Title: Reborn in Handong, Starting with an Investment in Gao Yuliang

"Of course, of course."

Chen Qing readily agreed.

Chen Qing's goal was far more than just staying at Handong University as a junior lecturer.

His relationship with Liang Lu was just the first step.

However, although Liang Lu is a member of the Liang family, she is ultimately just a counselor.

Now Chen Qing doesn't know any of the other members of the Liang family.

For him, it would be great if he could get to know more locals in Jingzhou, especially rich second-generation people like Zhang Wei and Zhao Ming.

This will only benefit his future development.

"Zhang Wei, which classmate have you taken a liking to? As long as it's within my ability, I'll definitely do my best to help."

"Thank you in advance, Teacher Chen!"

Zhang Wei was overjoyed and quickly picked up his wine glass.

"Come on, let's raise a glass to Teacher Chen!"

After several rounds of drinks and five courses of food,

The atmosphere in the private room grew increasingly lively.

Under the deliberate flattery and praise of Zhang Wei and Zhao Ming.

Chen Qing gradually became somewhat complacent.

Alcohol numbed his vigilance, causing him to completely shed his usual refined and gentlemanly facade.

"Teacher Chen, you are truly young and promising."

Zhao Ming gave a thumbs up, his face full of admiration.

"So young and already a lecturer at Handong University, and I heard they're going to be promoted to associate professor soon? Their future is limitless!"

Chen Qing's face was flushed from drinking. Hearing this, he waved his hand, speaking modestly, but he couldn't hide the smugness on his face.

"Sigh, what limitless future? It's just about making a living."

"However, this time the associate professor position should be a sure thing."

"Oh?"

Zhang Wei feigned surprise, "Teacher Chen, are you so confident? Do you have some connections?"

Chen Qing smiled mysteriously and lowered his voice.

"I wouldn't call it connections, I just know a few people."

He picked up his glass, took a sip, and said slowly.

"I'm afraid it will scare you if I tell you."

My girlfriend is from the Liang family.

"The Liang family?"

Zhang Wei and Zhao Ming exchanged a glance, their faces showing just the right amount of confusion.

"There are many people with the surname Liang in Jingzhou. I wonder which Liang family Teacher Chen is referring to?"

This is exactly the effect Chen Qing wanted.

That's exactly what he wanted in front of others.

The thrill of inadvertently revealing one's powerful background.

Setting down his wine glass, Chen Qing leaned forward slightly and spoke in a boastful tone.

"Handong Province, Liang Qunfeng."

"hiss!"

Zhang Wei and Zhao Ming both gasped, their faces showing shock.

Liang Qunfeng!

He is a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission of Handong Province!

This is a very important figure standing at the very top of the pyramid in Handong Province!

"Teacher Chen, you...you're not joking, are you?" Zhao Ming's tongue was tied.

Why would I lie to you?

Chen Qing's vanity was greatly satisfied.

He leaned back in his chair, a look of arrogance on his face that suggested he was in complete control.

"My girlfriend, Liang Lu, is Secretary Liang's daughter."

"She's now a counselor at Handong University, and she's completely devoted to me."

"Let me tell you, that woman is incredibly stupid."

Chen Qing's lips curled into a contemptuous smile, his words filled with disdain.

"She's not very bright and craves love. I can easily win her over with a few sweet words and empty promises."

"Does she really think I'm head over heels in love with her?"

"If it weren't for the fact that her father is Liang Qunfeng, I would find it annoying to even look at her."

Chen Qing took another sip of wine, his voice filled with undisguised calculation.

"I had already planned it all out. In a while, I'll get her pregnant."

"By then, once the deed is done, she'll be a young, unmarried woman, and the daughter of a leading cadre. She won't be able to afford to lose face."

"For the sake of their reputation, the Liang family has no choice but to reluctantly accept me as their son-in-law, right?"

Chen Qing became more and more excited as he spoke, as if he could already see his future of great success.

"Once I become the Liang family's son-in-law, forget about being an associate professor; the entire Handong University will have to defer to me, won't they?"

"When the time comes, my two brothers, if you need anything, just let me know. In this small corner of Jingzhou, there's nothing I, Chen Qing, can't handle!"

Chen Qing's voice echoed in the private room, filled with greed and shamelessness.

Zhang Wei and Zhao Ming's expressions were stiff.

A hint of disgust and coldness flashed deep in his eyes.

But they still play the role of sycophants.

"Teacher Chen is brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!"

"That was a brilliant move, cutting off their supply lines! We brothers are absolutely in awe!"

.....

Separated by a screen.

They are two completely different worlds.

In the next private room.

The color was slowly fading from Liang Lu's face.

She was initially puzzled when she heard Chen Qing's voice.

They assumed that Chen Qing had just happened to come to this Western restaurant with his friends.

Liang Lu also planned to go find Chen Qing later and ask him not to be angry with her anymore.

Little did I expect that this would happen so soon.

Then she heard something she couldn't believe.

Just then.

The steak served by the waiter smelled incredibly tempting.

But to Liang Lu at that moment, the smell only made her feel nauseous.

Every word Chen Qing uttered was like a poisoned steel needle, piercing her heart.

That gentle and talented gentleman in her heart.

The man she thought she could entrust her life to.

At that moment, next door, they were outlining how to scheme against her and exploit her "grand plan".

That ugly face.

More disgusting than the devil.

It turns out that everything was fake.

Those vows of eternal love, tenderness and consideration, those so-called "endurance for the sake of the future."

It was all a lie carefully woven by Chen Qing.

She was just a stepping stone for the other side to climb up.

A tool that can be used and then thrown away.

Even Liang Lu's feelings and physical health were within Chen Qing's calculations.

"So stupid..."

"He's not very bright..."

"Even looking at her is annoying..."

Chen Qing's harsh and vicious words.

It echoed repeatedly in Liang Lu's mind.

Like a dull knife, it cut at her dignity again and again.

Liang Lu's body began to tremble uncontrollably.

It felt as if I had fallen into an ice cave.

Tears silently slid down from the corners of her eyes, dripping onto the pristine white tablecloth and leaving a small, damp stain.

The whole world collapsed at that moment.

Liang Cheng looked at Liang Lu quietly.

Watching her go from initial disbelief to shock, and then to despair and collapse.

His face was completely expressionless.

His eyes were as calm as a deep pool of water.

It's just an appetizer.

The real show is yet to come.

......

Just then.

The door to the next private room was suddenly pushed open from the outside.

A loud bang interrupted Chen Qing's boastful talk.

"Chen Qing! You heartless bastard!"

A shrill female voice rang out, filled with anger and resentment.

A stylishly dressed young woman rushed in and headed straight for Chen Qing.

Chen Qing was startled by this sudden turn of events, and the alcohol instantly sobered him up considerably.

Make sure you can see who it is.

His face immediately turned ugly.

"Zhou Li? What brings you here?"

This woman was a student Chen Qing had taught before.

The two had a flirtatious relationship.

However, the other person had already graduated, and the two of them lost contact.
