Yan Wu and Yun Hao and the others got out of the car and walked into the courtyard.
Tables and tableware had already been set out in the courtyard, clearly indicating that someone had made arrangements in advance.
Zhang Qi's assistant, Xiao Bi, went in to order food, and the group sat in the courtyard waiting.
Looking at the villa surrounded by greenery, Yan Wu couldn't help but exclaim, "What a wonderful place!"
Zhang Qi looked proud. "These were all left behind by people in the past. They were able to build so many beautiful buildings back then, so there's no reason why we can't build them too."
So, I'm so glad you came, Comrade Yan! You're young, and you know more than we do. The future of Haishi depends on you all.”
Yan Wu smiled and waved his hand, "You flatter me. I am not knowledgeable enough and am not as experienced as Director Zhang and others. I still need your help!"
Zhang Qi laughed heartily, “No problem, Comrade Yan, you can come to me with anything. I’m not the kind of person who likes to sit on the sidelines and watch the show; I prefer to get things done myself.”
"You tell me what to do, and I'll do it. If things get better as a result, then I'll be satisfied."
Yan Wu gave him an admiring look, "Having a leader like you is a blessing for the people of Haishi and a good fortune for us all. I'd like to toast you on behalf of everyone!"
"Haha, okay! I'll drink this one!"
Then the dishes were served, and the group toasted each other, creating a very harmonious atmosphere.
During the conversation, Zhang Qi casually mentioned some of the private matters in Haishi from before, subtly alluding to Zhu Bin.
Yan Wu just smiled and didn't reply, pretending not to understand what he was saying.
Several punches landed on cotton, and Zhang Qi sensed Yan Wu's attitude, secretly resenting him. This kid was really hard to deal with.
He's made himself perfectly clear, yet he's still pretending not to understand, like a slippery eel—so annoying!
But he didn't show any impatience on his face, and remained as gentle and warm as ever.
Both Yan Wu and Yun Hao couldn't help but sigh inwardly at how good this person was at pretending.
Soon, the meal was finished, and Yan Wu lay back in his chair to digest. "Director Zhang, this place is really nice, the scenery is beautiful, and the food is delicious! Thank you so much for your hospitality today."
Zhang Qi smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "I'm glad you like it. We'll come again next time."
"Sure! You can decide the time and place, just call me anytime."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Qi's eyes lit up. Was Yan Wu planning to accept his advances?
But he certainly wasn't fully planning to partner with me; he wanted to wait and see for a while.
But he was confident that Yan Wu would ultimately choose him as his partner!
After all, compared to that power-hungry idiot, one feels much better, doesn't one?
From the very beginning, Zhang Qi had no intention of going against Yan Wu. After all, Yan Wu was sent from the capital, so how could he be thwarted by local obstacles?
Ultimately, it's just a temporary separation; in the end, it's still up to them to make the decisions!
Clearly, Zhu Bin's spoiled grandson was still basking in his grandfather's shadow and hadn't woken up yet.
Look at the time! If he still isn't awake, then don't blame him for being ruthless.
This time, he will definitely win!
The thought of finally defeating Zhu Bin, who had suppressed him for so many years, made Zhang Qi's eyes flash with excitement...
