283: It's so good to have you all.

Hearing the knock on the door, The two sisters, who were sitting in the Living Room chatting and waiting for Lin Zifeng to return, stood up at the same time.

Chen Yuxi walked quickly to the door and opened it fast. Seeing a drunken Lin Zifeng, she pulled him into the room, closed the door, and then said, "Husband, why did you drink so much? You smell like alcohol all over.

I haven't seen you drink this much in a long time."

"Besides that night a few years ago, this is the second time I've drunk this much.

The difference is, that night I was happy yet extremely terrified, afraid that you two sisters would directly send me in in the name of being strong."

Saying this, Lin Zifeng leaned his body against Chen Yuxi and, with her support, walked toward the Living Room.

Chen Yuxi helped Lin Zifeng sit on the sofa, and Chen Yuqing asked, "Zifeng, why did you drink so much? I've rarely seen you drink this much, except for that time a few years ago."

"Hahaha, I was happy tonight, so I drank a bit more."

Lin Zifeng laughed heartily and replied casually.

Hearing Lin Zifeng's reply, Chen Yuxi said, "Husband, you've had too much to drink. I'll help you take a bath. You'll feel more comfortable sleeping after a bath."

The two of them helped him to the bathroom door. Chen Yuqing let go of Lin Zifeng and said, "Yuxi, you take care of Zifeng. I'll go cook some Sober-Up Soup for him."

After saying this, Chen Yuqing walked toward the kitchen.

Chen Yuxi helped Lin Zifeng into the bathroom, prepared his pajamas for him, and then walked out.

Lin Zifeng took a refreshing cold shower. The feeling of intoxication dissipated a bit, and he felt much more comfortable. His head wasn't as dizzy anymore as he walked out of the bathroom wearing his pajamas.

Seeing only Chen Yuxi sitting in the Living Room waiting for him, with a bowl of Sober-Up Soup on the coffee table, he went over and sat down beside her.

Chen Yuxi picked up the Sober-Up Soup from the coffee table and said as she handed it to Lin Zifeng, "This is the Sober-Up Soup Sister prepared for you.

Sister has already gone to rest. Drink the Sober-Up Soup quickly. It's late; let's hurry up and go to rest too!"

Lin Zifeng took the Sober-Up Soup and gulped it down in one breath.

Looking at Chen Yuxi's beautiful large eyes gazing at him with deep affection, the uncontrollable spring-like desire already climbing to her brows, and the large area of fair, translucent skin exposed, he felt his mouth go dry.

So he stood up without hesitation, reached out and picked Chen Yuxi up from the sofa, gave her a fierce kiss on her sexy red lips, and strode toward the bedroom.

Three days passed in a flash. Lin Zifeng visited the Department of Transportation, the Department of Education, and the Provincial Development and Reform Commission. They were all quite straightforward; after he handed over the materials, they all promised the funds would be transferred to the Yushu County Finance Bureau's account within a week.

Lin Zifeng left Zhang Yuhao for last. Actually, Lin Zifeng didn't really want to face Zhang Yuhao alone, but for the sake of those two hundred million in funds, he had no choice but to go to the Provincial Department of Finance Office to find Zhang Yuhao.

So at nine o'clock in the morning, he arrived outside the gates of the Provincial Department of Finance. After stating his identity to the guard and completing the registration, he entered the lobby of the Department of Finance.

After explaining to the staff that he had an appointment with Director Zhang, a staff member led him upstairs.

The two of them arrived one after the other at the door of Zhang Yuhao's Office. The staff member knocked, and hearing a faint "come in" from inside, the staff member pushed open the door.

"Director Zhang, this Comrade says he has an appointment with you and has something to discuss."

"Alright, I understand. You may go."

The staff member turned and left, and only then did Zhang Yuhao stand up, walk around his desk, and approach Lin Zifeng.

Lin Zifeng hurried forward to meet him, shaking Zhang Yuhao's hand while saying, "Hello, Old Leader."

"Zifeng, you suddenly appeared at Director Li's dinner party a few days ago with so many people present; it wasn't convenient to talk then.

Now that it's just the two of us, let's be more casual! Come, have a seat."

As Zhang Yuhao spoke, he motioned Lin Zifeng toward the sofa.

After they sat down, Lin Zifeng took an application material out of his briefcase and handed it to Zhang Yuhao with both hands.

"Old Leader, this is our application material. Please have a look."

Zhang Yuhao took the application material and set it aside, saying with a smile, "I believe there won't be any problems with your application materials. We'll talk about this in a moment. Since we haven't seen each other for so long, let's catch up first!"

Lin Zifeng nodded with a smile and began chatting with him.

"Zifeng, you're quite something! Since I left Yushu County, in just over four short years, you've grown from the mayor of a poverty-stricken town into a County Party Secretary. This promotion speed is like riding a rocket!"

There was a hint of jealousy in Zhang Yuhao's tone.

"Old Leader, this is all because you gave me opportunities and mentored me in the past. Otherwise, how could I be where I am today?"

Lin Zifeng said modestly.

"Don't belittle yourself! Heping Town, which was ranked last in Yushu County, actually developed into one of the top ten towns in the province under your leadership. If you didn't have the ability yourself, no matter how many opportunities there were, you wouldn't have stood out."

Zhang Yuhao said this because after returning that night, he had looked up a lot of information regarding Yushu County and Lin Zifeng.

Because his departure from Yushu County back then was somewhat dishonorable, he hadn't followed Yushu County or Lin Zifeng since being transferred to the Provincial Department of Finance.

He didn't know until he checked, and the check gave him a shock. He didn't expect Yushu County to have undergone such massive changes in the past four years, and Lin Zifeng's political achievements were even more remarkable; he had already become a rising political star in Huanan Province.

"Old Leader, you flatter me. Isn't this also the result of the learning and influence I received while by your side?"

Lin Zifeng's mind was sharp; saying a few nice words and flattering Zhang Yuhao was no trouble at all.

Zhang Yuhao was indeed happy, and his smile became more natural. He said with a laugh, "Zifeng! I didn't realize a dragon was once crouching by my side! It seems you'll be surpassing me in the future!"

"Old Leader, you overpraise me."

Lin Zifeng found it hard to respond to that, so he just gave a perfunctory reply.

On the surface, Lin Zifeng didn't show any abnormality, but because they had once been County Magistrate and secretary, Zhang Yuhao unconsciously placed himself in a superior position when speaking to Lin Zifeng.

Due to the change in status and position, Lin Zifeng was no longer that little secretary who came and went at a beck and call. Therefore, being spoken to like this by Zhang Yuhao made him feel very uncomfortable.

Zhang Yuhao asked about the details of Yushu County's development over the past few years, and Lin Zifeng answered him by picking things that could be found in official records.

Lin Zifeng patiently chatted with Zhang Yuhao for over an hour before taking his leave.

Zhang Yuhao similarly promised that the funds would be transferred to the Yushu County Finance Bureau's account within a week and then saw Lin Zifeng out of the Office.

After the two shook hands and said goodbye, Lin Zifeng strode downstairs.
