Chapter 400 The Old Man Plots against Lu Jingheng
Xu Keshan: "Boss! Even if you're not in good health, there's no need to retire so quickly. You can serve as our team's advisor and still stay with us, right?"
"No." Lu Jingheng refused, glaring at Xu Keshan in dissatisfaction. "I'm not in good health, so why should I be a consultant? Can't I go home and take care of my wife? I'm tired of that nomadic life, and I'm dragging my wife along with me.
My wife was nearly crippled that day, and it scares me to think about it. From now on, I'll just stay at the Culture and Sports Bureau, do my job well, and wait for retirement. How wonderful!
"From now on, all the team matters will be handed over to you, Old Xu! You should do your best. I'm old and sometimes have a bad temper, so please bear with me. I'm no longer in good health, so I won't just take over the job. It would be better if you could step down and let someone more capable take over."
Zhang Lei muttered, "I don't care. I'll retreat wherever you retreat, Boss."
He turned around and glared at me, "How dare you? You little brat! Are you getting too bold? Have you sorted out all the cases in your hands? If not, stay here."
Zhang Yong was unconvinced and shouted, "Everything has been sorted out. There are only a few things left. I can just hand them over to them. It won't affect my discharge from the army."
Bai Han: "If you all leave, I'll leave too. I don't want to stay here anymore."
Fei Wen glanced at Lu Jingheng, whose face was dark and furious, and advised Bai Han: "Don't say such things. The boss had to leave because he was injured. If you want to leave, the old man won't approve. Everyone has left, leaving him alone as a commander without troops. How cruel!"
Xu Keshan is also a very rational person. He looked at Lu Jingheng and said, "When I first came in, I came here for you. Over the years, you have led us to create miracles time and time again and smash various conspiracies time and time again. If you leave, it will be really boring to stay in the team.
Expecting me to lead them to greater glory? Boss! You're mistaken. I'm your legs, not your brain. I can't bear such a heavy burden.
You can let me stay, Boss! You must be our advisor, or I will support them in retiring, including myself.
"Nonsense! If you all leave, how will the old man explain to the department? Old Xu! You are not making things difficult for me, you are making things difficult for the old man." Lu Jingheng's voice rose a degree, with absolute deterrent power.
As long as he was in front of them, he would no longer show any gentleness, but would be filled with hostility.
"Just because he approved my retirement, you have to follow him? Honestly, I don't care. I've already completed all the formalities and I'm already at the Culture and Sports Bureau. Even if the old man wants to go back on his word, it's not possible. Whether you can even withdraw is still up for debate. Go ahead and make a fuss, but don't bother me at my house."
Seeing that the boss was getting impatient, Xu Keshan gave him a sympathetic look: "Boss! Do you think you have retired after coming to the Culture and Sports Bureau? Not necessarily! I have inquired about it, and your documents are still with the ministry, and they haven't approved them at all.
The old man said he went back and forth several times but to no avail. The department said you must be a member of our team, otherwise they won't approve your application. Did you transfer your file when you went to the Culture and Sports Bureau?"
Zhang Yong's eyes widened instantly, and he was extremely happy. "What? So the boss hasn't retired yet? That's great! As long as the boss is still here, we will always be with him."
Bai Han: "Me too, I'll sacrifice my life for a gentleman."
Fei Wen laughed dumbly: "The old man is really capable. When he schemes against people, nothing is wrong. Boss! Just admit your defeat!"
"I admit nothing." Lu Jingheng was about to explode. He stood up, put his hands on his hips, and his masseter muscles were obvious on his face. "Cunning old man, you're waiting for me here. I said I wanted to go to the Culture and Sports Bureau, but I don't need to go through any procedures. It seems you don't even want to give it to me.
We clearly agreed on this, why are you forcing me to give it to you? This old man is so abominable, I will go find him tomorrow, and if he doesn’t give it to me, I will refuse to leave his house.”
As he was speaking passionately, Bai Yangfan came in and suddenly replied, "That's exactly what he wants. If you have the guts, go now. You'll live and eat at his house from now on. I guarantee he'll be grinning from ear to ear."
Why did she say that?
Didn't Zhu Houde go to the school to find her? He tried his best to persuade her to let Lu Jingheng stay in the team, saying that he had to be the consultant of their team.
When he has nothing to do, he stays in the Culture and Sports Bureau. If there is anything that cannot be solved, he and his wife will have to take action.
After all, Xu Keshan is calm enough but lacks judgment, and the fresh blood that comes in has no experience.
What was he to do? Scratch the surface?
He also promised Bai Yangfan that in three to five years at most, once he had trained his successors, he would retire with them. This was also the intention of the department's leaders.
Bai Yangfan had no objection and agreed to come back to persuade Lu Jingheng. Unexpectedly, he heard what he said when he walked in and started to retort.
After hearing what his wife said, Lu Jingheng immediately became depressed and complained bitterly: "The old man is not polite in his work. He promised to let me retire, but he secretly withheld my file. Wife! Your grandfather is too mean. Let's ignore him from now on."
Zhang Yong: “…” What happened to the boss? His heart was injured, could it be that his brain was damaged too? How could such a child say such words to complain to his parents?
Bai Han: “······” The boss is very flexible and is becoming more and more gentle in front of Xiaobai.
Feiwen: “······” I want to laugh. The boss probably doesn’t submit to anyone except Xiaobai. There is always someone who can conquer you.
Xu Keshan: “······” As long as Xiaobai supports him, the boss can’t leave even if he wants to. The old man is really good at scheming. The old man is still the best.
"You can ignore him, but I can't. He's my grandfather." Bai Yangfan's calm words left Lu Jingheng speechless.
He sighed helplessly, "Alright! I'm an old man, I know how to be roundabout. If I don't approve it, then I don't approve it. It doesn't matter. As long as I can stay in the Culture and Sports Bureau every day, I'm satisfied."
After hearing his words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, especially Xu Keshan. From now on, as long as the boss was there to give him guidance, he would not be afraid of being helpless when encountering problems.
With the addition of Xiaobai, the team is still the team, they are still them, just with some minor changes, no major changes.
Zhu Houde also knew that his men wouldn't stay in the team forever, and he himself had reached the age to retire. However, it was impossible for all of them to quit all at once. There had to be a time, a process, and a gradual process.
No matter who he talked to, it might not be possible to persuade Lu Jingheng. The only one who could persuade him was his granddaughter. He went to the school to find Bai Yangfan and told her his plan bit by bit.
Please ask her to support him until the day he retires.
Bai Yangfan agreed without hesitation. He was very pleased and felt that as long as he had her, his little lucky star, any problem he encountered could be easily solved.
It's just magical.
