Chapter 1018: Chapter 1018: Visiting Their Respective Families

On the high-speed train to Zhongjing, in the business class,

Bai Xiaosheng sat side by side with Lin Weiwei.

After his promotion to Senior Affairs Officer, the treatment was vastly different from that of an ordinary Affairs Officer: he traveled in business class, stayed in five-star hotels, and his assistant received the same treatment.

Bai Xiaosheng had only glanced at his new office once; it was twice the size of a regular Affairs Officer’s office.

Low-key, luxurious, imposing.

Of course, Bai Xiaosheng only had time to take a glance before he hurried off.

This time going to Zhongjing, Lei Ying didn’t accompany him.

Bai Xiaosheng had given him a seven-day long vacation and a bonus of five hundred thousand yuan.

Five hundred thousand a year, even a real Affairs Assistant wouldn’t get this much.

It was given by Bai Xiaosheng.

After a busy year, the last thing to be neglected were his own people.

Lei Ying’s plane ticket home was first class.

Bai Xiaosheng and Lin Weiwei busied themselves again, preparing a large quantity of gifts and specialties for Lei Ying, which they checked in for his return.

Rubbing his hands, Lei Ying watched the two of them busily taking care of him.

The big man watched with eyes gleaming, a smile on his face, sweetness in his heart.

Perhaps the best decision he had made in his life was to follow Bai Xiaosheng, not to continue mixing in society but to enter the workplace instead.

Lei Ying had gone home.

Bai Xiaosheng and Lin Weiwei, too, had boarded the high-speed train heading for Zhongjing.

It had been more than a year, and it was time to go home for a visit.

At this moment, Lin Weiwei seated next to Bai Xiaosheng carefully peeled a tangerine, even meticulously removing the pith from the orange peels, and with her delicate, fair hand, she offered it to Bai Xiaosheng’s mouth, also opening her palm to catch the spat-out seeds.

Afterward, Lin Weiwei brought various exquisite pastries to Bai Xiaosheng’s lips.

Having eaten the pastries, Lin Weiwei then asked, "Sheng, are you thirsty? I have coffee here, all kinds of tea, what would you like to drink?"

On her little tray, there was a travel coffee cup, a thermos flask—these were all kept in the small case she had brought along.

Even Bai Xiaosheng was amazed at how well-prepared Lin Weiwei was.

"Bro, you’re so lucky!" said a young man sitting nearby, looking at them with envious eyes, and couldn’t help but express his admiration across the aisle to Bai Xiaosheng.

On this journey, he had received an abundance of ’dog food.’

The young man next door really didn’t know what good karma he had accumulated in his past lives to have such a beautiful woman attending to him like a master.

The young man was green with envy.

Bai Xiaosheng gave him a smile, offering no explanation.

This misunderstanding was quite flattering.

Accepting the tea from Lin Weiwei, Bai Xiaosheng leaned in and whispered, "Weiwei, once we get to Zhongjing, you should go home too, visit your family, and stay a few days longer."

He had also given Lin Weiwei a bonus of five hundred thousand yuan.

"And give them my regards while you’re there!"

Lin Weiwei smiled sweetly, then frowned slightly and asked, "Won’t we stop by Zhongjing Media first?"

Bai Xiaosheng had said that Zhongjing Media was experiencing some emergency situations, the circumstances being somewhat complicated, and this trip to Zhongjing was also to deal with that.

Bai Xiaosheng chuckled and said, "Even though the situation there is urgent, we are not in a rush, we can stay at home for a few days."

Lin Weiwei didn’t understand.

"My decision at the time was to tell them to hold a meeting after seven days, and the group will send someone to observe!" said Bai Xiaosheng.

Lin Weiwei was somewhat surprised, "Wow, Xiaosheng, for someone with your status as a Senior Affairs Officer, just to observe?!"

That was quite an exaggeration.

Zhongjing Media, no matter what, was just a subsidiary, even if it was a directly-managed subsidiary.

It was not worth a Senior Affairs Officer’s personal visit, let alone just to observe!

"I guess they still don’t know I’ve been promoted to Senior Affairs Officer," Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile to Lin Weiwei.

The Affairs Department was fully aware of his appointment, but at the company, only regional heads and provincial industrial leaders had access to the internal network.

"Given the current situation at Zhongjing Media, in the past, only an Affairs Assistant would be sent by the Affairs Department," Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile to Lin Weiwei. "After you’ve finished visiting your family, meet up with me, and we’ll go there together. By then, you, the Affairs Assistant, will be the main force! I’ll be accompanying."

A Senior Affairs Officer serving as an aide to an Affairs Assistant?

Of course, Bai Xiaosheng was joking.

However, Lin Weiwei was now officially an Affairs Assistant. Having completed the procedures and received her certification, she indeed had the qualifications to intervene.

"That’s great, I seem to be in the limelight this time!" Lin Weiwei laughed, her eyes filled with dreams. "I wonder how they will react when they find out about my position back home."

Lin Weiwei’s smile was joyful.

But Bai Xiaosheng’s gaze flickered as if his mind was wandering.

He kept playing with his phone, reading the detailed reports from there.

This time might disappoint Weiwei.

The situation at Zhongjing Media was not as she imagined but was even worse!

"If I were still an Affairs Officer, I’m afraid even I couldn’t resolve this properly!" Bai Xiaosheng thought to himself, his gaze flickering. "However, I am now a true Senior Affairs Officer! This time, even if it’s against the rules, I have to be strong! Those people, they’ve really gone too far! Not only do they want to mess with Zhongjing Media, they actually want to ..."

"Wang Baiduan, do you want all my past efforts to go down the drain!"

"Whoever dares to make trouble, I’ll show them no mercy!"

Bai Xiaosheng’s gaze was faintly sharp as a blade.

...

In the afternoon, when the high-speed train arrived, Bai Xiaosheng first called a taxi for Lin Weiwei to send her home.

Then, he hailed a cab for himself and headed back home.

"Turns out we are fellow townspeople; we even come from the same county!" the taxi driver was very talkative during the drive.

Bai Xiaosheng also chatted with him.

"Zhongjing is developing so fast! According to the city’s published plan, our county will be amazing in the future ... an ’Ecological Residential District’!"

"Several big developers have been acquiring land and starting construction frequently in our county, and their progress is especially fast. I heard they’re using a lot of eco-friendly materials. They’ve even brought in construction machines; those are impressive! Have you seen them online, young man?"

"There’s a top-class project being developed just a thirty-minute walk from the neighborhood you wish to go to, all traditional Chinese courtyard homes, tsk tsk ... I’ve seen the showrooms, they are incredible!"

"The first batch of courtyard homes has already been released, and a set costs tens of millions!"

The driver clicked his tongue in admiration.

"Really? Then I must take a good look when I get back!" Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile, unable to hide his interest.

When he went to the Tianqing Li Family before, he had taken a liking to their courtyard house, thinking that he would get one for his family in the future.

If the project is as good as the taxi driver described, it would be worth investing in!

In life, career is important, making money is important, but if you don’t spend your money to benefit your family, what’s the point?

Bai Xiaosheng just wanted his family to live comfortably.

"Perhaps this time, I could buy a set!" Bai Xiaosheng thought to himself.

"The mayor of Zhongjing City is truly remarkable. Look how fast Zhongjing has developed in just a year; it’s changing every day! If it hadn’t changed like this, those big developers wouldn’t have set their sights on our place, right?" the driver continued.

"Yes, indeed." Bai Xiaosheng responded with a faint smile, agreeably.

Initially, he had contributed ideas to Zhongjing’s planning; naturally, he knew about the changes over the next five years.

Seeing that Bai Xiaosheng seemed uninterested in the city’s development, the driver switched to praising how amazing and great the villas were—just outrageously expensive.

Wondering who in the world could afford to live there.

He didn’t know that the unassuming young man in the car was contemplating buying one.

If he had known, he would have been dumbstruck, having driven a young tycoon that day.

As they continued to chat along the way, the car entered the residential community, and the driver, still not having had enough, bade Bai Xiaosheng farewell.

Standing downstairs with his belongings, Bai Xiaosheng looked up at the building and couldn’t help but smile.

"Dad, Mom, I’m back!"
