After hanging up the phone, Qin Mu stood up from the stone by the roadside, ready to leave.
Since he couldn't change the outcome, he would face it.
Having been in the military for a long time, Qin Mu also wanted to live a normal life; becoming a leisurely civil servant in Huaining County wasn't so bad.
He had only walked two steps when he suddenly saw Fang Ailan walk out of the hotel and wave towards the road.
Is she waving at me?
Qin Mu was stunned and was about to turn and leave when he saw a young man wearing glasses on the road, holding a bouquet of flowers, quickly pass in front of Qin Mu and rush to Fang Ailan, even directly kneeling on the ground.
"Ai Lan, you finally agreed to my pursuit!"
"From now on, I will be your knight, protecting you!"
...
Such a heartfelt confession shocked Qin Mu.
Oh my goodness...
Fang Ailan is so good at this?
She was just intimate with him in the hotel, broke up, and then immediately accepted another man's pursuit?
That speed is really fast!
It seems Fang Ailan had already found her next partner; she didn't say anything when they met today, waiting until after they had been intimate and her needs were satisfied before breaking up.
This woman is truly calculating!
While he was dazed, Fang Ailan and her new partner had already walked over; when they passed Qin Mu, he thought it was over, but Fang Ailan initiative called out to Qin Mu.
"Qin Mu, what a coincidence, you're here too?"
Fang Ailan greeted Qin Mu as if nothing had happened.
"Indeed, it's quite a coincidence."
Qin Mu nodded slightly in response. He truly hadn't realized that Fang Ailan was such a skilled actress; she had just been incredibly intimate with him in the hotel, and now she was pretending they had just met by chance.
No wonder they say a woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea!
It's truly unfathomable!
"Let me introduce you, this is my boyfriend Gu Lin; he is a clerk in the County Government Office in Huaining County and has already been promoted to Deputy Section Chief."
Fang Ailan seemed to be showing off, deliberately highlighting Gu Lin's identity in front of Qin Mu.
County Government Office!
Deputy Section Chief level!
Anyone who knows a bit about government departments knows that the County Government Office is one of the most sought-after departments; it's close to the leaders, making promotions easier. Those who can enter the County Government Office are either the most outstanding or have connections.
As for the Deputy Section Chief level, it seems low, but Gu Lin looks only twenty-four or twenty-five. At this age, being promoted to Deputy Section Chief already surpasses ninety percent of his peers, indicating that Gu Lin is the type of person with connections.
"This is an old friend I knew a long time ago, Qin Mu; he's a soldier."
Fang Ailan, holding Gu Lin's arm, briefly introduced Qin Mu.
"Oh, I see!"
Gu Lin listened, extended his hand to Qin Mu, and said, "Since you're Ai Lan's friend, you're my friend too. If you transfer out of the military, you can come to our Huaining County; it's relatively easy to arrange a leisurely position for you."
Having connections is different; his first words were about arranging a job.
"Don't just arrange things randomly; Qin Mu is a soldier, it's fine for him to stay in the military."
Fang Ailan gently squeezed Gu Lin's arm and said, "His personality isn't suited for being an official!"
"Hahaha... then I'll take back what I said."
Gu Lin understood Fang Ailan's meaning and immediately said, "Brother Qin, we have something else to do, so we'll be leaving first!"
"Yes, we still have to go eat, goodbye."
Fang Ailan also said something and then quickly walked with Gu Lin towards the car by the roadside. She simply wanted to show off to Qin Mu that she had found a very excellent partner; she certainly didn't want to arrange Qin Mu to Huaining County.
If he was too close, and their secret was discovered, how could she use Gu Lin to help her get promoted later?
She had already decided that a man like Qin Mu, with no background or resources, was only suitable for occasional dates, keeping some distance so he wouldn't affect her political career.
How interesting!
Qin Mu looked at Gu Lin and Fang Ailan's retreating figures, feeling like laughing. Gu Lin clearly didn't know about Fang Ailan and his situation; he probably thought he had pursued a pure female university student!
However, that was no longer his concern. He had to report to the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department tomorrow, so he still needed to prepare.
As the direct grandson of the Qin Family, he couldn't disgrace his grandfather.
Qin Mu bought two slightly more formal outfits at the mall, then found a hotel to stay for the night and slept soundly.
The next morning, right after breakfast, he received a call from the Jiangzhou Municipal Party Committee Organization Department.
"Hello, may I speak with Comrade Qin Mu?"
As soon as he answered, a woman's voice came from the other end.
"Yes, I am Qin Mu. Who is this?"
Qin Mu asked.
"Comrade Qin Mu, I am Comrade Xu Lu, secretary of the Jiangzhou Municipal Party Committee Organization Department Office. I'm contacting you to ask if you can come to the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department Office at ten o'clock this morning. Minister Chen wants to see you to discuss your transfer and appointment!"
The woman on the other end immediately introduced herself and stated her purpose.
"No problem, I'll definitely be at the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department before ten o'clock."
Qin Mu agreed without hesitation, his tone firm.
"Okay, thank you for your cooperation. See you soon."
Comrade Xu Lu hung up the phone after saying that.
Qin Mu checked the time, returned to the hotel to change his clothes, took a taxi, and headed straight for the Jiangzhou Municipal Party Committee building.
"Young man, have you been hired as a security guard for the Municipal Party Committee building?"
As soon as he got in the car, the taxi driver kindly asked.
Huh?
Security guard for the Municipal Party Committee building?
Qin Mu was speechless after hearing that. Did his demeanor really resemble a security guard that much?
"Don't I look like an official?"
Qin Mu asked seriously.
"Hahaha..."
To his surprise, the taxi driver burst out laughing and said, "Your skin doesn't look like an official's! These days, which official isn't sitting in an air-conditioned room, eating and drinking well, and looking fair and tender? You, on the other hand, clearly look like a gatekeeper!"
This...
Qin Mu was instantly speechless!
He had been training in the military for a long time, so his skin was definitely much darker than most people's.
He just never expected that one day, his skin would become a sign that he didn't look like an official.
The car stopped in front of the Municipal Party Committee building. Qin Mu paid the fare and quickly walked inside.
"Excuse me, are you Comrade Qin Mu?"
As soon as he entered the lobby, a woman in a white shirt quickly approached him, smiling, and asked.
"You're the one who called just now... Comrade Xu Lu?"
Qin Mu immediately recognized her voice and asked in return.
"Yes, I am Comrade Xu Lu!"
"Hello!"
Qin Mu and Comrade Xu Lu greeted each other, shook hands, and then, led by Comrade Xu Lu, entered the elevator and headed towards the Municipal Party Committee Organization Department Office.
"Comrade Qin Mu, you are so young!"
In the elevator, Comrade Xu Lu said sincerely, "Congratulations, you're about to be entrusted with an important task. From now on, I'll have to call you 'leader'!"
Call me leader?
Qin Mu smiled and said, "I'm just a rough man. I just transferred out of the military; it would be good enough if I could get a leisurely job to support my family."
Leisurely job?
Comrade Xu Lu thought to herself, "Calling the position of County Chief a leisurely job, that's quite a boast!"
If it weren't for the confidentiality required in organizational work, preventing her from revealing it in advance, she really would have wanted to ask him if being a County Chief was only enough to support a family.
That was the number one figure in the County Government!
A position countless people dreamed of!
