As spiritual energy revived, I, having acquired certain attributes, gradually ascended to immortalit

On the other side, Shen Qing followed Xie Chong through the corridor and into the private room.

As soon as the door opened, besides Chen Chen sitting upright, there was a middle-aged man who seemed familiar.

Let me introduce myself.

Xie Chong waved his hand casually, "This is my old man, Comrade Xie. He insists on meeting you to thank you in person."

He was going to go somewhere else, but luckily I stopped him. The places he was looking at were all flashy but impractical.

Then he added, "My dad knows about our organization and even donated money, so there's no need to hide it."

Mr. Xie had already stood up, extended his hand, and said with a gentle smile, "You must be Shen Qing."

"Hello..." Shen Qing quickly grasped the hand and bowed slightly.

"You're friends, just call me Uncle Xie," Xie's father said with a smile.

"Thank you, Uncle Xie." Shen Qing nodded.

"Sit down first, don't stand, let's eat and talk."

Uncle Xie gestured for them to sit down, and the dishes began to be served. They all seemed to be Huaiyang cuisine, such as crab meat lion's head meatballs and crystal braised pork...

Whether it tastes good or not is still unknown, but the presentation is indeed exquisite, and Chen Chen can't help but swallow his saliva.

Suddenly, Xie's father stood up, poured a cup of tea, and personally handed it to Shen Qing, saying earnestly:

"Knowing you have to patrol this afternoon, I'll drink tea instead of wine. This time, I really owe you a debt of gratitude for saving this good-for-nothing son of mine."

He already knew what had happened. If it weren't for this young man in front of him, his rebellious son would have already fed the demons with his meager strength.

"I heard you even received a first-class merit award; that's truly for the country and its people."

"Uncle Xie, it's not that outrageous."

Shen Qing quickly declined, accepting the teacup with both hands. "It was also luck. Without Xie Chong, I probably wouldn't have survived."

He can't stand his elders treating him like this.

Upon hearing this, Xie Chong immediately raised his head and said smugly, "What? I told you, you're at least a barely passable support."

Uncle Xie glanced at him, then looked at Shen Qing and continued, "Also, we have to thank you for being able to take over that construction site in the suburbs so smoothly."

"Construction site?"

Shen Qing was taken aback. "Uncle Xie, you took over?"

Did he unintentionally help his older brother?

He glanced at Xie Chong, who waved his hand repeatedly, "This has nothing to do with me; the future industry trend is going to change."

Chen Chen was engrossed in eating an abalone, swallowing the food in his mouth, when he curiously looked up.

"Uncle Xie, isn't everyone saying that the civil engineering industry is declining? Many people are avoiding it like the plague, so why are you still taking on construction projects?"

"This...?"

Father Xie smiled, picked up his teacup, and said, "Perhaps you yourselves would know better."

Shen Qing said thoughtfully, "Uncle Xie, is it because of the revival of spiritual energy?"

The world is changing dramatically.

In the future, the situation of individual power may become more and more serious, which will inevitably cause damage. Civil engineering may really have a chance to turn around.

However, the situation is even more dangerous for ordinary people.

Shen Qing frowned slightly.

Just then, a commotion suddenly came from the next private room. The sound wasn't loud and was hard to hear, but it was enough to affect one's appetite.

Mr. Xie frowned and looked at Shen Qing, "Should we change to another private room?"

Shen Qing shook her head. "Uncle Xie, no need. The dishes are already served. Besides, this private room is quite soundproof. It's just that the noise from next door is too loud."

"I'll ask the waiter."

After Xie Chonggang finished speaking, the room next door quieted down, and no one paid any more attention to it.

We chatted for a while, covering various topics, even including family members.

Xie's father suddenly stood up.

"I mainly wanted to express my gratitude in person. I think you young people wouldn't feel comfortable being here with me."

I'll be leaving now. Please trouble this unfilial son if you need anything in the future.

He patted Xie Chong on the shoulder.

"Uncle Xie, we'll see you off." Shen Qing and Chen Chen stood up as well.

"No need," Xie's father waved his hand, his tone gentle but leaving no room for negotiation. "You can continue eating."

Just then, the noise from next door, which had been quiet for a short while, started again.

"I'll go find a waiter to change our private room. You two are guests, so please sit quietly."

Xie Chong frowned and went out with his father, only to find that the neighbors next door were already making a scene at the door.

A young girl in a hotel uniform was being blocked at the door of a private room by a somewhat overweight middle-aged woman who was pointing her finger at her and cursing.

"You little brat, how dare you tell me what to do?"

"We're not even allowed to complain about the food? Call your manager!"

A young man was even filming a video nearby, seemingly enjoying the spectacle.

"Mother-in-law, that's enough, the vegetables are fine..."

Another robust young man tried to dissuade her, while the woman beside him was also tugging at the middle-aged woman's sleeve.

"Mom, I'm begging you, please stop making a scene!"

The middle-aged woman shoved her daughter's hand away, turned the cannon around, and cursed:

"And you, Jiang! You're a lousy foreman, dealing with mud... and you have a burden in your hands, what's your name again, Shen Qing?"

Don't you know your own limitations?

Upon hearing this, the woman finally got angry, "Mom, you've gone too far!"

Mr. Xie was about to turn around and leave to go directly to the hotel to deal with the situation, but Xie Chong stopped him, saying, "Wait, Dad."

The young man filming the video also noticed what was happening.

"President Xie?!"

He was taken aback at first, then immediately leaned closer, his face full of flattery, "I didn't expect you to be eating here too, what a coincidence."

"Who are you?"

"I am an employee of Shanhe Heavy Industry, and I have seen your photo."

Mr. Xie ignored him. He was already annoyed by the young man's rude behavior. He couldn't believe that his company had such an uncivilized employee.

If the customer saw this… He shook his head, noticing another rather robust young man, a smile spreading across his face.

"Jiang Cheng, Mr. Jiang, right?"

Jiang Cheng was taken aback, wondering why the obviously distinguished middle-aged man in front of him would recognize him.

"Big brother, this is my dad."

Xie Chong came up from behind and said, "I didn't introduce myself last time. My name is Xie Chong."

Jiang Cheng recognized him. "You're Qingzi's colleague?"

Mr. Xie nodded and continued, "Mr. Jiang's younger brother is a very outstanding young man."

However, Mr. Jiang is also very capable. I was in charge of that construction site in the suburbs, and I've heard about his team's most responsible and conscientious work.

"Are you the chairman of Shanhe Heavy Industry?"

Jiang Cheng realized what was happening, his eyes widened instantly, and then he glanced at Xie Chong.

A rich man's son working as a food deliveryman?

Zhang Cuifang and Su Yao were also stunned. Their cursing attitude just now was completely gone. They had just finished cursing someone as a burden.

Su Yao's lips twitched as he tried to interject, "President Xie, so you know my brother-in-law."

Mr. Xie completely ignored him and continued, looking at Jiang Cheng, "So, Mr. Jiang, are you interested in bringing your team to actually join our company?"

"Of course, let's clarify the terms and conditions first."

All employees will receive a 20% pay raise, and employee dormitories will be provided.

As for you, as the team leader, you'll be allocated a two-bedroom apartment in a residential complex. Of course, the property rights will belong to the company. How about that?

"Um?"

Jiang Cheng was a little stunned; this was like a windfall.

While it's certainly not as free as working independently, at least you no longer need to be affiliated with a large company or be subcontracted layer by layer.

Especially now that many companies are starting to refuse outsourcing, it's also difficult to find projects.

But why? Is it really because he's hardworking?

The chairman of this large company knows his underling? Is it because his son is a colleague of Qingzi, or something else?

"Um, Mr. Xie... I'll think about it."

It all happened so suddenly and so outrageously.

"Of course, this is my business card."

Xie Chong took out a business card from his chest and handed it over, "You can contact me anytime once you've made up your mind."

Su Yao was even more dumbfounded. The chairman of a key enterprise at least at the provincial level, if not the national level, was giving a business card to a contractor he looked down on.

His palms were sweaty without him even realizing it. What was going on?

"Mr. Xie..."

He opened his mouth, about to say something, when a crisp sound of high heels came from the direction of the lobby.

A tall, flamboyant woman with bright red hair came over, perhaps having heard the commotion.

"Uncle Xie?"

She greeted Xie's father in a flat tone.

Mr. Xie nodded. "Little girl from the Gu family, you're eating here too."

Gu Jingshi nodded, then walked up to Jiang Cheng and Su Wan, his attitude softening, "Big brother, sister-in-law."
