Chapter 467: Chapter 467 Heavyweight Guest_1

Mayor Ji Mingyang was chatting with Bai Xiaosheng, both of them in high spirits.

Secretary Zhang Meng could tell that the mayor was very happy, seemingly hitting it off with Bai Xiaosheng right from the start.

Bai Xiaosheng was also very relaxed, totally at ease.

As they talked, they would burst into laughter from time to time.

This young man really is something! Just by this ability to talk and laugh freely, his future prospects are boundless!

Zhang Meng couldn’t help but sigh in admiration, regarding Bai Xiaosheng with even greater esteem.

He had already signaled for tea to be refilled for Mayor Ji and Bai Xiaosheng three times, yet they were still chatting enthusiastically, showing no sign of wanting to stop.

Mayor Ji was breaking down and explaining the provincial criteria for the selection of the top ten benchmark enterprises, along with his own interpretations, to Bai Xiaosheng.

Bai Xiaosheng asked questions from time to time, prompting new thoughts in Mayor Ji.

Previously, Mayor Ji had intended to just pass the document to the General Manager of Zhongjing Media, Song Changkong, or whoever, to let them figure it out on their own before offering further guidance.

Now, he was directly involved.

Not only did he analyze the document, but he also described potential enterprises from thirteen prefecture-level cities to Bai Xiaosheng, analyzing each one of them.

After eliminating those that weren’t competitive and weeding out those that didn’t qualify to compete with Zhongjing Media, Mayor Ji highlighted one enterprise.

"Tianzheng Media from Langbei City! This company, I worry about the most, and it’s the only one that can pose the strongest competition to your Zhongjing Media! You must pay attention to them!" Mayor Ji said, his own demeanor extremely serious.

This attitude caused Bai Xiaosheng to become solemn as well.

However, hearing about Langbei City, Zhang Meng’s expression turned slightly odd.

Of course, Bai Xiaosheng didn’t notice his reaction.

But Bai Xiaosheng did see a hint of something unusual on Mayor Ji’s own face.

Although it was fleeting, Bai Xiaosheng still caught it.

After all, with his observational skills honed by system assistance, Bai Xiaosheng’s eyes were sharper than most.

"Mayor Ji’s expression, it seems not just out of concern for this enterprise; it seems when mentioning the mayor of Langbei City, there was something in his expression..." Bai Xiaosheng thought to himself.

"I have to tell you about this Tianzheng Media, they..." Mayor Ji regained his composure, about to continue speaking.

The office door was then knocked on.

Taken aback by the interruption, Mayor Ji’s face showed a trace of displeasure.

Zhang Meng immediately frowned and looked over.

He had given explicit instructions not to disturb for any reason. Those who came to refill water could enter without knocking, but they had to be extremely quiet so as not to disturb the mayor’s conversation.

Everything had been fine until now; how could someone suddenly disregard the rules!

The office door was pushed open, and a junior secretary poked her head inside, her face showing an inexplicable meaning.

"Mayor, Secretary Zhang, there’s a visitor."

"Wang, what’s the matter with you? Didn’t you see the mayor is talking? Have the guests wait in the meeting room!" Secretary Zhang scolded with furrowed brows.

Wang looked distressed, unusually not responding right away.

"Who is it?" Mayor Ji felt something was wrong and asked.

"It’s me! Why, Mayor Ji, aren’t you welcoming me?"

Before Secretary Wang could respond, a voice came from behind him. Female, quite domineering.

Wang wore a pained expression, whispering, "Mayor, Secretary Zhang, I couldn’t stop her..."

While he was speaking, Wang was pushed aside, and a woman walked in from behind him.

About forty years old, with short hair, her skin was well-maintained, glowing with vitality, her demeanor striking, and amidst her mature and self-assured smile, her eyes half-smiling as they watched Ji Mingyang.

Bai Xiaosheng cast a suspicious glance at her and then noticed that Ji Mingyang’s expression changed significantly, even revealing a hint of timidity.

Ji Mingyang stood up, his expression returning to normal.

Bai Xiaosheng followed suit and rose as well.

"I didn’t expect you could come, hehe, welcome, welcome." Ji Mingyang led Bai Xiaosheng and Zhang Meng over.

Who is this, and why is Mayor Ji behaving so unnaturally?

Bai Xiaosheng was curious.

At the same time, he noticed that behind the lady, besides a very young female secretary, there was also a man.

That man also looked to be around forty. His demeanor was calm, his face adorned with an effortless smile, as if smiling was a natural state for him. His smile was gentle, his gaze soft, the whole person exuding a gentlemanly aura. However, Bai Xiaosheng felt, without rhyme or reason, a sharpness from him.

It seemed as though the man was an unsheathed sword, with edge concealed and sharpness gathered!

Bai Xiaosheng almost instantly sensed something unusual about the man!

Perhaps this was the sixth sense.

The man also seemed to notice Bai Xiaosheng and smiled warmly at him.

But Bai Xiaosheng faintly felt a sharp edge in the other’s gaze!

This was definitely not an illusion, nor was it fanciful thinking!

"Mr. Bai, come, let me introduce you." Ji Mingyang, with his expression back to normal and smiling, introduced the lady to Bai Xiaosheng, "This is the Mayor of Langbei City, Su Shu! Su Shu, this is the General Manager of our city’s leading enterprise, Zhongjing Media’s Bai Xiaosheng!"

It was actually the Mayor of Langbei City, and a female mayor at that! Bai Xiaosheng was surprised.

However, he couldn’t help but feel suspicious. Why did it seem that Mayor Ji Mingyang was somewhat fearful of Mayor Su Shu...

Bai Xiaosheng smiled and took the initiative to extend his hand, "Mayor Su, hello!"

"Hello." Su Shu extended her hand gracefully, lightly grasping Bai Xiaosheng’s, yet her eyes were assessing him with quite a bit of curiosity.

"Zhongjing Media, I know this company, the leading enterprise of Zhongjing City. Wasn’t the General Manager Song Changkong? I have even met him. What happened, when did they replace him, and with someone so... young and promising?" Su Shu said with a smile, expressing surprise.

Though the female mayor’s demeanor didn’t show anything unusual, at least not visible to others, Bai Xiaosheng—through his system training, focused on nuances—detected from the corner of her eyes and brows.

Mayor Su Shu had a hint of pleasure.

Why is she so pleased that the General Manager isn’t Song Changkong?

Bai Xiaosheng then remembered the "opponent" Ji Mingyang had reminded him earlier to beware of—Tianzheng Media from Langbei City.

This Mayor Su Shu was the Mayor of Langbei City!

The two were the biggest competitors!

It seemed she felt that without Song Changkong, their chances of winning were even greater!

So, I am being underestimated, huh!

Bai Xiaosheng smiled and said to Mayor Su, "Mr. Song Changkong had to leave due to certain matters, and I was just fortunate enough to become the General Manager. It’s quite embarrassing! My abilities are still inadequate! Here I am, benefiting from Mayor Ji’s guidance."

Ji Mingyang couldn’t help but glance at Bai Xiaosheng.

This kid, he could certainly play the part!

Even though he had pushed out Song Changkong, he made out as if he had risen to his position by luck, was he trying to lull Su Shu into a false sense of security?

Ji Mingyang smiled without speaking and suddenly noticed the person following Su Shu.

"And who is this?" asked Ji Mingyang.

"Oh, him?" Su Shu smiled, creating a gap and pointing to the man behind her, "The General Manager of Tianzheng Media—Mu Beichen!"
