At that moment, Zheng Tao's body was shaken violently. He raised his head suddenly and looked at the person in front of him in disbelief.
His eyes were full of astonishment, obviously he didn't expect to hear the name "Lariluo" from the mouth of the figure in front of him.
When the figure saw this, he chuckled, threw the ancient coin directly into Zheng Tao's hand, and said, "Check the token of His Highness La Riluo."
Hearing this, Zheng Tao took the token with trembling hands.
The coin had been played with in that figure's hands for a long time, so it was a bit warm to hold.
Zheng Tao carefully inspected the token according to the inspection method La Riluo taught him.
After confirming that it was La Riluo's token, he respectfully handed the token back to the figure with both hands, and then looked at the figure with complicated eyes, "Sir, I didn't expect that you are also a disciple of His Highness La Riluo."
The figure reached out to take the simple coin, and then asked with a bit of ridicule, "otherwise, do you think you were really selected and promoted to deputy director based on your strength?"
Zheng Tao:.
Seeing Zheng Tao's embarrassed face, the figure chuckled, as if he was laughing at Zheng Tao for being so naive and really believing that pie in the sky would fall.
This world has no background and no strength. Even if you lose the pie, it won’t be your turn!
However, that figure also knew that the next plan still relied on Zheng Tao. So he did not continue to mock Zheng Tao, but paused and casually regained some face for Zheng Tao, "Of course. Apart from the relationship between us
In addition, your promotion is indeed related to your ability."
Sure enough, Zheng Tao's face brightened slightly when he heard this.
Seeing this, the figure continued to talk about the topic. He said seriously, "I know that you are not actually a believer of Her Highness La Riluo, but you have only received the 'favor' of Her Highness La Riluo."
Hearing "favor", Zheng Tao clenched his hands slightly.
That figure said, "But since you have received favor from His Highness, you have been marked by His Highness and are destined to be His Highness's disciple. Therefore, you must do things for His Highness."
"And now His Highness needs you and your wife to make a small sacrifice. You should know what to do, right?"
Speaking of this, the figure paused.
Perhaps he was worried about pushing Zheng Tao too much, so he softened his tone and said, "And you don't need to feel any psychological pressure."
"Your wife just works as a full-time secretary for Qiu Tu."
"It's not like she's going to betray herself."
"Although Qiu Tu is a bit of a jerk in his behavior, he still has his own bottom line. He will not attack such a sensitive position easily."
"So, as long as your wife is careful, nothing will happen."
Hearing the figure's words, Zheng Tao's expression was still a little hesitant.
He obviously didn't want to accept this task. But he thought of La Riluo, thought of that terrible evil god, and thought that his life and fortune were in the hands of the other party.
After hesitating for ten seconds, he finally surrendered.
This is actually not his fault.
There are only two choices before him now.
One is to obey the big shot in front of you. Not only can you continue to maintain your status as director, but you may also rise to the top.
The other is to refuse the big man in front of you. Not only may you be given up, but you may also be executed by La Riluo.
It seems like he has two choices, but in fact he has no choice at all.
Thinking like this, Zheng Tao felt infinite despair in his heart. He felt that he should not have accepted La Riluo's 'favor' in the first place.
If it hadn't happened back then, maybe he wouldn't be in the predicament he's in now.
But at this point, he had no choice but to go on. So he took a deep breath and said, "Yes, sir. I accept this task."
Seeing that Zheng Tao finally agreed, a smile finally appeared on that figure's face.
He smiled, clapped his hands, and said, "Very good. It seems that His Highness did not misjudge you."
"Then the rest depends on you and your wife."
"When you go back, you must do a good job as your wife."
"Let her accept this task willingly and not reveal any flaws."
"Qiu Tu is a very cautious and sensitive person. It is not easy to gain his trust."
"Your wife may have to think of many ways or some clever ideas to please him before he can slowly accept it."
"And only if he accepts your wife, completely trusts your wife, and treats your wife as one of his own."
"Only by your wife can you get enough critical information from him, and at some critical moments, you can really use your trump card."
Hearing the figure say "your wife", Zheng Tao felt extremely harsh.
Especially when he heard that figure asking his wife to please Qiu Tu and take care of Qiu Tu, he felt even more unspeakably aggrieved.
But now that the matter has come to this, he can no longer object. So he can only exhale heavily, "Yes, sir. Then I will go back and have a good chat with my wife."
Hearing this, the figure said "Yeah", then waved his hand gently, "Then step back."
When Zheng Tao saw this, he also saluted angrily, and then left the office with his head lowered.
After Zheng Tao left, the office door slowly closed. Only that figure was left in the entire office.
He was sitting behind the desk, playing with the ancient coin with gentle eyes, just playing with it so gently.
After a moment, he gently threw the coin on the table.
The next second, the coin slowly vaporized, and La Riluo's delicate head appeared on the desk.
She still has the beauty of a mature woman, like a passionate bar girl, the desire in her eyes seems to burn everything.
When he saw La Riluo, the figure bowed slightly and saluted, "Your Highness, you just heard that although Zheng Tao accepted it, he was obviously still unwilling. I'm worried that if he doesn't do a good job, it will affect
to your layout."
Speaking of this, the figure paused slightly, and then added, "In addition, does His Highness pay too much attention to Qiu Tu?"
Hearing the figure's words, La Riluo smiled evilly, and then said with a strategizing expression, "Pay attention? The secrets in Qiu Tu's body deserve my attention."
"Moreover, not only does he have secrets, he also holds several key intelligence lines in his hands."
Speaking of this, La Riluo looked at the figure in front of her with her beautiful face, and said with a sweet smile, "And some of the information in those intelligence lines doesn't even exist for you."
"So, if Zheng Tao's wife can really lurk around Qiu Tu and get some valuable information from him, I think it will be worth the cost."
"After all, during the period when Moonlight Lake is about to be born, any additional valuable information may have a great impact on the entire outcome."
"As for Zheng Tao." After saying this, La Riluo smiled contemptuously, "He was just an idle boy that I inadvertently set up back then."
"If it works, that's best. If it doesn't, I'll shut him up."
"As long as you don't have any problems with the Exploration Agency, everything else doesn't matter."
at the same time.
Zheng Tao walked heavily and left the office that changed his destiny.
Stepping into the elevator on the 12th floor, he pressed the button for the second floor. As the elevator slowly descended, Zheng Tao felt that his whole heart was a little heavy.
To be honest, even though he had accepted the mission from the big shot, Zheng Tao still didn't know how to tell his wife about it.
What could he say?
Tell your wife that you need your wife to serve another man? To be another man's secretary?
Or did he say that he lost her to another man in a bet?
When he thought of this, Zheng Tao felt extremely regretful.
He felt that he shouldn't have taken the elevator when he entered heaven, and should have calmed down and not accepted Qiu Tu's bet. Otherwise, he wouldn't have caused so many things.
"Ding!" The elevator reaches the second floor.
The elevator door slowly opened.
Zheng Tao slowly walked back to his office with an expressionless face.
Arriving at the door of his office and standing at the door, Zheng Tao sighed heavily, then took out his key and prepared to open the door.
As a result, just when he inserted the key into the office door, the office door suddenly opened by itself.
Zheng Tao looked up with a confused look on his face, and then saw his wife Tan Huimin standing at the door, then looking at him with a gentle face, "Sir, are you back?"
Seeing that Zheng Tao was not angry because of his slip of the tongue, Tan Huimin stuck out her tongue cutely, and then said with a smile, "I just brought some documents to your office and found that you were not there, so I cleaned your office.
"
After hearing Tan Huimin's words, Zheng Tao raised his eyes and looked at his office.
The office, which was a bit messy before I left, has now become extremely neat and clean.
Not only was the floor swept and mopped, but all the documents were placed on the table in categories.
And that's all.
Maybe she found that the rice in the lunch box had gone cold, so Tan Huimin went to ask someone to make a new one. Now it is placed on her table, exuding the slightest trace of heat.
Seeing this scene, Zheng Tao suddenly felt his throat was extremely dry.
He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but after opening his mouth several times, he finally spit out only two words, "Thank you."
Tan Huimin didn't notice her husband's weirdness. She stuck her head out and looked around. When she saw no one noticed, she quickly pulled Zheng Tao into the office.
Then she closed the door and pushed Zheng Tao to the desk.
"I know you must have missed a meal because you worked overtime today."
"So, I asked someone to cook two more dishes for you. It's hot now, so eat it while it's hot."
After saying that, maybe she was afraid that Zheng Tao would blame herself, Tan Huimin said a little uneasily, "I don't think it will take long to eat."
"Only when you are full can you have the strength to work, right?"
Looking at the several dishes in the lunch box on the table, Zheng Tao felt even more bitter.
He was silent for two seconds, finally nodded, then sat down and started eating.
While eating, Tan Huimin just sat opposite him with her chin in her hands, looking at Zheng Tao quietly.
Zheng Tao might have been a little embarrassed, so he lowered his head to eat and asked, "What are you looking at me doing?"
Tan Huimin said softly, "I just feel that it is not easy for you and it is very hard."
She said, "Over the years, you have suffered so much and done so many things, and finally became the deputy director with great difficulty."
"And I haven't been able to help you. I can't even take care of you when you eat or sleep."
"Sometimes, I feel a little useless myself."
Hearing Tan Huimin's words, Zheng Tao paused slightly with the chopsticks in his hand.
As a political creature, he was not moved when he heard his wife's heartwarming confession. He only had interests to consider.
So. He was silent for a long time, and then he seemed to have made up his mind. While lowering his head to pick up the vegetables, he asked tentatively, "Huimin, do you really think so?"
Tan Huimin nodded slightly, "Yes. I have always felt sorry for you in the past two years."
The movements in Zheng Tao's hands became even slower, as if what he was holding were not chopsticks, but two rocks weighing ten thousand kilograms.
He lowered his head and said slowly, "Then if you can help me, are you willing to help me?"
When Tan Huimin heard this, she said innocently, "Of course I am willing. As long as I can help you, I am willing to do anything."
Hearing Tan Huimin's words, Zheng Tao slowly raised his head, his eyes became extremely deep and dark, "Then I hope you will stay with Qiu Tu these days."
Tan Huimin:??
Perhaps because she was not very familiar with the Bureau of Investigation, Tan Huimin almost didn't realize who Qiu Tu was for a while.
She searched her brain for a long time before she remembered that Qiu Tu was the Deputy Director of Operations (Zhengke) who slapped her husband in the face yesterday.
She was stunned for a second, and then asked, "I'm going to accompany him? What do you mean?"
Facing his wife, Zheng Tao certainly couldn't speak too directly.
So he could only say half-truthfully, "You also know that Qiu Tu is my mortal enemy."
"A few days ago, he made me lose face. I lost such a big person in front of so many agents from the Bureau of Investigation."
"And today, he was promoted to deputy minister of the Political Department."
"I'm really worried that after he climbs over me, he will suppress me and deal with me."
"So, I need a trustworthy person to lurk next to him, gain his trust, pay attention to his every move, and report to me at any time."
Hearing Zheng Tao's words, Tan Huimin was stunned for a moment, and then he said hesitantly, "But. I am your secretary or your wife. How can I get to him, and how can he trust me?"
After hearing Tan Huimin's question, Zheng Tao finally seemed to have made up his mind.
He took a deep breath and then said slowly, "It's very simple. Because. I made a bet with him and lost you to him."
"So, you can go to him at any time as long as you want."
Hearing Zheng Tao's words, Tan Huimin frowned on her beautiful oval face and looked at her husband in disbelief.——
