Chapter 60: No Reserve



After Chen Dongsheng had a meeting with several team leaders in the workshop, he went to the transportation team.

He was originally planning to go to Chen Chong's house after get off work, but there were people coming and going in the factory, so it wasn't a good time to talk about these things.

But his daughter was anxious, and he also wanted to go and see Han Zhenyu in person to see if he was really as reliable as his wife and daughter said.

Li Chong had just finished a meeting with his subordinates and was sitting in the office with his teacup in his hand when he heard a knock on the door.

"Come in."

"Director Li, I'm busy." Chen Dongsheng walked over and asked with a smile.

"Oh, it's Director Chen. Please take a seat."

Li Chong quickly put down the teacup, asked him to sit down next to him, and made him another cup of tea before sitting opposite him and asked with a smile:

"Director Chen, how come you, a busy man, have time to come here today? Do you have any instructions?"

Chen Dongsheng smiled and shook his head, "Old Li, you are such a talker that I don't know how to deal with you."

Li Chong laughed and motioned Chen Dongsheng to drink some water.

He saw Chen Dongsheng's wife and Han Zhenyu talking outside yesterday afternoon.

In addition, some time ago, Chen Dongsheng came to him to inquire about Han Zhenyu.

So when he walked in, Li Chong roughly guessed the purpose of his visit.

But the person involved didn't say it clearly, and Li Chong didn't know how to ask, so he just sat there and smiled and practiced Tai Chi with him.

The two chatted about this and that for a while before Chen Dongsheng got to the point.

"Old Li, to be honest, I do have something to trouble you with today."

Li Chong nodded and said, "Director Chen, you said that as long as I can do it, I will do it without hesitation."

Seeing that he agreed so readily, Chen Dongsheng smiled and said, "Old Li, I just found out some time ago that my daughter and your subordinate Han Zhenyu are dating."

Li Chong pretended to be surprised and said, "Really? That guy is really good at keeping secrets. I haven't even heard him say it." Then he praised Han Zhenyu a lot.

"Old Chen, I'm not exaggerating. Zhenyu is very handsome, and his character and ability are impeccable. Although his family is from the countryside, he will be officially registered soon, right? He will also have a city hukou in the future."

After saying that, he gave Chen Dongsheng a thumbs up and praised him, "Old Chen, your daughter has good taste. She has won over such an outstanding young man. You can just wait for your son-in-law to be filial to you in the future."

Chen Dongsheng said with a smile: "I won't interfere in the children's affairs, as long as they are willing."

"That's right, everyone is free to fall in love now. As long as they like it, all we have to do is give our blessings as elders." Li Chong agreed.

The two talked a few more words about their views on freedom of love, and then Chen Dongsheng told them the purpose of their visit.

"You two are not young anymore, and have known each other for more than half a year. I came here today to ask you to be a matchmaker."

Li Chong was a little surprised. He thought Chen Dongsheng came to him to test the waters, but he didn't expect that he wanted him to be a matchmaker.

Chen Dongsheng's family conditions are quite good in the machinery factory.

It's a dual-income family, and the daughter is also a regular employee in a machinery factory.

The conditions are not bad. As the girl's parents, they should be more reserved, not arrogant. Why are they more anxious than the boy?

He didn't know how long Han Zhenyu had been dating Director Chen's daughter.

But thinking that the girl's family has taken the initiative to bring up this matter, it should be time for the two of them to talk about marriage.

Although he thought that in this matter, the man should take the initiative.

But then he thought, if no one else had any objections, he would be even less likely to say anything.

So Chen Chong was happy to be the ready-made matchmaker.

Just as he was about to agree, an idea suddenly flashed through his mind.

Could it be that Han Zhenyu and Chen Dongsheng's daughter have already had a substantial relationship? Or is she pregnant?

But then he shook his head. Based on his understanding of Han Zhenyu, he would not do such a shameful thing.

Although Li Chong was somewhat confused, he did not say much.

He first said a few words of congratulations, then smiled and said, "This is a good thing. I am very happy to be a matchmaker for the two children."

Seeing that he agreed, Chen Dongsheng said with a smile, "Then I'll trouble Lao Li. Once the matter between the two is settled, I'll ask them to send you a big fish to eat."

"That's great. I'm looking forward to it." Li Chong looked at his smiling face and knew that he was very satisfied with Han Zhenyu as his son-in-law.

Since I have accepted the job of matchmaker, I decided to make this happen as soon as possible so that both parties can have a good deal.

He said, "Zhenyu returned home after his business trip yesterday. He should come to the factory today to complete the formalities for becoming a regular employee. I will talk to him when he arrives."

Chen Dongsheng was originally planning to meet his future son-in-law, but when he heard that he was not there, he stood up with a smile.

"Brother, you are busy. I will go back first. When we have a break, I will ask your sister-in-law to cook two meat dishes, and we can have a few drinks together."

"Okay." Li Chong walked him to the door and said mysteriously, "My brother-in-law gave me a bottle of Moutai during the Chinese New Year. Let's take it over and try it."

"Okay." Chen Dongsheng left Li Chong's office without losing the smile on his face.

I walked to the parking lot of the transport team, where I met a tall and thin young man with outstanding temperament.

Chen Dongsheng looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him.

The driver of the truck next to him leaned out of his car and greeted the young man, "Zhenyu, I heard that you are getting a permanent job. Congratulations."

"Thank you, Brother Xu." Han Zhenyu took out a pack of cigarettes from his shirt pocket and gave one to him.

After the two of them had talked, Chen Dongsheng walked up to Han Zhenyu, looked him up and down, and asked, "Are you Han Zhenyu?"

Han Zhenyu knew that he was the director of a workshop. He had met him in the warehouse a few months ago and the two had exchanged greetings at that time.

It seems that Director Chen has no impression at all. He must have forgotten it.

He did not mention that incident, but just smiled and nodded, handed him a cigarette, and introduced himself again, "Hello, Director Chen, I am Han Zhenyu."

When Chen Dongsheng heard him call him director, he thought his daughter had told this boy about the situation at home.

He took the cigarette he was handed over and nodded in approval, thinking that his daughter had pretty good taste.

Although Chen Dongsheng was satisfied, he still decided to show his authority as a father-in-law.

He nodded in a very high-handed manner and said, "Come to my house when you have time. We have known each other for quite some time, so I should definitely go to my house to get to know the family."

Han Zhenyu was very surprised when he heard his invitation. How come he became so familiar with him that he even recognized his home after only meeting him once a few months ago?

And the expression on Director Chen's face is so arrogant, it doesn't seem like he's inviting someone to his home, right?

But he didn't say this, nor did he show any emotion on his face. He just smiled and nodded, and said very politely:

"I will definitely visit you when I have time and learn about the Party's ideology from Director Chen."

Seeing his good attitude, Chen Dongsheng felt even more satisfied. He nodded to the two of them, then left the transport team with his hands behind his back.

Xu Haifeng thought the two knew each other well, so after Chen Dongsheng walked away, he asked with a smile, "Are you familiar with Director Chen from Workshop 1?"

Han Zhenyu shook his head and said matter-of-factly, "We only met once a few months ago, and we didn't even talk to each other."
