Chapter 2765: Twins


Editor: Henyee Translations


Mayor Xu went on stage according to the procedure. Secretary Tang followed beside him and introduced in a low voice, “Mayor Xu, a famous director, came to the event location today. He’s Director Cheng, and he once won many awards both domestically and overseas. He brought his son, Chengyu, over. They want to publicize the movie that Director Cheng recently filmed with foreign directors.”


Mayor Xu said nothing.


Secretary Tang said in a low voice, “He can be considered our country’s honor. Why don’t we invite Director Cheng over to meet us?”


“We’ll talk about it after I finish the process.”


“Okay, okay.” As long as there was a chance, it didn’t matter if it happened on stage or off.


After Mayor Xu made a simple and powerful speech about support for the cultural industry, he walked down from the stage.


Director Cheng and Chengyu had already been called to Secretary Tang’s side.


Qiao Weiyang and Xu w.a.n.gzhi also walked over.


Director Cheng was not surprised. There were many people who wanted to come into contact with Mayor Xu on this occasion today, but not everyone had such an opportunity.


“Mayor Xu, this is Director Cheng and his son, Chengyu,” Secretary Tang immediately introduced.


“h.e.l.lo, Director Cheng. Thank you for your efforts in the film industry,” Mayor Xu said politely.


“It’s my duty.” Director Cheng shook his hand excitedly.


Mayor Xu smiled and said, “Now, the country is strongly supporting the cultural industry. The cultural industry is not only the spiritual food of the people but it can also subtly influence their thoughts. Your mission is difficult and important.”


Director Cheng enjoyed his encouraging words.


Mayor Xu took the initiative to ask, “Other than partic.i.p.ating in the event, is there anything else?”


Director Cheng suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and was considering his words when he saw Qiao Weiyang and Xu w.a.n.gzhi getting closer.


When Secretary Tang saw Qiao Weiyang and Xu w.a.n.gzhi, his face darkened.


He was about to get someone to chase Xu w.a.n.gzhi and Qiao Weiyang away when Mayor Xu looked at them with relief.


Secretary Tang couldn’t take action immediately, but he didn’t look too good.


Director Cheng didn’t pay much attention to it. Xu w.a.n.gzhi quickly walked up to Mayor Xu and said in a low voice, “Dad.”


“Uncle Xu.” Qiao Weiyang’s address was obviously intimate.


Not only did Director Cheng and Chengyu’s expressions change, but Secretary Tang’s hands also trembled.


Dad? Uncle Xu?


Secretary Tang trembled, suspecting that he had misheard.


“T-This is…” Secretary Tang found himself tongue-tied.


Only then did he realize that Xu w.a.n.gzhi did look a little similar to Mayor Xu. However, if he didn’t make the connection, how would he know that they were father and son?


“By the way, let me introduce you to everyone. This is my son, Xu w.a.n.gzhi. This is his friend and junior, Qiao Weiyang,” Mayor Xu introduced frankly. “Secretary Tang, you haven’t been transferred here for long and haven’t had the time to meet w.a.n.gzhi. I’ll introduce you to him today.”


Secretary Tang didn’t know how he reached out to shake Xu w.a.n.gzhi’s hand. He only knew that when he retracted his hand, his palm was covered in sweat.


Director Cheng’s face turned pale. Facing Xu w.a.n.gzhi’s outstretched hand, he only reached out after a long time with a dull gaze.


Chengyu could not face Xu w.a.n.gzhi directly.


“By the way, Director Cheng, what were you going to say just now?” Mayor Xu asked with a smile after the introduction.


Director Cheng bowed slightly. “Last time, my son accidentally injured Mr. Xu, but I never found a chance to apologize to him. This time, I finally got Secretary Tang to help me meet you and Mr. Xu. Mayor Xu, Mr. Xu, please accept my son’s and my sincere apologies.”


Chengyu immediately bent down. “I’m really sorry. Mr. Xu, please forgive me.”


Xu w.a.n.gzhi shrugged. “Forget it. Let’s leave it in the past.”


Mayor Xu was obviously satisfied with his son’s open-mindedness.


He nodded. “Director Cheng, I heard that you’ve already sent your son overseas to study. It’s indeed a good thing for young people to have the chance to learn more. Since you’re so sincere, we naturally won’t think too much about it. Let’s leave this matter at that.”


Director Cheng and Chengyu felt terrible. Clearly, not only did Chengyu not manage to make a comeback today, but they also ruined their last hope.


Director Cheng secretly glared at Chengyu.


Chengyu also regretted it very much. If he had known that Xu w.a.n.gzhi was Mayor Xu’s son, he definitely wouldn’t have provoked him.


It was all because Xu w.a.n.gzhi had never revealed anything.


After Director Cheng and Chengyu left, Secretary Tang also looked embarra.s.sed. “I’m sorry, Little Master. You came to look for Mayor Xu just now, but I thought you were an outsider, so my att.i.tude toward you was a little bad. Please forgive me.”


“You were thinking about my father and didn’t want to let outsiders get close to him. You were just doing your job. How can I blame you?” Xu w.a.n.gzhi said calmly.


Secretary Tang couldn’t tell if his words were really out of kindness or if there was a hidden meaning, so he could only rub his hands awkwardly.


“Alright, Secretary Tang. Continue arranging the activities. I’ll talk to Weiyang and w.a.n.gzhi for a while more.”


Secretary Tang immediately went to make arrangements.


Previously, he had deliberately moved Stalker to the promotional spot in the corner. He immediately got someone to adjust it to the most eye-catching position.


However, when he thought about Mayor Xu’s straightforward personality, he did not dare to be so blatant. He could only ask where the original location of Stalker was and change it back to the original location.


Stalker was already powerful and had a lot of attention. After making the arrangements, it naturally obtained excellent publicity.


Qiao Weiyang’s and Xu w.a.n.gzhi’s fans were very happy to see the corresponding information.


Only Chengyu’s fans were left to wait for an entire day. The big fans had originally sworn that he would definitely make a comeback today and asked everyone to wait.


However, there was only a lot of news about Qiao Weiyang and Xu w.a.n.gzhi. The information about the others also came out one after another, but there was nothing about Chengyu.


What they did not know was that Director Cheng did not dare to think about letting his son make a comeback at all. After injuring Mayor Xu’s son, Mayor Xu did not cause trouble for them. If Director Cheng and Chengyu dared break their promise, they would be done for.


The fans were greatly disappointed when they did not receive any news from Chengyu.


The next day, Chengyu quietly took a plane and embarked on a trip overseas. He would not come back for the next five years.


While Stalker was preparing for its release, Qiao Weiyang and Su Zhuoqian’s wedding was finally ready and on the agenda.


Their wedding could be said to be the focus of everyone’s attention. Everyone was looking forward to seeing the wedding of the century.


The story of the two of them had long been discussed by everyone. Now, it had come to fruition. Weddings were not completely necessary. They were just icing on the cake.
