"Hey, Dr. Lin."
Hu Fu walked into the corridor and then connected to Lin Xiao Tian's phone.
Now that his boss was preparing to deal with Lin Xiao Tian, if it were known that he was talking to Lin Xiao Tian, given Dong Lin's personality, it would easily lead to misunderstandings.
Moreover, no one could guarantee that Lin Xiao Tian wasn't planning something like this. After all, he was not comparable to Dong Lin; Lin Xiao Tian's intelligence absolutely crushed Dong Lin.
To be safe, Hu Fu turned on the call recording.
"Is it convenient to talk?" Lin Xiao Tian asked.
"Of course, it's convenient, Dr. Lin. Just say what you need to say," Hu Fu naturally knew what this meant, which was to confirm whether Dong Lin was nearby.
Lin Xiao Tian was direct:
"Dr. Hu, have you considered changing jobs?"
Hmm?
Lin Xiao Tian's sudden question left Hu Fu somewhat stunned.
Was Lin Xiao Tian trying to introduce him to a job?
Or was Lin Xiao Tian playing a trick, aiming to alienate him from the Dong family?
Hu Fu was more inclined to believe the latter, so he replied:
"I don't understand what you mean, Dr. Lin? However, I am very satisfied with my work at the National Medical Hall, and I have no such plans at the moment."
"Very satisfied? As far as I know, you've always wanted to transfer to an administrative position at the headquarters of the National Medical Hall, but to this day, you're still an associate chief physician. With your abilities, Dr. Hu, I think this is a waste of talent."
"The headquarters naturally has its considerations for personnel appointments. I fully obey the headquarters' decisions, and this is not something Dr. Lin needs to worry about."
Lin Xiao Tian had long expected that Hu Fu, being so cautious, would answer this way.
But Lin Xiao Tian did not intend to give up. Hu Fu had always been with the Dong family, knew a lot about them, and had never been highly valued by them. If he could poach him, and if the Dong family were to target him in the future, he would have a capable assistant.
Moreover, Lin Xiao Tian highly admired Hu Fu's skills. The fact that he could gradually rise from an ordinary psychologist to a subordinate of the Dong family was something many doctors couldn't achieve, indicating his true capability.
"Dr. Hu, I'll be direct. I've started a company and need a team of talented individuals. If you're interested, contact me directly. I've already sent the specific details to your email."
After speaking, Lin Xiao Tian hung up the phone.
Hu Fu was dumbfounded.
Lin Xiao Tian actually wanted to recruit him?
He then clicked on his email and found a new email.
However, this email address was his private one, which ordinary people shouldn't know.
Lin Xiao Tian frowned.
It seemed Lin Xiao Tian indeed had some abilities to find this out.
His gaze fell on the email. If he deleted it now, he could prove his innocence regarding today's events. But after a moment's thought, he finally opened the email.
Meanwhile, after Lin Xiao Tian finished his call with Hu Fu, he received a call from Guo Lin Qing.
"Hey! Xiao Tian, you went to see Guo Xu, why didn't you tell me?"
"You lent him money. If you're good to people like him, they'll only get worse. Hurry up and come with me, I'll help you get your money back."
Guo Lin Qing said anxiously on the phone.
This was originally her own mess, but now it had implicated Lin Xiao Tian as well.
"No need. The money has already been lent out. How can I ask for it back immediately?"
"But... you don't understand him..." Guo Lin Qing became anxious, "Sigh! You'll definitely never get this money back."
Lin Xiao Tian, however, was not worried at all.
He believed that with Guo Xu's personality of bullying the weak and fearing the strong, he would never dare to default on his debt.
"How about this! Consider this money borrowed from you. I still have some salary left this month, I'll repay you a portion first, and the rest I'll pay back monthly."
"No need. Guo Xu owes the money, not you, and we even signed a contract. I believe he will definitely repay the money."
Guo Lin Qing felt as if she had heard a joke.
"You believe him?"
"Don't worry! He will definitely repay the money."
Hearing Lin Xiao Tian's confident reply, Guo Lin Qing was a bit bewildered.
"By the way, if he asks you for money again in the future, tell him to repay my money first, otherwise, he shouldn't expect to borrow any more."
"But..."
"Don't worry!"
Lin Xiao Tian comforted Guo Lin Qing a few more times and then hung up.
After hanging up, Guo Lin Qing was deep in thought. Soon, she understood Lin Xiao Tian's intention.
Lin Xiao Tian was using the privilege of this loan to restrain Guo Xu.
If Guo Xu were to ask her for money again, she could present this contract, and he would be hesitant to borrow more, which would effectively solve her problem.
However, this was still a hundred thousand yuan!
Perhaps to Lin Xiao Tian, this amount was negligible, but to Guo Lin Qing, it was an immense sum.
Thinking of this, Guo Lin Qing couldn't help but feel a warmth in her heart.
But why was Lin Xiao Tian so good to her?
Could it be that he liked her?
Thinking of this, Guo Lin Qing couldn't help but recall the scene from last night.
If Lin Xiao Tian truly liked her, then she wouldn't have to be so secretive anymore.
After handling affairs in Jiang City, Lin Xiao Tian returned to Jinsha Village.
At the entrance of Jinsha Village's mountain road, the left side of the road had already been repaired for a considerable distance. Lin Xiao Tian even saw several acquaintances among the construction team, all villagers he had introduced.
"Yo! Xiao Tian, you're back!"
"I'm back." Lin Xiao Tian smiled politely. "Uncle Hong, is the road construction work tough?"
"Not tough? How could it be tough? This is a good thing that benefits our village. No matter how tough, it's worth it!" Uncle Hong wiped the sweat from his forehead, revealing a row of white teeth.
Seeing the villagers' enthusiasm, Lin Xiao Tian was also very satisfied.
After Lin Xiao Tian left, other workers nearby gathered around.
"Hey, buddy, who is this person?" This worker was one of the troublemakers from before. Seeing Lin Xiao Tian's enthusiasm towards Uncle Hong, he was very curious.
"You mean Xiao Tian? He's a kid from my village. He's paying for this road to be built!" Uncle Hong said, praising Lin Xiao Tian.
"From the same village?" The troublemaker's heart skipped a beat.
When the villagers from Jinsha Village first arrived, they had thought about how to get rid of them, as these people were too uncooperative, not only working actively but also never participating in any disturbances, greatly hindering their attempts to inflate prices.
But now, learning of Lin Xiao Tian's close relationship with them, they had to reconsider.
Upon returning to the village, Lin Xiao Tian saw that Qin Yu Xiang had already prepared lunch.
Although he had told Qin Yu Xiang that he had eaten lunch in Jiang City, Qin Yu Xiang was still worried that Lin Xiao Tian might go hungry, so she had prepared lunch for him as well.
"You're back. Are you hungry? I've prepared food," Qin Yu Xiang smiled sweetly.
Lin Xiao Tian shook his head.
"By the way, Sister Yu Xiang, there's something I need to tell you."
"What is it?" Qin Yu Xiang asked casually.
"I saw Li Da Zhu in Jiang City."
