I was so busy teasing Guo Xiaoxiang and his foreign wife that I forgot why this guy came to pick me up at the airport.
"Hey Fatty, uh, Sao Rui, I'd better call you Xiao Xiang. For the sake of my neck, I'll call you Xiao Xiang." Yang Jing said with a smile, then turned his head and whispered to Gege, "When I slept in the same room with this guy, he was a round ball of 1.7 meters tall and 240 pounds. Look at him now, he has become a handsome little guy with a flat demeanor."
Guo Xiaoxiang showed off his body again. He now weighs only 140 pounds at most. He was able to lose more than 100 pounds in three years. His perseverance is definitely worthy of praise.
Gege covered her mouth and laughed, "Yang Jing, that's called being elegant, okay? Don't embarrass yourself here."
Guo Xiaoxiang also smiled and pointed at Yang Jing, making a look of disgust.
Guo Xiaoxiang came to pick up Yang Jing and brought out the bulletproof Mercedes-Benz from the Yanjing branch of Rongbao Mining, so they could all sit in one car. Christopher, who was standing by, was a little confused. He didn't understand Chinese, so he naturally couldn't understand what they were saying.
Yang Jing explained it to him in English, and Christopher immediately gave Guo Xiaoxiang a thumbs up. This guy is also a fat man, so he knows the difficulty of losing weight. And this young man in front of him was able to lose more than 100 pounds. This perseverance and persistence is absolutely worthy of praise.
"Xiao Xiang, why did you come to pick me up today? Aren't you stationed in Papua New Guinea?"
Guo Xiaoxiang pouted and shook his head, saying, "Forget about it. I wanted to continue to enjoy myself there, but dengue fever suddenly broke out in Papua New Guinea. I was afraid of being infected, so I just returned home. The two mines there have also stopped production. Except for the necessary personnel who stayed behind, all other domestic workers have returned home."
"Oh, so serious?" Hearing this, Yang Jing couldn't help but become worried.
"Well, the dengue fever outbreak in Papua New Guinea is indeed quite serious. This kind of thing usually breaks out in the summer, but who would have thought that it would break out in Papua New Guinea in June."
In order to take care of Christopher, the conversations among the people in the car are now conducted in English.
Christopher at the side understood this time. He said, "Papua New Guinea is a tropical country with hot and humid weather all year round. There are no four seasons. Once the right conditions are met for an infectious disease like dengue fever, an outbreak can be very severe. Your decision to withdraw is very correct."
Guo Xiaoxiang nodded and said, "Yes, dengue fever first broke out near Port Moresby and quickly spread to the surrounding areas. Our gold mine on New Guinea was the first to be closed. The local workers went home on holiday, and our people took a direct bus to Wewak in the north of New Guinea and left Papua New Guinea by ship from that port city. As for the silver mine, as soon as I saw that things were not going well, I immediately announced a temporary closure, the local workers went home on holiday, and our people in China immediately flew back to China via Singapore. Not long after we came back, I heard that the World Health Organization listed Papua New Guinea as a high-risk area for infectious diseases."
Gege also said, "Xiao Xiang told me about what happened there after he came back. I was also very scared. If dengue fever is a serious disease, it can be fatal."
"In fact, in the more than one week since I came back, more than 200 people have died of dengue fever in Papua New Guinea." Guo Xiaoxiang seemed to be still in shock.
Christopher crossed himself and mumbled something.
The atmosphere seemed a bit heavy, so Yang Jing changed the subject and asked, "Xiao Xiang, have you been staying in Yanjing since you came back?"
"Well, my mom's school is on summer vacation, and my dad just happened to come back from Baku to rest, so I've been living in Yanjing during this period. Yesterday, I heard from my sister-in-law that you were returning home today, and I didn't have anything to do anyway, so I came to pick you up at the airport. How about it, brother, what you did is very considerate, right?"
"Good brother!" Yang Jing gave a thumbs up, "Where are your dad and mom?"
"Well, don't mention them. My mom was fine, but she suddenly wanted to go to the beach, so my dad took her to Maldives the day before yesterday to spend some time alone. I wanted to go there at first, but my dad almost kicked me. Oh, there's nothing I can do. They are enjoying their time alone, and I, as their son, have become redundant..."
Yang Jing and Gege both burst into laughter, and Christopher beside them also chuckled.
Guo Xiaoxiang shook his head and asked, "Don't mention my dad and mom. Jing Gege, I heard from my sister-in-law that you are going to the Cayman Islands to take over a fund this time? And that fund was inherited by an old foreign Taoist priest you saved when you were in London? Is the old Taoist priest you mentioned the one you told me about before you returned to China? Are there still Taoist priests in foreign countries? This is quite rare."
Hearing Guo Xiaoxiang's question, Christopher immediately pricked up his ears. Christopher, who had known the new boss for a long time, knew that the young man who came to pick him up at the airport today was the new boss' roommate when he was in the UK. He must know about the contact between the big boss and the new boss.
"Yes, it's the foreign Taoist priest I mentioned to you before, but now I regard him as my real master, just like the four masters I worshipped before. Although I didn't really worship him as my master, ever since I met my master again that day and he told me everything, I have regarded him as my real master!"
