Shen Wang is here again?

Gao Xiaoqin's heart skipped a beat. She exchanged a glance with Qi Tongwei, picked up the walkie-talkie, and immediately pressed for an answer:

"Where are you? How many people are there?"

"At Tingtao Pavilion! There are quite a few people, it looks like a family gathering, with both the elderly and the young, probably a dozen or so people."

Tingtao Pavilion?

Gao Xiaoqin immediately got up, walked quickly to the monitoring screen, and pulled up the live monitoring footage of the "Tingtao Pavilion" private room.

In the high-definition footage, glasses clinked and the atmosphere was lively and bustling.

A large round table was packed with people, young and old, men and women.

Gao Xiaoqin's sharp gaze swept quickly across the area, and soon matched it with the information she had seen when investigating Shen Wang's background.

Isn't this Shen Wang's family?

There was a young man involved, who was also one of the parties involved in the bar conflict!

Clearly, this was both a family dinner and a victory celebration!

"Snapped!"

Qi Tongwei gently placed the wine glass in his hand on the table, making a crisp sound.

His expression instantly turned somewhat unpleasant.

They bullied my underlings and then celebrated on my turf?

This was like slapping him repeatedly across the face!

Do you really think my knife isn't sharp enough, or that I'm too good-natured?

Gao Xiaoqin's face also darkened instantly, her eyebrows furrowing.

If it were just Shen Wang bringing friends over for dinner, she would be happy to provide the best service.

But this whole family in front of me...

This is outrageous!

She turned to look at Qi Tongwei, her voice turning cold: "Director, they've gone too far! What do we do now?"

Qi Tongwei's chest heaved a few times, he closed his eyes, and took a deep breath.

When he opened his eyes again, a smile had appeared on his face.

He can cry on cue and laugh on cue – that's Qi Tongwei.

"Xiaoqin, didn't you just say you were going to treat Shen Wang to dinner?"

Gao Xiaoqin was taken aback: "What does the director mean...?"

"Isn't now a perfect opportunity?"

Qi Tongwei stood up and straightened his expensive but understated shirt.

"They're hosting a family dinner here, so as the hosts, wouldn't it be perfect for us to go over and offer a toast to express our congratulations and welcome?"

Gao Xiaoqin was taken aback, her beautiful eyes widening: "Director, you...you're going to personally offer the toast? This...shouldn't I go instead? Given your status..."

She couldn't bear it, and she also felt it wasn't worth it.

Who is Qi Tongwei?

The Director of the Public Security Bureau of Handong Province is a powerful figure!

Who are the others at that table in the private room, except for Shen Wang who might be a little special?

A bunch of bumpkins, do they even deserve to have Qi Tongwei toast them?

Qi Tongwei shook his head.

If it weren't for what happened at the entrance of the Provincial Party Committee compound yesterday, he would have been considered good-tempered if he hadn't even kicked these people out, let alone offered them a toast.

But now...

Qi Tongwei walked to the wine cabinet, personally selected a bottle of red wine of excellent vintage and considerable value, and weighed it in his hand:

"What's a few toasts and a few nice words compared to my position as a vice-provincial level official?"

"You have to give up your pride when the time comes."

"Besides, this wine is for Shen Wang, not for his relatives."

Gao Xiaoqin looked at Qi Tongwei, her heart filled with mixed feelings.

I admire his ability to be flexible and adaptable, but I also feel a little frustrated for him.

"Director, I'll go with you!"

Soon, the two were ready.

Carrying the bottle of fine wine, Gao Xiaoqin personally led the way to Tingtao Pavilion.

At this moment, the atmosphere inside Tingtao Pavilion was reaching its climax.

My uncle and several aunts were flushed with drink, playing drinking games and shouting toasts.

The women gathered together, chatting about everyday matters, their conversation revolving around praising Zhou Ming for his success.

Zhou Ming had become the center of attention, enjoying the feeling of being the center of attention.

Shen Wang remained seated in the corner, lost in thought, pondering how to slip away later.

Suddenly, the tightly closed door to the private room was gently pushed open.

The once noisy room seemed to have been muted, with laughter and toasts coming to an abrupt halt.

All eyes turned to the doorway.

A young woman with outstanding temperament and a beautiful appearance like a star walked in first with a smile.

Behind her followed a middle-aged man with a tall, upright figure, a dignified face, and a natural air of authority despite his smile.

The relatives were all stunned and looked at each other blankly.

Who is this?

Did you go to the wrong room?

Judging from his demeanor and attire, and the subtle aura emanating from him, he's definitely not an ordinary person.

My uncle held his wine glass, mouth agape, and for a moment forgot to put it down.

Zhou Ming also subconsciously raised his head, and when he saw Gao Xiaoqin and Qi Tongwei, he immediately stood up.

As a nominal probationary disciple of the Han Da Gang, how could he not recognize the deputy gang leader and his mistress?

"President Gao...President Gao! Director Qi...Director Qi!"

Zhou Ming was stuttering, and his voice even trembled noticeably.

His words completely stunned his relatives.

"General Manager Gao? Director Qi?"

The relatives were taken aback at first, and then suddenly realized something.

Ms. Gao from Shanshui Group? That legendary beautiful CEO?

Director Qi? Could it be...?

My goodness!

No further explanation is needed; these two titles alone are enough to make all the ordinary people present feel dizzy and suffocated.

People of this caliber are simply figures who live in the news and are unattainable to them!

How did they end up here?

Immediately afterwards, everyone's gaze shifted from the couple at the door to Zhou Ming, who was so excited he didn't know what to do.

No one spoke, but their inner thoughts were incredibly complex.

"Oh my god! Could they be after the Ming Dynasty?"

"Could the Ming Dynasty truly be a direct descendant of the Han Dynasty?"

"This is incredible! This is such a huge show of power! Our ancestors' graves are emitting auspicious smoke!"

The relatives' previous praise of Zhou Ming certainly contained an element of exaggeration.

Zhou Ming is just a university counselor. At most, he knows a lot of people. How could he possibly be a member of the Han University clique?

But the appearance of Qi Tongwei and Gao Xiaoqin instantly confirmed that Zhou Ming was a direct descendant of the Han University gang!

They are even highly valued!

Thinking of this, the relatives all trembled!

The elders' faces were filled with excitement and pride, and they looked at Zhou Ming as if he were a rising political star.

Several of the younger cousins ​​looked at Zhou Ming with shining eyes and boundless admiration.

Having such an awesome cousin, wouldn't I be...

Zhou Ming himself was also in a state of immense, unreal dizziness and ecstasy.

His heart was pounding, and his palms were sweaty.

How did Director Qi and General Manager Gao know I was eating here? And why did they come over in person?

Could it be... could it be that my recent outstanding work performance has caught Director Qi's eye?

He didn't have time to delve into the reasons; he was overwhelmed by a tremendous sense of honor and excitement at being recognized.

He quickly picked up his glass of wine, put on the most respectful and enthusiastic smile, and stammered as he stepped forward:

"Director Qi...Director Gao, what brings you two here?"

"This is...this is such a surprise, such an honor! I...I toast to both of you..."

However, what happened next instantly froze the excited and eager smile on Zhou Ming's face.

Qi Tongwei and Gao Xiaoqin glanced at Zhou Ming, who was approaching, with almost complete indifference.

Then he went straight to the innermost part of the private room, to that quiet corner that had always been overlooked...
