Rebirth in officialdom and rising to the top

After putting down the tea cup, Zhong Zihua smiled and said:

"Wang Yang, aren't you curious that my daughter's name is Zhong Fuli, but we call her Zhong Joy?"

Chen Wangyang nodded honestly and said:

"To be honest, I'm very curious! At first I thought you had another daughter!"

Zhong Zihua shook his head and said:

"She is the only daughter I have. Joy is her English name, which was given to her by her mother. After her mother passed away, she no longer wanted anyone to call her Zhong Fuli."

Speaking of this, Zhong Zihua sighed sadly:

"Alas! Zhong Fuli is the name I gave her. She must hate me very much, right? That's why she doesn't want others to call her this name."

Thinking of everything about Zhong Joey, Chen Wangyang's previous disgust for her disappeared and was replaced by a touch of pity...

The world only knows that she, Zhong Fuli, is a proud daughter of heaven and the future richest woman, but who knows her bitterness and fragility?

Just when Chen Wangyang wanted to comfort Zhong Zihua a few more words, Zhong Zihua suddenly cheered up, waved his hand and said:

"Forget about these unhappy things, Wang Yang, your car was smashed by Joey. When you leave later, you can choose any car in the garage. If you like the car, just drive away. Uncle will give it to you!"

Chen Wangyang was a little frightened by Zhong Zihua's words:

Damn it, Mr. Zhong is so arrogant. The cheapest luxury cars in the garage cost several million, and the most expensive ones can even cost hundreds of millions. Are they just giving them away?

What he didn't know was that after what happened to him forcibly feeding Joey Zhong medicine just now, Zhong Zihua already regarded him as his future son-in-law in his heart. It was just a means of transportation, so what was there to be reluctant to part with?

To be honest, Chen Wangyang was a little moved for a moment, but then reason regained the high ground:

"I appreciate Uncle Zhong's kindness, but my car is not valuable. Any one of your luxury cars can be exchanged for hundreds of my cars, so let's forget it!"

After all, he is a public servant who has to report for duty tomorrow. What does it mean to drive a multi-million dollar car?

A charge of a huge amount of property with unknown origins can make him fall into the abyss instantly and never make it to shore.

Moreover, he did not want Zhong Zihua to regard himself as a greedy person.

Only then did Zhong Zihua remember that Chen Wangyang was a civil servant, he smiled apologetically and said:

"Uncle, I didn't think about it. Let's do this. Your car has been scrapped and has no value in repairing. I'll have someone go to the market to get you an identical one. You drive it first and we'll talk about the rest later!"

Zhong Zihua’s phrase “we’ll talk about it later” has a hidden meaning. It means that when you get married to my daughter, these problems will no longer exist...

Chen Wangyang was a man of two generations, and he also heard the overtones of Zhong Zihua.

To be honest, if Joey Zhong was not in this situation, he would definitely feel flattered, but now...

After all, he is someone who wants to get involved in the officialdom. If he really marries the arrogant and domineering Joey Zhong, he will be carrying a time bomb!

He is probably too busy wiping Joey Chung's butt every day, but he still wants to rise through the ranks and reach the pinnacle of power?

Go dream!

Pity is pity, but this girl is not a good match after all!

However, the exact same car can still be collected, after all, it is the compensation he deserves.

Thinking of this, Chen Wangyang nodded and said:

"Then Wang Yang is more respectful than obedient!"

Seeing that Chen Wangyang agreed, Zhong Zihua was very happy:

"The people below have prepared dinner. Let's chat while eating?"

Chen Wangyang had just drank at noon and hadn't eaten anything. He was a little hungry at this time. Naturally, he had no objection after hearing this?

The two came to the restaurant on the first floor of the villa, and the maids had already started serving dishes.

Looking at the dishes on the table that were more sumptuous than the engagement banquet at noon, Chen Wangyang couldn't help but say:

"Uncle Zhong, is this too rich? It's a waste for the two of us to finish it!"

Hearing what Chen Wangyang said, Zhong Zihua, who had always been thrifty, nodded happily and asked the maids to remove most of the dishes, leaving only four dishes and one soup.

Chen Wangyang nodded with peace of mind and said:

“Four dishes and one soup for a work meal, just right!”

Zhong Zihua laughed and said:

"Just looking at Wang Yang's attitude towards food, I know that you will definitely be a good official with strict self-discipline in the future!"

Chen Wangyang smiled sheepishly and said:

"As long as Uncle Zhong doesn't think I'm pretentious!"

Zhong Zihua waved his hand and said from the bottom of his heart:

"How could it be! Uncle, I was also a person who suffered hardships when I was a child. Who knows that every meal on the plate is hard work? Uncle also understands. But in a shopping mall, you often have to follow the trend, otherwise it will be difficult to move forward!"

Chen Wangyang nodded in understanding and stopped discussing this topic.

When men don't drink, they eat very quickly. Chen Wangyang and Zhong Zihua finished their dinner in a matter of seconds and returned to the study.

After the maid poured tea for the two of them and left, Zhong Zihua finally remembered the business:

"At noon, Wang Yang, you said you had something to tell me. What was it?"

Chen Wangyang didn't show off. He first picked up a pen from Zhong Zihua's desk, and then walked to a map of Qin City hanging on the wall of the study.

Under Zhong Zihua's unclear gaze, Chen Wangyang drew a line from top to bottom on the map with a pen.

Zhong Zihua also walked over at this time, looking at the line that went up from Qincheng North Railway Station to Daqu Town in Shan'an County in the south, and said thoughtfully:

"This should be a subway line, right?"

Chen Wangyang nodded and said confidently:

"That's right, the route map of the first phase of Qincheng City Metro Line [-]!"

Of course, Chen Wangyang also kept a secret and did not mark the specific location of each subway station.

After all, this is Chen Wangyang's only bargaining chip, and it's impossible for him to lag right away.

"hiss!"

Zhong Zihua took a breath when he heard this. Having been in business for decades, he naturally understood how huge business opportunities this simple line contained!

Even starting a year ago, Zhong Zihua had arranged for people to inquire about the planning of Metro Line [-] from all parties.

Unfortunately, the relevant departments were very strict this time. He spent a lot of money looking around, but still couldn't get the exact information.

This was also the reason why he was surprised. How did Chen Wangyang get the subway line [-] planning map that even Zhong Zihua couldn't get?

Although Zhong Zihua admired Chen Wangyang very much, and even wanted him to be his son-in-law, he was still a little unbelievable.

Seeing Zhong Zihua's doubts, Chen Wangyang smiled and said:

"If this is just a little speculation on my part, Uncle Zhong won't believe it, right?"

Zhong Zihua stared at Chen Wangyang's eyes closely, hoping to see some clues in Chen Wangyang's eyes.

However, he was quickly disappointed. The other person's eyes were clear and firm, and there was no hint of guilt...

With his thoughts changing rapidly, Zhong Zihua asked in a deep voice:

"Is this the news that Mr. Zhang gave you?"
