“Thank you, Governor Zhou.”

“Hey, no need to be so formal, just call me Uncle Zhou.” Zhou Weiren said with a beaming smile.

He didn’t know exactly what Mr. Han was discussing with Pei Jinye,

but there was no doubt that the signals released by Mr. Han had made it clear to him… this ordinary high school student had genuinely entered that person’s vision.

What he needed to do now was to take the initiative to build a good relationship.

Being favored by Mr. Han like this, who would dare say Pei Jinye didn’t have any background?

At least in Central State, there were hardly any who could sit on an equal footing with Mr. Han’s lineage.

Pei Jinye was somewhat surprised by Zhou Weiren’s attitude, but he responded perfectly, conveying his own goodwill.

After Zhou Weiren helped Pei Jinye into the car, he suddenly asked in a low voice, “Do you know Xu Tian from Judgement Place?”

Pei Jinye looked up, seemingly understanding something, and said unaffectedly, “Due to the case of my classmate Sun Ruofan’s assassination attempt on the light rail, I’ve had two encounters with him… Strictly speaking, he has also secretly tracked me, causing some inconvenience to my life.”

“What?” Zhou Weiren was stunned, his expression a mix of surprise and a bizarre anger, “What exactly is that guy trying to do?”

Pei Jinye silently looked on, curious about why Governor Zhou suddenly brought up Xu Tian.

Zhou Weiren himself pondered Xu Tian’s actions for a moment, but he didn’t think Pei Jinye was problematic, otherwise the headquarters wouldn’t have approved him.

He simply assumed Xu Tian was jealous of talent.

He then whispered, “It’s not that I want to speak ill of him, but try to have as little to do with him as possible in the future. If he makes things difficult for you again, tell me… after all, my administrative rank is still higher than his!”

“Thank you for looking out for me, Uncle Zhou.”

“It’s nothing.”

Zhou Weiren looked at Pei Jinye, growing more and more satisfied as he watched him.

At the entrance of the base.

Hearing the rumble from above.

The driver was stunned for a moment, looked up in confusion, and stopped his meal, turning his head puzzledly, “Principal Wang, all the big shots have left, why hasn’t Pei Jinye come out yet?”

Principal Wang was also puzzled.

He had messaged Chu Wuxiu, who also seemed busy with something; he had replied an hour ago with a “Don’t worry” and hadn’t sent any messages since.

He was a bit nervous.

Could something have happened to Pei Jinye?

The Wei Family’s young master had already been picked up that afternoon.

Even Gu Wutong, the little rascal, had left an hour earlier.

Yet, Pei Jinye was still kept until the end.

Was this a good thing or a bad one?

Just as he was pondering this,

the base’s gate opened.

Principal Wang quickly looked over.

The bus for public employees came out.

Suddenly, a black hovercar stopped beside Principal Wang. Chu Wuxiu poked his head out, looked at him quizzically, “Old class monitor, haven’t you left yet?”

Seeing Chu Wuxiu, Principal Wang hurriedly approached and asked, “What’s the situation inside? I’ve sent you messages, but you didn’t reply. Why hasn’t Pei Jinye come out yet? Isn’t the assessment over?”

Chu Wuxiu was startled, then noticed that his phone had been switched off, and said with a wry smile, “There were some important figures inside, and we were ordered to maintain silence. I replied to your message right before I turned off my phone. As for Pei Jinye…”

He hesitated to continue, “He’s fine. I saw him halfway through, accompanied personally by the Governor…”

With that, he raised his head to look at Principal Wang and smiled, “I guess your school has really produced a major figure this time.”

“A major figure?” Principal Wang wanted to be reassured but couldn’t quite shake off his concern.

He looked back toward the base gate.

It happened quickly.

The base gate opened, and the convoy drove out, the vehicle in the center being none other than the Governor of Da Peng City’s car.

Just when Principal Wang and Chu Wuxiu looked over.

The convoy stopped.

Pei Jinye got out of the car and said to the person inside, “Uncle Zhou, you guys go back first, I’ll return with the principal.”

Zhou Weiren looked at Principal Wang and nodded as well.

With his rank, even Chu Wuxiu wouldn’t dare act rashly.

The two exchanged glances as they watched the convoy leave, then both silently observed Pei Jinye walking over.

“Sorry, Principal, I didn’t expect it to take so long… Uncle Chu.” Pei Jinye apologized and didn’t forget to greet Chu Wuxiu.

Chu Wuxiu chuckled dryly and nodded, “That person just now was…?”

“You mean Uncle Zhou… They just had some matters to finalize at the end, so I rode in his car,” Pei Jinye said innocently.

Chu Wuxiu cleared his throat a few times.

One “Uncle Chu”, one “Uncle Zhou”, it was clear who had more weight.

Thinking of the scene he had seen at the base in the evening, his heart became active.

It was Principal Wang who asked, “After such a long assessment, have you had dinner? I’ll take you out for some late-night snacks.”

Pei Jinye noticed the only meal box in the driver’s hand and did not object.

Just as Chu Wuxiu was hesitating whether to follow, Pei Jinye also extended an invitation, but unfortunately, Chu Wuxiu received a call for work at the last moment and had to deal with official duties, so he could only give up the idea.

They got into the car.

Principal Wang and Pei Jinye sat in the back seat, whispering a conversation between the old and the young.

“They didn’t keep you behind for any trouble, did they?”

“No trouble. I passed the three stages of the assessment, and they wanted to have a talk with me.”

Principal Wang seemed thoughtful upon hearing this.

Wei Xianren, who left first, and Gu Wutong, who left later, might also have had conversations.

But both those men had backgrounds.

Meanwhile, Pei Jinye’s family background was like a blank slate, perhaps that was why they wanted to speak with Pei Jinye.

“So, do they… have any plans for you? Did they ask you to attend any particular Wu University?”

Pei Jinye shook his head, “No, they just asked if I wanted to take a tour of the big cities. I refused. I’d rather stay in Da Peng City for the time being.”

Principal Wang was taken aback, then suddenly slapped his thigh, “Are you out of your mind? If they really wanted to take you to a big city, the resources and experiences you’d get there are definitely incomparable to what Da Peng City can offer. Is it too late to change your mind now?”

Seeing Principal Wang’s anxious look, Pei Jinye knew that if he nodded, the old principal would likely have the driver turn around and crash through the base gate.

He shook his head, “I understand your point, but I also have my own plans. There’s no rush to go to a big city; what I need to do now is lay a solid foundation…”

Principal Wang opened his mouth upon hearing this.

Then shook his head.

“Back in our day, we would’ve bent over backwards to go to a big city, and here you are…”

He couldn’t help but smirk.

“As long as you’ve made up your mind, it’s fine. In less than a year, life in the big cities will officially begin. You take this time to grow stronger, and then you can see who’s tougher when you compare yourself with the geniuses from those big places.”

Pei Jinye gave a strange look, “Do people from big cities all like that sort of thing?”

Is there really anyone in this world tougher than him?

Ha, I don’t believe it!
