"Sit, sit, don't be so polite." Baldy Zheng waved his hand and instructed. In his heart, he had already regarded this young man with extraordinary external conditions and background as his prospective son-in-law, and his attitude toward him was much more enthusiastic than toward others.

Zhao De sat down slowly, with his hand in his pants pocket, holding the small box, preparing to bribe Baldy Zheng.

"Little Zhao, coming to find me so early as soon as you start work, is there something?" Baldy Zheng asked in a measured tone while putting tea leaves into the teacup.

Zhao De chuckled and stood up: "Nothing, just want to thank Director Zheng for implementing my work."

Hearing him say this, Baldy Zheng turned his head, was stunned for a moment, then chuckled with understanding: "How can I not handle the things Minister Su instructed? Besides, it's not a big deal. No need to thank me. Just work hard in the future. I bore the pressure to get you into the Construction Committee. Hundreds of eyes below are watching, so don't cause me any trouble." Baldy Zheng said while walking to the table and sitting in the chair. He glanced at the teacup that had tea leaves in it but had forgotten to pour water, and then instructed him: "Look at my memory. I forgot to pour water while talking to you. Little Zhao, help me get a cup of water."

"Director Zheng, don't worry. I definitely won't cause you any trouble." Zhao De said sincerely while walking forward, picked up Baldy Zheng's boss cup, got water at the water dispenser on the side, and presented it to him respectfully with both hands.

Baldy Zheng took the water cup and sipped the tea slowly: "However, speaking of which, I really spent a lot of effort to implement your work. Although I am the Construction Committee Director, since the promulgation of the 'Civil Servant Personnel Appointment System,' it hasn't been as simple as before to ask for connections to arrange people to come in. One is that the Personnel Bureau above is watching closely, and the other is that the procedures are much more complicated. But fortunately, Minister Su is your cousin, so I dared to bear the pressure to arrange you in."

Zhao De was a sensible person. He felt that Baldy Zheng saying this was clearly wanting to claim credit and ask for a reward. So he nodded with a chuckle: "Yes, I know Director Zheng spent a lot of effort to implement my work, so I specially came up today to thank you in person." As he said this, he took his hand out of his pants pocket, holding a delicate wooden box, and was about to put it on Baldy Zheng's table.

Baldy Zheng's eyes shone slightly. He was just about to know what was in this box when he suddenly saw Han Rui from the comprehensive office holding a folder and walking over from the window. He hurriedly gave Zhao De a look with a panicked expression and whispered: "Put it away quickly."

From the sudden change in his expression, Zhao De knew someone was coming, so he immediately stuffed the watch box back into his pants pocket. As soon as his hand was in his pants pocket, he heard someone knock three times lightly on the door behind him. So he turned around restlessly and looked. He saw Han Rui standing at the door holding a folder. From her natural expression, she shouldn't have seen that scene just now, Zhao De thought.
