What can we say about Lao Yue? He seems carefree at ordinary times, but at the critical moment, he is willing to help Li Cheng in every possible way, and he has no problem sticking up for him.
Li Cheng loves and hates him. If it weren't for Lao Yue's deception, Li Cheng and Lao Yue could have become close brothers.
But Lao Yue is not a liar now. Not only is he not a liar, he is also very loyal to Li Cheng. Looking at Lao Yue's expectant eyes, Li Cheng said with a hard heart: "Lao Yue, let's give up this time. Let's not embarrass him."
Lao Yue was stunned, and his eyes dimmed instantly.
Li Cheng completely understood Lao Yue's feelings. It would be fine if he had never been an official, but once he had been an official, he would no longer be able to be an official in the future. That would be a completely different feeling.
It's like eating a pear; you don't know how it tastes until you've tasted it. The problem is that Lao Yue really likes pears, and Li Cheng's decision to give up would be like killing him.
Sure enough, after Old Yue came to his senses, he shouted at Li Chengjiu, "Give up? Why give up? Is it just because Xiao Shang has an uncle who is an official?"
Li Cheng roared, "Isn't this enough?"
Old Yue was speechless, thinking to himself, what a mess, he forgot that there was a relative of a high-ranking official hiding next to him.
Thinking of how Xiao Shang usually followed him timidly, Lao Yue became furious.
"If Xiao Shang becomes the section chief, I will quit the security department."
"What do you want to do? Counting money at the counter, do you have Yao Hong's patience? Going to the office, do you have my skills? Going to the credit department, do you understand the credit business? Going..."
Lao Yue couldn't bear to listen any longer, so he waved his hand and said, "Alright, alright, I'm not going anywhere. If you keep talking, I'll become a piece of trash in your eyes."
Li Cheng walked towards him, shouting as he walked, "What a waste! What a waste! How can you, Old Yue, give up on yourself? You're just a section chief, right? No, you're even a deputy. Old Xu hasn't been dismissed yet. Look at you like this. How are you going to follow me and accomplish great things in the future?"
After a flurry of outbursts, Lao Yue was forced to retreat five or six steps. After he regained his composure, he looked at Li Cheng in surprise and said, "Your temper has gotten worse lately. It's even more aggressive than the stock market."
Li Cheng glared at him, walked back to his original position, and let the whistling wind blow his hair into flames.
After being lashed out at by Li Cheng, Lao Yue no longer felt so bad. He felt that Li Cheng was right. Why bother with a deputy section chief? As long as he followed Li Cheng, he could get rich if he wanted, and he could become an official if he wanted.
Forget it, he didn't want to be an official anymore. Li Cheng himself was just a small clerk. However, Lao Yue was willing to follow this small clerk and serve him in his conquests.
"Li Cheng, Chengzi, I've figured it out. I'll let Xiao Shang handle the deputy section chief role. I'll just do my job well, just like before."
Upon hearing this, Li Cheng smiled. He turned to Lao Yue and said, "You're right. Why bother with the position of deputy section chief? Look here."
Li Cheng pointed ahead and continued, "In the future, a thirty-story building will appear here. Over there, a crowded shopping mall will appear. You said the world is becoming more and more exciting. Isn't it too narrow-minded to care about the position of deputy section chief?"
Lao Yue looked at the areas he pointed to. The one where a thirty-story building would one day be built was now a collection of low-rise buildings. And the one where a crowded shopping mall would one day be built was now a small, two-story mall.
Could this be true? If someone else said this, Lao Yue would think that person was talking nonsense, but if Li Cheng said this, Lao Yue would believe it.
"I, I want to go there, to that high-rise building with more than 30 floors, and be a security chief."
Upon hearing this, Lao Yue hit him on the back of the head. He smiled and said, "I'm just kidding. But I believe one day I'll be sitting on the top floor of that tall building, behind the big boss desk."
Li Cheng turned his head and looked at him and asked, "What are you doing sitting behind the boss's desk?"
"Look at the surveillance!"
"Go away, look at what you have done."
The two of them left the rooftop, chatting and joking.
After comforting Lao Yue, Li Cheng went to President Hou's office.
There are rumors that Governor Hou will succeed Governor Gao. However, this is just gossip, so few people have come to Vice Governor Hou to show their goodwill.
When Li Cheng reached the door, he heard some movement in Vice President Hou's office. He did not stop, but walked straight ahead.
Not long after he walked over, he heard the door of Vice President Hou's office open, followed by the sound of two people talking.
"President Hou, please stay. I'm leaving now------"
It was Yan Hua's voice. Li Cheng didn't turn around, but slowed down his pace. After a while, Yan Hua came over.
"You wanted to visit the new president, but you didn't go in when you heard someone was inside."
Li Cheng deliberately didn't look at her, and looked ahead and said, "Sister, I'm not as well-informed as you are. I came to visit the new president so early."
Yan Hua smiled and said, "How could I have the leisure to come and visit the new president? I just found out she's going to be promoted."
Li Cheng paused and asked, "So, she told you herself?"
Yan Hua nodded and continued walking forward. When they reached the elevator, they both stared at the door without saying a word.
Li Cheng reached out and pressed the down button, then turned around and walked back-----
Yan Hua smiled. At this time, the elevator came and Yan Hua got in.
Li Cheng hesitated in front of Vice President Hou's office, then knocked on the door twice.
"Come in." There was a hint of pleasure in Vice President Hou's voice.
Li Cheng pushed the door open and walked in. Vice President Hou saw him and said with a smile, "What can I do for you?"
Li Cheng turned around and closed the door, then turned around and said, "I'm here to congratulate President Hou. I heard that you're going to succeed President Gao, and I was very happy to hear that. So, I came to see you and see if you need anything."
When Li Cheng said these words, he kept saying in his heart that a real man can bend and stretch, and bow his head temporarily in order to hold his head high in the future.
Ever since the last anonymous letter incident, Li Cheng has had no good feelings towards Vice President Hou.
Although Vice President Hou ate roast duck and enjoyed the room service for a few days, Meng Jianghong later took Vice President Hou to experience the fashion trends at Li Cheng's instruction. Although her prejudice towards Li Cheng changed a lot, Li Cheng still didn't like her.
First impressions are incredibly important. If they're not good, it takes a lot of effort to change them.
Li Cheng is in this situation now. Although the anonymous letter incident is over, there is still a gap between the two of them, a deep gap.
Li Cheng wanted to reduce the gap, but he had no intention of eliminating it completely because he knew that it was not easy to change the opinion of a paranoid woman.
