As one of the new Three Giants of Xinjie City, Qiu Tu's treatment could now be said to be maxed out.
Whether it was dining, living, or traveling, everything was up to the highest standards of the Planning Area.
Not only was there a dedicated security team, but also a full staff from maids to butlers.
Although Chen Feng had transferred to the Administrative Office midway, he was quite capable.
Additionally, with his calm nature and meticulous, thorough approach, every arrangement was made impeccably.
Thus, Qiu Tu was very satisfied with the decision he had made initially.
Of course, the most important thing was that Chen Feng was Qiu Tu's absolute confidant, fully trustworthy.
In such arrangements of personal and security personnel, loyalty was more important than anything else.
Many bosses were sometimes not killed by enemies or outsiders, but rather by those closest to them...
Although Qiu Tu had the Divine Artifacts "Crisis Intuition" and "Loyalty Game," choosing reliable people for preliminary screening always reduced a lot of trouble...
At that moment, amidst these stringent defenses, Qiu Tu had a black cat on his lap, gently stroking it while chatting with the person sitting opposite him.
Having firmly secured his position as the Chief of the Investigation Bureau, Qiu Tu's demeanor had become even more refined, exuding an imposing presence without anger.
"Director Guan, I'm happy that you could meet with me tonight... but also not so happy."
As he said this, Qiu Tu slowly paused, then continued stroking the black cat and stopped talking.
The dimly lit drawing room, with a ceiling 7 meters high and a crystal chandelier hanging overhead, appeared like a huge sword suspended above.
The oppressive scene made Guan Weihua, sitting opposite Qiu Tu, feel increasingly pressured, with sweat forming on his forehead.
Perhaps unable to fathom the meaning behind Qiu Tu's words, Guan Weihua didn't dare to wipe off the sweat, only managing to awkwardly look at Qiu Tu, pondering how to respond.
He was somewhat quick-witted, so after a few seconds of rapid thoughts, he tentatively spoke up, "Chief, my lateness tonight has indeed fallen short of your expectations."
"But... as you know, I come from the Academic Faction, and I am naturally hesitant about changing allegiances."
"I hope you can forgive me."
Guan Weihua's words were not an excuse. Rather, he was simply explaining his reasons for coming to ally with Qiu Tu so late, so his words seemed very sincere.
Hearing his words, Qiu Tu's eyes, devoid of joy or sorrow, looked towards him, his hands gently resting on the black cat, as his slender fingertips slowly stroked the cat.
That commanding aura of high authority, combined with his calm composure, suddenly made Guan Weihua feel overwhelmed.
'Is this still the same person... who used to follow Bai Yu as a junior investigator?'
'The difference in temperament is so vast, it's like he's a completely different person.'
'Is it really "Body nurtures form, movement nurtures spirit"?'
At that moment, as Guan Weihua was silently marveling, Qiu Tu spoke again.
He said, "Director Guan, what you said does not serve as an excuse. Your niece, who is also from the Academic Faction, sided with me early on."
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Guan Weihua broke out in a profuse sweat again.
He awkwardly lowered his head, unsure of how to respond.
It must be said... he truly admired his own niece.
Initially, Guan Xiao had looked down on Qiu Tu, even showing open disdain towards him.
But after thoroughly understanding Qiu Tu's entire career progression and all his actions, she had changed her attitude completely and decisively, shifting her allegiance to Qiu Tu without a second thought.
At that time, Yan Chen had not yet fallen, Yu Zhengyi and Shi Youxin still firmly controlled the management chain, and Qiu Tu and Tang Feifei could be said to be struggling within the Investigation Bureau...
Thus, Guan Weihua had on more than one occasion called Guan Xiao to his office, urging her to distance herself from Qiu Tu so as not to be implicated by him!
But every time, Guan Xiao unhesitatingly refused, even boldly offering a written "Severance of Relationship Certificate" when Guan Weihua, furious, threatened to break off their relationship! She nearly infuriated Guan Weihua to death!
But... it was precisely because of Guan Xiao's early bet that she reaped an immensely rich reward!
Within just two months, she had transformed from being the head of the Political Department's espionage division to becoming the Head of the Political Department!
Ranking among the top three in terms of power within the Investigation Bureau.
Far surpassing Guan Weihua.
Looking back, those who had opposed Qiu Tu were either dead, arrested, or reassigned.
The comparison between Guan Weihua and Guan Xiao's foresight was evident.
This also caused Guan Weihua to blush, unable to raise his head after Qiu Tu mentioned Guan Xiao.
At that moment, possibly seeing that the time was right, Qiu Tu stopped his hand, and a smile appeared on his face, "But...."
As he was thinking this, Fang Tangtang shyly covered her face, then unfastened the belt around her waist.
The next second, her bathrobe slid off, revealing a body as pristine as white jade, meticulously sculpted.
Qiu Tu admitted that at that moment, his heartbeat seemed to have sped up momentarily.
But after all, he was a decent person. Plus, he still had that philosophical text to read tonight!
Thus, he lowered his head to look at the book "Existence" in his hands, once, twice... then continued reading!
"To hell with 'Existence,' the meaning of 'Existence' is in the Cao currency!"
Thinking those extremely vulgar, philosophy-insulting thoughts, Qiu Tu leaped out of bed, and amidst Fang Tangtang's screams, scooped her up and pressed her onto the bed....
