Assumption Of Office

At night, Su Bei laid on the bed and turned on the radio app on her mobile phone. She wanted to find out what kind of person the new governor was.

She closed her eyes slightly and involuntarily caressed her lower abdomen under the quilt.

Her tummy was unnoticeable, in particular, when she was lying down. No one could tell that she was four months pregnant.

However, Su Bei could clearly sense the little fellow in her stomach.

The night was as silent as the sea except for the clear voice of the host on the radio.

"The governor, Liang Xinchen, will be taking over the office tomorrow. He was born to a military family. He had won the championship, along with his team, in the national arms combat exercises with various clever strategies and tactics played. Subsequently, he was transferred to the West and turned the desolate area to a bustling and prosperous region in six years. To everyone's amazement, Governor Liang is not even in his thirties yet."

Su Bei unlocked her eyebrows. How young!

"Lately, Mr. Hua Jinan, who was born to the first family business in the world, visited the city. It was said that Hua's already established a subsidiary in Liang City. But Mr. Hua's arrival was much unexpected to the business world. According to rumors, the whereabouts of the Hua family was always a secret since they had emigrated many years ago. In particular, the whereabouts of this business tycoon is a mystery. He was said to have controlled half of Hua's owned businesses, and he might be the next successor of Old Hua. Soon, he would be the one leading Hua's!"

Mr. Hua!

Su Bei repeated the name to herself. His last name was also Hua!

"Little fellow, can this be your daddy?" asked Su Bei as she patted her belly.

Then she shook her head. That person is some tycoon. How could a famous person like him pester her?

***

The sun was shining, and the weather was clear.

Two men were sitting face to face in the spacious Cadillac. Between them was a table with fine red wine.

One of the men had refined features and a pair of edged eyes. His smile was full of sincerity as he spoke, "Mr. Hua, thank you for coming to Liang City. Here's a toast to you."

Hua Jinan revealed a profound smile. "I'm here not solely because of your invitation, but because I'm also a businessman."

He did not have to spell out everything.

The other man took a sip of the red wine with grace. "Ye Qi, do you have to draw the line so clearly?"

Hua Jinan let loose his locked eyebrows. No one had called him this name for a long time. Not since he exited the Special Forces.

"I'm a straightforward person. All debts must be clear between brothers. This is me!"

That man nodded. "This is indeed the style of Ye Qi. You can rest assured that half of the buildings in this country will be under Hua's if you can turn Liang City into a modern metropolis in two years."

Hua Jinan lit a cigarette. His expression was calm and composed that even the smoke he puffed out seemed elegant and relaxed.

He arched his lips into a smile. "I guarantee that Liang City will progress into a city comparable to the capital within a year!"

He sounded confident.

The man smiled with satisfaction. "That's a deal!"

"As a governor, you've avoided those people who were supposed to pick you up. Aren't you afraid there will be trouble if you step foot out of my luxurious car as soon as you arrive on your first day of work?" asked Hua Jinan.

The other man was the governor, Liang Xinchen, who was supposed to assume his office today.

He raised his eyebrow and asked, "Why are you here to pick me up then? You should know that I wouldn't dare to reject a God of Wealth like you!"

Hua Jinan chuckled. "Well, there wasn't a lot going on lately, so it was quite boring."
