Officialdom: The beautiful leader took me to the top

Chapter 2627 More wolves and less meat

Meanwhile, on the high-speed train back to Tianjing.

Bai Xiaowei lay on the business class seat, dozing with his eyes closed.

The city where he works is only a two-hour drive from Tianjing, or half an hour by high-speed rail.

In terms of distance, it's actually not too far.

However, if we consider the city's positioning, then the difference is enormous.

Bai Xiaowei didn't want to stay in Tianjing, but the old man's plan for him was to take a position in another city first.

After all, land in Tianjing is extremely valuable, opportunities are scarce, and there are all sorts of shady characters around.

There are too many wolves and not enough meat, limiting development.

It's different in other places. Although there are fewer opportunities, a young master like Bai Xiaowei would be completely overwhelmed.

Take Bai Xiaowei's workplace for example; whenever there's an opportunity for promotion or advancement, he's always the first choice.

Therefore, Bai Xiaowei has made rapid progress over the years.

He was just waiting for the right opportunity to rise above his circumstances and return to Tianjing to inherit the Bai family business.

Unfortunately, Bai Xiaowei was a disappointment.

With the emperor far away and not under the old man's watchful eye, they've gotten into no shortage of trouble over the years.

Otherwise, his level would have moved up at least one level, and he wouldn't be stuck here.

Now, if he wants to be transferred back to Tianjing, his brother-in-law Qin Zhiyuan can only help him.

Last night, upon learning that his sister and Qin Zhiyuan's marriage was in trouble, Bai Xiaowei realized for the first time how difficult the situation was.

I bought a high-speed rail ticket early in the morning and went straight home without daring to delay for even a moment.

Even when asking for leave, I would call my boss directly.

If it were someone else, they definitely wouldn't dare to just leave like that.

However, given Bai Xiaowei's family background, even if the leaders disapproved, they dared not say anything openly.

After all, the leaders knew that Bai Xiaowei was just sent down to gain experience, and that he would be transferred sooner or later if the opportunity arose, so there was no need to offend this young master.

Besides, the other party will definitely return to Tianjing to develop their career in the future, and they will inevitably have to ask the Bai family for help whenever they need it.

Let alone asking for leave, even if someone is late or leaves early, people in the workplace turn a blind eye and no one will ask any questions.

Lying comfortably in the business class seat, Bai Xiaowei was wide awake, his mind preoccupied with how to resolve the situation.

Just then, my phone vibrated.

Bai Xiaowei picked it up and saw that the information he had asked someone to investigate had finally been sent to his phone. The investigation materials all revolved around Song Ci.

Bai Xiaowei was also curious. Who exactly was this Song Ci, that Qin Zhiyuan would rather abandon his status as the son-in-law of the Bai family than give up his sister's marriage? Could she be a celestial being?

The moment his fingertip touched the screen, Bai Xiaowei still had a slightly nonchalant sneer on his face.

For ordinary people, those goddesses who are high above them are already commonplace to him.

As for those internet celebrities who are hyped up online, Bai Xiaowei looks down on them.

A bunch of ordinary girls, all with faces created by makeup and filters, resembling a high-tech technology.

If you really took off their makeup and removed the camera lens, they would all be uglier than ghosts.

After all, given his status and position, he must have met quite a few outstanding women.

Whether it's a socialite in the Tianjing circle or a top star in the entertainment industry, they all have meticulously crafted appearances. Could it be that this Song Ci could actually grow into a flower?

That means his ex-girlfriend is a popular young actress in the entertainment industry.

In his pursuit of this female celebrity, he even got into a fight with the son of a local official.

Although he ultimately won, the incident had a very negative impact, and even reached his family.

At that time, the old man called him back to Tianjing and gave him a severe scolding.

Otherwise, how could he possibly be trapped?

It's because he offended too many people locally, and too many people suppressed him and didn't want him to stand out.

Nevertheless, Bai Xiaowei could not change his philandering nature. Over the years, he changed girlfriends as frequently as he changed clothes.

But when the first photo loaded, Bai Xiaowei's smile suddenly froze, and he even unconsciously straightened up a bit while leaning back in his chair.

The photo isn't a carefully posed artistic portrait; it's just a candid snapshot of everyday life.

Song Ci wore a light apricot-colored silk shirt with the sleeves rolled up to her forearms, revealing her clean-lined wrists.

In the photo, Song Ci is squatting on the lawn tying a little girl's shoelaces.

If I'm not mistaken, this little girl should be Song Ci's daughter, who is also exquisitely beautiful and lovable.

At that moment, the sunlight fell on Song Ci's hair, and stray hairs were brushed against her cheeks by the wind.

Song Ci didn't try to turn the dial, but just smiled with her eyes downcast.

The gentle curve at the corner of her eyes seemed to make the world lose its color in an instant.

It's clear that she doesn't like makeup, nor does she need to.

Her face was completely free of heavy makeup; you could even see the faint under-eye bags.

Yet, it was this simple and unadorned appearance that struck the soul more deeply than any woman Bai Xiaowei had ever seen!

Bai Xiaowei even felt that he had wasted the past few decades, and that all the women he had met before had become ordinary and vulgar in front of Song Ci.

The beauty of Song Dynasty poetry is not an aggressive kind of beauty; it is as clean as melting snow in early spring.

Yet his facial features were exceptionally well-proportioned, with a prominent, straight nose.

The lips are a natural cherry blossom pink, and even the jawline exudes a sharp and refined look.

Bai Xiaowei subconsciously zoomed in on the photo, his gaze sweeping over Song Ci's fingers holding the shoelaces.

Slender but not excessively so, with distinct knuckles that exude a sense of resilience!

Yesterday, my older sister called Song Ci a vixen on the phone, saying she seduced Qin Zhiyuan.

But the woman in the photo has a smile that exudes a gentle and open-hearted charm; there's not a trace of seductive allure in her.

Bai Xiaowei's fingers scrolled down almost uncontrollably. The second photo was of Song Ci at the entrance of her workplace, taken from the side.

He wore a navy blue police uniform with crisp shoulder lines.

It must have been during work hours; Song Ci's brows were slightly furrowed, and her eyes were focused.

However, the gentleness she showed in the previous photo was completely gone, replaced by the competence of a professional woman.

Police uniforms are notoriously difficult to wear, but she wore one that fit perfectly.

The waistline is perfectly cinched, neither appearing rigid nor lacking in a touch of heroic spirit.

It's like a sharp sword about to be drawn, exuding a terrifying sharpness.

Two qualities blended within her, like an angel and a devil, easily and completely reaping his soul!

So stunned was Bai Xiaowei that he even forgot to breathe, and it took him a while to come to his senses.

Bai Xiaowei gasped!

Is this what Song Dynasty poetry is like?

No wonder Qin Zhiyuan has been obsessed with her for so many years, keeping her like a precious treasure in Tianzhou, and now he's even willing to divorce his sister for her sake, not even caring about losing his status as the Bai family's son-in-law.

One is Song Ci, and the other is an older sister.

If you really put these two women together for comparison, Bai Xiaowei honestly said that there is absolutely no comparison between them!
