The pinnacle of power: starting with having sex with a female leader-Chapter 472: Xiao Cheng, What Are You Waiting For?

Chapter 472: Chapter 472: Xiao Cheng, What Are You Waiting For?

Time flew by, and before they knew it, nine o’clock arrived.

The previously somewhat noisy queue suddenly quieted down, as two figures appeared around the corner of the corridor ahead.

It was Lin Jiangnan and Zhang Gao.

"Governor."

"Good morning, Governor."

The leaders waiting at the door respectfully greeted Lin Jiangnan, having been unable to secure an appointment the night before, they had come early in the morning to report on work.

Lin Jiangnan gave a slight nod to the group, then casually walked into his office and closed the large door behind him.

Cheng Yuan watched, his blood boiling with excitement. Was this the power of authority?

Was this the dominance of the second in command in Handong?

These department-level leaders, in front of him, were like elementary school students.

It was incredibly exhilarating!

At this moment, Cheng Yuan felt a strong desire for power!

If he had the governor’s authority, would this leader dare to instruct him to buy breakfast?

Zhang Ming glanced at Cheng Yuan indifferently, with a smirk on his face and said, "Young man, the governor has arrived, weren’t you going to report on work? Hurry over there!"

Cheng Yuan checked his phone and replied respectfully, "Leader, it’s only nine o’clock, still half an hour to go."

Pfft...

Zhang Ming couldn’t help but laugh.

"If the governor was really going to meet you at nine-thirty, why are you standing so far back? Why hasn’t Director Zhang arranged for you to move forward?"

Cheng Yuan said with an awkward smile, "It wouldn’t be proper to stand in front of the leaders. We still need to follow the rules."

Zhang Ming was amused. Was this kid serious?

Waiting times are usually agonizing, but today, Zhang Ming found himself in a rather good mood; after all, someone had amused him.

Time flew by.

In the blink of an eye, it was nine twenty-five.

With a creak, the door to the governor’s office opened, and Zhang Gao walked out.

Cheng Yuan’s spirits lifted. Was the governor about to receive him?

Fortunately, he had arrived early and the governor was five minutes ahead of schedule.

Unfortunately for Cheng Yuan, Zhang Gao didn’t look towards the end of the line but instead invited Secretary Liang, who was at the very front, with a beaming smile.

"Secretary Liang, the governor is now available."

"Thank you, Director Zhang."

Secretary Liang, the Party Secretary of Bincheng, was in the Handong region a local lord.

Yet he was very courteous to Zhang Gao, shaking hands voluntarily before pushing the door open and entering the governor’s office.

Zhang Ming laughed.

"Xiao Cheng, Secretary Liang has gone in, what do you say?"

Cheng Yuan looked at his watch and replied in a measured tone, "Leader, it’s not yet nine-thirty."

Zhang Ming shook his head in disbelief, too exasperated to engage further in conversation with Cheng Yuan.

Liu Guangming, standing nearby, kindly advised, "Xiao Cheng, Secretary Liang is the Bincheng Party Secretary, a real power-holder at the departmental level. Even the governor has to treat him with all due seriousness, and the reception time is at least ten minutes as a baseline."

"It’s already nine twenty-five, the governor absolutely won’t have time to meet with you at nine-thirty!"

"Moreover, after Secretary Liang, there’s Mayor Zhou! Mayor Zhou is also a real power-holder at the departmental level, and his meeting time will also start at a minimum of ten minutes."

"I think you’d better just go buy the pan-fried buns for Director Zhang. Don’t waste your time here."

Cheng Yuan replied respectfully, "I’ve waited for an hour, it won’t hurt to wait a bit longer. What if Secretary Liang comes out before nine-thirty?"

Liu Guangming and Zhang Ming didn’t know what to say. This Xiao Cheng, truly brimming with inexplicable confidence!

The two gave up trying to deal with Cheng Yuan and started chatting among themselves.

Soon enough, nine-thirty came.

Zhang Ming looked at the firmly closed office door, turned his head and asked, "Xiao Cheng, it’s nine-thirty. Anything else you’d like to say?"

Cheng Yuan checked his watch; indeed, it was nine-thirty.

But Secretary Liang hadn’t come out.

What was he to do?

According to the agreement just now, he was supposed to go buy pan-fried buns for Zhang Ming immediately.

But what if the governor suddenly summoned him?

As Cheng Yuan hesitated, the creak of the door was heard once more and the governor’s office door opened.

Secretary Liang walked out of the office, exhaling deeply, clearly relieved.

Cheng Yuan was overjoyed, "Director Zhang, Secretary Liang has come out!"

Zhang Ming was stunned. How could Secretary Liang come out so quickly?

That was only five minutes!

He was the highest-ranking official with real power at the department level!

It didn’t make sense!

"Secretary Liang’s out, and you’re happy why? The governor’s next appointment is definitely with Mayor Zhou, which has nothing to do with you."

No sooner had the words left his mouth than Zhang Gao’s gaze swept over and caught sight of Cheng Yuan standing at the very back.

Zhang Gao’s face blossomed with a radiant smile and he waved to Cheng Yuan from afar.

"Xiao Cheng, what are you waiting for? Come over here quickly!"

"Ah! Yes!"

Cheng Yuan hastily nodded, then looked at Zhang Ming with apologetic eyes.

"Director Zhang, I’m very sorry, the governor has summoned me, so I can’t buy the pan-fried buns for you now. After the meeting, I’ll go buy them for you right away."

Zhang Ming felt a tingling in his scalp, the entire situation overwhelming him!

Everything happening before him was shattering his beliefs!

How could he dare to have Cheng Yuan buy breakfast for him? He shook his head like a rattle-drum.

"Xiao Cheng, no! Director Cheng, the governor summoning you must be for something important. How could I trouble you to buy pan-fried buns? Hurry over there, don’t keep the governor waiting..."
