Chapter 414: Declaring Governor of Guangdong
"I was throwing it to the trashcan and missed," Yuqi replied as she spun her pen in a circle.
"What are you stuck about? Maybe I can help you." Xiaoyun offered, able to tell she was a little frustrated.
"You know we are going to hit a million people in Guangzhou, right?" Yuqi asked.
Xiaoyun nodded as he remembered the data sheet that showed Guangzhou\'s population still rapidly increasing.
"I was thinking, what if we send some of those people to Foshan? I mean, Foshan only has less than 10,000 people right now."
"Go for it... But that\'s not what\'s troubling you, right?"
Yuqi fell silent for a second before speaking up.
"I can\'t just send more people over there. It\'s going to require another full government branch just for that city.
And I don\'t have anyone to send over. And people don\'t want to live in a warzone that just ended."
"You tried using incentives?" Xiaoyun suggested.
"That\'s the issue. We are really stretched out thin at this point. There\'s literally not enough resources to be sent over for those people."
Xiaoyun thought for a second, then easily came up with a solution that Yuqi clearly overlooked.
"Why do we need to send resources to have people be sent over to Foshan?
The city is already full of resources. It\'s barely tapped compared to Guangzhou."
"I guess you\'re right... But I still don\'t have to pick who to be the head mayor and manage everything over there."
"I actually have an idea. Why not just use the people there——"
Yuqi instantly shook her head and interrupted, strongly disagreeing with Xiaoyun\'s idea.
"Every mayor and bureaucrats had been from Luoping. It\'s too risky to use someone who doesn\'t have any loyalty."
"That\'s too narrowminded. We still all live in the same country. There\'s no need to make a separation." Xiaoyun argued back.
This time, Yuqi didn\'t argue back.
She knew it was a fruitless argument, as she didn\'t have any direct proof besides her intuition.
"Fine. But how about you setting up the whole mayor and migrating people over to Foshan?"
"Sure, I can start that Friday."
Seeing Xiaoyun easily accept it, Yuqi was a little surprised, especially since she knew he was still dealing with recruitment.
"You\'re so nice recently... Do you want anything from me?"
As Yuqi suddenly sat up from her seat and sat on the table, Xiaoyun moved back a little.
"Ahem, it\'s just part of my job as the leader. I should have been working on it in the first place."
Xiaoyun\'s answer raised a little bit of suspicion inside Yuqi, but still, she only moved closer and closer as her peels fell onto the floor.
"You sure? I\'m down for \'anything\' you want."
"Really? Like anything?" Xiaoyun asked.
"Yes. Anything you want... As long as other people can\'t see it."
Yuqi quickly added the last part as she moved her foot onto Xiaoyun\'s lap, teasing him a little as he took in a cold breath.
"But the request I want needs everyone to see it."
Yuqi froze for a second before snapping back to reality as she moved her foot onto his crotch.
"You really want your wife to be seen in public?" Yuqi questioned, her eyes looking as if she was about to tear up.
"But then there\'s no point in my request," Xiaoyun replied as he grabbed onto the short stocking covering that covered her foot.
"You really are a sick pervert... Fine, if that\'s what you wanted me to do."
Just as Yuqi was about to undress, Xiaoyun suddenly grabbed onto her thighs before putting her onto his lap.
"Are you sure you don\'t want to hear my exact request?" Xiaoyun asked, smirking a little.
"No need. Just do whatever you want to me..." Yuqi whispered as she leaned over to his left ear.
With love filling the air and Yuqi starting to feel a little wet down below, Xiaoyun decided to pull in the bait.
"Great, then help me with this paper."
Xiaoyun quickly turned Yuqi around with a blank sheet of paper before the two of them.
"What?"
Yuqi looked a little dumbfounded as she didn\'t expect him to be so serious all of a sudden.
"You said any request, right? I actually promised Leifeng that I\'d do an internal letter to everyone."
"Fine... What letter is it going to be about?"
Yuqi grumpily asked, looking irritated as she expected some action that wasn\'t about writing.
"It\'s going to be about Mayor Xiaoyun now becoming the temporary governor of Guangdong.
And how Mrs.Yuqi has now been promoted to co-governor of Guangdong. You can do that, right?"
Seeing Yuqi seem even more stunned than she had been earlier, Xiaoyun decided to squeeze her thighs a little.
"Ouch, what was that for?"
"You just staring into the air. Anyway, are you going to write the letter or not?"
"Of course I am."
Yuqi\'s mood suddenly changed.
Her once grumpy mood had completely been replaced with happiness. A big smile that made Xiaoyun a little confused now.
"Are you really that happy that I promoted you to co-governor?"
"Shut up, don\'t ruin my happy mood. This is one of the rarest times I ever heard you request something so smart."
As Yuqi began brainstorming what the letter should be like, Xiaoyun\'s body was starting to act up.
Especially with her cleavage faintly visible from his above angle and her soft body resting on top of him.
It was simply way too much for him to handle, and Yuqi\'s face blushed a little after realizing something was bumping into her thighs.
"Let me finish this letter first." Yuqi pre-emptively spoke out.
"Sure."
Xiaoyun watched in silence, not moving a single inch as he patiently waited for Yuqi to finish.
But Yuqi kept moving her legs, trying to position herself so his crotch wasn\'t rubbing directly against his.
"You want me to get up?" Xiaoyun suggested.
"N-No, it\'s fine."
Seeing her face blushing more and more red and unable to focus, Xiaoyun ultimately lifted her before letting her have a seat all to herself.
Yuqi could finally focus on the work as she quickly finished writing the first draft within five minutes.
"Here, you read it yourself and think if it is good."
As Xiaoyun read it carefully, he was amazed by how good the letter was.
The opening statement jumped straight into the legitimacy question by addressing it as the governor of the people.
It states that his power comes from the people, and it was their wish for Xiaoyun to become governor rather than him declaring it.
The ending note was more aggressive, stating that the country should be unified back under one, with no compromises or separations.
At the same time, it left a little vagueness on how it would be unified, giving Xiaoyun flexibility to please both the military and the civilians.
"You\'re a genius, Yuqi. I don\'t even need to edit any of this. You can just print it and send it out."
As Xiaoyun signed the paper and handed it back to Yuqi, she also signed her name on it before applying Luoping\'s stamp to make it official.
"Can you hand it to the person sitting in the seat outside? She will print it and distribute it to each department."
"Okay."
Xiaoyun didn\'t think much of it as he accepted the paper and headed out of the office.
Meanwhile, Yuqi\'s face was blushing red as she unzipped her pants to check her panties.
A wet spot formed on her dress pants, going beyond her wet panties as she was already turned on from all the friction.
"Dumb idiot..." Yuqi murmured as she quickly grabbed a tissue to wipe the wet spots away.
Just as she was about to finish wiping and put her panties back on, the door suddenly opened.
"Hey Yuqi——"
"Ah!"
Yuqi instantly panicked as she turned the office chair around, letting the back of the chair cover herself.
"Don\'t worry. It\'s me."
A familiar voice appeared, making Yuqi slowly turn back around with her clothes back on.
"Why are you here?" Yuqi curiously asked as Nami was standing right by the door.
"Um, I... I want to do work. I\'m getting a little bored staying at home all day."
"What job do you want? Do you want to work as a secretary for me again?" Yuqi asked as she got up and returned to her original seat.
"No thanks. I want to work in something related to the economy. I read over all kinds of books for this."
Seeing Nami\'s determination, Yuqi started to consider a position for her that matched her requirements seriously.
After thinking for a bit, she couldn\'t really come up with one, as almost all the positions were already filled.
More importantly, it would be an extremely bad look for her government to put Nami somewhere high up, not to mention the risk involved.
"I don\'t mind any position," Nami added as she could tell the conflict inside Yuqi\'s mind.
