In officialdom: After she left, I rose rapidly through the ranks!

For Chen Jingcheng, guessing to this extent was already the limit.

Only a powerful provincial or ministerial-level figure, who is a member of the Standing Committee and a prominent figure in Qingjiang Province, could possibly challenge the newly arrived Deputy Secretary Wu, and would likely win.

There are only so many members on the Standing Committee of a province, and each one of them is a top figure in that province.

This is something that ordinary deputy provincial-level officials cannot compare to.

The vice-presidents of the National People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference cannot compare, nor can the vice-provincial-level officials who are not members of the Standing Committee of the provincial government.

However, even though Chen Jingcheng tried to guess as high as possible, he was still wrong.

After hearing Chen Jingcheng's words, Li Zhixing was stunned for a moment, then gently shook his head and said, "Jingcheng, you're mistaken. Your biological father doesn't work in Qingjiang Province."

"No, it's not that he doesn't work in Qingjiang Province anymore, but rather that he worked with me many years ago, but he hasn't been in Qingjiang Province for a very long time."

Upon hearing this, Chen Jingcheng was indeed extremely surprised.

Not working in Qingjiang Province?

This was completely different from what he had always thought.

He had always believed that his biological parents worked in Qingjiang Province and were powerful figures who had cultivated deep roots in the province for many years. His release and the Li family's turnaround only proved his suspicion.

Only in this way can it be explained.

But now, Li Zhixing is saying that his biological father does not work in Qingjiang Province. This is not just an accident; it is something that cannot be thought about too deeply.

What does it mean that someone who doesn't work in Qingjiang Province can get the Qingjiang Provincial Party Committee to convene a Standing Committee meeting specifically for their affairs and remove a municipal party secretary from his post, allowing the Li family to turn the tables and fight against the provincial third party?

If this were a provincial standing committee member who had grown up in Qingjiang Province, it would be understandable.

But if it's a leader from another province, then it's incomprehensible.

There's no way that a standing committee member from another province could influence Qingjiang Province, especially one of this magnitude. It's no longer a matter of giving face.

Unless, of course, Chen Jingcheng's biological father, although he lives in another province, his influence is so great that even the main leaders of Qingjiang Province dare not underestimate him and must pay close attention to him.

This means one thing: either his biological father is in Beijing, holding a vice-ministerial position in some extremely powerful department.

Alternatively, working alongside a very high-ranking leader will also guarantee a high level of rank for the individual.

Either they must be at the same level, or not just at the same level, but also the kind of people that even the main leaders of the Qingjiang Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government must consider.

Chen Jingcheng dared not think any further.

It sounds complicated, but if we change it to a city or Linchuan County, it seems much easier to understand.

Would Zhao Mingyuan, the Party Secretary of Linchuan County, overturn all the matters that Deputy Party Secretary Wang of Linchuan County had personally arranged and handled, and convene a meeting of the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee overnight, simply because of other members of the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee from other counties?

Obviously, this is impossible, because Deputy Secretary Wang is the Deputy Secretary of the Linchuan County Party Committee, and Zhao Mingyuan still needs him.

The fact that Zhao Mingyuan could do this speaks volumes about the power and influence of the other party.

Chen Jingcheng looked at Li Zhixing, and at that moment, he suddenly realized that all his imaginations might be about to be overturned.

His biological parents were perhaps the kind of extraordinary people he had never imagined, nor even dared to imagine.

"He's come to Qingjiang?"

"Uncle Li, are you taking me to see him?"

Chen Jingcheng sighed; ultimately, he still had to face it.

Although he already knew that his biological parents had not abandoned him intentionally, and that they had been searching for him desperately for many years, he was fundamentally different from an abandoned child.

If Chen Jingcheng was the one they abandoned back then, then even if they were very high-ranking officials and helped Chen Jingcheng this time, Chen Jingcheng would not accept this relationship.

He could be grateful, he could be thankful, but he would never acknowledge this marriage.

You could have abandoned me back then, no matter what your reasons were, it didn't matter.

But instead of being abandoned, they were secretly taken away. Chen Jingcheng could empathize with their heartbreak.

It is precisely because he is a person with conscience and principles that Chen Jingcheng feels regret at this moment.

Li Zhixing gently patted Chen Jingcheng's arm and couldn't help but sigh. He could see that Chen Jingcheng's expression was still somewhat hesitant.

"Jingcheng, you have no idea how happy he was when he heard the news about you."

"They've been looking for you all these years, and I think you can understand their pain."

"I know you may not be able to accept it right now, but they are not the ones who made the mistake; they are also victims."

"Jingcheng, I know what you're worried about. You can rest assured. He told me that he will not only not stop you from maintaining contact with your adoptive parents, but he will also be pleased because he is pleased that his child is a person with a conscience and knows how to be grateful."

He also said that he was very grateful to your adoptive parents. Without them, you wouldn't exist. They raised you very well and taught you very well. He would personally thank them and acknowledge this as a family relationship.

"Jingcheng, you may not know your biological father well enough, or your biological father's family well enough, but I believe that once you do, you will be proud of him and grateful to have such a father."

"It has nothing to do with the size of his official position, but rather with his principles of conduct, his original aspirations and actions in governing the country."

Chen Jingcheng didn't know Li Zhixing very well, but he didn't expect Li Zhixing to have such a high opinion of him.

You should know that this kind of thing might be able to be concealed for a short time, but it can't be hidden from anyone in the long run.

You'll discover some truths once you spend enough time together.

But Li Zhixing spoke with absolute certainty and unwavering resolve, which showed that his respect and admiration for Chen Jingcheng's biological father came from the bottom of his heart.

Chen Jingcheng nodded slightly. He was going to see him anyway, so there was no point in saying anything else now, especially since the other person had saved him.

However, you should now be mentally prepared to know who he really is.

"Uncle Li, who is he?"

Upon hearing this, Li Zhixing nodded slightly, then looked at Chen Jingcheng with an extremely serious expression.

"Jingcheng, your biological father's name is Chen Min'en!"

Chen Min'en?

Chen Jingcheng frowned, feeling as if he had heard this name somewhere before.

However, since he was not an official in Qingjiang Province, Chen Jingcheng did not have a clear understanding of the situation.

A look of confusion immediately appeared on his face.

Seeing this, Li Zhixing gave a wry smile.

Indeed, Chen Jingcheng was too young and his position was too low, so he had no idea what the name Chen Min'en represented in officialdom.

But it doesn't matter, Chen Jingcheng will soon understand what those three words mean.

Looking at Chen Jingcheng's still somewhat immature and youthful face, Li Zhixing suddenly thought of something.

Perhaps in the not-too-distant future, the name Chen Jingcheng will also hold extraordinary significance, just like the name Chen Min'en!
