Chapter 335 Turmoil

• “Finnian, what are you doing here?” Mayor Liao greeted them with a hearty smile.
• “It’s like this,” Finnian said, keeping it simple. “I just registered my company yesterday and I’m trying to hire. I don’t really know how job fairs work, so I didn’t apply for a pass ahead of time. I wanted to ask Section Chief Liu to help me get a temporary pass…” He ran through the whole thing, leaving out the part where Section Chief Liu tried to throw his weight around. You let people keep some dignity if you can. Liu might’ve been annoying, but he hadn’t actually done anything like taking bribes or abusing his position. No need to go nuclear.
• After hearing it, Section Chief Liu felt cold sweat trickle down his back. He’d thought he was done for. He never imagined Finnian would let him off the hook and not complain to Mayor Liao. That totally blindsided him. When he came to, he couldn’t help shooting Finnian a grateful look.
