The Underground Emperor: Starting with Running Away with His Sister-in-Law

Do you know what it means to be a lamb entering a tiger's mouth?

and...

This kind of unspoken rule...

Is it really a good idea to involve your own niece?

"what happened?"

Li Shengmin noticed Ding Xin's unusual expression, and with a hint of confusion in his eyes, he asked in surprise, "Could it be that Director Ding thinks my niece is not a suitable candidate?"

"No, of course it's suitable!"

Ding Xin gently shook his head, clearing his mind of the jumbled thoughts, and uttered a flattering remark: "Miss Li Yanzhen is the most outstanding recent graduate I have ever seen. I believe that with her joining the foundation, it will surely shine even more brightly!"

"That's great!"

Li Shengmin smiled with satisfaction, patted the documents in his hand, and said with a smile, "Give me this document to take back. I'll have that girl sign it as soon as possible!"

Once the decision was made, the deputy minister was quite decisive!

"it is good!"

Ding Xin smiled and nodded.

then...

He turned to look at Cui Zhongshi, who had been silent all along, a slight smile playing on his lips, and asked directly, "Minister Cui, what about you? Do you have any suitable candidates to recommend?"

It's very straightforward!

They didn't even bother to ask if there was a problem with the proposal in his hand!

"As for the candidates..."

Cui Zhongshi pursed his lips, raised his head, and met Ding Xin's gaze for a moment.

He then turned to look at Li Shengmin and Zhu Yang, who were also staring at him.

Do I have any choice?

After a moment of silence...

He took a deep breath, calmed himself, and said softly, "Of course, I also have a good candidate on my side, but I don't know if they meet Director Ding's requirements..."

"Of course it's appropriate!"

Ding Xin didn't even ask who it was. As he slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, he said meaningfully, "Let me reiterate, our foundation is eager to find talented people!"

"What a thirst for talent!"

Li Shengmin clapped his hands and laughed loudly, then raised his wine glass and called out, "Come on, let's all toast to Director Ding, and also to 'the thirst for talent'!"

Tsk tsk tsk...

No wonder he was able to become a vice minister!

in place!

Ding Xin raised an eyebrow, raised his glass as well, and said politely, "Thank you for the invitation, Vice Minister Li. Cheers!"

"cheers!"

"cheers!"

"cheers!"

The atmosphere has reached this point...

Zhu Yang, Wu Xiuyan, and even Cui Zhongshi all raised their glasses...

Seeing that the important matters had been discussed and the atmosphere was harmonious.

Suddenly, there was another knocking sound at the door.

Everyone was puzzled...

Wu Xiuyan explained with a smile, "It's a little surprise I prepared for everyone!"

Having said that...

She clapped her hands gently.

next second...

The door to the private room was opened, and a group of beautiful women dressed in gorgeous traditional Korean hanbok walked in.

Um...

It's traditional enough, but also revealing enough!

Wu Xiuyan casually turned on the stereo in the private room, and accompanied by a melodious and cheerful tune, these beauties started dancing a traditional South Korean court dance to the beat.

Fortunately, the private room was big enough for them to do as they pleased.

Ding Xin wasn't interested in this at all; he didn't see anything appealing about it and found it rather boring...

But those three prosecutors...

They watched with rapt attention, nodding and swaying their heads, completely absorbed.

can only say...

These South Koreans are truly fascinated by their own traditions.

As the music ended and the dance concluded, the banquet came to a close.

Actually...

These female dancers are more than just dancers, but it seems the three prosecutors weren't interested, so they gave up.

The group walked out of the restaurant...

After watching Li Shengmin and Cui Zhongshi leave in the same car, Ding Xin called out to Zhu Yang.

He might have drunk a bit too much.

With that cold wind blowing like that, I felt a little unsteady on my feet...

"Here, Brother Zhu, take this one back for your wife!"

Ding Xin pulled a new foundation document from Wu Xiuyan's handbag and stuffed it into Zhu Yang's arms.

"How could I possibly accept this? Even the Deputy Minister only has one copy..."

Zhu Yang's tone was slightly drunk. He tried to refuse, but lost his balance due to excessive force and almost fell.

"Why are you being so polite with me? Besides, can you even be compared to them?"

Ding Xin feigned annoyance as he helped him steady, then beckoned to a nearby henchman, saying, "You drive my car and take Prosecutor Zhu home safely, understand?"

"Yes, brother, don't worry!"

The younger brother solemnly responded, and then helped the increasingly drunk Zhu Yang into the car...

......

Chapter 538 Cui Zhongshi's Doubts

late at night.

The number of vehicles on the road was sparse.

The black limousine carrying Li Shengmin and Cui Zhongshi drove smoothly down the road...

Inside the car at this moment...

A faint smell of alcohol permeated the air...

Although not strong...

But the combination of leather and tobacco creates a somewhat oppressive feeling!

The driver in the driver's seat kept a steady grip on the steering wheel...

Focus on the road ahead.

Li Shengmin and Cui Zhongshi sat side by side in the back seat of the car, remaining silent.

Compared to Zhu Yang...

The two of them did not appear to have drunk too much; they were just slightly tipsy.

Li Shengmin narrowed his eyes slightly...

Gazing at the rapidly receding scenery outside the window, a strange sense of daze lingered in his eyes, as if he were lost in some kind of reverie.

Cui Zhongshi, meanwhile, was looking down at the documents in his hands...

Occasionally, he would raise his head...

She glanced at the man beside her out of the corner of her eye.

Outside the car...

The streetlights shone through the car windows, casting dappled shadows on them.
