The following day, early in the morning.
Minister Zhou sat in his office, lifted his teacup, and picked up the documents.
Knock knock.
Secretary Zhang Meilin pushed the door open and said, "Minister Zhou, Director Qin is looking for you."
"Let him in."
Minister Zhou set down the documents and sighed inwardly.
He did not want to have much contact with Director Qin, yet Director Qin was like a persistent plaster, searching for him every now and then.
"Minister Zhou."
Director Qin pulled out a chair, sat down, and immediately raised his thumb, "Minister Zhou, you are truly clairvoyant; you really guessed it right, that Feng Hongtao, and Secretary Chu do have a special relationship!"
"Oh? What sort of relationship?"
"Feng Hongtao is Secretary Chu's cousin!"
Minister Zhou had suspected as much, so he was not surprised to have it confirmed.
"Right, there's another thing."
