Chapter 798: Chapter 787: Caused Trouble

Song Yun didn’t mind, nor did he look at the so-called deputy director, and instead said to Lin Heping, “Director Lin, you guys take your ti drinking, I’m heading out first.”

“Alright, alright, I’ll co over to your place later for a drink.” Lin Heping nodded with a smile.

Song Yun turned and walked towards an exit nearby, looking as if he was slightly overwheld by alcohol, while Lin Jia slightly supported him. Together, they left the hall.

“Old Lin, this young man seems quite ordinary to . How could you so easily hand over your daughter to him?” The deputy director sneered at Song Yun’s back and said.

“Hehe, as long as my daughter likes him, it’s fine.” Lin Heping replied ambiguously. Since people had misunderstood, he found no need to explain. What identity did Song Yun have? If people misunderstood him, it seed that he could actually be taking advantage.

“In my opinion, your daughter should find soone whose status matches your family’s. Jiajia, this child, is much more outstanding than her peers. I really don’t know what you’re thinking, sigh.” The deputy director shook his head as he spoke.

Lin Heping let out a small laugh but didn’t speak. Others looking down on Song Yun was their business. If soone wanted to give Song Yun the chance to play the fool, there was no need for Lin Heping to stop them, right?

But the station director couldn’t stand it any longer and picked up his phone, pressing buttons back and forth. Soon after, the deputy director’s phone rang.

The deputy director was sowhat surprised. Who could be texting him? He glanced at the sender and saw that it was the provincial station director sitting not too far beside him, which made him even more puzzled.

Opening the ssage, there wasn’t much content, but after reading it, the deputy director’s face turned pale.

“T-that person just now… was Song Yun?” The deputy director’s voice wavered slightly, and beads of sweat suddenly appeared on his forehead.

“Yes, exactly Song Yun.” Lin Heping nodded, saying, “How co, don’t you know him? I thought you knew him!”

“I-I don’t know him! I really don’t know him!” The deputy director was close to tears, thinking, if only I had known that person was Song Yun earlier, would I have acted like such a fool?

“Oh really? What’s all this about then!” Lin Heping took the rare opportunity to speak sarcastically, “I thought you knew him, he seed to be a big shot, and I thought you weren’t happy with him and wanted to put him in his place. Just now, after drinking, I was wondering why you were so gutsy. Turns out you don’t know him?”

The deputy director had no ti to worry about whether Lin Heping was being sarcastic; he realized he’d made a mistake, a very serious one!

“Why didn’t you guys tell

earlier!” The deputy director’s face was full of regret and fear, “I-I… no, I need to go offer him a drink now!”

“He’s already left, didn’t you see just now?” Lin Heping said, “Earlier, Song Yun drank at least a litre and a half of white liquor, even if one can drink, they probably need to go throw up. Sigh, Song Yun, this kid, is straightforward, he never holds grudges when drinking with others.”

Lin Heping’s words sounded so harsh to the deputy director, but he didn’t dare argue with Lin Heping, because the tone of Lin Heping’s voice suggested that he was quite close to Song Yun.

This was Lin Heping’s skill in speaking. He didn’t directly say he was good friends with Song Yun; simply saying “Song Yun, this kid, is straightforward, never holds grudges when drinking with others.” conveyed their close relationship. This sentence revealed a few things:

First, Lin Heping was intimate with Song Yun, which could be seen from the first sentence. If they weren’t close, would you say “this kid” about soone?

Second, Lin Heping had drunk with Song Yun many tis, which was evident from the last sentence. Never holding grudges implies they’ve shared drinks at least twice! Otherwise, there wouldn’t be a “never”.

These are linguistic hints that are complex, involving logic and psychology. An example: a boss encourages employees, saying, work well and be like XXX, he received a bonus of one million. This statent carries so misleading hints. In truth, hard work and getting a bonus don’t have a causal relationship without extraneous things being removed. But if you’re not careful, you’ll take the boss’s words as so sort of promise, thinking if you work hard like XXX, you’ll get a bonus of one million.

This stuff is too complex, so we’ll just ntion it briefly here without going into detail.

Anyway, the deputy director now believed Lin Heping was very close to Song Yun, so he stopped putting on airs and said to Lin Heping with a hint of flattery, “Old Lin, I really didn’t an it earlier, you have to help

explain to Song Yun!”

“Sigh, this could be difficult then. Song Yun, this kid, although straightforward, he’s very clear-cut about love and hate. If soone crosses him, he won’t let them off easy, and Song Yun’s strength is in controlling emotions. It’s hard for anyone to tell if he’s really angry or truly happy. You… sigh, I really thought you did it on purpose earlier. How about this, when I go offer a drink later, why don’t you co with . I’ll say sothing good for you, see if I can ease his grudge.”

“That would be best, thank you, Old Lin!” The deputy director expressed gratitude, and with just a few words from Lin Heping, without any cost, secured the favor of an official. The nuances of politics are indeed profound!

While the deputy director was fearful, Song Yun outside was quite cheerful.

Was Song Yun drunk? Not at all, his physical strength was slowly recovering, and he felt his power growing almost every day. As of now, Song Yun and Lin Jia were standing in a dressing room outside the performance stage.

Song Yun, with a playful smile, hugged Lin Jia’s waist while saying, “Now that there’s nobody here, should we discuss sothing interesting?”

“What kind of thing?” Lin Jia slightly turned her body, freeing herself from Song Yun’s grasp, lightly perched on a dressing table, and said, “Though there’s nobody here now, soon there will be many people. Whatever you want to do, there seems to be not enough ti.”

“Haha, we’ll talk about that later. Tell , why did that damn deputy director want to give

a hard ti just now? It seems you know?” Song Yun asked.
