You are ordered to support the War of Resistance against Japan; China enters Level 1 combat readines

"Don't worry, Uncle Sha will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation for what happened today. Anyone who dares to make you suffer is going against me, Sha Ruijin!"

This statement has a double meaning; it refers both to the drunk driving incident and to an apology for the earlier reprimand, indicating that the speaker will make amends.

Sha Ruijin didn't give Shen Wang a chance to continue his sarcastic remarks, quickly changing the subject and turning his gaze to Qin Ran standing beside him, asking with a smile:

"Who is this pretty little girl? Why don't you introduce her to Uncle Sha?"

"My girlfriend, Qin Ran." Shen Wang casually put his arm around Qin Ran's shoulder.

"Okay! Okay!"

Sha Ruijin nodded repeatedly, looking Qin Ran up and down with admiration in his eyes.

"What a perfect match! A match made in heaven! Xiao Wang has excellent taste!"

Qin Ran's face instantly turned bright red.

Half of it was because Shen Wang's words "girlfriend" melted her heart.

The other half was that she was so excited that her palms were sweating because the provincial party secretary personally praised her.

But what I felt most was a deep-seated shock and disbelief.

Qin Ran, being a member of the same body type, could easily see the clash between Shen Wang and Sha Ruijin.

Just minutes ago, Sha Ruijin was condescendingly beating Shen Wang, who was so frightened she didn't dare to breathe.

But now?

Sha Ruijin actually turned around and fawned over Shen Wang with a smile!

Despite being ridiculed by Shen Wang in public, he not only didn't get angry, but also took the initiative to take on all the tasks, calling him "Little Wang" affectionately over and over again!

The junior student... actually turned around and gave the provincial champion a piece of his mind?

Qin Ran felt like her heart was about to jump out of her chest.

She looked at Shen Wang, who stood calmly beside her, her eyes filled with admiration and infatuation.

What kind of amazing being is my man?

Secretary Bai, standing to the side, was even more terrified.

He had followed Sha Ruijin for over a decade and understood better than anyone what the secretary's humble words just now truly meant.

Let alone ordinary municipal leaders, even members of the provincial party committee standing committee have never seen Secretary Sha so enthusiastic.

Seeing that the atmosphere was just right, Secretary Bai knew it was her turn to step in.

"Secretary Sha, Mr. Shen, Director Qin, the food is ready. Shall we take our seats first and chat while we eat?"

"Yes, yes, yes! Let's eat first!"

Sha Ruijin immediately took the opportunity to go down the steps, tightly holding Shen Wang's hand as they walked towards the restaurant, afraid that he would bring up what had just happened again.

"The dishes are all home-style cooking made by our housekeeper. There are no fancy dishes, but they taste pretty good. Xiao Wang, you should try them."

Inside the restaurant, a small solid wood dining table is set with six dishes and a soup.

Stir-fried broccoli, braised pork belly, steamed sea bass, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, cucumber salad, and a pot of tender chicken soup.

There were no abalone or lobster, no shark fin or bird's nest; they were just ordinary home-style dishes, yet they were brightly colored and had a wonderful aroma, showing that they were made with care.

The group took their seats one by one.

Shen Wang brought up the jar of Daughter's Red wine and gently tapped off the last bit of clay seal.

Instantly, the rich and mellow aroma of wine filled the air again, even more intense than in the large open-plan area, suppressing even the aroma of the dishes in the restaurant.

"Uncle Sha, try this jar of wine I dug out of the old house."

Shen Wang picked up the wine pot and poured a full glass of amber-colored wine into Sha Ruijin's cup.

Looking at the wine in his glass, Sha Ruijin finally breathed a long sigh of relief.

The fact that Shen Wang was willing to pour him wine meant that the little incident from earlier was now completely over.

To be honest, Sha Ruijin now wouldn't dare to treat Shen Wang as a junior who needs to be disciplined and guided by an elder.

He truly regarded Shen Wang as a partner of the same or even higher level.

If Shen Wang could produce a photo of his uncle and the brigade commander, he could also produce photos of himself with other people.

Putting everything else aside, just based on that photo of Shen Mingyuan standing in the center, making even the deputy director stand aside, plus the IOUs and inscriptions that Shen Wang produced before, this kid could walk sideways all over the country and no one would dare to stop him.

Shen Wang looked at the relieved expression on Sha Ruijin's face and a subtle, almost imperceptible smile appeared on his lips.

I'll pour you a drink; it'll get you drunk.

Sha Ruijin picked up his glass and took a small sip. The wine was smooth on the palate, its rich aroma exploding on the tongue. As it slid down his throat, a warm sensation instantly spread throughout his body, leaving a lingering aftertaste and a pleasant fragrance on his lips and teeth.

"Excellent wine! Truly excellent wine!"

Sha Ruijin's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but exclaim, "I've drunk a lot of good wine in my life, and I've tasted all kinds of vintages of Moutai, but compared to this jar of wine, it's not even in the same league! How many years must this fine wine have been aged!"

"Not many, only about eighty years," Shen Wang said calmly.

"More than eighty years!"

Sha Ruijin gasped, then quickly picked up his wine glass again and took a careful sip, afraid of wasting a single drop.

"No wonder it tastes so good! Today is all thanks to you, Xiaowang!"

After several rounds of drinks and five courses of food,

Sha Ruijin put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth, and got down to business:

"Xiao Wang, with these photos you brought, the 'Shen Mingyuan-Sha Zhenjiang Revolutionary Memorial Hall' project is officially a done deal! And the scale will only be higher than what we initially planned!"

He paused, then his tone became serious: "If we submit these photos, on the opening day, there might be even more important figures who will come all the way here."

"An even bigger figure?"

Qin Ran paused, her chopsticks snapping in her hand. She abruptly looked up and gasped.

A figure even more important than Sha Ruijin?

What level is that?

She simply couldn't imagine it.

She glanced at Shen Wang furtively, her eyes filled with curiosity.

What kind of photos did the junior bring that could alarm such a big shot?

Shen Wang smiled and handed the stack of photos beside him to Qin Ran: "Take a look for yourself."

Qin Ran quickly took the photos and flipped through them one by one.

She glanced at the young man in the C position, then at Shen Wang.

The photo in my hand almost fell onto the table.

Oh my God!

My junior's ancestors...were incredibly powerful!

No wonder Secretary Sha was so polite to his junior!

On the other side, Secretary Bai walked to Sha Ruijin's side, bent down, and whispered a few words.

Sha Ruijin nodded, his gaze falling on Qin Ran, a kind smile appearing on his face:

"So Comrade Qin is the executive vice president of Jingzhou Department Store?"

Qin Ran quickly snapped out of her daze, put down the photo, sat up straight, and nodded somewhat awkwardly: "Yes, Secretary Sha."

Sha Ruijin spoke in a gentle tone, as if chatting casually: "I know a little about the situation at Jingzhou Department Store. It's an old state-owned enterprise, and it has indeed encountered many difficulties in recent years."

"Comrade Qin is young and promising, energetic and full of ideas. If you encounter any difficulties at work in the future, feel free to talk to Uncle Sha."

"The province will provide full support wherever it can."

He paused, looked at Shen Wang, then at Qin Ran, and said meaningfully:

"If Xiao Qin, you can really lead Jingzhou Department Store out of its predicament, revitalize this long-established state-owned enterprise, and ensure that thousands of employees don't lose their jobs and can live a good life, then on behalf of ten million people in Jingzhou, I thank you."
