The Whale in the Mountains
Chapter 284 Standing Upright for Justice
"Boss Chen, what do you mean by helping? Just tell me what you need, and I'll do it right away!"
On the other end of the phone, Qi Tianhu said respectfully.
Chen Xiao cut to the chase: "Recently, help me find some antiques and cultural relics, etc. The value doesn't matter, the main thing is that they have to be old enough."
The older something is, the greater the chance of it nurturing spiritual energy.
Qi Tianhu immediately said, "Okay, I understand, Boss Chen."
He didn't ask Chen Xiao what he was looking for these things for; anyway, he just had to do his best to do what his boss told him.
Chen Xiao instructed again: "By the way, notify the other bosses in the other cities as well. I won't call them one by one."
Now that the identity of the Jiangbei kingpin had been confirmed, he had to make good use of it.
The next day, after Chen Xiao had breakfast, he went to work, which was a very rare occurrence.
On the way to work, he received a call from Song Zijian.
"Hey, Chen Xiao, be careful recently. If it's convenient, you'd better go out of town to avoid the limelight."
As soon as the phone connected, Song Zijian said anxiously.
Chen Xiao couldn't help asking, "What's wrong? What happened?"
Song Zijian said, "I don't know who destroyed the flower field underground in Bahu Guan Village... I'm telling you this, but you must not spread it. It is said that this flower field was cultivated by a big shot. In fact, they had already informed the higher-ups, but they didn't expect that such a secret place would be discovered."
"Because of what happened last night, the higher-ups are very angry. In addition, the flower field was destroyed, which added fuel to the fire. Now the higher-ups are in a state of chaos, and there are many things involved, intricate and complex. Even what I know is just the tip of the iceberg. I'm worried that if you get involved, someone will be detrimental to you!"
Hearing Song Zijian's words, Chen Xiao immediately felt that this person was very righteous.
Because the flower field was destroyed, logically speaking, he was highly suspected, but Song Zijian didn't mention it at all, and even reminded him to run away and avoid the limelight.
Although the two had only met yesterday, Chen Xiao remembered this kindness.
At this moment, Chen Xiao suddenly thought of something, and he asked, "Team Leader Song, have you already been punished?"
Song Zijian was silent for a moment, then said casually, "It's okay, I just got a demerit and was suspended from my job to reflect. It's just a piece of cake. I'll just take the opportunity to take a vacation and spend time with my wife and children."
Song Zijian said it lightly, but Chen Xiao could also feel the helplessness and bitterness in his tone. Moreover, he was giving him a tip under great pressure, which Chen Xiao felt was even more commendable.
"Okay, I understand, Team Leader Song. If you have any troubles that you can't solve, you can come to me. Maybe I can help you."
Chen Xiao said seriously.
"Okay, I know. That's it, I'll hang up first."
Song Zijian hung up the phone and smiled.
But he didn't take Chen Xiao's words to heart. Although Chen Xiao was very capable, he was just an ordinary doctor after all. If even he couldn't solve the problem, what could Chen Xiao do?
Arriving at the hospital, Chen Xiao was walking towards the office building when someone suddenly patted him on the shoulder from behind.
He turned around, but there was no one there.
On the other side, Wu Feier's gentle voice came: "I'm over here, silly!"
Seeing Wu Feier, Chen Xiao smiled naively and said, "What a coincidence, Feier~"
In fact, Chen Xiao had noticed Wu Feier a long time ago. He was just pretending to be stupid on purpose, just to tease Wu Feier.
Moreover, he was also a little embarrassed, because after that night last time, he had been busy with personal matters and hadn't seen Wu Feier, acting like a scumbag who abandoned her after messing with her.
So he felt a little difficult to face Wu Feier.
However, Wu Feier was much more relaxed than him. It seemed like that night had never happened.
She asked with a sweet smile, "Chen Xiao, where have you been? You haven't come to work for so many days!"
Chen Xiao scratched his head and smiled, "I was dealing with some personal matters."
"Are you done dealing with them?"
"Yes!"
"That's good."
The two walked into the office building side by side, and Wu Feier's job position had already been transferred. She was no longer Chen Xiao's assistant, but had gone to the Department of Neurology as a doctor.
Although it was only an internship period now, with her level, becoming a regular employee was only a matter of time.
"By the way, how has your mother's condition been recently? I just happen to have some time recently, so I can go to your house tonight."
With a clear conscience, Chen Xiao really didn't think too much when he said this. He just simply wanted to treat Wu Feier's mother.
However, when Wu Feier heard this, her little face flushed, and she said with her head lowered, "Okay, then I'll wait for you."
Her shyness made Chen Xiao feel a little embarrassed.
Fortunately, at this time, Wu Feier arrived at her department. After saying goodbye to Chen Xiao, she quickly left with her head lowered.
Looking at Wu Feier's delicate figure, Chen Xiao's heart was also very conflicted.
He didn't know if what he was doing was right or wrong, and whether it was fair to Wu Feier.
But one thing he knew was that he would be reluctant to give up Wu Feier.
This is a man.
Chen Xiao returned to his long-lost office. It seemed that no one had ever entered this office during the time he was away, not even the cleaning lady.
Because a thick layer of dust had fallen on the desk, and no one had cleaned it for a long time.
Seeing that there was no one around, Chen Xiao used a spell to clean it up. In just ten seconds, the inside and outside were spotless and as clean as new.
However, before his butt could get warm on the chair, Dean Hao's call came, asking him to go over there quickly.
Chen Xiao thought that something urgent had happened, but when he arrived, he saw that... it was indeed an urgent matter, but it was relative to Dean Hao.
This old gentleman didn't know where he had recently dug up a bunch of obscure and difficult-to-understand ancient books, marked a bunch of questions, and was waiting for Chen Xiao to answer them for him.
Chen Xiao spent more than an hour explaining all the questions to Dean Hao.
After listening to Chen Xiao's explanation, Dean Hao felt enlightened and was very grateful to Chen Xiao.
Out of gratitude, he waved his hand and said to Chen Xiao, "Alright, there's nothing for you here. Go do what you need to do."
Chen Xiao's face was full of black lines. Well, it seemed that he had become Dean Hao's chamber pot. When he needed it, he would take it out and use it. When he didn't need it, he wouldn't care about it.
However, before Chen Xiao could walk out of the Dean's office, Dean Hao suddenly slapped his forehead and exclaimed, "Hey, Chen Xiao, wait a minute. I was so focused on the ancient books just now that I almost forgot to tell you the important thing!"
Chen Xiao was very speechless, thinking, do you still know that you are not doing your job properly?
Immediately afterwards, he heard Dean Hao congratulate him with a smile, "Congratulations, Chen Xiao, you've been promoted!"
