Officialdom: The beautiful leader took me to the top

After the brief incident, Li Dong also turned his gaze back.

While eating, he discussed the work of the police station with Liu Min.

As for the surrounding discussions and various gazes, Li Dong paid no attention to them.

His relationship with Liu Min was purely professional, and Liu Min's personal conduct did not affect their work.

Besides, even if Liu Min is really as rumored, there must be other hidden stories behind this matter.

Judging from their current interactions, Liu Min may not have had any ulterior motives in approaching him, but at the very least, she didn't harm him.

Moreover, Li Dong could sense that Liu Min wasn't inherently bad.

Even if it does exist, it's just going with the flow.

In a place like a mine, it's already difficult for a woman to survive, let alone a beautiful one.

The world is tough, and there's no need for him to rub salt into other people's wounds.

Therefore, Li Dong genuinely considered Liu Min as a friend.

When he arrived at the police station, everyone wanted to isolate him.

The security team, in particular, avoided being seen by all its members.

Liu Min accompanied Li Donglai to his first meal at the police station.

Li Dong deserves this favor!

Whether it was his imagination or not, Li Dong suddenly felt the surrounding silence drop, and the discussions stopped as well.

Li Dong looked up abruptly and saw Su Xiaotang walking over.

Su Xiaotang was accompanied by a female companion, both of them carrying plates.

Judging from the direction they're heading, it's right this way!

Li Dong suddenly felt immense pressure. What was Su Xiaotang up to?

With Liu Min by his side, he was already in the center of public attention.

If Su Xiaotang also adds to the trouble, wouldn't that be adding fuel to the fire?

Noticing that Li Dong was in a daze, Liu Min also looked up.

When Liu Min discovered Su Xiaotang, she was also taken aback.

As a woman herself, Su Xiaotang's warning and wariness were impossible to miss.

But where does Su Xiaotang's hostility come from?

Because of Li Dong?

One is the high-ranking beauty of Su Dachang, and the other is a newly recruited police officer in the police station and a rising star in the Tianzhou police force. Could there be some connection between these two?

Thinking of this, Liu Min turned her head to look at Li Dong.

Seeing Li Dong's unnatural appearance, a hint of amusement appeared in his eyes!

Although it's not yet certain that the other party is looking for Li Dong, besides Li Dong, there is no other man around who could make Su Dachanghua lower her pride for the first time.

Moreover, the finance department and the police station have always kept to themselves, and the two have never crossed paths.

There is simply no other answer besides Li Dong.

As Su Xiaotang drew closer, the surrounding air grew increasingly quiet.

Even the gazes of onlookers became more intense and gossipy.

Su Xiaotang and Liu Min are both prominent figures in the mine.

One is the former factory beauty, who is now constantly involved in scandals.

One is the current factory beauty, who is now in her prime.

Unexpectedly, these two factory beauties would collide because of Li Dong.

For the men present, this scene was like a collision between Mars and Earth!

That's why everyone held their breath, and even their eating slowed down, for fear of missing any crucial details!

Li Dong quickly lowered his head, not daring to look any further.

It wasn't that he was afraid of Su Xiaotang, nor was it that he felt guilty.

Rather, he was new to the mine and didn't want to get involved in this turmoil.

If he were surrounded by two of the most beautiful women in the factory, he would definitely become the focus of attention. How would he be able to carry out his work after that?

Unexpectedly, what I feared most came to pass.

Just then, Li Dong suddenly felt the table sink, and when he looked up, he saw Su Xiaotang standing beside the table.

Her forehead was slightly warm, and strands of hair gently clung to her face.

As she spoke, Su Xiaotang looked intently at Li Dong, "Excuse me, is this place empty?"

Su Xiaotang's voice wasn't loud, but it was just enough for the workers at the next table who were peeking around to hear her.

These workers seemed to have discovered some secret, their faces burning with gossip.

They didn't even bother to eat, practically straining their ears to see how Liu Min would respond.

As they were talking, Su Xiaotang prepared to sit down.

Liu Min had always disliked this woman from Suzhou.

I always felt that the other party was just trying to gain fame and reputation, and that they were arrogant and self-righteous.

Normally, she wouldn't bother arguing with the other party.

But today was an exception; she felt that Su Xiaotang had come to provoke her.

No matter what, this is still the dining area of ​​the police station.

You, Su Xiaotang, are from the mining office, so it's understandable that you go to other places.

You come to my territory without even saying hello. What do you want?

Liu Min knew that Su Xiaotang's father was a long-time employee of the mine and had made sacrifices for the mine, making him a meritorious family member.

The mine's leaders not only dared not mistreat such family members, but also treated them with extra care.

Normally, Liu Min wouldn't bother arguing with Su Xiaotang.

After all, at her current age, she's past the stage of being jealous and competitive.

But I don't know what came over me today. In front of Li Dong, I suddenly wanted to compete with Su Xiaotang, as if I didn't want to lose face in front of Li Dong.

Your influence, Su Xiaotang, might be useful in the mining office, but it might not be so useful with me.

You treated me like I wasn't there, even in front of Li Dong.

If there is no response today, will I still be able to hold my head high in the police station from now on?

Even Liu Min herself couldn't explain why she had such an inexplicable thought.

So before Li Dong could even speak, Liu Min put down her chopsticks first, "Oh, isn't this Su from the finance department?"

"What, are there not enough seats for your mining crew? You have to come to our police station's territory to freeload?"

As if in a provocation, Liu Min deliberately moved closer to Li Dong as she spoke.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, her elbow lightly touched Li Dong's arm in an intimate gesture, as if deliberately trying to provoke Su Xiaotang's attention!

Su Xiaotang didn't respond to her words, but pulled out the chair opposite her and sat down.

The tray made a crisp sound when it was placed on the table. "I don't understand what Sister Min is saying. The canteen is a public area, and any mine worker can come and eat here."

"How did it come to be divided into our finance department and your police station?"

"Isn't that a bit too formal?"

"Lin Mei, don't you think so?"

Su Xiaotang originally wanted to garner some support, but after she finished speaking, there was complete silence behind her.

Turning around, I saw Lin Mei holding a tray, staring blankly at Li Dong.

Look at that infatuated look, he's practically drooling.

Su Xiaotang was so angry that her teeth itched, and her eyes were filled with murderous intent.

Lin Mei, you old man, you were the one who persuaded me to come here.

Now that I'm going up against Liu Min, you're just standing by and watching the show?

Why are you being so infatuated with me in front of Liu Min?

You are a human being too!

Su Xiaotang was so angry she almost gritted her teeth and reminded him, "What are you standing there for? I'm asking you a question."

After Su Xiaotang's reminder, Lin Mei suddenly realized, "Ahhh, what did you say?"

Su Xiaotang said with a dark face, "Sister Min said that this is the police station's dining area, and asked why we didn't go to the mine office to eat!"
