Li Zhiyan saw this and chuckled inwardly, a slight smile playing on her lips. Her tone was teasing, "Alright, I won't say any more. Let's do this: I'll handle Director Wang, and you take care of your secretary husband. Hurry and get someone from the Women's Federation. I heard that Liu Ruyue is very interested in Sun Zhewen. You better be quick, or she'll steal him away, and you won't even have a place to cry. She's the daughter of a provincial cadre, you know."
Chen Qingyan frowned, her heart immediately tightening, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. "How do you know these things?"
Li Zhiyan chuckled inwardly, pretending to be mysterious. "The Women's Federation is full of gossips, you know that. Okay, cousin, I'm off. Contact me if you need anything. You must hurry, really, I'm not kidding." After saying this, she winked at Chen Qingyan, as if saying, "Don't be careless."
Chen Qingyan was stunned for a moment, then reacted quickly, hurriedly shouting, "Wait, take the card."
Li Zhiyan laughed, "Cousin is really cautious now. You should be like this in the future." With that, she turned and left gracefully, her steps light and quick, like a happy little deer.
Chen Qingyan watched Li Zhiyan's departing figure, her heart filled with mixed emotions. She had no way out; she could only bite the bullet and move forward. She took a deep breath, her eyes becoming determined, and she silently thought, "Sun Zhewen, I will definitely help you!"
Chen Qingyan left her desk, rubbing her temples with both hands, trying to dispel Li Zhiyan's words echoing in her mind. She walked to the sofa and sat down heavily, the anxiety and unease within her causing her heart to race. Li Zhiyan, that woman, was truly a headache. She always used an undeniable tone to force others to do things, and this time, Chen Qingyan knew she had to act quickly, or everything would become even more complicated.
She took a deep breath, picked up her phone, hesitated with her finger on the screen, and finally dialed Liu Qunqi's number.
"Hey, are you coming back tonight? I have something I want to discuss with you." Chen Qingyan tried to keep her voice calm, even though her heart was racing.
Liu Qunqi's voice came from the other end of the phone, tinged with fatigue and confusion, "What is it? I'm really busy here."
Chen Qingyan gritted her teeth and decided to get straight to the point, "It's like this, I want to ask you for a favor. I want to transfer Sun Zhewen to Chengguan Police Station to be a deputy director."
"Sun Zhewen?" Liu Qunqi's voice was filled with a hint of doubt. Of course, he knew who Sun Zhewen was; he was Li Zhiyan's nominal husband. "Isn't he doing well at the Women's Federation?"
Chen Qingyan sighed helplessly, "It's still Li Zhiyan. She thinks Sun Zhewen's position is too low, not worthy of her as the general manager of Fengyun Group. She wants me to help arrange him in the police station. After thinking about it, I figured giving him the position of deputy director would be enough. After all, he's family, and it's hard to refuse. Besides, Sun Zhewen used to be my subordinate, and I just couldn't bring myself to turn him down." She tried to make her tone sound casual, trying to downplay the situation so as not to arouse Liu Qunqi's suspicions. She knew that if her husband sensed something was wrong, he would definitely refuse to help.
On the other end of the phone, Liu Qunqi was silent for a moment, as if weighing the pros and cons. Chen Qingyan could feel him thinking, and her heart clenched with anxiety. Finally, Liu Qunqi spoke, "This is the first time you've asked me for a favor. Alright, alright, I'll do my best to help you. But you also have to be careful, don't let anyone get a hold of anything."
Chen Qingyan breathed a sigh of relief and quickly said, "Okay, thank you."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Qingyan felt a weight lifted off her shoulders, but she knew this was just the beginning. She had to go to the Women's Federation as soon as possible to get someone, and she couldn't let Liu Ruyue get there first.
Li Zhiyan went straight to the county Public Security Bureau, attracting the attention of many people along the way. Swaying her body, she walked towards the director's office and pushed the door open directly, skipping the courtesy of knocking. She didn't believe this pig would dare to have any thoughts about her.
Director Wang was leisurely playing with his phone in his office. Seeing the door suddenly pushed open and seeing it was Li Zhiyan, he immediately put down his phone, his face full of smiles, and hurried to greet her, "Oh, General Manager Li, what brings you here today?"
Li Zhiyan walked towards his desk, smiling, "Director Wang, I don't come here for nothing. I'm here to ask for your help this time."
Director Wang's heart tightened when he heard this. Li Zhiyan was Liu Qingfeng's woman, and he knew the power of the Liu family very well. Although he usually had some admiration for Li Zhiyan, it was only in his mind. He really didn't dare to have any bad ideas. So, he pretended to be relaxed and smiled, "Oh, does General Manager Li's influence still need the help of a small director like me? You're flattering me."
Li Zhiyan sat down, smiled slightly, and looked directly into Director Wang's eyes, saying, "Director Wang, you're joking. I really have something to ask for this time. You know, my husband is still a small clerk in the Women's Federation, and his family has always looked down on him. This time the chairman gave me a task, and I can't refuse, so I can only come to you for help, to arrange him here, and by the way, give him a deputy section chief position, so that his family won't always nag."
Director Wang understood a little when he heard this. This was to ask for a position. He was calculating in his heart, but he didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction on his face. After all, behind Li Zhiyan stood the Liu family. He smiled and said, "General Manager Li, this government business is not like your company. It's just a matter of saying things, you also have to follow procedures. And there isn't a suitable position in the county bureau right now."
Li Zhiyan said directly, "Director Wang, let me speak frankly. I've told my cousin, she will tell Secretary Liu, and give him the position of deputy director of the Chengguan Police Station."
Director Wang couldn't help but secretly laugh when he heard this. Deputy director of Chengguan Town, good heavens, they really don't consider a deputy section chief a big deal, and they can just give it away? However, he showed a look of difficulty on his face and frowned slightly, "General Manager Li, you don't know, although the current assessment for the deputy director is general, but his qualifications are there, and it's not easy for me to do this."
Li Zhiyan saw Director Wang's reaction and smiled slightly. She took a card from her handbag and said softly, "Here's a million. I wonder if Director Wang would be willing to help out. You could transfer him back to the county bureau and give him a promotion, a position with little responsibility. He'll retire in a few years anyway. Don't you think that's a good plan?"
Director Wang looked at the card in front of him, his heart pounding with excitement. A million was no small sum. But he also knew this money wouldn't come easy. After weighing his options, he hesitated and asked, "Did your cousin really agree to talk to Secretary Liu?"
Li Zhiyan's smile grew brighter, a glint of cunning in her eyes. "Of course, she did. Or, I could give her a call and have her tell you herself."
Director Wang waved his hand quickly. "No need, no need. Then I'll get this sorted out."
