Chapter 587: Chapter 588 Kneeling to Deliver Documents_1

Gou Huo anxiously asked his relatives who had used their connections to get into the research institute what the phone number for Xinmeng Group was.

They all shook their heads.

Who would care about that.

"Maybe Deputy Director Zhang knows,"

someone suggested.

Yes! Yes, yes, yes! Zhang Wei! Zhang Wei must know!

Gou Huo picked up his cell phone to call Zhang Wei, only to find that the phone had gotten wet and couldn’t be used.

He frantically grabbed a security guard’s phone.

He now had to hurry.

Because he vaguely remembered Xiao Chen saying that the documents had to be delivered by the end of the day, otherwise he’d be responsible for the consequences.

At the time, he hadn’t taken it seriously, but now his scalp was tingling.

"Hello, Old Zhang?"

"Director Gou, I’m busy at the moment, so if you have something to say, make it quick!"

Is Zhang Wei busy?

You could say he’s busy, but also not busy.

Because he’s dining at a hotel.

"Old Zhang, don’t hang up, please don’t hang up. It’s a matter of life and death, I’m begging you!"

Gou Huo was almost crying: "I’m kneeling down for you, kneeling down! It was wrong of me to have you resign.

I am the bastard!"

Zhang Wei was stunned; that arrogant, shameless Gou Huo was actually begging?

He looked over at Xiao Chen sitting at another table, feeling as if he were dreaming.

"How should I reply to him?"

Zhang Wei covered the phone’s mouthpiece with his hand and then looked at Xiao Chen to ask.

"As you feel!"

Xiao Chen said with a smile.

Zhang Wei nodded and shouted into the phone, "Go to hell, idiot!"

After shouting it out, he felt really relieved; he had been bullied a lot at the institute over the years, and since he was stubborn, not many people liked him.

No one stood up for him.

Now, it felt really exhilarating.

After swearing, Zhang Wei suddenly realized something was off: "Mr. Xiao, Gou Huo suddenly asking me for Xinmeng Group’s number, could it be he’s planning to send us the documents?"

"How could that be! Just two hours ago, he swore that he would never give us the documents no matter what."

Jiang Meng shook her head: "Can someone change their mind so quickly? He probably wants the phone number to curse at us to feel better."

"I don’t know if he’s capricious, but if the boss says he’s coming, then he will definitely come!"

Ghost Blade said.

"That makes sense."

Jiang Meng looked at Xiao Chen, and although she didn’t know by what means, she knew her husband was reliable.

Xinmeng Group had encountered many crises that Xiao Chen had resolved for the company.

She really didn’t know what would happen to Xinmeng Group without Xiao Chen.

So she trusted Xiao Chen a hundred percent.

Even though she did not know much about him.

But she knew that Xiao Chen would give everything for her, and that was enough.

"Wife, when that guy comes later, don’t go soft on him,"

Xiao Chen said to Jiang Meng.

He knew Jiang Meng had a kind heart and couldn’t stand to see someone suffer.

So, he gave her a preemptive reminder.

"You really think your wife is some kind of saint, huh? That kind of person doesn’t deserve any sympathy,"

Jiang Meng shook her head.

She never considered herself some kind of saintly white lotus, she was kind to good people, kind to people who suffered, but she was never kind to the wicked.

The Buddha could cut flesh to feed eagles, but she could not.

She was just an ordinary person!

And what Xiao Chen appreciated about her was exactly this clarity in love and hatred.

If Jiang Meng were really like the Buddha, he would actually dislike her; what is a person without love or hate, if not a rubber doll?

Half an hour later, they were almost done eating and ready to leave the Tianhai Grand Hotel.

A waiter came in and said, "President Ding, there’s a person named Gou Huo outside who says he has urgent matters for a Mr. Xiao!"

"Excuse me, should I let him in?"

"Speak of the devil, and he shall appear. But this guy sure is something, he actually knows we’re here."

Xiao Chen smiled and said, "Let him come in!"

With so many people here, he really wanted to see if Gou Huo would actually kneel down and beg for mercy.

Jiang Meng also smiled, sitting there drinking tea, not wanting to get involved in today’s matter anymore.

She could just leave it to her little assistant.

After all, she wasn’t good at this kind of thing.

Even though she wasn’t the Virgin Mary or a white lotus, teaching someone a lesson just wasn’t something she could do.

Her innate kindness was hard to shed, and she had no plans to change it.

Even after tasting the bitterness of society, Jiang Meng had always maintained her kindness.

It was a life choice.

Very rare.

To plunge into darkness was very easy, all it took was following one’s feelings.

But to be kind took great willpower and determination.

Outside the hotel entrance, Gou Huo paced back and forth, anxious and uneasy.

Because he didn’t know what fate awaited him, all he could do was try his best to make amends.

Fortunately, he had found Xiao Chen.

Otherwise, his life would have been over by tomorrow.

The lobby manager came out and said to Gou Huo, "Mr. Xiao invites you in!"

Gou Huo nodded continuously, expressing his utmost gratitude.

Normally, he wouldn’t give a damn about people in the service industry.

The number of hotel waiters and hotel lobby managers he had hit wasn’t ten, then it was certainly eight.

But today, he didn’t dare act like that, his face showing a flattery reserved for superiors.

He hurriedly followed the lobby manager into the private room.

As soon as he entered, he knelt down.

For someone like him, kneeling wasn’t a difficult task.

Don’t look at how they treat their subordinates or those beneath them with arrogance and bullying behavior,

But when faced with someone more powerful, they really turn into fawning dogs.

"What are you kneeling for?"

Xiao Chen asked indifferently as he sipped his tea.

"Mr. Xiao, today’s incident was a complete misunderstanding.

I came here to obey your request, to kneel and bring you those research materials.

Please do accept them."

Gou Huo knelt there, speaking obsequiously, as if he were ingratiating himself to a superior.

But he seemed not to understand Xiao Chen very well.

Xiao Chen truly detested this kind of person.

"Put it over there."

Xiao Chen said indifferently.

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Gou Huo placed all the paper and electronic materials on the table next to Xiao Chen.

"Who told you to stand up?"

Xiao Chen’s voice was cold.

Gou Huo jumped in fright; having been halfway up, he knelt down again.

"Over the years, you must have swallowed quite a bit for yourself, haven’t you?"

Xiao Chen still spoke calmly.

"Hmm!"

Gou Huo didn’t speak.

"Don’t want to talk? Then forget it, you can go. Take these materials with you. Director Gou has too much pride for me to handle."

Xiao Chen said dismissively.

"I did, I did! I swallowed donations amounting to tens of millions!"

Gou Huo hurriedly said.

These were words he dared not speak, yet had to.

Against someone even Storm Group feared, what could he, a small fry, do?

Besides, these were sins he had committed himself.

No one had forced him.
