Rebirth: I Became Mr.President's Beloved-Chapter 135: Song Baiyan’s Office

Suddenly hearing the name Song Baiyan, Tang Li slightly froze in confusion.

Gao Wenlan continued, "Old Wang told me that it was Bai Yan who brought you to my house that day, I don’t recall the Song Family having such a young girl."

"I have no relation with the Song Family," Tang Li honestly said, "Last time I went to Shangbu with Minister Song’s younger brother, and later when returning to the Capital, Minister Song gave us a ride to the station."

Mentioning the name Minister Song again, she spoke without hesitation or ambiguity.

Having said that, Tang Li paused for a moment and continued, "If there’s really any connection, it would be that Minister Song knows my mother. Because of this, Minister Song has helped me many times."

Gao Wenlan nodded, "That makes sense."

Then she instructed the driver to start the car and turned to Tang Li, "I need to go to the Ministry of Finance now. Old Wang asked me to bring something for Bai Yan, and since you also know him, let’s go together and afterwards, I will drive you back to school."

"I can go back on my own," Tang Li did not want to go to the Ministry of Finance, "Just a bit further and there’s a metro station, I can change to a bus at Wuhong Street to get to school, you don’t need to specially give me a ride."

"Why so coy, if I said I’ll take you then I will."

Gao Wenlan glanced at her, "You said you were like Ying Xuaner not even half an hour ago, and now you’ve become Ying Xu. The Ministry of Finance doesn’t have a man-eating monster, what’s there to be afraid of?"

"..." Tang Li could not find words to refute.

She couldn’t tell Gao Wenlan that it was because she did not want to see Song Baiyan.

In the afternoon, the car stopped on the north side of National Square.

The Ministry of Finance, located north of Tan Palace, is a building in classical Greek column style, very extensive in size, intricately carved and majestic. Tang Li got out of the car and immediately noticed the two national flags fluttering sharply in the wind, as well as the bronze statue of S country’s first Finance Minister at the entrance of the Ministry of Finance.

In a previous life, Tang Li read a description of the Ministry of Finance in the newspaper, stating it was the national treasury, where all major financial policies of S country were formulated, and also the headquarter of the money printing press.

Tang Li felt, at least visually, this description was not an exaggeration.

On the Ministry’s steps, people occasionally passed by carrying briefcases and wearing suits.

The perimeter of the square was full of various luxury cars.

With Gao Wenlan’s identity, entering the Ministry of Finance was not difficult.

The Finance Minister’s office was on the third floor.

Exiting the elevator, Tang Li witnessed what efficiency meant for the first time, seeing a Finance Minister accompanied by over a dozen secretaries, each with their specific duties, wearing name tags, walking around with documents or handling official duties over the phone in foreign languages.

With the arrival of Gao Wenlan, a male secretary quickly came to greet them, "The Minister is in a meeting, I will take you to the office first."

It was a very spacious office.

Tang Li, stepping on the thick carpet and surveying the neoclassical Baroque style décor, could only think of two words: power and dignity.

On the vintage large desk, various documents awaiting review were laid out.

The secretary left after showing the guests in.

"Why isn’t it in the bag?" Gao Wenlan flipped through her handbag and didn’t find the item Wang Yangming asked her to bring for Song Baiyan, then suddenly remembered leaving it in the car. She stood up from the sofa and said to Tang Li, "Wait here, I will go downstairs for a moment."

Hearing this, Tang Li turned around and Gao Wenlan had already hurried out.
