Chapter 15: Chapter 15

After placing the evidence carefully, Song Guanchao turned on his computer and opened the Organizational Department’s website.

He quickly found the pre-appointment announcement of Secretary Wu.

"Wu Qiangwei, 29 years old..."

"Wow, not even thirty and already sitting in this position?"

Seeing the other party’s age, Song Guanchao clicked his tongue in amazement.

So young.

And really beautiful!

On the pre-appointment announcement’s ID photo, Wu Qiangwei was dressed in a business suit and shirt, her long hair impeccable, she hadn’t even put on makeup.

The ID photo is like a magic mirror, able to make the ID picture feel like a glamour shot; that shows just how good Secretary Wu’s foundation is.

In his heart, Song Guanchao pondered that this Secretary Wu had an extraordinary background.

Generally speaking, women are at a natural disadvantage in the officialdom.

Moreover, Secretary Wu was still unmarried, which was a further negative.

The position she held now was a height that many could not reach in their entire lives.

Such a beautiful woman, able to serve as a full-time Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Committee at the age of 29, must have a very powerful backing!

Song Guanchao couldn’t help worrying a bit whether his self-recommendation could even catch her eye.

But he just thought about it and didn’t get overly fixated.

Whether it was going to work or not, he would know by tomorrow, there was no need to worry unnecessarily.

The next day.

Six in the morning.

Song Guanchao rode his motorcycle early in the morning to wait outside the gates of the City Committee compound.

Ordinary people couldn’t even dream of meeting the City Secretary, even meeting a county head was as hard as scaling the heavens.

Song Guanchao had limited means; if he wanted to see Secretary Wu, he had to resort to this simplest method of waiting for the rabbit.

At six-thirty.

He saw a young woman wearing shorts and a moisture-wicking shirt, with her hair tied in a ponytail, jogging in running shoes inside the compound.

Song Guanchao’s eyes suddenly lit up.

He had seen Wu Qiangwei’s pre-appointment announcement last night, and recognized at a glance that the jogger was indeed Secretary Wu!

He didn’t expect Secretary Wu to have the good habit of morning runs.

And her figure was really something.

She was almost one meter seventy, the sweat-soaked shirt clung to her body, outlining her exquisite curves that looked picturesque from afar.

As she ran, the muscle lines on her thighs were clearly visible, a beauty full of vitality.

With her long hair tied back in a ponytail, her face was clean, her features captivating.

He quickly glanced behind Wu Qiangwei and saw she was alone.

A perfect chance for contact!

He approached the gate, and the armed gatekeeper immediately looked at him.

Song Guanchao didn’t go in; he just stood outside and called out loudly to the jogging Wu Qiangwei, "Secretary Wu!"

Wu Qiangwei slowed down and looked towards the gate.

She changed direction and walked towards the gate.

"Who are you?" As she approached, Song Guanchao could see her even more clearly.

Wu Qiangwei’s cheeks were flushed from exercise, her skin incredibly delicate and seemingly breakable to the touch.

Song Guanchao reined in his admiring gaze, looked outside the gate, and said gravely, "Secretary Wu, I am Li Fuhai’s driver, I have work to report to you."

Wu Qiangwei’s gaze fluctuated, "You’re Song Guanchao?"

Song Guanchao was surprised, "Secretary Wu knows me?"

Wu Qiangwei said, "Li Fuhai’s case was handled by me."

So that was it.

However, making an impression on a Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Committee was a good thing.

But, Wu Qiangwei turned serious in the next second and asked, "What work do you have that requires bypassing the hierarchy to report to me?"

Song Guanchao tensed up.

He was well aware that some leaders extremely disliked being bypassed in reporting.

After all, so-called bypass reporting is essentially whistleblowing.

A person who likes to whistleblow is not favored by many leaders.

But Song Guanchao had already taken this step and couldn’t be bothered to consider these consequences.

"Secretary Wu..."

"Go to the City Government Office to make your report; if the office can’t resolve it, call the police."

Wu Qiangwei interrupted him, turned around, and walked away.

Song Guanchao frowned, somewhat confused and puzzled.

On her first day in office, she had dismissed a Vice Mayor.

Logically, she wasn’t afraid of offending people.

But she, a mere driver for the municipal government, had come to report to her, and yet she interrupted herself as if she did not want to get involved in the troubles of the municipal government.

But if she truly wished to avoid involvement, she should not have dismissed Li Fuhai yesterday.

This was too abnormal.

Song Guanchao returned to his motorcycle and did not leave.

He had already taken the step and could not turn back.

But now, Secretary Wu’s attitude was so indifferent, not giving him any chance to report.

This letter of intent simply could not be submitted!

"No!"

Song Guanchao suddenly looked up.

Secretary Wu was not someone who feared trouble, otherwise, she would not have dismissed Li Fuhai on her very first day in office.

Moreover, considering her swift and decisive style, she would certainly not mind bypassing the usual channels for reporting.

After all, she was only 29 years old.

Her thinking was never that rigid.

"The reason she rejected me... must be that the timing was wrong!"

"Yes, that’s it!"

"I shouldn’t have looked for her in the City Committee compound!"

"With so many people and prying eyes around, it wouldn’t look good, especially since she just took office."

Song Guanchao immediately saw the light.

He waited patiently.

At 7:30 a.m.

Wu Qiangwei changed into her professional attire and headed to the City Committee Office.

A beautiful woman is hard to disguise, even in a sack.

The well-tailored black trousers, white shirt, and ladies’ blazer added to her maturity and stability.

The aura of a superior leader she exuded made others feel inferior.

But Song Guanchao couldn’t take his eyes off her. She was truly beautiful, with a great temperament, igniting within him an impulse to conquer her.

He watched her enter the City Committee Building before he stopped.

At 9 o’clock, he received a call from Qian Xuefeng, the director of the municipal government office.

"Xiao Song, where is Li Fuhai’s official car?"

"It’s taken to the repair shop."

"Isn’t it fixed yet?"

"It should be ready. I’ll drive it back soon."

"Remember to hand over the car key."

"I know."

Song Guanchao didn’t ask the other party how his work should be arranged next.

It was expected that someone like him, a peripheral character, would not be used.

If he had no ambitions, just receiving his monthly salary was, in fact, a rather pleasant thing.

He went to the repair shop, fetched the car, and after returning and handing over the keys, he returned to the City Committee.

All afternoon, he did not see Wu Qiangwei.

Not until around 6 p.m. did he finally see Wu Qiangwei come out and go directly back to the committee’s compound.

Still, no chance for contact.

But, Song Guanchao was not in a hurry.

He had participated in a few military exercises before, infiltrating the enemy’s command when his side was at an absolute disadvantage.

When everyone thought the dust had settled and all was determined, he single-handedly captured the enemy commander and turned the tide against all odds!

Afterward, when someone asked him for advice, he said only two words— "Patience!"

Keep patient and wait for the opportunity to come.

Then, seize the opportunity!

Now, what Song Guanchao needed to do was just that—patiently wait.

Wait for that opportunity that might emerge!

At 7:30 p.m., Song Guanchao saw Wu Qiangwei, dressed casually, walking out of the committee’s compound.

He knew, the opportunity had arrived!

He didn’t rush to approach her immediately but followed Wu Qiangwei until he saw her enter a nearby large supermarket.

Song Guanchao immediately followed her in.

Wu Qiangwei stopped in the meat section, picking out beef.

Song Guanchao stepped forward boldly, without any concealment, and said, "Secretary Wu."

Wu Qiangwei glanced up, saw Song Guanchao, and her eyes suddenly turned cold, "You’re following me!"

Before Song Guanchao could explain, Wu Qiangwei said coldly, "Following a member of the City Committee, Song Guanchao, do you know what that is? I could call the police and have you arrested right now!"

Hearing these words, Song Guanchao’s eyes flickered, and he suddenly smiled, "Secretary Wu, if I’m not mistaken, you intentionally gave me this opportunity to see you, didn’t you?"
