Chapter 1602

Zheng Tulu smiled kindly and said, "Aren't you revising the planning blueprint? Once you've finished, bring it over for Deputy Director He and me to vet for you. If there are truly outstanding points, we will submit it on your behalf, let the Municipal Party Committee, the Municipal Government, and the Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government take a look, and have experts conduct an evaluation. Once it's adopted, Comrade Xiao Zhao, your contribution will be unimaginable!" Zheng Tulu also deliberately fed Zhao Desan some sweet talk.

"This is also the credit of Director Zheng and Deputy Director He. Without your cultivation, how would I have thought of those things? So, if it is adopted, you two leaders will certainly deserve the credit as well," Zhao Desan said, making his words sound particularly pleasant.

Zheng Tulu gave another lukewarm chuckle and said, "In whatever we do, we shouldn't first consider what we can get, but rather what contributions we can make to the urban development of Xijing City and even Hexi Province, right?" Zheng Tulu stood on the moral high ground and gave a grand speech.

"Yes, yes, yes, Director Zheng, you are right," Zhao Desan nodded repeatedly in agreement.

Zheng Tulu smiled lightly, waved his hand, and said, "Alright, Comrade Xiao Zhao, I won't take up any more of your time. You go down and get busy. I have some work matters to discuss with Deputy Director He."

Zhao Desan nodded sheepishly and said, "Alright, then leaders, I'll head down first." As he said this, he glanced at He Liping, who had been sitting on the sofa without saying a word. He saw that she was also looking at him. Their gazes met again, and immediately, ambiguous sparks flew. The burning sensation gave He Liping a strange feeling, and she quickly turned her head away, no longer looking at him. It wasn't until Zhao Desan had walked out of the office that He Liping said to Zheng Tulu, "Old Zheng, didn't you notice that Comrade Xiao Zhao's words were very smooth?"

"How so?" Zheng Tulu asked with a smile.

"Isn't Comrade Xiao Zhao just trying to tell us that once his work achievements are recognized by those above, we will also benefit? He is telling you not to make things difficult for him. Isn't that what he meant?" He Liping said.

Zheng Tulu picked up his teacup, opened the lid, took a careful sip, put the cup down, smacked his lips, and said, "Liping, you listen very carefully. But what you said is true. In the end, Comrade Xiao Zhao is still afraid that we will hinder his official career. However, having said that, Liping, you are also right. If he can really achieve something, then we will certainly benefit as well. So, let's loosen the reins and let him do it. If he does well, it's related to us; if he doesn't do well, he can take the responsibility himself. Isn't this a win-win solution?"

"Old Zheng, your thoughts coincide with mine. That is exactly what I meant. Let's try to ask less about his work, leave him room to perform, and see what he can come up with," He Liping said to Zheng Tulu with a knowing smile.

Zheng Tulu took out a cigarette, lit it, leaned back in his boss chair, took a drag, and said with a sinister smile, "Good, let's do it! But if he has any movements, you must have Little Jia report to you in a timely manner. Of course, as long as he is in the office, he won't be able to escape my eyes for even a second!"

Coming out of Zheng Tulu's office and going downstairs, Zhao Desan was thinking about the secret matter he was working on. It was 100% certain that Jia Wanli had leaked the news. Although he didn't trust her much to begin with, Zhao Desan felt that she probably didn't intend to betray him. From the trivial details of daily life, he could feel that Jia Wanli still had feelings for him. For a woman with whom he had an emotional entanglement, especially a charming and moving young wife like Jia Wanli, Zhao Desan really couldn't bring himself to get angry!
