Wooh... I’ve been trying to connect for about 40 minutes. It’s not that I’m not punctual, it’s just that I can’t get through at all, Qidian keeps lagging...

"Sss..." The scorching pain eased the originally furrowed brows, and Liu Zhengxing leisurely crushed the cigarette butt in the ashtray and dialed Luo Zhenggang’s direct line: "Xiao Luo, hurry over here."
Three minutes later, Luo Zhenggang rushed over anxiously: "Secretary, is there an urgent matter?"
"Sit down and talk..." A rare enthusiastic smile appeared on the pale cheeks deprived of sunlight: "It’s been a long ti since we brothers have talked, let’s communicate well now that we have ti."
Luo Zhenggang’s heart trembled, wondering if he was being urged to sign contracts with those construction companies ahead of ti? He had previously voiced his concerns about those companies reluctantly and got dismissed with a—don’t just look at appearances.
Initially pleased about the new city renovation project landing on him, now he genuinely felt it was a hot potato. He could neither discard it nor handle it, and if not careful, he might even lose his life over it.
"Zhenggang..." Liu Zhengxing leaned forward intimately, patting Luo Zhenggang: "Mayor Yang has been working hard communicating with higher-ups regarding the new city project approval. The approval day shouldn’t be too far, you’ll have more responsibilities. Are you ntally prepared?"
"I’m ready. I will ensure the quality of the new city district. Don’t worry, Secretary." Luo Zhenggang’s heart pounded, it really was about this matter. Asking him to build shoddy constructions went against his conscience, but abandoning his family was also unthinkable.
A fleeting displeasure crossed Liu Zhengxing’s face, never had he t soone so stubborn. Thinking of today’s agenda, he switched back to a smile: "Indeed, quality is of utmost importance. For the companies that win the bids, you must supervise them well."
"I will." Luo Zhenggang secretly wondered why the other party hadn’t brought up the key issue, which was unlike his usual style.
"I trust you in this; it’s just my habit to remind." Liu Zhengxing leaned back comfortably in his chair: "Honestly, I often unconsciously still see you as that naive youngster, ha ha..."
"Thank you for your appreciation and for promoting , Secretary." Luo Zhenggang felt increasingly unsure of the other’s purpose in summoning him.
"It’s not quite like that; you have helped a lot. By the way, I heard that your father has co to Island City, is that true?" Liu Zhengxing looked helplessly: "Leaving No.1 order at Eight Great Scenic Spots was really inconvenient, sotis one is the last to know."
"My father, along with Ye’er and Feng’er, has co back and will now reside at my place." Luo Zhenggang smiled apologetically: "Considering how busy you are, Secretary, I didn’t ntion it."
"That’s where you’re wrong. We co from the sa place, and our elders are actually distant cousins. Let’s arrange a ti for our families to get together and have so fun."
"I will follow your arrangents, Secretary." Luo Zhenggang glanced at the ti. Did he just call him to casually chat and bond? He has indeed beco quite popular lately, yet he was certain Liu Zhengxing was unaware of the Wen Family’s affairs and firmly believed Yang Songping would not disclose it to Liu Zhengxing. Yang Family? Yes, could Liu Zhengxing’s deanor be due to the Yang Family?
"Zhenggang, it seems you don’t regard as a brother." Luo Zhenggang shook his head and sighed: "I’ve always considered you as my younger brother."
"How could that be, Secretary. You are my benefactor, my elder brother. If there’s anything I’ve done inadequately, please correct ." Thinking through the crux, Luo Zhenggang remained composed.
"When did you learn to speak so smoothly?" Liu Zhengxing changed his tone: "Then tell , why didn’t you inform about Ye’er’s big news? After all, I’m her uncle."
"Secretary, there’s no such news, it’s just rumors spread by outsiders. If it were true, how could I not inform you?" Luo Zhenggang was very calm having prepared psychologically.
"Zhenggang, just between us, Xingxing has long liked Ye’er. My wife wanted to propose the match, but I stopped her. It’s not that I don’t like Ye’er, it’s just I think she’s too young and wanted to wait a few more years, but soone else made the move first.
Your sister-in-law ca to my office this morning and gave a severe scolding right after she left." Liu Zhengxing sighed lightly: "I am not a qualified father indeed. By the way, you say that the rumor about Yang Family and Luo Family forming a matrimonial alliance is false? Give the real deal, what’s actually going on?"
