Hearing Tao Yaoyao''s thinly veiled threat, a hint of amusement flickered through Qiu Tu''s eyes.
Actually, Qiu Tu wasn''t the least surprised by the authority Tao Yaoyao possessed.
Because, after the first encounter with Tao Yaoyao, Qiu Tu, wanting to know his friend as well as his foe, had already inquired about Tao Yaoyao''s identity and rank from Liu Fuping beforehand.
ording to Liu Fuping, being the confidential secretary to Commissioner Jiang, Tao Yaoyao''s rank was not low, the same as Qiu Tu''s, both were Principal Staff.
Moreover, as the messenger for Commissioner Jiang to the outside world, her power and influence were exceedingly terrifying, far exceeding that of ordinary division heads like Qiu Tu.
——Whether it was the various departments of City Hall, the various divisions of the Investigation Bureau, or the various units of the military, they all needed to give her face.
If she called the high-level executives of the three major institutions, those executives would think very carefully about the implications of her words.
After all, no one knew whether her words would represent Commissioner Jiang''s stance.
This resulted in her being arguably the most powerful division head in the entire Xinjie City.
She was acimed as the "Second Commissioner" of Xinjie City.
This was also the reason she was so arrogant and overbearing.
Because... she represented Commissioner Jiang on the outside.
However, Tao Yaoyao might not know that... the reason Qiu Tu was teasing her today was precisely because of this identity of hers.
Qiu Tu, who had once been a confidant of Yan Chen, knew how convenient it was to act under the cover of these big shots.
He had already lost the halo of Yan Chen''s protection and had to keep a low profile for the time being.
But if he could take down the woman before him, then through her unique status, he could quietly open up the situation again in the various departments of Xinjie City.
This was a dark move that couldn''t be spoken to outsiders...
Thinking this, Qiu Tu continued to follow his own n.
He "Oh?" made a sound, feigned an expression of surprise, and then said, "I hadn''t realized Commissioner Jiang trusted Secretary Tao so much."
"It seems I was too hasty just now."
Seeing Tao Yaoyao''s expression slightly soften, Qiu Tu swiftly changed his tone, "However... I think Secretary Tao should still consult with Commissioner Jiang about this matter."
"After all, this is a very important issue. If you overstep and agree on behalf of Commissioner Jiang and then there''s a problem, you won''t be able to bear the responsibility."
"You!" Tao Yaoyao truly didn''t expect that, after revealing her "status," Qiu Tu would still dare to be so confrontational with her.
No, it wasn''t confrontation, it was straightforward sarcastic ridicule of her pretentious behavior and overstepping her authority.@@novelbin@@
This was a kind of grievance she had never experienced sinceing to Xinjie City and bing the confidential secretary to Commissioner Jiang.
Thinking this, her eyes narrowed, and a dangerous glint flickered in her elongated eyes.
But Qiu Tu acted as if he hadn''t noticed at all, looking at her calmly, without giving in.

Truth be told, it was only because Tao Yaoyaocked propriety as a host and didn''t pour a cup of tea for Qiu Tu; otherwise, he would have definitely taken a couple of sips just to infuriate her.
The atmosphere in the room quieted down for a moment.
One second, two seconds, three seconds...
Just as Qiu Tu began to worry he''d taken it too far, Tao Yaoyao''s face suddenly blossomed into a dangerous smile.
Her upward-curved eyeliner seemed to dance as she reached into the deep cleavage at her chest to pull out a small, specially mademunicator and then ced it suggestively in front of Qiu Tu...
"Sure. Since Chief Qiu has requested it, I will certainly report to Commissioner Jiang."
"When Commissioner Jiang makes a decision, I will take the initiative to contact you."
As she said this, she paused, smiling, "However... I cannot guarantee when Commissioner Jiang will have the time to hear my report about this matter."
Qiu Tu had already anticipated Tao Yaoyao''s direction of counter-attack, so he indifferently picked up themunicator from the table.
Themunicator was warm to the touch, as if carrying Tao Yaoyao''s body heat.
Qiu Tu brought it to his nose and smelled it, detecting a faint scent of milk.
The smile on Qiu Tu''s face deepened, "No problem. If Commissioner Jiang is not avable, I will go to find him in person."
Hearing Qiu Tu''s ambiguous yet measured response, Tao Yaoyao''s nted eyes narrowed.
She snorted lightly and then got up and left.
The sound of her high heels striking the floor was like hasty drumbeats, each step revealing the displeasure of its owner.
But to Qiu Tu, it seemed just right.
The "Emotional Fraud Manual" outlines thirty-six strategies for dealing with women: [Stand Out From the Crowd].
If a woman is naive, then take her to experience the world. If a woman has rich experience, then offer her the prosaic life.
What a woman is ustomed to, she won''t find precious. It''s only when you present her with something she has never or seldom experienced that you will appear unique.
So, when encountering a beauty, one must not be a fawning admirer; there are too many admirers around her already.
And when meeting a woman like Tao Yaoyao, who isn''t short of tterers, one must not indulge her...
Of course, the premise is not to overdo it.
With that in mind, Qiu Tu silently recalled Tao Yaoyao''s personality traits from what he learned from Liu Fuping, as well as her expressions just now, and felt... there probably wouldn''t be a problem.
Thinking this, Qiu Tu calmly took out the specially mademunicator Tao Yaoyao had given him.
Turning it on, he checked it. Inside, there was just one number. It should be Tao Yaoyao''s.
Qiu Tu then took out another twomunicators and that ancient coin from his pocket.
One man, fourmunication devices; it was quite something. Add to that his rtionships with Tang Feifei and Liu Fuping...
