In July in the capital, there was no other way to describe it except for the heat.

Of course, there was the occasional light rain.

When Xu Junran walked into the Propaganda Department, his mood was exceptionally good.

A man always feels happy after being satisfied in some aspects. Even after years in the political arena, Xu Junran was no different. Men are men, regardless of their status, some fundamental things remain the same.

Xu Junran didn't have to put in much effort to sort out his relationship with Lin Yuqing. No matter what, he was a man, and if he took someone's body, he had to take responsibility. Although Lin Yuqing never said anything, Xu Junran knew she still wanted him to take responsibility.

No woman would want the man who took her first time to act as if nothing happened. Even though Lin Yuqing knew the gap between her and Xu Junran was significant, and she had proposed to separate from him, deep down, she still yearned for someone to care for her.

Although the younger man, a few years her junior, sounded a bit immature when he said he would take care of her for life, she still shed tears.

"As long as you don't despise me or let me go, I will be your woman for this lifetime."

These were the words Lin Yuqing said as she helped Xu Junran tidy up his clothes and saw him off.

"Having someone waiting for you, that's a good feeling."

This was what Xu Junran thought as he stepped into the Propaganda Department.

Today, he was here to find Huang Zixuan.

Yes, the same Huang Zixuan who, in his previous life, stole his adoptive father's girlfriend, causing his adoptive father to live a life of depression and die with resentment.

Of course, in this life, Huang Zixuan stole Xu Junran's girlfriend. Although Xu Junran only had one feeling towards the woman who abandoned him for wealth and status, if hate could be considered a feeling.

For this life's Xu Junran, making Huang Zixuan suffer was his joy.

"Excuse me, which floor is Comrade Huang Zixuan's office on?"

Standing politely at the gatehouse, Xu Junran asked courteously.

He only knew from Cao Junming that Huang Zixuan worked at the Propaganda Department, but he didn't know which specific department. In Xu Junran's memory, Huang Zixuan was promoted to deputy section chief right after graduating from university, reportedly because he had already been a full-section chief in a grassroots department before university. Thus, he was considered to have entered university with a position. After graduation, with a bit of maneuvering, he directly became a deputy section chief. After all, he was a well-connected young master, and if he didn't have this ability, he wouldn't be worthy of being Cao Junming's rival.

"Who are you?" The security guard looked at Xu Junran, who was wearing a的确良shirt, glasses, and carrying a black shoulder bag, clearly not looking like a cadre.

"Ah, I'm a university classmate of Comrade Huang Zixuan." Xu Junran was well-prepared and took out his graduation certificate from his bag: "Please take a look, this is my student ID and graduation certificate."

It must be said that in the 1980s, a university graduation certificate was far more effective than offering a cigarette. In an era where knowledge was status, intellectuals were seen as a symbol of one's identity. When Xu Junran, an ordinary person, showed his student ID, the security guard immediately treated him with more respect, even better than the other two men who were clearly also there to visit someone, judging by their attire, they were likely cadres.

"Comrade Xiao Xu, right? Please wait a moment, I'll check for you." The gatehouse didn't have the leaders' phone numbers, but it did have a register of all cadres with offices, making it easier to notify them if someone came to visit.

Soon, Xu Junran got the address of Huang Zixuan's office. After thanking the guard, he went to Huang Zixuan's office on the fifth floor.

Huang Zixuan's office was on the west side of the fifth floor. Xu Junran walked straight to the door of the office.

The door was open, and a figure was bent over the desk, writing something. Seeing this figure, a cold smile appeared on Xu Junran's lips.

It's you, Huang Zixuan!

"Knock! Knock! Knock!"

Raising his hand, Xu Junran knocked three times on the door, a sign of politeness that must be observed wherever one goes.

Huang Zixuan looked up and said instinctively, "Please come in."

But as soon as the words left his mouth, his eyes narrowed, looking at Xu Junran standing at the door: "It's you?"

He was ten years older than Xu Junran, already twenty-nine years old, and a well-known figure among the young generation in the capital. With a square face, he had the air of a superior, quite different from Cao Junming's gentle demeanor. Huang Zixuan looked somewhat stern, making him hard to approach. In reality, he was that kind of person. His noble birth made him look down on others, and whether dealing with subordinates or superiors, he always maintained a calm and inscrutable demeanor.

"Ha ha, Director Huang, aren't you going to invite me in?" Xu Junran said without showing any emotion.

"Ah, yes, yes, please come in, Comrade Xu Junran." Huang Zixuan immediately stood up, pointing to the sofa in his office and smiling at Xu Junran. Whether the smile was genuine or not, Xu Junran could tell at a glance.

Xu Junran also knew that Huang Zixuan wouldn't be unaware of his current status. After all, Huang Ziqi was in Quanzhou City and would certainly have informed his brother about his movements.

While Xu Junran was observing Huang Zixuan, Huang Zixuan was also observing him.

As Xu Junran had guessed, as the elder brother, Huang Ziqi had indeed told his brother about Xu Junran. However, in his view, a young university student with no background or support would be stuck in the poor and remote Wude County for the rest of his life after a simple warning.

Originally, Huang Zixuan also believed his brother, as his brother was much more capable than him. To steal Xu Junran's girlfriend, he had to use his family background and some means, while his brother could manipulate Xu Junran with just a few phone calls.

"Ha ha, it's been a few days, and I didn't expect you to become a director."

Xu Junran looked at Huang Zixuan and smiled faintly.

Huang Zixuan was slightly taken aback, looking at Xu Junran with some curiosity. To be honest, he didn't pay much attention to this so-called top talent in the Chinese Department of Jinghua University. Without any background or support, he was nothing but a good student, someone who might make literature-loving women swoon but was merely a pure intellectual in the eyes of those in power.

Since he was just a pure intellectual, there was no need to pay attention to him.

So, Huang Zixuan had taken Xu Junran's woman without any qualms. In his view, this person had no ability to seek revenge.

And Xu Junran's subsequent behavior confirmed Huang Zixuan's belief that he didn't need to worry about this guy. A man who could only return to his hometown to lick his wounds after losing his woman was not worthy of being his enemy.

But why did he suddenly appear here today?
