CHAPTER 1896: CHAPTER 1243: ADAPTATION

"I still don’t recommend it."

Tong Dan insisted.

Fang Qing calmly said, "You know Jiang Chen’s personality. He’s stubborn; once he decides to do something, no one can change his mind."

Tong Dan forced a smile, "He’s already done enough by developing properties for your community. Why go through all this trouble? Does he really want the whole city to be grateful for his generosity?"

"You know, when people have money, status, and position, they want to become someone great."

Fang Qing’s lips curled slightly.

Tong Dan’s smile widened, a mix of laughter and helplessness.

"Well, the realm of big bosses like him is beyond our understanding as ordinary folks, but I still suggest you think more carefully. If the benefits genuinely fall to the people of Sha City, then fine. Boss Jiang is wealthy now and can afford it; buying some fame isn’t a big deal. But something like the statue of Guan Gong..."

"No one dares."

Fang Qing whispered.

Tong Dan looked at her.

"He’s the kind of person willing to be a philanthropist but not a fool. What he’s willing to give, you can accept; but what he’s not willing to give, you can’t take."

Tong Dan was speechless, then came to understand.

Habitual thinking.

She didn’t know the specific scope of his business ventures but understood he’s certainly no ordinary entrepreneur.

Absolutely something Sha City could not contain or provoke.

"Sorry, I was just being overly sentimental."

Tong Dan raised her palm by her cheek, quickly changing her stance, "Fighting isn’t about escaping from a poor hometown; it’s about helping it overcome poverty. Boss Jiang’s righteousness; I support it."

"And I strongly suggest erecting a statue for Boss Jiang at the Guan Gong statue site."

Fang Qing ignored her teasing.

"So you’re in?"

Tong Dan lowered her hand, "Qing Gege, are you planning to involve me in such a big project? I’m just a little flight attendant; you’re thinking too highly of me."

"I’ve already discussed the basic details with the relevant parties. You just need to execute; the job isn’t complicated."

"Why don’t you handle it yourself?"

Tong Dan asked instinctively, then quickly realized she said something silly.

To her, the project seemed monumental, but to Qing Gege, not so much.

Qing Gege doesn’t have time to stay in Sha City dealing with these trivial matters.

She needs to return to East Sea to watch over Jiang Chen.

That’s the most important job.

"Alright, no problem, I’ll take on this task. You can trust me with it."

Tong Dan suddenly became resolute, with a firm and unquestionable attitude.

"You sure? Once you accept, you can’t back out halfway."

"Do you think I’m a three-year-old child? Such an important project, dealing with officials, how could I mess it up? My parents will retire in Sha City."

She couldn’t help but feel a bit nervous, "Though I don’t have much experience..."

"I’ll send a professional team to support you."

Who says women only have two chances to change their destiny?

Knowing a good friend is just the same, isn’t it?

Suddenly, Tong Dan unexpectedly hugged Fang Qing and gave her a peck on the cheek.

Fang Qing was stunned, noticing the strange looks from people around, her face flushed as she hastily wiped her cheek.

"What are you doing?!"

Tong Dan chuckled, "So worked up? Qing Gege, have you never been kissed before? Playing house with Jiang Chen as kids doesn’t count."

Fang Qing was speechless.

Remarkably, Tong Dan actually began to make a move.

Fang Qing quickly got up and moved aside.

"Qing Gege, you can’t react so strongly; you’ll have to experience it sooner or later, let me help you adapt a bit."

"I don’t need your help!"

Fang Qing whispered softly.

Tong Dan looked up, curiosity sparkling in her eyes.

"Someone helped you adapt?"
