CCTV News: In Beijing, Chen Shuting brings a woman to her door.

Preparing fruit is nothing but an excuse.

The main point is to leave the space for conversation to be reserved for myself and Meng Dehai.

However, it's also a good thing for me.

With this in mind, Gao Qilin smiled faintly and quickly sat down on the sofa in the reception area.

Meng Dehai glared at him without hesitation: "You still have the nerve to sit here?"

Gao Qilin spread his hands innocently: "Uncle Meng, what did I do wrong? Why can't I sit?"

Meng Dehai stood up helplessly and walked towards Gao Qilin, his face still feigning seriousness: "What do you think?"

"Shanshui Group wants to build a residential area. Such a big thing, why didn't they consult with me first, and just got the housing management bureau to approve it directly?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gao Qilin chuckled helplessly, drawing out his words, "...just for something like this..."

Meng Dehai's eyes widened: "Is this a small matter?"

Gao Qilin quickly stood up and pretended to massage Meng Dehai's shoulders: "Alright, Uncle Meng, don't be angry."

"I have the confidence to allow Shanshui Group to establish residential areas."

Meng Dehai's expression remained displeased: "What gives you the confidence? The confidence to pay for demolition?"

"Do you know how much it will cost once the residential area is sold?"

Gao Qilin smiled faintly.

He then said, "Uncle Meng, I understand what you mean. You are worried that the demolition compensation will be too much after the residential area is established."

"But... what if we don't have to pay this demolition compensation?"

As he spoke, Gao Qilin narrowed his eyes slightly: "For example, when the project was halfway completed, the Shanshui Group was exposed to have major quality problems."

"Would anyone dare to buy this apartment building?"

"Even if it's sold at a very low price, who would dare risk their life?"

"Wouldn't it be better to let the Shanshui Group suffer a loss?"

　(Liao Nuo's) Gao Qilin finished speaking.

A thoughtful look appeared on Meng Dehai's face as he looked at Gao Qilin: "You mean..."

Before Meng Dehai could finish speaking, Gao Qilin simply chuckled.

"What I mean is that the quality of the projects undertaken by Shanshui Group is not guaranteed."

“Since 98, China has been cracking down on shoddy construction projects. The current construction by Shanshui Group has given us enough leverage to find fault with them.”

Meng Dehai nodded thoughtfully: "Once the residential area is built, this will be a ready-made handle against us."

He said it over and over again.

Meng Dehai's previously serious expression finally softened into a smile: "You're quite something, kid."

Gao Qilin chuckled twice: "Uncle Meng, now I'm sitting here, is that alright, Yong?"

Meng Dehai stretched out his hand, smiling as he pointed at Gao Qilin: "You little rascal, you have more tricks up your sleeve than Huang Lao and I combined. You can always find a reason not to let you sit."

Chapter 213 Shanshui Group, Shoddy Construction Project!

As Meng Dehai finished speaking, Gao Qilin simply smiled faintly, then stretched and asked, "Uncle Meng, is there anything else you wanted to do for me today?"

Meng Dehai said, "That's all, that's right."

"When Gao Yang is a little older, I'll bring him over to play. Also, I'll bring Gao Yue over to visit whenever she has a day off."①

After all. 0

Although neither Gao Yang nor Gao Yue were her daughter's grandchildren.

But ultimately, Gao Qilin is still his son-in-law, isn't he?

How come the son-in-law's child isn't my own grandson? 6

At this age, the people Meng Dehai is most proud of among his friends and colleagues are no longer himself, but his children and grandchildren…7

Let's not even mention how envious Meng Dehai is of his colleagues who occasionally bring their grandchildren to work.

Moreover, Meng Yu is now pregnant and expecting a mother.

Meng Dehai even projected his feelings for his unborn grandson onto the child. 5

And at this moment. 5

Gao Qilin quickly agreed with a smile.

……

soon.

Gao Qilin then left Meng Dehai's office and returned to the Gao family home.

When Meng Yu got off work and went home.

Gao Qilin called out to Meng Yu and waved to her: "Meng, I have two things to tell you."

Meng Yu sat down in Gao Qilin's lap with a smile: "Boss Gao, please let me know if you need anything."

Gao Qilin chuckled and pinched Meng Yu's cheek: "Smooth talker."

"Here's what you'd like to do: see if you can squeeze a small section into the newspaper. It doesn't need to be too big, just enough for people to see."

“Write an article saying something like… that there are doubts about the safety of the buildings constructed by Shanshui Group.”

Upon hearing this, Meng Yu immediately revealed a thoughtful expression.

"This... is not a problem."

"But Qilin, is this enough? Shanshui Group is such a big company, and we're just making a small division. We can't really do anything about it, can we?"

As Meng Yu finished speaking, Gao Qilin simply smiled faintly.

"It's not about taking any action against them, it's just about publishing an article like this as preparation."

"Let's be the vanguard."

"is that OK?"

Meng Yu smiled and snapped her fingers: "Of course, no problem."

"It's just a section, it's a small problem."

As she spoke, Meng Yu's face showed a hint of triumph: "Our editor-in-chief told me that after I give birth, I will be promoted when I return to the company next year."

"At that time, I will be in charge of the entire Jinghai City's livelihood section, and I will be the chief editor of livelihood (cabj)."

"Yo."

Gao Qilin raised his eyebrows and smiled, "It seems we can't call him Reporter Meng anymore; we'll have to call him Editor-in-Chief Meng."

Meng Yu snorted, "Of course," but quickly changed the subject, saying, "But speaking of which, it's because I found a good man."

“My husband and his older brother are the heads of Gao's Real Estate, and my younger brother works for the Housing Management Bureau.”

"This is also part of the reason why they considered promoting me."

Gao Qilin smiled immediately.

Then, Meng Yu took the initiative to speak up: "By the way, Qi Lin, what was the second thing you mentioned?"

Gao Qilin said, "The second thing is nothing, just that when you have time, you can take Gao Yue to visit Uncle Meng's workplace."

"When you get older, you all want to show off your daughters and granddaughters."

Meng Yu's big eyes curved slightly, and then she hugged Gao Qilin's neck tightly and kissed him twice on the cheek.

Gao Qilin's face immediately showed a look of surprise: "Why all of a sudden..."

Meng Yu chuckled and deliberately said in a harsh tone, "What's wrong, Boss Gao? Are you shy?"

As she spoke, Meng Yu leaned into Gao Qilin's arms and said, "It's because I'm happy that my husband can find women and raise children."

"At first, my biggest worry was that my dad would mind Sister Shuting and Gao Yue, but now it seems that my husband is very successful in managing the family. Even my parents like them very much."

Gao Qilin pinched Meng Yu's cheek: "It's because Uncle Meng is a good person."

"Alright, that's all for these two things. Reporter Meng, go and prepare them."

Meng Yu nodded with a smile.

……

next morning.

In Meng Yu's office at the Jinghai Daily office building.

Each colleague exclaimed in surprise when they arrived at their workstation.

Each person has a cup of coffee on their workstation, and it just so happens to be a familiar flavor.

After picking up the coffee, the order was surprisingly placed by Ms. Meng.

Soon someone came over to thank Meng Yu: "Meng Yu, thank you for the coffee."

"Reporter Meng, you're so kind of you, treating us to coffee today?"
