35: Who is this kid? He's fucking awesome!
The Mayor's words carried extraordinary significance.
The dignified Mayor of Jiangcheng City had specially arranged a banquet for Chen Yang!
And he was going to personally toast him?
Not just one drink?
Was this not giving him enough face?
Could an ordinary person achieve such status?
Everyone was overjoyed.
Childs nickname was successfully rescued, the Human Trafficker was captured, and Chen Yang and Li Jie became sworn brothers.
Every single one of these events was a great piece of news!
Inside the car.
There was laughter and cheerful chatter.
Han Feixue, in particular, was extremely excited!
Introducing Chen Yang and taking on this job was truly thrilling and full of twists and turns!
Although she did not earn any money.
However.
The benefits she received were far beyond what money could compare to.
Jiangcheng City.
It was an economically highly developed city in Dragon Country.
With a population of ten million and immense strength.
As a dignified Mayor of a major city.
The influence he wielded was absolutely extraordinary.
From now on, Chen Yang had a powerful backer.
No matter what he did, as long as it wasn't illegal or against regulations, everything would proceed smoothly.
This kind of benefit.
How could a mere few tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands compare?
[Ding!]
[Gained 10 points. Current cumulative points: 80 points. Keep up the good work!]
Chen Yang's slightly regretful heart felt a little comforted.
Even if he didn't earn money, the points could not be less.
Every point he gained meant his foundation became stronger!
He swore.
From now on, he would absolutely not take on any non-profitable business.
This time.
He didn't accept money, only favors.
This was the first time, and it would be the last.
Favors might not be repaid, but money must be given!
This was his principle for doing business!
In the car.
Li Jie and Xu Ruoyun, the couple, tightly embraced Childs nickname.
Enjoying the joy of surviving the ordeal!
Han Feixue and Feng Danqing were also beaming with smiles.
Everyone was in high spirits.
Laughter filled the air.
However, Huang Sanjin's mood at this moment was terrible!
He had done something satisfying today—slapping the face of that poor bastard.
He had planned to hug Bai Xiaoyue and go explore some new creative ideas.
Unlocking a new position.
Unexpectedly.
The Traffic Police Officer called him.
Informing him.
That he had been caught speeding, driving dangerously, and compromising traffic safety.
He was being penalized 12 points and his driver's license was revoked.
He must return to school to relearn and retake the driver's test.
Otherwise.
He would never be allowed to drive again.
"Bang!"
Huang Sanjin violently slammed the car body, roaring furiously!
"Damn it!"
"It must be that pauper using underhanded tactics against me!"
"I, being the magnanimous one, let him off, and he actually stabbed me in the back!"
"I will definitely make him pay!"
Bai Xiaoyue, standing nearby, was terrified, her legs trembling, and she hid far away, not daring to approach him.
"Get over here!"
Bai Xiaoyue was shaking with fear.
But she could only slowly inch closer.
"Isn't that person your classmate? What is his name?"
Huang Sanjin said viciously.
"Ch-Ch-Chen Yang."
Bai Xiaoyue's teeth were chattering.
"I really want to teach him a lesson now. Tell me, what method can I use to achieve that?"
Huang Sanjin said sinisterly...
Tonight at the Li residence.
Laughter and cheerful noise made it exceptionally lively.
In the main hall of the living room.
A few symbolic offerings and an incense burner were placed.
Presided over by the Mayor.
Chen Yang and Li Jie knelt and kowtowed.
Officially becoming sworn brothers.
Zhang Huilan, Xu Ruoyun, Childs nickname, Han Feixue, Feng Danqing, and others witnessed the ceremony.
"Big Brother!"
"Second Brother!"
Chen Yang and Li Jie officially became non-blood related brothers.
"Clap! Clap! Clap..."
A burst of warm applause broke out.
The Mayor laughed heartily.
"Good! Prepare to serve the meal. Tonight, I intend to have several drinks!"
Zhang Huilan shot her old man a look but didn't say anything more.
She looked at Chen Yang, a kind smile appearing on her face.
It was all thanks to this child!
Otherwise, her only grandson might have been lost.
This was the sole heir of the Li family!
The lifeblood of the entire family!
Chen Yang was a great benefactor to their entire family!
Now that he had become sworn brothers with her son, they were family!
This was a great happy occasion, and they certainly should have a few drinks!
The Mayor took his seat at the dining table.
He immediately called out to Chen Yang.
"Come, Yang Zi, sit next to me."
"You are the honored guest today. I want to properly toast you several times. How can we drink if you sit so far away?"
Chen Yang quickly stood up and politely declined:
"Mayor, as a junior, how can I accept you toasting me..."
Before he could finish speaking, the Mayor interrupted him.
"Yang Zi, since you've acknowledged Li Jie as your Big Brother, how can you still call me Mayor? Shouldn't you change how you address me?"
Chen Yang rubbed his temples, feeling slightly awkward.
"Uncle Li!"
"Yes!"
The Mayor beamed and forcefully pulled Chen Yang to sit beside him.
Chen Yang still wanted to yield the seat to Li Jie.
But the Mayor vetoed it.
"He is your Big Brother, but since today is the first time you are eating at our house, we'll have to trouble your Big Brother for now."
"Starting today, I announce that you are a part of our family, the youngest child in our house, besides Childs nickname."
"Everyone must defer to you!"
"You must come often to eat and play in the future, just treat this like your own home."
"If Li Jie dares to bully you in the future, tell me directly, and I will sort him out for you!"
Li Jie wore a bitter expression!
How did I suddenly become the one bullying my Second Brother?
In the future, my position in this family is becoming increasingly precarious!
Zhang Huilan smiled and chimed in:
"That's right. I've prepared a room for you upstairs. If you eat late or drink wine, you can just stay over."
"That bedroom will be your room from now on."
At this moment.
Chen Yang was truly moved!
His eyes were slightly moist.
Under the light, they shimmered with a crystal clear sheen.
"Uncle Li, Aunt Zhang, thank you!"
Zhang Huilan smiled and waved her hand.
"Silly child, what are you thanking us for? If anyone should be thanking, it's our whole family thanking you! If it weren't for you..."
Zhang Huilan suddenly felt a wave of lingering fear.
She couldn't help but shed tears and quietly sob!
Xu Ruoyun felt the same way, and her eyes instantly turned red.
The atmosphere became a little sad.
It was the Mayor who was more carefree.
He waved his large hand.
"Honestly, what are you crying about on such a happy day?"
"Everyone, quickly take your seats! The meal is about to start!"
Everyone took their seats one after another.
Just then.
A young man, barely thirty, walked in from outside the door.
He was neatly dressed.
White shirt, black trousers, black leather shoes—still in work mode.
He greeted them as soon as he entered.
"Mayor, Aunt Zhang, Brother Li, Sister-in-law, hello everyone."
He was very familiar and easygoing.
The Mayor laughed:
"Huaizhi, you're here. Quick, take a seat. The meal is about to begin."
The young man named Huaizhi consciously sat at the end of the table.
And naturally took on the role of opening bottles and pouring wine.
Chen Yang was slightly startled.
Guessing his identity.
If he wasn't a nephew or junior relative, he must be a secretary or driver.
Secretary Wang was pouring wine when he suddenly realized something was amiss.
A strange young man, unremarkable in appearance.
Was brazenly sitting right next to the Mayor.
Outranking both Aunt Zhang and Brother Li.
He looked so young, what right did he have to this honor?
To be honest.
Secretary Wang was barely thirty and served as the Mayor's secretary.
His rank was equivalent to a Deputy County Head.
If he worked for two more years, got promoted one level, and was assigned elsewhere.
He would be a County Head.
Such an achievement was rare, not just in Jiangcheng City, but across the entire Jiangnan Province.
All along.
Secretary Wang had held himself in high regard.
He often looked down upon other young people.
Among his peers, apart from holding a sliver of reverence for Li Jie.
At other times, he was extremely arrogant.
Seeing Chen Yang sitting there so loftily.
He felt uncomfortable and very displeased!
Primarily, it was jealousy!
I don't even have such an overwhelming aura, what makes you so impressive?
What qualifications do you have? What ability do you possess?
Who the hell are you?
