Chapter 247: Chapter 246: How Much Is a High School Dropout Really Worth?

This time.

Uncle Tian didn’t stop Tian Xiaowu again.

Instead, he patted his son’s shoulder and said,

”This time, I’m going with you!”

Compared to his son’s current naivete,

as a man who had knocked around in the real world for so many years,

Uncle Tian had already vaguely sensed that there was something extraordinary about Lin Feng’s identity.

The manager was a very busy man.

Without a contact number, it was impossible to even get a meeting with him.

His son, Tian Xiaowu, had only ever managed to find the manager by cornering him as he was coming to or from work.

Lin Feng gave Su Ruoxi a look.

Su Ruoxi had long been very supportive of some of Tian Xiaowu’s ideas.

She was also quite certain of Tian Xiaowu’s talent.

So, upon seeing Lin Feng’s expression, Su Ruoxi decisively took out her phone and called the manager of Zone C.

After stating the location clearly,

Su Ruoxi hung up the phone directly.

At this point, even someone as slow on the uptake as Tian Xiaowu sensed that something was off.

She had the manager’s direct number.

And she had clearly used a commanding tone when she called.

It was enough to prove that the two people before him were definitely not the ordinary office workers he had taken them for.

Tian Xiaowu looked cautiously at Su Ruoxi and Lin Feng and asked, ”Are you two... managers from another zone?”

Uncle Tian slapped Tian Xiaowu on the shoulder. If not for the occasion, the slap would have landed on his head.

”You blockhead! The tone Miss Su used just now didn’t sound like she was talking to a manager of equal rank!”

As he said this, Uncle Tian secretly glanced at Su Ruoxi and Lin Feng.

Su Ruoxi and Lin Feng now found Uncle Tian himself to be rather endearing.

After receiving Su Ruoxi’s call,

the manager of Zone C, Huang Yongwang, rushed to the cafeteria without a moment’s delay.

The manager of Zone A had, in fact, not disclosed the news that Lin Feng and Su Ruoxi had arrived.

This led to Zone C being completely in the dark.

The Zone C manager had been busy compiling the progress reports from the various construction teams.

The moment he received Su Ruoxi’s call, he immediately stopped what he was doing.

In less than ten minutes, Tian Xiaowu and Uncle Tian saw the usually high-and-mighty Huang Yongwang.

He ran into the cafeteria, his head drenched in sweat.

After looking around, his eyes lit up when he saw Su Ruoxi, and he made a beeline for her.

”I wonder what wind blew you here, Miss Su. I didn’t get any notice, or I would’ve certainly rolled out the red carpet for you.”

Of all the managers, Su Ruoxi disliked this Huang Yongwang the most.

He was the one who loved empty formalities the most.

And he was always forming cliques.

However, this Huang Yongwang was a veteran of the project.

And Huang Yongwang’s own abilities weren’t bad.

So, although Su Ruoxi disliked him,

she had never removed him from the project.

”Here’s the situation. We ran into Tian Xiaowu on the way here. He has some ideas, and I was wondering if you’ve heard them before?”

Su Ruoxi’s face was unreadable, as if she were simply stating a fact.

Her voice was devoid of any emotion.

However, when Huang Yongwang turned his head and saw the Tian family, father and son,

a look of annoyance crossed his face.

It was clear that Huang Yongwang did not like Tian Xiaowu.

He even secretly shot Tian Xiaowu a glare from an angle Su Ruoxi couldn’t see.

In Huang Yongwang’s mind, Tian Xiaowu must have stopped Su Ruoxi on the road.

and spouted off all his strange and eccentric ideas.

After all, as far as Huang Yongwang was concerned, Tian Xiaowu had a history of ambushing people on the road.

”This young man just arrived at our site not long ago. He’s always coming up with oddball ideas. Miss Su, you don’t need to pay him any mind.”

”It’s almost time to eat. Why don’t we find a place for a quick meal first?”

Huang Yongwang could see the intimate relationship between Su Ruoxi and Lin Feng.

Naturally, his invitation did not include the Tian family.

Lin Feng took a sip of tea from the table, looked at Huang Yongwang, and said, ”It seems Tian Xiaowu has spoken to you before. In that case, do you know what his ideas actually are?”

Huang Yongwang looked blankly at the man beside Su Ruoxi.

He could tell the relationship between this handsome young man and Su Ruoxi was quite close.

Therefore, Huang Yongwang didn’t dare to offend Lin Feng.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, he pulled up a chair and sat down. ”Hah, his construction team says this kid is a bit stubborn. Their foreman has even told me that he’s insensible.”

”So I haven’t really listened to what the kid has to say.”

”Young people, you know... their grasp on reality is a bit shallow, and some of their ideas are rather immature.”

After Huang Yongwang said this, he saw wry smiles appear on both Su Ruoxi’s and Lin Feng’s faces.

Su Ruoxi said bluntly, ”It seems you really haven’t heard Tian Xiaowu’s ideas in full.”

Then, Su Ruoxi turned to Tian Xiaowu and said, ”Why don’t you explain your ideas to Manager Huang again, properly this time.”

Hearing this,

the smile on Huang Yongwang’s face instantly froze.

At that moment, he couldn’t figure out what Su Ruoxi was getting at.

He had originally thought Su Ruoxi was also just annoyed by Tian Xiaowu.

But now, Su Ruoxi’s expression and attitude left Huang Yongwang completely baffled.

Tian Xiaowu’s expression, however, was quite normal.

While Huang Yongwang was still bewildered, Tian Xiaowu had already taken out the crumpled piece of paper from before.

He began to repeat everything he had just told Su Ruoxi and Lin Feng to Manager Huang.

However, a moment ago, Tian Xiaowu had been speaking from the perspective of the entire amusement park.

He had gone over all the unreasonable flaws in the park’s overall design.

Now, facing Huang Yongwang, Tian Xiaowu only spoke about the unreasonable aspects of Zone C.

Tian Xiaowu even snuck a glance at Lin Feng.

and quietly added a few words about the illogical aspects of Huang Yongwang’s personnel and team assignments.

”For instance, our construction team clearly excels at pouring concrete and building large-scale structures... yet now we’ve been assigned to do nothing but mix cement.”

”And our team has been broken up...”

”I think this is actually less efficient.”

As Tian Xiaowu spoke, his voice grew louder.

When he got to the issues with Zone C’s overall planning,

because this was the second time he was explaining it, Tian Xiaowu’s points were even clearer.

”Those are my insights on the overall plan.”

When Tian Xiaowu finished, he felt refreshed and invigorated.

Huang Yongwang stared at the crumpled paper on the table, his brows deeply furrowed.

”The plan for this zone was designed by professionals. Everyone has their own specialty.”

”And as for the personnel, breaking you up so everyone has their specific role was precisely to improve efficiency.”

In truth, Huang Yongwang was still trying to figure out what Su Ruoxi was really thinking.

So he hadn’t really paid serious attention to Tian Xiaowu’s suggestions.

He just gave an ambiguous assessment.

Su Ruoxi and Lin Feng could clearly sense that deep down, Huang Yongwang was still prejudiced against Tian Xiaowu.

As for the work arrangements, Su Ruoxi didn’t intend to base her judgment solely on what these two said.

However, compared to the work atmosphere in Zone A,

the construction in Zone C was indeed more lax.

This was something Su Ruoxi and Lin Feng had indeed noticed on their way over.

”So you think all of Tian Xiaowu’s suggestions are inappropriate?”

Su Ruoxi’s expression deliberately softened.

Huang Yongwang was the type of person who was good at reading people and acting accordingly.

After seeing Su Ruoxi’s expression relax considerably,

Huang Yongwang mulled it over for a moment, then nodded. ”This kind of thing is best left to the professionals. Besides, don’t you think they’ve already considered the problems Tian Xiaowu mentioned?”

Su Ruoxi nodded lightly. ”If I recall correctly, I had you managers oversee the overall design plans back then.”

”You could say it was hashed out between you and the designers.”

”You’re a veteran in this industry. Did you notice any of the issues Tian Xiaowu just brought up?”

”If you think the designers did this on purpose, then for what reason would they intentionally design something like this?”

Huang Yongwang had originally thought Su Ruoxi’s attitude toward Tian Xiaowu was no different from his own.

That’s why he had expressed his own views so readily.

But now, Huang Yongwang understood clearly.

Su Ruoxi’s attitude had likely been on Tian Xiaowu’s side from the very beginning.

”Miss Su, you may not be aware, but Tian Xiaowu didn’t even finish high school. Wouldn’t it be too rash to consider his opinions?”

Huang Yongwang made no attempt to hide it, expressing his contemptuous view so bluntly.

Lin Feng noticed Uncle Tian’s expression turn ugly.

Tian Xiaowu, on the other hand, seemed accustomed to hearing such words, and his expression didn’t change much.

Lin Feng smiled faintly. ”There’s no need to continue.”

”If there were performance reviews among the different zones, you would probably be at the bottom.”

Lin Feng spoke to Huang Yongwang with a smile on his face, as if he were paying him a compliment.

Huang Yongwang hadn’t expected the man beside Su Ruoxi to be so sharp-tongued and direct.

”Who are you?”

”This is company business, after all. If you’re an outsider, I suggest you don’t interfere.”

Huang Yongwang had been seething with anger this whole time.

’He couldn’t for the life of him figure out how Su Ruoxi had been persuaded by Tian Xiaowu.’

’How much could a kid who didn’t even graduate from high school possibly be worth?’

’He probably doesn’t have a single scholarly thought in his head.’

’How on earth did he even get connected to Su Ruoxi?’

Having already been stung by Su Ruoxi’s words, Huang Yongwang was already feeling resentful.

Now, he was being lectured by this handsome young man following Su Ruoxi around.

And in such a gentle tone, as if he were a pile of trash...

The anger inside Huang Yongwang could no longer be contained.

At first, when Huang Yongwang guessed that the relationship between this man and Su Ruoxi was unusual,

he’d figured Lin Feng must be Su Ruoxi’s lover on the side.

’Maybe some kind of pretty boy.’

’A man who relies on a woman to get ahead.’

’And now he thinks he can have a say in things?’

Thus, the contempt in Huang Yongwang’s eyes was completely undisguised.
