Upon this realization, Tang Yueming was utterly astonished.
Now he was almost certain that the Old ng ntioned by Lan Pinghai just now must undoubtedly be Mr. ng from the ng family in Tiannan!
Only he could make Lan Pinghai lower his stance so greatly, and only he was worthy of making Lan Pinghai show such respect toward Zhu Fei, who had saved Old ng.
Others might not know how powerful Zhu Fei’s dical skills were, but Tang Yueming knew very clearly.
With Zhu Fei’s dical skills, it was absolutely possible to save Mr. ng from Lan Pinghai’s account.
Tang Yueming was excited and thrilled, but not far away, Yu Nianwei looked like a frost-stricken eggplant, not only wilted but also with a face ashen and defeated.
He could never have dread that Zhu Fei, who appeared to be just an ordinary student in his eyes, would have such a terrifying background.
Even Lan Pinghai, the top leader of Lan City, needed to bend over backward to please him—how could he, a re director of the health bureau, afford to offend him easily?
The mont Yu Nianwei thought about this, he couldn’t help but shudder inside.
Suddenly, Yu Nianwei rembered the words Zhu Fei had said to him earlier.
"I’m giving you a chance, now, imdiately, apologize to Uncle Tang, or else, even if you want to apologize later, there will be no chance."
So... so the words he said just now were all true, not the arrogance he had thought.
Instantly, Yu Nianwei’s face turned pale, and a trace of fear subtly appeared in his eyes.
...
"Hehe, Secretary Lan is too kind. Mr. ng is now considered one of my elders, there’s no need for us to be so formal."
At this mont, Zhu Fei had already shaken hands with Lan Pinghai and spoke with a smile.
In fact, given the current relationship between Zhu Fei and Mr. ng, calling it a friendship oblivious to age difference wasn’t an exaggeration.
However, such a thing, spoken aloud, was too unbelievable, and Zhu Fei was not the type to boast casually, so he referred to Mr. ng as his elder.
Yet, Zhu Fei’s light and breezy deanor made others in attendance feel even more mystified.
Perhaps only Lan Pinghai himself did not feel much about it.
After all, Mr. ng had once told him so things about Zhu Fei, knowing that Zhu Fei was no ordinary person and could not be judged by common standards.
Imdiately, Lan Pinghai laughed heartily and nodded, saying, "Since Mr. Zhu has said so, then I, Lan Pinghai, shall not ntion it further."
"By the way, Mr. Zhu, you wouldn’t mind addressing you this way, would you?"
"Hiss..."
Hearing Lan Pinghai’s words, including Gu Tianyu present, everyone couldn’t help but gasp.
Their eyes, full of shock, could never have imagined that Lan Pinghai would go to such lengths to befriend Zhu Fei, even calling him ’brother.’
Yet, what shocked those present even more was that facing Lan Pinghai’s suggestion, Zhu Fei actually smiled and nodded.
"Sure, Brother Lan, since you have the intention, I, Zhu Fei, naturally have no objection."
Hearing Zhu Fei refer to him as "Brother Lan," Lan Pinghai was clearly very pleased, and upon hearing this, he once again laughed heartily.
After laughing, Lan Pinghai finally shifted the conversation to the current situation.
"Mr. Zhu, when I ca in earlier, I seed to hear that there was an issue here. What exactly happened? Could you please tell ? If there’s anything I can help with, just let know."
"Yes, there is indeed sothing going on right now that requires your help for justice, Brother Lan."
Zhu Fei nodded and without any hesitation, he completely relayed to Lan Pinghai how Yu Nianwei had targeted Tang Yueming and threatened him.
Upon hearing this, Lan Pinghai’s face imdiately darkened.
He looked towards Yu Nianwei not far away, his tone low and said, "Yu Nianwei, was there any mistake in what Mr. Zhu just ntioned about you?"
He didn’t ntion the imprint of a slap on Yu Nianwei’s face but instead focused directly on the incident involving Tang Yueming. He did this to support Zhu Fei and resolve the issue with Yu Nianwei for Tang Yueming.
"Haha, Secretary Lan, do we even need to ask? Didn’t you hear Yu Nianwei saying he wanted to expel this student Zhu from the school when we ca in?"
"The thing that even I, as the head of education, never thought of doing, Yu Nianwei wanted to do. It seems that Director Yu really enjoys a grand display of authority."
Standing aside, Gu Tianyu also spoke up. As soon as he opened his mouth, he pointed out sothing Yu Nianwei couldn’t refute, making Yu Nianwei’s already pale face turn even paler.
"Hmph! So it is true, Yu Nianwei, you are utterly presumptuous!"
Lan Pinghai snorted coldly, the anger apparent on his face.
First, he sent an appreciative look towards Gu Tianyu beside him, then continued with a stern face, speaking to Yu Nianwei who was not far away:
"Yu Nianwei, I think you are currently unsuitable to continue serving as the head of the Health Departnt. For now, put aside your current work— the organization will reconsider your new position later."
As soon as Lan Pinghai finished speaking, Yu Nianwei’s face turned completely ashen.
Like a prisoner who had just been sentenced to death, Yu Nianwei instantly lost all vigor and collapsed weakly to the ground.
He knew that he was completely finished.
Having offended soone he shouldn’t have, his future in the entire officialdom of Lan City would be extrely difficult.
Yet, what made Yu Nianwei most afraid was not this; it was that over the years, he had been engaging in unclean practices under the table.
If Lan Pinghai decided to investigate him at that ti, his end would certainly be dire.
It must be said that having been the head of the Health Departnt for so many years, Yu Nianwei was very clear about so unwritten rules of officialdom.
He wasn’t wrong—Lan Pinghai indeed was contemplating investigating him covertly.
With so matters, Lan Pinghai would either not do them at all or, if he did, he would ensure they were done thoroughly and without leaving any lingering problems!
"Where do you think you’re going?"
Just then, Zhu Fei’s figure appeared in front of Zhang Rongtao and He Guang, who were trying to sneak away.
With an amused expression, he looked at Zhang Rongtao and the others, who had already turned a pale shade of blue, and slowly said:
"I’ve already told you, you can leave if you want, but please apologize to my friend first. Otherwise, we’re not done with the earlier matter."
"You... you are being too outrageous!" He Guang’s face was full of anger and frustration. Just as he was about to say more, Zhang Rongtao pulled his arm and turned to Zhu Fei, saying:
"Fine, I agree to your terms."
