After listening to the new boss's final decision, soone imdiately said: "No objections, no objections, this decision is fair and just, we are ready to cooperate with the investigation."
Everyone still believed in Gong Kaishan's integrity, so they weren't afraid of anything being uncovered.
Soone leaned over to Gong Kaishan, cheerfully saying, "Brother Shan, from now on, wiping tables and sweeping floors will be up to you, ha."
"Get lost, get lost, get lost!" Gong Kaishan said with a frustrated look on his face: "Say one more word and I'll stuff a rag into your mouth."
The speaker imdiately fell silent, but still couldn't hold back their laughter.
Gong Kaishan sighed to the heavens: "I offered my heart to the bright moon, but alas, the moon shines on the ditch... Thinking of , Gong Kaishan, a proud man, now having to do such work as wiping tables and sweeping floors."
Everyone's expressions darkened, as they were used to Gong Kaishan's crude and vulgar style; now that he suddenly seed cultured, they found it awfully awkward.
After a while, Gong Kaishan raised his thick eyebrows: "Why are you all staring at ? Get back to sleep!"
The crowd breathed a sigh of relief, feeling comforted — this was the original Gong Kaishan.
They hadn't walked far when suddenly, a voice ca from the roof again: "By the way, I forgot to ntion that from now on, core mbers no longer have the authority to directly appoint reserve mbers.
If you find suitable talent, you can compile a dossier and give it to for personal confirmation.
I've said my piece, good night everyone, hurry up and sleep, there are only two hours until sunrise..."
At the end, there was even a yawn.
A mont later, everyone sprinted towards the villa like it was a hundred-ter dash, eager to sleep.
Gong Kaishan reached his hand out to Qian Shaoyuan: "Give the bag."
"You've already been grounded to clean, why dress so nicely?" Qian Shaoyuan said begrudgingly: "Besides, anyone can vouch that you gave the bag to , so it's mine, got nothing to do with you."
"I see you're itching for trouble, kid!" Gong Kaishan glared.
Qian Shaoyuan knew sothing was wrong, so he started running, with Gong Kaishan imdiately chasing after him.
Li Ying glanced at the empty roof and murmured to herself: "First catch Gong Kaishan's violation and make a big issue of it.
Then use everyone's reluctance for Gong Kaishan to leave as a pretext, punishing him to keep him around, making a favor with the flow... A slap and then a sweet date, simple yet effective strategies, truly impressive!"
However, at this mont, a head suddenly popped up from the roof: "Auntie, talking behind soone's back is very unbecoming, you know. I'm still young, not as scheming as you think."
After saying that, it vanished instantly.
This ghostly behavior was exactly like Xue Nuofu.
And Li Ying's face had turned livid, her clenched fists slightly trembling.
She actually dared to call her Auntie!
...
Dawn broke, the sun slowly climbing from the horizon.
Xiao Feng and the others stood in a line, letting the morning breeze brush over them, squinting, quietly watching the process.
"Watching the sunrise from the mountain top, it's my first ti." The little girl pulled a Polaroid from her backpack and suggested with a smile, "Let's take a photo, shall we?"
No one objected, nodding in agreent.
"You two, co here!" The little girl looked at ng Lang and Wu Yu.
The two cannon fodders without jackets obediently walked over.
"Take a group photo for us, make sure it looks beautiful." The little girl instructed seriously.
"Okay." Wu Yu nodded like a chicken pecking rice, stepping forward to take the Polaroid.
But the little girl seed to rember sothing, pointed at ng Lang: "You take the photo for us."
"I've worked at a photo studio for a while, can't say professional, but I'm pretty good." Wu Yu volunteered.
"I still won't let you take the photo!" The little girl decisively refused.
"Why?"
"Just tell , have you touched long johns with your hands?"
Wu Yu imdiately understood, a look of sha and anger flashing in his eyes, secretly holding a grudge.
ng Lang took the cara and snapped a group photo for everyone.
The photo quickly erged from the top, though the Polaroid's resolution didn't match a DSLR, it didn't require special developnt — snap it, and it ca out right away.
"Old Zhao, why do you look like an addict in the photo?"
Xiao Feng looked at Zhao Guo'an in the photo, with a weary face and huge eye bags, asking sowhat puzzled.
Zhao Guo'an was imdiately displeased: "Nonsense, it's all your fault — several days in a row, couldn't eat well, couldn't sleep well, running around restless, I've lost a lot of weight!"
"That's wrong of you, just look at Master Sun and Ninth Grandpa, they're still able to cope despite their ages, how co you're so delicate?"
The two bickered with each other, calling everyone to walk into the bamboo forest.
After waking up in the morning, Xiao Feng had already figured out the way down the mountain, the current situation much better than it was in the cavern.
At least if they couldn't proceed forward, retreating was relatively easy.
Not far into the bamboo forest, Ninth Grandpa pulled out a small pair of scissors and a red ball of thread from the bag, cutting off a segnt every twenty steps, wrapping it around a bamboo stalk.
"When I was young, I went into deep forests too, these places easily disorient you, so it's better to be cautious, mark the way, to avoid losing direction." Ninth Grandpa explained.
Xiao Feng laughed: "A sly old fox of a man, truly worthy of Ninth Grandpa."
Ninth Grandpa furrowed his brows, feeling Xiao Feng wasn't praising him.
Because if it was a complint, saying "old ginger is spicier" would be better than "a sly old fox of a man."
Having walked a good distance, Lin Zhiyan patted the little girl's shoulder: "Do you understand the necessity of Ninth Grandpa's actions now?"
The little girl nodded, at first when she entered the forest, she thought Ninth Grandpa was making a fuss over nothing.
But now, looking around, all she saw were crisscrossed bamboo stalks; every direction looked more or less the sa, if blindfolded and spun around, she wouldn't even know which way they ca in.
Lin Zhiyan seized the chance to enlighten the little girl: "Without clear reference points, people easily lose direction.
We often say seeing is believing, but sotis even what you see isn't real.
Like now, even if you're walking in a straight line, you might actually be going in circles."
At that mont, animal cries sounded.
"Cluck cluck cluck!"
"Sounds like chicken calls?" Zhao Guo'an said uncertainly.
Xiao Feng listened for a while, saying: "It's chicken calls, and definitely wild chickens, different from dostic ones."
"Wow, Xiao, I didn't know you were so into 'chickens.'" Zhao Guo'an teased, deliberately emphasizing the word "chicken."
"I'm flattered!" Xiao Feng chuckled: "I'm planning to start a farm next, interested in investing?"
"A farm?"
Zhao Guo'an was puzzled, not understanding why Xiao Feng suddenly switched the topic, but he still subconsciously asked: "What kind of farm?"
"A farm for animals that have hard you and are poisonous." Xiao Feng said with a playful smile.
"..." Zhao Guo'an.
