Lin Chen was also quick to take advantage of the situation and simply took maternity leave to go home and take care of his wife during her postpartum period.

The senior officers have all been demoted, but the action team members are in a terrible situation! After all, they were the ones who did the beating. Tong Zhi and Da Zhuang, along with six others, have all been punished by being made to clean toilets.

The person who assaulted someone was fined six months, and the person who helped with the ladder was fined three months. Now everyone in Jiudaowanzi is cursing Officer Wang as a scourge… Why isn't this powerful figure coming out to bail them out?!

Staff Officer Wang and District Chief Song cursed the people of Jiudaowanzi, calling them all idiots for beating a complete stranger to death. They said they were incredibly unlucky to have ended up like this.

After finishing his work, Lin Chen went straight to his uncle's house in the West District. The Li family was determined not to show their faces. Lin Chen wasn't going to waste any more time waiting for them...

The question now is what will become of Li Yuanchao after Lao Li is transferred. Will he still be the eldest brother among the children of high-ranking officials? Will he still be able to become the CEO of a large company?

Lin Chen had just parked his car when he ran into an acquaintance, Zhou Xiaobai's father, Zhou Zhennan. Moreover, the person with him was someone Lin Chen was meeting for the first time…

The two stopped when they saw Lin Chen.

"Secretary Lin, what a coincidence!"

After getting out of the car, Lin Chen took the initiative to shake hands with him...

"Commander Zhou, hello!"

After shaking hands lightly, Zhou Zhennan introduced his good friend to Lin Chen.

"Secretary Lin, this is Director Hao from Jiangliao Province. He's in Beijing for a meeting these days. We used to be old partners!"

Lin Chen had just recognized the other person as Hao Dongmei's father, but he was not the governor yet, only the director of the provincial department.

"Director Hao, hello!"

This time, it was Lin Chen who took the initiative to step forward and shake hands with the other person...

"Hello, Secretary Lin! I've long heard that our Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill has a youngest secretary. Seeing is believing! It's true that heroes have emerged from among the young since ancient times."

Lin Chen didn't care what the other party said, but ever since Zheng Juan entered Beijing, Lin Chen knew that the Hao family would show up sooner or later.

Now that Luo Shibin has moved into the courtyard house, it means that Hao Dongmei, who is known as "the best in bed," will come here sooner or later.

"Thank you for the compliment, Director Hao. Actually, I'm just a primary school student in front of you. There's still a lot I need to learn... I'll definitely pay you a visit in person next time I'm on a business trip to Jiangliao Province."

"Okay, okay, it's a deal!"

Who wouldn't want to befriend the miracle doctor? It was just that the Li family couple, in their overprotectiveness, lost their reason.

After exchanging pleasantries, Zhou Zhennan glanced at the guards not far away and then lowered his voice.

"Secretary Lin, when do you have some time? I'd like to invite Lao Zhang and the three of us to get together. Lao Zhang can treat us..."

Zhong Zhengguo had asked Uncle Lin to pass on a message yesterday, saying that his uncle wanted to treat everyone. Lin Chen declined, but now Zhou Zhennan has come to invite him again. Naturally, Lin Chen wouldn't refuse this time…

"How about Saturday night? I'm going to Tianjin Port in the next few days, and we can have drinks together when I get back. Is Director Hao going back to Jiangliao soon? How about we go and give Chief of Staff Zhang a good beating then?"

Lin Chen is now a division-level officer, so not just anyone can get him to do anything. Even with a military-level bigwig like Zhou Zhennan, Lin Chen would have to consider his own mood and whether the other party was of any use to him.

Now that Hao Dongmei's father has appeared, we should try to build a closer relationship with him beforehand.

Director Hao was originally scheduled to return to Jiangliao tomorrow night, but since Lin Chen has invited him, he will naturally stay.

Despite being the director of a provincial department, his connections in Beijing are far less effective than Lin Chen's. In fact, they're practically incomparable...

"Okay, it's a deal. We'll wait for you to come back from your business trip..."

Director Hao and his wife, Jin Yueji, lost two sons during the war, which would be a major problem for most people. But for Lin Chen, it wasn't difficult; as long as the two boys were alive, Lin Chen could find them.

However, Lin Chen then recalled Hao Dongmei falling into the well and began to complain in his mind.

A provincial government office director actually sent his only daughter to work in the countryside; the couple is really something else.

Lin Chen knew they were helpless; after all, Old Hao would also be sweeping the streets in the future. They simply couldn't protect their daughter...

Zhou Zhennan and Director Hao watched Lin Chen stride into the leader's courtyard, both filled with envy.

This isn't a place anyone can just cross. Director Hao waited two days in Beijing before getting a number. And even then, he had to be accompanied by Zhou Zhennan; otherwise, even the top leader might not have time to see him.

Lin Chen didn't need to apply for an appointment at all, and he didn't even need a guard to let him in! The difference is obvious!

"Old Zhou, isn't it a coincidence that I ran into Secretary Lin here today? He even invited me to have a drink with you guys?"

Director Hao and Zhou Zhennan used to be partners; one was a brigade commander and the other a brigade political commissar. Their relationship was quite close…

"Old Hao, I'm starting to suspect that you might have known this person before?"

Director Hao chuckled and waved his hand: "If I knew him, I wouldn't have asked you to come with me! Old Zhou, you said you could ask Secretary Lin to help you get things done in Dalian in a couple of days?"

Zhou Zhennan nodded slightly, feeling that this matter seemed quite feasible; the leader had only said he would consider it. If Lin Chen could put in a good word for him, it would definitely be a success!

"I think that's a good idea. It's not easy for you three to come all the way to Beijing. Why not stay a few more days? It'll be a good opportunity for Xiaobai to take Dongmei around and show her the sights..."

The two families have a good relationship, so naturally their children get along well. The only issue now is that Hao Dongmei is not yet an adult…

After Lin Chen arrived at his uncle's living room, his personal care specialist immediately brought him fresh tea.

"Why are you suddenly showing up here? You usually only come when I call you. Why don't you have some food with me before you leave?"

Lin Chen pretended to be in a hurry and drank the whole bowl of tea in one gulp...

"It's extremely urgent, Uncle, please take a look at this. The Lou family intercepted information overseas that someone is plotting to seize our islands and reefs!"

As the saying goes, everyone loves their own child, and Lin Chen came here precisely because he knew that.

Whether or not someone tries to seize it is entirely up to Lin Chen...

"Is that really true? Have they lost their minds?"

Lin Chen had already taken out the encrypted telegram he had prepared in advance...

"How could this be fake? You can see for yourself. Little Liu, could you get me another glass of water?"

Before Xiao Liu even entered the living room, the leader handed his teacup to Lin Chen.

"I haven't drunk any, you drink first! Stay calm when things happen, that's how you handle big things in the future. Don't be impulsive..."

Lin Chen really didn't want to drink the other person's drink; she wasn't a young woman, and she was genuinely not used to it.

"No, no, no, I'll wait for Xiao Liu to bring me another drink!"

At this moment, the commander glared at him, and Lin Chen immediately accepted it with a grin. He hadn't expected to overact! The other party genuinely believed he was thirsty.

"Uncle, please don't misunderstand. I was just worried you wouldn't have any to drink. It wasn't that I was looking down on you..."
