District 9

After Qin Yu left the hotel, he went to find Wu Di alone. The two chatted in the car for more than half an hour and reached a certain consensus.

…

On the morning of the next day, Qin Yu and Feng Yunian went to the police station together and had a formal lunch with the police chief. There were no important topics discussed during the banquet, but word spread below that Qin Yu's official appointment as director of the department was likely to be announced within the next few days.

Half past eight in the evening.

Qin Yu called Lao Mao and Ma Laoer, went to the restaurant where Ye Lin had dinner last night, and began to wait for Lu Weide's arrival.

"Why don't you look so good lately?" Qin Yu looked at the old cat with dark circles around his eyes and asked casually.

"Rest... not very good..." The old cat looked a little tired, his face was sallow, and there was a little bit of gum in his eyes.

"What's wrong? What big case has your team had recently?" Ma Laoer asked softly.

"Alas." Old Mao said with a long sigh while holding a cigarette: "It's not about work, it's just that Xiaomi and I have encountered some problems recently."

Qin Yu was shocked when he heard the sound: "You and Xiaomi are together?!"

"Well, I finally got her." The old cat nodded slightly proudly.

Xiaomi is also a reporter for an online broadcast station. She used to be colleagues with Lin Nianlei. The two had a very good relationship, so for a period of time, she often had contact with Qin Yu and others. Over time, when the old cat saw how energetic the little girl looked, he began to feel slutty. But after pursuing for a period of time with no results, Qin Yu thought that the two of them couldn't make it.

But I didn't expect that after not coming back for two years, the old cat had already captured him.

"...Don't you and she get along very well? What problems have you encountered?" Ma Laoer asked.

"She was always afraid that I would be messing around outside, so she made me hand in my fucking homework every day... I could still hold on at the beginning because I had a huge demand in this area. But as time went by, my production couldn't keep up with the shipment. My body obviously can't stand it anymore." Lao Mao talked to Qin Yu and others about everything, and complained in a slightly excited mood: "She used to touch me and I would get hard, but now she touches me and my hair will... Everyone is getting up!"

"Hahaha!" Qin Yu burst into laughter upon hearing this: "Is it that exaggerated?"

"I lied to you that I was my grandson. During this period of time, I have had ringing in my ears from time to time." The old cat said with a very serious face: "There is really no drop left for me. I can't even squeeze it out."

"Ha ha!"

Ma Laoer also laughed: "That's how I have to deal with you!"

"Let me tell you, Xiaomi is a good girl. If you want to scum her, you will be struck by lightning." Qin Yu thinks that Xiaomi is a good girl. She has a good job, family background, and good character. He also hopes that Lao Mao can stabilize. , looking for a marriage partner, so he started to kidnap him morally.

"Stop being so pushy." The old cat rolled his eyes and scolded: "When Hanhan slowly starts to take care of you, you will know my pain."

"She's okay, she's quite relieved about me." Qin Yu replied proudly.

"That's because she didn't spare any time." The old cat curled his lips and asked gossipingly: "Hey, if you two are together, who has the greater needs?"

"Go away, what does this have to do with you?"

"Look, let's talk. Is there anything we can't say?"

"...!" Qin Yu thought for a moment and said seriously: "I am older."

"You're not big," Ma Laoer immediately retorted after hearing this, "You and Lao Mao are both little earthworms."

"Get out of here, uncle." Qin Yu refused.

"Ha ha!"

The three of them looked at each other and smiled.

However, Ma Laoer said this with some capital, and it fits his nickname. Because Lao Mao always calls him affectionately in private, Ma Lao Donkey.

The three bad friends had not talked like this without thinking about anything for a long time, so Qin Yu was very happy. He always felt that he was in Songjiang, and he felt at home with these friends.

After chatting for a while, Lu Weide arrived with his assistant, more than half an hour late.

Lu Weide is forty-three years old this year. He is more than a full round older than Qin Yu, but he is well-maintained. He has a small parted hair, casual clothes, fair skin, and gold-rimmed glasses. He looks... It's like being in the fashion circle, very fashionable.

This person pays great attention to appearance. According to people in the company, he spent 70,000 to 80,000 yuan a year on hair transplantation alone. He can be said to be a representative of the elite.

"Come on, Mr. Lu, sit here." Qin Yu stood up politely and asked him to sit next to him.

"Sorry, there were some communication problems with some customers, so I came late." Lu Weide nodded to everyone, bent down and sat next to Qin Yu.

"It's okay, we just arrived." Qin Yu raised his head and greeted the waiter: "Come on, let's serve the food."

"Okay, sir." The waiter responded and immediately took the walkie-talkie to call for food.

Everyone sat facing each other, Lu Weide flicked the extremely niche watch on his wrist, and asked Qin Yu with a slightly reserved smile: "How are you, are you still used to living in Nanhu...?"

"It's not bad. The environment there is much better than Songjiang, but I just don't feel like home..." Qin Yu has been in contact with many senior officials and people within the system in Nanhu in the past two years. He has already developed the ability to talk to people and tell ghosts, so he has adapted to this kind of business banquet with a clear purpose.

When Qin Yu and Lu Weide were chatting, Lao Mao glanced at the man secretly. He found that although Lu Weide had always been polite, he had a sense of arrogance in his bones. This feeling is hard to describe, just like when you wear cheap clothes and go to a luxury store to buy something, the clerk will treat you warmly, but you can obviously feel the distance.

After the food and wine were served, everyone started drinking, but the conversation was still just formal talk and clichés, and nothing substantive was discussed at all.

It wasn't until Qin Yu felt that Lu Weide was a little mature that he got to the point: "Hey, Mr. Lu, there's something I have to ask you."

"Say." Lu Weide smiled and nodded.

"I just came back. I heard that you and Keke are not happy at work?" Qin Yu asked softly.

"Haha." Lu Weide smiled: "She also complained to you?"

"No, we just talked about it when we were chatting." Qin Yu stretched out his hand to push away the wine glass and said politely: "Keke has contributed the most to the establishment of this pharmaceutical factory, and she is also a woman..."

"Mr. Qin, this is wrong." Lu Weide interrupted.

Qin Yu looked at him and said nothing.

"There are no distinctions between men and women in the workplace, only those who are capable or incapable." Lu Weide said in a soft but very strong tone: "It's not that we have a conflict, it's her ability that sometimes can't keep up with the group. train of thought. I didn’t target her, I just discussed the matter as it happened.”

Lao Mao looked at Lu Weide and asked unhappily: "Isn't this a bit big? The preparations for the establishment of the pharmaceutical factory were basically completed by Coco. It took her less than a year to complete such a large project. Do you want to If she is said to be incapable, then the company will not have anyone capable of doing the job."

Lu Weide glanced at Old Mao: "You don't quite understand. Building a pharmaceutical factory and operating a pharmaceutical factory are two different things."
