Xu Ren asked Huo Ran if he wanted to replace him, thinking that he had guessed the boss's mind, but Huo Ran just smiled faintly.

"What if I say I want you to take your place?"

Xu Ren suddenly felt his mouth dry and his heart was hot, but after a while, he suppressed his excitement and said in a trembling voice: "Boss, I won't tell you, I really want to, but I'm afraid it will delay your great cause." ”

This is not the East City, but the West City that they have not yet figured out.

With strong force, you can grab the territory, but you still have a layer to go directly to the mayor's position.

Yes, it was the mayor of Xicheng who Huo Ran asked Xu Ren to arrest back.

Unlike Dongcheng, the mayor is a big man of all sizes; The mayor of Westside doesn't even qualify to be a mascot, but it just exists, and it's often forgotten.

That's why he was easily brought back by Xu Ren.

Huo Ran looked at Xu Ren approvingly, she was still sober in the face of temptation, and her arrangements were not in vain.

Huo Ran, who had already made arrangements, slowly said his arrangement.

Xu Ren went from initial hesitation to acceptance, and finally said firmly to Huo Ran: "Xu Ren must live up to the boss's cultivation!" ”

Looking up at the starry sky, it was just as beautiful and mysterious, and no one knew that it was slowly sliding into the abyss of destruction.

"Isn't it ridiculous that I'm doing all this just to restore clarity to the world?" For the first time, Huo Ran told people what he really thought.

Xu Ren also looked up at the starry sky: "Boss, you're right!" Success or failure, I'm here for you! ”

This time, Xu Ren was completely convinced, not because of Huo Ran's powerful force and mysterious methods, but just because of her mind.

"I also made Dongcheng my home, hoping that it would be beautiful and peaceful, but unfortunately I was evicted." Xu Ren whispered about the past that he had never told anyone.

As the illegitimate son of the mayor, he can't say who his father is, he can only bear the reputation of "unknown father" and grow up under people's sneering eyes.

He had always had a dream of becoming mayor like his father, but unfortunately his father didn't want to do it at all.

Huo Ran patted Xu Ren's shoulder encouragingly: "In the future, Xicheng will be your home!" ”

The two of them had a heart-to-heart exchange, and they were quite sympathetic to each other, and finally Huo Ran said in high spirits: "Let's go, go and see the guests you brought back!" ”

The mayor of Xicheng is in his fifties, and from the perspective of a politician, he is in his prime, and there are only a few cities in this world, and there are even no countries, so it stands to reason that such a person is naturally the focus of everyone.

But this mayor is not inconspicuous at all, and at most he can praise "good temper." ”

Before Huo Ran and the others came in, he was reading a book he was carrying, he was very fascinated, and when he heard a knock on the door, he reluctantly put down the book in his hand and looked at the door, and was stunned for a moment It turned out to be a woman.

Along the way, he guessed and guessed, but he still didn't know which family boss remembered him again.

In his speculation, he is either a shrewd and stingy old man in his seventies or eighties, or a strong and domineering young man in his thirties.

This woman looked less than twenty-five years old, with short hair, a very easy-going smile, and a confident gesture.

The well-mannered young man who had brought himself was half a step behind the woman, which clearly showed her status.

"Mayor, please be seated." Huo Ran smiled mildly and sat opposite the mayor.

Huo Ran looked at it amiably, but the mayor didn't dare to be careless, you must know that poisonous snakes are always quiet.

"Hello, hello." The mayor's buttocks were lightly sideways, and he looked timid with low eyebrows.

Huo Ran raised his eyebrows and looked at Xu Ren, Xu Ren nodded affirmatively, he definitely didn't catch the wrong person.

Glancing at the book in the mayor's hand, Huo Ran said casually: "I didn't expect the mayor to have such a hobby, I knew that I should prepare a gift in advance." ”

The mayor was shocked, it seems that what he wants is not small!

"Just look at it, look at it." The mayor spoke, but his hand gently touched the cover of the book.

"Xu Ren, go to my room, there is a cloth bag in the black box for me to get it." Huo Ran waved his hand and saw Xu Ren go out, and said to the mayor: "I don't know what style you like?" Landscapes, people, or something else? ”

"Who the hell is this guy?" The mayor frantically flipped through his memory, but there was still no clue for half a day, and finally had to say: "It's all good, it's all good." ”

"Boss, bring it." Xu Ren came back soon, holding the plain bag in his hand.

Huo Ran took it with both hands and opened it gently, and there was a painting inside.

Originally, the mayor was still trying to recall, and when he saw the scroll inadvertently, he immediately said bitterly: "Tyrannical things, really tyrannical things, such a masterpiece, how can it be so preserved, miss, I mean your paintings are very good!" ”

The mayor was halfway through his words, and suddenly remembered that the person opposite was not his painting friend, but the big man who controlled his life and death, and his face was white and he explained incoherently.

Looking at the picture scroll with affection, Huo Ran handed it to the mayor: "You are right, it is a tyrannical thing in my hands, so let's give such a masterpiece to someone who understands it." ”

The mayor was really moved to look at the picture scroll, but he was afraid of Huo Ran's identity and reluctantly refused.

Xu Ren stared at him with a heavy face, and then saw that Huo Ran was still stretching out his hand, looking like he would not give up if he didn't answer, so he had to take it.

"This is a gift from the deceased, the painter is Han Yiyun, I studied in his studio, and then the studio experienced a turmoil, Master Han gave me this painting..."

Huo Ran talked eloquently about the experience of learning to paint, and the mayor gradually relaxed, and even pointed out some painting skills, talking about the last two people who hated to see each other late.

Half an hour later, the mayor began to yawn uncontrollably.

"Speaking of which, my brother..."Huo Ran pointed to Xu Ren, who was always standing behind him.

The mayor was in a fierce spirit, holding his breath and concentrating, knowing that this was a poor dagger!

“... What do you think of him as a secretary? Huo Ran still had that confidant tone.

"Of course, Mr. Xu is so handsome, it's Qu Cai to follow me!" The mayor directly patted his leg and agreed, feeling that he was honored.

Huo Ran paused, and then said her second purpose, in her opinion, this time she must start negotiating.

How do you know that the mayor still nodded directly very happily: "The soldiers and uncles in Xicheng are used to being lazy, and they need characters like you!" ”

“... Okay, then thank you mayor. We'll be here tomorrow, what do you think? Huo Ran finally said tentatively.

"The sooner the better! Otherwise, how about you go back with me today? "The mayor can't wait even more than Huo Ran.

Xu Ren behind him almost doubted that he really didn't catch the wrong person?
