Chapter 741 Account
It was a rainy day and the light was dim, but the museum lights were bright.
All employees went out together to check all the collections in the museum.
The museum is huge and houses a wide variety of cultural relics. It took more than 30 people nearly a day to check them one by one.
At night, staff members came into the conference room one after another with account books in hand to report.
"In the porcelain collection area, twelve pieces were replaced, two were lost for no apparent reason, and the ten Western pieces are..."
"Jade Art Exhibition Area: Twenty-two pieces are missing, mostly small jade jewelry. This is the list of lost items."
“Calligraphy and Painting Exhibition Area: No collections were lost.”
"Bronze Artwork Exhibition Area: No artifacts lost."
…
According to statistics, the museum lost a total of 55 cultural relics and replaced 12.
This number is enough to be shot.
Yang Fan pointed at Hu Xing's nose and cursed, "You beast! Leech!"
As if scolding was not enough, he kicked Hu Xing.
Hu Xing was kicked and twisted his leg, falling at the feet of Director Hu.
"Uncle, I was wrong. I really know I was wrong. I was just confused for a moment. Please, speak up for me and save my nephew!"
He hugged Director Hu's legs and cried bitterly.
Suddenly, Director Hu moved.
When Hu Xing thought his uncle would protect him as before, he was grabbed by the collar and pulled up roughly.
Director Hu's face was twisted slightly with anger. "Who did you sell those artifacts to? How many are still in your hands?"
Gu Xue and Yang Fan also stared at Hu Xing.
If the cultural relics cannot be recovered, these people will be investigated, dismissed from their posts, and possibly even imprisoned!
“I, I…”
Even at this point, Hu Xing still didn't realize the importance of the issue and kept hesitating and procrastinating.
No, maybe he realized it, and he wanted to drag them all into hell with him.
Director Hu seemed to have just seen his true face, and his former kindness turned into fierce hatred.
He slapped Hu Xing in the face.
“Bang!”
The sound was particularly crisp and attracted everyone's attention.
"Well done!" Wang Honghong enjoyed watching the fun and applauded.
Hu Xing's head tilted sideways after being hit, and he raised his hand in a daze to touch his cheek, which was burning and slightly numb.
He was slapped in the face by his uncle who doted on him in front of so many people.
Hu Xing is a person who cares a lot about face.
Anyone who hurts his face is his enemy.
At this moment, he completely forgot that Director Hu had just pleaded for him and knelt down in front of everyone. All he could think about was this slap in the face.
His eyes were full of hatred when he looked at Director Hu.
"You want to know, don't you?"
Gu Xue noticed the paranoia in Hu Xing's eyes and thought to himself that something was wrong.
As expected, Hu Xing said in a hateful voice, "I won't tell you!"
"I'm the only one who knows the whereabouts of those artifacts. If I don't make you happy, none of you can find out!"
This scoundrel actually used this matter to threaten everyone!
Director Hu shook his head in disbelief, looking at Hu Xing with a strange look:
"You, how did you become like this!"
Ancient learning reveals sarcasm.
"He didn't become like this. It was only today that you saw his true face."
As if the atmosphere wasn't lively enough, Sun Baiqing interrupted, "Ye Rou is right. How did someone like you become the director of the museum?"
Director Hu has never been scolded more times in his life than today.
In an instant, he seemed to have aged ten years, and his straight back collapsed.
"It's my fault. If I hadn't let him into the museum, none of this would have happened."
Seeing his knees weaken and about to fall to his knees, Gu Xue quickly supported him and said, "Alright, the most urgent thing now is to find all the lost collections!"
Hu Xing grinned when he heard this, and sat down on the table with his feet on it: "If you want to know, then kneel down and beg me!"
He raised his hand and swept his fingertips over Yang Fan, Gu Xue, and Director Hu.
"Kneel down and kowtow to me. If I am satisfied, I will tell you the whereabouts of the cultural relics."
"Don't even think about it!" Yang Fan felt as if someone had poured a basin of feces on his head, and he was angry and indignant.
Hu Xing stomped his feet on the table twice and tilted his head slightly: "Uncle, don't you think you are wrong and want to make amends? Kowtow to me and I will tell you."
Director Hu can bow to anyone, but he will never kneel down to a beast who has done something wrong!
Gu Xue had the same idea as him. The two stood together and glared at Hu Xing.
"You two old guys are quite tough." Hu Xing's eyes turned slightly, and when he saw Ye Rou, he suddenly stopped.
Everything happened too fast today. Hu Xing was afraid that the lost cultural relics would be discovered, so he felt guilty and naturally did not take a good look at Ye Rou and others.
Only at this moment did he see Ye Rou's face clearly.
The young woman sat upright in the middle of the long table, seemingly feeling bored, her long eyelashes drooping slightly, her red lips slightly pouting under her straight and delicate nose, which was particularly...
Hu Xing's eyes narrowed and he wanted to continue looking when his view was suddenly blocked by someone and he was punched in the face.
He screamed in pain, sounding a bit like a goose, "quack".
Wang Honghong put away the cynical smile on her face, shook her head left and right, and said with an extremely unhappy expression: "If you don't want your eyes, I'll dig them out for you!"
Hu Xing was so scared that he kept backing away: "You can't hit me. If you dare to touch me, you will never know the whereabouts of those cultural relics in your life."
"What does it have to do with me? What was lost was not mine!" Wang Honghong had never been to school and did not understand the value of cultural relics.
He will listen to Brother Jiang all his life.
Brother Jiang told him to protect his sister-in-law, and he wouldn't allow anyone to touch her, not even to look at her!
Wang Honghong rolled up her sleeves and was about to grab the man and give him a severe lesson.
Just as he made a move, he was hugged from behind: "Let me go!"
Yang Fan was frail and barely managed to hold Wang Honghong in his arms. He spoke rapidly, "No, you can't hit him! If you kill him, we'll never be able to recover those cultural relics!"
Wang Honghong angrily cursed, "You little idiot! I think you've become stupid from studying. He's clearly using this to threaten you!"
"I have the best way to deal with this kind of scoundrel. I'll kick him like a bastard. I promise you, after three kicks, he'll definitely tell the truth!"
Yang Fan thought about it carefully and felt that what Wang Honghong said made sense.
He has worked with Hu Xing for so long and knows him best.
Lazy, cunning and treacherous are adjectives tailor-made for him.
He doesn't know when to stop and is very good at taking advantage of others.
Yang Fan loosened his grip on Wang Honghong.
Wang Honghong seized the opportunity to break free from him and pounced on Hu Xing with a grin.
Hu Xing was so frightened that he jumped onto the window by stepping on a chair!
He was afraid of heights and didn't dare look down. He said in a low, trembling voice, "Don't come over here, or I'll jump!"
Wang Honghong sneered: "Go ahead and jump, do you dare to jump?"
Raindrops splashed on Hu Xing's face, and a cool breeze blew in from his sleeves, chilling his heart. "Who said I don't dare? I'll die anyway!"
As he spoke, he moved a little closer to the window, as if he was really going to jump out.
Yang Fan suddenly became anxious: "We can't let him jump. If he dies, no one will know the whereabouts of those cultural relics."
Wang Honghong reached out to stop Yang Fan from rushing over: "Don't worry, it's only the second floor. If you jump down, the most you'll do is break your arms and legs, but you won't die."
As he spoke, he took a few steps towards Hu Xing.
Yang Fan was so nervous that he broke out in a sweat.
He looked at Wang Honghong and then at Hu Xing, his head shaking like a rattle, his mind in a mess, and he could no longer think calmly.
On the contrary, Hu Xing, who was standing by the window, finally calmed down his feverish head after being blown by the cold wind.
He stared at Wang Honghong who was approaching, and said harshly, "If you come any closer, I'll bite off my tongue and commit suicide!"
As he spoke, his teeth bit his tongue, causing his speech to become unclear.
Wang Honghong didn't believe it at first, but with every step he took, the muscles on Hu Xing's face moved, and it was obvious that he was exerting force.
Now, no one dares to bet whether he really dares to bite it.
Wang Honghong was finally pulled back by Gu Xue.
Everyone was helpless against him and racked their brains to pull him down, but none of the methods worked.
"Get out of the way." Ye Rou said.
Gu Xue was stunned and subconsciously looked at Zheng Zhiyuan. Zheng Zhiyuan nodded to him, then pulled Wang Honghong and Yang Fan to the side to avoid them.
Ye Rou walked over slowly and finally stood in front of the window.
She was so beautiful, so stunningly gorgeous that even a pervert like Hu Xing was mesmerized by her. He loosened his hands that were holding the window, but now he tightened them again.
"Hey, beautiful lady, if you agree to sleep with me, I will tell you the whereabouts of those antiques."
Wang Honghong and Sun Baiqing were protecting Ye Rou behind her. When they heard the words, their faces turned cold and they looked at Hu Xing as if he was a dead man.
“No need.”
Ye Rou was not angered and her voice remained calm.
Liu Yutang stood in the distance and saw his little apprentice's fingertips move slightly, and a flash of golden light passed by. He squinted his eyes and looked carefully, and then he saw clearly that it seemed to be... a golden needle.
Before he could see clearly, he saw the young disciple raised his hand and the golden needle flew out, its trajectory impossible to capture with the naked eye.
Hu Xing let out a scream, and suddenly his body stiffened and fell out of the window.
Wang Honghong and Zhou Liang rushed over immediately.
After holding the man down, he noticed the golden needle on the back of Hu Xing's hand, with the tail constantly shaking.
Wang Honghong gave a thumbs up:
"Sister-in-law, you are awesome!"
