Chapter 163 Becoming a Non-Staff Member
Zhu Houde spoke in a sincere and humble tone, like an elder discussing with a younger generation: "Child! Don't you still have to support your younger brother? If you join us and give you a non-staff salary, it will solve all your worries, right?
Don't hesitate, join us! You're educated, courageous, and knowledgeable. To put it bluntly, if we hadn't invited you to join us, it would have been difficult to rescue those six exploration workers in this case.
I'm not lying to you. I'm telling you the truth. We tried everything, but we couldn't find a single clue. I'm being frank with you because I know you're a child of modesty. If it were any other person, I'd never tell you.
My child! Your abilities are far beyond my imagination. We really need you. We really need you. Would you like to join us? I sincerely invite you.
The person in front of her was practically begging her, and Bai Yangfan was a little frightened. She hadn't expected that a high-ranking government official would beg a little-known person like her for the sake of the country, just to get her to join them, give her a salary to support her brother, and meet all her needs.
Isn't this too unbelievable? No one in the organization in her previous life had ever spoken to her in a nice tone, and most of the time they had done things in an order-like manner.
The only person who was always with her and talked to her nicely ended up shooting her.
Seeing Bai Yangfan lost in deep thought, Lu Jingheng clenched his hands and looked particularly nervous. He was really afraid that she would refuse to join.
She knew that women had always kept their distance from him, and it would be a huge loss to the team if he refused to join.
Bai Yangfan is so outstanding that his knowledge in some aspects has completely overturned their thinking.
Such talents are extremely scarce in their team, and they must join them to be safe. What if the mule comes and forcibly takes her away one day? Even if this worry is almost unfounded, he does not want this woman to be discovered and taken away by other countries.
"Child! If you need time to think about it, I can give you some. Is a week enough?" Zhu Houde's eyes showed a kind smile. "I hope you won't take too long to think about it. I'm afraid I won't be able to wait. Every day you don't join us is a worry for me. Only when you are one of us can I sleep peacefully."
Looking up at Zhu Houde, Bai Yangfan nodded: "Okay! In order to let you sleep well, I agree to join you."
"Really?" Zhu Houde laughed happily, "Hahaha! I knew you were a kind person, kid. Thank you! Thank you! It's really great that you've joined us. We're really a great addition!"
Lu Jingheng also showed a happy smile and extended his hand to Bai Yangfan: "Yangfan! Welcome aboard."
Her eyes fell on the man's hand. She couldn't do anything too much in front of the leader, so she shook it symbolically and then asked Zhu Houde, "I can only be a non-staff member. You can only come to me when you encounter difficulties. Don't delay my studies at other times. Also, you must settle the school affairs."
"No problem." Zhu Houde smiled so hard that his mouth couldn't close. "I've already been to your school and greeted your principal, Zhen. As long as there's a mission for you, he'll let you go, don't worry!"
Bai Yangfan was stunned for a moment, then realized that she had been fooled by her leader.
"Leader! You're so mean." Bai Yangfan smiled faintly and stood up. "I have to go back. My brother is waiting for me at home."
Seeing that she was about to leave, Zhu Houde and Lu Jingheng stood up and saw her out.
"I'll have someone drive you back. Your brother is already taken care of, so there's no rush. Yang Fan! Your matter is settled. I'll meet you at school tomorrow and get some paperwork signed, and we'll be done. Kid! Don't go back on your promise to Grandpa. You can't go back to sleep and then change your mind tomorrow."
Grandpa? Looking at Zhu Houde deeply, Bai Yangfan felt that it would be nice to have such a grandfather.
"Don't worry! Have a good sleep tonight. Since I, Bai Yangfan, have promised, I won't go back on my word. Grandpa? I think that's a good title. Can I keep calling you that?"
"Of course." Zhu Houde's eyes narrowed into slits as he smiled. "Hahaha! If I had a wonderful granddaughter like you, people would say I, Old Zhu, am so lucky wherever I go."
"Okay! It's settled then. I'll call you grandpa, but don't think I'm annoying." Bai Yangfan said, turning around, waving goodbye, and getting in the car. "Grandpa! I'm leaving."
"Hey! Great!" Zhu Houde was really happy, happier than if he had picked up gold.
Just now he deliberately called himself grandpa out of pride. It would have been fine if the girl didn't recognize him, but he didn't expect the girl to recognize him. He was so happy that he wanted to jump for joy.
He also knew the girl's background. She had lost her parents and grandparents, and only had a younger brother. What an outstanding child, not only smart and beautiful, but also full of sense of justice.
Even though it's none of her business, she will still help if she can.
Half a ton of gold was given to the country, and if someone was greedy, they would have kept it for themselves and told no one, and no one would have known about it. Otherwise, it wouldn't be impossible to sell it to a neighboring country during the National Games. After all, Liujia Village is just over the mountain and there's another country.
But she didn't do that, instead she gave the gold to the country.
She was also the first one to discover the matter of King Li's tomb. This child is so smart that it leaves people speechless and makes them look at her with new eyes.
More importantly, he is knowledgeable and talented, and even understands the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches.
I don’t know how her grandmother raised her, but she really cultivated a genius for the country!
So amazing, so capable.
When Zhang Yong, Bai Han, Fei Wen and Xu Keshan saw Bai Yangfan leaving, they all stood together and saluted until they could no longer see him.
Zhu Houde was very happy today and announced the good news in public: "Bai Yangfan has decided to join us."
"What? Old man! Is this true?" Realizing that he addressed her incorrectly, Zhang Yong immediately covered his mouth with his hands, a wry smile on his face. "Sorry! Slip of the tongue! Slip of the tongue!"
"I'm in a good mood today, so I won't bother with you." Zhu Houde said with a tolerant expression, "I'm a magnanimous man." "If you dare to call me that again, I'll punish you by making 500 push-ups without any rest."
Zhang Yong's legs went weak and he almost fell to his knees. "Got it, I won't do it again. Hehehe! Old... Leader! Did my sister-in-law really agree to join us? That's great. You don't know how amazing and awesome my sister-in-law is."
Tsk tsk tsk! I've never admired many people in my life, but my sister-in-law is one of them, and she's number one. Her steadiness, her intelligence, her insight—it's amazing."
"Sister-in-law?" Zhu Houde glared at Zhang Yong with a sullen face. "Yang Fan is my newly adopted granddaughter, not your sister-in-law. She and Lu Jingheng didn't even get married. If you dare to call me that again, you'll do 500 push-ups for me."
