Chapter 1: The Eye-Catching Wedding

  "I'll go when I get there." Ning Fan responded very readily.

  Actually, Ning Fan didn't really want to go, but he had heard that Su Yu had already promised Song Wenbin over the phone that she would invite him over. He couldn't help Su Yu with what just happened, but this time, he could actually do it, so he simply agreed.

  As for the training base, it's actually temporarily not necessary for him to be in charge of it now.

  At this moment, Qingxue Group's Qingyun Branch, Song Wenbin sat in the boss chair of the manager's office, and the whole person looked very spirited.

  In the past few years, Qingxue Group's investment in Qingyun City has been almost negligible. With Chen Zixuan being wanted, almost everyone in Qingxue Group thinks that the weight of Qingyun Branch in the group will continue to decline, and it may even be dissolved at any time.

  Song Wenbin was also a high-level executive at Haicheng Company, and when President Zhao Qingxue proposed that someone go to the Qinyun branch as a manager, Song Wenbin was the only high-level executive who actively applied. At that time, Song Wenbin indeed came for Su Yun.

  But a few days ago, when Song Wenbin learned that Su Yun already had a boyfriend, he felt that he had made the biggest mistake of his life. However, at this moment, Song Wenbin discovered that coming to Qingyun City was actually the wisest decision of his life!

  Everyone thought that the Qingxue Group would give up on Qingyun City, but just two days ago, Zhao Qingxue quietly acquired the tourism company responsible for developing Mount Qingyun. At the same time, he decided to make the Mount Qingyun scenic area's tourism project a key project of the group. Song Wenbin, who had actively applied to come here, naturally got reused and was fully in charge of this project with an investment of over 1 billion!

  Just this morning, Song Wenbin went to the municipal government and learned that Qingxue Group was going to invest in the Qingyun Mountain Scenic Area. At that moment, Song Wenbin felt the courtesy of government officials towards him, even flattering him, which made Song Wenbin more confident and proud. At this moment, he had a feeling of being in power.

  Although Qingyun Pavilion belongs to Ning Fan, which makes Song Wenbin a bit uncomfortable, he is not too concerned about it. Now, he represents the Qingshuang Group, and now, he can even command the Qingyun Municipal Government to help him with things. What does a small Ning Fan count as?

  Su Yun must be mine! Song Wenbin was full of confidence, he had even envisioned the scene where he would pin Su Yun's plump body under his own.

  This fanciful scene suddenly made Song Wenbin's desire surge, he picked up the phone and dialed the internal line: "Jiang Yun, come in for a moment!"

  The soft knock on the door came quickly, and after getting Song Wenbin's permission, Jiang Yun walked in. She was dressed in a mature and sexy professional attire, which made Song Wenbin's heart burn even more.

  "Lock the door." Song Wenbin ordered.

  Jiang Yun naturally did as she was told, locked the door, and walked towards Song Wenbin with a flattering smile on her face: "Director Song, you wanted to see me about something?"

  "Take off your clothes." Song Wenbin's breathing became slightly heavier.

  "Director Song, you..." Jiang Yun seemed a bit hesitant.

  "What? Unwilling?" Song Wenbin's tone was clearly dissatisfied.

  "No, no, Director Song, I'm willing." Jiang Yun immediately flashed a charming smile, then took action.

  A few seconds later, Song Wenbin let out a low growl and pounced on Jiang Yun.

  When they left Xiangli Village Restaurant, it was already 1:30. Su Yu walked back to the company, while Ning Fan sent Su Yun back to the police station first.

  Su Yun's soft and plump body leaned tightly against Ning Fang's back once again, continuing to challenge Ning Fang's willpower.

  After sending Su Yun back to the police station, Ning Fan arrived at Qingxue Group at exactly two o'clock in the afternoon.

  Qingxue Group's only investment in Qingyun City is actually the Qingyun Building where Qingxue Group Qingyun Branch is located. This 19-story building has the top nine floors reserved for Qingxue Group itself, while the lower ten floors are rented out as office space.

  Although Qingyun City is just a small city, there are still many companies renting offices here, and these companies are actually mostly coming for the Qingshuang Group. Even if they have no business dealings with the Qingshuang Group, simply being in the same building as the Qingshuang Group can make people feel that their status is much higher.

  The security of the Qingyun Building is handled by the Qingshuang Group, and the security measures here are quite perfect. This is also one of the reasons why many companies choose to be here. However, because Su Yu had been waiting downstairs for Ning Fan all along, Ning Fan did not encounter any obstacles and followed Su Yu into the building smoothly, arriving at the 16th floor.

  The top three floors are reserved for Zhao Qingxue, the manager's office of Qingyun Company is on the 16th floor, and the VIP conference room is also on this floor.

  Su Yu brought Ning Fan to the VIP conference room, where there were already two men inside. One was over 40 years old with an extraordinary demeanor, who turned out to be Meng Xingguo, the current acting mayor of Qingyun City. Beside Meng Xingguo stood a man in his thirties, presumably his secretary.

  "Mayor Meng, Secretary Huang." Su Yu greeted the two somewhat awkwardly.

  Meng Xingguo stood up and walked towards Ning Fan, a warm smile on his face: "Is that Ning Fan? I've been wanting to meet you for a long time, finally got to see you."

  Meng Xingguo said as he stretched out his hand to Ning Fan, "Rumors are true, you're indeed extraordinary."

  "Mayor Meng is overpraising." Ning Fan smiled faintly and shook hands with Meng Xingguo.

  Su Yu on the side was quite surprised, this brother-in-law seemed to be very famous?

  "Hello, Ning Fan, I am Huang Tianlu, Secretary of Mayor Meng." The Secretary Huang also shook hands with Ning Fan.

  "Let's sit down first. Mr. Song seems quite busy and we might need to wait for a bit." Meng Xingguo smiled as he invited Ning Fan, and the three of them quickly took their seats.

  "Xiao Su, help us go and urge your Song Zong again." Meng Xingguo looked at Su Yu once more.

  "Alright, Mayor Meng." Su Yu hastily responded and quickly exited the door.

  Seeing Su Yu leave, Meng Xingguo lowered his voice: "Ning Fan, I just found out that Qingyun Pavilion is under your name. I suppose President Song invited you over to discuss the acquisition of Qingyun Pavilion?"

  "That's right." Ning Fan didn't deny it, he had already guessed that Meng Xingguo should be representing the municipal government to discuss investment with Qingxue Group. The fact that Deputy Mayor Meng Xingguo personally took action also proved the importance attached by the Qingyun Municipal Government to this investment of Qingxue Group.

  "Xiao Ning, Secretary Zhang has mentioned you to me before, saying that you're a very good young man. Your contributions to our city, although ordinary citizens may not know about them, but I and Secretary Zhang are well aware of them." Meng Xingguo changed his tone, putting on an air of humility and trying to get closer to Ning Fan, "Regarding the Qingyun Temple, can you tell me the truth? How much money do you want in order to sell it?"

  "Mayor Meng, I didn't mean to sell Qingyun Pavilion." Ning Fan replied directly, although Mayor Meng was very approachable and polite to him, but in fact, Ning Fan didn't have much good impression of Mayor Meng.

  It's not that Meng Xingguo did anything to displease him, but rather because Meng Haolu left a bad impression on him, and as a result, he also didn't have a good impression of Meng Haolu's father, Meng Xingguo.

  "Oh?" Meng Xingguo was somewhat surprised, "Xiao Ning, you really don't want to sell Qingyun Pavilion?"

  "Mayor Meng, I can tell you clearly that I will absolutely not sell Qingyun Pavilion." Ning Fan said with a nod.

  "This is a bit of trouble." Meng Xingguo muttered to himself and began to ponder.

  The conference room was pushed open, and a man and a woman walked in. It was Song Wenbin and Jiang Yun. Song Wenbin looked flushed, seemingly excited, while Jiang Yun's face still had a lingering blush.

  Ning Fan slightly furrowed his brow. As a former detective, he had always been perceptive and his intuition told him that Song Wenbin and Jiang Yun seemed to be doing something before they came here.

  "Director Song, Miss Jiang." Meng Xingguo and Huang Tianlu almost simultaneously stood up to greet Song Wenbin.

  Although Meng Xingguo is the acting mayor of Qingyun City, the Qingshuang Group behind Song Wenbin is a giant, and it's not an exaggeration to say that compared to the Qingshuang Group, the Qingyun City government is not worth mentioning. Therefore, Meng Xingguo has no choice but to be polite to Song Wenbin.

  "Mayor Meng, Secretary Huang, sorry about that, overslept." Song Wenbin smiled all over his face, hypocritically apologizing, but even Huang Tianlu could see that Song Wenbin's apology was actually insincere.

  "It's okay, it's okay. President Song is in charge of such a large company and has many things to attend to, so he must be careful to rest regularly." Meng Xingguo also had a smile all over his face, without any airs of being the mayor at all.

  "It's nothing, Mayor Meng is really busy with a million things to attend to every day." Song Wenbin continued to flatter.

  The two of them came and went, slapping each other on the back for a while before finally sitting down. Ning Fan couldn't help but feel some admiration for Mayor Meng Xingguo at this moment. It wasn't easy to attract investment like this either.

  Of course, if this investment is successful, it will also be a great achievement for Meng Xingguo.

  "Sorry, Mr. Ning, I just saw you here and delayed you." It wasn't until then that Song Wenbin pretended to have just discovered Ning Fan, and also hypocritically apologized.

  "Song, just say it directly, I'm busy." Ning Fan said calmly, he didn't have the interest to make small talk with Song Wenbin.

  "Mr. Ning, then I'll be straightforward, Su Yu told me that you don't want to sell Qingyun Pavilion?" Song Wenbin's eyes flashed with a hint of dissatisfaction, clearly displeased with Ning Fan's attitude, even the mayor was polite to him, and Ning Fan was just an ordinary citizen of Qingyun City, yet he said he was very busy, could he be busier than the mayor?

  "That's right, I won't sell Qingyun Pavilion." Ning Fang said calmly: "I came here just to tell you this, no matter what, I won't sell Qingyun Pavilion, so don't bother me with this again in the future."

  "Mr. Ning, you overestimate yourself, I'm busier than you and don't have time to waste on you." Song Wenbin's face changed slightly, and he coldly snorted, "I gave you a chance, since you don't want to negotiate, then there's no need for me to talk to you!"

  Turning to Meng Xingguo, Song Wenbin continued: "Mayor Meng, I'll make it clear now. If your city government can buy out Qingyun Pavilion, then our Qingshuang Group will increase its investment, and the scale of investment may exceed 1 billion yuan. But if you can't even handle this small matter, then forget about the investment!"
