“Bai Hai is an idiot, but his father is not,” the man called Brother Li casually threw the diamond ring in his hand to an scantily-clad hostess, and said with a faint smile: “He cannot refuse such a thing, but once the other party makes any move, he will be the first to withdraw, trying not to offend anyone, very cautious.
“Bai Lian Jie is indeed a model of self-preservation in official circles.
Another young man put down his wine glass and laughed: “He’s also a model of slow promotion. Ten years ago when he divorced his wife, he was already a deputy director of the industrial and commercial bureau. After so many years, he’s only become a small section chief, while his ex-wife has climbed to the position of deputy mayor. I don’t know which bed she’s been in to get promoted so quickly.”
“A mediocre father and a smart mother giving birth to two sons is quite interesting,” the young man playing dice laughed: “The elder son is shrewd, and under his mother’s patronage, he’s now a deputy section chief. The younger son is cowardly and reckless, yet puts on airs, looking down on everyone. Little does he know that in others’ eyes, he’s just a stinky stone in a cesspit, too dirty to even look at.”
“Isn’t this exactly the pathfinder Brother Li needs?” Another young man let go of the hostess in his arms and said with a hint of flattery: “In the entire Leqing area, who dares to compete with Brother Li? That’s purely asking for trouble. Remember what happened to the Haiwei Group back then…”
“Enough,” before the young man could finish, Brother Li coldly glared at him, interrupting his words. However, his face revealed a spring-like smile: “Recently, things have been tight upstairs, and brothers have been feeling the pressure. After finally finding a small, rootless outsider, when it’s time to make a move, there can be no hesitation.”
At this point, Brother Li waved his hand to the scantily-clad hostesses: “You can all leave now.”
“Yes, Young Master,” the hostesses, seemingly very familiar with him, giggled and filed out, soon leaving only the six young men, including Brother Li, in the room.
