chapter 27 hint

Baldwin Qi's exact origins, Harold Sun didn't know. However, a guest who could make Mayor Huang wait in anticipation was clearly not someone he should provoke. "Master Qi," Harold Sun asked with a smile, "how should we handle this guy to satisfy you?" He didn't want this minor matter to alarm Fredric Huang. Otherwise, if the Mayor held him accountable, he couldn't bear it. Baldwin Qi calmly replied, "I've already provided him with a solution, but he didn't agree, so I called for you, Manager Sun." Upon hearing this, Evan Zhang shivered uncontrollably. Wearing a maid's outfit and running three laps around the bank? It was too embarrassing. If he really did it, he wouldn't have any dignity left in the future. "Do as Master Qi says. Otherwise, you don't have to come to work anymore!" Harold Sun said sternly, his face stern. Though Evan Zhang was a trusted subordinate, offending Baldwin Qi was way worse in comparison. What was Evan Zhang in front of that? Evan Zhang felt extremely wronged. He looked at Baldwin Qi and said bitterly, "Master Qi, can't we find another way? This is too embarrassing... I'm a grown man after all. If I do something like this, I won't be able to face outsiders in future." "I beg you, please be lenient. I am willing to handle this matter with the best attitude." Baldwin Qi, with a mocking smile, responded, "I don't want to repeat myself. The choice is yours!" When Evan Zhang had previously dared to ask April Qiao to come to him dressed in that provocative maid's outfit, he should've anticipated today's outcome. After struggling between his dignity and his job, Evan Zhang finally clenched his teeth, bowed his head, and started wearing the maid's outfit he had taken from a black plastic bag... For a grown man to wear such a short and tight-fitting maid's dress was extremely awkward. The staff, seeing this, felt chills down their spines, glad they had only made some offhand comments earlier and hadn't offended Baldwin Qi. Otherwise, their fate might have been even worse than Evan Zhang's. Wearing the outfit, Evan Zhang left the bank building under the bizarre stares of everyone and began running around the building. Passers-by stopped to watch this scene, taking out their phones to capture photos and laughing heartily. "Master Qi, I sincerely apologize. It's all because I didn't manage my subordinates strictly, which led to this embarrassment," Harold Sun said uneasily. "I'm satisfied with how Manager Sun handled this. Let's just let this go," Baldwin Qi said indifferently. Relief flooded Harold Sun, and he smiled, "I'll personally arrange the loan for Qiao Group right away!" "Thank you, Manager Sun," Baldwin Qi responded gratefully. Without another word, Harold Sun personally addressed Qiao Group's loan issue. With him overseeing the process, all the paperwork had been submitted in advance; only Evan Zhang had intentionally made things difficult for April Qiao. With a wave of his hand, Harold Sun had tens of millions immediately transferred to Qiao Group's account. "Master Qi, everything's settled now. Shall we go for a meal together?" Harold Sun invited with a smile. "Thank you, Manager Sun." Baldwin Qi nodded, not refusing Harold Sun's offer. Meanwhile, April Qiao received the news of the loan and jumped up from her chair in excitement. She grabbed her phone and called Egbert Zhang, exclaiming, "Brother Zhang, your efficiency is unbelievable! Just a few hours ago you said you'd help, and now it's done?" Upon receiving the call, Egbert Zhang was confused, not clear on how Qiao Group's loan had been approved so quickly. He pretended to ponder deeply for a moment, then smiled and said, "April, since I promised you, I will definitely do it!" "What is the relationship between our Zhang Group and Zhonghai Bank? They are begging us to borrow 2 billion from them!" "I called the bank president, Harold Sun, two hours ago. However, I didn't expect his work efficiency to be so fast." "I should thank him later. If necessary, I can borrow more money from him!" April Qiao couldn't help but sigh. The Zhang Group was indeed wealthy. The Qiao Family Group faced difficulties in borrowing from banks everywhere, but for the Zhang Group, the banks proactively approached them. The two are not on the same level at all! "Why, has the loan issue been resolved? You look so happy?" Polly Li noticed April Qiao's excitement and asked. "Yes, I didn't expect Mr. Zhang to take my matter to heart and sort it out with President Sun so quickly!" April Qiao exclaimed. Polly Li's eyes flickered, then she chuckled, "Have you ever thought that maybe it wasn't Egbert Zhang who did it?" April Qiao was taken aback, then asked, "If not Mr. Zhang, then who could it be?" "Perhaps your current husband?" Polly Li hinted with a smile. "How is that possible? He's just a small prison guard from a remote area. How can he have the power to solve these issues? What can he offer compared to Mr. Zhang?" "I was quite moved that he stood up for me before the Black Dragon Chamber of Commerce. To be honest, I was surprised he had the courage. However, he acted recklessly and didn't consider the consequences." "Polly, did he threaten you again? To speak good of him in front of me?" April Qiao frowned, sensing that something was off, and inquired further. Polly Li laughed and shook her head, saying, "No, I just mentioned it casually." Polly Li realized that Baldwin Qi was a hidden boss, but April Qiao and her family seemed completely unaware. "Since April can't see it, I can't possibly steal her love!" Polly Li thought to herself, smiling. She felt guilty for keeping it from April Qiao, so she gave a gentle reminder. However, since April Qiao didn't believe her, Polly Li felt much more relaxed. April Qiao said, "Alright, Polly, don't mention him to me anymore. I don't like him! Seeing him now just annoys me." Polly Li responded, "I understand! I won't bring him up again. Don't be mad." April Qiao opened her phone and noticed that several friends had posted pictures of Evan Zhang dressed as a maid, running around the Zhonghai Bank building. She was taken aback and then burst into laughter. "Evan Zhang used to give me a hard time. I didn't expect Mr. Zhang to help me take this revenge!" April Qiao exclaimed joyfully. Polly Li leaned over to take a look and was secretly surprised again. This Baldwin Qi truly had some tricks up his sleeve... Evan Zhang, who was a close associate of President Sun in Zhonghai Bank, was forced to dress like that and run outside the building? After Polly Li left, she grabbed her phone and immediately called Baldwin Qi, asking, "Baldwin sir, where are you?" "I'm having dinner with President Sun at the Tiandi Hotel. Is there something on April's side?" Baldwin Qi asked. "Do I only reach out to you when she has issues? Can't I have issues too?" Polly Li asked teasingly. Indeed, it was Baldwin Qi who had resolved the matter.
