indeed achieved his desired goal of becoming a Candidate Senior Affairs Officer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng greeted Zheng Honghu and then returned to his office with Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along the way, the three of them received a “guard of honor” welcome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who passed by all stopped in their tracks to make way for them, smiling broadly with kindness and respect, calling out to Bai Xiaosheng—”Affairs Officer Bai”!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though he was now a candidate for Senior Affairs Officer, the title remained the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet within those voices, there was clearly a hint of awe reserved for a Senior Affairs Officer!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today, Bai Xiaosheng’s status was entirely different!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beyond the greetings, these people also invariably widened their eyes to carefully observe Bai Xiaosheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their gazes even followed him all the way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed they all wanted to see for themselves what kind of miraculous figure could, in one year, rise from being an Affairs Officer to a Candidate Senior Affairs Officer, surpassing the benchmark of the Affairs Department, Lin Yu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or perhaps they thought he was donned with some secret halo!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The most absurd thing was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they passed offices along the way, the doors would quietly open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those inside would specifically run out to join in greeting him and have a look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng on this walk could do nothing but smile, nod, and greet people; by the end, even his facial muscles felt sore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was exhausting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the end, Bai Xiaosheng walked with a brisk step, just to get back sooner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once he returned to his office and closed the door, Bai Xiaosheng’s expression immediately collapsed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This Candidate Senior Affairs Officer, to think I was actually on public display…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do they really see me as some precious animal!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Weiwei laughed with a “pfft,” “Then we should charge admission and not let them watch for free.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Exactly!” Lei Ying heartily agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng twitched his lower eyelid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While chatting, Bai Xiaosheng’s phone rang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Feng Li?” Bai Xiaosheng glanced at the name and answered the call.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Congratulations, Bai Xiaosheng!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I didn’t expect you to become the candidate for this term’s Senior Affairs Officer!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m handling affairs in the neighboring province and just got the news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sorry I can’t congratulate you in person,” Feng Li laughed on the phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not at all, I’ve just been lucky,” Bai Xiaosheng replied modestly while smiling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet internally he thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is the news spreading this quickly?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Feng Li, who is out of town, knows about it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng had a chat with Feng Li and then hung up the phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No sooner had he done so, another call came in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, even further away, it was Lin Ke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just two days ago when they chatted, she was in the south.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she would be returning soon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Candidate Senior Affairs Officer Bai, impressive!” As soon as the call connected, Lin Ke shouted excitedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only she could call out such an awkward title so nonchalantly…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“One year not seen, and you’ve made quite the progress, seizing the candidacy for Senior Affairs Officer upon your return!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now, you’re just one step away from being a Senior Affairs Officer!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s really infuriating, once you become the Senior Affairs Officer, I’ll have to listen to you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Ke chattered incessantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I don’t care, if you really become the Senior Affairs Officer in a few years, you must give me some privileges, or I won’t let you off the hook!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This girl was like a bouncing bean, her words unending.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng could barely get a word in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a round of banter, Lin Ke finally hung up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng let out a sigh of relief, but then Wang Xincheng’s call came through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And afterward, Li Haofeng…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of his acquaintances, although outside, congratulated him as soon as they heard the news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On one hand, Bai Xiaosheng marveled at the speed of the news spreading, and on the other, he felt very comforted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who came to congratulate were all his friends.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In their words, there was heartfelt joy for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, in a Senior Affairs Officer’s office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Beijun heard the news and was genuinely surprised, his gaze a bit complex.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This Bai Xiaosheng has actually managed to surpass Lin Yu and secure the candidacy for Senior Affairs Officer!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unbelievable!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This news was somewhat hard for Fang Beijun to believe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Lin Yu’s backer was none other than Shen Peishen!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Bai Xiaosheng?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although President Xiahou Qi was quite fond of him, he definitely would not intervene this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Firstly, Lin Yu was also someone Xiahou Qi admired, and he would be happy regardless of who was elected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Secondly, what status was Xiahou Qi?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he trampled the rules, then what rules could Zhenbei Group’s Greater China Region follow in the future?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, if Xiahou Qi truly wanted someone in the position, would he need to go through such trouble?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would simply be unnecessary!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, in this matter, President Xiahou Qi would certainly remain neutral.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng could be said to be fighting a solo battle, not only facing the powerful enemy, Lin Yu, but also contending with the support of other Senior Affairs Officers!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet he still won!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I really did underestimate him!” Senior Affairs Officer Fang Beijun frowned and murmured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His dislike for Lu Zhixin, this troublemaker, and his wish to get rid of her were true.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When discussing the selection criteria for the Candidate Senior Affairs Officer election, thinking of troubling Bai Xiaosheng was also true.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This isn’t a conflict.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Beijun wanted to offer Lu Zhixin as a dish to Shen Peishen’s side to eat, so he secretly reached out to Yu Ying and wanted to spare Lin Yu some “trouble.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, this was also an attempt to gain Shen Peishen’s support.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outsiders only think it’s Fang Beijun and Shen Peishen in an open and covert fight, but little do they know, when it comes to their level,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>there are no permanent enemies, only eternal interests.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Beijun, thinking of advancing half a step up and leaving the Greater China Region for a position at the Zhenbei Group headquarters, knew he needed more support.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the very least, not a stumbling block.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng could say he had snatched that position from the jaws of a generation’s prodigy, despite the resistance of two Senior Affairs Officers, one overt and one covert!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He’s a strong figure!” even Fang Beijun was somewhat impressed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side, in Shen Peishen’s office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu sat on the sofa, with Shen Peishen opposite him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu’s face looked terrible, and his whole person seemed a bit dazed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This blow to him was indeed significant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A person always adheres to a set of thoughts, a set of principles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, one day, they shake, wanting to betray their former self and abandon some principles to achieve victory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet they find that abandonment is meaningless, ultimately achieving nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, what exactly is pointless?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The perseverance or the abandonment?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That confusion leaves one at a loss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu lowered his head to look at his hands, saying nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Peishen sighed softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lin Yu, do you feel that you’ve made a great sacrifice but haven’t gained anything, and consider yourself a failure?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu raised his head, looking blankly at his mentor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes were complex.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I, on the other hand, think your failure was inevitable!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Because you, aren’t pure enough!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Although you agreed to use some methods, inside you’re still resistant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It doesn’t feel glorious enough, not open enough.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu looked at his mentor, mouth slightly agape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Peishen stopped him from speaking and continued, “I know what you want to say.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You want to say that you didn’t feel that way, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even if you don’t think you felt that way, you’ve been subconsciously rejecting it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Peishen pointed at Lin Yu, “Otherwise, with your brain, wouldn’t you have thought of the trap Bai Xiaosheng might have set for you?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this matter, I had someone build bridges, but didn’t care about the rest because I believed in you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But what about you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You didn’t actively contemplate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being passive even when you resorted to tactics is the resistance in your heart!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bai Xiaosheng, on the other hand, is different!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He never cares about the means used, only about the outcome!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s why, the loser is you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Peishen’s voice was low but seemed incredibly sharp, each word like a needle, stabbing into Lin Yu’s heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu’s eyes widened, and his mouth hung open, staring at his mentor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His heart was also touched!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, it was his own lack of purity, his lack of thoroughness!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he had resorted to tactics, he should have been active, proactive, and made those tactics fully thought out!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The difference between you and Bai Xiaosheng isn’t in intellect; it lies here!” Shen Peishen pointed at Lin Yu’s chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the last sentence, Lin Yu was like someone awakened from a dream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s my inner indecision!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s my lingering concerns over those tactics!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu muttered to himself continuously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his mind, there seemed to be a faint roar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I, Lin Yu, am not worse than Bai Xiaosheng!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My loss is because I took that step, yet I was not proactive—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>to scheme!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu’s eyes brightened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This scene, witnessed by Shen Peishen, was most gratifying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blessing in disguise, Lin Yu had an “epiphany.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was no small gain, even compared to getting the title of Candidate Senior Affairs Officer!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The corners of Shen Peishen’s mouth curled into a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Candidate Senior Affairs Officer is not the same as the real Senior Affairs Officer,” Shen Peishen said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Next time, just take it back!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Indeed, teacher!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Next time, in the election five years later, I will take back the title of Candidate Senior Affairs Officer, and I’ll certainly become a Senior Affairs Officer before him!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu’s eyes were bright, revealing a sharpness after enlightenment, “By any means necessary!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Here, Lin Yu had an epiphany.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There, Bai Xiaosheng was restless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ultimately, he had to go out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xiaosheng, where are you going?” Lin Weiwei couldn’t help but ask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just going for a walk,” Bai Xiaosheng muttered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next sentence tumbled in his throat but remained unspoken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Without that one point, I’m restless.”\u003C\u002Fp>",1736,"2026-06-05T17:42:58.112Z",1,"novelbin.me","1ab1db9195f56c13ea2a172c9df4d0d5dd173657869698207e356c05df0493e5","inheritance-of-two-trillion-chapter-1014","inheritance-of-two-trillion-chapter-1012",2500,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Finheritance-of-two-trillion-cover.jpg"]
