Minister Li stood to the side, sweating profusely. Old Master Yang didn't call his name, so he didn't dare to go up and greet him. However, after listening to Old Master Yang's words, he couldn't help but send a distress signal to Secretary Song …
But who would have thought that Secretary Song wouldn't even look at him. Smile only accompanied Old Master Yang. He looked as if nothing had happened.
He was trying to draw a clear line between them …
Secretary Song was also depressed. He did not expect Xiao Zheng to have so much power. He actually brought up Old Master Yang. Secondly, he didn't expect that Minister Li would be so muddle-headed as to not give Secretary Zhao face.
Who didn't know that Secretary Zhao was Senior Yang's confidant?
Wasn't slapping his face the same as slapping Senior Yang's face?
Moreover, Secretary Song had heard of the past between Old Yang and Lord Ye. It was said that Old Master Yang owed Lord Ye a big favor 30 years ago and never had the chance to repay it. This time, Lin Huayin invited Old Master Yang to come out of seclusion. It was probably to return the favor, right?
Now that he owed them a big favor, he naturally wouldn't scratch an itch through their boots. Secretary Song knew that Minister Li was completely screwed this time. The Standing Committee of the Municipal Committee was basically the end of his political career. It was impossible to climb any higher.
"Little Song. Is the bamboo forest in the east still there? "Old Master Yang smiled and asked casually.
"Yes." Secretary Song smiled. "A few years ago, when the compound was being renovated, someone suggested that the bamboo forest should be turned into a small amusement park. I know that you used to love going there to have a cup of tea and enjoy the breeze. So I rejected it. "
Old Yang pointed at Secretary Song with a Smile. "You."
Even Secretary Song, an old subordinate of Old Master Yang, was not sure what he meant by this. He just smiled and said, "Leader. Shall we go for a drink? "
"Let's go." Old Master Yang nodded with a Smile. "Take out your secret stash and let me have a taste."
"Definitely."
From the beginning to the end, Senior Yang didn't even look at Minister Li. Other than greeting Xiao Zheng, Minister Gong, and a few other people, he left the Li family with Secretary Song.
"Phew —"
As soon as Old Master Yang left, the atmosphere suddenly relaxed. Many of the young masters looked as if they had just survived a disaster.
Elder Yang's aura was truly hair-raising. Just by standing there casually, he was able to completely crush people, making them unable to move.
Old Master Yang left.
Lin Huayin did not continue to accompany him. Instead, she slowly walked up to Xiao Zheng, and her cold eyes gradually became gentle. "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Xiao Zheng shrugged. He smiled and nodded.
"Then let's go home." Lin Huayin held Xiao Zheng's hand in front of everyone's eyes and swaggered out of the Li residence.
Xiao Zheng wanted to greet Minister Gong, Jiang Qing, and the others, but they were old acquaintances, so he believed that they would understand.
After getting in the car, Xiao Zheng started the car and peeked at Lin Huayin. "Mr. Yang, did you invite her? He's a super big shot … "
"Not really." Lin Huayin pursed her lips. "He owes Grandpa a favor. This time, it's considered repaying the debt."
"What a big loss!"
Xiao Zheng slapped his thigh and said with extreme heartache, "Aren't you too much of a prodigal? You're going to use such a big favor on me? And I don't have much to do here. At most, I'll go to the police station for a few days. What's this? "
He could see that Old Master Yang wanted to return the favor this time. Otherwise, he wouldn't have forced the Li father and son to such an extent. He didn't even say a word to Minister Li from beginning to end. This was a kind of statement. It was a way to send a signal to the outside world.
Minister Li had offended Old Master Yang. Could he still have any achievements in the political arena in the future?
At the very least, Old Master Yang's faction couldn't tolerate him.
Lin Huayin glared at Xiao Zheng, who was driving. "I know they bullied you. Why are you the one who was punished in the end? Just because their family has a strong official background? "
Xiao Zheng smiled bitterly. "So you used Old Master Yang as a platform?"
Lin Huayin didn't say anything and pursed her lips.
Xiao Zheng was moved. He gently held Lin Huayin's delicate hand and said softly, "Thank you."
When Lin Huayin heard this, she tilted her head and glanced at Xiao Zheng. "Are you scolding me?"
"Huh?" Xiao Zheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I'm thanking you."
"Do I need you to thank me?" Lin Huayin said in a domineering manner, but it was also heartwarming.
Just based on the relationship between the two of them, wasn't it natural for them to support each other? Was there a need to say thank you?
Xiao Zheng understood Old Master Lin's intentions, but he carefully played with Lin Huayin's slender fingers. As he fiddled with them, he asked, "Wasn't Old Master Yang quite enthusiastic just now? Why is he ignoring us now that the matter is settled? "
"I can't guarantee whether Old Master Yang really appreciates you or not. But with our current identities, we're not worthy of his attention. "
In the business world, Xiao Zheng basically knew everything she knew. In the officialdom, Xiao Zheng couldn't say that he didn't understand it at all, but he definitely didn't know as much as Lin Huayin, who had been influenced since childhood. Especially the superstructure.
Xiao Zheng nodded and asked, "So he came this time just to return the favor?"
"Yes." Lin Huayin nodded gently.
"He only owes the Ye family a favor?" Xiao Zheng gently pinched Lin Huayin's palm. It felt great.
After what happened just now, Xiao Zheng felt that it was simply too cool to be a person at Old Master Yang's level. With just a few words, he set the tone. He didn't even need to say anything to completely control the situation.
Earlier, he even said that he wanted to lock up Xiao Zheng. But when Old Master Yang came, who dared to mention this? When Xiao Zheng left, did Minister Li dare to fart?
"Isn't it enough to owe him one?" Lin Huayin narrowed her eyes slightly. "If I really owed him too much, the Ye family and Grandpa Yang wouldn't have this kind of relationship now."
In a society based on officials, which official could tolerate being inferior to others? Especially when it wasn't their own leader, but a businessman?
This was the so-called great kindness turned into enmity.
When businessmen and officials dealt with each other, they were very particular about the scale. They couldn't appear incompetent, but they also couldn't put themselves in too high a position.
When Xiao Zheng heard this, he deeply agreed.
This was the kind of relationship he had with Yu Fei and Yu Ping. He didn't consider himself a boss, but he could definitely help them. They found a balance from an equal relationship. It seemed that no one owed anyone, but they slowly established a subtle relationship.
If they really wanted to be arrogant and suppress it too much. Yu Fei might not care now, but once he soared, who could guarantee that he wouldn't turn against Xiao Zheng?
"Old Lin." Xiao Zheng drove the car and called out softly.
"Yes?" Lin Huayin said softly.
"Is there anything you don't understand?" Xiao Zheng sighed. "Why do I feel that nothing is difficult for you?"
Lin Huayin glanced at Xiao Zheng and said expressionlessly, "I don't understand why every time something happens to you, I'm the last to know. And it's someone else who tells me. "
Xiao Zheng's heart skipped a beat. He knew that Old Lin was going to settle the score later. He hurriedly grinned and explained, "Because I think it's too small, it's not worth it for you to do it yourself."
Lin Huayin looked at Xiao Zheng deeply. "No matter how small your matter is, it's bigger than the sky."
