Chapter Forty-two Pulling Relationship

  The second update is seeking recommendations and collections!

  In early September, the city was cooler than some big cities in the afternoon, but only slightly. The elderly were still wearing vests and shorts, fanning themselves with large fans under the shade of trees, and passersby tried to walk in the shade as much as possible. At this time, an old 28 bicycle suddenly came from afar, the young man pedaling the bike was panting heavily, while the girl sitting on the back seat was laughing continuously, occasionally shouting: "Faster, faster!"

  "You, you think I'm a donkey? Ride, can't ride anymore!" The young man's clothes were already soaked through, hot enough to stick his tongue out.

  "A big and capable guy like you can't even ride this far with me, and now you're exhausted? You're useless!" the girl in the backseat complained.

  "This, this point, the road!" The young man stopped the car and panted: "Sister, we are going to China Bank, from my store to there by bus it will take half an hour, look at this, we're almost there! You said I rode how far!"

  Song Muqing suddenly asked Chen Zhiyuan if he had a bicycle, and Chen Zhiyuan replied that he did. Song Muqing then insisted on riding the bike with him to their destination. Chen Zhiyuan reluctantly agreed and brought out his uncle Li Jian's old 28-type bicycle. He thought the journey would be tiring but manageable at a slow pace. However, Song Muqing sat behind him, urging him to ride faster like a donkey driver, and Chen Zhiyuan couldn't resist her nagging. As a result, he ended up pedaling furiously and became exhausted.

  "It's also quite far away, otherwise I'll ride and take you with me!" Song Muqing thought for a moment and smiled.

  "Are you kidding me? Look at what you're wearing!" Chen Zhiyuan said with a bad tone.

  "Also, the skirt I'm wearing, if I ride a bike it will definitely be see-through. Alas, like this, you take off your pants and let me wear them, that way they won't be see-through!" Song Muqing said out her good idea.

  "I'm going to take off your sister's clothes, are you asking me to be naked?" Chen Zhiyuan was infuriated by the weird thoughts in this girl's head.

  "Aren't you wearing underwear?"

  "You're not wearing underwear!"

  "That's it, you're wearing underwear, so you're not considered naked!"

  "You're dreaming!" Chen Zhiyuan hummed and continued riding his bike forward.

  "Hey? Haven't you seen 'My Sassy Girl'? The male lead even wore the female lead's shoes! I won't mind wearing your pants!" Song Muqing still didn't want to give up on his good idea.

  "I'm fed up!" Chen Da Guan Ren roared, his feet exerting force, and Lao 28 let out a creaking sound.

  Two men came to the door of Tang Yansheng, Chen Zhiyuan let Song Muqing wait outside, he knocked on the door and heard Tang Yansheng say "come in", then pushed the door open.

  There were six people in Tāng Yánshēng's office, including Tāng Yánshēng himself. Seeing that Chen Zhìyuǎn was sweating profusely, he said: "Zhìyuǎn, what's wrong with you? You're all sweaty, go wash up over there."

  Chen Zhiyuan felt that his face was also sticky and uncomfortable, so he went to the washbasin in Tang Yansheng's room to wash his face.

  "Hey, Zhiyuan, these are all my old friends. Look at their bellies, they're all generals' guts! I heard your medicine is good, so I got them to contact you, wanting to buy some!" Tang Yansheng handed Chen Zhiyuan a handkerchief.

  Just then, Song Muqing pushed open the door and walked in, asking: "What are you buying?"

  Those present recognized Song Muqing as soon as she came in, and laughed: "Muqing, how did you have time to run to Uncle Tang's place!" After that, he introduced her to the others sitting there: "This is Secretary Song's daughter!"

  Those few quickly got up and asked well, the city party secretary's daughter is not someone they can see casually every day, having this opportunity they still didn't come to fawn.

  Song Muqing chatted with them for a few sentences, then ran to Chen Zhiyuan's side, pulled his hand and shook it: "What do they want to buy from you?"

  Tang Yansheng thought that several people were quite particular, and when he saw Song Muqing's intimate behavior with Chen Zhiyuan, his evaluation of Chen Zhiyuan increased a lot in his heart. This kid might be Song Weiqing's future son-in-law, and today he must establish this relationship.

  Song Muqing didn't particularly like Chen Zhiyuan, but she thought he was quite interesting and had a few good impressions of him. Adding to that, she felt that his relationship with Su Bingxuan was somewhat unusual, which made her curious about him. She was also bored at home, so when she received a call from her father in the afternoon asking her to tell Chen Zhiyuan to come over for dinner, she went straight to find him. Earlier, when she grabbed Chen Zhiyuan's hand, it was an unintentional move, after all, she was just a sophomore girl with a pure heart. Who would have thought that this unintentional action would be misinterpreted by those old officials, thinking that she and Chen Zhiyuan were in a romantic relationship?

  Chen Zhiyuan felt very uneasy under the gaze of those few people, and struggled free from Song Muqing's hand: "Nothing, nothing, you go out and play by yourself, we have something to discuss!"

  Song Muqing immediately pouted: "What are you guys talking about? It's something that can't be seen by others, right? I'm not going out, humph!"

  Tang Yansheng was afraid that the young couple would make a scene in his office, so he hastily mediated: "Zhiyuan, why did you hide this from Muqing? It's not a big deal. Muqing, Zhiyuan has a kind of weight loss medicine that is very effective. Just look at Uncle Tang, he's lost a lot of weight after taking it for just a few days. So we were thinking of buying some from Zhiyuan!"

  "You still sell weight loss medicine?" Song Muqing's small mouth opened in surprise.

  Chen Zhiyuan looked at her cherry-red lips and pink tongue, and his heart felt another wave of turmoil. What the hell is wrong with me today? Why am I thinking about these things? It seems like I need to solve my bachelor status as soon as possible.

  "Yes, the medicine from Zhiyuan is really effective. By the way, I haven't introduced you yet!" Tang Yansheng said, pointing to those people: "This is Director Zhao of the Health Bureau, this is Director Gong of the Public Security Bureau, this is Director Ji of the Education Bureau, this is Director Zhang of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, and this is Captain Qian of the Municipal Criminal Police Detachment!"

  Chen Zhiyuan wasn't very interested in the first few people, but he was somewhat interested in Qian Duizhang from the criminal police team. This guy weighed over 200 pounds, how could he possibly fight with criminals? There are too many strange things happening these days.

  A few people again said some polite words to Chen Zhiyuan, such as "young and promising" and "great future prospects". Chen Zhiyuan thought to himself that these people were all heads of powerful departments in the city government, and his own guild would have to deal with them after it opened. It was better to build a personal relationship with them today, so he gave them the medicine for free, which would make things easier to discuss in the future.

  "A few directors, heads, and captains, this medicine isn't worth much money, so don't mention it to me. You're all good friends of my Uncle Tang, if I were to accept your money, wouldn't that be slapping Uncle Tang in the face? Today, I've brought just enough for each person, one bottle per person is definitely sufficient. So let me tell you the dosage: Director Zhao, you take two pills once a day; Director Gong, you're a bit heavier, so you need to take it twice a day, also two pills... Chen Zhiyuan instructed each person on their individual dosages, not because he was afraid they would overdose, but because these people might take the medicine back home and give it to their family members, who hadn't signed any contract, and if they took it, it would definitely have no effect."

  Tang Yansheng also had some doubts about the different dosage for each person, and asked: "Zhiyuan, why is the dosage of this medicine different for everyone?"

  "Uncle Tang, this weight loss medicine is also a kind of medicine, of course it needs to be distributed according to each person's physique. If you take too little, it won't work; if you take too much, it will harm your body!" Chen Zhiyuan made up on the spot.

  "Then let me tell you about your aunt's figure, I still want to buy some for her!" Tang Yansheng's wife at home was also beautiful like a flower when she was young, but after giving birth to children, her weight gain was faster than his. Now it really has no interest at all, thinking in her heart that if she loses weight, maybe she will have some interest again!

  "Uncle Tang, I've told you before, this medicine is only for delivery, not for sale. You can wrap up a few bureau chiefs, directors, and team leaders, but if you say buy, I'm leaving!" Chen Zhiyuan said with a smile.

  Tang Yansheng thought to himself, "What kind of wine shop is Chen Zhiyuan going to open? I can help him with some old friends. Instead of giving him the medicine money, I'll take care of him in terms of taxes and sanitation later on. This will save him a lot of money and trouble. It's also a personal favor, and our relationship will be established. In the future, we'll often go to his hotel to support him, and our relationship will become even stronger." Thinking of this, he laughed: "Alright, Zhiyuan, that's enough from us uncles. When your hotel opens, we'll go to support you. If there's anything difficult, just tell us, and we old guys can still get things done. However, Zhiyuan, your aunt also wants to use some of this medicine. Let me tell you her weight, and you tell me the dosage?"

  "Tang uncle, this matter can't be settled just by talking about it. I need to take a look at the person, and when Auntie has time, you give me a call, and I'll go directly to your house to deliver the medicine. Then, based on Auntie's physical condition, we can determine the dosage. It's the same for several uncles, if there's someone in need at home, just one phone call, and I'll send it over!" Chen Zhiyuan said this because he had no other choice. If they didn't sign a contract, it wouldn't be effective, so it was better to go to their homes himself to get them to sign the contract.

  Chen Zhiyuan took out the contract he had prepared in advance from his bag and asked each of them to sign it. He calculated the fat content of these people in his mind, taking a little bit from each person, which would be enough to exchange for that medical suit by Sunday.

  Song Muqing followed Chen Zhiyuan out of the door and couldn't help but ask: "Is that medicine of yours really effective?"

  "That's necessary, look at Tang Xingchang, hasn't he lost a lot of weight?"

  "Then give me some too!"

  "Who is it for?"

  "Give it to my dad to eat. Look at how fat he is now, his belly is almost as big as a pregnant woman's! My mom told him to lose weight but he won't listen, all he does is eat and drink, honestly!"

  Two people walked and talked as they went straight to Song Weiqing's home.
