Seeing Nie Zhenbang still pretending to be oblivious, Elder Nie was exasperated. He jested, "You stinky boy, you think I don't know? Even though you stay behind the scenes, that Wal-Mart supermarket you're running, and the recent high-profile international trade conference. Do you really think you can fool the people of Jingcheng? Do you think that just a few of you young ones could achieve this sort of success? If it weren't for Nanxun Chief giving you a push behind the scenes, it wouldn't take Xuri standing up - the grassroots alone could have shut your supermarket down."
At this point, Elder Nie saw Nie Zhenbang's surprised expression and felt a bit of satisfaction. His own grandson was too mysterious – too mature, steady, and elegant in handling matters. All of these were positive traits. But, he was too mature. Looking at him, Elder Nie felt like he wasn't looking at a young man, but rather a middle-aged man.
