Official Career Storm-Chapter 962:

Song Guanchao gently toyed with his fingers, sending tingling sensations like electric shocks through her, causing Liang Jiajia to shudder occasionally.

Halfway through the movie, Liang Jiajia couldn't take it anymore and suddenly pulled his hand away, getting up and walking out.

Song Guanchao thought she was angry and quickly followed.

She hurried to the parking lot, taking quick small steps, and got straight into the car.

As soon as Song Guanchao got in, he heard Liang Jiajia say, "Go home."

Her cheeks were flushed, her breathing was a bit rapid, and her legs were pressed tightly together, gently rubbing.

Song Guanchao knew her body too well and realized she couldn't hold back any longer.

Along the way, they hurried, taking less than twenty minutes to get home.

As soon as they entered the house, without even turning on the air conditioner, Liang Jiajia jumped onto him, wrapping her legs around his waist from behind.

Song Guanchao grabbed her pants and pulled them down, revealing a large portion of her backside.

He unzipped her down jacket, and within moments, he had stripped her completely.

He quickly turned on the air conditioner, laid her down on the sofa, and kissed her body.

It seemed that this year had been too much for Liang Jiajia, her body was filled with an unbearable hunger.

He took off his clothes, spread her legs apart, and entered her without any foreplay.

"Ah!" Liang Jiajia's lower abdomen convulsed violently, her legs curled up and pressed against her stomach, causing her to tremble and cry out.

Song Guanchao kissed her mouth, folding her up, grabbing her shoulders, and thrusting with force.

From the fifth to the seventh day of the Chinese New Year, they hardly went out.

Outside, it was either snowing or raining; when hungry, they ordered takeout, and the first thing they did upon waking was make love.

It was thanks to Liang Jiajia's strong physique that she could withstand his fierce onslaught.

The seventh day, ten o'clock at night.

With a low breath, Song Guanchao lay on top of her without moving.

After a long time, he turned over and lay down.

The next morning.

The two woke up early, tangled for more than half an hour, then put on clean clothes, ready to face the first working day of the New Year.

...

Arriving at the City Committee.

Each department held a simple meeting.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Jiang Yiren came and said, "Secretary Song, tomorrow at ten o'clock in the morning, there will be a party committee meeting."

"Alright, I understand."

After Jiang Yiren finished speaking, she didn't leave but glanced around near his desk.

Song Guanchao found it odd and was about to ask what she was looking for when she turned and left.

Song Guanchao entered the office: "Secretary, tomorrow at ten o'clock in the morning, Secretary Qu will convene a party committee meeting."

"Okay." Wu Qiangwei said, "After the party committee meeting, come down with me for research. Prepare a plan."

Research again?

"Is it research in Lingjiang or going to the counties and towns below?"

"Lingjiang." Wu Qiangwei said, "Mainly researching various companies."

"Alright."

He guessed that it was probably Lu Zhizhong trying to transfer Lingjiang's companies, causing her to feel a sense of crisis.

All along, Wu Qiangwei's connections with the major companies in the city were not close enough.

Problems in these companies were not communicated to them.

If trust had been established earlier, Lu Zhizhong's plan would not have been implemented so smoothly.

Song Guanchao returned to his position and called Si Qingqing.

"Director Si, please list a table of all companies in Lingjiang by region and scale and send it to me."

"Send it to me before lunch today."

After giving the instructions, he hung up the phone without any additional small talk.

About an hour later, Si Qingqing sent over the table.

Song Guanchao printed out the table and selected ten companies from each district.

Even with just ten, adding up the five districts of Lingjiang was fifty in total.

Calculating at the pace of researching five a day, it would still take ten days.

If it were merely going through the motions, Song Guanchao would minimize it, but Wu Qiangwei wasn't just going through the motions this time.

She wanted to establish certain connections with these companies and gain trust from their managers.

Knowing this, Song Guanchao chose so many companies.

...

City Government.

On the first day of work, Zheng Bihui called Secretary Sun over and had him immediately contact the National Assets Bureau to handle the matters pending from before the New Year.

Secretary Sun had a tough New Year, mainly worrying that Zheng Bihui wouldn't want him as his secretary.

Fortunately, Zheng Bihui hadn't shown any such intention for now.

The whole morning, he ran to several bureaus in person, finally managing to revoke the contract signed by Tang Zhengqiang before the afternoon.

The contract was revoked, but the land of Fengmen Building still needed to be auctioned.

For Secretary Sun, this was a troublesome matter.

But for Zheng Bihui, it was a good thing.

The Fengmen Building project had originally been handled by him. After distribution of interests was agreed upon with Lu Zhizhong, the project was then given to Lu Zhizhong.

After going in circles for half a year, the project had returned to his hands.

Such a performance project, if well executed, would still be his, and no one could take it away.

Besides holding Fengmen Building, he had another major project in hand.

An investor from Hong Kong he'd been in contact with was considering investing in Lingjiang.

There had been contact with both sides for over half a year, and initially, Zheng Bihui had little hope.

Perhaps it was his sincerity that moved the other party, or maybe the preferential policies he offered were enticing.

In any case, the other party was now very interested in Lingjiang.

In half a year at the latest, it would be confirmed whether to invest in Lingjiang.

The investor from Hong Kong had inspected Lingjiang for more than half a year, adding another half year, totaling one year.

Such a long inspection time proved how significant the investment was to this Hong Kong businessman.

In fact, the planned level of investment was quite astonishing.

According to some details he obtained, this Hong Kong businessman intended to invest over ten billion in Lingjiang!

Such a large scale performance project, coupled with Fengmen Building, resulted in two projects each worth billions!

Once these two projects were finalized, he had full opportunities to serve as the top leader in other prefecture-level cities.

Moreover, entering the provincial level in the future was highly probable.

He had always kept the specific progress of negotiations with the Hong Kong businessman under wraps, never mentioning it to anyone.

Being so low-key was to prevent any slip-ups and to avoid someone else reaping the benefits.

In the afternoon, close to finishing work, he called Secretary Sun over and instructed, "Ensure the bidding and tendering for Fengmen Building is finalized soon. The bidding process this time must require deposit guarantees. All procedures must be compliant. If there's another error, write your resignation letter yourself."

"Rest assured, Mayor, there will be absolutely no issues this time!"

...

The next day, ten o'clock in the morning.

The grand meeting room of the City Committee, the first party committee meeting of the New Year started promptly.

This was also the first party committee meeting presided over by Qu Xiangru since taking office.

"Two matters."

Qu Xiangru's style was different from Lu Zhizhong's; she didn't have unnecessary formalities, directly stating the meeting's agenda for discussion.

"The first matter concerns the personnel appointments of Secretary Wu Qiangwei, Political and Legal Committee Secretary Lv, and Secretary Song."

At these words, the attendees were slightly taken aback.

Personnel appointment for Secretary Wu?

Did Wu Qiangwei have a new personnel appointment?

How come they hadn't heard a single whisper beforehand?

It's known that appointments at Wu Qiangwei's level are decided by the Provincial Committee.

They looked at Wu Qiangwei and, seeing her equally puzzled expression, were even more curious.

Did Secretary Wu not know herself?

This was truly astonishing.

They were increasingly curious about what leadership position the province was arranging for Wu Qiangwei.

Could it be... to replace Zheng Bihui?

Zheng Bihui also considered this possibility, and he couldn't help but feel a bit nervous inside.
