Chapter 168: Chapter 168

The next morning.

Song Guanchao quietly got out of bed and grabbed his clothes to put them on.

He only realized after putting on his pants that Wu Qiangwei had told him to change into a different outfit today.

He opened the wardrobe and pulled on the brand-new suit.

When he arrived at the City Committee, some of the female colleagues who came to work saw him and their eyes lit up, whispering among themselves.

"Secretary Song looks so handsome today!"

"He looks really good in a suit."

"It’s mainly because he has a good figure."

"And he’s handsome too!"

Hearing these compliments, Song Guanchao felt somewhat elated.

After cleaning the office, Wu Qiangwei and Zeng Li came in.

Seeing Song Guanchao in a new suit, both women were stunned, as if they were seeing him for the first time.

Clothes make the man.

Different price ranges of suits have drastically different effects when worn.

His figure was good to start with, tall, and the straight trousers highlighted the advantages of his long legs perfectly.

Broad shoulders, thick back, narrow waist, his body was even more standard than a model’s.

"Secretary, good morning." Song Guanchao greeted.

Wu Qiangwei hummed a response, withdrew her gaze, but still couldn’t help but take a few more glances.

Upon leaving the office, Zeng Li said, "Why are you dressed so handsomely today?"

Song Guanchao smirked, "Am I not usually handsome?"

"Ugh, narcissist."

Zeng Li pinched him on the waist and pursed her lips, "Are you and Sister Weiwei going to a dinner tonight?"

"Mhm."

"When will you ever have time?"

"You’re asking me? Who am I supposed to ask?" Song Guanchao said. "By the way, didn’t your parents arrange some matchmaking dates for you?"

Zeng Li’s face suddenly cooled down, "Song Guanchao, are you so eager to push me onto other men? Do you really want to see me being pressed down by another man?"

Ugh...

The sudden vulgar language from the young girl caught Song Guanchao somewhat off guard.

"That’s not what I meant, I’m just concerned about you."

"I don’t need your concern!"

Zeng Li got angry again and held her phone, ignoring him.

The phone vibrated, Wu Yun sent a message.

"I want to eat barbecue for lunch."

Song Guanchao knew she had made some progress.

But, the last investigation he had asked her to do on Xu Xin and Wu Pinyan, Song Guanchao already knew about it.

Her efforts in this investigation were basically in vain.

"Okay, see you at noon."

Song Guanchao put down his phone and looked up to see Xu Xin coming towards him.

"Secretary Song." Xu Xin placed the documents down, and a flash of admiration passed through her eyes as she looked at Song Guanchao.

Setting aside her deliberate approach to Song Guanchao, Xu Xin actually thought that this secretary was a rare handsome man in the political field.

And not the slick and greasy type that made people uncomfortable, but a very manly and stylish man.

"Secretary Song is quite handsome today," Xu Xin sincerely said.

Beautiful women attract men, and handsome men attract beautiful women too.

"Thank you." Song Guanchao gave a reserved smile and picked up the documents to go to the office.

Delivering documents was a task that could be done by any junior clerk, but Xu Xin personally came every day.

At noon.

When Wu Yun saw Song Guanchao at the barbecue restaurant, her eyes were sparkling with bright light.

"Why do I feel like you’ve become more handsome today?"

Wu Yun stared at him, unable to shift her gaze.

"Really?" Song Guanchao smiled and said, "Let’s order first."

"You order, I’ll eat whatever." Wu Yun, infatuated, propped her chin up and stared at him.

After ordering, the waiter brought over plates of meat.

Song Guanchao took off his suit and carefully folded it and put it aside.

This thing cost over ten thousand for a set, he would genuinely be heartbroken if it got dirty.

Wu Yun, while eating the barbecue, said, "The two people you asked me to check on last time, that Wu Pinyan isn’t a local and is a contract worker, I couldn’t find out more."

Song Guanchao had anticipated this and asked, "What about Xu Xin?"

"Xu Xin’s file was easier to access, she was promoted by Mayor Zheng."

Song Guanchao listened quietly as she spoke, occasionally agreeing with a word or two.

After lunch, Song Guanchao paid the bill, and the two of them walked side by side along the tree-lined path.

"Have you got anyone else to investigate recently?"

"Not for now."

She wanted to help Song Guanchao, no matter what it was.

As long as she could help, it would be fine.

Song Guanchao was also clearly aware.

"By the way," Song Guanchao asked, "how much do you know about Secretary Wang?"

"Which Secretary Wang?"

"Wang Pinyan."

"Ah, you mean our Secretary Wang."

Wu Yun thought for two seconds and said, "I’m not very familiar with him, but my colleagues speak highly of him. He’s quite amiable and doesn’t put on airs."

Those were all useless pieces of information.

He mainly wanted to know if Wu Yun had any evidence of Wu Pinyan’s illegal activities.

Thinking of this, he suddenly laughed at himself.

Wu Yun, a minor staff member of the Disciplinary Committee, how could she possibly have dirt on her immediate superior.

"You don’t mean to ask me to investigate Secretary Wang, do you?"

Song Guanchao shook his head, "No need to investigate him."

He did want to investigate, but he couldn’t let Wu Yun do it.

It was too dangerous.

Secretary Wang was very close to Minister Zhou and Director Qin, this man definitely had issues.

The City Disciplinary Inspection Committee was an important department, as their duty was to oversee other departments.

If this department had issues, it fundamentally indicated that the entire city had problems.

Besides, attempting to take action against the Disciplinary Committee could easily lead to big trouble.

So, he couldn’t make a move on him for now.

Back at the City Committee, he didn’t see Zeng Li and didn’t know where he had gone.

He didn’t see Zeng Li all afternoon.

Soon it was time to leave work.

Wu Qiangwei came out of her office, and Song Guanchao also stood up.

"Secretary, are we going straight there?"

"I’m going to go home to change clothes first."

"Isn’t your outfit in the car?"

Wu Qiangwei glanced at him and said, "Changing into something else."

"Oh."

Song Guanchao was somewhat disappointed.

Wu Qiangwei hadn’t mentioned continuing the investigation these past two days.

Actually, he knew that the city didn’t need to investigate for the time being.

The issues they uncovered in those two days were enough to cause some department heads a lot of grief.

He just felt it was a pity.

After all, he didn’t often get the chance to see the beautiful sights beneath Wu Qiangwei’s clothing.

He went downstairs and arrived at the parking lot.

Song Guanchao noticed that the driver had turned into Wu Ming.

"Secretary Song." Wu Ming flashed a bright smile.

Song Guanchao maintained his expressionless face, pulled open the passenger door, and sat inside, while Wu Qiangwei sat in the back.

Arriving at the foot of the residential building, just as Wu Qiangwei got out of the car, a tall and handsome man approached.

"Qiangwei, just got off work?"

From behind the car window, Song Guanchao glanced and recognized the long-lost Feng Sheng.

This guy was already this familiar with Wu Qiangwei?

Even knew where she lived?

Wasn’t this just too blatant?

Wu Qiangwei smiled and hummed in agreement.

Feng Sheng asked, "Coming out for a run later?"

"Not tonight, I have some things going on."

"Alright then, looks like I’ll have to run alone."

Feng Sheng didn’t linger, chatting briefly before leaving.

All the while, he never glanced at Song Guanchao or Wu Ming in the car.

Song Guanchao opened the car door, just about to speak, Wu Qiangwei said, "Come upstairs with me."

Wu Ming also tried to follow, but Wu Qiangwei said, "You wait in the car for me."

"..." Wu Ming’s mouth twitched, Why does he get to go up, and I have to wait!
