Chapter 695: Satisfied, right?

As soon as Zhao De sat down, Zheng Ru leaned over and whispered: "What did Division Chief Lan call you for? Was it a struggle session?"

Zheng Ru's gleeful expression made Zhao De feel as if she were specifically waiting to watch his show. He rolled his eyes at her and said in an indifferent tone: "Yeah! It was a struggle session. Are you satisfied?"

Seeing that he seemed angry, Zheng Ru felt she had asked for it. She pouted and said: "Pfft, Division Chief Lan criticized you, why are you losing your temper at me? Seriously!"

"You were waiting to watch my show, weren't you?" Seeing that Zheng Ru really thought he was angry, Zhao De immediately chuckled and said.

"Who was waiting to watch your show? If I were waiting to watch your show, I wouldn't have told you what kind of person Division Chief Lan was in the first place." Zheng Ru pouted and said.

Just then, Baldy Zheng came out of Lan Mei's office and arrived at the Planning Division. With a smile on his face, he said kindly: "Everyone is working, I see."

Seeing the Construction Committee's boss arrive, the few of them stood up in unison. Xia Xia Xia Xia Jian was even more enthusiastic, moving his own chair forward and smiling as he buttered him up: "Director Zheng, please sit, please sit."

Baldy Zheng waved his hand and chuckled: "It's fine, I'm just passing by to see what you're all busy with. I won't sit." After saying this, he walked directly to Zhao De, making him think this old bald guy was going to lecture him on some grand principles again. He felt very impatient, but still had to put on a smiling face.

"Little Zhao, I'm going out. I forgot you drove the car away last night. Is the car key still with you?" Baldy Zheng had originally planned to go out. After coming out of Lan Mei's office, he patted his pocket and found the car key missing. After thinking carefully, he remembered his wife saying this morning that the car had been driven away by Zhao De, so he came here to get the key.

Only then did Zhao De remember he hadn't returned the car key to him. He hurriedly took the key out of his pants pocket, bent over, and handed it to him: "Director Zheng, I'm really sorry. I forgot about it and almost delayed your trip."

Because Zhao De had the special relationship of being the "cousin" of Minister Su Qing of the Organization Department, and because he was good at observing and had a sharp mind, Baldy Zheng gradually appreciated him more and more. He felt that finding a "cousin" of the Provincial Organization Department Minister as a son-in-law for the Construction Committee Director was not only not a loss, but a gain. He really wanted to set up a relationship between him and his daughter, Zheng Ru. He took the car key, smiled, and patted Zhao De on the shoulder: "Little Zhao, work hard. If there's anything you don't understand, ask your Division Chief Lan and your colleagues more."

Zhao De nodded repeatedly and said yes, but he felt a bit unhappy inside. He hated it most when people mentioned Sister Su in front of others, as if everything he did was because of Sister Su's connections.

Before leaving, Baldy Zheng turned around and used a suggestive gaze to smile and hint to Zheng Ru: "Ru Ru, if Little Zhao has any difficulties at work, you should take the initiative to help him."

Others didn't know what Baldy Zheng was calculating, but how could his own daughter not know? Seeing his look, Zheng Ru rolled her eyes disdainfully and said: "I know! You have things to do, so hurry up and go. Don't affect our Planning Division's work."

Baldy Zheng was rebuked by his own daughter in front of so many people. He immediately felt he had lost face, so he glared at her fiercely and said: "You girl, is this the tone you use with your leader? You have no sense of propriety!" After saying this, he glared at her again and left in anger.

Zheng Ru didn't care at all. She knew what kind of person her father was better than anyone. He was just trying to establish his own majesty in front of others. She ignored him and just focused on her own work.

As soon as Baldy Zheng walked out of the Planning Division, Xia Xia Xia Xia Jian came forward to "stand up for" Baldy Zheng in front of Zheng Ru: "Little Zheng, how could you speak to Director Zheng like that? Although he is your father, he is still the top leader of our Construction Committee, after all. You really have no sense of propriety."

Xia Xia Xia Xia Jian's intention was obvious: he just wanted to speak for Baldy Zheng in front of Zheng Ru, so that Zheng Ru would mention him in front of Baldy Zheng, allowing Baldy Zheng to deepen his impression of him. Zheng Ru had been working for a few days, and she had long since figured out what kind of person everyone was. She had always detested slippery people like Xia Xia Xia Xia Jian who sucked up to others. She glanced at him disdainfully and said: "I like it! What's it to you!"

Xia Xia Xia Xia Jian never expected that he would fail to steal a chicken and instead lose the rice. He was snubbed and looked at her awkwardly, then immediately pretended to be nonchalant, chuckled, and pointed at her, muttering to himself that if it weren't for the fact that Old Zheng was her father, he wouldn't even look at her face!

Zhao De had only been working for two days, but he gradually felt that Xia Xia Xia Xia Jian was an unreliable person. He looked very enthusiastic toward people, but his treacherous look told him he wasn't a good person. He slanted a look at him, picked up some materials to read for a while, then turned to look at Zheng Ru. Seeing her looking at the computer and writing something with a look of irritation, he leaned over and whispered: "Is there anything I can help you with?"

"You help me? What help can you give me?" Zheng Ru slanted a look at him and said dismissively.

"Then what are you writing?" Zhao De looked at her computer screen. There weren't many words on it, and he couldn't tell what she was doing.

"Division Chief Lan asked me to draft an industry management method for the new district regarding urban construction and traffic development. I've only been working for a few days, and she's asking me to compile this. Isn't this deliberately making things difficult for me?" Zheng Ru rubbed her temples with a look of pain.

Division Chief Lan's real intention was to test the true ability of Director Zheng's daughter. The Construction Committee already had these normative documents, and they could be completely borrowed and slightly modified. But Zheng Ru had never been exposed to these things before. Lan Mei had instructed her for three or four days, and she hadn't even compiled a single line yet, staring at the computer in despair.

Zhao De had worked at the Yuyang City Coal Bureau for several years before. Although the things at the Coal Bureau were different from those at the Construction Committee, these normative things were basically the same. There was a trick to compiling these things: putting new wine in old bottles, just filling in new things according to the previous complete framework.

"How about... how about I try to see if I can help you?" Zhao De said, hiding his true ability.

"You help me?" Zheng Ru arched her brows slightly, slanted a look at him dismissively, and a look of contempt appeared on her lips. "You help me? You haven't even figured out the Planning Division's workflow yet, and you're going to help me."

"What? You don't believe I can help you?" Seeing that she looked down on him, Zhao De got excited. "Give me three days. Regardless of whether the things compiled are good or bad, I guarantee I'll give you a complete set of things. Do you dare to make this bet?" As he said this, he tilted his head and looked at her with confidence.

Zheng Ru widened her eyes slightly, chuckled dismissively, and said: "Division Chief Lan arranged for you to study the workflow, and you haven't even finished that, yet you're going to help me? Waiting for you to help me would take until the year of the monkey. You hurry up and sit over there to study. Don't disturb me. I have to hand it in to Division Chief Lan in a few days." As she said this, she pushed him.

"Alright, since you look down on me and think I can't help you, then I'll just consider it asking for trouble." Zhao De sighed and returned to his seat. Looking at her staring at the computer in despair, a sly smirk appeared on his lips. He thought to himself, *You girl, you look down on people. To prove my ability, I will start acting without a sound. * He walked forward, took all the normative documents out of the file cabinet and placed them on the table, found a preliminary planning scheme for the new district drafted by the provincial and municipal governments, and began to study them carefully in comparison.
