Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 1009: Chapter 109: This time, I win!

Grand Affairs Officer Shen Peisheng and Xiahou Qi arrived, stunning the queue of Affairs Officers at the scene.

One was a ”mentor” among the Senior Affairs Officers, and the other was the President of Zhenbei Group, Greater China Region!

To think they came in person!

Were they also here to see the results?

That would mean the rumors were indeed true, there was no need to wait until noon.

The Candidate Great Affairs Officer could be decided this morning!

”Elder Xia!” ”President!”

”Sir Shen!” ”Sir Shen!”

Everyone greeted Xiahou Qi and Shen Peisheng in turn, respectfully.

”President!” In front of everyone, Shen Peisheng also smiled and greeted Xiahou Qi.

”Peisheng!” Xiahou Qi smiled and then glanced around, ”It’s quite lively here. Look, there’s even a line.”

”Indeed.” Shen Peisheng smiled.

He had come without avoiding suspicion, actually at the invitation of Xiahou Qi through a phone call.

The long queue forming here naturally didn’t escape Xiahou Qi’s eyes.

There was usually a meeting on Monday afternoon, so the morning was relatively free.

Thus, Xiahou Qi brought Shen Peisheng to see the results.

”There are seats over there, let’s sit and wait.” Xiahou Qi pointed to the side of the corridor.

There was a resting area by the window complete with sofas and coffee tables.

”Okay.” Shen Peisheng smiled.

Just as the two were about to move, the door to Zheng Honghu’s office opened, and Zheng Honghu himself came out to meet them.

”Elder Xia, Sir Shen!” Zheng Honghu smiled, ”You’ve both arrived. Please, come sit in my office.”

This invitation was declined by Xiahou Qi with a shake of his head.

”No need, Honghu. Today you’re the ’examiner,’ and we are just observers. Over there is enough. Oh, and bring us two cups of tea.” Xiahou Qi walked towards the resting area with his hands behind his back.

”Let’s do as Elder Xia says,” Shen Peisheng said with a smile.

Afterwards, Shen Peisheng deliberately looked at Lin Yu beside him, ”Officer Lin, I see that you seem quite confident.”

”Yes, Sir Shen, I’ve found some new materials that have greatly benefited my current work and have been a big help! This time, I think, I can achieve some pretty good results!” Lin Yu was brimming with confidence.

”That’s good, that’s good. Don’t let down Mr. Xia’s expectations!” Shen Peisheng said with a smile, purposely patting Lin Yu’s shoulder, before turning to head straight to the resting area to join Xiahou Qi.

Shen Peisheng’s actions made the surrounding people’s eyes suddenly narrow.

Although Grand Affairs Officer Shen Peisheng and Officer Lin Yu had a mentor-mentee relationship, it was rare to openly show support on such a significant occasion as today.

Grand Affairs Officer Shen Peisheng wasn’t afraid of giving others something to talk about, and Officer Lin Yu was full of confidence.

This could only prove that both of them were very confident in Officer Lin Yu’s successful promotion.

Many people suddenly felt discouraged.

Zheng Honghu saw everything, his eyes flickering uncertainly.

This scene was for others to see, but was it not also for himself to watch?

Perhaps Grand Affairs Officer Shen Peisheng was silently signaling to him!

Immediately, Zheng Honghu smiled at Lin Yu, his attitude even surpassing his towards Bai Xiaosheng, ”Officer Lin, please wait a little longer. I will speed up the process, and it will soon be your turn.”

”I’m not in a rush. Thank you for your hard work, Great Official Zheng Honghu.” Lin Yu watched this unfold with a modest smile.

Neither arrogant nor proud, that’s good.

Zheng Honghu smiled and turned back.

There, Xiahou Qi sat down and watched Shen Peisheng sit on the other side.

”Peisheng, it seems you think highly of Officer Lin Yu,” Xiahou Qi commented, not seeming to mind the previous matter.

”After all, he’s my student, so I may know a bit more about him. This child has always grown under your guidance, and the title of ’benchmark of the Affairs Department’ was also personally bestowed by you, wasn’t it?” Shen Peisheng said with a smile.

Today, Xiahou Qi had invited him here, and if he were to act overly precise, it would seem odd; it was better to show a bit of personal bias with just the right measure.

Even Xiahou Qi had nothing to say against it.

”Originally just a word of praise, but it increasingly fits the reality. Lin Yu truly deserves the title of ’benchmark of the Affairs Officers’!” Xiahou Qi stated.

After that, he looked around, ”Huh, where is Officer Bai Xiaosheng? Did he perhaps go in first?”

Grand Affairs Officer Shen Peisheng also looked around, his expression unchanged, ”Perhaps. I didn’t expect him to come even earlier!”

”Elder Xia, Sir Shen. Officer Bai Xiaosheng is indeed in Great Official Zheng Honghu’s office, the first one today, but not the earliest, he’s at the front of the line.”

Yu Chang, who came to serve tea, laughed upon hearing the conversation between the two.

”Great Official Zheng Honghu is back in Linshen, and Officer Bai Xiaosheng went to pick him up, which is why he was the first to submit his documents, the first to enter,” Yu Chang revealed the truth.

”Oh?!”

Xiahou Qi and Shen Peisheng both were taken aback.

”Haha, what a sly one!” Xiahou Qi couldn’t help laughing.

Shen Peisheng also laughed, but within his smile, there was a barely noticeable sigh.

What a kid, playing his cards unorthodoxly!

Inside the affairs department, Great Official Zheng Honghu started the review, scoring, selecting the Candidate Great Affairs Officer.

Outside the door, a line of competing affairs officers formed, and in the end, even Xiahou Qi and Shen Peisheng arrived.

This news spread, and the corridor on both sides was also crowded with onlookers.

As for these people, Xiahou Qi and Shen Peisheng did not drive them away or scold them, adopting an attitude of letting it be.

After all, the birth of the Candidate Great Affairs Officer was also quite an event.

There needed to be witnesses.

Such tacit approval led to more and more onlookers, some even moving closer, wanting to get a clearer view.

Behind the crowd, Yu Ying was also there.

Yu Ying, with her big eyes wide open, stood on tiptoe with excitement, seemingly no different from the group of women her age beside her.

However, in her eyes, there flickered a light of ambiguous meaning.

In this round, was the winner Lin Yu?

Then, was she to be the one to make contact next!

Officer Bai Xiaosheng and his group spent a full twenty minutes in Zheng Honghu’s office.

And then the door opened, Bai Xiaosheng came out with Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying.

As for Li Qiushan and others, they did not follow.

Seeing so many people outside, they were also startled.

But Bai Xiaosheng, with his sharp eyes, saw Xiahou Qi and Shen Peisheng sitting there and decided to go meet the two.

Walking past Lin Yu, Bai Xiaosheng’s expression seemed somewhat downcast, barely smiling at Lin Yu, ”It’s your turn, Officer Lin Yu!”

Lin Yu nodded, giving Bai Xiaosheng a deep look.

Bai Xiaosheng’s reaction made him feel like laughing.

Surely it was because Li Qiushan and the others had no evidence, causing Lu Zhixin and Zhao Beiqing to deny everything.

Lin Yu nodded and entered Zheng Honghu’s office.

Zheng Honghu’s office was a large suite, and he was actually in the outer room, still frowning as if he had encountered a problem.

The inner room was silent.

”Bai Xiaosheng’s situation is a bit tricky, so they are busy inside; I’ve come outside to work, to receive you first. No problem with that, right?” Zheng Honghu gave Lin Yu a forced smile.

A bottleneck in evidence, huh!

Lin Yu sneered inwardly.

Lin Yu remained calm on the surface, taking out his evidence and handing it over.

Zheng Honghu took the materials and only flipped through two pages when his eyes suddenly narrowed, he looked at Lin Yu in disbelief and then quickly continued reading.

”This!” Zheng Honghu exclaimed.

”These pieces of evidence, I happened to get them from a journalist friend...” Lin Yu explained.

”Officer Lin Yu, please wait outside for a moment, I will go verify them immediately—your timing couldn’t be more perfect!” Zheng Honghu said.

Wait outside?

Lin Yu was a bit reluctant.

”Don’t worry, if the credit is yours, it will surely be yours. Everything is recorded inside!” Zheng Honghu reassured.

Only then did Lin Yu go out, but not without seeing Zheng Honghu’s impatient and excited demeanor.

Lin Yu was happy.

”Bai Xiaosheng, this time, I win!”
