Chapter 102 Little People
Chapter 102 Little People
Director Lin stared at him for a few seconds, the muscles on his skinny face twitching slightly. The expression looked like a smile, but also like a sneer, it was hard to tell.
Then, he bowed slightly, returned the greeting, and said, "Come with me."
Although it was their first meeting and they hadn't even exchanged a few words, An Rusong could still tell that the guy in front of him was definitely a serious person who didn't smile. It was just that his position was "section chief", but he didn't know what section he was the chief of.
Following Director Lin, An Rushong entered the main entrance of the villa.
As soon as he walked in, An Rushong smelled a strong scent of sandalwood. This scent should be the scent of incense burned in the Buddhist temple, which can calm people's mind.
Director Lin did not stop at the entrance. He walked directly into the living room, then went to a staircase on the left side of the living room and went directly to the second floor.
An Rushong followed behind the other person the entire time. He observed etiquette and did not look around. His eyes were always focused behind Director Lin, as if he was afraid of seeing something he shouldn't see.
After going up to the second floor, Director Lin stopped in front of the white door opposite the stairs. It was a double-leaf door, tightly closed. Faintly, there seemed to be the sound of music coming from inside.
Director Lin turned around in front of the door, facing sideways, then looked at An Rushong first, then glanced to his right, away from the door.
An Rushong understood what he meant and immediately walked over and stood where his eyes were.
Director Lin seemed satisfied with his reaction. The skinny muscles on his face twitched again. Then he raised his left hand and knocked gently on the door.
After about half a minute, half of the door opened from the inside, and a fat face appeared from inside.
"Mr. Nan," Director Lin bowed slightly to the fat man and said, "Mr. An Rusong is here."
The fat man's face turned slightly, and his eyes fell on An Rushong.
"This is Mr. Nan Xuyu," Director Lin introduced An Rushong without losing any time.
"Mr. Nan," An Rushong bowed respectfully and greeted.
The fat man was Nan Xuyu. He looked at An Rushong twice before opening the door and said with a smile, "Come in. Councillor Kong has been waiting for you for a long time."
An Rushong felt flattered by these words, but unfortunately he knew very well that these were just polite remarks and the other party didn't have the time to wait for him.
However, what you think is one thing, and your actual performance is another. He pretended to be extremely honored, and even swallowed nervously, then stretched the hem of his clothes hard, and then took a cautious step forward, stepping on the goal line just right.
Inside the door was a large living room with luxurious decoration. The soft carpet covered the entire room. In the center of the living room, there were two long sofas and four single sofas. In addition, there was a large glass coffee table placed in the middle of these sofas.
At this time, there were eight or nine people sitting on these sofas, to be exact, two men and seven women. Among these people, the one sitting on the main seat was a middle-aged man who looked to be about 40 years old and wore gold-rimmed glasses.
An Rushong recognized at a glance that this middle-aged man was the Councillor Kong who often appeared on news programs. This guy was actually over 50 years old, and the reason he looked young was only because he took good care of himself.
Councillor Kong was sitting on a long sofa. On his left and right sat a young and beautiful woman. On a single sofa to his left sat a thin, middle-aged man with severe baldness.
There were also two women sitting on the long sofa opposite Councillor Kong, and the remaining three women occupied three single sofas. In addition, there was another single sofa that was empty.
"Oh, there's a new guest," said Councillor Kong, who saw An Rusong appear at the door with a glass of red wine in his hand, "He's a young man."
After saying this, he laughed and waved, "Come on, come on, young man, have a drink with us old guys."
An Rusong first bowed to Councillor Kong from a distance, this bow was very deep, a standard 90-degree bow. After standing up, he did not walk over directly, but waited for Nan Xuyu to close the door and walk back first, then he followed carefully, half a body length behind him.
He didn't know Nan Xuyu's identity, but since he appeared here, it meant that he must be a close confidant of Councillor Kong. Didn't he see that Shen Taian didn't even have the chance to come here?
"Haha, you're still a humble young man," Councillor Kong seemed very happy. He looked at An Rushong's cautious appearance, turned his head and smiled at the balding middle-aged man.
The balding middle-aged man was staring at An Rushong. After hearing what he said, he just smiled to please him, but the smile disappeared almost as soon as it appeared.
After Nan Xuyu walked back, he sat directly on the single sofa. An Rusong, who was half a body behind him, was in a dilemma because there was only one seat left, which was the long sofa opposite Councillor Kong.
But the problem was that in addition to the empty seat on the sofa, there were two women sitting there, one on each side, occupying both ends of the sofa, leaving only the middle seat empty.
In other words, this empty seat is the second seat in the entire seating arrangement. Can An Rushong sit there directly?
"Sit down, don't stand," Councillor Kong was unusually kind, like an uncle treating his nephew. He pointed to the empty seat on the sofa opposite him and greeted him. An Rusong hesitated for a few seconds before bowing and saying, "Mr. Kong, I don't dare to sit in this seat. That's too rude."
"Hey, we're all family here, there's no need to be so polite," Councillor Kong said with a smile, "I want you to sit down, so sit down."
The tone of his last sentence was a little heavy.
An Rushong didn't dare to say anything more. He hurriedly bowed to the old man, then walked to the empty seat on the sofa and sat down.
"That's right," Councillor Kong said with a smile after he took his seat. "Young people should be more energetic and not be like us old guys who stick to the old ways. Don't you agree?"
After saying this, he glanced at Nan Xuyu who was sitting next to him.
An Rusong's butt had just touched the sofa. Hearing this, he hurriedly stood up and bowed his head to apologize: "I'm very sorry, Mr. Kong, I uploaded Jin Yudong's video before without your consent. I acted on my own initiative."
"Hey, sit down, sit down," Councillor Kong still had a smiling face. He waved his hand at An Rushong and said, "You did a great job on this matter. Why do you need to apologize? The one who needs to apologize is obviously Shen Taian."
The look of panic on An Rushong's face became even more intense.
"Haha, alright, alright," Councillor Kong seemed quite satisfied with his reaction. The old man laughed and said, "Don't worry too much about the past. Anyway, the effect is very good now, isn't it? With the involvement of the surname Jin, the Supreme Prosecutor's Office has been embroiled in a lot of trouble and has no energy left to deal with me. I am very satisfied with this result."
An Rusong rested half of his butt on the sofa, the panic on his face not diminishing at all. He propped his hands on his knees, clenched his ten fingers, then unclenched them, unclenched them, clenched them again, anyone could see his uneasiness.
"I've heard about you from Taian," Councillor Kong observed his every move. "Your NGN software looks promising. You must run it well in the future."
"Thank you Mr. Kong for your concern," An Rushong said, leaning forward again.
"That." Councillor Kong continued, but he got stuck after he started talking. "What were the names of the two brothers that Taian mentioned?"
"Zhao Jingsheng, Zhao Chenghao," said the balding middle-aged man.
"Oh, yes, the two of them," Councillor Kong nodded and said, "Don't worry about them. I've asked Director Lin to make arrangements. If nothing unexpected happens, they will be able to come out in the next two days."
It seems that the Zhao Jingsheng brothers have worked so hard for someone for so many years, but that person can't even remember their names. Is there anything more tragic than this?
Although he complained in his heart, An Rusong's face showed a grateful expression. He said, "Thank you, Mr. Kong."
"Yeah," Councillor Kong nodded with satisfaction and brought the glass of red wine in his hand to his lips.
Almost at the same time, Nan Xuyu, who was sitting on the side, stood up and said with a smile: "Rusong, come with me."
After he finished speaking, he walked towards the door.
What? That's it?!
An Rushong's mind was confused, but his body moved at no slowness.
He stood up quickly, bowed to Councillor Kong and the balding middle-aged man, and then followed Nan Xuyu out the door.
"Rusong, I've learned about your NGN software," Nan Xuyu walked out of the living room and stopped at the door. When An Rusong caught up, he said, "Well, generally speaking, it still has some prospects."
"Thank you, Mr. Nan," An Rushong said, bowing slightly.
"I have already discussed this with Tai'an," Nan Xuyu continued, "From now on, you will help me. I will be responsible for the public relations and promotion work that Mr. Kong needs, and you should be able to help me."
An Rushong didn't say anything and waited for the other party to continue.
Nan Xuyu took out a plastic bag from his pocket, handed it to An Rusong, and said, "There is my business card and a car key in it. You can drive away the silver ML350 in the yard later."
"Mr. Nan, I..." An Rushong said.
"Don't interrupt me," Nan Xuyu raised a finger and said seriously, "Helping me in the future is one of the first principles."
