Chapter 979

"Director Zheng, you're done with your call?" Seeing him come in with a glowing face, Han Xue asked with a smile.

Zheng Tulu walked over, sat down, and said with a chuckle: "All done."

Han Xue gave a bright smile, and with great perceptiveness, poured a cup of tea and presented it to Zheng Tulu, saying respectfully: "Director Zheng, please have some water."

Looking at Han Xue, who stood before him with a slender figure and a pure, beautiful face, the old man's lecherous heart stirred again. His two triangular eyes gazed at her lustfully, and he reached out with his two thick, fleshy hands, but instead of taking the cup, he directly grasped her smooth, delicate jade-like hand.

"Director Zheng, you... what are you doing?" Han Xue looked at his ill-intentioned move, gave him a charming glance with her watery eyes, and said with a coquettish pout, lowering her brow and eyelids.

"Xue'er, you look really beautiful today." Zheng Tulu looked up and down at Han Xue's tall and graceful body. This waist, this face, these firm, towering jade peaks made Zheng Tulu feel a bit itchy inside. He wanted to take advantage of the half-hour before Director Zhu and Vice Minister Li arrived to have a quick round. For an old lecher like Zheng Tulu, who was over fifty and whose heart was willing but whose strength was failing, let alone half an hour, even ten minutes was more than enough.

Han Xue, held by Zheng Tulu, stood motionless before him, lowered her head, and said in a shy, soft voice: "Director Zheng, you're making me feel embarrassed with your compliments."

"I'm just speaking the truth." The old man's triangular eyes stared fixedly at the round, firm chest area wrapped in Han Xue's tight sweater, his throat moving with a gulping sound; he was already drooling.

"Director Zheng, you... why are you holding my hand?" Seeing him only staring at her without any actual action, Han Xue deliberately teased him.

"I... I want to have a go with you first, how about it?" The shameless old lecher said bluntly.

"If you like it, Director Zheng, then... then go ahead." Han Xue said shyly, and took the initiative to sit on Zheng Tulu's lap, whispering: "Director Zheng, be quick, I'm afraid your guests will arrive soon."

True, this little Xue was really considerate, Zheng Tulu thought. With a wicked smile, he couldn't wait to lift her skirt and pull down her cotton stockings.

Han Xue gave him a charming look, cleaned herself up, tossed the paper ball into the trash can nearby, and returned to her seat.

"By the way, Director Zheng, which Director did you say we are eating with later?" Han Xue had forgotten exactly which department Zheng Tulu's distinguished guest was from; she only remembered it was a Director.

"Director Zhu from the Provincial Personnel Department, and Vice Minister Li from the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department—they are both big-name figures," Zheng Tulu said. "When they arrive later, Xue'er, you must be sharp. Toast when you should, joke when you should, and at appropriate times, you might have to suffer a little loss. Xue'er, you're a smart person; you could say it's not really a loss. Once you know these two big figures, you definitely won't lose out. Do you understand what I mean, Xue'er?"

Although Han Xue had no experience in this kind of drinking accompaniment, she had seen it in TV dramas and some books. Now, hearing Zheng Tulu say this, she felt it was about the same. For the sake of her future in the hospital, Han Xue felt there was nothing she couldn't endure, so she nodded with a charming smile and said: "Since you, Director Zheng, can bring me to such an occasion, how could I make you lose face?"

Zheng Tulu was very satisfied that Han Xue was so quick to understand and so considerate. It seemed he hadn't misjudged her. He smiled contentedly and said: "Xue'er, not only are you beautiful, but your brain is also flexible. You will definitely have a future."

Han Xue smiled shyly and said: "That will still require you, Director Zheng, to promote me more in the future."

Zheng Tulu chuckled: "Xue'er, don't worry about that. You are so considerate, how could I treat you poorly? Mm... hehe."

Han Xue blushed, gave a shallow, charming smile, and said: "With those words from you, Director Zheng, I'll do whatever you ask."

Zheng Tulu smiled contentedly, his eyes squinting into a line.

At this moment, the sound of two men talking heartily came from the hallway. Zheng Tulu immediately recognized the voices of Director Zhu and Vice Minister Li and hurriedly got up to welcome them. Just as he reached the door of the private room, it was pushed open. Director Zhu and Vice Minister Li walked in one after the other, chatting and laughing.

"Director Zhu, Vice Minister Li, hello, hello." Zheng Tulu bowed slightly, greeting them with enthusiasm and respect, looking every bit like a lackey.

"Director Zheng is already here," Director Zhu greeted him, and Li Changping patted him on the shoulder with a smile.

"Director Zhu, Vice Minister Li, let me introduce you." Zheng Tulu immediately remembered that Han Xue was still standing to the side and said enthusiastically, "This is a friend of mine, Xue'er. Xue'er, this is Director Zhu from our Provincial Personnel Department and Vice Minister Li from the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department."

Han Xue, extremely perceptive, stepped forward with a smile and said: "Hello, Director Zhu, hello, Vice Minister Li."

Seeing such a beautiful girl in her early twenties with a pure face and an enchanting figure, Director Zhu's eyes immediately lit up. He exchanged a glance with Vice Minister Li, and they both smiled kindly and said in unison: "Hello, Xue'er."

The bald donkey had already noticed that Director Zhu seemed very satisfied with Xue'er. That was good; as long as he could satisfy him by any means, he could get his own business done. "Director Zhu, Vice Minister Li, please sit, please sit." Zheng Tulu diligently pulled out chairs to welcome them to sit down, serving cigarettes and pouring tea.

After lighting cigarettes for Director Zhu and Vice Minister Li, Zheng Tulu ordered the hotel to start serving dishes according to the highest standards, and then asked Director Zhu and Vice Minister Li with a smile: "Director Zhu, Vice Minister Li, what would you like to drink?"

"Whatever, whatever." Director Zhu, while smoking, tilted his head and smiled kindly at Han Xue, completely distracted from what they were drinking.

Vice Minister Li also added: "Whatever is fine."
