Name: The Holy Son of the Energy Department Enters Handong

"Boss, your food is ready, I'll serve it to you right away!"

In the private room where Sha Ruijin was, the elegant dishes had already been served.

But one person is indeed missing: Tian Guofu.

He listened to Sha Ruijin very well, and went back as soon as he was told to.

Looking at the pile of dishes on the table, Sha Ruijin's expression became irritable!

Was the food not good?

Undoubtedly, the food on the table was delicious, but Sha Ruijin had no appetite.

Shaking his head, Sha Ruijin stood up, preparing to leave.

"Beep beep beep beep!"

I was all standing up, just waiting to leave, when this crucial moment came.

It's something you carry with you at all times; only a very close friend or family member can get through when the phone rings.

Looking down, he saw it was still his father-in-law's number.

"You can go out now, I need to take this call," Sha Ruijin waved to his secretary.

The sensible secretary left.

When the phone rang, Secretary Xiao Bai looked at Sha Ruijin.

We're just waiting for Sha Ruijin's next instructions.

Therefore, he left cleanly and decisively.

They closed the room door and even stood at the entrance of the private room to prevent outsiders from suddenly barging in.

"Dad, why are you calling me at this hour? Is something urgent?"

Sha Ruijin frowned and said that when this call came, he already had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

My heart was beating much faster than usual.

It's impossible not to be nervous.

"The situation in Handong Province must be difficult to resolve, right?"

Instead of answering Sha Ruijin's question, the person on the other end of the phone sighed.

"Dad, why would you say that? I'm still doing my research. I haven't figured out the game in Handong Province yet, and I haven't thought of a way to get into it."

Sha Ruijin forced himself to remain calm, saying that he absolutely could not let his father-in-law look down on him.

He wanted to be a "phoenix man" (a man from a poor background who achieves success) that his father-in-law could hold his head high, not a "chicken coop man" (a man from a poor family who lives in a cramped, dilapidated place).

A "phoenix man" is someone who has real talent, while a "chicken coop man" is just a lucky good-for-nothing.

"You haven't even entered the game yet, but someone has already made a move."

I called you specifically to mention that Governor Zhao Xia, who was parachuted in, is no ordinary person.

The immense power behind him is something even I fear.

It's also strange that the Chung family was so impulsive, wanting to climb to the top by stepping on the faces of the energy sector.

As a result, you've been implicated!

"Dad, is there something more to what you're saying? What's going on? Is things not going well on your end?"

"Have you encountered any difficulties? What do you need me to do?" Sha Ruijin became anxious instantly. What had enabled him to get to this point?

He knows best that he certainly has the ability, but his father-in-law's support on the other end of the phone must have played a significant role as well.

"Hou Liangping, the son-in-law of the Zhong family, is a lively monkey who thinks he is the Monkey King."

I offended some people I shouldn't have!

We had some collaborations with the Zhong family, which ended up affecting us and even the chess game in Handong Province.

I sent you to Handong Province before to get a share of the pie.

However, things have suddenly changed, and this cake is no longer so delicious. You need to be extra careful.

You must pay attention to Governor Zhao Xia's attitude; you must pay special attention to it. His attitude is very important.

"I'm afraid he's targeting you on purpose!" The old man's voice on the other end of the phone sounded hoarse and tired.

Clearly, he didn't have much confidence in confronting the behemoth that was the Energy System.

"Okay, I understand, Dad, don't worry," Sha Ruijin said, frowning.

What he meant was that Governor Zhao Xia might have already made his move.

The joint letter of inquiry, as well as the contents of the meeting where the provincial governor met.

I'm sure the old man on the other end of the phone will soon hear the news.

Thinking about all this, Sha Ruijin frowned even more deeply.

He really couldn't continue the investigation any longer. If he continued, by the time he returned to the province, things in Handong would probably have completely changed.

But even after all this time, he still hasn't figured out the leverage Zhao Lichun has left in Handong Province.

Going back now would be tantamount to the research yielding no results at all.

This put Sha Ruijin in a deep dilemma.

"You have the ability, and we trust you; otherwise, I wouldn't have agreed to your marriage to my daughter," the old man said proudly on the phone. But then his tone suddenly changed, and he solemnly instructed:

"However, this Zhao Xia is no ordinary person."

Within the energy sector, he is known as the Holy Son.

Only the senior members of the Energy Department and he himself know the extent of his abilities.

What exactly did he do to earn the recognition of everyone in the energy department?

And the secret has been kept hidden for so long.

Don't be fooled by his lazy appearance; otherwise, you'll suffer a great loss.

You must be extremely careful; if you can't win, making a compromise might be necessary!

The old man's final words of advice seemed utterly powerless.

Upon hearing this, Sha Ruijin's pupils suddenly contracted.

It was unbelievable that these words came from the mouth of his father-in-law, whom he had always thought was omnipotent.

He was the provincial party secretary, yet he had to bow down to an acting governor.

Is this reasonable? Is this normal?

In the end, Zhao Xia was nothing more than an acting regional governor.

He achieved great success as a high-ranking official.

Is it really necessary to bow down?

"Father-in-law, this..."

For the first time, Sha Ruijin was speechless in front of his father-in-law.

He also wanted to exercise his authority as the top leader and run rampant in Handong Province.

His father-in-law's words, however, were a wake-up call for him.

"You little rascal, why are you suddenly so quiet? Are you holding a grudge, thinking that I'm being too cautious?"

Let me tell you, this is not careful at all!

The one who survives to the end is the winner.

Although the principle of "if you don't advance, you fall behind" is one of the fundamental rules.

But it would be foolish to knowingly take a high risk.

A 42-year-old regional governor.

You've already become the provincial party secretary, don't you know the value of this position?

The position of provincial governor is merely a stage for Zhao Xia, the "energy sage," to make his debut.

He still has a long way to go, unlike you who have already reached the end. Can you make further progress?

"It all depends on fate!" Old Huang was afraid that Sha Ruijin had gone down the wrong path.

He patiently explained, hoping that Sha Ruijin would understand.

Fearing that Sha Ruijin might make a foolish mistake, he insisted on going head-to-head with Zhao Xia, this terrifying defender, in this game in Handong Province.

Sha Ruijin listened to his father-in-law's words and remained silent for a long time before slowly speaking.

"Don't worry, father-in-law, I'll know what I'm doing."

I won't do anything reckless, and I won't let you worry!

Sha Ruijin gritted his teeth and compromised, but in reality, he had another thought in his mind: "Father-in-law, since this is almost the end of my road anyway, why not give it my all?"

You're getting old after all, and you want to prioritize stability!

Old Huang had no idea what Sha Ruijin was really thinking. Hearing Sha Ruijin's words, he breathed a sigh of relief and laughed heartily.

"Hahaha, I'm relieved to hear that!"
