Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 1427: Chapter 838: In Peril Without Knowing It (3)

"Secretary Liang..." Li Zejun grew more serious, "Compared to you, I’m just a junior, not qualified to speak out in front of you."

At this point, he deliberately paused, and Liang Jiahe quickly waved his hand in denial: "Not at all, not at all, we’re all Mayor Luo’s helpers now, we’re the same."

Liang Jiahe’s posture was so modest that it made Li Zejun hesitate, suddenly realizing that if Jiao Zuoting had no backing, the secretary position in Qin Mountain Town wouldn’t fall to him.

Compared to Liang Jiahe, Jiao Zuoting is typical of someone who can reach but not bend, whereas the more flexible people like Liang Jiahe are those you must pay attention to.

These people, when they aren’t successful, will remain dormant and may strike unexpectedly, catching you off guard.

"Secretary Liang, since you’ve put it that way, I won’t hide anything. If I say something inappropriate, please don’t get angry."

Liang Jiahe immediately waved his hand: "Not angry, not angry, Kunzi, go ahead and speak."

"I’ve mentioned before, regarding my promotion, most people might think I got lucky, but regardless, now that I’m in this position, I should take responsibility."

"The reason Secretary Liang stands by Mayor Luo, I believe not many people are unaware. From now on, our fortunes are tied to Mayor Luo’s."

"So, I hope that, regardless of how dissatisfied you might be with me, it won’t affect our work. If you really can’t let it go, you can hit me, but please don’t let it influence our work."

Liang Jiahe was stunned for a while, the smile he wore on his face slowly faded, and his gaze towards Li Zejun became much more serious. After a while, he nodded: "You’re authentic, really straightforward! No wonder Mayor Luo likes you and pulls you in."

"Working with you actually makes things easier, rest assured, I’m a man, my word is my bond, whatever I’ve promised in front of Mayor Luo will definitely be kept."

"Alright, happy cooperation!"

"Happy cooperation!"

No matter how genuine their emotions were, their large hands were tightly clasped together,

Almost at the same time, Luo Feng finally, led by Ying Nuo, reached the parking spot — which was a ten-minute walk from the town office building!

Looking at the back of the black SUV loaded with various items, Luo Feng rubbed his forehead: "Nuonuo, can you explain this?"

"Oh, these things?" Ying Nuo nonchalantly waved her little hand, "Most of these items were bought by me in Yanshan County, mainly worried that you might not find good food here."

Luo Feng sifted through the heaps of items: "Even if it’s hard to find, potatoes are always available, right? And this cabbage, this vermicelli, this pork, this..."

"Hehe..." Ying Nuo scratched her head embarrassedly, "I just heard this place is poor, wasn’t sure what they have, so I thought I’d buy a little bit of everything from the supermarket."

"With the cold weather now, these vegetables and pork won’t spoil, and there’s also frozen dumplings, frozen rice balls, frozen meatballs, frozen shrimps — all foods that can be stored and eaten slowly."

"Oh, I think, with such cold weather here, letting things spoil isn’t that easy; moreover, if you get tired of it, you can share with the neighbors."

"Like that old granny, she definitely likes people giving her food. It’s such a hassle to shop in the winter, am I right?"

"By the way, doesn’t the old granny have any children? Isn’t anyone taking care of her? I wonder, could she be the widow of a war hero?"

This person’s thoughts really leap, talking about food first, then she focuses on the old granny’s background.

Luo Feng helped her adjust her scarf: "The old granny has a daughter who married into a neighboring village, and after her husband passed away the year before last, she’s been living alone, nothing as legendary as you think."

"Oh..." Ying Nuo thought for a moment, couldn’t help but ask again, "Usually, with only one daughter, wouldn’t they require the man to marry into the family?"

"The granny’s son-in-law also has only one son in his family, do you think he would marry in?" Luo Feng said as he helped her into the car, "Okay, drive the car over, lucky you thought of parking so far away, not feeling tired."

"I just thought of giving you a surprise; if I parked closer, once people gathered around, you’d definitely spot me." Ying Nuo said, shaking her head in disappointment, "Unfortunately, even this way, there was a surprise but no joy in your expression, quite disappointing!"

"You’re just finding faults." Luo Feng didn’t explain further to her, started the car, and was about to turn right when he noticed in the rear-view mirror an identical car appearing, "Ye’er and Zhu Hongyu must be back." Luo Feng said, pushing open the car door, Ying Nuo followed, "Didn’t you say she won’t be back until tomorrow morning?"
