"Vice Leader Ma Xianglan is right, indeed I still have a lot to learn from you all,"
Ren Zhong said very humbly.
This slightly surprised Ma Xianglan. Weren't the records saying this person is extrely arrogant and quite troubleso?
The Minister also said that Ren Zhong is both emotional and lacks a sense of reverence towards high-ranking citizens, making him very difficult to deal with.
Ma Xiaocheng specifically instructed many subordinates to adjust appropriately when dealing with Ren Zhong, and not to carry the high stance that high-ranking citizens usually have towards lower-ranking ones.
Ma Xianglan felt a bit disgruntled at heart, but didn't overdo it, just wanted to test a bit, but didn't expect to hit the cotton with a punch.
"Mr. Ren, you're too kind, but there's no need to put too much pressure on yourself. The situation is extrely complex this ti, and our current attempts are rely doing our best and leaving the rest to destiny."
Ren Zhong shrugged, "It doesn't matter, Ma Minister has already fulfilled the promise. I've beco a Seventh Level Citizen, as for the rest, I can only say I'll do my best. Even if it ends in failure, what does it have to do with ?"
At this point in the conversation, Ma Xianglan felt a warning in her heart.
She finally realized that Ren Zhong had sensed her displeasure and indirectly warned her with subtle language.
She quickly gathered herself, "Although that's the case, the Seventh Level is not the end of the citizenship system. If successful, the benefits you can gain are unimaginable."
Ren Zhong: "But after all, I'm an outsider, right?"
Ma Xianglan was at a loss for words for a mont.
Fortunately, Ren Zhong gave her a way out and changed the subject, "Speaking of which, to my knowledge, ordinary people who stay up late for a long ti can easily die suddenly. Deputy Leader Ma, you're working hard. I used to not believe that even high-level citizens would work night shifts."
Ma Xianglan shook her head with a smile, "It's not too bad. I'm not on night shift every day. Moreover, the potion we use is different from the mandatory stimulants used by the lower classes; it's a body clock deception potion. As long as it's not used consecutively for more than a week, there are no side effects."
Ren Zhong was stunned, "There's such a good thing? Why have I never heard of it before?"
"This potion is extrely costly and is a benefit only for official employees within core enterprises, and it's only open to middle managent and above. It's not just about money; even many Seventh Level Citizens outside don't know about it."
"I see."
"By the way, Mr. Ren, here's a wrist watch for you. Although it can't connect to the internet as fast as before and lacks holographic simulation, we've restored the brainwave synchronization feature of the wrist watch and added an electromagnetic communication module. The data transmission speed within Shendu City's local area network is 100m/s, sufficient for checking information."
Ren Zhong took this larger wrist watch, which looked quite Iraq war-damaged style, and grinned, "As expected of the Deep Communication Group, quite impressive. So it seems the Association's financial system will soon be restored, and we can check our Contribution Points balance?"
Ma Xianglan shook her head: "I don't know about that. Not everyone has even this wrist watch now; in the Algorithm Project Group, only I and five other S-level team leaders have it. As for yours, the Minister specifically instructed to keep one for you beforehand."
Ren Zhong nodded, "That's good..."
"Hmm."
"Mr. Ren, over there is your office, equipped with a rest area. The Minister didn't expect you to co directly to the company, so no reception was arranged. I'm just filling in, but now I need to return to my post. If you want to rest in the villa area, notify and I'll arrange for basic reception staff to take you there."
Ren Zhong shook his head, "No need, ti is of the essence. I'll make do in the office tonight and strive to get to work by tomorrow."
Poof!
Ma Xianglan couldn't hold back in the end. But just as she laughed, she felt it was inappropriate, so she turned her face away and awkwardly explained, "Sorry, I choked on so saliva."
Ren Zhong put on a stern face, "No problem, you go ahead with your work."
Only then did Ma Xianglan flee in a panic.
At this mont, both were engrossed in their own thoughts.
Ma Xianglan couldn't understand why the Minister held such a high regard for an outsider, even allocating all the Credit Points originally ant for herself and her team mbers to Ren Zhong alone, and forcibly elevating him to the Seventh Level Citizen status.
Ren Zhong, on the other hand, felt bored and weary.
He was now very adept at this low-level scheming, but being good at it didn't an he liked it.
He could even guess with a toe what kind of face Ma Xianglan would have after being "slapped" by him tomorrow morning.
