Chapter 745

Zheng the Bald Donkey, the old guy, looked at Zhao De pressing his mobile phone non-stop from the rearview mirror and thought he was sending a message to some little girl. He said jokingly in a strange tone, "Little Zhao, your business is quite busy."

Zhao De heard that this guy was obviously a bit unhappy. He was not a fool. How could he hold a mobile phone and play like a fool when sitting in a car with a leader? So he put away his mobile phone and explained, "I'm greeting my cousin and telling her that I'm accompanying you to an engagement, Director Zheng. Otherwise, she would call and ask."

Zheng the Bald Donkey said "Oh," and only then did he restore his kind tone and said with a smile, "Minister Su is quite strict with you."

"She is a bit strict with me. She usually doesn't let me run around at night," Zhao De answered with a smile. Saying this was also to let Zheng the Bald Donkey understand euphemistically that accompanying him to an engagement tonight was giving him a lot of face.

"Being a bit strict is also good. Now you young comrades like to go out to bars and such after getting off work. Being strict will instead cultivate a good habit," Zheng the Bald Donkey said.

Zhao De just smiled and nodded, then took out his mobile phone and looked at it. Sister Su didn't reply to the message, which made him a bit worried that Sister Su didn't want him to accompany Zheng the Bald Donkey to the engagement. His uneasy mood was revealed. Zheng the Bald Donkey saw him holding his mobile phone and looking a bit uneasy from the rearview mirror, so he took out his mobile phone from his briefcase and said with a smile as if nothing had happened, "Since I asked you to accompany me to the engagement today, I should tell Minister Su." While saying this, he dialed Su Qing's phone.

After a while, the phone was connected. Zheng the Bald Donkey said respectfully with a smile, "Minister Su, I'm reporting something to you. I asked Little Zhao to accompany me to dinner tonight. Don't blame him if he goes back late..."

Su Qing didn't mean to blame Zhao De. On the contrary, she was happy that he was so valued by the leader in such a short few months. But while happy, she thought that Zheng the Bald Donkey's special care for him was for the purpose of wanting to take him as his son-in-law, so she was a bit unhappy in her heart. She was complaining in her heart that Zhao De didn't greet her first and went with Zheng the Bald Donkey directly, only to "cut first and report later." Just when her mood was not very beautiful, Zheng the Bald Donkey called. For the sake of face, Su Qing still smiled politely and said, "Old Zheng, look at what you're saying. Little Zhao is your subordinate. If you take him, take him. Why do you have to call me specifically? Did Little Zhao ask you to call me?"

"No, I saw that Little Zhao seemed to have some thoughts, and I was afraid that you, Minister Su, wouldn't want it, so I specifically called you, Minister Su, to ask for your instructions," Zheng the Bald Donkey said politely with a smile.

"Ask for instructions? What is there to ask for? Little Zhao is your subordinate. It's very normal to accompany you to dinner," Su Qing also said with a polite smile. For the sake of being an acquaintance with Zheng the Bald Donkey, she gave him enough face. Thinking that since Zhao De was also forced to be called to dinner, she shouldn't blame him.
