Chapter 90

Wang Hu was not a fool; he naturally knew what Lin Xiaoqing was referring to. Although Wu Potian had known beforehand what he was going to do, he had indeed taken advantage of Lin Xiaoqing's background. At this moment, he hurriedly apologized to Lin Xiaoqing, saying, "Lin Xiaoqing! I'm sorry! I promise it won't happen again. After we finish the first cup of wine, I will punish myself with three more cups."

No one present was a fool; they all knew what Lin Xiaoqing and Wang Hu were talking about. At this moment, Wu Potian immediately instructed Wang Hu, "Three cups are unnecessary, but one cup is a must."

"Since our Potian has said one cup, then it will be one cup! But this is the only time, and it won't happen again." Lin Xiaoqing could refuse to give face to everyone else, but she had to give face to Wu Potian. At this moment, her expression clearly softened, and she agreed with Wu Potian's handling of the situation.

Wu Potian, seeing that Lin Xiaoqing was no longer holding a grudge against Wang Hu, raised his wine glass with a smile to ease the tension, saying, "Director Wang! Director Chen! Since that's the case, let's all drink this cup together!"

Wine is undoubtedly the best regulator at the dinner table. After everyone finished the first cup of wine, the atmosphere in the private room noticeably relaxed. Wang Xudong, seeing Wang Hu drink his punishment cup, picked up his own glass and said with a smile to Wu Potian and Lin Xiaoqing, "Little Wu! Secretary Lin! I'm toasting you two, wishing you a happy and fulfilling life!"

Although Lin Xiaoqing was a princess, she was not overly ambitious for power. When Wang Xudong called her Secretary Lin, her eyebrows slightly furrowed. However, Wang Xudong's subsequent words quickly brought a smile to her face, and she changed her mind from just taking a small sip to finishing her glass. She politely said to Wang Xudong, "Director Wang! Thank you for your kind words!"

Wang Xudong, in order to get on the provincial party secretary's boat, immediately used all his resources to investigate Lin Xiaoqing after reporting to Li Xidong. He had some understanding of Lin Xiaoqing's character. When he saw Lin Xiaoqing's joyful expression, he was also extremely pleased. He chuckled and finished his glass in one go.

"Secretary Lin! There's something you might not know yet! Wang Hu will be working in your Chengguan Town in a while. This guy is good in every way, but he's a bit clumsy. In the future, he will be under your command. As his old classmate, you should help me discipline him well." Chen Shengping also wanted to get closer to Lin Xiaoqing. Seeing Wang Xudong and Lin Xiaoqing finish their glasses, he quickly added, "Secretary Lin! You can rest assured! Wang Hu is my classmate and my boyfriend's brother. If I work in Chengguan Town, I will definitely support his work."

Seeing Lin Xiaoqing's meaningful gaze, Wang Hu inwardly thought, "Oh no! I've been remembered by this lady. My days ahead are going to be tough. I have to find a chance to talk to Potian and get him to keep an eye on his girlfriend."

With this in mind, to curry favor with Lin Xiaoqing, Wang Hu quickly picked up his glass and said with a smile to Wu Potian and Lin Xiaoqing, "Potian! Xiaoqing! As your old classmate, I wish you two a happy ending!"

After finishing his glass, Wu Potian also began to actively toast. Perhaps because of Wang Xudong and Chen Shengping's deliberate actions, the atmosphere in the private room quickly became lively.

Although Wang Hu was present, Wu Potian was not very skilled at such socializing. After more than an hour, Wu Potian, seeing that his goal had been achieved, proposed ending the dinner. He held Lin Xiaoqing's hand and walked out of the private room with Wang Xudong and the others.

"Doctor Wu! When I saw your back just now, I felt it was very familiar. I didn't expect it to really be you." Just as everyone was walking to the hotel entrance, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind.

Hearing the familiar voice, Wu Potian subconsciously stopped and turned around. He saw it was Zheng Huatang and greeted him politely, "President Zheng! It's you! Are you having dinner here tonight?"

Because Pin Yi Xuan was the best restaurant in Hancheng, Zheng Huatang would always choose to eat here when he had guests. Tonight, because his guest didn't drink, dinner ended quickly. He never expected to see Wu Potian and Wang Xudong together when he was about to leave Pin Yi Xuan. This made him very surprised, as Wang Xudong was the police chief of Jiaoning City, while Wu Potian was just an unknown doctor.

Driven by curiosity, Zheng Huatang began to pay attention to Wu Potian and the others. To his surprise, he found that Wang Xudong's attitude towards Wu Potian was completely beyond his expectations, even making him feel that Wang Xudong was currying favor with Wu Potian. This scene was completely beyond his imagination. Realizing that something unusual was happening, he decided to greet Wu Potian.

Hearing Wu Potian's question, Zheng Huatang's face lit up with a bright smile. He said to Wu Potian, "Doctor Wu! I felt it was you just now, and I didn't expect it to really be you."

"Hey! Isn't that Director Wang and Director Chen? How do you know Doctor Wu?" Zheng Huatang then turned his gaze to Wang Xudong and Chen Shengping, his face showing surprise.

Zheng Huatang was the richest man in Hancheng, so Wang Xudong and Chen Shengping were naturally familiar with him. However, they never expected that Wu Potian would also know Zheng Huatang. But thinking of Lin Xiaoqing's identity, they didn't think much of it. Wang Xudong shook hands with Zheng Huatang and said with a smile, "President Zheng! I didn't expect to meet you here. The world is really small. I didn't expect you to know our little Wu."

"Of course I know Doctor Wu. Director Wang! You might not know, but Doctor Wu is our family's savior. My son accidentally swallowed a piece of gum, which blocked his airway and caused severe oxygen deprivation. The situation was very critical. Doctor Wu, without considering the impact of a failed rescue, bravely saved my son. Otherwise, my son would probably not be alive today. What's even more admirable is that Doctor Wu refused the 500,000 yuan consultation fee I offered. I was planning to visit Doctor Wu to thank him, but I didn't expect to meet him here so soon." At this moment, Zheng Huatang was very curious about the relationship between Wang Xudong and Wu Potian, so he immediately told them about how Wu Potian had saved his son.
