Let them offer their loyalty!-Chapter 491 - 315: You Are My Important Chess Piece in the City Hall (10k Words for Monthly Tickets!)_3

Only Bai Ru, because she had no involvement in the case, remained as the Section Chief of the household registration in the Civil Affairs Bureau.

During this time, Qiu Tu occasionally chatted with her via communicator.

At first, Bai Ru, possibly due to some unresolved feelings, did not pay much attention to Qiu Tu. But gradually, she started to respond.

Through her recent updates, Qiu Tu learned that she was not doing well: her husband and father’s issues led to her being ostracized at City Hall.

It was only because the household registration was a minor department and nobody cared about it, otherwise, she probably would have lost her seat too.

At times like these, Qiu Tu naturally expressed his concern in a timely manner and, using Commissioner Jiang’s secretary, Tao Yaoyao, he had resolved a few minor issues for Bai Ru.

This had made their relationship much more harmonious.

And today, contemplating contacting Qin Shuman in his "Inspector" role, Bai Ru was the first person who came to Qiu Tu’s mind.

After all... He had witnessed Qin Shuman’s capabilities: they were very impressive.

And she had an exceptional talent for intelligence gathering.

Even though Qiu Tu and Qin Shuman were in their honeymoon phase, Qin Shuman would definitely have intimate knowledge of the information concerning the people around Qiu Tu.

So... Qiu Tu felt that if he wanted to conceal his identity, he must use someone unknown to Qin Shuman.

Therefore... he approached Bai Ru and talked to her about the issue.

Now, looking at the results, everything had indeed turned out as Qiu Tu had anticipated…

With this in mind, Qiu Tu couldn’t help but glance at Bai Ru.

Although they were both young wives, compared to the fiery Tan Huimin and the unrestrained Liu Fuping, the timid Bai Ru was more gentle and intellectual.

This also matched more closely with Qiu Tu’s impression of a young wife.

Seeing Bai Ru had completed the task he assigned, Qiu Tu nodded at her warmly, and then said, "Thank you, Section Chief Bai."

"You really helped me out this time."

Hearing Qiu Tu’s words, Bai Ru lowered her head to her full, round chest and said softly, "It’s no problem. I am glad to help Qiu... Minister Qiu."

Possibly because she had mistakenly referred to Qiu Tu’s position, she added softly, "Minister Qiu’s promotion has been really rapid."

"I remember when you were a section chief, as if it was just yesterday, but in the blink of an eye, you’re already the minister of the Political Department."

Qiu Tu smiled at her words.

He wanted to joke, "It’s all thanks to your husband, your father." but was afraid that would be too harsh.

So he simply nodded faintly and said, "It’s all a matter of chance."

Bai Ru certainly knew this was Qiu Tu’s polite way of brushing off the topic. So she smiled gently and then added, "But, I’m a bit surprised that Minister Qiu entrusted me with such an important matter."

"After all, we haven’t known each other for that long."

Qiu Tu heard this and simply smiled, "Because I have a way to ensure that you would never leak any information."

"And besides... I want to work more closely and in depth with Section Chief Bai."

"After all... City Hall is the core of the city. I need some of my own people... "

Struck by Qiu Tu’s words, Bai Ru was momentarily stunned, about to inquire what he meant by these statements...

But just then, the communicator in Qiu Tu’s pocket began to ring "ring ring ring".

Qiu Tu quickly made a silencing gesture, then he reached into his pocket and took out his communicator.

As expected, the name displaying on the screen was Qin Shuman.

Qiu Tu pressed the answer button, and from the other end came Qin Shuman’s pleasant voice, "What are you up to, Minister Qiu~~~?"

"Do you have time to meet tonight?"

"I kind of miss you."

Despite her recent promotion to the head of the Security Department, it seemed that Qin Shuman had not changed in her demeanor towards Qiu Tu...
