Chapter 257 A Shot from Behind



Xu Xiangyang took the document and replied earnestly, "Chief Liao, don't worry, I will do my job well!"

They're on the same side now. If Liao Shichang doesn't like him, then he's really doomed.

Furthermore, if he can contribute his efforts and perform well in subsequent work, he might be able to obtain some important positions.

What he needs to do now is to complete every task assigned to him by his superiors, do it carefully, and not let anyone find the slightest fault with it.

Liao Shizhang didn't have anything else to say to him, so he let him go back.

Xu Xiangyang looked at the documents in his hand, then glanced at the time. He couldn't go out today.

However, he can familiarize himself with the documents first, which will make his departure tomorrow go more smoothly.

On the way back, almost everyone who saw him would give him a second glance.

Xu Xiangyang knew that this was because of what happened at noon; he had become famous.

Whether the name is good or bad is unknown, and he doesn't really care.

The most important thing is getting rid of the annoying Zhu Xingu, which will finally bring some peace and quiet.

As Xu Xiangyang went upstairs, he passed Zhu Xingu's room and found that the man was still lying in the room.

He didn't stop; he kept walking forward.

It seems the leadership didn't transfer him. How come they're not cracking down on something as heinous as stealing money?

Xu Xiangyang recalled the way Lu Shuji looked at him. Could this person be a relative of the leader?

Can you believe it? Relatives of leaders can live on the fourth floor.

Even those who had some connection with the head chef in the cafeteria's kitchen were assigned to the third floor; how could they possibly live on the fourth floor?

He didn't think much of it; after this incident, Zhu Xingu should behave himself.

If they don't behave themselves, then don't blame him for being impolite.

That evening, the cafeteria served an extra dish of chicken stew with potatoes.

At this time, the main vegetables are potatoes, cabbage, and radishes, since no vegetables have been planted yet in April.

Even if we plant potatoes, we won't be able to do it until May Day; right now, there's nothing there.

But where did this chick come from?

Xu Xiangyang turned to look at Zhang Lianhe behind him and asked, "Do we still have chickens here?"

When we arrived, we didn't see any live animals brought by the logistics team. And if they had been killed, they would have gone bad by now, since we haven't eaten them in the last two days.

Even though the temperature isn't high now, it gets quite hot at midday.

Zhang Lianhe shook his head. "I heard that someone caught two pheasants and stewed them both."

He only heard it from others, and he didn't know the specifics of the situation.

Upon hearing that someone else had made the call, Xu Xiangyang raised an eyebrow in surprise, "Wow, we have this kind of ability around here?"

I didn't realize that!

However, I had heard from the older generation that the Northeast is rich in resources, such as beating roe deer with sticks and scooping fish with ladles.

But by his time, they were no longer visible; now, there are still wild animals.

Xu Xiangyang had never seen a pheasant before and was really curious about whether it tasted good.

After queuing for ages, it was finally his turn. He got a spoonful of pheasant stew with potatoes and some mixed grain rice.

Fortunately, the person serving the food didn't have a shaky hand or a stroke, and managed to put all three pieces of chicken steadily into the lunchbox.

He held up his lunchbox and said to Zhang Lianhe, "Let's eat at my place together."

The two lived next door to each other, and since he had testified for him today, Xu Xiangyang decided to start seeing him.

At the very least, we can keep watch over the door for him!

Zhang Lianhe quickly followed him, and the two went upstairs.

Because Zhu Xingu was beaten today, there are always people around him laughing at him.

Seeing the two people getting close filled him with hatred.

If it weren't for Xu Xiangyang, he wouldn't have lost face so badly today! Not only was he laughed at, but he also got his job changed. Who could stand that?

However, he was no match for Xu Xiangyang in a direct confrontation, so he had no choice but to resort to underhanded tactics.

Who cares? I'll teach this brat a lesson when I get the chance!

The brat Xu Xiangyang led Zhang Lianhe into the house and then closed the door.

The main concern is that people might smell it and come over; it's too annoying.

"Secretary Xu, how come you have an extra piece of meat compared to mine!" Zhang Lianhe jumped up when he saw the meat in his lunchbox.

Why should I?

Xu Xiangyang didn't notice any of that and asked, "Aren't they all three pieces?"

Three pieces?!

Zhang Lianhe pushed the rice bowl over and started rummaging through his own rice bowl with his chopsticks.

"Come and look, where's the third piece?" He looked particularly unconvinced.

Xu Xiangyang pouted, "Maybe the person serving the food thought I was handsome? But I'm straight, okay?"

Sigh, being handsome is also a problem.

Zhang Lianhe: ...

Although he doesn't understand what "normal orientation" means, his shameless and narcissistic remarks are truly speechless!

Xu Xiangyang picked up a piece of meat, put it in his mouth, chewed it twice, and then spat it out.

"Damn, why does it smell so earthy? It's so hard, both fishy and hard, ugh..." He spat it out in disgust, then took a sip of water to rinse his mouth.

Is this what you call pheasant? It tastes awful.

Looking at the meat on the ground, Zhang Lianhe felt a pang of heartache. "Secretary Xu, how could you be so wasteful? This is meat! Besides, isn't this how pheasant meat is always?"

While it's undeniable that pheasant meat is unpalatable, it's still meat! And it's not some unacceptable species; everyone wants to eat it.

Xu Xiangyang glanced at him. "Then you'll pick it up and eat it?"

I thought it tasted awful, so I spat it on the floor. I could have spat it on paper, but I had to sweep it up and throw it away.

Zhang Lianhe shook his head. Although he felt it was a pity, he couldn't eat things on the ground, especially since they were spat out by someone else.

If he accidentally drops it on the ground while picking it up, he might be able to pick it up and wash it.

Xu Xiangyang looked at the meat in the lunchbox and asked, "Do you want some? I don't want any."

If he didn't eat it, he would put it in his spatial storage and then take it back to Qian Wenqing to eat.

Anyway, he didn't touch any of those things, so they're not dirty, right?

Zhang Lianhe immediately nodded, "I'll eat it!"

These are much cleaner than the ones on the ground, why not eat them?

Xu Xiangyang handed him all the food from the lunchbox, saying, "You eat it, I'll eat something else."

After saying that, he rummaged through his suitcase and took out a flatbread and some seasonings.

"What is this?" Zhang Lianhe looked at him in confusion.

"It's similar to dried noodles, but it cooks faster." Xu Xiangyang took his thermos and made a packet of instant noodles.

Sure enough, this stuff tastes especially good when there's no food.

After finishing the meal, Zhang Lianhe, smelling the aroma of instant noodles, ate two bowls of rice and dishes in one sitting.

That's right, it's two rice bowls!

Xu Xiangyang gave him a lot, and he himself also gave so much.

I can usually eat this much, but it's hard to eat if the food doesn't taste good.

I ate all of Xu Xiangyang's instant noodles today.

By the end, he couldn't tell if the instant noodles smelled better or his own food smelled better.

After the meal, he took the initiative to wash Xu Xiangyang's lunchbox and even swept the floor for him.

Xu Xiangyang nodded in satisfaction and watched him leave.

He is indeed a promising talent!
