Chapter 260 Visiting the Commander
Ningjia Group —
The assistant brought Shen Zhengming a document to sign. After knocking on the door and entering, he saw his boss staring at the computer screen with a furrowed brow.
He assumed that President Shen was looking at some problematic project proposal, so he cautiously approached and handed over the document.
"Mr. Shen, these need your signature."
Shen Zhengming kept his eyes glued to the screen, not even glancing at the documents, and casually replied, "Yeah, leave it for now, I'll deal with it later."
The assistant hesitated for a moment, then said, "Mr. Shen, the first document needs your immediate review and signature. The sales department is waiting for it; once you sign it, they'll send it to their overseas clients."
Shen Zhengming reluctantly turned his gaze over, picked up a pen and wrote his name on the document, paying little attention to the terms and conditions.
The assistant couldn't help but glance sideways. What was President Shen looking at that made him so focused that he didn't even care about the important contract documents?
But the computer was facing away from him, so he couldn't see it at all. He could only take the documents that President Shen handed back and turn to leave.
Shen Zhengming was actually looking at the online content where netizens were raving about the pairing of Yan Zhixu and Liang Liangwei.
He racked his brains but couldn't figure out how Liang Liangwei and Yan Zhixu, the CEO of an international conglomerate, could be connected.
He had never been to the Liang family, nor had he ever heard this man's name from Liang Liangwei.
Why are netizens so keen to pair them up?
He looked away, lowered his eyes, and pinched the bridge of his nose.
Immediately, the webpage link was sent to the assistant who had just left, with the instruction: "Block any accounts that promote the CP relationship between these two, including those that post Weibo messages."
The assistant knew Liang Liangwei's identity as a secret shareholder in the company and assumed he was trying to clear up the rumors for the secret director. He replied, "Okay, Mr. Shen," and arranged for it to be done.
Shen Zhengming soon saw that many accounts on the webpage had been banned, and the corresponding Weibo content was basically gone. Only then did he relax and start working.

As it was nearing the end of the workday, the assistant came over to remind him, "Mr. Shen, would you like to change your clothes for tonight's social event?"
Shen Zhengming opened his schedule and looked at the list of engagements, then said, "Have the vice president go in my place. I have something come up tonight."
Assistant: "Yes, Mr. Shen."
After finishing his work, Shen Zhengming got up, dressed, and left.
He went to the underground parking garage and drove away in his Porsche.
An hour later, his car stopped outside the gate of a military compound.
I got out of the car and went to the guard post.
When the young soldier on guard saw him, he immediately saluted him, and the soldier returned the salute in a standard military manner.
Then he walked to the guard post next to him.
There was someone on duty in the guard post, who exchanged military salutes with him and asked with a smile, "Commander Shen, have you come to visit the Commander again?"
Shen Zhengming responded and cooperated by filling out the registration form. Soon, a message came from inside that he was allowed to enter. After another inspection, a young soldier accompanied him to Commander Liang's residence.
They soon arrived at the commander's compound. Shen Zhengming saluted the young soldier and said goodbye, "Thank you for your hard work."
Then, they easily entered through the gate and walked inside.
The lights were on inside. He went up and knocked on the door. A voice came from inside: "Debate? Come in."
Shen Zhengming pushed open the door and saw Commander Liang strolling slowly into the living room. He immediately saluted and said, "Greetings, Commander."
Commander Liang smiled and waved to him: "You've come quite quickly. The food is already prepared. Come and eat."
"it is good."
Shen Zhengming walked over and waited for Commander Liang to sit down before sitting down opposite him.
"I'm sorry, sir, I'm still late."
Commander Liang: "It's alright. It's snowing and nighttime, so we should drive slowly."
Aunt Fang brought over the wine that Commander Liang usually drank. Commander Liang took it, unscrewed the cap, and asked, "Want a drink?"
Shen Zhengming shook his head and said, "I didn't bring my assistant today. I have to drive back by myself, so I won't be able to accompany the chief."
Commander Liang didn't insist and poured himself a drink: "Okay, then having dinner with me is fine too."
Shen Zhengming noticed that Commander Liang was different today; his eyebrows and eyes were gentle, and the corners of his lips were slightly raised, as if he were quite happy.
"Has something good happened to the commander?"
Commander Liang glanced at him: "What do you mean?"
Shen Zhengming: "You seem very happy."
Commander Liang smiled and said, "Is it that obvious?"
Shen Zhengming: "Yes."
Commander Liang: "It's a pity you can't drink, otherwise you could have shared my joy."
He took a bite of food, then a sip of wine, before saying, "I found Weiwei. She came back the night before last. I hadn't heard from her for so long, and now that I've made contact with her, I'm naturally happy."
really.
Shen Zhengming: "Congratulations on your reunion, Chief."
Commander Liang: "You don't seem surprised at all."
Shen Zhengming: "The commander doesn't seem too surprised by my lack of surprise."
Commander Liang clicked his tongue: "A tongue twister, huh!"
He picked up a peanut, chewed it, snorted, and said, "Actually, you've known where Weiwei is for the past six months, haven't you? You just didn't tell me."
Shen Zhengming laughed: "You can't hide it from the leader."
Commander Liang: "Because you are too calm. If you didn't have any news about her either, you would definitely be anxious. So you thought you hadn't given anything away, but in fact you had already given something away."
Shen Zhengming took the wine bottle and personally filled his glass: "Actually, I met and had dinner with her yesterday. She told me about coming back to see you."
Commander Liang: "No wonder you came early today."
Shen Zhengming would visit him every month on a fixed date, but today he came 5 days early, which was rather unusual.
Commander Liang picked up his wine glass and took a small sip: "What did she talk to you about?"
Shen Zhengming: "She said that she actually regretted leaving home, but she was too proud to come back to the leader."
Commander Liang paused for a moment: "You think I'd believe that? You regret it and block me? You regret it and don't even make a phone call?"
Shen Zhengming smiled and said, "She apologized to you when she came back the night before last, right?"
Commander Liang's eyes flickered: "I was the one who sent people to pick her up first."
Shen Zhengming: "So, the Chief and Weiwei are the closest people in the world, how could they possibly have any grudges that last overnight?"
Commander Liang looked at him meaningfully and said, "Your purpose for coming here tonight seems to be different from usual."
Shen Zhengming chuckled and said, "What purpose could I possibly have? It's actually very simple: I just want to know that you two met and be happy for the Commander and Weiwei."
Commander Liang paused for a moment, then asked, "What else did you talk about?"
Shen Zhengming pondered for a moment and said, "I haven't actually been in much contact with her, or rather, I often send her messages, but she rarely replies. I only learned about her recent situation when we chatted yesterday. She's had a tough time these past six months; her salary is limited, and she still has a mortgage on her house..."
Commander Liang frowned: "How big is the house?"
Shen Zhengming: "More than 100 square meters."
Commander Liang: "She doesn't have enough money for the full payment?"
Shen Zhengming said pointedly, "Didn't you have her card frozen? She's on her own now, so it's hard for her to pay in full."
Commander Liang paused, his face darkening slightly, and said, "Serves her right! Let her be angry with me, let her run away from home, let her not live in her own house! Does she not have enough houses? Her mother left her several houses in Huacheng, but she just—"
He stopped halfway through his sentence and downed the rest of the wine in his glass in one gulp.
Shen Zhengming saw a hint of heartache and guilt in his eyes.
Commander Liang put down his glass: "Pour me another one."
Shen Zhengming, however, kept his hand on the bottle and didn't move: "Commander, her card—"
Commander Liang glanced at him: "She hasn't even asked me to unfreeze her, what's your rush?"
