Chapter 566: Chapter 566: Reunion with an Old Friend, Nervous Near Ho
A phone call from Song Baiyan caused a stir among the officials in Shangbu.
His Excellency was traveling abroad, and his sudden inquiry about Ren Zhengxiong even led so to speculate, could it be that Ren Zhengxiong was involved in diplomatic affairs?
Ren Zhengxiong himself was also confused. After receiving a call from the mayor, he didn’t dare to delay any longer, and packed up his things to go to the Public Security Departnt overnight.
After making the phone call, Song Baiyan did not contact Tang Li again.
If Tang Li wanted his help, she would not have failed to ntion it during the call.
Since she didn’t ntion it, it must be that she didn’t want him to intervene.
Tang Li using his na to go to the Public Security Departnt would make things easy, but it could also bring a lot of trouble.
Now, like this—
Giving a heads-up by phone, and letting her handle the rest by herself, was the best arrangent.
As for himself, he would pretend he knew nothing.
The next day, Tang Li got up early again.
She had breakfast at the hotel and then went to wait at the Public Security Departnt.
The gatekeeper already recognized her, and as Tang Li approached, he took the initiative to inform her: “The chief ca back last night and has been inside without leaving.”
While speaking, he handed Tang Li the entry registration log.
Tang Li wrote down her na and ID number, then looked up and asked the gatekeeper, “Will they let see the chief if I go in like this?”
Ren Zhengxiong was the top official of the Public Security Departnt, not soone who could be seen whenever one wished.
“How could they not let you.” The gatekeeper took back the logbook. “You count as a public visit; the chief will definitely see you.” He pointed towards the building straight ahead, urging her, “The chief’s office is on the third floor. Go up now while the chief is still there.”
Tang Li felt that things were going too smoothly, which was sowhat abnormal.
She went up to the third floor and found the chief’s office.
Thinking that the other party was an old acquaintance of Tang Yin, Tang Li hesitated with a sense of trepidation as she approached her destination.
After a while, she raised her hand and knocked on the door.
“Co in.” The voice of a middle-aged man ca from inside.
Tang Li pushed the door open and saw not only Ren Zhengxiong but also Han Jifeng.
Han Jifeng and Ren Zhengxiong were sitting in the sofa area.
The two n seed to be talking, and when the office door opened, they both turned their heads to look over.
Tang Li, seeing Han Jifeng, had a guess in her heart—her smooth entry into the Public Security Departnt was likely related to him.
Even so, Tang Li’s emotions showed no disturbance.
Ren Zhengxiong was also a man in his early fifties.
Even though he was of the sa age as Lai Wenyan, he looked significantly older and did not have the sa sense of vitality as Lai Wenyan; while both had a special forces background, Lai Wenyan beca more like a civil official after becoming a councilman, whereas Ren Zhengxiong, at a glance, could be easily identified as soone from the military or police forces.
“Are you Tang Li?” Ren Zhengxiong broke the silence.
His gaze on Tang Li contained no curiosity or surprise, but warmth and friendliness, as if he had long expected the daughter of Tang Yin to co by today.
Tang Li knew that Han Jifeng must have ntioned sothing to him.
Han Jifeng being here already explained it well.
“You two talk.” Standing up, Han Jifeng said, “I have so other matters to attend to, so I’ll be leaving first.”
As Han Jifeng passed by her, Tang Li did not shift her gaze towards him.
In her view, even if Han Jifeng did not intervene, as long as Ren Zhengxiong was in the Public Security Departnt, she would find a way to see him.
Perhaps it would be a bit troubleso, but she would definitely achieve her goal.
Now that Han Jifeng had inford Ren Zhengxiong of her identity, Tang Li sat opposite Ren Zhengxiong, but she didn’t know what to use as an opening remark.
After a while, Ren Zhengxiong spoke first: “I’ve been in Shangbu for the past few years; I wasn’t aware that you had returned to the Lai Family.”
