"Don’t worry, I have my plans. You just need to follow my lead." Bai Xiaosheng smiled at her, responding to all her worries with just this one sentence. Grace had more to say, but seeing Bai Xiaosheng’s confident and warm smile, she involuntarily swallowed back her words. No matter how this trip turns out, she was willing to go with Bai Xiaosheng... The two of them entered the city hall building and walked all the way to the reception desk in the hall. Standing behind the Haru Municipal Government’s reception desk were all beautiful women wearing sweet smiles and with great attitudes. "Excuse me, is there anything I can help you with, sir?" one of the beauties asked with a smile as Bai Xiaosheng approached. "I’d like to see the mayor." Bai Xiaosheng said politely. "Oh, do you have an appointment?" the beauty asked again. Bai Xiaosheng shook his head directly and answered with a smile, "No." Bai Xiaosheng spoke so plainly and straightforwardly that Grace, who was behind him, felt a bit embarrassed. The beauty who was about to get the registration book was momentarily stunned by Bai Xiaosheng’s answer, but then courteously said to him, "Sorry, sir, without an appointment, you can’t see the mayor. How about this, please give me your identity and the purpose of your visit. If it meets the requirements, I can schedule an appointment for you, but it will likely be in two weeks..." "I’m afraid I can’t wait that long. I have something very important to discuss with Mayor Gordon right now." Bai Xiaosheng interrupted the beauty, speaking seriously yet with a smile. Listening to Bai Xiaosheng, Grace felt a wave of helplessness. She thought Bai Xiaosheng had some special connections to see the mayor, only to realize he was determined to meet by force of will. This could only end in failure! The beauty’s smile slightly faded, as if indicating she couldn’t help Bai Xiaosheng. "Please call your supervisor. I’d like to speak with them," Bai Xiaosheng said. "Sir, if you insist on this, I’ll have to call security!" The beauty assumed Bai Xiaosheng was causing trouble and her expression darkened. At this moment, a middle-aged woman in a business suit, wearing a name badge on her chest, walked over, looked at Bai Xiaosheng, then at the beauty, and asked, "What’s going on?" "Miss Lauren, this man insists on seeing the mayor without an appointment!" the beauty said. Lauren, the middle-aged woman, looked at Bai Xiaosheng and asked expressionlessly, "Is that so, sir?!" This text is hosted at Nove1Fire.net "More or less," Bai Xiaosheng smiled and, before Lauren could respond again, reached out a hand to pass something over. "Please give this to the mayor. I believe he will want to meet me after seeing it." Lauren frowned as she looked at what Bai Xiaosheng handed over. It was a yellowish item, about the size of a coin. As Lauren took it, she felt it was quite heavy in her hand. The material was unusual; it was made of gold. Looking closely, she found the emblem on the front exquisite beyond words, and in the center was actually a royal insignia! Grace, behind Bai Xiaosheng, only saw him hand something over to Lauren, unclear on what it was. As she stretched her neck to see better, she noticed Lauren’s expression drastically changed, full of surprise and disbelief. "What could it be that causes such astonishment?" Just as Grace was wondering, she heard Lauren respectfully return the item with both hands to Bai Xiaosheng and say in an extremely polite tone, "Sir, please come with me! I will take you to see Mayor Gordon!" Seeing the supervisor’s attitude, Grace’s eyes widened in disbelief. The beauty at the reception desk also had her eyes wide open, her mouth forming an "O" shape, as if it could fit a small egg. "Thank you." Bai Xiaosheng retrieved the medal, smiled at Lauren, and waved for Grace to follow along. In fact, Bai Xiaosheng himself was quite surprised that a supervisor was able to recognize the emblem. It seems its convenience in use is highly effective and not necessarily limited to prominent figures. Even though Haru City and London City are geographically apart, they belong to the same country. The state where Haru City is located is practically an enclave. Upon learning this information, Bai Xiaosheng was instantly relieved. Henry, Gian didn’t stand behind Berman and feared no threats. This time, it should be Mayor Gordon who steps in. I believe Mayor Gordon wouldn’t refuse! "If I’d known earlier that even a mere supervisor recognizes this medal, I would have given it to Henry and Gian to see. Wouldn’t it have been equally effective?" Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t help but ponder this matter and then shook his head quietly, "Forget it, since we’re here." Bai Xiaosheng and Grace followed Lauren, taking the private elevator upstairs, heading straight to the mayor’s office. On the way, Grace couldn’t help wanting to ask Bai Xiaosheng about the thing he took out and how it was so effective! But Grace never found the opportunity. Finally, they arrived outside the mayor’s office. "I need to borrow your medal. I have to show it to Mayor Gordon," Lauren spoke very politely. Bai Xiaosheng nodded, took out the medal, and handed it over to her. After receiving it, Lauren smiled, knocked on the mayor’s office door, and only entered after obtaining permission. Once the door closed, Grace couldn’t help but lower her voice and eagerly ask, "What is that thing you have? Why is it so effective?!" Bai Xiaosheng smiled, not hiding it as he leaned closer to tell Grace, "That’s the Y Royal Golden Knight Medal!" Grace blinked, seemingly not having heard clearly, "You said, Y Royal... Golden Knight Medal!" Bai Xiaosheng smiled and nodded at her. Grace suddenly comprehended, completely stunned in place.
