Gu Xiao became more and more excited as he talked and stood up from the single sofa.
As a native of the imperial capital, he knew everything about what happened that year. His mother died in that disaster.
The poisonous gas that exploded in the Bai family factory was caused by malicious sabotage caused by the competition between the four major families.
The death toll reported in the entire imperial capital was 31,900.
But the real death toll has long exceeded 100,000, and this is still the number of people who died in hospitals.
At that time, the situation was most serious in the western suburbs. Because it was densely populated, had a large flow of people, and was close to the port, it was the location where the infection was most likely to spread. Therefore, everyone there could only be quarantined.
At that time, the entire western suburbs were like a zombie siege, and everyone wanted to survive.
But if an infected person is allowed to come out, it will spread to others.
Moreover, the hospitals at that time were also overcrowded and there were no specific drugs. Even after arriving at the hospital, people would not be able to survive without receiving routine treatment.
Li Beihan raised his eyelids and looked at Gu Xiao disdainfully with his deep phoenix eyes, his eyes arrogant, "Do you really care about the people of China, or are you worried that it will affect your presidential election?"
Gu Xiao was stunned and choked on Li Beihan's words.
"In your eyes, is this the kind of person I am?"
Is he that unbearable?
Indeed, he is a man who can give up his wife and daughter for the sake of the position of leader.
You deserve to be thought of that way.
His eyes dimmed, and his eyes fell on the girl beside Li Beihan. If his Qiqi was still there, she would have grown into a big girl, right?
Ye Nanyi raised his head and met Gu Xiao's gaze.
His eyes were a little red, maybe because he was angry or something happened.
His shoulders were completely slumped.
The sunshine outside shines on the middle-aged man's white hair, giving him an indescribable feeling of loneliness and desolation.
Why do you think he is a little pitiful?
After a moment, Gu Xiao took a deep breath and said, "Indeed, November is the presidential election. During this period, there can be no chaos in the country."
After a pause, he looked at Li Beihan meaningfully, "Beihan, your mother sacrificed her life for the peace of the people of the imperial capital back then. Are you sure you want to break it?"
As soon as these words came out, Li Beihan's originally disdainful expression suddenly froze on his face, his brows furrowed, his eyes narrowed, and his hands clenched unconsciously.
Noticed the change in Li Beihan.
"The Chief."
"Father."
Ye Nanyi and Gu Sirui spoke at the same time, and after their words fell, they looked at each other.
Ye Nanyi spoke first: "President, developing slums is what I have to do. Even if Li Beihan doesn't speak to you on my behalf, I will do it sooner or later."
It was she who wanted to develop the slums and had nothing to do with Li Beihan.
He does not need to bear this 'kidnapping'.
Gu Xiao sat back on the sofa, the expression on his face was no longer amiable, but extremely serious.
Here comes another one.
This is even more powerful. Instead of negotiating with him about the development rights of the slum, we are going to develop it directly.
Are all Li Beihan's people so arrogant?
"I have lived in a slum for as long as I can remember. There is a lingering rancid smell there all year round. I didn't know why at first, but I found out later. What you just said is for the Chinese people. I believe you. original intention.”
Hearing this, Gu Xiao couldn't help but look at the girl twice.
"But the people in the slums are also Chinese people. However, the people there have been abandoned and despised by the entire imperial capital and even the country. They even regard the people in the slums as inferior people living in that city. Gu Chief understands all this. ?”
Ye Nanyi's tone was calm, with a faint smile on her lips, but her eyes were cold.
Thinking of the unfair treatment and the old people and children who froze to death.
Without waiting for Gu Xiao to answer, she continued: "People in the slums are also human beings. They have done nothing wrong, but they have to bear the injustice caused by all their mistakes. Why?"
Gu Xiao fell silent.
Gu Sirui, who was sitting opposite, didn't speak.
Ye Nanyi felt that the man beside her was not as excited as before, and she felt relieved.
"Sir, you have your concerns, I understand. As a Chinese citizen, I don't want any unrest in China, but some old things, can we just turn the page?
Once this page is turned, all the unhappiness and past can be put aside. If this page is not turned over for a long time, then it will be the unhappiness of the entire Chinese country. "
It's been so many years since the incident, even if it's brought up again, it's in the past.
If Gu Xiao wanted to object, his throat was suddenly blocked and he couldn't say a word.
For a tough guy like Li Beihan, you just need to know his weak spots and the places he can't touch to attack him.
But every word this little girl said was for the sake of the Chinese people, and it was impossible to refute.
He looked at the little girl in front of him again, with admiration and a deeper understanding of her.
Not only is he extremely courageous, but he is also good at understanding people's hearts, and his ability to grasp human nature is truly amazing.
If they join forces with Li Beihan in the future, will the entire country of China become their world?
Difficult to do, headache.
Gu Xiao rubbed his eyebrows, then suddenly raised his head and looked at Gu Sirui, "Si Rui, what do you think about this matter?"
Gu Sirui's face was expressionless, not surprised at all by his father's question.
He crossed his legs and put one arm on the back of the sofa in a casual posture.
He first glanced at Li Beihan, and then his eyes fell on Ye Nanyi, with a rare faint smile on his serious face.
"Father, I respect any decision you make, but I personally feel that the Imperial City slums need to be investigated and understood. If it is consistent with what Miss Ye said, then developing slums may not be a bad thing."
Gu Sirui said it very neutrally.
Ye Nanyi was still not used to hearing such a serious way of speaking from his mouth.
"Okay, father, I can go to the Imperial Capital and learn about the real situation in the slums for you. After understanding it, it won't be too late for you to decide whether to develop it."
This method is currently the most neutral solution.
You can't be tough with Li Beihan. Besides, what this little girl said does have some truth and is worth pondering.
Just give him some time to think about it.
"Well, then just do as Si Rui said. Beihan, do you still have any objections?"
"The newly developed shipping line in Huadu belongs to me." Li Beihan's tone did not mean any discussion, like a bandit.
Do you really think that the shot I received was in vain?
Is it possible to cut the flesh without bleeding?
Gu Xiao sighed, knowing this was the case.
"Okay, otherwise this project will have to be run by someone from a large group. Leave it to you, I'll rest assured."
Li Beihan curled his lips and sneered, stood up, took the little girl beside him, and left the Prime Minister's office without looking back.
"Father, I'm going with them." Gu Sirui stood up to leave, but was stopped by Gu Xiao.
"Wait a minute, this time when you go to the imperial capital, you can do me a favor."
