Chapter 301 The Waiting That Never Wasted

Lin Suixuan sent Zhao Yuxi to Yuqing City. After that, she returned to the northern city and continued to observe the ancient man who was about to enter the third level.

Zhao Yuxi found a supermarket in the city and walked around for a while, buying a large box of ice cream and two spoons. She also sent the address of the house to Xie Chenghong and asked him to move in as soon as possible.

Gu Tingzhu sent Zhao Yuxi to the station in the morning, and he didn't sleep after returning home. Although he slept late yesterday and his strength has not recovered yet, he knows that Zhao Yuxi is going to do something very important, and he can't be idle anymore. In his jurisdiction, there is also a city with a population of more than 10 million, Jujiang City. He took two sets of clothes and set off, boarding the high-speed train to Jujiang City.

When Zhao Yuxi returned home, the house was empty, with no one there.

She walked into the bedroom and saw Gu Tingzhou had made the bed.

In the past seven days, she had seen Gu Tingzhou make his bed. He made the bed rather casually, and it was obvious at a glance that he was just trying to get by. He must have made the bed with the idea that "I have to sleep at night anyway, so what's the point of making it so neatly?"

However, the quilt this time was particularly tidy, which meant that Gu Tingzhou would not be back in the near future.

Zhao Yuxi sat on the bed and slowly finished her ice cream.

She was not worried about Gu Tingzhu's safety. It was almost impossible for an ancient being who was about to reach the fourth level to be in danger.

It was a good thing that he was willing to go out for a walk. The mountains and rivers were vast, and the world was vast. While the domain radius was not large enough to cover this area, it was not bad to walk from the north to the south, from the west to the east, step by step, and appreciate the world's big and small scenery with your own eyes.

Zhao Yuxi smoothed the quilt while calling Gu Tingzhou: "I'm back. Where are you? I'll come find you."

She came back just after she left? I should have waited a while before leaving. How would she feel if she didn't see me when she got home?
"I'm on the bus to Jujiang City. Do you need me to return immediately?"

Jujiang City? That's Gu Tingzhou's "base camp". But why did he go to the base camp? To meet his assistant? But he didn't bring his seal. Although the assistant recognized him, without the seal, he couldn't issue a decree, and what he could do was relatively limited. In this case, for both public and private reasons, I should go to Jujiang City and hand over the seal to him.

"No need. You go first, I'll be there later, remember to pick me up."

"it is good."

Zhao Yuxi hung up the phone, bought a ticket and rushed to Jujiang City immediately. She weighed the seal in her hand and decided to meet Gu Tingzhou's nine assistants after arriving in the city to check how they were doing recently.

As soon as Gu Tingzhou stood still after getting off the car, Chen Qingke greeted him warmly: "Dean, you are here. I have prepared a temporary residence for you. Would you like to go there immediately?"

"No, I have to go to the city branch to see Yao Yuanzao first." Gu Tingzhu's original intention of coming to Jujiang City was not to check on the assistant's work, but he thought that since he was already here, he might as well take a look. After checking on the assistant's work, he would go to the station to pick up Zhao Yuxi, and then go to the temporary residence.

"Should we notify Yao Yuanzao in advance and let him..."

"No need. Wouldn't a surprise inspection be more interesting? I know where the branch is. I'll take you there."

Gu Tingzhou and his secretary Chen Qingke suddenly arrived at the branch. At that time, Yao Yuanzao was not in the office.

"Now you need to notify him. If he is not working, ask him to come to the office immediately. If he is working, ask him to send me a message immediately."

The secretary who carried the dean's orders once had more power than the dean's assistant.

Yao Yuanzao was on vacation at this time. Seven days of vacation was not long enough for him, so he wanted to extend it by one more day, including the next weekend, so that he would get a vacation of ten days. However, he would also take time to handle work during vacation, but his efficiency was not as high and the handling was not as timely. The secretary's call was a special case, and he would answer it as soon as possible when he encountered such a call. "Where are you? Come back quickly, the dean is here."

Yao Yuanzao was shocked. He was the assistant of Dean Gu Tingzhou, but he had never met Gu Tingzhou. He had only seen Gu Tingzhou's seal. At that time, Dean Zhao Yuxi came to hand over the work to him with the seal. In the whole month of September, he only met Zhao Yuxi twice. It was precisely because the two deans ignored him that he boldly thought of the dangerous idea of ​​extending the holiday by one day and put it into practice.

The person who called was Gu Tingzhou's secretary. It was not difficult to guess that the "dean" was Gu Tingzhou, but why did he come? What kind of person is Dean Gu Tingzhou? Is he easier to talk to than Zhao Yuxi, or harder to talk to? I think he should not be easy to talk to, after all, Gu Tingzhou only came once, and this time, he was not there. In the dean's mind, the probability that he was not there was 100%.

"Is it Dean Gu Tingzhou? Has he arrived in Jujiang City?"

Yao Yuanzao still had a glimmer of hope. If it was Zhao Yuxi instead of Gu Tingzhou who came, the chances of him not showing up would be reduced by half. Maybe Dean Zhao Yuxi would give him some leniency because of his previous hard work. In contrast, Gu Tingzhou had never seen him at work, so it would be extremely difficult to ask him to give him some leniency.

Chen Qingke was about to reply "yes", but the dean glared at him and he skipped the question.

"Where are you? The dean is waiting for you outside your office. Come back soon."

Yao Yuanzao originally wanted to hunt down the antique dealers, but once he said this, he would have to bring an illegal antique dealer with him when he returned, otherwise, the crime would be even more serious.

But where can I find an illegal medieval antique now? A recent antique will do, the difference between recent antique and medieval antique is not something that can be seen at once, as long as I can fool the dean first.

So, where can we find an illegal ancient? What crime can we charge him with? Will the webmasters cooperate with his performance? Even if they are willing to cooperate, can they complete the planning and performance within a few hours?
I'm afraid not.

"I'm out of town and can't come back in a short time. When I return to Jujiang City, I will personally find the dean to explain the problem. Please help me."

Gu Tingzhu snorted coldly, and Chen Qingke didn't say anything else and hung up the phone.

Yao Yuanzao knew that the person who snorted coldly was the dean of his branch. The secretary was also a Medievalist. If he didn't want others to hear his conversation with others, few people would be able to join in. The only one who could listen was the dean. Judging from the voice, it wasn't Zhao Yuxi.

After confirming the identity of the dean, Yao Yuanzao sighed repeatedly. Moreover, his conspiracy with the secretary was heard by Gu Tingzhou, which was even more troublesome. His mood for vacation was swept away, and he quickly bought a return ticket.

Gu Tingzhou turned the doorknob, but the wooden door didn't budge. "From his tone, he doesn't seem to be working. Did he take a leave? Never mind. You wouldn't know even if I asked you. He didn't need to ask you for leave. Open his office door. I want to see how much you have to help him so that he can get through this difficult time."

Chen Qingke didn't go looking for the key. He just lightly stroked the door with his finger, the lock broke, and the door opened.

Gu Tingzhou was somewhat helpless. This secretary was really good at doing things. He took the opportunity to open the door to show his anger and power, and also to show my anger and power. But it was not fair for the institute to pay for his anger and power.

"I didn't ask you to open the door this way. You were not following my orders by removing the door. Find out how much it would cost to replace it with a similar door, send me the price, and I'll pay for it."

"Dean, I took down the door, so I'll pay for it." Chen Qingke was not sure what the dean was thinking. If the dean was just joking with him, but he took the joke seriously, that would be terrible.

"If it weren't for me, you wouldn't come here to remove the door, so don't say so much. I'll pay, and you'll be responsible for looking up information, removing the door, and finding someone to install it."

The secretary then realized that the dean did not seem to be a very harsh person. How much did the broken door have to do with him? He did not issue an order to remove the door. He was the only one who made the mistake, but the dean had to pay for it.
