Her Majesty

Chapter 43 Blessing or Curse

I followed Mayor Chang to his study, where the dim light made his face look unruffled.

Mayor Chang picked up a book "Strategize" at will, and then turned his head to ask me, “Justin, sorry

about Housin."

My heart ached at the mention of the matter, and I lowered my head so that he would not see the anger

on my face, and whispered, "Godfather, it's all right. I don't want to talk about that anymore."

Mayor Chang looked at me with bright eyes and said, "I know you're still thinking about revenge, but it's

not the right time. Wait, wait."

I whispered, "I know, godfather."

"Well, I'm glad you think so." A smile came over Mayor Chang's face and he asked me, "Who is in

charge, you or Ben Lau?"

I stood still for a moment and thought about what he meant when he asked me. Then I said with great

care, "We are good friends. We discuss everything. Well, he'll listen to me when the chips are down."

Mayor Chang smiled faintly and said softly, “Friends? Justin, you are still too young. There is no one

who deserves your trust, neither Ben Lau nor I. Do you know why I recognized you as my god son?”

It was a very informative sentence, and I didn't get over it, but I also knew that Mayor Chang's question

was sure to go on, so I honestly said, "In fact, I know that your acceptance of me as your adopted son

is more than just appreciation for me. The underlying reason is still unknown to me."

Mayor Chang laughed and said, "You are a straight-talker, just like me when I was young. Fortunately, I

am not a brown-noser, otherwise you would have offended me with that remark."

I smiled shyly and said, "I have to get more guidance from the godfather later."

Mayor Chang thought carefully and said slowly, "Actually, the reason why I was transferred to S city is

because here is the private bank of Jacob Jiang. He used to be a mayor here for three years, and

many cadres were promoted by him. The leaders wanted to take him down, but they had no proof. I'm

here to gather evidence."

My heart gave a start and I felt as if I was in the middle of a higher struggle.

But Last night I was labeled Mayor Chang, and now it's too late to back out.

I vaguely knew why Mayor Chang wanted to take me as his god son, he was going to tie me tightly to

his chariot and use me as a pawn. The joy of support from him just now slowly faded and was replaced

by a faint bitterness.

Mayor Chang looked down at me and said nothing. He asked me kindly, “What's the matter? Do you

think I'm using you?”

I hastened to say, “No, no, I and Housin have been enemies. Without you, I will fight with him to the

end, but with you, I will be more confident.”

Mayor Chang gave me a deep look and said with a wry smile, "You think highly of me. I am basically

being put on the empty seat and my orders are being ignored by others. I'm afraid I can't help you."

I was surprised, but still said, “It is ok, as long as we behave well, I believe there will be good people in

this world."

Mayor Chang finally gave a satisfied smile and said, "I love what you say. For so many years, there has

been a miasma here, and the good people have been too frightened to speak. I have come here to

change this atmosphere. The reason why Jacob Jiang moved here is because he is afraid. He's here to

continue to scare people away from talking. Justin, I'm afraid we will have a difficult road ahead."

I smiled and said, “It’s ok, I thought being restrained could make life better, my girlfriend was forced to

die but I can only be helpless. Now I don't want to endure, I can die as long as I bring down the Jiang

family."

Mayor Chang nodded his head with satisfaction and said, "Well, I appreciate your strength. In fact, you

don't have to worry too much. I can still give you some help when necessary. Only there are some

things that are better left to you."

I nodded and said, “Well, I will listen to your arrangement."

Mayor Chang laughed lightly and said, "I have nothing to do for you recently. You should concentrate

on doing the business district well. If I can do it well, I will arrange other things for you."

Hearing this, I had a wry smile in my heart, I thought I was now Mayor Chang's trusted aide but I did

not expect I was still in the investigation stage.

Mayor Chang patted my shoulder and said in earnest, “Be patient. I take a fancy to you because you

are honest and restrained. Your weakness is not bad enough. If you want to beat those bad guys you

must are worse than they are, that Ben can make up for it, but it is you I will always trust."

"So you've got to try, too. Only if you're bad enough will those bad people treat you as one of their own.

Only if they treat you as one of their own can you get their secrets, you know what I mean?"

I nodded my head heavily and said, "Don't worry, godfather, I will not disappoint you.'

"Good, keep these words a secret. Don’t leak a word, including Ben, understand?" Mayor Chang

suddenly severely said to me. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

"Even if I die," I promised, beating my chest, "I won't leak a word of today's conversation."

Mayor Chang went out of his study with me in a pleasant way, and resumed his kindly old manner.

And my back was drenched in cold sweat, because I knew that my life trajectory had completely

changed since today.

Mrs. Chang had made a pot of good tea, said to me with a smile, “What did you talked about? My tea is

going to cool."

Mayor Chang said with a smile, “About introduction a girl to Justin. I see the daughter of Bai family not

good."

Mrs. Chang burst into laughter, “Good, that girl was still not married. I worry for her mother, but she is

picky, I am not sure whether she would like Justin."

Mayor Chang said with great profound meaning, “She may like him in the future. I believe that Justin

will be good one day."

My heart smiled bitterly, this mayor acted will, others would think I was his own son.

Who knew this joke made me more out of control in the rest of my life.
