Chapter 214: Public Information

~8 min read 1,401 words

As the end of the year approached, it snowed heavily in Longcheng. The property management of "Wanjia Denghuo" began to decorate the residential area and prepared exquisite gifts for the owners.

The main roads of the city were also hung with Chinese knots and red lanterns, and the festive atmosphere of the approaching Spring Festival was everywhere.

However, only the Li family's atmosphere was depressed.

Mrs. Li had been washing her face with tears for several days. The closer it got to New Year's Eve, the more sad and melancholy she felt. It could almost be said that she had no appetite for food or tea, all because her son had gone abroad before the New Year.

Tonight, she only ate two bites and put down her chopsticks again.

The group was busy at the end of the year, and Li Wanchang was already very exhausted when he returned home every day. He really didn't want to face his wife's sorrowful face anymore.

Besides, it had been several days. Could it be that this New Year had to be spent with tears mixed with rice?

"Enough, stop sighing. Our son went abroad, he didn't die. What are you doing?" Li Wanchang's patience was exhausted, and his face was full of displeasure.

It would have been better if he hadn't mentioned it. As soon as his son was mentioned, Mrs. Li couldn't help but wipe her tears. "Isn't it all your fault? Even if he had to go abroad, did it have to be so urgent? Couldn't you have waited until after the New Year to send him away?"

"It's almost New Year's. Thinking of Xiao Zai spending the holiday alone abroad, my heart hurts terribly."

Hearing this, Li Wanchang sighed. "Was it me who insisted on sending him away? Wasn't it his own decision? In Xiao Zai's state, he would only be sadder staying in Longcheng. Only by going to a new environment can he cheer up sooner. Besides, I've already greeted Old Zhou. He will take Xiao Zai to his home to spend the holiday together; he won't leave him alone."

As he spoke, he pulled out two tissues and handed them to his wife. "You, you just spoil him too much, which is why he has become so fragile and has no ability to handle things at all. Let him exercise his character by himself abroad. My, Li Wanchang's, son is definitely not a coward."

"Once he has recovered his spirits, if you miss your son, you can go see him. Isn't that just a matter of a plane ticket?"

"Are you so at ease with him being alone?" Mrs. Li glared at Li Wanchang, her anger still not dissipated. "Being so far away, what if he encounters something?"

"He's already twenty. He should learn to be independent, otherwise how will he take over my position in the future?"

Seeing that he couldn't reason with his wife, and knowing that she had been hit hard by her son's sudden departure and needed time to accept it, he didn't want to talk more.

Just as he was about to stand up, the phone placed on the side suddenly rang. When he saw the caller ID, Li Wanchang's expression was clearly stunned, and then he quickly picked it up.

It was a call from a staff member of the Land Administration Bureau.

"Chairman Li, this is Xiao Zhang from the Land Administration Bureau."

"Hello, hello, is the information public now?"

Three months ago, Li Wanchang had been brooding over who had bought the plot of land that the Li family had missed. Now that the time was up, the other party's information protection had expired, and their identity would be directly disclosed to the general public.

"Yes, that's why I'm calling you as soon as possible to let you know."

"Who is the other party?"

"The other party's surname is Shen, named Shen Ci."

"Named what?"

Li Wanchang was startled, his voice subconsciously raised, scaring Mrs. Li into looking over in surprise.

"Shen Ci, the Ci of kindness."

In an instant, goosebumps broke out on the back of Li Wanchang's neck, rushing straight to the top of his skull!

Shen Ci?

How could it be Shen Ci?

Impossible, it must be a coincidence of having the same name.

"Xiao Zhang, is there any other detailed information?"

"Oh, no. Disclosing the identity of the landowner to the outside society only serves a supervisory role. The visible information only includes the name; we have no right to view specific detailed information."

Li Wanchang quickly regained his composure, thanked him, and hung up the phone.

"What's wrong?" Mrs. Li saw his solemn expression and leaned forward to ask with concern.

Li Wanchang sighed softly and didn't explain this matter to his wife. She was just a wealthy lady who didn't know much about business, and her temperament was impulsive and impatient. If she heard something related to Shen Ci, she might act impulsively again.

The key was that even he hadn't figured out whether this Shen Ci was his son's ex-girlfriend.

If it really was the same person, then all of this was too dramatic.

On this day, at the "Yangming District Yuanjing Fashion Industrial Park," Shen Ci's Cullinan didn't drive into the underground garage but parked in an empty space on the side of the road across the street.

Since buying this plot of land, this was Shen Ci's first time stepping here. A casual glance revealed several mid-rise office buildings in the industrial park. Through the traces of time, one could vaguely see that the buildings in the park had a retro feel that didn't fit the era, all outdated styles.

But it couldn't be helped that the location here was good, belonging to the very center of Yangming District. Although Yangming District couldn't compare to the other core districts of Longcheng now, Shen Ci knew that it would receive the government's attention and be developed as a key area in the near future.

The value of her land would soon be revealed!

At the property management department of the industrial park, Shen Ci wrapped herself in a coat, carried her bag, and pushed the door to enter. A heat wave hit her face; the heating in the room was very strong, but there were not many employees on duty in the entire office.

But fortunately, the other employees on duty were all working with their heads down, looking very serious and busy.

"Hello, beauty, are you looking for someone or handling business?"

A staff member in charge of reception stepped forward to ask.

Shen Ci looked at the other party and said directly in a calm tone, "I'm looking for your manager."

"Manager?" The young man was stunned. "Which manager are you looking for?"

"The person in charge!"

As Shen Ci said this, she had already walked to the guest sofa on the side and sat down. Seeing this, the other party quickly said, "Sorry, miss, the general manager is not here."

Shen Ci didn't make things difficult for the other party, just nodded lightly. "It's okay, then who is in charge here now?"

The young man looked at Shen Ci for two seconds. Although he didn't know her intention yet, seeing that she was young and didn't look like she was here to cause trouble, he asked Shen Ci to wait a moment and then turned to find someone.

Before long, a middle-aged woman in professional attire came to Shen Ci's side. "Hello, beauty, may I ask what you are here for?"

Shen Ci looked at the other party. She was wearing a work badge with the name "Yu Xiaohua" written on it.

"Hello, I am the new owner of the Yuanjing Industrial Park, which is your new boss." Shen Ci stated her identity straight to the point.

Her name had already been publicized, and the management department of the industrial park must have already known.

"You... are you Miss Shen Ci?"

Shen Ci smiled slightly and nodded.

Seeing this, Yu Xiaohua was both surprised and happy, very excited. "Oh my, you've finally come. All of us knew that the industrial park had been auctioned off and were waiting for the new boss to come and give instructions for new work. I didn't expect three months to pass in a flash, and you've only come now!" ===== CHAPTER 215 =====
