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

Are you willing?

Shen Wang was of course willing!

Frankly speaking, how much influence this apprenticeship letter will have in his hands depends entirely on how much importance Sha Ruijin attaches to it.

The more importance Sha Ruijin attaches to it, the more advantageous it is for him.

The more successful Sha Ruijin's operations were, the more righteous and solid Shen Wang's "foundation" appeared.

"Uncle Sha's consideration is very thoughtful, this is a good thing," Shen Wang immediately expressed.

"That letter of apprenticeship can be placed in a museum so that future generations can remember history. That would be more meaningful than if it were in my hands. I have no objection and fully support it."

"well!"

Sha Ruijin smiled with satisfaction and said "good" twice.

Shen Wang's straightforwardness and reasonableness pleased him even more.

He was in a great mood and turned to give Secretary Bai a nod.

"Bring me that bottle of Moutai with the metal cap."

Then he said to Shen Wang, "I'm happy today, let's have a couple of drinks with your Uncle Sha."

"This is a special internal supply that has been around for years; you can't get it on the market."

"Thank you, Uncle Sha," Shen Wang said.

The two then shared a couple of drinks, and the conversation became more relaxed. They occasionally chatted about local customs and traditions, and the atmosphere grew increasingly harmonious.

Although Sha Ruijin never made any specific promises about Shen Wang's future, the fact that he brought out this bottle of his treasured wine was a statement in itself.

This was no longer just politeness; it was a genuine regard for Shen Wang as a junior who needed guidance and care.

After a satisfying meal, and with time running out, Shen Wang rose to take his leave.

"Uncle Sha, I'm sorry to have disturbed your rest today. I'll head back now."

"Okay, be careful on the road." Sha Ruijin nodded.

However, at this moment, a practical problem confronted Shen Wang—

He drank alcohol, although only two small glasses, but he definitely can't drive.

Sha Ruijin had also thought of that, and casually said, "Call a designated driver, or... have Xiaobai arrange a guest room for you to rest for the night."

Although Shen Wang had been drinking, he was clear-headed and knew that it was inappropriate for the other party to offer him the night, and that the other party was just being polite.

"No need to trouble Secretary Bai, I'll just find... uh... find a friend to pick me up."

He originally wanted to ask for a designated driver, but before he could finish speaking, a figure inexplicably popped into his mind.

The person I bumped into last time in the provincial party committee compound was my college sweetheart, senior Ranran.

Without much hesitation, he changed his mind: "I happen to have a friend nearby. I can have her come pick me up. It won't be any trouble."

"Alright, be careful." Sha Ruijin didn't ask any more questions and nodded.

He's already given us enough face by personally keeping us company tonight and having a couple of drinks. Showing more concern for every little detail would be beneath his dignity.

Shen Wang thought for a moment, then edited a message and sent it:

"Senior Ranran, are you resting? I've had a few drinks, could you come pick me up?"

Qin Ran replied quickly after the message was sent.

A huge question mark appeared in response!

Meanwhile, in a dormitory of the Provincial Party Committee, Qin Ran was curled up in a single sofa, wearing cute cartoon pajamas, her hair casually tied up, with a few strands hanging down her cheeks.

She had just finished organizing some materials and was about to relax by watching a TV series.

Suddenly, I received this cryptic message from Shen Wang.

To be honest, ever since she met Shen Wang at the provincial party committee meeting, Qin Ran had developed a strong curiosity and a slight liking for him.

But Shen Wang's message instantly shattered all curiosity and goodwill!

Qin Ran even felt a sense of grievance.

What does he mean?

"Did I think that just because Secretary Bai was polite last time, I should treat him differently, or even...did I think I was the kind of woman who would fawn over the powerful and has no moral boundaries?"

Qin Ran got to where she is today because of her own abilities and intelligence, nothing else.

If she really is the kind of person who wants to take shortcuts, with her qualifications, even if she were a department head with real power...

Qin Ran shook her head, unwilling to think about it anymore.

The good impression she had of Shen Wang shattered instantly, replaced by disappointment and anger.

She's going to block this rude junior!

However, just as she was about to press the "Add to Blacklist" option—

"bite."

Shen Wang's second message popped up.

"I'm at the entrance of the Provincial Party Committee compound No. 1 right now. I just had a few drinks with Uncle Sha, so I really can't drive."

"..."

Qin Ran's movements froze instantly.

Provincial Party Committee No. 1 Courtyard?

Uncle Sha?

Have you had a drink?

Each word was like a lightning bolt, striking her head and making it buzz.

Uncle Sha...you don't mean Secretary Sha, do you?

What kind of international joke is this?

Qin Ran's first reaction was that Shen Wang was drunk and talking nonsense, or that he was simply playing a cruel trick on her.

What kind of place is the Provincial Party Committee's No. 1 Compound? Who is Sha Ruijin? Did you drink with him? And he's called "Uncle Sha"?

That's an outrageous boast!

Qin Ran angrily typed out a message:

"Shen Wang! Are you drunk? Are you treating me like a stinky dog?"

Upon receiving this reply, Shen Wang paused for a moment, then a strange, indescribable expression appeared on his face.

Treating Senior Ranran like a stinky dog... to play with?

Why does it sound like... there's a strange kind of excitement about it?

Shen Wang shook his head, trying to dismiss some of the inappropriate associations for children.

He knew that Qin Ran wouldn't believe him without proof.

Turn on video?

That's inappropriate and impolite.

Shen Wang thought for a moment, then directly opened WeChat's real-time location sharing and sent the invitation.

The real-time location of the provincial party committee's residential compound cannot be faked.

On the other side, Qin Ran's phone screen lit up, and a location sharing invitation popped up.

Qin Ran bit her lower lip, with an angry "Let's see how long you can keep up this act" attitude, and clicked "Accept".

Maps load, locate, and refresh rapidly.

A clear little blue dot, steadily, conspicuously, and motionless, rested on that coordinate system she knew so well—a coordinate representing the core area of ​​highest power in Handong.

Near the No. 1 compound of the Provincial Party Committee's family housing complex!

"!!!"

Qin Ran suddenly sat up straight on the sofa, the cat pattern on her pajamas distorted.

She stared wide-eyed, almost piercing through the phone screen.

Despite repeatedly exiting and re-entering the shared account, that point remains unchanged.

it is true?

Is Shen Wang really in the No. 1 compound of the Provincial Party Committee?

So what he said about "having a drink with Uncle Sha"... could it be... could it also be true?

A tremendous, mind-blowing shock instantly swept over Qin Ran, making her feel slightly dizzy.

Immediately reply:

"Wait for me! I'll be right there!"

After sending the message, and then, almost inexplicably, adding another sentence:

"Shen Wang! If you dare to lie to me... I'll never speak to you again for the rest of my life!"

Shen Wang smiled as he looked at Qin Ran's last message, which carried a hint of coquettish threat.

This lifetime?

Is Senior Ranran overthinking things?

He took a sip of the hangover tea that Secretary Bai had just sent over and waited calmly.

Shortly after, the phone rang again, and Qin Ran's message was concise:

"I've arrived at the gate."

Shen Wang spoke to Secretary Bai, and Qin Ran was let in.

At this moment, Qin Ran was completely dumbfounded!

It's true... he's really here!

He...he didn't lie to me!
