Chapter 32
A True Man Cannot Be Without Power for a Day, He Must Rise to Greatness!

Li Xiao Yue loosened Shen Lei’s arm at this moment, giving a sweet smile: “Lei Ge, I’m going to work. Let’s talk again tonight.”

Shen Lei was about to turn around and leave, but then he remembered what happened in the original timeline, so he asked Na Wei.

“Brother-in-law, did Qin Feng from your company hand over the product distribution work to you?”

Na Wei looked at Shen Lei in surprise, asking: “Yeah, he told me a few useless things early this morning and then handed the product distribution work over to me.

Even though our marketing department only focuses on planning and designing solutions, he doesn't care. He also said that Yang Ge specifically asked me to be in charge of this work.

By the way, how did you know?”

Shen Lei shook his head and said: “Last night, Qin Feng was chatting with someone. I passed by and heard him talking to someone. He wants to target you, he’s deliberately using you as a slave, making you carry all those heavy product boxes. It’s just to drive you away.”

Na Wei was still pondering, thinking about the reliability of Shen Lei’s words.

Li Xiao Yue, however, completely believed Shen Lei. She quickly said to Na Wei: “That Shen Lei wouldn’t deceive us. Qin Feng and his sister deliberately want to drive you away.

We can’t fall for his trap. Didn’t you see all those rules and regulations that Qin Feng has implemented these days? They are just to make things difficult.”

But Na Wei, this honest man, still had his doubts. He said with concern: “But Qin Feng told me that Yang Ge, the one we made sworn brothers with after drinking last night, specifically asked me to be in charge of this work.”

Shen Lei really wanted to tell Na Wei that the so-called Yang Ge was just like Qin Feng, they were both just playing him for a fool.

However, these words, if spoken, would be too hurtful.

Shen Lei said tactfully: “Brother-in-law, you’ve experienced so many banquets. You should understand that the things said after three cups of wine are not to be taken seriously.

The next day when the alcohol wears off, they will forget it.

I dare guarantee that you will see that Yang, when you see him later, his attitude towards you will be very cold.

So I advise you and Li Xiao Yue not to take this job, otherwise you will work yourself to death without any credit.

After all, this work is not something that your marketing department should be responsible for. It’s just that Qin Feng, that bastard, is deliberately making things difficult for you.”

The reason why Shen Lei was so earnestly trying to persuade Na Wei not to take this job was because he felt sorry for his girlfriend Li Xiao Yue and didn’t want her to suffer.

However, Na Wei was still stubborn and refused Shen Lei’s kindness: “I’ve already agreed with Qin Feng. I can’t go back on my word. This job, no matter how tiring it is, I must finish it.”

Shen Lei was helpless and could only tell Li Xiao Yue: “You are the one who does creative planning, you need to use your brain, there is no need to exert physical effort, there is no need to tire yourself.

Your brother-in-law is over 40 years old. You can’t tire his old bones.

Call me when you get to their store, I will find someone to support you.”

Li Xiao Yue was deeply in love with Shen Lei now. She could also strongly feel Shen Lei's love for her. She smiled sweetly: "Don't worry, I will call you when the time comes."

Na Wei then took Li Xiao Yue to Yang Ge’s store, the one they had been drinking with last night.

As a result, they discovered that Yang Ge didn't pay any attention to his warm greetings and was very cold towards him.

Moreover, Yang Ge’s people told them that it wasn’t just one store, they had to deliver the products to nine stores within two days.

These nine stores were scattered in different parts of Beijing. It was really a lot of running around for them.

Li Xiao Yue now had a wry smile on her face. She said to Na Wei: “Na Wei Ge, do you believe Shen Lei now?

I feel like Shen Lei's divorce was a turning point for him. He has become much smarter, like Zhuge Liang who can predict the future.

Didn’t you see how cold that Yang was to us?

And he also wants us to move so many things and deliver them to nine different places.”

Na Wei sighed deeply: “It seems that Shen Lei was right, that Qin Feng is deliberately trying to make things difficult for us.”

Li Xiao Yue said: “Na Wei Ge, why don’t I call Shen Lei now and ask him to send someone to help us?”

Originally, Na Wei wanted Li Xiao Yue to stay with him and overcome the difficulties, to bear some hardships.

But then he realized that it was his fault for not listening to Shen Lei, which put Li Xiao Yue in this passive situation.

Na Wei could only nod and say: “Then you call Shen Lei.”

Li Xiao Yue then called Shen Lei and said bitterly: “Lei Ge, you can really predict the future. What we are facing is exactly as you said, it’s very bad.

That Yang doesn’t even bother with us, and he wants us to deliver those products to nine different stores.

Seeing so many things, I just collapsed.”

Shen Lei smiled slightly on the other end of the phone and said in a doting tone: “Xiao Yue, I already knew.

I’ve already contacted a moving team. Send me the address of that store, and I will forward it to them. They will arrive soon.”

After Li Xiao Yue sent the address through WeChat, she couldn’t help but ask Shen Lei sweetly: “Why are you so good to me?”

Shen Lei smiled and said: “We’ve already agreed to date tonight. I don’t want you to be panting and exhausted.

I don’t want my princess to be treated like a horse or an ox by unscrupulous capitalists.”

Hearing Shen Lei say this, Li Xiao Yue’s heart felt warm and sweet. She couldn’t help but giggle and say sweetly:

“Then I will listen to you. Let’s use these people once, and we will charge the expenses to that Qin. We can’t let him exploit us for nothing.”

Shen Lei laughed heartily: “Xiao Yue, I like your 90s attitude of straightening out the workplace. Go for it!”

Li Xiao Yue felt very happy. She realized that Shen Lei was very different from Na Jun.

If it were Na Jun, he would definitely persuade her to be hardworking and dutiful, to be a willing horse or ox, to be completely devoted to working hard.

Shen Lei, however, would tell her not to be a willing horse or ox, to fight against the capitalists.

After hanging up the phone, Shen Lei sent the address of the store where Li Xiao Yue and the others were to the moving team and asked them to go there immediately to help.

As for Shen Lei himself, he was already at his unit. After eating lunch in the unit canteen, he immediately went to the archives office.

He remembered a lottery given to him by the system, which included a batch of very important old archives that were of great significance to the country. Once restored, they could be awarded the second-class merit.

Achieving the second-class merit would be very helpful for him to be promoted to the deputy director level.

Although Shen Lei was about to become a billionaire now, he was still unwilling to give up his position within the system.

As the saying goes, a true man can't be without power for a day. In this country, having power is more important than money, it has more status, more influence, and more security.

He still hoped that one day he could rise to the top, become a governor or even have great influence in the court.

And promotion from deputy director level to director level was the first crucial step.

Therefore, Shen Lei spent the whole afternoon meticulously restoring this batch of old archives.
