Chapter 453 You're so useless!
"boom!"
Li Erniu was sent flying again. This time, he landed not on a wall or in an open space, but in the direction of Zhou Yichen and Liu Yunlong.
Zhou Yichen raised an eyebrow. Without the girl saying anything, he knew her intention. He quickly changed his position, seemingly to avoid her, but in reality, he "unfortunately" blocked Liu Yunlong's retreat route.
Liu Yunlong glared at Zhou Yichen, who had moved away from him, with eyes wide open, before being knocked to the ground by a thud amidst gasps of alarm.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Team Leader Liu, are you alright?"
Zhou Yichen asked the other person absentmindedly, showing no intention of helping him pull Li Erniu up.
Of course, with so many onlookers, he could get help if he didn't move.
When everyone hurriedly pulled Li Erniu away, Liu Yunlong suddenly inhaled a large amount of air, causing a dull pain in his chest. He couldn't help but wonder if he had broken his ribs.
His face could no longer maintain even the most basic composure; it was so gloomy it could drip water. However, he couldn't speak; the moment he opened his mouth, he couldn't help but cough.
"Cough cough cough..."
"I'm so sorry, team leader, it was just an accident, a complete accident."
Li Erniu lowered his head and apologized repeatedly, looking like a child who had done something wrong.
Others also advised, "Yes, Team Leader Liu, Erniu didn't do it on purpose. He's your team member, you should know him. He just got too absorbed in his discussion with Comrade Chu."
Chu Xin also walked over, a half-smile on her face, and said:
"It was indeed my and Li Erniu's fault. It's all his fault for playing tricks on me earlier. I'm a petty person, and I always seek revenge. I did go too far. I just didn't expect to hurt Team Leader Liu. I don't know if you're just unlucky or you deserved it..."
Liu Yunlong's face darkened completely, and those who had been trying to persuade him just moments before fell silent. This girl is truly brave.
"Hey, I was just saying, Team Leader Liu, you didn't take it seriously, did you?"
Chu Xin pretended not to notice the various looks from the others, and just smiled at Liu Yunlong, wondering what kind of nonsense he could come up with.
You little punk, you can compete openly all you want, but if you try anything behind my back, I'll make you pay!
"Cough cough, what's wrong?!"
Liu Yunlong couldn't bring himself to say "How could that be? I didn't take it seriously," and just as he was about to suffer even more from holding it in, Old Ge's voice came over.
Those onlookers who had nothing to do with the matter all disappeared like a gust of wind, leaving only Zhou Yichen, Liu Yunlong, Chu Xin, Li Erniu, and Chu Yunting, who seemed to have no sense of shame.
Old Ge walked slowly closer. Liu Yunlong felt wronged and wanted to complain, but when he saw Li Erniu, he pursed his lips again. He had something on Li Erniu, and saying more would only make things worse.
"Come with me! What kind of behavior is it to fight in public like this?!"
Old Ge didn't want to listen to them at the moment; he just felt a headache coming on.
Liu Yunlong was well aware of the knot in his heart, and he also understood why Liu was so eager to make a name for himself.
Having served in the military for almost ten years, and in the Special Branch for nearly seven or eight years, I'm almost forty and still stuck in the position of squad leader.
If he were still young, he might still have a chance to give it his all, but he's at this awkward age.
To put it bluntly, we're all men, and Old Ge is an experienced man. At his age, he still has the energy for clerical work, but when it comes to tasks that require fieldwork, he's already struggling, let alone the long journeys and working day and night.
Compared to Zhou Yichen, Liu Yunlong has no advantage whatsoever.
All of Mr. Ge's work arrangements were based on considerations of the importance of the cases, and were not influenced by any personal factors.
As a mission taker, one must serve the case unconditionally, but unfortunately Liu Yunlong didn't understand this.
The group followed him into the conference room. Old Ge sat down first, and before he could instruct the others to sit down, Chu Xin had already naturally pulled out a chair and sat down.
Old Ge: ...
What's causing this throbbing sensation in my temples? Is it going to cause a blood vessel to burst?
Looking again at the men standing there, even Zhou Yichen, her capable henchman, became extremely displeased.
The old man, who was quite old, couldn't help but grind his teeth inwardly. "Look at how spoiled I've become!"
"What are you still standing there for? Are you comparing who's taller? What's the use of just being tall if you don't have a brain!"
After being scolded, the men lowered their heads and found seats.
Seeing that Chu Xin was getting too cocky, Old Ge patted her on the shoulder again.
"And you, why can't you talk things out instead of resorting to violence?!"
Chu Xin will definitely correct her mistakes, but no one should expect her to admit to anything that isn't her fault.
"You're mistaken. I didn't act without reason. I wouldn't have done it if Comrade Li Erniu hadn't repeatedly asked me to!"
Of course it's fake. Since she knows someone is plotting against her, how could she not retaliate?
Even if it wasn't possible at the time, she would find a time to beat them up, and she would beat them up together.
We guarantee that no one will be left behind.
Upon hearing this, Old Ge looked at Li Erniu in surprise. What was wrong with this silly boy that he had to go against Chu Xin?
Li Erniu blushed again under their gaze, his head almost disappearing off the table.
Liu Yunlong's face was stiff. How wonderful! Not only did he give someone a handle to use against him, but he also got beaten up and dragged along with him.
Seeing that no one spoke, Chu Yunting raised his hand high, "I can testify!"
"Why are you everywhere?!"
Old Ge grabbed a book from the table and threw it at him. "We're about to carry out a mission, and you still have time to spare? Go out and find the rest of the second group to gather information!"
Chu Yunting took the book with one hand, grinning shamelessly, "Don't be angry, boss, don't be angry, I'll leave, okay?"
Then he quickly disappeared into the conference room.
He stopped laughing as soon as he closed the door. He was quick-witted; since Old Master Ge had already lost his temper with him, he probably wouldn't say anything more about Chu Xin.
If that's not enough, there's always Zhou Yichen, who certainly won't let his sister suffer.
Liu Yunlong is a rascal who likes to play the victim out of seniority; we've been on guard against him for a while.
In the conference room.
After scolding Chu Yunting, Old Ge stopped mentioning Chu Xin and only criticized Zhou Yichen, saying things like he was lax in his management, had learned to fool his superiors, and even wrote reports for his subordinates.
In short, he criticized Zhou Yichen's unusual behavior after Chu Xin joined the company.
Regardless of whether Liu Yunlong felt good about himself after using this tactic of his old leader, Chu Xin was quite amused by Zhou Yichen's silent and downcast expression.
She didn't hide her expression at all, making Old Ge feel as if he was deliberately amusing her.
He frowned wearily, looking at Zhou Yichen as if he were King You of Zhou playing with the feudal lords by lighting the beacon fires – what a spineless man!
"Go, go, take this girl and get out of here right now. Go investigate the case immediately, and don't let me see you guys in the Special Branch again in the next few days!"
Zhou Yichen immediately saluted straight, "Yes, sir!"
Chu Xin also raised her hand, "Yes!"
"let's go!"
Frustrated, Old Ge waved his hand and said to Li Erniu, "You come along too!"
After the meeting room door closed again, he looked at Liu Yunlong, whose complexion had improved considerably, and began another round of earnest deception.
"Yunlong..."
