After the roller skating incident, Song Sanhe was fired and went to Wanhu Company as deputy general manager. Shen Hua heard that Gao Xiaohu rarely showed up at Donghua University, but didn't expect to run into him today at Ying Huang International, and wondered if Gao Xiaohu still recognized him.

  Shen Huai also noticed the young man standing shoulder to shoulder with Gao Xiaohu, talking with an air of superiority. He saw that the youth had a large mole on his right cheek, was slightly younger than Gao Xiaohu, wore a suit and tie, and although he was not handsome, he had an extraordinary demeanor. Shen Huai thought to himself that this young man must be the honored guest at Gao Xiaohu's banquet today.

  Since Shen Hua distanced himself from Tan Qiping, the negative impact gradually emerged, and some messages from the top could not be grasped in time.

  Pan Shihua was transferred to Tangzhai District as the district head, and Shen Hui still learned about it in advance from Zhou Yu; he also only knew that Gao Xiaohu had been rarely seen in Donghua for a long time, but instead stayed in the provincial city to build relationships for his father Gao Tianhe. Shen Hui did not know which route Gao Tianhe and Gao Xiaohu took in the province, whether they had gotten close to any provincial leaders, nor what the background of this young man with a mole on his face was.

  The elevator seemed to be stuck on the sixth floor, waiting for something, and didn't come down for a long time. The people blocking the stairway entrance showed no intention of giving way. Gao Xiaohu and the youth with the birthmark were chatting intimately, while Yang Lili, Song Sanhe, and Gu Tong surrounded them, occasionally interjecting a sentence or two, seemingly completely unaware that someone was stuck on the stairs, unable to go up or down.

  If it's just a little while, endure it and it will pass. But the elevator didn't come down for a long time, and these people blocked the stairway without any intention of giving way. Even township officials have tempers.

  "Miss Yang..." He Qingci couldn't help but call out to Yang Lili, wanting to remind these people of their presence.

  Yang Lili looked up and glanced at Shen Hua's face, seemingly as if she had misheard something, or hadn't seen anything at all, before continuing to chat with the youth with a birthmark.

  "This little bitch, if she were in Hétáng, I would have slapped her twice already!" Yuán Hóngjūn couldn't bear it and scolded her, but he also knew that this group of elevator passengers was not weak, and it was clear that they were not people he could afford to offend. His angry shout was just loud enough for Shěn Huái to hear.

  Song Sanhe didn't have the same air as Gao Xiaohu and Gu Tong, who looked at others as if they were nothing. He couldn't help but look up and glance over Shen Hua's face, stunned for a moment, not expecting to block the stairs and run into this jinx.

  Shen Huai smiled and said loudly, "Director Song, you ran over to serve as a doorman for Young Master Gao, how come you still haven't learned the principle of tucking your tail and not blocking the way?"

  Shen Huai pointed at his face and scolded him as a dog. Song Sanhe, no matter how good his temper was, his face stiffened; At this time, Gu Tong and Zhou Dazui both looked up and recognized Shen Huai, their faces suddenly turned ugly.

  Gao Xiaohu also looked up, wanting to know who had the guts to scold Song Sanhe as a dog and even did it in front of his face.

  Yang Lili also looked over in surprise, never expecting that Shen Hua had worked at the municipal government before and didn't recognize Song Sanhe's companion as Mayor Gao's son, one of the four great young masters of Donghua, Gao Xiaohu.

  Yang Lili knew that Gao Xiaohu had a bad temper and was never one to suffer fools gladly, so if someone dared to scold his subordinate in front of him, it would definitely not be forgiven.

  She also disliked Shen Huan in her heart and wished that Gao Xiaohu could teach him a lesson, so she glanced at Shen Huan with a mixture of misfortune and delight, then turned her face away as if she didn't know him.

  This little wretch, Shen Huan began to have some dislike for Yang Lili. The two groups were both guests of the Emperor, and originally, if she had just said a word and turned around, there wouldn't have been any friction. But she insisted on pretending to be ignorant and standing there watching the show: indeed, the most venomous thing is a woman's heart.

  Gao Xiaohu's ferocious gaze, Shen Huai just looked at him as if he hadn't seen it, and smiled: "General Gao's way of looking at people is like wanting to eat someone up, hasn't Mayor Gao taught you the principle of being low-key?"

  Yang Lili couldn't help but raise her head in surprise and glance at Shen Hua: He obviously knew Gao Xiaohu, so how dare he speak like that? Didn't he know the word "death"?

  What made Yang Lili even more astonished was that although Gao Xiaohu's face was ashen and looked terrible, after Song Sanhe whispered a few words in his ear, his face contorted even more severely, but he endured it without exploding. Instead, he turned around and scolded the accompanying personnel who were blocking the stairs: "Get out of the way, don't block here like dog shit and lose face!"

  Gao Xiaohu is a frequent visitor to Ying Huang, and Yang Lili has never seen him swallow his temper for anyone?

  Shen Huai can actually make Gao Xiaohu swallow his anger?

  Yang Lili felt a little flustered in her heart. She had originally thought that Shen Hua had lost his power, so she wasn't afraid of offending him, but looking at the current situation, did Shen Hua look like someone who had lost his power?

  She didn't know what had happened, but one thing was certain: even if Shen Huan really went to the countryside, it absolutely wasn't as she had imagined - being kicked out for offending a municipal leader.

  Watching these people give way at the stairs, Shen Hua also had no intention of entangling with Gao Xiaohu and others, so he went downstairs to the lobby to settle the bill.

  It was Gu Tong who couldn't help but turn around and say, "Director Shen, we're all entrepreneurs, can you not be so ruthless when poaching people from the municipal steel plant?"

  "Oh, what's called ruthless and merciless?" Shen Hua stopped in his tracks, turned around, looked at Gu Tong, and asked, "Can't Director Gu let the capable, skilled, and high-level employees of the Municipal Steel Factory live a decent life? Are they willing to give up their iron rice bowls and work for a small, broken enterprise in the countryside? Does Director Gu think this is ruthless and merciless? I'd like to ask Director Gu: Is it being kind-hearted and soft-handed if workers can't even make ends meet? Now, from Zhongyāng to the Municipal Party Committee and Government, everyone encourages talent mobility. If Director Gu really feels wronged, I can discuss this logic with him in front of Mayor Gao. It's not worth blocking my way at the stairs."

  Gu Tong almost gave Shen Huai a heart attack with one sentence, originally they were the ones who were rude first, didn't think he would block this vicious dog's path, could only hold back his anger and listen to him reversing right and wrong.

  Shen Huai saw Gu Tong and remained silent, walking with Yuan Hongjun to the other side of the main hall, no longer paying attention to Gao Xiaohu and Gu Tong.

  Yang Lili was even more unable to see through Shen Hua, and didn't expect that the director of the municipal steel factory, Gu Tong, would also scold him so severely. Being blocked for half a day, he couldn't say a word to regain his dignity.

  At this time, the elevator came down, and Yang Lili accompanied Gao Xiaohu and others into the elevator.

  As the elevator doors closed, Gao Xiao Hu's guest for tonight, the young man with a mole on his face who hadn't looked at Shen Hua in half a day, finally spoke up and asked: "Is this guy the one who smashed President Gao's car?"

  "It's this little beast," Gao Xiaohu nodded with a bad face, recalling the past, and the resentment in his heart was still difficult to calm down. He asked, "Dai Zong, have you ever heard of him before? He used to follow Chen Mingde from the province..."

  "I don't know," said the young man with the surname Dai, shaking his head. "Chen Mingde used to be in the provincial government, but he was just a deputy director of the Planning Commission. Who would care about the people under him?" His expression still looked down on Shen Hua.

  Although this guy with the surname Dai had an attitude that didn't put Shen Hua in his eyes, to Yang Lili it was a completely different feeling: Shen Hua not only made Gao Xiaohu swallow his anger today, but also smashed Gao Xiaohu's car before?

  It's all over. She regretted being deliberately slow with Shen Huan today and knew she had offended him greatly.

  Yang Lili thought that Shen Hua and the others should be going to the front desk in the lobby to settle the bill, and wouldn't leave immediately. After arriving on the fifth floor, she directly handed over Gao Xiaohu and the others to the reception manager on the fifth floor, reported her mistake, and didn't even wait for the elevator, instead taking the stairs "thud thud" all the way down from the fifth floor to the lobby.

  On this side of the hall, Mr. Yang, the owner of the sand and gravel yard, was settling accounts at the front desk. Shen Hua and Yuan Hongjun were standing at the door talking. Yang Lili exclaimed: "Secretary Shen, why are you leaving so soon? Don't go to the fifth floor to sing a song or take a break? There were too many guests today, I can still attend to Secretary Shen, I was slow, give me a chance to apologize...

  Shen Huai gave her a cold glance, thinking to himself that this woman was truly shameless, and in the blink of an eye, she acted as if nothing had happened today.

  Yang Lili has a captivating appearance, but Shen Huan can't be bothered to pay attention to her, turning his head to gaze at the streetlights outside the glass door.

  Yang Lili saw him with a cold face and not speaking, her heart was even more nervous, she couldn't help but want to slap herself twice.

  If Shen Huan were to boycott the Ying Huang International from now on because of her slow service today, that would be a small matter. The key is that she has seen Shen Huan's temper when competing with other customers before, so how dare she not come over to apologize?

  Yang Lili didn't dare to leave like this, forcing a smile as she walked over and stood beside Shen Hua, saying: "Secretary Shen, I'm really sorry today, can you give me a chance to apologize..."

  Yuan Hongjun, He Qingshe and others just watched with cold eyes. To be honest, they were ignored in the private room and couldn't even get a waiter to come over and settle the bill, so they had some resentment in their hearts.

  Shen Huai had just scolded Song Sanhe, Gao Xiaohu and Gu Tong like a grandson, telling them to vent their anger thoroughly. Now seeing this self-interested woman come over to apologize with a frightened expression, he felt an indescribable sense of pleasure.

  Shen Hua ignored Yang Lili, saw that the account was settled over there, and directly pushed the door to walk out. However, he kept thinking about Kou Xian's affairs, and said to He Qing She and Chu Qiang outside: "I still have some things to do in the city, you can take Secretary Yuan's car back..."

  After seeing Shen Hua's mighty appearance just now, Yuan Hongjun also truly realized that the rumors were not false. Although Shen Hua is a township cadre, if he is treated as an ordinary township cadre, it would be a case of having eyes but failing to recognize Mount Tai.

  He naturally wouldn't ask Shen Hua what other nighttime activities he had planned, instead smiling knowingly and saying: "I'll take care of sending He Zhenchang and Xiao Chu back to Mei Creek, so they won't disrupt your private activities, Secretary Shen..."

  Shen Huai didn't make any explanation, he just waved his hand to send Yuan Hongjun and He Qingshe off as they got on the car and left first. He stood at the edge of the parking lot, took out a cigarette, lit it up and started smoking.
