After hanging up the phone, Xu Fei took Huang Chengyun to a bar for drinks, and while they were drinking, he said to him, “You did a great job this time, so don’t hold back with me in the future, once the new company is set up, you can work here!”
Xu Fei, of course, knew that Huang Chengyun’s interpersonal relationships had taken a serious hit last time, and if he forced himself to keep working in his old field, he’d likely be ostracised to death.
Besides, this kid was so diligent and responsible, and Xu Fei’s new company genuinely needed someone trustworthy to manage things.
Thus, the responsibility fell on Huang Chengyun’s shoulders.
Hearing these words, Huang Chengyun couldn’t help but feel a lump in his throat.
How could he not see that Xu Fei was looking out for him? He was so moved that he nearly burst into tears.
“Lord Junshao, you’re really too considerate of me…”
“Enough with the snivelling, man up and finish this drink with me!” Xu Fei interrupted.
The two clinked their glasses together, laughing heartily as they continued drinking.
Meanwhile, in another bar across the capital, though the place was brightly lit, there wasn’t a single note of music, and the faces of everyone inside looked grim.
This made the atmosphere inside the bar feel oppressively dark and gloomy.
A man hurriedly entered through the door, and the deeper he went, the more he could hear the familiar sound of objects shattering, accompanied by bursts of cursing.
“Is Brother Xing inside?” the man asked the guard at the entrance.
The guard replied irritably, “Obviously! Can’t you hear Brother Xing throwing a fit in there? I’d advise you not to poke the bear, unless it’s something urgent, wait a bit before going in!”
But the guard didn’t know that the man was holding critical intelligence, which was why he’d rushed to the door and pushed it open without hesitation.
“Who the hell is it? Didn’t I just say no one’s allowed in without my permission? Looking to die, are you?” Wei Xinghuo roared.
At that moment, Wei Xinghuo had just grabbed a beer bottle from the table, and seeing the door opened by someone else, he grew visibly agitated.
With that, he charged over in a fury, raising the bottle high, ready to smash it down on the head of the guard at the door.
At this critical moment, the newcomer quickly raised his phone with both hands, eyes shut tight, and blurted out, “Brother Xing, please calm down, I’ve got vital intel, that’s why I dared to disturb you!”
Hearing this, Wei Xinghuo finally paused, lowering his arm, he took the phone with a mix of suspicion and curiosity, glancing at the screen, which showed an unplayed voice message.
He pressed play, and the message started, it was Xu Fei’s voice from his earlier call with his wife, discussing sending people to the capital tomorrow.
“Hmph! Xu Fei, oh Xu Fei, you probably didn’t expect your phone’s already been tapped by me, did you?” Wei Xinghuo gloated.
Hearing this news, he was over the moon, the anger and gloom on his face vanishing in an instant.
His mind began racing, and soon he devised a plan to deal with Xu Fei.
“Qiangzi, come here, I’ve got something for you to handle!” Wei Xinghuo called out.
He stepped to the door and shouted to a burly man outside, after beckoning him over, he whispered a few instructions, the man nodded immediately and left.
His plan wasn’t complicated, since Xu Fei would be transferring new employees from his original company tomorrow, he’d definitely need vehicles.
