Chapter 211: Token of Love

The group of young people stayed at North Ocean Company until around 6 PM, when Zhou Tonghui arranged to treat everyone to dinner.

Everyone walked together to a Chinese restaurant in Chinese Street, eating until around 9 PM.

As soon as it got dark, Zhou Tonghui, who had become enlightened, immediately gave Big Bai a look, and the latter instantly understood his meaning.

Big Bai sat in his chair and asked with furrowed brows: "Are we going to sit with the company executives later?"

"Yes," Zhou Tonghui immediately nodded in reply. "They'll all be involved in managing the association in the future - I've already arranged the place."

"Ah!" Big Bai replied and turned to look at Wawa and An Qiqi beside him. "There might be another gathering later."

"Oh, alright, we don't have anything else today," An Qiqi replied foolishly.

Big Bai scratched his head somewhat irritably, his expression somewhat helpless, as he kicked Su Tianyu under the table.

"Oh my, how can you be so stupid?" Wawa looked at An Qiqi with a sneer, saying sarcastically. "You still don't understand? They're going to drink with hostesses - they didn't plan to take us."

An Qiqi suddenly realized: "Ah, so that's what you meant?"

"We're all men, and going to business venues, you all... it's not very convenient," Big Bai explained softly. "I personally suggest you go home..."

"So you called us here just to be drivers?" An Qiqi pursed her lips and turned to look at Su Tianyu. "Fine then, Director Su, you all go have fun - we eyesores will take our leave."

"...No, if you want to go, let's all go together!" Su Tianyu replied forcing himself.

At these words, the looks the men in the room gave Su Tianyu were almost like seeing their father's murderer.

"Alright then, let's all go together," An Qiqi replied looking at Su Tianyu.

The two looked at each other as Su Tianyu blinked: "I mean, if, possibly, if possible, going home would still be..."

"Pah, scumbag!" Wawa cursed grinding her teeth.

"Hmph, we're still eyesores. Let's go, let's go!" Though An Qiqi spoke sarcastically, she also understood that dealing with "companies" like the Zhou family, business entertainment was unavoidable, so she had no real emotions in her heart and only decisively stood up, beckoning to Su Tianyu: "Come down with me."

"Alright!" Su Tianyu immediately put down his chopsticks and followed the two beauties out like an old eunuch.

"Are those two sparking?" Zhou Tonghui asked Big Bai.

"You just noticed?" Big Bai sneered, instructing softly: "People like Dog Six are pure idiots. Why do we need to find partners so early at our young age? Isn't that like giving up the whole pond? Let me tell you... men need experience, that's what gives flavor. I personally suggest whoring first, learning first..."

Zhou Tonghui looked at him eagerly: "Is it still not too late for me to learn now?"

"It's never too late - tonight I'll teach you how to turn the first page of life's experience book!" Big Bai had a whole set of rhetoric.

......

Downstairs, Su Tianyu trotted along escorting An Qiqi and Wawa back to the company entrance.

An Qiqi pulled open the trunk and took out an exquisite gift box, messily stuffing it to Su Tianyu: "For you."

Looking at the well-wrapped gift box, Su Tianyu immediately asked with a foolish smile: "What's this?"

"You'll know when you open it after you get back," An Qiqi seemed somewhat embarrassed as she hurriedly pulled open the car door and sat in the driver's seat. "Alright, we're leaving."

Su Tianyu held the gift box, feeling sweet in his heart as he stepped forward and bent down to stare at An Qiqi's delicate face without speaking.

"What are you doing?!" An Qiqi dodged backward somewhat fearfully - she felt like Su Tianyu was going to kiss her.

"If you don't want me to, I can not go tonight," Su Tianyu said profoundly.

An Qiqi immediately pursed her little lips: "Are you being fake, brother?! Get lost, quickly get lost!"

"I really can not go," Su Tianyu said tenderly. "Just say the word and I can castrate myself."

"Hahaha!" Wawa burst out laughing in the back seat. "Let's say, when it comes to being ruthless, you're still the most ruthless!"

"I feel a bit nauseous..." An Qiqi waved her pretty blushing face. "Go go, quickly go do what you need to do - we'll find a place to watch movies."

"Thank you for the gift," Su Tianyu said with a smile. "Drive carefully!"

"Mm, you... don't drink too much either," An Qiqi said before immediately closing the car door and driving away.

Su Tianyu watched them leave before looking down at the gift box and saying with a grin: "Hehe, basically got her."

......

In Dragon City.

Jing Yan walked out of a high-end restaurant with Zhang Ming and bent down to get in the car.

During this period, Jing Yan had attended many city development meetings and had separately met and dined with people from the city council, Zha'nan port, and the Police Bureau.

After making this round of visits, the information Jing Yan received was all very uniform.

The Police Bureau, city council, including Zha'nan port's navy, anti-smuggling department, and Marine Police - their meaning between the lines was all supporting Wei Xiangzuo.

Jing Yan understood clearly that with Wei Xiangzuo's influence, he definitely couldn't move so many big shots to speak for him, so the one really using connections and spreading money must be the Yu family.

From this angle, Jing Yan was even more unwilling to let Wei Xiangzuo become Zha'nan's leader. But the reality was that Wei Xiangzuo had already gained momentum - if you didn't accept him, Zha'nan couldn't be stabilized. If trouble started again, the Dock Workers Association would also have difficulty answering to those above.

In the car, Jing Yan sat with his hands in his sleeves saying softly: "Old Zhang, I think let's settle Zha'nan's matter!"

"Give it to Wei Xiangzuo?" Zhang Ming asked.

"If we don't give it to him, Zha'nan will definitely cause trouble again," Jing Yan replied with a sigh. "If things really get out of control and Wei Xiangzuo directly announces pulling his team to operate independently, breaking away from our Dock Workers Association, what can you do?!"

Zhang Ming slowly nodded.

"Let's stabilize things first," Jing Yan said with hands in sleeves. "It's just one Zha'nan - give it to him, let's see what waves the Yu family can make."

"Things might not necessarily develop badly," Zhang Ming also added. "After all, Wei Xiangzuo is still our person - his cooperation with the Yu family was purely out of necessity. Stabilize him, give some benefits to Zha'nan - Wei Xiangzuo won't necessarily wear the same pants as the Yu family forever."

"Mm," Jing Yan nodded slowly and after pondering for a while said again: "With Wei Xiangzuo coming up, we also need to arrange someone for Longkou District. I've decided to let Gu Baishun be gang leader - I'll parachute in a hall master for him, and in the future, you watch this side."

"You feel that Gu Baishun isn't an idiot?" Zhang Ming asked very perceptively.

"If he has ability, Longkou will really be his; if he has no ability, it's not too late to replace him later," Jing Yan said looking out the window. "Whether he's a rock or true gold will be clear after roasting him in Longkou for a while."

"Good."

......

That night, Zhang Ming called Gu Baishun again to notify him of the news that he would soon take over as Longkou District gang leader.

An hour later, Zhang Ming's secretary again took away a pair of valuable antiques from Gu Baishun's home.

With this, the small fortune accumulated by Gu Tongshan while alive was squandered eighty percent by Gu Baishun in less than half a year.
