390 Not Within Flourish & Prosper’s Considerations (1/2)

”Mrs. Yan, this way please.” The young man led the way and knocked on the District Head's office door. He bowed slightly once more and gestured her towards the door.

Xuxu smiled at him and thought to herself, ”At least their intentions weren't so obvious.”

”Alright, my guest is here and I have to hang up.”

A middle-aged man, who was obviously balding, was sitting on a desk that was located by the windows. He still had his grip on his phone when Xuxu entered the room. He greeted her and promptly ended the call.

He rose and smiled graciously at Xuxu.

”Mrs. Yan, you're here. Please take a seat.” He turned to glance at the young man standing by the door. ”Xiao Zhang, brew some tea.”

Xuxu waved her hands to reject him. ”District Head Jia, there is no need to make such a fuss.”

After briefly exchanging pleasantries, they walked to a vintage-looking black couch and sat down.

Xuxu had taken some time off from work and she had left abruptly earlier on. Hence, she didn't beat around the bush as time was rather tight for her. ”District Head Jia, previously I thought that the investors would only come in next year?”

He seemed rather awkward and explained. ”That's true but I've received orders from my superiors that this relocation matter had to be settled first.”

Xuxu could tell that he was indeed in a difficult position.

Orders from his superiors…

That should be the city government.

Who could it be? Who was the person trying to put pressure on her, more so, creating hurdles by taking advantage of her current strained relationship with Yan Rusheng.

But she didn't have time to guess the identity of the culprit at the moment. The most important thing was to settle Tiny Stars Orphanage's relocation.
