Chapter 766: Chapter 766: Because I am Bai Xiaosheng!_1

Yang Chengtian’s words took Bai Xiaosheng, Mu Beichen, and Zheng Qinghong by surprise.

They stunned everyone else who hadn’t left as well.

Yang Chengtian claimed that he was greeting the top three rankers.

Based on his sequence, was Bai Xiaosheng first again this time?!

All eyes converged on the three of them, but most were fixated on Bai Xiaosheng.

Even including Mu Beichen and Zheng Qinghong, they all turned their attention to Bai Xiaosheng!

Lin Ke only announced the list of those eliminated, without ever mentioning the top ranks.

People like Mu Beichen and Zheng Qinghong would have channels and means to clarify this matter, but it would take time.

And the longer it took, the less valuable this information would become, to the point where it wasn’t worth investing resources to find out.

Thus, the ranking in the second phase was akin to a tasteless meal for them, unenjoyable, yet a pity to discard.

But now it was different, as Yang Chengtian had proactively revealed this free piece of information.

It left them shocked, struggling to accept it!

"I had an entire small team led by Bai Xiaocheng helping me, obtaining detailed and accurate information, yet I ended up only third, behind Mu Beichen, and even below Bai Xiaosheng?"

Zheng Qinghong’s gaze couldn’t help but show some shock and anger.

"How is this possible! My ’Secretary Department’ has been established for many years, full of talents, with the best analysts and information collectors, my data is the most complete and accurate! It’s not beyond me to exceed Zheng Qinghong’s results. Why then do I still rank below Bai Xiaosheng!"

Mu Beichen’s eyes betrayed a hint of incomprehension and confusion.

After all, both were thinking about how excellent their information gathering was, not realizing that the data they prided themselves on was considered insignificant by Bai Xiaosheng.

The examination wasn’t a competition about who collected more or finer data, but about application!

In this regard, they still hadn’t realized—

Bai Xiaosheng was also above them!

"Bai Xiaosheng dominated the first stage of the examination, coming first in all three events, a truly terrifying individual!"

"The loss in the last assessment of the first phase did not signify his weakness! And yet we overlooked him!"

"Unexpectedly, Bai Xiaosheng is still the top ranker in the second phase of the examination!"

"It’s really surprising that he has taken the lead again!"

"From now on, we must treat him as a formidable opponent!"

Those who hadn’t left looked at Bai Xiaosheng with various expressions, murmurs of discussion endlessly filling the air.

This time, Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t avoid attention even if he wanted to keep a low profile!

Zhao Qianze looked at Bai Xiaosheng with admiration shining in her eyes.

She knew, she believed in Bai Xiaosheng’s ability to reclaim first place!

Indeed, this belief was now confirmed!

Far from feeling threatened, Zhao Qianze was beaming with happiness.

Bai Xiaosheng gave Yang Chengtian a deep look, his eyes carrying a smile that was not quite a smile.

This Affairs Officer Yang seemed to be stirring up trouble, openly inviting hostility toward him.

"Thank you for the information, Officer Yang," said Bai Xiaosheng, smiling at Yang Chengtian. "However, the second phase has ended, and high or low scores won’t affect the third phase, right?"

"Yes, that’s right, it won’t have any effect," Yang Chengtian responded cheerfully.

"Then I hope that next time, I’ll hear Officer Yang announcing in person that I’m the first in this stage!" Bai Xiaosheng gave him a smile, gathered his things, and nodded to him, "Excuse me."

Yang Chengtian smiled, stepped aside to give him room, and let Bai Xiaosheng pass.

Zhao Qianze, without a word, nodded and smiled at Yang Chengtian, following Bai Xiaosheng out.

Yang Chengtian watched Bai Xiaosheng leave, his eyes flickering uncertainly.

As Bai Xiaosheng left, the others lingered no longer, each taking their belongings and withdrawing.

What came next was their greatest test.

One month, thirty days.

To venture into other regions and negotiate partnerships with conglomerate enterprises, even if there were those behind the scenes providing some assistance, was an incredibly arduous challenge!

They needed to use their own abilities, to prove to the Affairs Department and to the President of the Greater China Region their competence and their qualifications to become the person in charge of provincial industry!

Zheng Qinghong and Mu Beichen also left one after another.

Yang Chengtian summoned the few people he brought with him, his voice unflinchingly steady, "Let’s go, back to the Affairs Department!"

Meanwhile, outside.

Zhao Qianze caught up with Bai Xiaosheng, walking side by side with him along the tree-lined paths of Zhongjing University.

"In a blink, it’s been two months since we arrived in Zhongjing," Zhao Qianze began, her voice gentle, and her gaze at Bai Xiaosheng even more tender, "I’ve gotten used to it here, but now we have to leave."

"All good things come to an end," Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile.

Zhao Qianze’s eyes wandered to their surroundings, watching the sunlight scatter through the leaves onto the ground, mottled and speckled, "That saying... it’s quite melancholic..."

Bai Xiaosheng shrugged his shoulders, remaining silent.

The two continued walking in silence for a while.

Zhao Qianze’s mood lightened a bit, and smiling at Bai Xiaosheng, she said, "Anyway, it’s been a time to remember, all because I met you... Otherwise, we might not have gotten through those difficulties! The world of fragrances would also lack one scent! Thank you!"

"See you at the Affairs Department," Bai Xiaosheng suddenly said with a smile.

"What?" Zhao Qianze was startled.

"I said, see you at the Affairs Department," Bai Xiaosheng repeated with a grin, "I believe you can make it to the end, and I believe in myself too. Sister Zhao, although it’s true that all good things must come to an end, there’s also ’meeting an old friend in a foreign land’."

Zhao Qianze fixed her gaze on him, her lips slowly curling into a sweet smile.

"See you at the Affairs Department!"

After parting with Zhao Qianze, Bai Xiaosheng took a car back to Zhongjing Media. On the way, he rested with his eyes closed and a slight furrow in his brow.

"Mr. Bai, you... seem troubled?" Feng couldn’t help but glance at him through the rearview mirror, tentatively asking.

Bai Xiaosheng opened his eyes and gave him a smile, "Mm, there’s a bit of a challenge from the group, not an easy one! I’m thinking about ways to deal with it."

"You’ll definitely have a way!" Feng said without hesitation, confidently.

Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t help but laugh, "Why do I feel like you are more confident than I am?"

"I just believe in you," Feng also chuckled.

"Why?" Bai Xiaosheng was curious about the source of his unwavering trust.

"Why?" Feng repeated the question, then answered decisively, "Because you are Bai Xiaosheng, our Mr. Bai!"

Could this be considered a reason? Could it or couldn’t it? No it couldn’t!

There was no why—Bai Xiaosheng was simply the source of Feng’s trust!

In half a year, Bai Xiaosheng had revitalized Zhongjing Media with vigorous life force, turning it into a provincial benchmark enterprise, the largest in Zhongjing, leading the media industry!

He blazed through one unbelievable feat after another!

There was no why!

"Because you are Bai Xiaosheng!"

Bai Xiaosheng was momentarily astonished, then he laughed.

"Perhaps you’re right, I’ll definitely find a way... not for any reason, but because I am Bai Xiaosheng!"

Bai Xiaosheng said with utmost certainty, to Feng and more to himself!

In his eyes erupted an unprecedented confidence and glory.

No matter the circumstances, he had to believe in himself—resolutely and without doubt!
