Rebirth of the Peak Young Master
Chapter 106 Misleading Guidance

That is, the Taiwan Su Family!

Although far from Binjiang, it is financially powerful and can even influence inland China!

The Li Family’s rise as the dominant force in Binjiang is somewhat connected to the Su Family, because the Li Family and Su Family are relatives!

So upon hearing Ye Cheng’s words, everyone naturally took them as truth.

However, anger quickly followed.

A mere bumpkin from the North Suburb, a brat of seventeen or eighteen, using the reputation of the Su Family to act so brazenly?

"Mr. Ye, what do you think..."

Wu Hao hadn’t finished speaking before Ye Cheng sneered and said, "Young Master Wu, no need to dwell on it. The Su Family has long declared that it’s severed ties with Su Hongyun. That boy is merely borrowing their name and bluffing! Even if those two old men Li and Guo come to visit, what does it matter? We are no worse here!"

"No worse than them? Mr. Ye, what do you mean?" Wu Hao asked with curiosity.

Ye Cheng didn’t immediately reply but instead called out, "Where’s Xie Rong?"

"Family Head, I’m here!"

Xie Rong hurriedly and obsequiously ran forward, behaving like a sycophant.

Seeing this, Ye Cheng immediately asked, "The task I gave you earlier—how did you handle it?"

"Rest assured, Family Head! I’ve already notified the municipal government, and I believe it won’t be long before someone arrives!" Xie Rong said with a sly grin.

Wu Hao, hearing this, asked suspiciously, "Mr. Ye, what task did you assign him?"

"Young Master Wu, think about it. Recently, there has been a cooperative project between Binjiang and Ann Province. With Wu Family’s Young Master, who commands a third of Ann Province’s influential circles, in Binjiang, wouldn’t the municipal government send someone upon finding out?" Ye Cheng explained with a smile.

Wu Hao immediately understood.

The Wu Family’s dominance over a third of Ann Province’s power isn’t solely due to its financial resources; Wu Hao’s father is the head of the provincial government’s transportation department!

And the recent collaborative project between Binjiang and Ann Province happens to be overseen by Wu Hao’s father, so if Binjiang’s municipal government learns of this, they’re bound to send someone!

Ye Cheng saw Wu Hao had caught on and sneered, "How formidable are the leaders of Su Province’s thirteen cities? How about the Li Family? In the end, they’re just a bunch of people reliant on connections above them. Even that old man Guo Tiansi, who used to be in the military—he’s now merely a washed-up old figure. How can they compare with the municipal government’s high-level officials coming in person!"

"Are you saying that Mayor Xu might come?" asked the Wang Family Patriarch curiously.

"Not just Mayor Xu. Consider that the collaboration with Ann Province is a significant achievement this time. Thanks to Young Master Wu, it won’t just be Mayor Xu—don’t you think several of the vice mayors would want to profit as well?" Ye Cheng grinned confidently.

Everyone burst into laughter upon hearing this.

With the mayor and vice mayors in attendance, who would care about Su Province’s so-called leaders or the Su Family?

Ye Zhixiong couldn’t help but mock violently, "When Mayor Xu and the others arrive, Young Master Wu, you must make sure to regain the face you just lost!"

"Haha, don’t worry, Family Patriarch Ye! I know what to do!" Wu Hao retorted with a sneer.

Sure enough.

Soon after.

A few government-plated vehicles pulled up at the gates of the Ye Family manor.

As the car doors opened, several men with an air of authority stepped into the Ye Family estate. At the same time, Xie Rong, who had been waiting by the entrance, exultantly announced, "Secretary Zheng, Mayor Xu, Vice Mayor Yao, Vice Mayor Gong have arrived!"

Upon hearing that Mayor Xu and two vice mayors had arrived, the mood in the Ye Family hall was still calm—but upon hearing about Secretary Zheng, everyone visibly froze for a moment, then broke into triumphant laughter.

"Haha! I had predicted that the mayors would come in person, but I didn’t expect Secretary Zheng to show up too! It seems, Young Master Wu, that the big shots of Binjiang truly value your Wu Family!" Ye Cheng remarked with a jovial laugh.

In China, is the mayor the highest-ranking official of a city?

Of course not—the most powerful position is the municipal Communist Party Secretary!

If Mayor Xu is the main executive head of Binjiang, then Secretary Zheng is the real leader in charge!

Now that Secretary Zheng has come, the Ye Family’s earlier embarrassment has vanished completely.

Wu Hao couldn’t help smirking and said, "Not at all. It’s all thanks to Mr. Ye’s precise planning! Let’s quickly go and greet Secretary Zheng and the others!"

"Alright!"

Ye Cheng immediately nodded and followed Wu Hao, accompanied by the Wang Family Patriarch, as they headed toward the entrance.

"Haha! Xiao Wu is indeed here! And Mr. Ye too—long time no see, what an honor!"

Outside the hall, Secretary Zheng, seeing Wu Hao and others, chuckled heartily and walked toward them.

Wu Hao quickly stepped forward and said, "Hello, Uncle Zheng!"

"Very well!"

Secretary Zheng nodded in satisfaction and asked, "How is your father recently?"

"My father is doing great. He often mentions you, Secretary Zheng, and says he’s delighted to collaborate with you!"

Wu Hao promptly responded.

As Young Master of the Wu Family, Wu Hao naturally knew the importance of saying the right words at the right time.

Secretary Zheng’s visit wasn’t to honor him or the Wu Family, but to address the collaboration between Binjiang and Ann Province.

Indeed, hearing Wu Hao’s response, Secretary Zheng laughed even more warmly.

Mayor Xu, standing to the side, also chimed in with a grin, "Xiao Wu, Secretary Zheng left a meeting halfway through to come greet you today—you’d better not disappoint him!"

"Don’t worry, Uncle Xu, I know what I’m doing!" Wu Hao said with a smile.

Seeing Wu Hao’s tactful attitude, Secretary Zheng, Mayor Xu, and the two vice mayors all nodded with satisfaction.

This visit was primarily to gauge Wu Hao’s father’s stance on the Binjiang-Ann Province collaboration.

Otherwise, no mere Young Master Wu could have drawn all of them here.

Still, since they were here, it was only fitting to exchange pleasantries with Ye Cheng before heading inside.

Just as the group was about to enter the main hall, Wang Yuting suddenly noticed Jia Qing walking in from the main gate.

"Qingqing? Where did you go just now?" Wang Yuting asked with curiosity, stepping forward.

"I was naturally across the street with my father," Jia Qing said, glancing at the members of the Ye Family, Wang Family, and Wu Family in turn.

Wang Yuting, hearing this, instinctively pouted.

She had noticed earlier how Jia Yu and the others treated Ye Fei, so it wasn’t surprising Jia Qing had been there too.

But her curiosity got the better of her, and she asked, "Qingqing, what exactly is Ye Fei’s background? Why would your father go across the street? And even..."

"Even show such deference, right?"

Before Wang Yuting could finish, Jia Qing sighed and interjected, "Tingting, take my advice—tell your grandfather not to get too close to the Ye Family or Wu Family; otherwise, not even your Wang Family will be safe!"

"Not even our Wang Family will be safe?"

Before Wang Yuting could respond, Wu Hao chuckled coldly and said mockingly, "Jia Qing, aren’t your words a bit exaggerated? What exactly is Ye Fei? My Wu Family at risk? And are you implying Secretary Zheng and Mayor Xu won’t be able to protect us?"
