"This is my uncle!"

From doubt to affirmation, Sha Ruijin spoke with absolute certainty.

The young man taking a photo with the brigade commander is his uncle!

Sha Ruijin's breathing quickened instantly.

He had only casually mentioned his uncle's matter to Shen Wang last time, just a small test.

Unexpectedly, Shen Wang actually brought the photos!

Sha Ruijin raised his head and gave Shen Wang a deep look.

This young man is indeed quite capable.

For the sake of this photo, he could overlook Shen Wang's rudeness earlier.

Young people, once they've gained some skills, it's normal for them to be a bit arrogant.

He suppressed his shock and reached for the second photo.

next second.

With a loud "clang".

Sha Ruijin slammed the teacup in his hand heavily onto the coffee table.

This high-ranking official, who was usually unfazed even by the collapse of Mount Tai, suddenly stood up from the sofa, his body trembling slightly, his eyes fixed on the photo in his hand, his face filled with disbelief.

"This...this is..."

His voice was trembling, and his fingers were gripping the photo so tightly that his knuckles turned white.

The photo still shows his uncle, Sha Zhenjiang.

The person standing next to him was wearing the same military uniform, with a gentle smile and a firm gaze.

That face was all too familiar to Sha Ruijin.

He was so familiar with it that he would feel a deep sense of respect every time he saw it in the news.

That's the deputy director!

The deputy director in the photo is still very young, but he already possesses the composure and magnanimity that he will have in the future.

He was patting Sha Zhenjiang on the shoulder, and the two of them were laughing very happily.

My God!

Sha Ruijin felt his head go blank with a "buzz".

Moreover, judging from the intimacy shown in this photo, it is definitely not an ordinary superior-subordinate relationship, but a life-or-death bond forged through shared experiences and bloodshed!

This is no ordinary old photograph!

This is a connection that reaches to the heavens!

This is irrefutable historical evidence that could shake the entire Handong Province and even the entire political arena!

Sha Ruijin stood there, holding the photo, stunned for a full half minute.

When he looked up at Shen Wang again, his eyes had completely changed.

The previous authority, scrutiny, and reprimands have vanished without a trace.

Instead, there was a profound sense of shock, disbelief, and a subtle, almost imperceptible awe.

He finally understood why Shen Wang had such confidence.

He finally understood why Shen Wang dared to speak to him in that tone.

They weren't relying on his connections or background at all.

What he holds in his hands is a historical weight that even he has to look up to.

Sha Ruijin took a deep breath, suppressing the turmoil churning in his chest, and his fingertips trembled as he flipped to the third photo.

This is a group photo of three people.

The backdrop remains the Taihang Mountains, and the uniforms are still faded coarse cloth.

His uncle Sha Zhenjiang stood on the left, the brigade commander stood on the right, and a young man with clear features stood in the middle.

"Um?"

Sha Ruijin's gaze suddenly sharpened.

He subconsciously raised his head, looked at Shen Wang standing opposite him, then lowered his head again, staring intently at the young man's face in the photo.

The same eyebrows and eyes, the same nose, and the same half-smile at the corner of their mouths.

They are 70% similar!

They looked like they were made from the same mold, except the person in the photo exuded a more ruthless and fierce aura.

and many more!

Could this be Shen Wang's great-grandfather, Shen Mingyuan?

Sha Ruijin was stunned!

No, you actually have a great-grandfather?

He had always thought that "Shen Mingyuan" was just a pretext made up by Shen Wang to explain the origin of those old objects.

But now, it's actually alive and well in the photo!

What exactly happened?

Did he guess wrong before?

Sha Ruijin swallowed hard and flipped through the fourth photo.

The next second, he felt his breathing stop.

This one is still a group photo of the three of them.

It was just a group photo of the brigade commander, the deputy director, and that Shen Mingyuan.

What truly shocked Sha Ruijin was that in this group photo, Shen Mingyuan was standing in the middle, with the brigade commander and deputy director standing on either side!

In the photo, Shen Mingyuan is tilting his head slightly, saying something, while the brigade commander and deputy director listen attentively, their eyes filled with undisguised respect.

There was no deliberate posing, no stiff positioning; everything was as natural as could be.

But this most natural stance struck Sha Ruijin like a thunderbolt.

What does that mean?

What does this mean?!

He could make the brigade commander willingly stand beside him, and even make the nationally respected deputy director stand sideways beside him!

Just who is this Shen Mingyuan?!

Sha Ruijin felt that his worldview had been turned upside down.

With trembling hands, he flipped to the fifth photo.

This is a large group photo, with more than a dozen people.

Sha Ruijin's gaze swept over them, and his heart pounded wildly.

The names he had only seen in history textbooks and memorial halls, and the faces etched in history, all appeared vividly on this yellowed photograph.

Even in such a star-studded group photo, the one standing in the very center is still Shen Mingyuan.

Everyone surrounded him, all smiles.

Sha Ruijin was completely dumbfounded!

This powerful official, who had governed tens of millions of people in Handong and had seen countless storms, stood there blankly like a primary school student, his eyes vacant and his mind a complete blank.

What kind of people are Shen Mingyuan and Shen Wang?

Shen Wang was very satisfied with Sha Ruijin's reaction.

now it's right!

This is exactly the effect I wanted.

He looked at Sha Ruijin with a half-smile: "Secretary Sha, so, do you know anyone?"

Sha Ruijin suddenly came to his senses.

He gave Shen Wang a deep look, his eyes no longer holding any of the previous authority and sternness, only deep awe and disbelief.

The next second, an incredibly warm smile instantly spread across his face.

"Xiao Wang, didn't I tell you? You don't need to be so polite at home, just call him Uncle Sha!"

The change was so fast that even Secretary Bai, who was standing next to him, was dumbfounded.

Qin Ran was so shocked that her eyes almost popped out.

Shen Wang simply nodded: "I've delivered the photos. If there's nothing else, I'll be going now."

As he spoke, he made a move to get up.

Sha Ruijin quickly called for them to stay.

"Xiao Wang, didn't you say you brought Uncle Sha a bottle of good wine? Come on, Tian said you absolutely have to have a couple of drinks with Uncle Sha!"

Shen Wang shook his head: "No, Uncle Sha, didn't you just say that young people should drink less, because drinking can easily lead to trouble?"

"I dare not drink anymore. If I get arrested for drunk driving again, no one will send car number one to pick me up."

Sha Ruijin, upon hearing this, not only showed no embarrassment but also approached Shen Wang with a smile and took his hand.

"Hahaha! Uncle Sha misspoke! Others can't drink, but of course our Xiao Wang can! Let alone a sip, he could drink a whole jar, and no one would dare utter a single word against it!"

He patted Shen Wang's hand, his tone extremely solemn: "Don't worry, Uncle Sha will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation for today's matter. He won't let you suffer in vain!"
