Chapter 2960

Looking at Su Xinghui's gentle smile, Xin Jing didn't know what to say. Su Xinghui had come to Baozhou City for more than half a year and had already given her so much help, which made her once have a deep sense of dependence on Su Xinghui.

Later, she deliberately distanced herself from Su Xinghui. In this process, she found that her ability had been exercised and she was not so dependent on Su Xinghui. But now, when encountering these high-cadre children, she found that she still had to depend on Su Xinghui. At this moment, Su Xinghui still stood behind her and became her most reliable backing.

Xin Jing had an urge to cry, but she still held it back. She nodded forcefully and said, "Thank you!"

Su Xinghui smiled and said, "Why be so polite? Aren't we friends? Isn't it what friends should do to help each other?"

Xin Jing nodded and said, "Hmm, we are friends, friends forever."

On this day, a few guests came to Xin Jing's office again. The leader was surnamed Cheng, named Cheng Kaibin, a young man in his twenties. He looked quite handsome, but his face was full of evil, and his hair was left very long, looking like that kind of little hooligan.

The few people who came with Cheng Kaibin said they were from the Huafu Real Estate Development Company. Hearing that Baozhou City was carrying out old city renovation, they wanted to come to buy a few pieces of land and develop a few projects.

Xin Jing endured her patience and said, let them participate in the bidding through the normal bidding procedure.

The middle-aged man who was the leader said that their Huafu Real Estate Development Company's consultant was this Mr. Cheng Kaibin, and his father was Vice Governor Cheng of the province, so he asked Mayor Xin to take care of them a lot. They would not forget Mayor Xin.

Xin Jing couldn't help but look at Cheng Kaibin. Was he Vice Governor Cheng's son?

Xin Jing was now in charge of economic construction and naturally met Vice Governor Cheng many times. As soon as she looked, she saw that Cheng Kaibin and Vice Governor Cheng really looked very similar, and she knew that Vice Governor Cheng had two sons, and the younger son's age should be about the same as Cheng Kaibin's, so Cheng Kaibin's identity should not be suspicious.

However, Xin Jing didn't like this Cheng Kaibin at all, because his eyes were very floating, and his look at Xin Jing was also somewhat wrong, as if he was looking at Xin Jing as a woman, and there was that kind of greed in his eyes that Xin Jing was very familiar with.

This kind of look Xin Jing often saw before. Now that she had become a Vice Mayor with high power, she saw such looks less. Unexpectedly, she saw it again on such a young man now.

Xin Jing was very disgusted as soon as she saw it. She said to that middle-aged man that the bidding procedure was a procedure that must be passed for various projects in Baozhou City now. This was not something she could take care of, so she asked the guests not to disturb her work and go to participate in the bidding procedure normally.

The few people had no choice but to leave.

Unexpectedly, that afternoon, they found Wei Ziming again, asking Wei Ziming to help speak for them to Xin Jing. After Wei Ziming confirmed Cheng Kaibin's identity, he called Xin Jing, saying that Young Master Cheng wanted to invite Xin Jing to a meal in the evening, and asked Xin Jing to attend.

Xin Jing didn't want to eat this meal at all. However, Wei Ziming called personally, so she couldn't help but give him face. But if she went to eat this meal alone, as soon as she thought of Cheng Kaibin's eyes, she felt somewhat uncomfortable all over.

After thinking about it, Xin Jing called Su Xinghui and told him about this matter. She wanted to invite Su Xinghui to go to this meal with her.

As soon as Su Xinghui heard it, he knew that Xin Jing hoped he could take care of her. Otherwise, if she went to the banquet alone, who knew what kind of things that Young Master Cheng would do? Logically speaking, nothing should happen, but some high-cadre children's brain circuits were different from ordinary people, and it was said that Vice Governor Cheng's background was also very deep and also had a relationship with the red families in the capital.

Even if she went to eat alone and wouldn't encounter anything, those people wanted projects, and Xin Jing couldn't agree. Being pestered by those people, wouldn't she be annoyed to death? So Xin Jing could only look for him.

Su Xinghui agreed to go with Xin Jing.

In the afternoon, Su Xinghui and Xin Jing went to the Baozhou Hotel together. The place where Cheng Kaibin invited them to eat was here. After arriving here, Su Xinghui asked Xia Song and Zhai Yingjie to eat in the hall and wait for them.

That middle-aged man waited in the hall personally. He saw Xin Jing and said with a smile, "Mayor Xin, please come in, Young Master Cheng is already waiting for your arrival in the private room."

The middle-aged man also saw Su Xinghui, but he didn't care. He saw Su Xinghui was so young and thought he was Xin Jing's secretary. It was very normal for a female mayor like Xin Jing to bring a secretary.

Xin Jing didn't say Su Xinghui's identity either. She nodded slightly and walked towards the private room with the middle-aged man, while Su Xinghui walked beside her, which made the middle-aged man feel that this young secretary didn't know the rules very well? Actually walking parallel with the leader.

The three entered the private room. Cheng Kaibin sat in the main seat with a big knife and a big horse. Other people were talking to him flatteringly. Seeing Xin Jing enter, Cheng Kaibin's eyes lit up. He smiled and said, "Mayor Xin, hello, sit here quickly."

Cheng Kaibin pointed to the seat beside him. Xin Jing frowned and sat in a seat opposite Cheng Kaibin, saying, "I'll just sit here."

Su Xinghui smiled slightly and sat beside Xin Jing.

Cheng Kaibin was somewhat embarrassed, but he immediately smiled and said, "Mayor Xin can sit wherever she wants. What does Mayor Xin want to eat? Old Han, let the waiter come in and order dishes."

Su Xinghui looked at Cheng Kaibin. He also saw that this Cheng Kaibin and Vice Governor Cheng really looked very similar. However, he was not as strong as Vice Governor Cheng. He looked very thin, as if a big wind could blow him down, and his face looked blue, which was obviously the result of excessive indulgence.

It looked like this was also a playboy.

That middle-aged man named Old Han called the waiter in to order dishes. He asked Xin Jing what dishes she liked to eat. Xin Jing asked Su Xinghui if there were any dishes he liked to eat. Su Xinghui shook his head and said whatever. Xin Jing told Old Han whatever.

Seeing Xin Jing whispering to Su Xinghui, a flash of jealousy flashed in Cheng Kaibin's eyes, but he only thought Su Xinghui was Xin Jing's secretary, so he didn't say anything.

Xin Jing said whatever, so Old Han could only order all the signature dishes of the Baozhou Hotel, and then asked, "Can Mayor Xin drink?"

Xin Jing said expressionlessly, "I don't drink, I'll just drink water."

Old Han said, "How about drinking some red wine? Red wine can make ladies beautiful."

As soon as Xin Jing heard red wine, she thought of the experience of drinking red wine and making a fool of herself in front of Su Xinghui. She shook her head and said, "I don't drink red wine either. I am allergic to alcohol."

Since Xin Jing said so, Old Han couldn't insist. He said to Su Xinghui, "This little brother, then you drink some wine?"

Su Xinghui said noncommittally, "Okay."

Old Han felt more and more that this Su Xinghui was somewhat ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth; his own leaders weren't drinking, yet he was showing off. It seemed this Su Xinghui was someone who had deeply won the favor of Mayor Xin.

However, this was also fine. If he could build a good relationship with Xin Jing's secretary, and he said a few good words in front of Xin Jing, perhaps he would be able to secure a project from Xin Jing.

Old Han was not like Cheng Kaibin; he had been rolling and crawling in the business world for many years and was well-versed in how to deal with these officials in the political arena. Although Cheng Kaibin was the son of Cheng Huangong, this identity could not be abused; it could only serve as a stepping stone, and other rules that should be followed still had to be followed.

Old Han then smiled and said, "Then let's drink Moutai."

After handing the menu to the waiter, Old Han poured tea for the two of them first, and then they started chatting. That Cheng Kaibin was a straw bag; he didn't know what to say in such a setting, so he was equivalent to a signboard, whereas Old Han was knowledgeable and experienced.

Some of the things Old Han talked about were quite interesting, and he spoke in a way that everyone listened with great relish; even Xin Jing was attracted. He spoke about some of his experiences traveling to ethnic minority regions, and also recounted some things he had seen while doing business in the marketplace. He was eloquent, and his storytelling was very engaging.
