Chapter 795: Chapter 795: Chaotic Nanping City
Seeing that it was her son who had returned, mother Li Shujuan hugged Ji Yang excitedly.
“Son, you didn’t even say a word before coming back.”
“Wasn’t I trying to give you guys a surprise?”
Father Ji Dacai’s voice came through, “Alright, it’s because our son is busy with his work. He’s a leader now; he can’t just leave whenever he wants.”
Now that my little sister had gone to college, there were just the two old folks at home, so Ji Yang’s return naturally filled them with joy.
“Son, are you just passing through this time?”
“I’ve been transferred back to work in Nanping City.”
“Transferred back? That’s wonderful! We’ve been so worried about you being out there. Haven’t you eaten yet? I’ll go cook.”
Seeing how excited his mother was, Ji Yang quickly said, “No need to cook, I ate on the way here.”
Li Shujuan then took Ji Yang to sit on the sofa and after looking at him for a while, she said, “You’ve lost weight.”
Ji Yang laughed, “Mom, what are you talking about? I’ve actually gained some weight.” Ever since Ji Yang began cultivating, his physical qualities had seen a substantial improvement; he was now in perfect shape.
Ji Dacai said, “Now that you’re back, which department are you working in? You need to work hard. Nanping City is in such chaos now. If you get the chance, you should mention it to your leaders, ask for more crackdowns. Just look at the streets—so many thieves and petty criminals, and there are those who bully others with their power…”
Ji Dacai clearly had a lot of grievances and began to air them.
“Enough. It’s good enough that our son got transferred back. He doesn’t have the clout to go talking to the leaders about these issues,” said his mother, displeased.
“Right, you still haven’t said which department you’ll be working in?” The mother was curious now.
“I’m working with the Municipal Party Committee,” Ji Yang said.
“The Municipal Party Committee, that’s great! Are you working as a secretary for a leader? If so, you might find an opportunity to remind the leadership that it’s time for a crackdown.”
Even his parents thought that Nanping had issues; it gave a clear picture of just how serious the problems were.
“I’m not working as a secretary.”
“Then what are you doing? An ordinary office worker?”
“Can’t you guys imagine me coming back as a leader?” Ji Yang asked with a smile.
The truth was, Ji Yang had never really discussed his work situation with his parents. In their minds, Ji Yang was still the same as before—he had been a deputy county leader, and now at most, he would be a county-level leader. Even transferred to the city, he could only be a cadre in some department; they could never associate him with the Nanping Municipal Party Secretary.
Speaking seriously, Ji Yang was indeed too young. Given the seniority system, it was improbable for him to be promoted to such a position.
However, what nobody knew was that Ji Yang was a powerful cultivator, and both his abilities and the force backing him had become formidable.
Curious, his mother asked, “What exact position is it?”
They had some confidence in their son’s ability to lead, but they only felt it couldn’t be too high a position.
“Nanping Municipal Party Secretary.”
The mother laughed, patting Ji Yang light-heartedly, “Stop kidding around. There’s no way at your age.”
His parents also said, “Having goals is good; just don’t talk nonsense outside. You’ll make us a laughing stock.”
Ji Yang laughed as well. It seemed they really didn’t believe that he had become the Municipal Party Secretary.
Ji Yang just let it go, whether they believed it or not wasn’t too important. He began asking about the situation in Nanping City. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novęlfire.net
