Chapter 7145
Wang Li Has a Short Temper
The power structure of the entire western region has undergone tremendous changes as a result, much like a gamble with a reshuffled deck.
Because he is Wang Li!
The name struck Zhou Keying like a thunderbolt.
Wang Li, who controls one of the economic lifelines of the western region and wields immense influence within the provincial government!
He is like a towering mountain in the western region's economic landscape, controlling the life and death of countless enterprises.
One of his decisions could cause an industry to rise or fall; one of his words could change the fate of countless people.
Within the provincial government, his opinions often play a crucial role, serving as an indispensable driving force behind numerous decisions.
How could she not be shocked and terrified by the appearance of such a powerful figure here?
Zhou Keying felt her heart pounding in the tense and subtle atmosphere of the scene, as if it were about to burst out of her chest.
When she saw Wang Li and other important figures get out of the car, her inner shock surged like a tidal wave.
She turned her head sharply and looked eagerly at Xiao Chen beside her, her eyes full of inquiry and surprise.
But they found that the man's expression remained unchanged throughout, as calm as a still ancient well.
The ancient well was deep and quiet, and no matter how fierce the wind and rain outside, it could not stir up a ripple on its surface.
His lips were slightly downturned, with his usual indifference. His eyes were calm and deep, as if they held endless secrets, yet he seemed completely unconcerned about everything that was happening before him.
Even when that important figure got out of the car, the people around him showed expressions of shock and awe, and some even unconsciously took a half step back to show their respect.
But his eyes didn't show the slightest ripple, he was completely like a detached bystander.
It was as if the scene before him was nothing more than an insignificant farce, and he had merely happened to pass by and glanced at it unintentionally.
This guy... doesn't he know what surprise is?
Zhou Keying felt both angry and anxious, as if a fire was burning inside her.
Even if you're very confident, shouldn't you at least show some basic courtesy and respect when someone of Wang Li's stature personally attends?
After all, Wang Li holds a pivotal position in the western region, and his decision could affect the fate of countless people. His arrival should be a significant event that deserves our attention.
Zhou Keying was both anxious and angry, and no longer cared about anything else.
She quietly stretched out her slender hand, her fingers white and long, like tender bamboo shoots just sprouting in spring.
She lightly poked Xiao Chen's soft flesh at the waist, a poke that carried her current anxiety and dissatisfaction.
Then, in a barely audible voice, barely audible to the two of them, she asked urgently with disbelief, "You... how do you know Wang Li?!"
"Why did he come?!"
The voice was full of doubt, as if questioning a miracle that shouldn't have happened.
Xiao Chen seemed to be pulled back from his thoughts by her actions, as if he had suddenly woken up from a distant dream.
He glanced at her sideways, a hint of lingering confusion in his eyes. Then he shrugged nonchalantly, the movement casual and natural, as if he were doing something utterly ordinary.
His tone was flat, as if he were discussing the nice weather, without a trace of emotion: "Oh, him."
"His name is Wang Li."
“I ran into him somewhere last time. We barely exchanged a few words when he seemed to have a bad temper and almost got into a fight with me.”
The words were spoken casually, as if it were just a trivial matter, not worth taking seriously at all.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Keying was struck dumb, her delicate body trembled violently, and her originally dignified and elegant posture appeared somewhat flustered at this moment.
She abruptly turned to look at Xiao Chen, her movements hurried and somewhat disoriented, as if she couldn't accept these absurd words without immediately seeing Xiao Chen's expression.
Those clear, beautiful eyes widened instantly, their once lively gaze now filled with shock and disbelief, like two startled black gems trembling violently in their sockets.
It's filled with disbelief, as if you're reading about a patient who has suddenly gone mad, with unfocused eyes, strange behavior, and illogical words; or perhaps a reckless fool who has blindly and fearlessly entered a world he can't comprehend at all!
She even subconsciously wanted to reach out and touch Xiao Chen's forehead, her movements filled with a sense of panic and urgency, like a mother worried about her sick child, wanting to see if he was delirious from a fever, or if he was overwhelmed by this sudden situation.
Is Wang Li short-tempered?
That's more than just a bad temper!
In the power circles of the entire western region, Political Commissar Wang Lizhou's name was renowned. He was like a volcano that could erupt at any moment, dangerous yet awe-inspiring.
Everyone knows he's a notorious "powder keg," easily ignited, like a bomb with a lit fuse, ready to explode at any moment.
His thunderous rage was enough to silence everyone in the entire conference room, so much so that they didn't dare to even breathe!
When he erupted in anger in the conference room, his deep and authoritative voice, like thunderclaps, echoed in everyone's ears, making their hearts tremble.
His eyes were sharp and cold, as if they could pierce through one's soul, making people afraid to look directly at him.
His stubbornness and domineering nature are ingrained in his bones, like an indestructible piece of steel, whose essence cannot be changed no matter how the outside world tries to mold it.
His decisions are like ironclad rules, allowing no one to question or refute them.
But this guy in front of me actually said that he had a conflict with Wang Li and that they "almost got into a fight"?
It was like dropping a giant bomb on a calm lake, creating a huge upheaval.
This is simply the most ridiculous thing in the world!
It's as absurd and laughable as someone claiming to be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun or snatch a precious pearl from the Dragon King.
What an international joke!
Throughout the entire western region, from the highest-ranking officials who wield immense power and control the political direction of their regions, every decision they make affects the fate of countless people; to the wealthiest merchants who are richer than a country, wielding immense influence in the business world and possessing vast commercial empires.
Who would dare to actually fight Wang Li?
That's not just commendable courage, it's outright suicide!
This is like someone knowing there's a bottomless abyss ahead, yet still jumping in without hesitation. Is it because they think their life is too long, or because they feel their family business is too stable and needs some excitement?
If one were to fight Wang Li, the consequences would be unimaginable. Not only would one's career or business empire collapse instantly, but one's family would also be implicated and plunged into an abyss of no return.
However, to Xiao Chen, these things were like a gentle breeze across a lake, causing only a few insignificant ripples before returning to calm; they were of no concern to him whatsoever. (End of Chapter)
