The Strongest Master Venturing Urban-Chapter 924 - 926: Did You Miss Me?
"Yes, if it weren't absolutely necessary, I would never have applied for early retirement."
As he spoke, Gan Qiu placed his examination results on the desk.
Cheng Liusha opened the bag and found all sorts of examination results inside.
Unfortunately, he knew nothing about medicine and couldn't understand them at all.
However, the medical records did state that Gan Qiu was at risk of life-threatening issues at any moment.
"Since your illness is so severe, you shouldn't be busy with other things. I happen to know an expert in the Imperial Capital, a specialist in cardiology. Let me help you get in touch with him."
Seeing that Cheng Liusha was about to take out his phone, Gan Qiu hurriedly said.
"Secretary Cheng, I appreciate your kindness. But I've already got a doctor lined up. If I can successfully retire before the Spring Festival, I'll go for surgery immediately."
"Look at you, heart disease is no small matter. Can't Tianhe's hospital handle it? Let my friend take a look, just in case it's a misdiagnosis."
Cheng Liusha enunciated "misdiagnosis" particularly clearly, which made Gan Qiu's heart tremble with fear.
He quickly forced a smile on his face and said ingratiatingly.
"Secretary Cheng, you're busy with numerous affairs daily; how can my illness trouble you? I just hope you can approve my retirement as soon as possible, and that would be perfect."
Cheng Liusha stared intently into Gan Qiu's eyes, "You seem very afraid of me making this call."
Gan Qiu was so intimidated by the other's aura that he trembled all over, but he still braced himself and said.
"Why would I be? I just don't want to trouble Secretary Cheng."
Putting down the phone, Cheng Liusha continued with a serious face.
"Comrade Gan Qiu, the organization keeps you on the front line as a sign of trust. I hope that before you retire, you can stand firm at the last post. As for early retirement, whether you're sick or not, you know in your heart!"
Cold sweat dripped from Gan Qiu's forehead, and he dared not speak further.
Clutching his examination results, he slipped away in defeat.
Bao Kanglu had been standing by the office window all along, and as soon as he saw Gan Qiu leave the building, he immediately made a call.
"Did Cheng Liusha approve your early retirement?"
"No, he even scolded me."
Upon hearing this, Bao Kanglu furrowed his brow.
The unsettled mood within him churned once more.
After hanging up, he began to ponder a countermeasure.
Yet after contemplating for a long time, he still didn't know what to do.
Now he could only hope that Gan Qiu wouldn't encounter any mishaps; otherwise, he'd be in trouble.
After being frightened by Cheng Liusha, Gan Qiu returned to Tianhe and was hospitalized.
He spent the entire Spring Festival in the hospital, with his spirits at an all-time low.
In contrast, Min Tenghai's circumstances were much better.
Because he had finally awaited the return of his long-yearned-for big brother, Yu Shiwan.
However, since it was the festive season, Min Tenghai didn't want to ruin the atmosphere and had never brought up the matter.
On New Year's Eve, after lunch, the two came to the study to have tea.
Yu Shiwan was the first to ask, "Still not planning to tell me?"
Min Tenghai appeared puzzled, "Tell you what?"
"Stop pretending! If you weren't in trouble, would you have urged me to return every day?"
With no other choice, Min Tenghai had to reveal all his entanglements with Chen Bin.
After listening, Yu Shiwan slammed the table and scolded.
"Foolish!"
Min Tenghai trembled all over, looking like a reprimanded child.
Despite being the wealthiest man in Tianhe, he was still the little follower in front of Yu Shiwan.
Min Tenghai's achievements were all attributed to Yu Shiwan.
Otherwise, he'd still be a small-time contractor.
Taking a deep breath, Yu Shiwan continued.
"You didn't understand Chen Bin initially. Why did you think Gan Qiu could squeeze him out? Even if Gan Qiu was a local tyrant, when he started to lose, he should've tried to curry favor with Chen Bin. You can't navigate such matters; what a waste of your age!"
Min Tenghai remained silent.
Seeing that Yu Shiwan's teacup was empty, he immediately got up to pour more tea.
Yu Shiwan snorted coldly and continued to ask.
"What about Ouyang Tianxiong; how is his relationship with Chen Bin?"
"Originally, he didn't have a good relationship with Chen Bin but sent his daughter to interact with him. Although Chen Bin's attitude towards Ouyang Haitang is lukewarm, overall, they're not at odds."
"The difference, that's the difference!"
Yu Shiwan slammed the teacup onto the table, continuing his reproach.
"Ouyang Tianxiong is just a rogue; he understands the game. How come you don't know? By the way, isn't Ouyang Haitang your son's girlfriend? How did she get involved with Chen Bin?"
"Ouyang Haitang was in a car accident the last time, and Chen Bin saved her. Plus, Dong doesn't know how to win over girls, so they broke up."
At this point, Min Tenghai looked at Yu Shiwan pleadingly.
"Big brother, I've never asked you for anything over the years. This time, you've got to help me through this crisis, or else it's all over!"
Looking at his sworn brother in front of him, Yu Shiwan eventually sighed.
"Alright, let me think of a way."
After the Spring Festival, Chen Bin, as a representative of the National People's Congress, joined the Yanxi Province delegation to participate in the annual National People's Congress.
Since he took office in Tianhe, the place had been transformed with the economy thriving.
Coupling with his previous reputation as a star official, he quickly became a media darling.
Chen Bin handled such situations effortlessly.
After the meeting, he contacted He Beibei.
"Baby, let's meet at the Imperial Capital Hotel, no backing out."
The latter immediately replied, "No problem! Send me the room number when you're there."
All these years, even though He Beibei had married Xiong Wubing, she never lost contact with Chen Bin.
And with Xiong Wubing leaving the Imperial Capital to serve as a permanent deputy secretary in another province early last year, Beibei's contact with Chen Bin became more frequent.
After all, at her age of wanting desires, having had a child together, the emotional foundation was still there.
Arriving at the hotel, as soon as He Beibei entered the room, she clung to Chen Bin's arm.
She moved her full White Jade Peak against it continuously.
"Brother Hero, it's been so long; did you miss me?"
Chen Bin first closed the door, then naturally reached out to hug He Beibei. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
While caressing her slender waist, he replied tenderly.
"Of course, I missed you. You are, after all, my dear sister."
These words moved He Beibei, who was alone at home.
"Then love me well, just like before."
With that, she blushed and took the initiative to kiss Chen Bin.
In such an ambiguous atmosphere, they embraced and kissed like long-separated lovers...
