In the reborn era, the lucky bag is enjoying the show in the factory area.

Section Chief Xing arrived quickly, knocking on the door and entering within two minutes. Upon seeing that Xi Beizhan and Luo Yu were also there, he became less anxious.

The fact that this couple could go to Director Hao's office and have tea in peace proves that nothing serious has happened.

Section Chief Xing glared at Xi Beizhan and gestured for him to pour water.

Xi Beizhan smiled and nodded, "Alright, you're the boss, I have to curry favor with you. Come on, Section Chief Xing, let's have a drink!"

Section Chief Xing rolled his eyes at Xi Beizhan, "You're being silly!"

He took the tea, sipped it, and his eyes lit up. "Jasmine tea! This rich aroma is like this year's new tea. And chrysanthemums? Such big flowers, I rarely see them!"

Director Hao raised his chin smugly, "You guessed right, this year's new tea, this chrysanthemum is still from... ah, it's alright, nothing special."

Manager Hao suddenly remembered that there were two bandits in the office, and quickly stopped talking.

Unfortunately, it was too late; Xi Beizhan had already put the tea bag into Luo Yu's cloth bag.

Seeing his tea leaves disappear again, Mine Manager Hao was furious!

He was just one step away from saving his tea.

To prevent those two rascals from trying to steal his tea again, he specially replaced the tea canister with a kraft paper bag to show that the tea was cheap and not worth stealing. But he was careless and they still managed to get their hands on it.

Luo Yu calmly put the cloth bag aside, picked up the teacup, and took a big gulp. "Delicious!"

Director Hao's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets as he stared at Luo Yu in disbelief.

This child has been corrupted by Xi Beizhan; he knows how to upset him now.

Seeing the regretful look on Mine Manager Hao's face, Section Chief Xing knew that Xi Beizhan and Luo Yu had taken advantage of him quite a bit. In order to save his subordinate and brother, he also bought half a bag of tea. Section Chief Xing quickly asked, "Uncle Hao, did you call me up here for something?"

Just as Mine Manager Hao was thinking about how to get the tea back, Section Chief Xing's question interrupted his train of thought. He immediately replied, "It was Bei Zhan and his wife. They came back from lunch and asked me if I knew anything about Xiao Wei's situation. I haven't seen him for days, so how would I know what he's doing? You usually have a lot of contact with Xiao Wei, so I asked you to come up and ask him."

Upon hearing that the question was about Xiao Wei, Section Chief Xing immediately took it to heart. After thinking for a moment, he said, "You know what, if you hadn't asked, I wouldn't have noticed. Now that I think about it, it seems like he's been acting a bit strange lately."

Manager Hao became interested and leaned forward. "Tell me, what's going on? Are you homesick? Or are you seeing someone?"

Section Chief Xing thought for a moment and shook his head. "It doesn't seem like he's homesick. I haven't heard him mention Lao Wei. He probably has a girlfriend."

After listening, Mine Manager Hao looked at Xi Beizhan and Luo Yu, "What about you two? What did you see? Tell me."

Xi Beizhan smiled and said, "That must be how it is. I was wondering."

My husband and I had just come out of the state-run restaurant today when we saw Xiao Wei walking side by side with a girl. Although they were a little distance apart, they were talking as they walked. From behind, I saw Xiao Wei even smiling at the girl.

You all know what kind of person Xiao Wei is. Would he smile at a girl?

He didn't smile at us at all, his face was stern like an old man's. I never saw him smile at the girl.

After Xi Beizhan finished speaking, he leaned back on the sofa, his face full of smugness.

Mine Manager Hao and Section Chief Xing exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with disdain.

It's not like you've ever smiled at any girl. Apart from your wife, which girl do you meet without a long face, like she owes you a thousand or eight hundred dollars?

How many girls have you scared away with that performance?

With Luo Yu around, Mine Manager Hao and Section Chief Xing didn't complain about Xi Beizhan, because they were now more interested in Xiao Wei.

"So, that kid has finally come to his senses? He has a girlfriend now?"

Mine Manager Hao narrowed his eyes. "If it's true, that would be wonderful. Old Wei will finally be able to hold his grandson."

Section Chief Xing nodded with a smile, "I've told Lao Wei so many times to come to the city, but he just won't come. If Xiao Wei really has a girlfriend, marriage is just a matter of time. Once he has a grandson, he won't be able to refuse to come."

If he doesn't come, we'll bring him here so he can go to town to see his grandson.

Mine Manager Hao nodded. "I think it's a good idea."

Xi Beizhan continued, "With a grandson, Uncle Wei will definitely come to the city, and I will go to pick him up then."

"Okay, I'll leave this to you."

Section Chief Xing smiled and took another sip of tea, his eyes full of joy.

Xiao Wei's marriage has always been a major concern for him, Mine Manager Hao, and Secretary Chang. They care about Xiao Wei no less than they care about Xi Beizhan. It's just that Xiao Wei is too honest and doesn't make a fuss like Xi Beizhan, nor does he have the same thick skin, so they pay less attention to him.

“With Bei Zhan’s rank being raised, it’s time for Xiao Wei to get a move too. Now that he has a wife by his side, he’ll have to think about his family, right? He won’t be so obedient then.”

Manager Hao narrowed his eyes, revealing a cunning look. He didn't hide his plans from the three of them at all. Anyway, everyone in the room was one of his own, so he wasn't afraid of them knowing his ambitions.

Section Chief Xing nodded. "I'll tell Uncle Chang later that we should entrust the wedding arrangements to him. It would be perfect if he could act as the matchmaker."

The Party Secretary of Wulong Mine acted as their introducer; that's quite a prestigious position, isn't it?

Xi Beizhan curled his lips, "He's not young anymore. When my wife and I got married, we didn't need Uncle Chang as our matchmaker. So it seems you guys are still more on Xiao Wei's side."

Section Chief Xing and Mine Manager Hao both rolled their eyes, and no one paid him any attention.

Seeing this, Xi Beizhan snorted coldly, glared at the two of them with displeasure, put down his teacup, and pulled Luo Yu away.

After the two left, Mine Manager Hao and Section Chief Xing lowered their heads and whispered, "Old Jin's side is almost done. Go to Old Jin's place a couple more times later. After the New Year, you will be transferred to the Armed Forces Department."

Before the New Year, promote Bei Zhan to a higher rank and let him work as a deputy section chief for a while. You can mentor him.

This kid is smart, but too lazy. While you're still at the mine, keep an eye on him and don't let him keep running off to the Women's Federation.

Xiao Luo is a good kid and smart. He is highly regarded by Lao Xu and will be promoted next year.

These two children can't be promoted at the same time; they have to go one after the other, so as not to give anyone a handle to use against them.

Section Chief Xing nodded. "Alright, I'll take care of this. I'll talk to Uncle Chang later and tell him to make a few more trips to the city to keep an eye on those old foxes there, so that we don't end up paving the way and then having them reap the rewards."

Mine Manager Hao looked at Section Chief Xing with a smile, "You really treat Bei Zhan like your own brother. You'd give anything for him."

Section Chief Xing gave a bitter laugh and leaned back wearily in his chair. "If Xi Nanzheng were still alive, would I need to pave the way for him? His brother would have already arranged his future."

What I'm doing now is only half of what Xi Nanzheng can do; it's still far from perfect.

Mentioning Xi Nanzheng, Mine Manager Hao's eyes showed sorrow, and his eyes instantly welled up with tears.

Neither of them spoke again, reminiscing about their "children and brothers".
