive gold-rimmed glasses.
Everyone couldn’t help but swallow.
Even Gao Yu Liang was slightly taken aback!
