Chapter 555: Chapter 555 I’m looking for Bai Xiaosheng!_1

The Li Family’s quarrel, bubbling like a boiling pot.

The Bai and Li Families, whether due to long-term grievances or yesterday’s provocations, had their emotions ignited in an instant.

If the argument continued, things might spiral out of control.

When Li Wenzun and Li Fengguan could no longer suppress it, physical altercation was not far off.

Just then, a servant rushed in and with a single sentence, extinguished the fire that raged throughout the room.

It was like dousing a boiling pot of water with a basin of cold water.

The mayor, has arrived!

"What, which mayor?!" Li Wenzun even asked incredulously, somewhat bewildered.

"It’s our Tianqing City Mayor Dai Mingcheng ah!" The servant excitedly exclaimed.

Li Wenzun suddenly stood up, his eyes bulging and round.

The Li Family members looked at each other in shock, all astonished.

Li Feitian couldn’t believe his eyes either.

The mayor had come?

Li Feitian found it hard to believe.

It should be known that ever since Tianfu Wealth Management applied to be a provincial benchmark enterprise, the mayor had only visited once, offering simple encouragement on the spot, nothing more.

Despite Tianfu Wealth Management being pushed to apply for benchmark enterprise status, frankly speaking, in terms of profitability and taxation, it didn’t even rank in the top five among Tianqing’s major taxpayers!

Not being given much attention, Li Feitian was self-aware.

The issue now was, why would the mayor come to his home!

Li Feitian couldn’t think of a reason.

If Mayor Dai was coming, Secretary Zhou would certainly accompany him. Perhaps the mayor knew about the issues with their innovative product. Was that the reason for his visit?

But for a mayor of his standing, if he wanted to inquire about the matter, he could simply summon him for a report. Was there really a need for a personal visit?

If it wasn’t for that matter, then Li Feitian truly couldn’t figure out any other reason the mayor would come!

His Li Family didn’t have enough clout to request a visit from the mayor.

Otherwise, there would’ve been no need to put so much effort into dealing with Secretary Zhou.

Li Feitian felt utterly bewildered.

"Quick, open the gates wide! You all, follow me to welcome the mayor!" Li Wenzun commanded in a stern voice.

Then, he cast a faint glance at the Bai Family Members and said to Li Fengguan, "Fengguan, you should head back to the front courtyard first. If you want to leave now, I regret that you’ll have to take the side door. As you’ve seen, we have an important guest, and I cannot accompany you out!"

With the mayor’s arrival, it was very likely he knew about that matter.

Fortune or misfortune, there was no longer a need for Bai Xiaosheng to apologize to Secretary Zhou.

In fact, Li Wenzun felt that if Bai Xiaosheng stayed, he might bring trouble.

It was better to let them go.

So, the undertone in Li Wenzun’s voice was clearly one of seeing off guests.

Having said that, Li Wenzun didn’t wait for a response and hurriedly led people away.

As the old man walked away, Yu Qingmei glanced at Li Fengguan.

"Amei, later you take them out through the side door," Yu Qingmei instructed, her words carrying the clear intent to shoo them away.

She gave this single order and quickly followed after the others.

With Li Wenzun and Yu Qingmei making themselves clear, there was no point for the Bai Family Members to stay any longer.

"Let’s go," Li Fengguan said, unfazed.

The Bai Family Members nodded silently, surrounding the old lady, and followed the servant Amei out.

Amei, cold and detached, was not so much seeing off the guests as following the old lady’s wishes to ensure the Bai Family’s departure.

Initially, Bai Xiaosheng, upon hearing of Dai Mingcheng’s arrival, wanted to meet him, as they had after all had the chance to sit down and talk in Zhongjing.

But seeing the current situation, Bai Xiaosheng abandoned the idea of following them.

Forget it, I’ll find an opportunity to apologize to Mayor Dai later, Bai Xiaosheng thought to himself. He gave up on his plan to meet Dai Mingcheng and, with the others, followed his grandmother back to the front courtyard.

With their belongings packed in large and small bags, everything was ready. The RV was parked just outside the courtyard wall, not too far away.

The Bai Family Members silently carried their items, silently exiting through the side door, walking towards the RV.

Back when they had arrived, they had entered through the front door with dignity, as honored guests.

Now, upon leaving, they were exiting through the side door, as if they were being chased away.

With such a stark contrast, a sense of humiliation subtly marked the faces of the Bai Family Members.

"Why hang your heads in defeat? Stand tall and proud!" Li Fengguan couldn’t help but shout, "Do you see the difference now? Then don’t feel ashamed! As long as you live your lives well and educate your next generation properly, in the future, the Bai Family might just be as glorious, to have the mayor or even the governor visit your doorstep!"

The Bai Family Members all nodded and gathered around the old lady as they departed.

In the distance, Amei sneered, snorting coldly, lowering her voice but still loud enough for the Bai Family Members, who hadn’t gone far, to hear, "Such a small household and yet so haughty! Hmph, even if your family produced a general manager, the mayor would never visit your home! That’s the difference!"

With that, Amei closed the side door forcefully.

The Bai Family Members fell silent.

Walking beside Li Fengguan, Bai Xiaosheng’s face was sullen.

The pride of the Li Family had never changed!

Even a servant dared to do this!

Very well, I hope you don’t regret what you did today! Bai Xiaosheng thought coldly to himself.

The Li Family’s main gate was wide open.

The butler was all smiles, leading the way in front, with Mayor Dai in the lead and Zhou Yifa following behind, both of them stepping inside.

Just as they entered the second courtyard, Li Wenzun and others had already come forward to greet them.

With Li Feitian by his side, Li Wenzun’s old face beamed with joy, and upon seeing the mayor, his smile grew even wider.

"Mayor Dai, what an honor to have you visit! I’m sorry for coming out late!" Li Wenzun called out.

"Mr. Li, your words are too kind!" Dai Mingcheng hastened his pace and laughed, their hands clasping together.

"Mayor Dai, please come in, come in!" Li Wenzun eagerly ushered him further inside.

"Mayor Dai, your visit is both a surprise and an honor for Feitian!" Li Feitian grinned, hastily chiming in.

This seemingly pointless small talk was actually Li Feitian paying close attention to Mayor Dai’s demeanor.

"Mr. Li," Dai Mingcheng’s smile slightly restrained, but still present, "I’m aware of your situation. The fact that you reported it proactively instead of hiding it is very good! I’ve reported it to the provincial authorities and they’ve understood our position. Your company’s application status remains intact. However, you still cannot be complacent—the matters that need to be properly handled afterwards must be dealt with. Secretary Zhou will coordinate with you on this."

Mayor Dai had directly mentioned the issue and clarified that it had been properly resolved!

Even the provincial authorities had given their understanding!

Li Feitian’s hanging heart finally settled, feeling as if he had cleared the fog to see the clear sky, his heart filled with exhilaration.

It seemed that Mayor Dai was not angry, and had personally paid a visit!

Li Feitian was overjoyed beyond belief.

This year must be my lucky year, today must be my lucky day!

Li Feitian couldn’t help but want to remember this day, to commemorate it every year thereafter.

"Rest assured, Mayor Dai, I will handle this matter properly and will not leave any issues behind! Please put your mind at ease! Mayor, please come in!" Li Feitian was so delighted, he almost bowed and scraped.

Learning that the issue which had been a cause for concern in their household had been perfectly resolved, Li Wenzun’s old face was brimming with even more joy.

Behind him, Yu Qingmei and the Li Family Members also heard the news, all of them ecstatic.

Their Li Family’s Tianfu Wealth Management had turned disaster into fortune and now had tied connections with the mayor—it was a blessing in disguise!

Due to the troublemaker Bai Xiaosheng, they had received immense good fortune!

It must be heaven’s blessing on our Li Family! Yu Qingmei secretly gloated.

Mayor Dai took a few steps inside and suddenly said to Li Wenzun, "I heard Bai Xiaosheng was a guest at your residence; I came especially to see him. May I know where he is?"

A seemingly casual question from Mayor Dai.

The smiles on the faces of Li Wenzun, Li Feitian, Yu Qingmei, and those other Li Family Members froze instantaneously.

In everyone’s eyes, shock rose tremendously.

What!

Mayor Dai was here for Bai Xiaosheng?
