Siheyuan: After becoming a traitor, first let the Huai Ru River overflow its banks.

If you really don't acknowledge it, how will you survive in the steel mill and establish yourself in the courtyard house?

Li Jianjun walked up to Sha Zhu, now in a victor's pose.

"Silly Zhu, then kneel down now, and scream now."

Sha Zhu was forced to join the Liangshan bandits. With a determined heart, he closed his eyes and knelt down on the ground with a thud.

"father."

This shout made everyone present laugh.

Ran Qiurui, in particular, noticed Li Jianjun.

There's no way around it, Li Jianjun's looks are just too outstanding; he's the kind of person who shines even in a crowd.

Li Jianjun happily agreed.

"Oh, my good son. Kneel down again, and I'll protect you from now on."

Li Jianjun is usually very serious at the factory.

Even now, he looks very serious, but the onlookers burst out laughing.

"Shazhu, that good son of mine, has finally agreed to kneel down."

"Li Jianjun, you're so lucky! You've got such a chubby, healthy son for free, and he can even make money for you. Isn't that wonderful?"

"It's just that your daughter-in-law is a bit too old, so the father-in-law can't do incestuous things."

They were referring to Jia Zhangshi.

Li Jianjun almost threw up his leftover dinner from the night before.

"Haha, that old hag, just let me go. Sha Zhu is even planning to divorce her."

Isn't that right?

This farce has come to an end.

Sha Zhu had already knelt down and called out to his father, but he felt his dignity being trampled on by Li Jianjun.

"Li Jianjun, don't get cocky. I'm not done with you yet."

Even kneeling down and calling him "father" didn't soften Sha Zhu's tone at all.

This brat is still stubbornly arguing.

Li Jianjun wasn't worried about that; if the child misbehaved, he could just give him a beating later.

However, Sha Zhu is the war god of the courtyard, so Li Jianjun needs to improve his physical indicators.

The senior leader saw Li Jianjun and was very impressed with the young man, gesturing for him to sit down.

"Young man, you must be Li Jianjun. Come and sit down and have a meal."

Even Zhao Xiaofeng started currying favor with Li Jianjun. These authentic Tan family dishes, even the young men could make them.

If I ever crave it again in the future, I'll have to ask Li Jianjun for help.

"Yes, Jianjun. Come sit down and eat with us."

The three foreigners realized that Li Jianjun had cooked the meal, and they couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.

"Fantastic. Fantastic."

Unable to refuse their hospitality, Li Jianjun had no choice but to sit down and have a meal with them.

This was also the first time he had tasted the Tan family cuisine he had made himself, and he had to admit, the cuisine left by his ancestors was truly remarkable.

He simply followed the instructions, and he never expected it to taste so good.

The most famous private restaurants in Beijing are the Duan Family Cuisine, which is associated with the military; the Wang Family Cuisine, which is associated with the finance sector; and the Ren Family Cuisine, which is associated with the banking sector.

Unfortunately, as time went by, all three cuisines eventually disappeared.

Only Tan Family Cuisine has fully inherited and carried forward this tradition.

With this unique skill, even if Li Jianjun didn't become an employee of Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill and instead worked as a cook in a restaurant, he wouldn't starve.

This illustrates the principle that having many skills is never a burden.

They quickly finished their meal and drinks, and Director Yang naturally did not forget his promise to Li Jianjun.

In front of the top leader and the other three experts, Director Yang announced his decision.

"Jianjun, I hereby appoint you as the head of the security department of Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill."

Li Jianjun was also very excited. He had been promoted from deputy section chief to section chief in one fell swoop. The system deserves a lot of credit for this.

For an ordinary person, it takes a long time to go from deputy section chief to section chief.

With the system's assistance, he completed the transformation from deputy section chief to section chief in less than two months.

"Thank you, Director Yang. I will definitely do my best in my job from now on."

"Director Yang, to thank you for your promotion and recognition, I would like to offer you a toast."

Li Jianjun picked up his wine glass and, taking advantage of the situation, drank a glass with Director Yang.

During this process, Ran Qiurui stared intently at Li Jianjun, somewhat mesmerized.

This was the first time in her life she had ever seen such a handsome man.

Her heart was pounding so hard that she didn't even realize it herself; this was what the book called love at first sight.

From her angle, Li Jianjun's long legs were crossed, and his chiseled features were simply irresistible to any girl.

Despite having attended university and being surrounded by countless handsome men, Ran Qiurui was still amazed by Li Jianjun's good looks.

It's worth noting that Ran Qiurui was the most beautiful girl at Harbin Institute of Technology, and she had quite a few boys pursuing her.

But a man as handsome as Li Jianjun is truly a first.

The key point is that Li Jianjun is not only handsome, but he has also been promoted to section chief, making him a truly promising young man.

Moreover, Li Jianjun is very generous and poised in his interactions with others, and he is also skilled in cooking Tan family cuisine.

This truly moved Ran Qiurui.

If I could marry a man like that, I could eat Tan family cuisine every day. How wonderful that would be!

Unbeknownst to her, Ran Qiurui's face turned red.

However, the leaders present were so engrossed in enjoying the Tan family cuisine that they failed to notice Ran Qiurui's unusual condition.

After calming herself down, Ran Qiurui decided to get Li Jianjun's attention first.

She wasn't interested in any of the many men who pursued her, but this man was exactly her type and met her standards for a boyfriend.

If we don't seize this opportunity now, someone else will beat us to it.

"Is this Deputy Section Chief Li? I am a graduate of Harbin Institute of Technology. My name is Ran Qiurui."

"Congratulations on your promotion to section chief. May I have the honor of toasting Section Chief Li?"

As soon as Li Jianjun turned around, he saw this girl who looked like an angel.

He was so busy talking to the three foreigners that he didn't notice the beautiful girl next to the big boss.

No wonder.

While Li Jianjun was exchanging ideas with the three experts, Ran Qiurui had already told the senior leader that she was going to the workshop alone to investigate other data.

Upon seeing Ran Qiurui, Li Jianjun was also captivated by her beauty.

However, Li Jianjun seemed to spot a resemblance to Ran Qiuye in her eyes and brows.

Besides, their names are so similar.

"Of course, come on, let's have a drink, Miss Ran."

When a beautiful woman takes the initiative to show her affection, Li Jianjun naturally won't refuse. He picked up his wine glass and drank it all with Ran Qiurui.

The presence of this beautiful woman at the dinner table livened things up considerably.

A high-achieving and beautiful girl like Ran Qiurui was a rare sight in this era.

Li Jianjun sized up Ran Qiurui. She was 80% similar to Ran Qiuye, but her skin was fairer and her eyes were watery, as if they could speak.

"Little Li, the Tan family cuisine you made today is so authentic, absolutely authentic."

While eating, the senior leader kept praising Li Jianjun's culinary skills.

"This is even closer to the authentic Tan family cuisine than the one made by He Daqing."

This is extremely high praise for Li Jianjun.

Zhao Xiaofeng chimed in, echoing the sentiment.

"The big leader is right. This kind of authentic Tan family cuisine is only served at state-level banquets for foreign guests."

Zhao Xiaofeng had the privilege of dining with national leaders, so he naturally became very familiar with the taste of Tan Family Cuisine.

"Not at all, you flatter me, leaders. From now on, whenever you want to eat Tan Family Cuisine, I, Xiao Li, am happy to cook it for you."

Li Jianjun's words were exactly what Zhao Xiaofeng and the top leader wanted to hear.

The two men smiled at each other, raised their glasses, and drank another glass with Li Jianjun.

The leader drank it all in one gulp, thinking that this young man was not only a great cook but also good at reading people, truly a rare talent.

However, the astute leader also noticed that although Li Jianjun was talking to the two of them, he was glancing at Ran Qiurui out of the corner of his eye.

The two were about the same age and both were very good-looking. They looked particularly pleasing to the eye sitting at the same table.

Since Li Jianjun had agreed to cook Tan Family Cuisine for him, even though he was a high-ranking official, he still understood basic social etiquette.

"Little Li, how old are you this year? Are you engaged?"

Li Jianjun was taken aback. Following the leader's gaze, he saw Ran Qiurui and immediately understood.

"No, no, I'm only 20 years old. Let's talk about it in a couple of years."

For some reason, Ran Qiurui, who was sitting to the side, suddenly blushed.
