Chapter 116: Inspection Team

Lu Min went backstage and heard several girls discussing while checking their makeup.

"Leilei, I heard there are important guests in the inspection team this time, one of whom is the chairman of some large group from Hong Kong and his third young master. They say they are going to donate a large airplane to us."

An Leilei nodded, but frowned and said softly: "Xiuying, it's better not to discuss this casually."

Xiuying looked around, and although she didn't care much, she shut her mouth.

She turned to talk about something else.

An Leilei looked at the theater from afar; except for the empty rostrum, the other places were almost full.

She couldn't help but recall her parents' instructions from the morning, telling her to perform well, bring out everything she had learned in her life, and leave a deep impression on that Mr. Zhen in the inspection team.

An Leilei clenched her hands. She was twenty-one this year; as a dancer, she only had these few years to perform on stage. Once she passed twenty-five, she would basically lose the opportunity to perform.

Zhen Xi was Mr. Zhen's favorite youngest son and the successor he had decided upon despite all opposition.

An Leilei relaxed her brows; perhaps today really was a good opportunity.

Then she saw Lu Min, thought for a moment, walked up to her, and asked: "Why hasn't the inspection team arrived yet?"

There were ten minutes left until the time; if the inspection team didn't arrive, the performance couldn't start.

Lu Min shook her head and said: "I don't know either. The director and manager are both waiting outside."

An Leilei looked at her expression, then looked at the theater again.

She had met Qin Hengzhi.

Qin Hengzhi had gone to Grandpa Bai's house when he first came to Jiangcheng, and she had seen him by the grape corridor in the provincial compound.

It was also strange; there were clearly so many people in the theater, so how did she see Qin Hengzhi at a glance?

An Leilei glanced and withdrew her gaze, looking at Lu Min with disdain: "What did you go do just now?"

Lu Min looked at An Leilei and said indifferently: "Talked to Representative Qin about something."

Afterward, Lu Min turned and left.

An Leilei looked at her back with mockery. Ever since Qin Hengzhi came to 516, and ever since many people knew he was the grandson of the Qin leader in Beidu and the grandson of Grandpa Bai, these people had been boiling behind his back, competing to introduce partners to Qin Hengzhi.

She was one of them.

And that fool Lu Min, she didn't know what was so special about her, but she actually managed to meet Qin Hengzhi. It's a pity, such a good opportunity, yet she didn't grasp it.

Now that she regrets it, what's the use?

An Leilei smiled mockingly and was about to leave when she saw a team of people filing in.

She saw at a glance a young man wearing a crisp suit.

Being far away, she couldn't see what he looked like.

But she could see he was the tallest.

His temperament was also the most unique.

In her panic, An Leilei couldn't help but look at the equally dazzling Qin Hengzhi.

Just then, the team leader shouted to her: "Leilei, Leilei, what are you doing? Hurry up and come over, the inspection team is here, get ready to go on stage."

And at this moment, Lu Qiao also saw this group of people.

What surprised her was that there was a young man wearing a suit here.

One must know that nowadays, except for foreign guests, almost no one wore suits.

But Lu Qiao didn't think there was anything about suits; they would soon be common items, showing no particular style.

But it was 1975 now.

Someone in the inspection team wearing this, either they were foreign affairs personnel, or they were overseas Chinese from abroad or from Hong Kong?

The inspection team was surrounded by security personnel in military uniforms.

Walking with the man in the suit was an old man with gray hair and a vigorous gait.

Wearing a white silk shirt, his temperament was very similar to the man in the suit.

Qin Hengzhi clearly knew.

He leaned toward Lu Qiao and said in a low voice: "The name is inspection team, but actually they are accompanying Mr. Zhen back to his hometown. The Zhen family was once the hegemon of the north, later went to Hong Kong, and some time ago said they would donate a batch of airplanes. Now it seems it should be a done deal."

Lu Qiao blinked, watching that group of people being led by attendants to sit down one by one.

Lu Qiao said: "Besides watching the performance, will they also visit?"

Qin Hengzhi nodded: "Mm, they will."

At this time, she heard someone next to her say: "That man is wearing a suit."

"Feels like a suit is really good-looking."

"How is it better looking than our clothes?"

"Strange clothes."

"What's so strange about it? Before the founding of the country, everywhere was full of people wearing this stuff."

"How did that person come with the inspection team? He isn't one of us, is he?"

"Today is a report performance, all internal people, watch your influence when speaking."

And just then, the performance started.

Everyone was attracted by the stage.

It was Lu Qiao's first time watching a ballet like *The Red Detachment of Women* in such an atmosphere.

One has to admit, the atmosphere is just different, rendering people's hearts burning hot.

The wonderful performance was met with a round of applause.

Everyone was clapping; it really wasn't an exaggeration, everyone was very enthusiastic.

Lu Qiao was also extremely enthusiastic.

Because they really danced well.

But clearly, on the rostrum seats, that man in the suit was leaning against the back of his chair, bored.

Even from Lu Qiao's angle, she could see this scene.

The actors on stage had all exited, and the theater lights were turned on; the performance ended here.

It's just that no one moved, because according to rules and etiquette, for this kind of internal performance, one had to wait for the leaders to leave before everyone could leave.

Anyway, there was nothing to do, so they just waited.

The theater wasn't noisy; on the contrary, it was very quiet.

With the inspection team present, naturally everything went smoothly. Lu Qiao, sitting in her seat, had good eyesight and saw the full picture of the inspection team.

However, she caught sight of an old man wearing a Zhongshan suit who gave her a feeling of familiarity.

But she didn't know him at all, so how could he be familiar?

They were neither Factory Director Hao nor Secretary He. She grew up in a military factory, and there was no such person in her memory of old people.

There was no TV at home, so naturally, she couldn't have seen him on TV.

As for newspapers, she didn't have this impression either.

Her thoughts were just a fleeting moment, and these people walked out one after another.

Qin Hengzhi, sitting beside her, said in a low voice again: "Walking with Deputy Factory Director Lin is his father, Old Lin, who is in charge of aviation. He is the earliest pilot. He is accompanying Mr. Zhen to Jiangcheng this time and should go to the military factory. The young man in the suit is Zhen Xi, Mr. Zhen's youngest son. People in Hong Kong like to call him the Third Young Master. The others are leaders in the city; I'm not very familiar with them."

Qin Hengzhi's voice was very low. Lu Qiao suddenly realized; no wonder that old man looked familiar, so he was Deputy Factory Director Lin's father.

It's just that they didn't look very much alike.

Lu Qiao also lowered her voice: "I don't know if they will arrange for the neighborhood office to assist in reception work. I was also preparing to hold another large market in a few days."

Qin Hengzhi: "Don't for now. The factory won't agree, because this inspection team will only be at the factory for these few days."

While they were talking, the inspection team members had already walked out.

Only then did everyone start leaving one after another.

Qin Hengzhi had come in a jeep.

Lu Qiao, who had gotten into the car, was seen by Shen Yun, who came out afterward. She gripped the bicycle handlebars tightly, her eyes almost spitting fire.

Shen Yun asked Liang Aishu: "Can the jeep from the military representative office be driven out casually?" ===== CHAPTER 117 =====
