Even her hands on the desk were shaking slightly, but she was playing Tai Chi with him and couldn't help but say.
"You don't know, you really don't know? You're so scared, look at you, your hands are shaking!"
Wang Mingsheng followed Huang Xiang's gaze and saw that his hands on the desk were trembling slightly.
Sure enough, he still couldn't overcome the psychological fear of reselling supplies for the first time. He was still afraid and didn't even notice that his hands were shaking.
Of course, Wang Mingsheng was very scared, but he tried his best to control his emotions and not show them. He used his other hand to tightly hold his trembling hand, quickly put it under the table, and said in a low voice.
"This...wasn't it yesterday when we went to collect supplies? I saw Xiao Zheng was having a hard time moving the goods by himself, so I lent a hand. Turns out... there were more goods than I expected, and we worked until dark. My hands are still shaking from all the moving."
After hearing what Wang Mingsheng said, Huang Xiang seemed to have suddenly realized something.
"Oh, you guys are really working hard. Your hands are shaking from carrying all the supplies. You're really putting in a lot of effort."
Hearing Huang Xiang praising him inexplicably, Wang Mingsheng felt even more uneasy. He stood up, pointed at the office sofa beside him and greeted him.
"Director Huang, what's the matter with you coming to see me? Come sit over there and tell me slowly!"
Since it is not clear yet and you still want to find out what your purpose is, why not sit down and talk slowly, and he can slowly get at the question.
Huang Xiang glanced at the sofa in the office area and waved his hand to refuse.
"I won't sit down. I came to see you today because I really have something to ask."
Wang Mingsheng's defenses were about to break. It was his first time reselling supplies, and his boss suddenly came to check on him. Moreover, he kept whining and talking, but he never got to the point. What on earth did he want? Tell me, has his reselling business been exposed? Just give him a clear answer!
Although he was very nervous, Wang Mingsheng still forced a smile and looked at Huang Xiang with a sincere expression.
"Director Huang, look at what you said. We are superiors and subordinates. If there is anything, just give me the order directly. Please tell me, what is it?"
You're driving me crazy. If someone doesn't know, they would think you're an undercover agent trying to cheat me.
Huang Xiang looked at Wang Mingsheng with a stern gaze, and his voice suddenly became serious.
"There's just one thing, it's about you!"
When Wang Mingsheng heard this, he was so scared that his legs went weak and he almost knelt down in front of Huang Xiang. Fortunately, Huang Xiang was quick to support him and said softly.
"Deputy Director Wang, don't worry, this matter isn't that serious!"
Wang Mingsheng looked at Huang Xiang with a look of despair, and couldn't help roaring in his heart.
"What the hell is going on? Just tell me the truth. You've been going on for so long and you haven't explained anything clearly. I'm almost losing my mind. Are you really forcing me to turn myself in? It's just reselling some supplies. This is his first time reselling supplies. It shouldn't be enough to be court-martialed. At most, he should be expelled from the army and transferred to a local civilian job."
Wang Mingsheng was crying bitterly in his heart, but he still showed a smile that was uglier than crying on his face and continued.
"Director Huang, what's going on? Please tell me!"
If Huang Xiang didn't tell him what happened, Wang Mingsheng couldn't be sure that his fist would hit Huang Xiang in the next second.
I finally got transferred to the logistics department, and I didn't communicate much with my direct superior. I didn't expect this guy to be such a troublemaker.
Moreover, he's been beating around the bush and hasn't gotten to the point yet. How did this guy become the director of the logistics department? Did he do Tai Chi?
Just when Wang Mingsheng was about to break down and cry, Huang Xiang finally said something serious about Wang Mingsheng that he had mentioned.
"What I want to talk about is that your mother smashed up someone's clinic. The police station has now filed a case. The police station called us and asked our department to assist in the investigation. They also asked me everything about you. I figured I should talk to you about this matter. After all, the next step is to compensate the clinic for its losses, and it's up to you, as her son, to do it."
As soon as Huang Xiang finished speaking, the tension in Wang Mingsheng's heart finally eased, and he couldn't help but complain in his heart.
"Fuck, why is Huang Xiang so serious about the family members' matter? He looks like the sky is falling, and he even said that the matter regarding him is not serious. I scared him so much that he almost knelt down and turned himself in, confessing that he was reselling supplies."
Fortunately, everything had nothing to do with his reselling of supplies from the troops. All of Wang Mingsheng's collapse and vigilance disappeared at this moment.
He felt an inexplicable sense of relief in his heart, feeling the dark clouds of collapse and urgency slowly dissipating. Wang Mingsheng couldn't help but let out a breath and said calmly.
"What? My mother vandalized someone's clinic. The police station has filed a case and asked our department to assist in the investigation. And they want me to... pay compensation?"
At the end of his speech, Wang Mingsheng's voice gradually became softer, and he realized belatedly that the matter seemed to be quite serious.
But compared to his reselling of supplies from the troops, it was far inferior.
Wait, his mother vandalized someone else's clinic, so how could she be asking for compensation? Also, didn't his mother return to the countryside? Why was she vandalizing someone else's clinic again? The police station even filed a case. Wang Mingsheng's eyes were filled with confusion, and his mouth, faster than his brain, opened its mouth to ask.
"Director Huang, what did you just say? My mother smashed up someone else's clinic, and the police station filed a case? How is that possible? My mother returned to her hometown a few days ago, and I personally sent her to the military gate."
That’s right, a few days ago, Lin Cuihua asked him for money, but he sent her back to the countryside. At that time, he was already penniless and had to make a living by selling his body. How could he have the money to take care of his old mother!
Moreover, if Lin Cuihua was still in Beicheng, why hadn't she come to see him these past few days? He was her son. Was it easier to be taken away by the police after smashing up the clinic than to stay with her own son?
Huang Xiang had no way to answer Wang Mingsheng's doubts, but instead said with a thoughtful look on his face.
"Oh, I thought you knew about this. When I walked into the room just now, I saw you looking so nervous. I thought you were worried about the huge amount of compensation and that you couldn't raise the money right away, so you were so nervous."
Wang Mingsheng: “…”
It was my first time reselling supplies. I was too nervous and afraid of being held accountable, so I almost exposed myself. Who would have thought that it would turn out to be such a bad thing.
Of course, what you think in your heart is one thing, and what you say out loud is another.
"It's all because of you. This is the first time my direct supervisor has come to my office to see me. I'm afraid it's something urgent, so I'm a little nervous and excited."
