Chapter 614 Give me a chance
In fact, we are all family, so why bother?
Yuan Ye smiled bitterly in his heart. Of course, he couldn't tell her his true identity, and he was embarrassed to take advantage of her. It was a bit unkind, and he didn't want to get into unnecessary trouble. He also heard that Guangzi was waiting for him at home.
At this time Yang Meiyu said:
"You're back so late, you must be hungry, come to my house for some midnight snack.
I've wanted to treat you to a meal for a long time. You're so busy, it's always hard to see you. Today I happened to see you."
"Thank you for your kindness. I'm not hungry at all. I'm a little tired today and want to go back and rest early. Maybe next time."
Yuan Ye politely declined. Although this woman was very beautiful, it would be better not to get involved in this mess.
Yang Meiyu stood at the entrance of the corridor, but showed no intention of moving aside.
"Mr. Yuan, oh, I should call you Director Yuan. I heard that you became the director of the municipal government.
Now that you are a high-ranking official, do you look down on me, a commoner?"
Yang Meiyu had a somewhat resentful look on her face.
Yuan Ye quickly explained:
"Ms. Yang, you misunderstood me. How could I be that kind of person? I'm really not hungry. Let's wait until next time when I'm free."
Yang Meiyu sighed and said:
"Okay, next time then, you must promise me next time.
Actually...actually, I have something I would like to ask you for help with."
She seemed to have said it with great determination.
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
Yuan Ye was very curious about what she wanted him to do for her. He thought that if it was a small matter, he would help if he could.
If it is something excessive or will affect his potential, then we must not help him.
"Director Yuan, it's late at night and it's not convenient to talk here. It will disturb others' rest. Let's go to my room and talk."
Yang Meiyu's eyes were full of anticipation.
"Ok."
Yuan Ye followed Yang Meiyu into the house and couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. He didn't want to come in, but who knew he would come in anyway.
This woman was quite resourceful. She achieved her goal with just a few words and let himself into her home. And it seemed so natural. This made Yuan Ye admire her a little. He really couldn't underestimate this woman.
"Director Yuan, please sit down for a moment. I'll make you a cup of tea."
"Don't bother, just talk first."
Yuan Ye didn't want to stay here for too long.
"Okay, here's the thing. I have a cousin named Situ Shang who just graduated from Aurora University and can't find a suitable job. Director Yuan, could you help him find a job in the municipal government? I heard that working in the municipal government pays well and brings prestige. Could you do me a favor? I'd definitely thank you."
After Yang Meiyu finished speaking, she looked at Yuan Ye eagerly.
Yuan Ye remained silent. It turned out that Yang Meiyu had other motives. Needless to say, her so-called cousin was probably also a member of the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics. She wanted to infiltrate the city government through him and become a secret agent of the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics in the city government.
Do you want to help me with this?
Yuan Ye thought about it and decided to help her. After all, she was one of them. Although they were not in the same organization, they were both fighting for the anti-Japanese cause.
This was a piece of cake for him. He could get it done in minutes by just making a phone call.
He also considered that this matter would not have any impact on his undercover work. Isn't it just helping to recommend someone? This is also a common thing in official circles.
To take a step back, even if something happens to her cousin in the future and she is held accountable, she has no direct relationship with him and the most she can be held responsible is one of negligence.
Even if he has this responsibility, no one will pursue it given his connections and background.
But he couldn't agree immediately, because Yang Meiyu had already suspected that he might be one of their own. If he agreed too readily, it would only deepen her thinking. Yang Meiyu asked him for help, not just to find a job, but also to test him.
Under the current circumstances, Yuan Ye does not want to see this happen.
In order to verify his idea, he quietly turned on the ability to eavesdrop on people's thoughts. As he thought, Situ Shang was a member of the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, and it was the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics that asked Yang Meiyu to place him in the municipal government. However, Situ Shang was indeed Yang Meiyu's cousin, and Yang Meiyu did intend to test him through this incident.
Seeing that Yuan Ye was silent and looked troubled, Yang Meiyu asked:
"Director Yuan, is this a bit difficult?"
However, she immediately realized that this must be Yuan Shikai's pretense. Zheng Qian said that Yuan Shikai held a high position of power in the municipal government and was deeply trusted by the mayor. For him, isn't it just a matter of arranging someone to enter the municipal government? What's so difficult about that?
This is a case of not showing off one's skills until one has seen the rabbit. He will only help you if you pay him real money.
But this is also normal, isn't this the case with all officials these days? There's no reason to do favors for free.
Yang Meiyu was also prepared. Without waiting for Yuan Ye to speak, she said, "Wait a moment," and hurried into the bedroom.
After a while, she walked out of the bedroom with three gold bars, came to Yuan Ye, and said respectfully:
"This is just a small gift, please accept it, Director Yuan."
After saying that, he handed the three gold bars to Yuan Ye. Yuan Ye did not refuse and accepted them without hesitation.
After receiving the gold bars, he smiled and asked:
"Do you have a telephone at home?"
"Yes, yes, in my bedroom, come with me."
Yang Meiyu thought to herself, this is the face of an official. Money really makes the world go round. After she took out some real money, she immediately agreed to do the job.
This was exactly what she wanted, and brought her one step closer to her goal.
She took Yuan Ye into the bedroom with a happy look on her face. The bedroom was decorated in a warm and feminine style, and the air was filled with a faint fragrance.
Yuan Ye sat down at the head of the bed and picked up the phone on the bedside table. The call was to Chai Ruhai, the director of the personnel department. After the phone rang a few times, Chai Ruhai's voice came.
"Who is it?"
"It's me, Shi Kai. Are you still awake?"
Yuan Ye greeted.
"Oh, it's Brother Shi Kai, what can I do for you?"
When Chai Ruhai heard that it was Yuan Shikai calling, he knew that something must have happened, otherwise he would not call so late. The lazy voice immediately became respectful.
Ever since Chai Ruhai became the director of the personnel department, he no longer dares to call himself an old classmate in front of Yuan Shikai. He knows that without Yuan Shikai, he would not have everything he has now. He not only saved his life, but also helped him get promoted.
He regarded Yuan Shikai not only as his benefactor but also as his superior, and followed his lead. He knew that following him was absolutely right, and everything that had happened before had proved this.
Yuan Ye smiled and said:
"Look, I have a landlord who's very kind to me. She has a cousin named Situ Shang, who just graduated from college and hasn't found a suitable job yet.
She asked me for help, but I don't have the ability to do it, so she can only ask you, Director Chai of the Personnel Department.
See if there's a vacant position. If it's convenient, please help me. If there's no position, forget it. I don't want to embarrass Director Chai."
Yuan Ye had long noticed the change in Chai Ruhai's attitude towards him, which was human nature, but he did not take it for granted. The tone of his voice was still the same as before, very humble. Although the status between them was no longer the same as before, this was what touched Chai Ruhai.
Yuan Shikai seemed to be speaking in a tactful way, but how could Chai Ruhai not understand his meaning? Without thinking, he said:
"Brother Shi Kai, look at what you said. You said that even if there is no position, I will find a way to arrange it. If it doesn't work, put it in my personnel department. You can ask him to come to me tomorrow."
Chai Ruhei's words were powerful and Yang Meiyu, who was sitting next to Yuan Ye, could hear them clearly and could also feel that Director Chai had a different relationship with Yuan Shikai.
"Okay, thank you, old classmate. I'll treat you to a meal some other day and won't disturb your rest."
Yuan Ye put down the phone with a smile and said to Yang Meiyu:
"You heard it too. Tomorrow, have your cousin go to the Personnel Department to see Director Chai."
"Thank you, Director Yuan. You're amazing! You got it done with just one phone call.
You said you would invite Director Chai to dinner another day, or I should do it. My cousin happens to report to the Personnel Department tomorrow, so how about arranging it for tomorrow evening?
No matter what, you and Director Chai must honor me with this opportunity!"
Yang Meiyu knew that as long as Yuan Shikai agreed, Director Chai would definitely come. It would be a good opportunity for her cousin to get to know Director Chai and establish a good relationship with him, which would be very beneficial to her cousin's undercover work.
Yuan Shikai originally didn't want to attend the banquet, but after seeing through Yang Meiyu's thoughts and knowing her purpose, he changed his mind and decided to help her.
Yuan Ye felt that there was no harm in her knowing Chai Ruhai, and there was another advantage. After Yang Meiyu turned her attention to Chai Ruhai, she might not bother him too much.
"It's hard to say now. I'll call you tomorrow."
Although Yuan Ye had agreed, he did not make it final.
"Okay, I'll wait for your call tomorrow. Director Yuan, I see you've been working hard all day and feel a little tired. How about I give you a massage so you can rest better when you go back?"
She moved closer to Yuan Shikai, almost right next to him, and the woman's fragrance became stronger.
