Chapter 104: Getting Busy

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

When the meeting ended, Xu Wenping and Li Zhengkang got into the same car. Li Zhengkang smiled and said, “Your speech on the stage was very good! The words were simple and the meaning was shocking. It’s in high spirits! You’re really a role model for the good young people of this era!”

“Brother Li, please don’t say that.” Xu Wenping smiled bitterly. “I had stage fright at that time, so I just casually said a few words.”

Li Zhengkang looked suspicious and said strangely, “Didn’t you see the script I put under the microphone?”

Xu Wenping was slightly stunned.

Li Zhengkang laughed and said, “But this is also a good thing. The meeting itself is long and smelly. I’m not satisfied with this. Starting with you, I can make the future speeches shorter!”

At this moment, Xu Wenping’s phone suddenly rang.

Seeing this phone number that had not been contacted for a long time, Xu Wenping opened his eyes slightly. Li Zhengkang smiled and said, “Answer it! Answer it!”

This was a relative who hadn’t contacted him for a long time. The moment he called, he started to ask about his well-being and then congratulated him on becoming an Outstanding Youth.

Xu Wenping had just hung up when his phone rang again…

Xu Wenping was stunned for a moment. He saw several calls in a row, and they were all notifications in the background. Li Zhengkang raised his eyebrows and said, “Is it because people are popular and cause trouble?”

Xu Wenping’s face flushed red.

“You’re a public figure now. You have to get used to this kind of thing in the future. Although I also want to hide you, I can hide you for a while, but I can’t hide you forever. You have to take the initiative to be the leader and change some bad habits!”

“The stronger you are, the more you should be brave enough to bear the burden!”

Xu Wenping could only laugh bitterly.

“I’ll help you with this outstanding young man,” Li Zhengkang continued. “But there’s something else 1 want you to discuss.”

“What?”

“We are still members of the Standing Committee of the People’s Congress, and we still have the position of deputy director.”

“Don’t!”

Hearing this, Xu Wenping quickly waved his hand and refused, saying, “Brother Li, I almost missed the Outstanding Youth Commending Ceremony.

Do you think I’m the kind of person who can hold a meeting? Don’t use this kind of thing…”

“Understood!”

Li Zhengkang didn’t understand Xu Wenping’s words, so he nodded and said, “This is a matter that I will discuss with the province. The decision is yours. If you don’t want to take up this position, it can be used to benefit other civil servants who have contributed.”

“This time, I took advantage of you… After thinking about it…”

Li Zhengkang took out a black plastic bag. There were two long strips inside. When he handed it over, Xu Wenping was surprised. When he opened it and saw two sticks of Golden River cigarettes inside, Xu Wenping smiled.

“Then thank you, Brother Li. 1’11 return the favor!”

Xu Wenping also heaved a sigh of relief. In fact, Li Zhengkang’s gratitude was more practical than anything else. These two cigarettes were more fragrant than the others.

When Li Zhengkang reached home, he smiled and said, “Then I won’t disturb you, an outstanding young man, to deal with things. You didn’t drive, so let the driver send you back. We’ll have dinner together when we’re free!”

Xu Wenping nodded in agreement.

At this moment, the phone was still ringing non-stop. Why didn’t he feel that he had such good relationships in the past?

Xu Wenping did not answer the calls and hung up one by one. However, when he saw his teacher’s call, Xu Wenping was slightly stunned. A trace of warmth appeared in his eyes and he answered the call.

“Teacher!”

Xu Wenping had been in school for a long time, so he naturally had many teachers. The others all had surnames attached to the term ‘teacher’. Only this person, a professor at the business school and the director of the Academic Department, was treated sincerely by him.

“Wenping! Congratulations!”

Xu Wenping chuckled. “I was just lucky. Teacher, why did you call me personally?”

“Hahaha! You’ve already become an outstanding young man in the province with your little degree. Shouldn’t I, this old fellow, be thick-skinned and come over to socialize with you?”

Xu Wenping’s face turned red. “Teacher, please don’t make fun of me. I was just lucky.”

“Yes… It’s good that you’re not arrogant or impatient!”

This professor was already over 60 years old. In Xu Wenping’s mind, his teacher was like a monk who swept the floor. During a business guidance class on stock trading, he entered a state of loss. The teacher only needed three words to make him turn losses into profits.

If this old man really brought money into the market, Xu Wenping felt that he must be an assassin.

However, the teacher said that it was precisely because he stood on the sidelines that he could see the whole picture. Once he attacked with a sword, the teacher would also be a layman.

With this realm, it was impossible not to admire him!

The teacher replied softly and then said, “Actually, 1 didn’t want to call you. But I couldn’t stand the pressure from the school. Tomorrow is our school’s anniversary celebration. The school plans to invite you over. As an outstanding schoolmate of the year, you can give a speech at the anniversary celebration and share your thoughts.”

“They also want to hire you to work in our school.”

“In short, these things… Just do it according to your situation and strength. Do you understand what I mean?”

The teacher was still thinking about Xu Wenping.

After all, he had seen too many waves and knew that there might be too much pressure hidden under the surface. The others could only see the bright and beautiful scenery, but the teacher was worried about the pressure behind Xu Wenping.

Feeling touched, Xu Wenping said softly, “Don’t worry, Teacher. It’s indeed a coincidence that I’m able to reach my current level. However, I do have some strength.”

“Of course I have to repay my alma mater!”

“Teacher, I want to donate loo million yuan to the school through you, as well as a library and a complete set of upgrades to the school cafeteria… Everything is good in our school, but the food in the cafeteria is not good!”

The teacher on the other side was slightly stunned.

“Alright. Are you doing within your means?”

“Don’t worry, Teacher!”

“Alright, I’ll tell the school. I hope you can attend the school anniversary celebration as scheduled. As for whether you will be in the school, you can talk to the principal yourself!”

“Yes, Teacher!”

Xu Wenping respectfully hung up the phone and immediately called Jiang Yueming to arrange the donation to his alma mater. Then, he started to feel conflicted. Although he had agreed, Xu Wenping was indeed not talented in giving speeches.

Therefore, he asked Jiang Yueming to help him prepare a few more speeches. He only had a meeting all day, but Xu Wenping was more tired than he had been working all day. He went home and lay down to rest.

The two elders in the family had also heard the news that Xu Wenping had become an Outstanding Youth. They wanted to rush over to report the good news. Seeing Xu Wenping lying on the bed tiredly, his mother smiled and gently covered her son with a blanket.

At this moment, Su Yurou was busy in the factory. When she saw the broadcast on the television, she was also quite proud.

Look, my man!
