Seeing how excited the woman was, Yang Cheng touched his face and smiled foolishly, "Alright, let's eat then. Let's eat, haha …"
Tang Wan was annoyed and amused at the same time. This guy could even say 'universal love'.
After eating for a while, Tang Wan recalled something and said, "Oh right, my grandfather asked me to thank you in person. I almost forgot."
"Thank you? What is it? "Yang Cheng scratched his face with his chopsticks," I don't remember lending you any money. "
Tang Wan rolled her eyes again, "Do you think the Tang family is short of money?"
Yang Cheng was puzzled, "Then what is it?"
Tang Wan said, "Didn't you slaughter the Yan family? Don't deny it. Although the government didn't release any information and my grandfather didn't explain it to me, I can guess that no one other than you could wipe out the Yan family in one night. Moreover, I was on alert for the past few days because I was guarding against the Yan family."
When Yang Cheng heard this, he put away his cynical expression and asked seriously, "What does this have to do with the Tang family?"
Tang Wan nodded, "Don't you remember? Your father … Oh, I mean Commander Yang Pojun ran for the standing committee of the Central Committee but he lost. Of course, you are one of the reasons why he was removed from the position. This is undeniable, but more importantly, the Yan family has a genius like Yan Buwen … In order to ensure the Yan family's position, many people from small parties also felt that the Yan family should have a place, so they gave one of the eight standing committee seats to the Yan family."
Yang Cheng still didn't understand, "What does this have to do with the Tang family?"
"Let me finish." Tang Wan drank a mouthful of soup and seemed a little thirsty, "Because you killed Yan Qingtian, the position of the standing committee was immediately vacated. It happened too suddenly, so it was impossible to run for the position. So, after the four families discussed it, we, the Tang family, took over the position. "
Yang Cheng asked curiously, "The Ning family didn't object? The remaining branch members of the Yan family would have interfered too, right? "
Tang Wan smiled, "The eight standing committee members that decide Hua Xia's daily affairs are usually two seats for each of the four families. But because the Tang family is weak in the political arena and the Ning family is at its peak, the Ning family has three seats, the Li family has two, the Yang Family has two, and the Tang family has one. But because the Yang family and the Li family's main forces are in the military, having two seats is enough influence. Our Tang family is different, we are already in a weak position, and we only have one seat … "
"Wait, if that's the case, did Yan Qingtian replace the Yang Family's seat or the Li Family's seat?" Yang Cheng asked.
"Of course it's the Yang Family," Tang Wan smiled a little embarrassedly, "I remember telling you in the past that the Yang Family's biggest problem is that they have too few descendants. In your generation, other than you and Yang Lie, only Yuan Ye, that kid whose surname isn't Yang, is related to you by blood. The others are considered distant relatives. Commander Yang Pojun only has a few cousins in the central government.
Originally, Commander Yang Pojun wanted to replace an uncle who retired, but he was replaced by Yan Qingtian halfway. So it became three from the Ning family, two from the Li family, one from the Tang family, and one from the Yang Family.
Now that Yan Qingtian is dead, the seat should have been taken by the Yang Family, but because you killed Yan Qingtian, if the Yang Family takes that seat, it would be equivalent to giving in to you. So, for the sake of face, the central government gave the seat to the Tang family after some discussion. After all, the Tang family is the most neutral. My second uncle has already replaced him and become the Vice Premier and Standing Committee. For our Tang family, this is a good start for us to recover our political strength. "
Yang Cheng smiled disdainfully, "What's the big deal? Whoever likes it can go. You have to thank me for this. I just want the Yan family to get lost, I don't want to help anyone."
Tang Wan sighed softly, "You may not understand, but in fact, entering the Standing Committee is quite useful, especially when it comes to voting on important matters. Hua Xia's current economic development speed can produce unparalleled profits every year. So, as long as they can gain the upper hand, it will be a huge benefit for any family. I know that you have the ability to stay above the country's political power, but you have to know that the real rulers of this world are the leaders and interest groups of the big countries. A person can't always go against the country, unless you really don't care about anything. "
Yang Cheng was silent for a while, then said with a bitter smile, "I know what you're saying, otherwise I wouldn't have chosen to return to the Yang Family. Although I destroyed the Yan family, the most important thing is that damn Yan Buwen escaped. He's dangerous, so I can't use my own men to find him. Even if I find them, they will be tortured to death by him. I can't let my men die.
I can't even be sure if I can kill him if I meet him again. As long as he exists, it means that he can mobilize any forces to deal with me. Plotting and framing are all his usual tricks. At that time, maybe Hongmeng will also think that my existence will affect the stability of Hua Xia's foundation, and it's not impossible for them to confront me.
I can be fearless, but the people around me, whether it's Ruoxi, my mother, Qiangwei, Qianni, and of course, you, Tangtang, and Yuan Ye, all of you have your own lives. You have people and things you care about and want to protect. I can't just destroy a lot of things just because I don't like them, without considering the consequences. So, I must have enough official power to deal with a head-on confrontation. "
Tang Wan said happily, "It's good that you know. So, you should go back to the Yang Family as soon as possible. I think, with Commander Yang Pojun and your brother Yang Lie around, it may not be smooth for you to take over the position of the head of the Yang Family. But as long as you hold the power of the Yang Family in your hands, you will have the support of more than half of the military generals. At least in Hua Xia, you won't have any pressure from the officials. "
Yang Cheng nodded. In fact, Yang Cheng had also considered that if Ning Guangyao was willing to acknowledge Lin Ruoxi as his biological daughter, admit the mistakes of the past 20 years, and treat the Ning family as his own, it would also be a good thing. After all, the Ning family was the number one in power. However, during the meeting in Yan Jing, Yang Cheng gave up on this idea because of how cold-blooded Ning Guangyao was towards Ning Guangyao.
Compared to the strength of the Ning family, Yang Cheng hoped that Lin Ruoxi would not be harmed.
At this moment, Yang Cheng's phone vibrated. He took a look and saw that it was Lin Ruoxi!
Oh no, did Lin Ruoxi notice something when I didn't go back for a night? After all, I didn't have breakfast with her in the morning.
Yang Cheng carefully picked up the call and asked Tang Wan not to speak first. He smiled and said, "Ruoxi, why did you call me at noon?"
Lin Ruoxi tried to suppress her anger. "I can't control you if you go out and sleep with other women, but why didn't you even come to the banquet today?! If you don't want to go to work, just tell me! It's not a big deal if I send someone else to be the director! I'm so angry! "
"Banquet?" Yang Cheng was puzzled, "What banquet?"
"You … Do you really want to anger me to death!? It's fine if you don't show up for today's entertainment media conference, but now you're going to meet with those guests, and you, the director of the entertainment branch, aren't here. What will those big-name media people and star directors think of our Yu Lei!? "Lin Ruoxi scolded.
Yang Cheng scratched his head, "Why don't I understand? I didn't know there was such a thing!"
"Nonsense! Didn't you hire that Japanese Hannya as your secretary? Didn't she tell you? "Lin Ruoxi said unhappily.
"Hannya?" Yang Cheng slapped his head, "Oh right, I didn't go to work yesterday, but she didn't call me either."
Lin Ruoxi didn't know what to say. She cursed a few times, "Anyway, come here immediately!"
Yang Cheng felt as if his eardrums were about to shatter. He didn't expect this woman, who usually spoke gently, to be so loud when she was angry.
What made Yang Cheng at a loss whether to laugh or cry was that she didn't even tell him where the banquet was!
Helpless, Yang Cheng could only give Hannya a call.
The female ninja quickly picked up and said respectfully, "Master, what can I do for you?"
Yang Cheng was still not used to this woman's "catchy" word "master". He clicked his tongue and said, "Hannya, just now General Lin said that I was absent from some kind of exchange meeting and banquet? What is it? "
Hannya immediately replied, "It's an exchange with the entertainment media circle that our Yu Lei's chief planner will be working on for the second half of the year and next year's products. It will open this morning, and there will be a banquet in the middle. In the afternoon, it will be held until six o 'clock, and then there will be a party. As the director of the entertainment branch, Master needs to attend."
"Then why didn't you tell me yesterday!?" Yang Cheng asked.
Hannya quickly said in a low voice, "Master, please forgive me. I thought Master had something urgent to attend to, so I didn't dare to come to work and disturb Master …"
Yang Cheng was about to go crazy. He didn't know how Noriko Okawa trained this female ninja. Her "servile nature" was vividly displayed. Even a phone call from her made her seem as if she was afraid that he would chop off her head!
Yang Cheng didn't bother with her as he was afraid that she would make a "disembowelment" if she had nothing better to do.
After asking for the location, Yang Cheng bade farewell to Tang Wan in a hurry. As a businesswoman, Tang Wan was very understanding.
He still had to do what he had to do. Lin Ruoxi had a strong sense of professionalism and responsibility. If he didn't go, she might think that he was looking down on her again. Then, it would be his turn to make a painful "disembowelment"!
