Director Zhang saw Xia Zhining with red eyes from afar and couldn't help but frown: "What kind of trouble can a little girl cause?"
"Could it be that someone from your demolition company is bullying them?"
Li Wenjie's voice suddenly rose an octave: "How dare I lie to you!"
"She's just trying to cause trouble! Have you ever seen anyone bring their pet to work?"
"I am determined to teach her how to communicate with the homeowner and what matters to pay attention to."
He immediately took out the bill and diagnosis report from the hospital for washing his eyes, and said, "She's dead!"
"If you think I'm nagging, just ask her to bring that white weasel to piss me! Look, it even landed me in the hospital!"
At this time, Li Wenjie's younger brothers also came over to help:
"Director Zhang, we can testify! This guy has been here for quite some time and hasn't even knocked on the door!"
"She brought a cat and lost it, and spent the whole afternoon looking for it!"
"That's right. She even insisted that we help her find the cat. This is really a waste of time!"
Li Wenjie didn't forget to add at the end, putting on a look of deep sorrow: "Director Zhang, let me say this, sending such an unprofessional person here will only delay the progress of the demolition!"
Director Zhang looked at Li Wenjie and his employees with some suspicion on his face.
Commander Song looked at the young man and thought he would never do such a thing, right?
And I heard that this young man can communicate with small animals. He is some kind of animal language communicator.
If a cat is lost, it should be found quickly.
After all, there are many stray cats in this demolition site. Isn't "looking for cats" a way to find out the situation?
Director Zhang pondered for a moment and did not express his opinion directly. Instead, he quietly walked to Xia Zhining, pulled her aside and asked about the situation in a low voice.
He remembered that Commander Song had said that this young man could communicate with small animals, and he couldn't help but feel excited.
Maybe she could send a kitten to sneak into the stubborn household's house as an undercover agent?
Director Zhang lowered his voice and asked:
"Xiao Xia, have you heard the landlord's true thoughts? How much money do they want before they're willing to give in?"
Xia Zhining shook her head.
"Then... have you ever negotiated with the owner? Even just a few words?"
Xia Zhining still shook her head.
Director Zhang continued to ask unwillingly:
"At least you should know why they don't want to move, right? Do they think the compensation is too little? Or do they have other demands?"
Xia Zhining still shook her head.
"Then you should know how many people are in this household? Are there many elderly people and children? You should have this basic information, right?"
Seeing that Xia Zhining was still shaking her head, Director Zhang's expression gradually darkened, and the expectation in his eyes was gradually replaced by disappointment.
Li Wenjie and his younger brothers were gloating over this.
"Director Zhang, look! She's just messing around!"
"Just fire her immediately. Keeping her here is only delaying the construction schedule!"
"That's right, he's just causing trouble every day. It's better to change him sooner rather than later!"
Li Wenjie even added fuel to the fire: "Director Zhang, we can't afford to delay the construction progress. Every day of delay costs money!"
Director Zhang sighed and said gently to Xia Zhining, "Little girl, I'll have the workers on the construction site keep an eye out for you. Please send me a copy of the photo. It's getting dark, and it's not safe for a little girl like you to stay here. Go home first."
Li Wenjie immediately interrupted in a high-pitched voice: "Did you hear that? Director Zhang told you to get out of here! Don't get in the way here!" The younger brothers behind him also laughed, looking like they were watching a show.
Xia Zhining's phone rang at the perfect moment. She glanced down at the screen, completely ignoring Li Wenjie's arrogance.
"Don't be so harsh on young people. They've just entered society and have little experience. It's normal for them to fail once."
Director Zhang glanced at Li Wenjie disapprovingly and asked, "What about you? What progress have you made in the negotiations today?"
Li Wenjie and his gang, who were so arrogant just now, suddenly became dispirited, shrinking their necks and lowering their heads.
Li Wenjie stammered, "Director Zhang, you saw it too..."
He put all the blame on Xia Zhining: "This Xia Zhining messed up the whole day! I wasted most of the day in the hospital..."
Director Zhang frowned and said, "Don't make excuses."
"I'm just asking when the deal can be concluded? When can the demolition be completed? We're not paying you to eat for free."
Just when Li Wenjie hesitated and couldn't answer.
Xia Zhining, who was standing beside him, suddenly raised her head with a calm smile on her face: "Let's not talk about it anymore, Director Zhang."
Director Zhang glanced sideways in confusion, and Li Wenjie frowned: "What are you, a little girl, butting in on the adults?"
At this moment, Xia Zhining said clearly and firmly, word by word:
"It can be demolished tonight!"
Director Zhang was stunned: "What?"
Li Wenjie even sneered out loud: "Xia Zhining, what are you bragging about? Do you really think you are a god?"
Just then——
The road in the distance behind Xia Zhining was suddenly illuminated by several dazzling car lights, and then the loud sound of sirens broke the silence of the dusk!
Under the shocked gaze of the crowd, six police cars came roaring and parked neatly behind Xia Zhining.
The red and blue warning lights enveloped her slender figure in a majestic halo.
Director Zhang was completely stunned, his glasses nearly sliding down. "Why are the police here? What's going on?"
Li Wenjie and his gang of followers were also dumbfounded. They stammered, "Are you kidding me? A cat is lost...a cat is lost. Do you think it's necessary to call the police and mobilize so many officers to look for it?!"
The next moment, the door of the leading police car opened.
Ji Shuyun stepped out of the driver's seat swiftly.
He had thick, sharp eyebrows, and a pair of sharp, upturned phoenix eyes. His gaze swept across the audience like a hawk.
What is even more eye-catching is that he holds the leash tightly in his left hand, at the end of which is a muscular German Shepherd police dog with shiny fur.
The police dog's eyes were sharp, his ears were erect, and his body was tense like a fully drawn bow, ready to attack at any time.
The man and the dog standing there instantly calmed the commotion in the entire audience.
