300: Chapter 300: Why Should I Help You?
Lin Shuang couldn’t bother to ask further, driving the red-flag sedan steadily towards the direction of the Hai City Business Bureau building.
Su Wanqiao sat on the backseat, constantly feeling the seat to be chillingly cold, somewhat damp?
She reached out and touched the leather of the seat, finding it slightly moist.
“Why is this seat a little damp?” Su Wanqiao asked in confusion.
Sitting beside her, her sister Su Zhiyan also felt the seat, “Yes, the entire backseat are all wet, aren’t they?”
Hearing this, Lin Shuang couldn’t help but startle.
“Just now, when I helped Dr.
Ning to escape, she had wounds on her body.
I used clean water to treat her wounds, so the water must have splashed onto the seat,” Lin Shuang casually made up an excuse.
Su Wanqiao didn’t suspect anything but simply wiped the seat with a tissue.
However, her sister Su Zhiyan sitting beside her had a complex look in her beautiful eyes.
Could it be that this scoundrel Lin Shuang…did something indecent with some woman in the car?
Su Zhiyan gazed at Lin Shuang, who was driving in the front row, with complicated feelings in her beautiful eyes.
But she didn’t expose him.
Ten minutes later, the red-flag sedan stopped at the entrance of the Hai City Business Bureau.
Su Wanqiao and the others got out of the car and entered the building.
They were taken to an antique meeting room.
At that moment, in the meeting room, an elder with silver hair sat in a chair, back facing them, slowly smoking.
“I pay my respects to Elder Xiang,” Su Wanqiao said with reverence as she walked into the meeting room.
“Miss Su, you’ve arrived,” the old man’s aged voice echoed through the room as his chair slowly turned to face them.
This elder radiated an unyielding aura; although he was over 70 years old, he still exuded vigor.
The silver-haired elder’s deep gaze swept over the Su sisters and then settled on Lin Shuang.
“You are Lin Shuang?” the elder’s voice held a tinge of curiosity.
“I am, and you are?” Lin Shuang asked indifferently.
His gaze met the elder’s without a hint of awe, only equal eye contact.
The elder slowly said, “I am Xiang Beiqiang.”
Lin Shuang shook his head, “I don’t know you.”
This time, it was Elder Xiang Beiqiang who was taken aback.
This young man doesn’t know himself?
Su Wanqiao leaned towards Lin Shuang and explained, “Mr.
Xiang is the former head of Hai City.
Although he has stepped down, he still controls the Hai City Business Administration.”
The former city head?
Lin Shuang nodded slowly.
Even though he now knew the identity of the other party, Lin Shuang remained calm.
The head of the city was nothing more than that in his eyes.
“Please take a seat,” Elder Xiang Beiqiang gestured for Su Wanqiao and the others to sit down.
After sitting down, the elder’s gaze was deep and inscrutable as he looked intently at Su Wanqiao.
“Miss Su, I have been out of office for many years now.
Tell me, seeking me out this time…
what is it you wish to discuss?” Xiang Beiqiang said slowly.
With a serious look in her eyes, Su Wanqiao said, “Elder Xiang, you speak too modestly.
Even though you no longer hold your former position, you still have great influence in Hai City.
My reason for seeking you out is to ask for your help in resolving the conflict between the Su Family and the Du Family.”
Hearing this, Xiang Beiqiang’s gaze became profound as he looked at Su Wanqiao.
“Miss Su, as a mere retired official, what ability do I have to help you resolve a conflict?
You truly overestimate me,” Xiang Beiqiang slowly shook his head.
Su Wanqiao’s eyes were deep as she spoke, “Although you have stepped down, Mr.
Xiang, the network and connections you cultivated are still within the government.
Nowadays, in Hai City, including the entire Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai region, there are many students and followers of yours.
They hold high positions and control the local security.
Elder Xiang, I really need your help.”
“I hope you can step forward to help my Su Family.
You would be aiding the whole of Hai City,” Su Wanqiao earnestly requested.
Xiang Beiqiang shook his head, exhaling a ring of smoke, “Miss Su, pardon me for being direct, but why should I help you?”
The air in the meeting room grew still.
Su Wanqiao looked up at Xiang Beiqiang.
She suddenly spoke, “Elder Xiang, because I know what you want, and I, happen to be able to provide it.”
