Xu Qigang gave him a look that said “Your ideological awareness is commendable.”

Just as the train pulled into the station, he picked up his belongings and waved to Zhou Hong, following the crowd onto the train.

Immediately after the script was revised, Sheng Ning delivered it to the Inspection Department.

Her last summoned discussion there had not left a good impression, and coupled with her resentment toward Su Hai for being Qin Cuifen’s backbone in her previous life, Sheng Ning harbored a deep aversion toward him.

Thus, when she arrived at the door of the Inspection Department, she hesitated for a minute before entering.

Located right next to the General Union’s administrative building, the Inspection Department’s office building appeared much larger than that of the Song and Dance Troupe. She lingered at the entrance while people coming and going cast curious looks at her.

Groups of people passing by also couldn’t help but sneak a glance.

“Is that Sheng Ning?” a young leader asked curiously.

“Of course! She’s the prettiest comrade in our General Union,” a junior officer from the Inspection Department proudly said.

Some people immediately noticed her beauty.

“Exactly, exactly!” the junior officer got excited, “Professor Su, isn’t that impressive?”

“Hmm, very excellent.” Su Huai’an, the youngest professor at National Security University, acknowledging someone as excellent was definitely a compliment.

As more people began looking her way, Sheng Ning, uncomfortable with the attention, decided to step forward and said to the comrade standing guard at the door, “Hello comrade, I’m looking for Director Su.”

Get the script to him early and get it over with.

“Right this way.”

Sheng Ning followed behind him, passing by a group of people who were whispering among themselves.

As she passed by, the junior officer was so excited that he almost danced with joy.

Only when Sheng Ning’s figure disappeared into the corridor did he exclaim with a flushed face, “She looks even better up close.”

“It’s hard to imagine that she’s actually a sharpshooter. Is this what talent looks like? It really makes one jealous,” Su Huai’an murmured as he watched her walk away.

It was Sheng Ning’s first time in Su Hai’s office, which was very spacious and seemed even nicer than Yang Wenying’s.

“Reporting to Director Su!”

Su Hai, who was looking down at his writing, looked up at the sound of the voice and saw Sheng Ning.

“Alright, you go ahead with your work!”

“Yes!”

After the comrade left, Sheng Ning took a step forward to greet Su Hai.

“You don’t need to be so formal.” Su Hai smiled warmly and casually waved his hand, “You can come in directly if you want to see me in the future.”

Sheng Ning didn’t want to see this man ever again in her life, but she lacked the courage to say it, managing only to muddle through.

Su Hai’s pupils contracted slightly; she seemed to really dislike him? This speculation made his brows furrow enough to kill a fly. Although she disliked him, it was unfortunate that he didn’t dislike her.

This girl felt familiar to him from the moment he saw her, solely because she was from the Su family. He even considered going back and asking his older brothers if they had fathered any illegitimate daughters.

“Did you do well in the competition?” Su Hai asked with a smile.

Why is it always this topic wherever I go? And, Director Su, could you please not use that skin-crawling tone with me?

Having experienced Su Hai’s cruel methods in her previous life, she really struggled to adapt now.

“Yes!”

“Have you practiced before?”

“No,” Sheng Ning truthfully replied, “It was my second time handling it.”

“It seems it’s purely talent!” Su Hai nodded thoughtfully.

“Director Su, the script is revised,” Sheng Ning, not wanting to stay any longer, took the initiative to present the script. Like a frightened bird, she quickly placed the script on the desk and then stepped back three paces.

Su Hai watched her movements, his smile deepening.

The Su family had many brothers and mostly boys. In the third generation, Su Yun was the only girl; up to now, he only had nephews and not a single niece.

“Please have a seat, I’ll have a look.”

“Can I leave first?” Every additional minute was agony.

Su Hai’s hand holding the script paused momentarily before resuming as usual, his clean and long fingers flipping through the pages attentively.

He examined it carefully, although not satisfactorily. Sometimes when he saw parts he liked, he even nodded in approval.

Seeing his satisfaction, Sheng Ning secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Ah! This is a future high-ranking leader, Qin Cuifen’s uncle; she really didn’t dare to offend him!

Thinking about the future made her lips purse in distress.

Now, Qin Cuifen had been surpassed by her, but according to the developments in her previous life, she would soon regain her status. When that time comes, with the vast support of the Su and Meng families, targeting anyone would be a matter of a simple command.

She had to secure more leverage for herself in the future.

“Well written!” Su Hai closed the script, “Have you thought of choosing a pen name for yourself?”

“A pen name?” Sheng Ning confirmed.

“Yes, a pen name. I think your writing is quite good.”

Sheng Ning eyed him warily, wondering about his true intentions. This man was craftier than a fox and deeper than a well. Could he really be so kind-hearted?

Only a fool would believe him.

However, thinking about it, she shouldn’t offend him. No, it wasn’t someone she could afford to offend even now. If it was about adopting a pen name, then so be it! After all, she was planning to take this up as a side job in the future.

Then, Sheng Ning picked up a pen and wrote down the characters “Rebirth” on the script.

“My pen name.”

Su Hai looked amused as he watched, slightly raising his eyebrows, “Rebirth… Rebirth…”

Sheng Ning really wanted to cover her face, “Director Su, please stop reading it, okay?”

“I have some business, I should go now!” Without waiting for Su Hai to respond, she turned and ran out, just as someone was coming in.

“Old Su, what did you do? You scared the poor girl like that?”

Su Hai shrugged helplessly, “Nothing!” He was curious too about why Sheng Ning was so afraid of him.

“In future reviews, you should probably stay out of it; otherwise, everyone who sees you will be as scared as a rabbit. Don’t turn into the second Living Yama.”

Mentioning Living Yama, Su Hai stroked his chin, “No way!”

“By the way, I came to get the script. You’ve had the Song and Dance Troupe prepare all the theatrical performances, but it won’t look good if the script isn’t ready.”

Su Hai handed over the freshly received script.

The other party opened it, and on the title page was written ‘Rebirth’ by two characters.

“Is this the author?”

“Exactly!” Su Hai nodded, “Let them start rehearsing! Yang Wenying wants to outdo the Qianjin Dance Troupe, and this might be an opportunity.”

Actually, many people misunderstood Su Hai. While it was true Su Yun was his sister, he did not mix personal issues with official business. From a professional standpoint, he definitely sided with Yang Wenying.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have secured Blood Rose the moment he discovered it.

“Do you have so much confidence in this play?” the other person asked in surprise.
