Chapter 370 The long staircase in front of the government building

When Lu Xun's family learned about this, they didn't react much. They had expected this result a long time ago. The information Lu Xun had taken out before was absolutely accurate, and this matter would be exposed sooner or later.

This day was bound to come sooner or later, but they didn't expect it to happen just when Lu Zheng was down and out, giving them a double blow.

Gu Shanzhi sighed regretfully and said nothing. Beauty can lead to bad things.

Lu Xun's doubts grew deeper and deeper. It was obvious that Xu Manman was after money, but her background was very simple and perfect. What went wrong?

He had a hunch that this Xu Manman must be no simple person.

Gu Shanzhi was nearing the end of her final draft. She was already eight months pregnant and would give birth in about two months. One day, when she was petting her dog at home, she suddenly received a call from a big boss named Xu, who asked her to come to the government office immediately.

Gu Shanzhi was confused. Was he in such a hurry? But he still asked the driver to take him to the government office.

It was her first time to set foot in a government office like this. She didn't expect it to be as majestic as she had imagined, and it gave her a very reliable feeling.

With the help of the housekeeper, she walked into the main door of the office with a big belly. Looking at the office building behind the long staircase in front of her, Gu Shanzhi almost burst into tears and pouted her lips and said, "Who designed this? Such a long staircase, are you planning to do some physical exercise before going to work every day?"

The housekeeper was also worried because the staircase was too long and extremely unfriendly to a pregnant woman like the young lady.

The two of them stared at each other in front of the stairs. Gu Shanzhi's big belly attracted many people's attention. This gave Gu Shanzhi and the housekeeper even more headaches.

At this moment, the secretary of the boss surnamed Xu hurriedly trotted down the stairs and said to Gu Shanzhi apologetically, "Doctor Gu, I'm really sorry. We just remembered that the stairs here are a bit long. It's not convenient for you to go up since you are pregnant. I have contacted several armed police officers, and they will carry you up with a stretcher later."

Gu Shanzhi quickly shook his head and refused frantically: "No, no, no, this is too exaggerated. It seems like I have some serious illness. I will walk slowly. I will have to inconvenience you to accompany me and stop every now and then."

The secretary said quickly, "The stairs are too long. Madam Lu, you are of noble status. If you get tired, I won't be able to explain to my superiors."

Gu Shanzhi had a tearful expression and forced a smile. She said to the secretary, "It's okay. Let's go. I don't want to be the focus. If I'm carried up there, it will seem like I've sacrificed myself gloriously."

"Pooh, pooh, pooh, young madam, please don't talk nonsense." The housekeeper hurriedly corrected Gu Shanzhi's words upon hearing it.

"Let's go. Let's walk slowly. It's like exercising in advance." After saying that, he walked up the stairs with difficulty, supported by the housekeeper and the secretary on his left and right.

Fortunately, the stairs were just long and had many steps, and the height between each step was reasonable, otherwise she would have really lost her life here.

After walking up and down this staircase for nearly twenty minutes, Gu Shanzhi finally reached the end, panting. She panted heavily and said, "You people who work here must be very healthy, walking up and down like this every day."

The secretary replied respectfully: "Doctor Gu, this staircase also has its meaning."

"Really? What does it mean?" The secretary's words really aroused Gu Shanzhi's curiosity. In her impression since childhood, it seemed that all government agencies had a long staircase in front of their doors.

"Our government building represents the image and authority of the country. These stairs can enhance the government's authority and make the people feel solemn and dignified. This is not a place where people can act arbitrarily and unreasonably.

Secondly, such a long staircase can prevent crowds from gathering, so that people who come to do business don’t have to crowd at the door, which would damage the image.

Furthermore, when you look up from downstairs, don’t you think these stairs make the building more mysterious? From a design perspective, they are mainly designed to enhance the government’s authority and mystery, and to improve the image of our government.”

"Is there such a thing? Indeed, from the moment I walked in, I felt that this place was very solemn and majestic. It gave me a sense of security."

As they talked, several people walked into the office of the boss named Xu under the guidance of the secretary.

When Premier Xu saw Gu Shanzhi coming, he quickly stood up and said, "Xiaozhi, I was inconsiderate. I forgot that you were pregnant and made you walk up such a long staircase. It's all my fault. Come and sit down, quickly."

Gu Shanzhi was supported by the housekeeper and sat on the chair. The secretary promptly poured water for Gu Shanzhi and the housekeeper. Gu Shanzhi took a sip and asked, "Uncle Xu, what's the matter? I have to come here now."

The boss surnamed Xu said with a headache on his face: "This is something that cannot be explained in a few words over the phone. Come with me to another place later, and someone there will explain it to you clearly. Your housekeeper will stay here."

Uncle Ping immediately said, "That won't work. Our young master said I can't leave the young mistress."

The boss surnamed Xu was not angry either. He smiled and said, "Are you still worried that Xiao Zhi will get into trouble with me? This is the safest place in China."

Gu Shanzhi also turned around and said to the housekeeper, "Uncle Ping, you are tired too, just take a rest here. Uncle Xu, it is very safe here. This is the highest-level office in China. Don't worry about the safety here. There is no place safer than here. Besides, Uncle Xu is watching over me, so it's okay."

The secretary also said to the housekeeper: "Don't worry, we will take good care of Madam Lu. You can just have a cup of tea here and take a rest."

Not long after, the boss named Xu took Gu Shanzhi away from his office.

Pushing open the door of another office, Gu Shanzhi found a man sitting inside who looked familiar. Premier Xu said to the man, "Old Chen, I have brought my baby to you. The long staircase at the door is so tiring that the child is sweating."

Gu Shanzhi suddenly remembered that this person was the one he had met before at the home of the big boss surnamed Xu. This was the highest-ranking senior official surnamed Chen. Gu Shanzhi greeted him politely: "Hello, senior official surnamed Chen, I am Gu Shanzhi."

The senior official surnamed Chen smiled and said, "Please take a seat. It looks like you are about to give birth, right?"

Gu Shanzhi looked down at her round belly, touched it and said, "There are still two months left. Thank you, Senior Official Chen, for your concern."

The senior official surnamed Chen continued, "I was not thoughtful enough. The stairs at our door are indeed inconvenient for pregnant women. I didn't know you were so pregnant. I was wrong, but the situation was urgent. I immediately asked Old Xu to call you over. I didn't even consider that you were pregnant. I'm really sorry."

The boss surnamed Xu helped Gu Shanzhi sit down, and then Gu Shanzhi said to the senior official surnamed Chen: "It doesn't matter. This child is still in the belly and can come to this highest-level government agency in China. It's her blessing. I was in my twenties before I had the opportunity to set foot here."
