Chapter 196 Malice Surges
Lu Ming looked at Bai Ningyu seriously and said, "Director Bai, the headquarters has already sent people to Qiu City, but we still need people from surrounding cities to help. The headquarters still hopes that you can go to Qiu City."
Just when she was thinking about a breakthrough, the opportunity came. Bai Ningyu naturally agreed. Moreover, when she first went to Qiu City, Liao Ran left a good impression on her: "Okay, shall we leave now?"
Lu Ming nodded: "The sooner the better."
Upon hearing this, Bai Ningyu immediately got in the car and rushed to Qiu City with Lu Ming.
After arriving at the special department of Qiu City, Bai Ningyu and Lu Ming ran into Liang Yong head-on.
I still remember when I first arrived in Qiu City, Liang Yong looked at me with an arrogant look, as if he was so superior.
When Liang Yong saw Bai Ningyu beside Lu Ming, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes. Obviously, he did not expect to meet Bai Ningyu here again.
Next to Liang Yong stood a woman dressed in black, who looked to be about 40 years old, with short hair and a very capable look.
The woman stopped when she saw Lu Ming and greeted him with a fake smile, "Minister Lu, why are you so slow? I'm from Rongwu City, but you're the one closest to Qiu City, and you're only here now."
Everything the woman said gave people a feeling of disgust, as if she was saying that Lu Ming was deliberately delaying and was unwilling to come.
Lu Ming chuckled upon hearing this, and didn't engage in a direct argument with her. "We're a small family in Ling City, so naturally we can't compare to Vice Minister Liang and your people in Rongwu City, who even have their own dedicated helicopter."
Deputy Minister Liang snorted softly, his eyes falling on Bai Ningyu beside Lu Ming, and deliberately asked, "Minister Lu, who is this?"
"Let me introduce you. This is Ms. Bai Ningyu, Director of Special Operations Division 7 at headquarters." He then turned to Deputy Director Liang and introduced Bai Ningyu, "This is Liang Ying, Deputy Director of the Rongwu City Special Operations Department."
Bai Ningyu and Liang Ying looked at each other for a moment. She felt that Liang Ying seemed to have some inexplicable hostility towards her.
Because Liang Ying originally thought that the girl who was personally appointed by the director of Shangye Headquarters would have something special.
But when I saw her today, apart from her attractive face, there was nothing special about her.
Moreover, she actually discovered that there was only a slight fluctuation of spiritual power around Bai Ningyu, which could be said to be better than nothing.
Could it be that something went wrong with her cultivation, causing her cultivation to plummet to this point? Lu Ming probably knew about this and was still hiding it for her.
The more Liang Ying thought about it, the more she felt that her guess was correct. She secretly planned in her heart how to make this matter known to the public. Once the news reaches the headquarters, she would see how a useless person like her could hold on to the position of director of the Seventh Department!
Bai Ningyu was confused by this hostility.
However, it seems that the Rongwu City branch does not have a good relationship with the Lingcheng City branch. Otherwise, how could she, a deputy minister, dare to speak so sarcastically to the minister Lu Ming.
Just as Bai Ningyu was thinking, Liang Ying raised her chin and said with a slightly provocative smile, "I've heard of Miss Bai's name for a long time. Seeing you today, it's true that hearing is not as good as meeting, and meeting is not as good as hearing."
As soon as these words were spoken, the smile on Lu Ming's face disappeared instantly. Rongwu City relied on its own good resources and had poached many people.
Moreover, the number of incidents handled in recent years has remained high, which has always been higher than that of Lingcheng City. Therefore, if there are any good things, Rongwu City will be given priority.
Having been suppressed for so many years, he was used to it, but Bai Ningyu was different. She was the newly appointed director of the seventh department of the headquarters, and she was from their Lingcheng City.
Isn't Liang Ying's words a blatant slap in the face? It's okay for me to suffer some grievances, but Bai Ningyu is the hope of Lingcheng's future.
Since Bai Ningyu appeared, the number of supernatural incidents handled in Lingcheng City has been increasing, and there is a subtle momentum to catch up.
Moreover, Liang Ying was just the deputy director of a branch, so when she saw Bai Ningyu, she should have called her Director Bai. Today, her words were too reckless.
Lu Ming's voice sank, and the pressure of a sixth-rank cultivator suddenly emerged. "Deputy Minister Liang, this Miss Bai in front of you was personally invited by Director Ye and promoted to the position of Director of the Seventh Office of the headquarters. With your attitude, could it be that you have some objection to Director Ye's decision?"
Liang Ying's face also turned a little ugly. She didn't expect that Lu Ming, who had always been submissive, would offend her in public.
Moreover, this little girl was actually invited by Director Ye himself!
How can this be?
As far as she knew, the only person Director Ye could personally invite was Director Wu from Office 6. How could this little girl in front of her deserve such a favor that Director Ye could personally invite her?!
Liang Ying is an early fifth-grade fire-type mutant. Although her rank is not much lower than Lu Ming's, the pressure from the sixth-grade cultivator makes her feel very depressed.
Not to mention Liang Yong who was affected.
But Liang Ying was concerned about his reputation and refused to give in.
Unable to bear the pressure, Liang Yong acted as a peacemaker and interrupted, saying, "Minister Lu, Deputy Minister Liang didn't mean that. Director Ye's decision naturally has its reasons, and we certainly have no objection."
After hearing this, Lu Ming withdrew his pressure.
Liang Ying snorted coldly and left angrily, having already cursed Bai Ningyu and Lu Ming thousands of times in his heart.
Bai Ningyu, Lu Ming, just wait for me. I will repay you tenfold or a hundredfold for the humiliation you suffered today!
She wanted to see how Bai Ningyu could continue to serve as the director of the seventh department if everyone knew that Bai Ningyu had such a low level of cultivation now.
Lu Ming knew the truth but did not report it and concealed the truth maliciously. I am afraid that he will not be able to hold the position of director for much longer. Thinking of this, Liang Ying showed a determined smile on her face.
