Nominal: My senior brothers are all big shots
Chapter 2 Sister-in-law Liang Lu
"Go ahead and call," Lin Feng said nonchalantly, "but before you call security, I have to remind you—the top button of your shirt isn't buttoned up properly. It's not very appropriate to go in for an interview like that, is it?"
The girl instinctively lowered her head, then blushed and quickly turned away to tidy up. Taking advantage of this moment, Lin Feng caught a glimpse of the name on the cover of the document in her hand—Su Wanqing.
"Su Wanqing," Lin Feng read the name aloud, "a nice name."
Su Wanqing had finished straightening her clothes. She turned around and looked at Lin Feng warily. "How do you know my name?"
"It's written on your documents," Lin Feng pointed to the materials in her hand, "Su Wanqing, you're here for an interview at the Guangming District Government... Let me guess, are you a recent graduate? Taking the civil service exam?"
Su Wanqing pursed her lips, clearly not wanting to say anything more to Lin Feng. "Please move aside, I'm really going to be late."
This time, Lin Feng didn't stop her and stepped aside to let her pass. Su Wanqing walked quickly past him, but after a few steps, she suddenly stopped, turned back to look at Lin Feng, her eyes filled with complex emotions.
"You..." Su Wanqing hesitated, unable to finish her sentence.
"What about me?" Lin Feng asked with a smile.
"Are you here for an interview too?" Su Wanqing glanced at Lin Feng's clothes, then shook her head, dismissing the idea. "No, impossible."
"Why is it impossible?" Lin Feng asked with great interest.
Su Wanqing did not answer, but simply shook her head and turned to walk quickly into the government building.
Lin Feng stood there, watching her figure disappear through the door, a playful smile playing on his lips. When Lin Feng returned to his car, Qi Tongwei was looking at him with a probing expression.
"What acquaintance? How come I didn't know you had any female acquaintances in Jingzhou?" Qi Tongwei asked.
"We just met," Lin Feng said, fastening his seatbelt. "An interesting young lady."
Qi Tongwei shook his head and restarted the car. "You're still so irresponsible. But I have to remind you, this isn't the military base. Watch your words and actions."
"I know, Director Qi," Lin Feng replied lazily, his gaze once again fixed on the government building.
As the car drove away, Lin Feng took one last look at the Guangming District Government Building through the car window. Little did he know, behind a window on the third floor, Su Wanqing was standing there, watching the black sedan disappear into the distance, her brows slightly furrowed, lost in thought.
"Wanqing, are you ready? You're next," a staff member came over and reminded her.
Su Wanqing snapped out of her daze and nodded. "Ready."
Su Wanqing walked to the corridor outside the interview room and took a few deep breaths. Yesterday was her father's fifty-fifth birthday, and she had taken a day off to return to Beijing. This morning, she rushed back to Handong for the interview.
Su Wanqing's father is a leader in a ministry, but she has never mentioned this identity to outsiders. Even when applying for the civil service exam, she deliberately chose Handong Province, which is far from the capital, just so she wouldn't be treated specially.
My phone vibrated. It was a message from Su Wanqing's mother: "Good luck with your interview. I'll be waiting for your message tonight."
Su Wanqing replied with a smiley face and put her phone on silent. She gathered her thoughts, banishing the image of the strange man in camouflage from her mind. The most important thing now was the interview; it was her first step towards independence.
"Xiao Feng, after you come down the mountain this time, you'll be going back to Qijia Village, right? Ever since you went to university in Beijing and brought your aunt there, you haven't been back for a long time." Qi Tongwei asked Lin Feng in the car.
"We should go back and take a look; it has indeed been many years," Lin Feng said.
"You should have taken your aunt home to visit when you retired last year. The villagers miss you all. But you went straight back to the mountains," Qi Tongwei nodded.
"No rush. It's been a long time since we brothers have seen each other. I plan to stay here for a while and enjoy this wonderful world." Lin Feng said with a cheeky smile.
"Well, you should stay a little longer, I'll make the arrangements," Qi Tongwei said helplessly.
"Now that I'm on your turf, if you don't make arrangements, who will? By the way, where am I staying tonight? It's been a long time since I've seen my sister-in-law." Lin Feng had only seen Liang Lu once before, on Qi Tongwei's wedding day.
"How about we have dinner at home tonight? We brothers can have a good drink together. There are rooms at home, so we can just sleep there. What do you think? Your sister-in-law has been talking about you a lot," Qi Tongwei asked.
"I'm happy to have a drink, but you can arrange another place for me to stay. I'm not really comfortable staying at your place," Lin Feng chuckled.
"Alright, I'll listen to you," Qi Tongwei said, shaking his head.
The two remained silent for the rest of the time, and Qi Tongwei drove quietly.
Lin Feng looked out the car window, his gaze wandering. The plot in this timeline should be starting by now.
Lin Feng was originally a corporate slave who worked hard every day, but by chance, he transmigrated into the world of "In the Name of the People" and became Qi Tongwei's cousin. Moreover, he was weak and sickly since childhood, and the doctor said he would not live past eighteen.
In Lin Feng's memory, he was always lying on his sickbed, struggling to breathe. It was this Director Qi who repeatedly stood in front of him and drove away the children who mocked his sickly appearance.
Just when Lin Feng's mother was in despair, a mysterious old Taoist priest passed by the village. Seeing Lin Feng's pitiful state, he took him as his disciple, brought him back to the mountain to recuperate, and then taught Lin Feng some martial arts skills.
After several years, Lin Feng's physical abilities had improved to the point that he could take on several burly men who were eight feet tall.
After graduating from university, Lin Feng decided to join the army. He won the military region's martial arts competition every year and his team performed missions perfectly. Later, he even joined the Dragon Soul.
Dragon Soul is the most mysterious special forces unit in the military. All the people in it are professional soldiers, killing machines, the kings of soldiers. The selection of personnel is carried out from the military regions across the country, one in ten thousand. You can imagine how capable this kid is that he was able to get into it.
Later on, whenever there were any major events held by the central government, he was always assigned to lead the security team.
The car drove for about an hour and then stopped in a residential area. This was Qi Tongwei's home. The decoration wasn't luxurious, but it exuded a sense of calm and taste.
"We're here, get out." Qi Tongwei turned off the engine and got out of the car first.
"The director is something else, this neighborhood must be expensive," Lin Feng joked as he got out of the car.
"Stop being so cheeky. My father-in-law gave us some money. Let's go, your sister-in-law has prepared a meal at home." Qi Tongwei sighed helplessly. How come he never noticed how cheeky Lin Feng was when they were kids?
"Having a father-in-law is great, I'm so envious," Lin Feng said with a sly grin.
"You should really find someone. You're such a grown man, I'm worried about you," Qi Tongwei replied irritably.
"Forget it, I don't want to be trapped in the tomb of marriage. There are so many beautiful women waiting for me in this wonderful world," Lin Feng shrugged.
"I can't be bothered with you." Qi Tongwei shook his head. He knew that his cousin was very opinionated and no one could change his mind once he made a decision.
On the 8th floor, Qi Tongwei pushed open the door and led Lin Feng inside. There, they saw Liang Lu wearing an apron, busy in the kitchen. Several dishes were already laid out on the table, along with two bottles of Maotai and two boxes of Maotai under the table.
When Liang Lu saw Lin Feng walk in, she immediately greeted him with a smile, saying, "Little Feng is here? You've grown quite handsome in the years we haven't seen you, but this outfit is a bit strange."
"I just came down from the mountain and haven't even tidied up yet, but it's working! You look even younger and more beautiful now. My brother is so lucky to have married you," Lin Feng replied with a smile.
"You have such a sweet tongue. I wish my sister-in-law were just like you described." No woman dislikes being praised for being young and beautiful, and Liang Lu is no exception.
"Knowing you were coming back today, your sister-in-law went out early this morning to buy groceries and cook for you herself. I don't even get that kind of treatment," Qi Tongwei said with a smile.
"Tongwei, are you saying I've never cooked for you before?" Liang Lu said, feigning anger.
"Wife, that's not what I meant." Qi Tongwei quickly waved his hand upon seeing this.
"Fine, I'll let it go for Xiaofeng's sake today." Liang Lu rolled her eyes at Qi Tongwei, then said to Lin Feng, "Xiaofeng, go wash your hands, it's time to eat."
