Signing In At The Civil Affairs Bureau, I Was Rewarded With A Gorgeous Wife

Chapter 375 What They Say Online Is Right!

Si Ming now looked sincerely frightened and anxious. In fact, he was pleading for mercy from Song Yun and his team, since they hadn't been of any help during this operation!

They had even transmitted some incorrect intelligence during the early stages!

If Song Yun and his team reported back to the higher-ups and implicated him, the consequences would be unimaginable!

What Si Ming didn't know was that his deeds, along with the corruption of the local department, had long been clear to those at the top. They were just waiting for Song Yun and his team to finish their task before carrying out a major purge!

"Now that the business is taken care of, why don't I treat you to a meal?"

Si Ming said somewhat obsequiously, "Moreover, I can't be sure if the enemy has left any tricks behind, so I will need to trouble you to help escort the transport."

"Since you put it like that, it would be difficult for us to refuse. Let's see the task through to the end, get in the car."

Song Yun and the others got into a large off-road vehicle, and Si Ming finally breathed a sigh of relief after directing everyone to load the photolithography machine.

He personally went to drive the car Song Yun and his team were in.

The convoy slowly set off and managed to return to headquarters without any incidents.

It was only at the headquarters, well-guarded by a large force, that everyone's tense hearts settled. After all, even if the enemy had formidable reach, they wouldn't dare to attack so blatantly.

"Gentlemen, I've already made reservations at the restaurant. Shall we go now?"

Song Yun glanced at the time and hesitated. If they hurried, he could get his private plane to come over, and he could be back in Magic Capital by dawn.

But the hope in Si Ming's eyes was very earnest as he looked at Song Yun with a plea.

Forget it, the higher-ups will make their decision; dining wouldn't change anything.

"Then we'll trouble Director Si."

Song Yun said with a smile.

Si Ming drove several people to a restaurant with very luxurious decor. Si Ming went to the front desk to check the reservation, while Song Yun and the others chatted with each other.

"Brother Yun, I'm afraid you won't be able to return to Magic Capital anytime soon. My grandfather just texted me to bring you with me back to Forty-nine City. The higher-ups want to see you!"

Ouyang Jie said, looking at his phone with a beaming smile.

"What? I was thinking of flying back today."

Song Yun sighed, "The closer it gets to Qing Qing's due date, the more anxious I become. Could you please explain to the old man that I won't attend this meeting? I don't care about the credit; just a glance would suffice."

A cold glint flashed in Si Ming's eyes. As a head of a department with real power, he couldn't believe he was being treated like this by the staff of a restaurant while trying to have a meal!

Once he got back, he would definitely check who the owner behind this restaurant was!

"Sir, you cannot go in!"

The female manager, seeing Si Ming walk inside on his own, panicked. She called the front desk for security while trying to stop him.

But she was just a woman after all and was pushed down to the floor by Si Ming with a simple shove.

Si Ming then arrived at the door of the private room he had booked and upon pushing the door open, discovered four foreigners sitting inside!

Seeing this, Si Ming was livid. He went straight up to the female manager, grabbed the collar of her shirt from behind, dragged her to the door of the private room, and asked coldly, "Is this what you call an unforeseen incident?"

"Put me down this instant, you thug! Or else I'll call the police and accuse you of harassment!"

The female manager looked embarrassed, being watched by the entire restaurant, and it made her furious.

Struggling in mid-air, she shouted, "In Huaxia, we believe that visitors are guests! We want people from outside to feel the warmth of home, and your rude actions are a disgrace to our country!"

"Heh..."

Si Ming was almost laughing out of anger, "So you're saying you don't abide by any rules at all?"

"What rules! You said you booked a room, as if I can say you didn't! And even if you did book, did you pay a deposit? You didn't, right! I saw these gentlemen come in without a place to sit, so I arranged for them here. What's the problem with that?

I read online that Huaxia men are all so petty! No wonder women look down on you!"

The female manager yelled loudly.

At that moment, one of the foreigners stood up and said earnestly, "Sir, no matter what happened, can you please put this lady down? Treating a woman so rudely doesn't sit well with me."

"Do you think it's your place to speak!"

Si Ming snorted coldly and said, "I had called ahead to book this room, but this woman gave my place to you! So, how's the food?"

"This..."

The foreigner was taken aback and quickly waved his hand, saying, "Sorry, we didn't know what was going on. As soon as we came in, this lady brought us to this room... we honestly didn't know it was already reserved."
