Resurrection Empire

Chapter 663 249 Compound Review, Celebration Banquet [4400 words]_3

Ren Zhong frowned slightly.

He wasn't really interested in social obligations and such matters.

It's a complete waste of life.

Moreover, he knew that some people just wanted to make their "carrot" appear more attractive.

No wonder he's a professional secretary, Han Yaren was highly adept at reading expressions. On seeing Ren's demeanor, he immediately said, "Mr. Ren. The First Deputy Governor of Yangsheng City will attend the banquet to congratulate you. The value of the banquet isn't in the eating, drinking, and playing, but more importantly, it's a good social occasion. Even though we have the hibernation space now, there's still a layer of separation in the network, and face-to-face communication is valuable for strengthening relationships between strangers."

Ren Zhong's eyes opened slightly.

He was intrigued by this City Deputy Governor.

Although Ju Qingmeng had never urged him, he always remembered his promise.

Ju Qingmeng's parents were legal citizens of Chongyi County and were not registered in Liao Yuan County.

According to the usual rules, when Ju Qingmeng became a Third Level Citizen, she could have her parents apply to come to Starfire Town.

But since Ju Qingmeng refused to return to Chongyi County and Ren Zheng sternly rejected Wang Jinsou's "cozying up," Ju Qingmeng's parents, who should have retired, were transferred back to a temporary position and were not allowed to leave.

This was undoubtedly the handiwork of the thick-headed Wang Jinsou.

If Ren Zhong wanted to bring people over across regions, then the role of the Yangsheng City Deputy Governor became apparent.

So he immediately changed his stance, "Since the Governor has already nodded, it's not appropriate for me, a small businessman, to put on airs."

"Mr. Ren, you're being modest. You're now a prominent figure in the Yangsheng City rich list, not just a small businessman."

Ren Zhong: "Shall we depart then? Take my private airship?"

Han Yaren nodded in agreement, "Yes, I'll go out and inform everyone to prepare."

Ren Zhong gave a bow, "Thank you. By the way, can I bring a female companion?"

Han Yaren smiled knowingly and glanced at Chen Hanyu beside him and said, "Of course. But actually, according to banquet rules, even if you don't bring a female companion, as the hosts, we would provide one whose capabilities match yours. Wouldn't you like to try something new?"

Han Yaren spoke very frankly, not hiding anything, and did not avoid Chen Hanyu.

Ren Zhong glanced at the suddenly blushing and slightly indignant Chen Hanyu, shaking his head with a smile, "I'm nostalgic and not interested in trying new things. But the person I want to bring isn't my secretary."

He quietly winked at Chen Hanyu.

Chen Hanyu calmed down.

Han Yaren thought for a moment and then said in realization, "Are you planning to bring Manager Ju from the Starfire Town Military Weapon Store?"

Ren Zhong: "Exactly."

"It's a good idea, indeed an opportunity to solve Manager Ju's predicament. I will subtly inform the Governor."

"Thank you."

After Han Yaren walked out the door, Ren Zhong said to the slightly disappointed Chen Hanyu, "It's not a significant social occasion. You don't need to feel down, but if you like…"

Chen Hanyu shook her head, "I don't like it. I was just thinking that now that Yang Bingzhong is dead, I kind of want to restore my appearance."

Ren Zhong was taken aback, "If you feel more comfortable that way, I won't oppose it."

Chen Hanyu sighed again, "But this might cause trouble for you, Mr. Ren."

"Yes."

On Source Star, citizens seemed quite willing to share sex partners without romantic ties.

These people would also interpret others by their own standards.

Chen Hanyu was now Ren Zhong's "twenty-year long servant."

According to legal status, as long as it didn't endanger her life, he could trample on Chen Hanyu's dignity at will.

If she regained her true appearance, Ren Zhong bet that henceforth, whenever dealing with high-level citizens, there would be at least one of many who would propose a trade for the purpose of getting close to her.

His speculation was soon confirmed.

On the airship, Han Yaren proposed exchanging communication codes for "Dream Inn."

Presumably, she had accessed part of Ren Zhong's information using her county-level secretary authority and knew he was also a player of "Dream Inn."

Prior to this, Han Yaren had also informed Ren Zhong that she was married, further stating that her spouse was merely a genetic optimization match, with no emotional attachment.

She did not hide her own desires.

Ren Zhong had no choice but to say that although he played "Dream Inn," he already had a frequent contact in the game and wasn't interested in adding new friends at the moment.

...

At five in the afternoon, in a detached villa in the second ring of Liao Yuan County City, Ju Qingmeng, wearing a low-cut red evening gown, was spinning in front of the mirror.

She smiled brightly, turning to ask Ren Zhong, who was in a suit beside her, "How is it? Does it look good?"

Ren Zhong gave a thumbs-up, "Beautiful, but..."

"But what?"

"The chest is too exposed."

"Oh, then I'll change."

Soon she came out in a more conservative but equally body-hugging evening gown, "How about now?"

"Just right."

At this moment, Ju Qingmeng had no awareness of Ren Zhong's real intention and thought it was for another purpose.

Although she had never had the qualifications to attend high-end banquets before, she knew what kind of style those banquets had.

The unique Ren Zhong wasn't willing to accept the female companion arranged by others, taking herself could serve as a shield.

But this shield experience could legitimize her status.

This was her first time appearing in public as Ren Zhong's "lover."

She was very satisfied with this and very much looking forward to it.

From now on, in Yangsheng City, her identity was no longer the genius gunsmith that the mad Wang Jinsou desired yet couldn't obtain and was oppressed but was now Ren Zhong's "lover," who was like the rising sun.
