Might of the Government, Transforming Jin and Presence
Not even an hour after Wang Chao had left Zhu Jia’s house, Wang Chao’s phone began to get a call from Cao Yi.
Before the two were to meet up at a coffee shop, Wang Chao had given a call to several of his company’s business officers to come over as well.
“What? A hundred thousand business deal? Maintaining the government’s online projects?” After taking Wang Chao’s phone call, Yao Xiaoxue had nearly jumped out of her skin. After ensuring that she hadn’t heard things wrong, she and the other 3 females immediately hopped on a car to C city.
“This is the public safety bureau chief, Cao Yi. Chief Cao, these are my friends, please explain the situation to them.” Once in the cafe, Wang Chao had introduced Yao Xiaoxue to Cao Yi. “My business is relied on these people, all of the finer details are managed by them.”
After the two sides were introduced, Yao Xiaoxue and the three other female had transformed to be worthy of being called university students of the new age. The very instant they had heard of Cao Yi’s status, their eyes began to shine as they began to call him uncle this and uncle that as if bewitched.
Cao Yi had only smiled with a calm expression before recounting the situation, “This is how things are right now. Three of the regional government projects are currently being bidded for. You will compete as well. This afternoon, we will be having a celebrational convention to celebrate the conclusion of our drug ring case. Many influential men will be here, including municipal secretary Zhu. You all will come along, and Wang Chao will make contact with Zhu Jia. It would be for the best if Wang Chao says a few words to Zhu Tianlang; then, the government projects will be given to you with no problems.”
“So that’s the plan.” Wang Chao had instantly understood Cao Yi’s meaning. To pull in Zhu Jia to grab Zhu Tianlang was akin to the fox making use of the tiger’s might. If speaking to one of the regional leaders, all one would need to do is to state their intentions covertly, and the business of the government would come easily.
“Alright then. This celebration will be taking place at 3 PM at the 28th floor of the Shennong Hotel. at that time, you will invite Zhu Jia to go. Take some pictures with her as her bodyguard. This will be of merit to you and she will definitely thank you. I still need to head back and arrange a few things. Whether or not this works out for you, it is up to you now.”
With that, Cao Yi walked out of the coffee shop and into his own car.
“This situation is pretty complicated. Interpersonal relationships are quite troublesome! How do people not get dizzy from this?” Knowing what Cao Yi had meant, Wang Chao felt that his own personal worth had gone up by quite an amount.
He was by nature a person who wasn’t very sociable. It was only after learning martial arts under Tang Zichen that he had grown in confidence. But still, in his heart, he still did not find pleasure in talking to others,
If it was possible, Wang Chao wished to permanently soak into the world of Chinese boxing. He wanted to go back to the time where sis Chen was teaching him without a care in the world.
But that was out of the question now. Since ancient times, even martial arts wasn’t enough to bring about wealth. If he had neither wealth or fame, then he would never be able to head outside of China to search for sis Chen.
“Chairman, this will spell out life or death for our company, so we will be relying on you.” Yao Xiaoxue and the other three looked at Wang Chao.
“Rely on me!” Wang Chao widened his eyes. “In a moment I’ll be relying on you! Dealing with those leaders and bosses, you have to be careful so that you won’t be taken advantage of, so don’t blame me.”
“You don’t have to worry, chairman!” The four females answered at the same time. “The person who will lead to success will come. You should go ahead and give a call to the niece of the municipal secretary!”
The day Zhu Jia had killed a person, her heart had been fluctuating wildly and given out her phone number in that moment.
After thinking about it, Wang Chao had no other choice. Picking up his phone, he was about to dial in Zhu Jia’s phone number when it began to ring automatically. Picking it up, he heard Zhu Jia’s voice.
“Hello, is this Wang Chao?”
“It’s me.”
“It’s Zhu Jia. There’s going to be a celebration at the Shennong Hotel today. I wanted to thank you for yesterday so….how about you and I go together?”
Wang Chao let out a breath in relief before replying.
“Where are you right now?” Zhu Jia asked.
“The coffee shop right outside the public safety bureau.”
“Good, then I’ll come over straight away.” With that, she quickly hung up. Not even a moment too late, she came walking out of a taxi and into the coffee shop. The moment when he saw Wang Chao with four other females, she couldn’t help but be surprised.
“These are the managers of my company, we are planning to bid on some of the government projects.” Wang Chao introduced her to them quickly.
“Your company?” Zhu Jia looked at the four females with doubt.
“Ah, so this is sister Zhu!” Yao Xiaoxue already knew of Zhu Jia’s history and immediately hit it off with her.
Three of the females were already making more noise than a hundred ducks, but now there were five!
As Yao Xiaoxue and Zhu Jia continued to talk, Wang Chao had been unable to interject or even wanted to. Instead, he chose to sit there and rest with his eyes closed.
Not too long later, Wang Chao had noticed something strange happening. While Zhu Jia and Yao Xiaoxue chatted amongst each other, they would occasionally look over at him. But whenever he and their eyes met, they would quickly avert their gaze away.
Wang Chao hadn’t been able to understand at all. “Is there something wrong with my face? Was it because of yesterday? But I didn’t notice anything yesterday, so did something happen while we were chatting? Why can’t I figure them out?” Wang Chao couldn’t understand at all.
3 PM quickly came by, forcing the group of 6 to head towards the five-star Shennong Hotel.
Upon reaching the hotel, they were instantly stopped by the personnel at the door. Because of the celebrational convention, bystanders were not allowed entry. But with a few words and a flash of her identity from Zhu Jia, they were all allowed entry. Zhu Jia was a public figure and news anchor, even the personnel there knew of her.
Reaching the 28th floor, there was a huge conference room. On the right side, there was a huge dazzling sight with plenty of people chatting to each other. The vast majority of the men were all officials with a beer belly.
The moment when the officials saw Zhu Jia, their eyes all lit up and began to cry out in greeting. At the same time, they began to take notice of Wang Chao, Yao Xiaoxue and the others while trying to figure out their identities.
Cao Yi and several other leading members of the public safety bureau could be seen amongst the clamor, but Wang Chao was definitely not used to such an environment.
“Secretary Zhu has arrived!” An unknown voice called out, bringing the room into an uproar almost instantly. Wang Chao craned his head to take a look at the source of the noise, only to see the impressive figure of a middle aged man accompanied by several other men.
This was the secretary who held the entire C City in his hands and was Zhu Jia’s uncle Zhu Tianlang.
When Zhu Tianlang entered the room, he nodded his head with a smile. Almost instantaneously, the noise in the room had stopped as if an unknown energy had blocked everyone’s throats.
“The might of the government, this is the might of the government.” Although he had seen the secretary on TV before, meeting him in person was a completely different feeling. Wang Chao could feel an incredibly powerful energy coming from him.
“If this is the power of a municipal committee secretary, then what about the provincial party, prime minister, or even the premier of the nation? Power and authority, surely these two go hand in hand.” Wang Chao thought. “Sis Chen had said in her A True Record of Guoshu, when a person’s martial art has reached the Transforming Jin stage, they have a method of attack called Presence. Without needing to move their hands, they can use their eyes to intimidate their enemies. I didn’t believe it, but now that I see it, it is undoubtedly true…”
