Chapter 20 Down the Steps

  "Ah……haha……that……” Director Sun looked at Yang Bin with an embarrassed face, and then glanced at Dai Hongfei beside her. This morning's words she didn't take seriously, how could she have imagined that Yang Bin would really go out to dinner with Tang Ying? How could she have made this decision on behalf of Dai Hongfei?

  Besides, if Yang Bin really gets into the system, what about Zhou Xiao Yi? She made a deal with Qin Liang after all.

  "Comrade Yang Bin, are you currently working in Project Three Group? What position do you hold?" Director Dai asked him a question after hearing Yang Bin's words.

  "Ah... Xiao Yang is currently the project specialist of Project Three." Sun Piaoyun hastily explained to Director Dai, apparently not wanting Yang Bin and Dai Hongfei to have too much interaction.

  "Oh, a project commissioner? Hmm, it's rare to have such talent in the bureau, they must be given important tasks! " Dai Hongfei glared at Sun Piaoyun again, the implication in his eyes was clear... How did you become the director?"

  "Director Dai, I've never been reused before. But my supervisor Qin Liang has always wanted to kick me out of the project team." Yang Bin knew that Sun Piaoyun was stopping him from speaking, but did she really think she could keep him silent forever?

  Want to settle the Tang family, next Monday those two regular quotas, Director Dai you also need to consider carefully, right?

  "Xiao Yang, you're joking, Qin Liang doesn't have the power to fire you guys, I and Director Qi won't agree to it! Moreover, the final decision-making power is in Director Dai's hands." Sun Piaoyun responded with a smile to Yang Bin, while also making her attitude clear to Dai Hongfei.

  The exchange with Qin Liang was, after all, just a transfer and promotion of her lover's job, but her lover's ability was only that. If she was unstable in the position of the Commercial Bureau, everything would be in vain. At this time, it was necessary to grasp the direction of the wind, even if it meant cutting off one's own arm to break off the engagement with Qin Liang, there could not be any hesitation.

  As long as she remains in the position of project department director, even if Zhou Xiaoyi's matter doesn't work out this time, there will be plenty of opportunities to repay Qin Liang's favor in the future. But if she makes Director Dai unhappy, trouble will really arise.

  Being able to get on the same page as Tang Wen is a strategic task of the municipal party committee and government, which affects the performance and even the official hat of Director Dai and Director Huang. Sun Piaoyun still has a number in her mind about what's more important and what's less important.

  "Comrade Yang Bin, rest assured that you will be safe in the bureau. Everyone in the bureau knows my work style. As long as someone has the ability to work and is diligent, they will definitely be reused! I'll make time to talk to you specifically later!"

  "Ah, right! We're here to toast Yinyin, how did we end up talking about our own work? Ugh... I'll punish myself with a drink first!"

  Yang Bin also fell silent, and Dai Hongfei's emphasis on "finding time to talk" was unlikely to be just a casual remark. The lie Yang Bin had told earlier, that he was Tang Yuan's friend, was enough for Dai Hongfei to proactively call him the next day or the day after tomorrow.

  Unless he left the recruitment agency after wearing the badge.

  ……

  "This is a top-grade Yun Fengyu stone, named Tiangou Food Moon, which perfectly matches Miss Ying's zodiac sign. Golden yellow, with a majestic golden dog about to swallow the moon, symbolizing an aura of "who else but me". Here, I represent Director Huang and colleagues from the China Merchants Bureau to wish Miss Ying a more successful career in the coming year! This humble gift is not enough to express our respect, please accept it with a smile." Director Dai saw that the timing was almost right. He took the gift for Tang Ying from Sun Piaoyun's hand.

  "A majestic dog..." Tang Ying reluctantly accepted the Cloud Abundance pendant from Yun Feng, but muttered under her breath, seemingly disagreeing with Dai Hongfei's previous statement, or perhaps self-mocking.

  "Hmm...hmm...hmm...it's a Tian Gou that swallows the moon, I had Master open its light and bring it with me, it will be of great help to my career." Director Dai looked embarrassed when he heard Tang Ying's muttering, Tang Ying you are indeed a dog, I won't get another jade of a different zodiac sign.

  "This jade is quite beautiful, Director Dai, you have a good eye for it." Yang Bin stretched out his hand to take the pendant and examined it before returning it to Tang Ying.

  It's better that Director Pin still remembered his identity in the Merchant Bureau, as well as the matter of the two promotions in two days. At this time, it wouldn't hurt to give Director Dai some face and help him save some dignity, otherwise the current situation is indeed a bit awkward.

  "That's it! It's rare for Yingying to hold a concert in her hometown, and as her natal family, we can't slack off on Yingying! Let Yingying feel the warmth of her natal family, and she'll come back more often when she has time!" Director Dai took advantage of Yang Bin's ladder and smoothly escaped from the awkwardness earlier.

  Of course, he also didn't forget to give Yang Bin a wink, indicating that he would remember his contribution.

  "Thank you, Director Dai...” Tang Ying didn't give Director Dai any face, but she wanted to give Yang Bin some face, so she smiled and expressed her gratitude to Director Dai.

  "Thank you! Thank you!" Director Dai wiped the sweat from his forehead, with a look of relief. As long as the other party is willing to accept this gift, it means that tonight's efforts have not been in vain. Plus, Yang Bin and their relationship with the staff at the bureau, the matter of Dongxing New Industrial Park settling in Yunfeng City might just take a turn for the better.

  "Yingying, is this the good friend of your sister Awen? He said he came to see you on behalf of Awen, looks like their relationship is very close......" Yun Dou finally found an opportunity to confirm Yang Bin's identity with Tang Ying after being ignored for half a day.

  If it can be explored in this aspect, it will also be a valuable gossip news.

  Many people know about Tang Muer's only daughter, Tang Wen. Plus, Tang Ying is Tang Wen's sworn sister, so there are not a few people paying attention to her either. However, Tang Wen has always been elusive and mysterious. Being able to get gossip news related to her would definitely greatly attract social attention, which would be a great achievement for the newspaper.

  Just now Yang Bin just said that he and Tang Ying's sister are friends, but in Cheng Shan's mouth, they have become good friends and very close.

  "Alright, I think we'll stop here for today. You two take your time and enjoy your meal! We won't bother you anymore!" Dai Hongfei sent off Yu, initially achieving his goal of getting into the VIP room, and also gained insight into Yang Bin's situation, so it was best to quit while he was ahead.

  It was clearly inappropriate for Cheng Xiang to interview Tang Ying at this time, and after hearing her question, Tang Ying and Li Tianzhen's faces were already not looking good. As the person who led him in, Dai Hongfei naturally didn't want them to vent their anger on himself, so he forcibly interrupted Cheng Xiang's questioning and indicated that he wanted to leave.

  Everything should be done in moderation; excess is just as bad as deficiency.

  "Director Dai, take your time." Tang Ying smiled at Dai Hongfei, she really didn't want to answer Cheng Xiang's question, but also didn't want to offend Cheng Xiang. This time, Dai Hongfei's interruption was quite timely.

  "Wishing you a successful concert tonight! Yún Fēng is your hometown, remember to come back often in the future! By the way, next time please notify us in advance so we can show some enthusiasm as your hometown people!" Director Dai said a few more polite words, stretched out his hand and shook hands with Li Tianzhen, but when he extended his hand towards Tang Ying, he didn't get a response... The somewhat embarrassed Director Dai could only stretch out his hand to Yang Bin.

  Yang Bin graciously extended his hand and gave Director Dai a firm handshake, to avoid making him too embarrassed, and also smiled at Director Dai with a very basic expression.

  "Comrade Xiao Yang, young and vigorous! Full of energy and momentum! A bright future ahead! Go for it!" Dai Hongfei shook hands with Yang Bin firmly and gave him a thumbs up. Only then did the crowd leave the private room.

  ……

  "A majestic dog, huh... the implication of this jade is really good." After Director Dai and his entourage left, Tang Ying tossed the jade onto the dinner table, seemingly somewhat displeased.

  "Clouds and jade, orange crystal grade is also good to send to our home Yingying? At least get a red diamond out? They are all some common people, don't bother with them in the future." Li Tianzhen looked at the jade for a moment, and his face also showed some disgust.

  "They are the leaders of your unit?" Tang Ying seemed to realize something, turned her head and looked at Yang Bin apologetically. Not giving him face as a leader is not giving him face at all.

  "Hmm, yes, the previous waiter and waitress were also from our department, they must have been sent to infiltrate. Hmph, this is really embarrassing..." Yang Bin shook his head.

  "Oh?" Tang Ying was taken aback for a moment, and soon recalled the scene that had occurred in the private room earlier. She couldn't help but burst out laughing. It turned out that Yang Bin wasn't being petty with those two, but rather he couldn't stand what they were doing.

  What they did was indeed the thing Tang Ying hated most as a famous singer.

  "I didn't know they would come." Yang Bin explained to Tang Ying, and again stared straight at her pretty face and big eyes.

  "I know..." Tang Ying nodded to Yang Bin, and after exchanging a glance with him for a while, she quickly retreated under his gaze that reeked of dog shit.
