Chapter 293 Grabbing Attention

I think his life will get better and better in the future.

After Xie Yuchen comforted herself, she closed her eyes and dozed off again.

The convoy drove out of the desert overnight and arrived at Zhang Ruitang's camp at eight o'clock the next morning.

Zhang Ruitang, who had received the news early, had been standing in the open space waiting anxiously. When he saw them finally coming back, he immediately welcomed everyone into the house with a respectful and gentle look.

After not seeing him for a few days, he really missed the patriarch very much.

During these hard days of being exiled to the Gobi Desert, the greatest pleasure each day was digging in the sand and walking the bird.

If there weren't a few beautiful trees swaying in the wind next to their base, which he could climb up every day to bask in the sun comfortably, he would be so idle that mushrooms would grow on his body.

He couldn't get through another day of this boring, shitty life!

Zhang Ruitang, who repeatedly requested to change to a civilian position but was ruthlessly rejected, was quietly going crazy in his heart.

The welcoming arrangements were made in advance. The first thing everyone did after getting off the bus was to take a shower in turns. Everyone felt refreshed and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhang Moyu and Jie Yuchen were relatively lucky as they didn't get covered in mud in the swamp. At most, they smelled of sweat and their outer clothes were a little dirty from the trip.

But people like Hei Xia Zi were different. They were already covered in mud and were rubbing themselves everywhere without paying attention to their image, making themselves look like savages. Although they used the spare water source to clean themselves up and changed into clean clothes before getting on the bus.

But he didn't take a proper shower, so his hair and face were still unkempt, and at most he didn't get the car dirty.

When the people who had finished cleaning came into the living room, they saw that food was already placed on the table.

When Wuxie and the others came over, Zhang Qiling and the other members of the Zhang family who had just finished washing had already finished their meal. After staying up all night, they were still sitting there in high spirits, playing with their phones and computers, and looking bored.

Zhang Ruiping looked at the three people who were above him in status. Zhang Qiling was staring out the window in a daze, Zhang Moyu was reading the news on his mobile phone, and Zhang Benling was staring at the computer and working remotely.

Well... as a capable little servant, he felt it was time to show off his superb tea-making skills!

Zhang Ruiping glanced at Zhang Haishe, who had just cleaned himself up and was competing with Wuxie, Nan Xihe and others for food, and sighed inwardly.

It turns out that young people are just not good enough. Zhang Haishe is clearly still a child. He can't even take care of himself, so how can he take care of the patriarch?

It would be better to leave such an important task of serving the patriarch to myself.

Zhang Ruiping walked briskly and happily towards the kitchen with a sense of complacency.

However, his good mood did not last for three seconds. Before he could reach the kitchen, he met Zhang Ruitang who was walking towards him in the aisle with tea in his hand.

Zhang Ruitang was holding a tray steadily and preparing to serve tea to the people in front of him. He lowered his eyes and thought for a while about what to say, when suddenly a person appeared in front of him, standing straight in front of him, and he almost bumped into him.

When he looked up, he saw Zhang Ruiping standing in front of him with an expressionless face. Their eyes met, and they both keenly sensed the same kind of feeling.

Oh, you opportunistic bitch! ×2

Sparks flew between the two men as they looked at each other. Zhang Ruiping saw that on the tray Zhang Ruitang was holding, in addition to brewed tea and upside-down teacups, there were even two plates of snacks.

One plate contains dried fruits such as hazelnuts and pine nuts, and the other plate contains preserved fruits such as candied raisins. It was obvious that they had been prepared in advance!

Zhang Ruitang had been specially trained in the clan and had served the clan leader of the "Rui" generation. Apart from anything else, his vision must be first-rate.

He had arranged for his men to stand guard there on call and go make tea when Zhang Moyu and the others had finished their meal and did not return to the house but chose to sit in the hall to rest.

Zhang Ruitang is so attentive and servile now, all for his own future.

He needs the favor of the clan leader and elders more than most of the Zhang family members.

He knew clearly that due to his experience of serving the patriarch of the "Rui" generation, other people in the clan would not dare to contact him easily even if they had a good relationship with him.

Zhang Ruitong's brilliant move had now dragged everyone in his group down to the bottom. Those who had once relied on Zhang Ruitong and who had been lucky enough to survive were an eyesore to too many people.

With anger from all sides, no one in the tribe, except the tribe leader and elders, dared to transfer him from such a torturous place.

He was not the only talented person who was exiled due to involvement. He didn't know whether others had obeyed the arrangements of the clan and accepted their fate. Anyway, he was not willing to remain silent.

Judging from the current situation, this is probably his only chance.

As long as one of the clan leader and the Mo Yu elder took a liking to him, whether it was because of his temperament and experience, or his way of dealing with people, or even simply because they liked him.

Anyway, as long as he is transferred out of this remote place, no matter where he is transferred to or what position he is in, he is confident that with his own abilities he will be able to climb up step by step and eventually shine.

Because once one of these two people speaks for him, it means that his past behavior of standing on the wrong side will be wiped out, and others can no longer use this as an issue to exclude him from the center of power.

For this reason, Zhang Ruitang was always thinking about how to make his presence felt in front of those two people.

The last time he talked with the clan leader Zhang Qiling, he revealed that he was almost entrusted with an important task, but unfortunately he was born at the wrong time, and his talent in government affairs was not appreciated by anyone.

He thought that the family was in need of people right now, and he was 70% sure that the patriarch would carefully investigate his life and behavior after returning to the family, and then nominate him.

However, he still felt that it was not safe to leave with only a 70% certainty. He still had to show his face in front of Zhang Moyu, the elder of the clan.

Zhang Ruiping naturally had no idea about Zhang Ruitang's current situation.

He only knew that there was a little goblin who followed the same path as him and wanted to replace him and become the most convenient person around the patriarch!

He absolutely cannot tolerate this!

Judging from the fragrance of the tea, the other party's tea art should be slightly worse than his. The patriarch only needs him as the exclusive tea art master, and the rest of the people had better get as far away as possible!

Zhang Ruitang wanted to bypass him to serve tea, but he moved a step to the left. Zhang Ruiping also moved a step, still blocking him, and holding the tray with his index finger, he spoke with no expression on his face.

"The clan leader is not used to this kind of tea."
