Reborn 92's Business Tycoon

Chapter 368: I want to be an official

Everyone could tell that the man surnamed Xie was definitely one of Zheng Jiayi's uninterested suitors.

'Your alumnus, his family also works in the government, right?' Feng Yiping asked.

'Yes, his father works in the Trade and Industry Bureau and seems to be in charge of business registration, his mother works in the Personnel Bureau, and his grandfather's family and my grandfather's family used to be neighbours.'

In charge of business registration? Then he is at least a director with real power in his hands.

Now, if business registration is to go smoothly, it may go very smoothly, but if not, the various twists and difficulties involved would take more than three days to talk about.

Moreover, as someone with real power in the bureau, it is only natural that he would befriend one or two department heads with enforcement powers. No wonder Xie Ding'an would be so overbearing when he arrived at these business establishments.

'No wonder, it's just like the childhood sweethearts in the story,' Feng Yiping changed the subject.

'What? I've made it clear several times, but he still does it,'

'No wonder he wants to have dinner with you so badly! Speaking of which, I'm really glad to have a classmate like you, someone who is in a high position but doesn't have any airs about it. It's really rare, and I'd like to toast you,'

'Yes, it is rare,' Xiao Zhijie also raised his glass.

Although Feng Yiping tried his best to set the mood, the atmosphere was never very lively, especially with Xiao Zhijie. Although he acted happy, Feng Yiping knew that he must not have been feeling well.

After paying the bill, there was no other drama to be seen. There was no group of people waiting outside. After parting with Zheng Jiayi, the journey was quite smooth. No one was driving behind them, and from the way Xie Ding'an spoke, he was not a mindless person.

When they arrived at Xiao Zhijie's building, Feng Yiping took the initiative and said, 'Let's go visit your home together!'

He lives alone, so of course it's not as tidy as Wang Changning's place, but it's still quite clean. There's a bag of instant noodles in the bin, so it looks like he really did have instant noodles for lunch.

Xiao Zhijie also wants to boil some water for tea, but Feng Yiping stops him, 'No, let's just sit and chat!'

'Oh,' Xiao Zhijie sits down a little reluctantly.

'Let's go,' seeing that they want to talk, Huang Jingping invites Yu Lian to go to the kitchen.

'Zhi Jie, I know you were upset tonight, I'm really sorry,'

'No, didn't he apologise?'

'I just want to say a few words, and let that person make an insipid apology. I really don't fear offending Zheng Jiayi. For example, if we replaced Zheng Jiayi with one of your classmates today, whom we don't know very well, and encountered a situation like this, we would still help her stop the guy who was courting her, wouldn't we?' He really didn't want Xiao Zhijie to think that the reason they had handled the situation tonight in this way was because he was only concerned about Zheng Jiayi's feelings.

If it had been any other girl, the three of them would really have helped her fend off the advances.

On hearing this, Xiao Zhijie's temper eased a little.

'Things are different now. We're all considered to be in society now, and we'll encounter all kinds of people and things in the future. For something like what happened today, if we were to do what we did in junior high school and beat the guy up on the spot, or find someone to take care of them, that would certainly be the most satisfying.

Let's not talk about the possible other consequences of doing so. But you can surely also imagine that that Xie guy will definitely look for an opportunity to get his revenge.

Xiao Zhijie nodded. He would think about revenge if he were made to feel inferior, not to mention Xie Dingan, who was always arrogant. It was possible that a bloodbath caused by the seat-sharing incident would really happen.

'More importantly, if we are so calculating about everything, not only will we suffer, we will also have no time or energy to do other things.

We want to get things done, so sometimes we need to be more generous and open-minded. It's not about being a pushover, but it's really not necessary to argue with those people and get angry with them.'

Everyone in the world inevitably has their moments when they feel frustrated, whether you are the richest or the most powerful.

'Right,' Wang Changning said, putting a hand on Xiao Zhijie's shoulder, "if a dog bites you, you can't bite the dog back!" He quoted a saying that Feng Yiping used to say.

Today's incident can be considered a nuisance, but compared to the various injustices that will be encountered in the future, it really isn't anything. It's just a young man who relies on the power of his friends' family to show off in front of people he considers to have no background.

'That's not what I'm angry about. I'm mainly angry about why those two people were so arrogant in front of us. It's because the Xie family has officials in their family. I'm angry about this kind of culture. Can people look down on others because someone in their family is an official?'

'Although I'm also angry, but in many cases, this is really the case. Moreover, this kind of culture is the same all over the world. The children of those officials elected by the people in Europe and the United States also have this kind of character.' Feng Yiping patted Xiao Zhijie on the shoulder and told him this cruel truth.

The song sings about raising your voice when you see injustice, but that's just a lie to children. When we grow up and enter society, we may often have to silently endure the injustice done to us.

'But there are good people out there, just like Zheng Jiayi. In our city, her mother is a high-ranking official, but the classmates whose parents were section chiefs that we met in high school were much more arrogant than her.'

Feng Yiping and Wang Changning's words of comfort finally made Xiao Zhijie stop smiling so artificially. 'Okay, no need to say anymore, I've figured it out too. It's just a guy who doesn't know his own weight talking nonsense. It's nothing. I hope those two can continue to maintain and carry forward this attitude. One day, they will hit a brick wall. But,'

he changed the subject, 'I want to become an official in the future,'

'Don't,'

'Forget it,'

Wang Changning and Feng Yiping spoke at the same time to stop him.

'You go first,' Feng Yiping let Wang Changning speak first.

'If you don't say how many years it will take for you to get ahead, if you really enter the system and encounter something similar to today's incident, you will be afraid to really offer your seat voluntarily, and you will be afraid that even if you speak to Zheng Jiayi, you won't be as casual as you are now. Can you bear this?'

'Yes, if you find a job outside, the boss will scold you, the supervisor will scold you, you can endure it if you want to, or you can just clap the table and leave if you don't want to. But if you really enter the system, it's actually not a big deal if your superior scolds you. Sometimes, it can be considered your achievement to be scolded by a leader with a rank. However, what if you have to endure the praise and the blame? You have to endure it if you can't, I'm afraid that if you're young, you'll have a heart problem.'

Feng Yiping knows Xiao Zhijie's character very well. He is someone who can't stand injustice, but is also good at scheming, and has a bit of a cynical nature.

This is precisely what makes it even more difficult for people. On the one hand, they can't stand the injustice, but on the other hand, they know very well that in order to get ahead in the future and climb the ladder, they must endure this kind of injustice. Feng Yiping is worried that if this really happens, there is no guarantee that this guy will not become mentally twisted in the future.

'If others can make a name for themselves, why can't I?' Xiao Zhijie was still a little unconvinced.

'Yes, you can definitely do it, but if you use the time and energy you spend on that to do something else, you will definitely achieve even greater success, and you will be more relaxed and carefree in the process. Isn't that right?'

This kid, don't let today's excitement really make you determined to get into the system.

Fortunately, Xiao Zhijie knew very well in his heart that it would be difficult to do so. 'I was just saying that, to see how nervous you two are,'

'Of course we're nervous, you don't want to enter the wrong profession, comrade!'

Later, some local tyrants would not let their children inherit their millions, but instead they would let them take the civil service exam. They said that when they were doing their work, a junior clerk could give them a hard time, so they wanted their children to enter the system as well.

It seems that by doing so, his children will never have to look anyone else in the eye again, and they will even be able to look others in the eye. They are being completely inconsiderate and acting out of anger. When his children first joined the system, they were at the bottom of the food chain, so it is only natural that they would have to look people in the eye and put up with difficulties.

On the way home, Huang Jingping was driving, and she saw Feng Yiping sitting beside her without saying a word. When they were waiting at a red light, she said, 'I think you are more comfortable in front of Xiao Zhijie and Wang Changning.'

'Yes, we are like brothers, we can say anything,'

'So it's not okay with me?'

'That's different. Some things are more appropriate to say to them. To give you a very simple example, there are things you would definitely feel comfortable saying to Jinju, wouldn't you?'

'Have you heard of a common saying that very well expresses the difference between you and them?'

'Oh, which one?' Seeing that Feng Yiping had come to talk, Huang Jingping of course had to be supportive.

'Brothers are like hands and feet, and women are like clothes,' Feng Yiping said with a smile.

'Hmph,' Huang Jingping was greatly disappointed. One is born on the body, the other is worn on the body, and it is obvious which is more important.

'Don't worry, I'm not done yet. You mess with my clothes, and I'll chop off your hands and feet,' Feng Yiping said with a smile.

'Haha,' Huang Jingping laughed so hard that she couldn't even hold the steering wheel steady, so Feng Yiping quickly reached out to grab it. "Be careful,'

luckily there were not many cars on the road at this time, so she glared at Feng Yiping in annoyance, "You're just full of strange and twisted logic.'
