Chapter 33: Chapter 33 Let’s Go in Together
Fang Xiaoyue was waiting for him at the entrance, and as soon as Chen Feng arrived, he saw her. To be honest, he still felt somewhat moved.
Although the permit approval was blocked, Chen Feng certainly couldn’t blame her.
She was just an ordinary clerk in her department, so her inability to help was understandable.
Upon seeing Chen Feng, Fang Xiaoyue quickly went up to him, pulled him to the side of the road, and quietly explained the situation to him.
The main reason was that a director had stepped in and rejected his application.
This director wasn’t from the approval office and wasn’t responsible for the permit approval, but he was from the environmental control department, and given his rank, respect had to be paid, so things were stalled there.
"Chen Feng, I can help you arrange a meeting with Director Zhang. You can meet with him face-to-face. If there’s some misunderstanding, you can clarify it," Fang Xiaoyue suggested with an implication.
Chen Feng thought it over, but ultimately shook his head. He was living on borrowed time now, not wanting to grovel before others as death approached, nor did he want to waste his precious time on this matter.
Additionally, Chen Feng suspected that this person might be linked to the other two car washes, so a meeting probably wouldn’t be of much use.
He intended to find another solution, not an extreme one, but rather through the proper channels.
Now in a society governed by law, he would proceed according to legal procedures. Since he disagreed with the administrative punishment, he would apply for administrative review, or even sue in court.
These were options permitted and encouraged by national law.
He had money now, so he could simply pay a lawyer to handle it for him.
Seeing Chen Feng refuse, Fang Xiaoyue couldn’t help but frown slightly and said, "Then what do you plan to do next? You said last time that your family invested hundreds of thousands to open this shop, you can’t just let it close, can you?"
Chen Feng smiled faintly and was about to speak when a black sedan pulled up beside them, the window rolled down, and the face of a dignified woman appeared.
"Good to see you, Mr. Feng."
Before Chen Feng could say anything, Fang Xiaoyue, standing by his side, quickly greeted the woman with serious restraint.
The woman in the car just nodded slightly to Fang Xiaoyue, then turned to Chen Feng with a smile and asked, "Chen Feng, what brings you here?"
"Sister, I’m here for some business," Chen Feng replied, also quite surprised because this woman was Mr. Zheng’s daughter, Feng Xiaoying. He never dreamed that Mr. Zheng’s daughter would work here.
"Oh, then come on in with me."
"Thank you, then. I’ll trouble you, sister."
"It’s no trouble at all. This is where I work. I’ll go in first and wait for you."
Feng Xiaoying was quite straightforward. After speaking, she directed the driver to head inside.
It was at this moment that Fang Xiaoyue looked at Chen Feng with a shocked expression: "Old classmate, that’s not very fair of you. If you know our leader, why bother asking me, a small clerk, for help? No wonder you refused to reconcile with Director Zhang earlier. You were waiting for this, weren’t you?"
Chen Feng just smiled, offered no explanation; there was no need.
Regarding the fact that Feng Xiaoying was Mr. Zheng’s daughter, Fang Xiaoyue was clearly unaware until now, or she wouldn’t have reacted this way. Chen Feng hesitated for a moment, then decided not to explain to her either.
The reason was simple: he did not want to disturb the peace of Mr. Zheng’s family. Presumably, Mr. Zheng had not mentioned this relationship before; otherwise, given her decades in education and thousands of students she had taught, her former students would surely be visiting her nonstop every day.
After the two of them entered, Feng Xiaoying was already standing at the entrance of the building waiting for him.
Her special treatment of Chen Feng scared Fang Xiaoyue quite a bit, confirming there was a good reason Chen Feng addressed her as ’sister.’
Fang Xiaoyue’s gaze toward Chen Feng suddenly changed.
"Come, let’s go into my office and have a chat,"
Feng Xiaoying warmly beckoned Chen Feng, intending to take him to her office for a visit.
However, Chen Feng refused, shaking his head and saying, "Sis, I’m dealing with a tricky issue today. Let’s get things sorted out first, otherwise I won’t be at ease."
"Oh, what’s the matter?" Feng Xiaoying asked with some confusion and then glanced toward Fang Xiaoyue, who was following Chen Feng.
"It’s like this." Fang Xiaoyue quickly and clearly explained the situation. At the end, she specifically added, "Chen Feng’s car beauty shop has already installed the sewage pipes, and the project has passed our local inspection. According to the procedures, the permit should be issued to Chen Feng."
Feng Xiaoying nodded, "Alright. I’ve got it." After a pause, she asked, "You’re Little Fang from the publicity department, right?"
"Yes." Fang Xiaoyue nodded repeatedly.
"Hmm, I’ll remember you, you’ve done well. Go ahead with your work."
"Okay, leader, I’ll get back to work," Fang Xiaoyue happily responded, nodding to Chen Feng before leaving.
"What’s your relationship with this Little Fang?" Feng Xiaoying asked Chen Feng with a smile.
Chen Feng smiled and said, "She’s a high school classmate of mine."
"Your high school classmate? Was she also taught by my mom?" Feng Xiaoying asked with some confusion.
Chen Feng nodded.
Feng Xiaoying suddenly seemed to understand, nodding without saying another word.
Both were students of her own mother’s, but Chen Feng still remembered to bring gifts when paying a visit, whereas Fang Xiaoyue obviously hadn’t paid much of a visit before. Otherwise, they would have known each other for many years.
"Come, sit in my office for a while first. I have some good tea there, I’ll brew some for you to taste."
Feng Xiaoying was still as enthusiastic as ever towards Chen Feng.
This time Chen Feng didn’t refuse again and followed her to the office, where he indeed tasted the tea she personally brewed, and it was truly delicious.
Chen Feng’s low-key demeanor even after learning of her public office position pleased her. She thought it was no wonder her mother spoke so highly of this young man, he really had some tricks up his sleeve.
After a casual chat and a cup of tea, Chen Feng took the opportunity during her questioning to report the situation with the car beauty shop and the other two car washes that were polluting the environment, thus making an official report.
Feng Xiaoying immediately made a phone call to the supervision team to check things out in Qingpu Town and then called Director Zhang and Director Li from the approval office.
Chen Feng had intended to step aside, but Feng Xiaoying insisted on keeping him there.
The two directors arrived quickly, and the following events went as Chen Feng had anticipated; Feng Xiaoying criticized both of them fiercely, especially Director Zhang, who broke out in cold sweat.
After the two left, Feng Xiaoying apologized to Chen Feng, saying, "Sorry for that spectacle. It’s my fault for not managing properly. You came for an approval that should rightfully be yours, and you should have received your permit without issue. Instead, this happened."
"Sis, you’re being too polite. It’s not your fault. Maybe Director Zhang had his own considerations," Chen Feng said.
Chen Feng was not a forgiving person, and this was his subtle dig at Director Zhang.
Feng Xiaoying’s expression darkened slightly, and she nodded.
Afterward, Chen Feng expressed his gratitude, then rose to take his leave.
Since it was still working hours, Feng Xiaoying didn’t hold him back but reminded him to visit Mr. Zheng sometime, as her mother had mentioned him these past few days.
What else could Chen Feng say but agree to visit Mr. Zheng in the next few days?
When Chen Feng left, Director Li from the approval office was waiting for him, leading him to personally process his permit.
What initially seemed like a troublesome issue was easily resolved.
Lucky him!
