"Zi'an, wait a moment, I'll call Brother Wang."
Seeing Director Zhao shaking his phone with a beaming smile, Qin Zian shook his head helplessly.
He had just spoken with Wang Jianye on the phone to report that he was going to Yuzhou for an inspection overnight.
Wang Jianye's face was extremely ugly, but he still nodded in agreement.
After all, he set the requirement of having a million followers.
If he were to go back on his word now, it would make him appear as a liar.
Before Qin Zian had even left Bingcheng, Wang Jianye began to give him countless instructions.
After much persuasion, Qin Zian finally managed to calm Wang Jianye's anxious heart down a little.
Once Director Zhao makes that call, Wang Jianye's side... is probably in for some turmoil again.
Just then, Director Zhao got through to Wang Jianye on the phone.
"Brother Wang, Zi'an and I have arrived at the airport and are heading back to Yuzhou tonight. Don't worry, my Zi'an..."
"What do you mean 'your family'? Don't you know the rules? Even if the Heavenly King himself came, Zian would still be from our Ice City."
Wang Jianye glared at Director Zhao with a gloomy expression, his face clearly showing his displeasure.
Ever since receiving the news that the Yuzhou Culture and Tourism Bureau had surpassed one million followers, Wang Jianye has been restless.
He never imagined that Director Zhao would make such a huge sacrifice in order to get Qin Zian to go to Yuzhou.
Regarding the video of "Flowers Blooming and Wealth Abounding" that Director Zhao filmed...
Director Zhao dared to take the photos, and the Yuzhou Culture and Tourism Bureau dared to publish them; even Wang Jianye was embarrassed to look at them.
Wang Jianye also saw the difficulties Director Zhao had faced and learned about the hardships the Yuzhou Culture and Tourism Bureau had endured to achieve such popularity.
They had finally managed to accept Qin Zian's request to go to Yuzhou for an inspection, but Director Zhao, that old sixth brother, actually called to brag.
This really infuriated Wang Jianye; he felt he had to curse him out.
Director Zhao wasn't annoyed at all; he was enveloped in joy.
Seeing this, Wang Jianye sighed helplessly, and his tone softened.
"Zi'an! Didn't I tell you to come over for a meal before you left? We've prepared dumplings for you before you leave, and noodles for you after you get off the train. Your sister-in-law has been working tirelessly all night..."
"Brother Wang, don't let your wife do all that work!"
Director Zhao, carrying a plastic bag, waved it at the camera, looking incredibly smug.
"I've already had dumplings bought. When we arrive in Yuzhou, there will be hot noodles waiting for Zian. Don't worry! Zian is one of our own from Yuzhou, so we'll definitely pamper him."
Compared to Director Zhao's beaming smile, Wang Jianye's heart was already pounding with anxiety.
Wang Jianye tried to speak to Qin Zi'an several times, but Director Zhao interrupted him each time.
Even with the camera, he could only catch a fleeting glimpse of Qin Zi'an; the entire screen was completely covered by Director Zhao's large face.
Wang Jianye was about to say something when he was interrupted by Director Zhao's excited voice.
"Brother Wang, we're about to board the plane. We'll talk to you later."
"Zi'an, bow..."
Before Wang Jianye could even finish saying goodbye, Director Zhao had already hung up the phone.
This infuriated Wang Jianye, who slammed his fist onto the sofa.
Madam Wang came running at the sound, a rolling pin in her hand, and asked anxiously.
"What's wrong? What's wrong? Is Zian coming over? I can start cooking these dumplings."
"Stop bothering, they're already at the airport," Wang Jianye said irritably.
Seeing this, Madam Wang also showed a regretful expression.
She had long wanted to meet Qin Zi'an, but had never found the opportunity.
Upon hearing that Qin Zian was coming to their house for dinner, Madam Wang immediately got up and made dumplings for him that very night.
But unexpectedly, she was kidnapped at the last minute.
Madam Wang sighed helplessly and was about to leave when Wang Jianye called her back.
"Have you found a suitable blind date for Zi'an that I asked you to do before? This is not something to be taken lightly!"
"It's not decided yet, but I already have several candidates in mind. In my opinion, Old Wang's daughter next door is quite good!"
Wang Jianye raised an eyebrow and asked in confusion, "Who?"
"Wang Gang, she's really great! She also works in social media, so she and Zi'an definitely have things to talk about, and she has hundreds of thousands of followers."
Wang Jianye was completely bewildered by what Madam Wang said.
"Wang Gang? That name sounds...so much like a boy's name! Are you sure you're not mistaken?"
“Who says only boys can be named Wang Gang?” Madam Wang glanced at Wang Jianye with disdain and continued, “You have no idea how popular Xiao Gang is online. Netizens have said that ‘Northern coarse grains and Southern fine chaff are not as good as Northeastern Wang Gang.’”
Wang Jianye initially thought Wang Gang was unreliable, but after hearing Madam Wang's introduction... he seemed quite presentable.
The young girl is beautiful, capable, and has an incredibly sweet voice.
Wang Jianye nodded, acknowledging Madam Wang's choice.
But no matter what, the most important thing is that Qin Zian likes it.
"Then you should talk to the girl and arrange a blind date for the two of them when Zian comes back."
Only after realizing that the matter of arranging a blind date for Qin Zian was settled did Wang Jianye's anxious heart finally settle down a little.
With this thought in mind, he believed that Qin Zian would soon return to Bingcheng.
Wang Jianye immediately sent the girl's photo and information to Qin Zian.
Qin Zian hadn't even left Bingcheng yet, but Wang Jianye was already trying every possible means to lure him back.
...
The following day, in the afternoon.
After a good night's sleep, Qin Zian arrived at the Yuzhou Culture and Tourism Bureau.
When he saw the bustling crowd and the enormous welcome banner...
Qin Zian sighed helplessly, feeling that the scale of the operation was simply too large.
When the staff of Yuzhou Culture and Tourism Bureau saw Qin Zi'an walking over, they swarmed around him and surrounded him.
"Director Qin, welcome to the Yuzhou Culture and Tourism Bureau!!! We were so excited after hearing the news yesterday that we couldn't sleep all night. We've finally been waiting for you."
"I used to see Director Qin online all the time, and now I can finally meet him in person. I didn't expect that Director Qin would be even more handsome and imposing in person than in the videos."
"Brother Zian, I've been your fan for ten years, and I even attended your offline event before!!! Let's go on a site visit to Laojun Mountain later. We're all ready and waiting for your arrival."
"Who hasn't been a fan for ten years? Why should we go to Lao Jun Mountain first? Brother Zi'an, come back to Yuntai Mountain with us. We've already followed your advice and made the necessary changes, and we're just waiting for your approval."
"Nonsense! What do you take Director Qin for? Do you think they'll follow you just because you call him 'Brother An' a couple of times? Director Qin, come with us to admire the peonies first. A group of stunningly beautiful ladies in ancient costumes are already waiting."
