Chen Bin wiped his mouth with a tissue before he slowly began to speak.
"If I were you, I definitely wouldn't go to Secretary Feng to ask for money. Instead, I'd keep strengthening the relationship with him."
Seeing Wu Liang's puzzled expression, he continued.
"You only see that Secretary Feng didn't handle things, but from his perspective, taking the money and failing to deliver is deeply humiliating."
Wu Liang grasped the underlying meaning in Chen Bin's words and slowly nodded.
"Go on, tell me more."
"Think about it. Secretary Feng must feel guilty about this situation. If you maintain a good relationship with him, when he firmly establishes his position in the future, do you think you'll miss out on the benefits?"
Wu Liang carefully weighed this thought and felt it made a lot of sense.
Failing to become Secretary of the Tianhai Municipal Committee didn't mean there weren't other roles available elsewhere.
There was no need to obsess over this point.
