Chapter 1998

Ruan Yutao suddenly broke out. She jumped up, pointed at Zheng Yanjun's nose and cursed, "You useless old thing, your son was beaten and you said he deserved it, and said he was beaten lightly. Do you deserve to be a father?"

Zheng Yanjun was used to Ruan Yutao's shrewish appearance. He was not moved at all. He sat on the sofa, poured himself a glass of water, and asked slowly, "Do you know who he molested?"

Ruan Yutao asked, "Who? In Jiangyou Province, who else can he not molest? Isn't it just Ke Zhifang's guest? That doesn't mean he should be beaten into this appearance, right? You coward, aren't you just afraid of Ke Zhifang? You are afraid, but I am not. I will go to his office tomorrow and ask him!"

Zheng Yanjun slapped the tea table hard. The force was so great that the teacup on the tea table jumped up. He was a person who had been a professor. Usually, he was a gentleman and rarely lost his temper. However, precisely because he rarely lost his temper, his sudden loss of temper today suddenly stunned Ruan Yutao. Zheng Hanchao looked at his father in horror.

This afternoon, his father lost his temper on the phone, and then called him to the office and scolded him. Now seeing him lose such a big temper, Zheng Hanchao was really a bit scared.

Zheng Yanjun said with a straight face, "Do you know that the girl he molested has a big background that our Zheng family cannot afford to provoke? If I hadn't called him back at that time, I guess I wouldn't be the Deputy Secretary now."

Zheng Yanjun's words were very serious. Although Ruan Yutao was a shrew, she was not stupid. She knew that her family could have such glory now, all because Zheng Yanjun was a Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee. If Zheng Yanjun couldn't be this Deputy Secretary, she knew how miserable the family would become.

Therefore, she asked nervously, "No way, what is the background of that girl? Even you cannot afford to provoke her?"

Zheng Yanjun shook his head and said, "I cannot tell you this, but I can tell you that there are not many people in the country who can afford to provoke that girl. Hanchao really should thank the person who hit him. If that person hadn't stopped him, if he had really touched her, his hand would have been broken, and the result for our family would also be very miserable."

Ruan Yutao was a big mouth. Zheng Yanjun naturally couldn't tell her Yu Ruoqiu's identity. If he told her, it might be known to everyone the next day.

And Zheng Yanjun spoke solemnly. He was naturally not a weak and incompetent person. Ruan Yutao said he was a coward, just a slip of the tongue. After hearing Zheng Yanjun's words, she also became nervous: "Old Zheng, what you said is true?"

Zheng Yanjun said, "What I said is naturally true. Can I tell you lies about such things? Do you think I don't feel heartache that Hanchao was beaten like this? But this person is really someone we cannot afford to provoke!"

Ruan Yutao asked nervously, "Then will others retaliate against us?"

Zheng Yanjun said, "Fortunately, I called Hanchao back in time today. Otherwise, he would have provoked others, and I personally went to apologize to others, and even hosted them for a meal in the evening. Listening to their meaning, this matter should have passed this time. However, if Hanchao continues to act recklessly like this, one day he will cause a big disaster for our family!"

Ruan Yutao breathed a sigh of relief and stroked her chest with her hand. She turned to Zheng Hanchao and said, "Hanchao, did you hear that? Don't cause trouble outside in the future!"

Zheng Hanchao was also scared by his father's words. He nodded and said, "Mom, I won't dare to in the future!"

Zheng Yanjun said to Zheng Hanchao earnestly, "Hanchao, you are twenty years old, not a child anymore. You have to know that there are many people in this world that we cannot afford to provoke. You cannot do whatever you want. If you don't want your father, a fifty-something-year-old man, to go and apologize to a few twenty-something-year-old young people next time, you should know something!"

When Zheng Yanjun said this, the corners of his eyes were slightly red. He was really moved.

Zheng Hanchao imagined the scene of his father, a fifty-something-year-old man, a Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, apologizing to those twenty-something-year-old young people. He was also moved, and the corners of his eyes were also red: "Dad, I will never act recklessly again!"

Zheng Yanjun nodded and said, "Fine, if you can think so, then this beating was not in vain. Go to the hospital to have a good look tomorrow and fill those few missing teeth."

Zheng Hanchao said, "I went to Jinluan Mountain today. There is a living immortal in Lingjin Temple. He gave me a box of ointment. It's much better after applying it. I'll just fill my teeth tomorrow."

Zheng Yanjun said angrily, "What living immortal, don't follow along and make a fool of yourself!"

Zheng Hanchao said, "Dad, don't disbelieve it. That living immortal is really very powerful. He has cured many big shots' illnesses. Those big shots have all taken photos with him, including big cadres, big stars, and big bosses. I know quite a few of them, and I can see them on the News Broadcast."

Zheng Yanjun's brows couldn't help but wrinkle. He was a teacher of Marxist philosophy, so he naturally didn't believe in these strange things. His intuition felt that this so-called living immortal was a swindler. However, since many big shots had taken photos with this so-called living immortal, the water in this matter was too deep, and he didn't want to get involved too deeply.

Those who engage in politics know that for things involving faith like this, even if it is superstition, it cannot be ignored lightly.

Don't look at the fact that cadres are only allowed to believe in communism. In fact, Zheng Yanjun knew that many cadres, even high-level cadres, were very superstitious. If he got involved too deeply, he might get into trouble.

Zheng Yanjun asked Zheng Hanchao solemnly who those people who took photos with this living immortal were. Zheng Hanchao saw that his father's face was a bit wrong, so he told Zheng Yanjun the names of those people. Zheng Yanjun became more and more shocked as he listened. This living immortal's relationship network was really not small.

However, Zheng Yanjun didn't want his name to become a node in this living immortal's relationship network. Therefore, he said to Zheng Hanchao, "Hanchao, don't go to see this so-called living immortal again in the future, do you hear me?"

Zheng Hanchao said, "Dad, this won't work. I also told Liang Hongsheng to let him take me to see the living immortal and let the living immortal help me treat my illness."

Zheng Yanjun asked seriously, "What illness do you have?"

Zheng Hanchao knew he had made a slip of the tongue. He covered it up and said, "Nothing, I have a little stomach trouble, and I can't get better after taking medicine. Liang Hongsheng said that the living immortal is very magical, so I wanted to let him help me treat it."

Zheng Yanjun said, "Your stomach trouble is caused by irregular eating. You just honestly come back to eat every day in the future. Don't go to see that so-called living immortal again. You must remember my words, otherwise you will cause trouble for our family in the future!"
