Song Xiaodong rely said she was his woman, and that's enough to make these leaders treat her this way. If Song Xiaodong were standing here, imagine what their attitude would be like.
"Director Qiao, we've been blind to the obvious, and have done sothing this outrageous. I know Director Qiao must be upset. This is a small token of my intention. Please accept it, Director Qiao."
Chief Chen took out a small red box and handed it to Qiao Yutong, opening it at the sa ti to reveal a bracelet of pure green jade inside.
Although Qiao Yutong wasn't particularly fond of jewelry, upon seeing the bracelet, she realized it was jadeite. Considering the skyrocketing prices of jadeite nowadays, this bracelet might exceed a million.
Her lips twitched briefly as Qiao Yutong shook her head and said, "I don't want your things."
Director Chen hurriedly said, "Director Qiao, this is truly a small token from . I was too rushed to prepare properly. I will definitely prepare a better gift next ti. Please accept it, Director Qiao."
Director Li interjected, "Director Qiao, I don't see any major consequences arising from this matter. We're all part of the sa system, and often see each other, so how about I play the diator? Let's turn big issues into small ones and small ones into trifles. Just don't pursue it further?"
Before, if a superior said this, Qiao Yutong would have had to comply. But now, she took a deep breath and said, "Director Li, if this happened to soone else but not , would they just have to endure the grievances?"
"Well..." Director Li was montarily speechless.
Director Chen and the two deputy directors' faces changed. Was Qiao Yutong unwilling to let this go?
Qiao Yutong glanced at them and slowly said, "In this matter, although I wasn't seriously hard, it has given
a very bad perception of power. When power isn't caged, such matters will happen repeatedly. I won't comnt on this matter. However you wish to handle it is up to you."
After saying this, Qiao Yutong left, leaving the leaders staring at each other.
If Qiao Yutong had explicitly stated her thoughts, they could handle it better. But instead, she gave them such a statent, causing them quite a headache.
Yet the matter couldn't be ignored; if Song Xiaodong beca unhappy, handling it would no longer be just their issue, it might turn into a major scandal.
Despite the trouble it brought, Qiao Yutong had set her stance, so all they could do was face the challenge head-on.
The two deputy directors were imdiately demoted one level, and Director Chen was also demoted.
Most notably, Qiao Yutong was directly promoted to the deputy director position, taking Deputy Director Wang's spot.
Regarding such personnel changes, even if Qiao Yutong didn't agree, she had no choice but to take on the deputy director role.
Following the personnel adjustnts, the entire Minghe public security system got to know Qiao Yutong; they understood that she had imnse backing, significantly tied to the Su Family.
There were also rumors that Qiao Yutong was Song Xiaodong's woman. After all, Patriarch of the Su Family Song Xiaodong's reputation for being a womanizer was already widespread.
But so what? No one dared to speak openly, or even secretly gossip, as everyone now wished to establish connections with the Su Family. If loose talks reached Qiao Yutong or the Su Family, their future career would be ruined.
So even if people thought it privately, no one dared to say it aloud. Moreover, many envied her; despite Song Xiaodong's womanizing reputation, not everyone was qualified to interact with him. Even won from prestigious families found it exceedingly difficult to approach Song Xiaodong.
Additionally, Qiao Yutong discovered a significant advantage—now, whatever she intended to do went very smoothly. As a cop with ambitions, as long as it facilitated her work, she didn't mind others' opinions.
Song Xiaodong didn't involve himself further in the matter. After he stated his position, no one in Minghe dared to neglect the issue. Even Chief Chen, the Chen Family of the Capital, had to acknowledge.
The Su Family was currently hosting two high-profile figures: Yang Yushi and Chu Xianling.
The two arrived just in ti for dinner, so Song Xiaodong invited them to dine at his ho.
Song Xiaodong didn't treat them as outsiders, opting directly for a family dinner style, with a crowd of won from his household accompanying the two talented won from Beijing.
Yang Yushi and Chu Xianling were aware of Song Xiaodong's nurous won, but when the entire family gathered, it was visually overwhelming and dazzling.
And the won seeing them felt sowhat strange.
The appearance of these two was superior to most in the household. Coupled with their talents, it inevitably made others feel inferior.
Especially Miao Qingqing, Sun Ziyun, and Shui Qingyue, who had long admired Yang Yushi, even idolizing her. Despite already having t, seeing her again evoked a sense of reverence.
