Once, I wanted to be a good person-Chapter 491 - 110. Fang Ze Became the Director?! (9500 Words, Vote for Monthly Ticket!)_5

At the mention of this, her eyes lit up, and she suddenly sat up straight, "Or, you could hire me as your bodyguard! I'm actually pretty strong now!"

Upon hearing her words, Bai Zhi sized her up and then said with a smile, "How about this, Bai Ling. I'll give you one hand. You fight me. If you can beat me, you can be my bodyguard, okay?"

Stunned at first by Bai Zhi's remark, Bai Ling quickly became annoyed and started frolicking with Bai, "Bai Jiejie! You're bullying people again! You're the Thousand-Handed Guanyin! How can giving just one hand count for anything!"

"Hahaha."

"Haha."

That afternoon, the laughter of two girls and a boy echoed non-stop in the room aboard the Sky Mother Ship.

The patrolling members of the Defense Team, upon hearing the laughter, would just stop and take a look before resuming their patrols...

After all, no one wanted to interrupt these joyful moments.....

.....

At night. The meeting room of the State Security Bureau was hosting a directors' meeting.

The attendees were the same five directors of the State Security Bureau.

The female director who often communicated with Bai Zhi.

An old man with white hair and a face full of wrinkles.

A girl holding a book with glasses as thick as the bottom of a beer bottle.

Qingping.

And an explosively skinny, spiky-haired youth.

Judging by the empty teacups on their desks and the already emptied thermos, they had been in the meeting for quite a long time.

And from the silence in the office, it was clear the meeting was not going very smoothly.

However, perhaps because they were tired of arguing, all five people sat in silence, no one taking the initiative to speak.

After a while, the female director at the head of the table rubbed her temples and then raised her head, her gaze sweeping over the other four people, "All right. Stop arguing. I'm tired of listening."

"Let's just vote. Five people, six votes. Majority rules."

Upon hearing her proposition, the other four people nodded in agreement.

Seeing everyone agree to vote, she said slowly, "Then, first, those in favor of Gu Qing assuming the position of director of Emerald City Security Bureau, please raise your hand."

Upon hearing her words, the meeting room fell into an eerie silence and no one raised their hands.

The female director looked around the meeting room, then announced, "Good. Zero votes."

"Then... those in favor of Bai Zhi assuming the position of director of Emerald City Security Bureau, please raise your hand."

After she spoke, the old man and the book-holding girl slowly raised their hands.

Certainly, judging by this and the previous meetings, they were staunch supporters of the Bai Family or even members of the Bai Family.

After the two raised their hands, smiles appeared on their faces.

After all, of the five directors, the Bai Family held three seats, one of them being the chief director with two votes. They were almost guaranteed to win.

Thinking this, they could not help but look toward the female director.

But when their gazes landed on her, they were surprised to discover that she had not raised her hand. Instead, she averted their eyes, looking straight ahead, and blandly stated, "Two votes."

The old man and the girl showed expressions of astonishment.

They looked at the female director in disbelief.

But the female director ignored their looks, closed her eyes, and then said slowly,

"Those in favor of Fang Ze assuming the position of director of Emerald City Security Bureau, please raise your hand."

After she finished speaking, the old man and girl held a faint glimmer of hope that the female director, while not supporting Bai Zhi, might similarly not support Fang Ze, perhaps abstaining instead.

Unexpectedly, after she finished speaking, she calmly raised her own hand.

The old man and the girl's eyes widened in shock.

Laughter from the spiky-haired youth sounded from across them.

They looked toward him. By now, the spiky-haired youth had proudly raised his hand, grinning smugly at the two of them.

Next to the spiky-haired youth, Qingping stood up with a faint smile. While she gathered her documents, she said, "It seems Fang Ze is the unanimous choice for director."

"But it makes sense. After all, everyone has seen the results of his work since joining the Security Bureau."

"Now he has even cracked the Flower Morning Festival."

"No one can dispute his appointment," she concluded, nodding towards the female director, then scooped up her documents and left the meeting room without looking back.

Following her, the spiky-haired youth also stood up, leaving the meeting room with a laugh.

Shortly after, only the female director, the old man, and the girl remained in the meeting room.

The old man, who had been droopy-eyed, now opened his eyes wide, glaring at the female director, "What on earth are you doing?"

"Have you forgotten who has been supporting and grooming you, bringing you to where you are today?"

The female director, with her eyes closed, said wearily, "I haven't forgotten. It was the former director."

"I have never forgotten his kindness to me over the years."

"But... I am also a director of the State Security Bureau. I have to be responsible for the Security Bureau."

"Bai Zhi... she really isn't fit to be director. Forcing her into that position would only harm her."

Hearing the female director's words, the old man retorted angrily, "That's just an excuse!"

"Over the years, every time Zhi had a chance for promotion, it was you who held her back, refusing to let her rise!"

"And now, with such a good opportunity, you're still holding her back!"

At the old man's scolding, the female director sighed softly.
