Since he'd run into someone unexpected, and an acquaintance at that, Li Qian didn't leave right away. Instead, he started chatting with Zhao Xiwei.
In reality, there wasn't much to talk about. Although they had fought side-by-side once, strictly speaking, he and Zhao Xiwei weren't very close.
Li Qian wasn't surprised to see Zhao Xiwei here, but the fact that she had actively sought him out was intriguing.
It definitely wasn't just to reminisce; after all, they didn't have much of a past to reminisce about. Sure enough, after a bit of small talk, Zhao Xiwei got to the point.
"Li Qian," Zhao Xiwei began, stating her purpose for seeking him out, "our deputy director would like to discuss something with you."
Li Qian knew, of course, that the small talk was just a pretense. He didn't know the deputy director of the Jiangnan Province Public Security Bureau at all, though. 'Why would he want to see me…'
