Chapter 616: Chapter 615, Xu Wendong Explodes in Fury

Chen Guoan’s rank was definitely not low.

Across the entire province, he was indeed a rare presence.

After all, in ancient times, a vice-provincial-level official would be considered a high-ranking local authority.

To put it bluntly,

there was no one in the entire province he couldn’t meet. As long as he wanted to meet them, they would appear immediately.

But there were exceptions to everything.

In Dongyue Province, there was indeed one person he couldn’t meet, even if he wanted to.

Although he had once wanted to visit that war god, he was turned away outside the door.

It happened several times like this.

Even now,

even seeing Elder Fang being helped out of the car,

even when he was so close at hand,

yet Chen Guoan’s heart remained nervous, with a sense of being so near yet so far away.

That feeling truly made one experience bone-chilling despair!

So much so that

he sat alone in the courtyard, daydreaming for several hours.

Until a familiar figure, carrying wine and dishes, crossed the guards and entered, did he come back to himself.

His eyes were full of shock.

"Is that Xu Wendong?"

"No, no, no!"

"Even if he wants to visit Elder Fang, the guards at the door wouldn’t let him in. There’s no way he could get near Elder Fang."

While he was still in shock,

a familiar voice came from the next door.

But it was angry cursing.

"Old man, haven’t I told you not to smoke?"

"Why don’t you listen to me?"

"Are you tired of living?"

Boom!

Chen Guoan’s scalp tingled.

He could be sure it was Xu Wendong next door.

However,

he really couldn’t believe it.

Xu Wendong dared to shout at Elder Fang and even call him an old man...

As for the guards at the door, they acted as if they hadn’t heard a thing.

This was quite unreasonable.

Unless...

Xu Wendong and Elder Fang’s relationship was exceptionally special,

so special that the guards didn’t dare to intervene in their quarrel.

At this moment, a conciliatory voice came from next door, "Why are you so angry!"

"Everyone at home restricts me from smoking, now that I’m living in Haicheng for a while, can you just pretend you didn’t see anything?"

"And with your medical skills so strong, what if I smoke a few cigarettes, could Lord Yan really take my life from your hands?"

"Don’t be mad, don’t be mad!"

Xu Wendong was genuinely angry this time.

He huffed in displeasure, "I’ve told you before, you can occasionally drink a little, but you can’t smoke. Smoking at your age will cause serious damage to your lungs!"

Elder Fang chuckled, "At my age, having a little hobby occasionally is no big deal, right? Don’t you young people have a saying, life is short, so enjoy it while you can!"

"I’m enjoying life by smoking!"

Xu Wendong gave him a sidelong glance, "Try to smoke less in the future." Saying this, he handed the wine and dishes to Elder Fang’s personal servant.

Elder Fang said to the servant, "Xiao Wu, get us a table; the two of us will eat outside."

"Okay."

The servant, Auntie Wu, agreed and called a guard to bring a table out to the courtyard.

Although spring had just begun,

the sun was shining brightly with no wind at all.

Eating outdoors was quite pleasant.

Xu Wendong and Elder Fang sat before the Eight Immortals table with four dishes on the table and two bottles of Haicheng Special Brew.

Though just costing thirty yuan per bottle, it was a famous local liquor in Haicheng,

also the most common liquor found on many Haicheng citizens’ dining tables.

Elder Fang took a small sip and showed a satisfied expression, then picked some food while chatting, "You’ve been in Haicheng for several days, and there’s been no progress in work?"

Xu Wendong pursed his lips, "I’m not a god; how could I investigate everything clearly in such a short time?"

"True!" Elder Fang sighed, "I once led troops here, hoping to find that reinforced enemy company, but to no avail."

"Moreover, the country has been investigating this matter for years, but there has been no news or clues."

Xu Wendong poured Elder Fang a glass of wine, "As long as they’re ghosts, they’ll fear the sunlight."

"If those people still exist, they’ll definitely show their weaknesses."

"Don’t worry about it anymore, just enjoy life now!"

Elder Fang laughed, "Come, come, let’s not talk about these things, let’s drink!"

------

Chen Guoan sat in the courtyard all along.

At this moment,

he felt extremely conflicted and tangled.

He hesitated whether to visit Elder Fang now.

If he went at this moment, on behalf of Xu Wendong, Elder Fang might see him.

But...

showing up uninvited while others are drinking, he felt it was very impolite.

After hesitating for a moment,

a hint of decisiveness flashed in his eyes.

Even if it was impolite, he needed to seize the opportunity.

After all, if he missed this opportunity, he would have no hope of turning things around!

He asked his secretary to bring some local specialties from home and two bottles of cheap melon wine, then wheeled himself next door.

But he was stopped by the guards at the door.

This result was not unexpected for Chen Guoan; he accompanied his smile and said, "Brothers, I live in the yard next door, and hearing there are new neighbors here, I came over specially to visit. Please help me inform them!"

Before the two guards could speak,

Xu Wendong stood up, laughed, and said, "Oh, it’s Uncle Chen! Come in, come in!" Then he went up and pushed Chen Guoan into the courtyard.

Chen Guoan’s appearance was within his expectations.

No.

To be precise,

he had arranged for Elder Fang to come to Haicheng just for today.

They were all part of Xu Wendong’s plan.

Because only with Chen Guoan reinstated could the waters in Haicheng truly be muddied.

Only then could he fish in troubled waters.

"Are you recovering here as well?" Elder Fang showed a kind smile. It was his first time meeting Chen Guoan, but he wasn’t unfamiliar with him.

Chen Guoan nervously replied, "Elder Fang, I have been living here for several years."

Elder Fang asked with concern, "How’s your condition?"

Chen Guoan quickly said, "Thanks to Doctor Xu’s treatment, I’ve recovered a lot."

Elder Fang beamed with pride, "My brother’s medical skills are comparable to Hua Tuo and Bian Que’s. As long as you have a breath left, not even Yama can take you away."

Chen Guoan’s heart trembled.

He hadn’t expected Xu Wendong and Elder Fang to consider each other brothers.

Without thinking much, he hurriedly said, "Doctor Xu’s skills are truly miraculous. With his help, I surely can defeat the illness."

Elder Fang nodded slightly, and said earnestly, "Take your time to recover. Once you’re better, it’s time for you to return to preside over your work!"

"After all, the country and people need you!" Saying this, he glanced at Xu Wendong with a meaningful smile.

As if to say, is my answer satisfactory to you?
