On the other end of the phone, the man listened carefully to Zhou Chen explaining the situation in its entirety. After a pause, the man spoke in a calm voice: "Chen, no offense, but if this is your way of doing things, stick to your own field of science, education, culture, and health. Nie Zhenbang is not someone you can mess with."
This comment made Zhou Chen somewhat embarrassed, but he didn't dare to refute due to the man's identity. He responded with an awkward smile: "Hu, you know well, Nie and I are simply not on the same page. Coming to Bazhou, if I bent my head down, it would hurt my pride. So, I planned to give him a bit of trouble, you know?"
In front of this man, Zhou Chen was unusually humble, just like he was in front of his master. It showed that this man was not an ordinary person in terms of his background and abilities.
