Wu Qiangwei returned to her office, with Wu Ming tagging along excitedly.
"Big sis..."
"Get out."
"..." Wu Ming's lips twitched twice, "Sis, it's about Sister Bai."
This time, Wu Qiangwei didn't send him away, instead she took out a cigarette and lit it.
"Sis, you've started smoking again? If mom finds out... I won't say anything, I won't, I promise."
Wu Ming hastily changed the subject, dodging the glare she shot his way, "I went to see Sister Bai yesterday, and something happened."
He carefully recounted the previous night's events to Wu Qiangwei.
After listening, Wu Qiangwei's frown deepened, "Land acquisition for the high-speed train?"
"Yes."
"Strange."
Wu Qiangwei muttered under her breath. The high-speed train project hadn't progressed to Dujiang County yet, so why had the land acquisition started?
"Ru Yi's factory got burned down?"
"Yep, it burned. Huge blaze. Sister Bai's eyes were swollen from crying."
