Real And Fake Young Lady: I Have Seven Brothers Pampering Me After I Transmigrated Novel - Chapter 269

269 The Future Is in Sight

Chu Ning finally understood. Xu Xi’s uncle must be the Deputy Mayor to be able to sit next to the mayor.

These two people, who stood at the top of M City, were now sitting opposite her.

“Okay, Uncle Xu.” Chu Ning did not dare to show an ounce of disrespect towards the two men.

The following conversation went smoothly. After making sure the mayor and his deputy had sought her out for a simple chat, Chu Ning no longer held back. The three continued to converse until Li Cha received a call.

‘To still have people looking for him at eight o’clock in the evening… It’s not easy being the mayor.’ Chu Ning sighed in her heart.

“Chu Ning, study hard and don’t slack off. Youngsters like you are the future of the country and the hope of the city’s development. I look forward to the day we can stand side-by-side for the betterment of the people.” Chu Ning listened attentively, following the two men out of the tea house. The mayor’s secretary opened the car’s door and stood waiting for them.

“I’ll do my best to live up to these expectations,” Chu Ning nodded. Mayor Li’s words were proof of his sincerity and clear desire to work with her in the future for the city’s sake. It was also a not-so-discrete method of pushing her toward politics as a possible path.

“Xiao Liu, give her your contact information,” Mayor Li said to the young man beside him. “If you have difficulties or troubles you can’t solve yourself, contact him. You may call me directly, but I might not be able to pick up if I’m otherwise occupied.”

Just as the mayor finished speaking, the young man next to him handed Chu Ning a business card.

Under Chu Ning’s watchful gaze, the car chauffeuring the mayor and his deputy slowly disappeared around the next corner.

Chu Ning stared at the name card in her hand, deep in thought.

She now had someone to back her up. In M City, it was not likely anyone else had a backer as strong as hers.

“Xu Xi, thank you for handing me this trump card,” Chu Ning muttered to herself. She did not feel sleepy, and her head no longer throbbed painfully.

Meanwhile, Li Cha and Xu Gang continued their conversation in the car. The topic of discussion was related to Chu Ning.

“The investors of the amusement park should have heard of the incident by now,” Xu Gang said.

“Chu Ning did them a great service by minimizing their losses. I heard she spent more than 200,000 Yuan to delay those tourists. Is that right, Xiao Liu?” Li Cha asked his secretary.

“Yes, Mayor Li.” The secretary, Xiao Liu, nodded, answering affirmatively.

“That girl is far more mature than most people her age. I can’t help but question whether she is actually eighteen. She spoke with us for more than two hours, yet she never let anything slip. Her words were well-thought, neither overly humble nor overbearing. She is worth nurturing. Her achievements in the past few months have reached heights few ever manage to attain, and she is still so young…” Xu Gang sighed. His nephew did not hold a candle to Chu Ning.

“Flexible and willing to learn… She is someone born to be in politics.” Li Cha nodded in agreement. Although he was taking the long view of things, there was no doubt that Chu Ning would become a force to be reckoned with. She was an all-rounder now, even at the age of eighteen. What more if she was given time to grow into herself?

“Xiao Liu, call the investors of the amusement park and inform them that I have heard enough. Tell them I value Chu Ning very much and that they can do as they see fit!”

The car Li Cha and Xu Gang were in gradually accelerated, overtaking two others without any obstruction.

The car plate number of the vehicle they were in was 0001, flaunting the owner as the supreme power of M City.

As the biggest investor and shareholder in the amusement park, Tang Sheng received the news as soon as the incident regarding the observation tower occurred.

He also learned of Chu Ning’s heroic feat, which minimized his losses and prevented casualties.

More importantly, however, was that few people knew what exactly happened. It was a blessing in disguise.

Yet, that soon changed when he received a phone call. It lasted less than two minutes, but it was enough for a layer of sweat to form over his brows. Tang Sheng knew he could do nothing even if the person on the line had asked him to do something.

Tang Sheng hesitated as the call cut, but he worked up the courage to dial another number.

“Hello, is this Miss Chu?”

“This is Chu Ning speaking.” Chu Ning was sure that she did not know this person.

“I’m Tang Sheng, an investor in the amusement park…” Chu Ning listened to the other party’s introduction patiently. She knew there was more to the topic than what Tang Sheng had said.
