Chapter 245: The Perfect Coincedence

Translator: _Min_Editor: Yukira_

Hucheng was a small place.

In such a small place, good news and bad news spread equally as fast.

The news of a famous entrepreneur, Jiang Chen, visiting his relatives and donating a five million school building to his alma mater instantly circulated in this small place.

There were plenty of people who made money in recent years, but there were not many who thought about their hometown. For a time, various titles such as ”conscientious businessman” was named after Jiang Chen. As such, even the city officials also specially came to visit him.

They didn’t receive any news of Jiang Chen returning to Hucheng to visit his relatives. After all, the General Staff Department kept his itinerary an absolute secret. Not only the city officials, but even the media also didn't receive a single bit of information. Not until the cheap Wu Zechen, who benefited the most from this, held a school ceremony and made a conference did the reporters receive the news.

For a time, the previously quiet Jinsha Steel Plant residential area was instantly in an uproar.

The city officials visiting him sent him a plaque of two meters in length in recognition of his outstanding contribution to the development of his hometown. In response, Jiang Chen was naturally gratified.

As for the mayor wearing a huge smile, he immediately proposed potential partnerships and stated he was willing to provide additional generous policies for the staff of Future Technology.

Jiang Chen only smiled at the offer proposed by the mayor and didn’t outright agreed. He just politely expressed his gratitude towards the government's enthusiastic reception, but because the development strategy of the company must be discussed with the company executives, he could not commit just yet.

But what Jiang Chen didn’t expect was that after the city officials left, the district leaders also came for a visit. This made Jiang Chen at a loss on how to react as he didn’t expect that just by donating a school building on a whim would make his home feel like a tea shop with people constantly visiting him. The steel plant leaders, the directors of the board of education, and the relatives he hadn't met before all visited him.

Simply put, these past few days was annoying the heck out of him. He was planning to donate a road before he left, but given the present state of affairs, it would need to wait until he left.

But seeing how happy his parents were, he did not say anything.

His home had been quite uneventful these recent years as the two elderlies lived a rather secluded life. Because they were just average workers, the relatives from their hometown didn’t really visit as they would only chat with their neighbors while they were shopping. When did they ever experience something of this scale?

Not only those relatives who came from different places came and stopped, but even those fulltime top officials came running to their door to ask about their well-being. Astonished by the treatment that their son was receiving, they finally had an idea on how successful their son was.

But even then, there was no escaping the matchmaking…

…

”You made such a bold move, and this increased the difficulty of our work.” Leaning against the Santana, Dagger grinned with a cigarette in his mouth.

”There's nothing I can do about it. Should l pay you overtime?” Jiang Chen jived and took out his electronic key and opened the car door.

”Mr. Jiang, it's against the protocol to bribe civil servants.” Miao Jun coughed.

Dagger didn’t pursue the topic any longer. He flicked the cigarette and asked nonchalantly, ”Is the software done?”

”You're gonna have to ask the overseas team.” Standing in the doorway, Jiang Chen s shrugged.

”Good luck.” Dagger nodded and gave a cursory glance at the passenger seat. ”Where is your assistant?”

”I’m going to matchmaking today.” Jiang Chen’s expression looked somewhat helpless.

Miao Jun burst out laughing, his arm on the steering wheel.

”What era are we currently in?”

Jiang Chen did not bother about him, put up the car window, and started the car.

Dagger extinguished the cigarette butt and got into the car as well. He patted Miao Jun on the shoulder and said dismissively, ”Follow him.”

The location of the matchmaking was in the downtown of Hucheng, roughly 20 kilometers away from the small area where Jiang Chen came from.

In the entire Hucheng, only the Jialin commercial area was still considered flourishing. Although he wasn’t planning on agreeing, he would still give the other her due respect. He wouldn’t just find a random KFC to purposely anger her away.
