Chapter 308

Su Qing looked a bit anxious, as if something important was happening. She lowered her eyelids, her face full of helplessness. Zhao De saw all this, seemingly forgetting that he had once used his own phone to call her. At this moment, he eagerly took out his own phone and offered it: "Minister Su, use mine?"

Su Qing's slightly furrowed brows smoothed out. She smiled at him gently and gratefully, took his phone, dialed a number, and made the call.

From the tone Su Qing used during this call, Zhao De guessed that the person on the other end was definitely a more powerful figure. Otherwise, with Su Qing's status as the Minister of the Provincial Organization Department, she wouldn't need to return such an urgent call to anyone, let alone speak in such a low, submissive tone on the phone.

After finishing the call, Su Qing returned the phone to Zhao De. Without waiting for Zhao De or her cousin Su Jing to ask, she explained herself: "I returned a call to the Deputy Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission. He wants to talk to me about something, so I'm afraid I have to go."

Su Jing said, "Cousin, I'm finished eating too. Let's just leave together."
