Courtyard House: My Wife is Xu Huizhen

Page 609

The aroma of tea instantly filled the room, making one feel refreshed and relaxed. While brewing the tea, He Yuzhu also took some tea leaves from the tea canister next to him, carefully wrapped them up, and put them into his pocket without hesitation.

At this moment, the top leader couldn't help but laugh and joke:

"Hey, you know, every time you come to my place, you always manage to steal some of my tea leaves, don't you?"

He Yuzhu chuckled and replied, "Look at what you're saying! I'm just an ordinary commoner now, and I don't get many opportunities to drink good tea. It's only here that I'm so lucky!"

Indeed, under normal circumstances, ordinary people simply cannot obtain tea coupons. These precious tea coupons are only issued to a select group of leading cadres according to different ranks.

Therefore, people with high positions and great power like high-ranking leaders naturally have access to high-quality tea at home, while such fine products are hard to find in other ordinary places.

Just as the two were chatting, the high-ranking leader suddenly stopped smiling, his expression gradually turning serious. He stared intently at He Yuzhu and slowly asked:

"I heard you're a martial arts expert?"

He Yuzhu was slightly taken aback, but quickly regained his composure and answered frankly, "Um... I guess I could be considered one."

He Yuzhu is now at the Core Formation Realm, and has been there for quite some time. Although there is no possibility of him breaking through in the short term, he can certainly be considered a master.

"The higher-ups talked to me today about your situation."

The senior leader said, "There are some problems in Hong Kong that require your help. He asked me to ask you if you could go there."

"You want me to go to Hong Kong? I'm just an ordinary citizen!"

Upon hearing what the senior leader said, He Yuzhu couldn't help but complain immediately.

"You're just an ordinary citizen, how can you blame others?" the high-ranking leader retorted directly.

He Yuzhu chuckled and said, "I didn't blame anyone."

"Given your condition, if you were still in someone else's shoes, you would have been in jail by now. You're already lucky to be able to go to work freely. What more do you want?"

"I didn't intend to do anything."

"The situation in Hong Kong this time is like this: there is a group of ruthless bandits from Southeast Asia who are very unfriendly to our comrades. We have lost many of our comrades who were protecting them, so we need someone to go and eliminate the threat."

"So you can only think of me?"

The senior leader nodded: "Whether you go or not, it's considered a vacation for you."

"Yes, of course I want to go. I've never been to Hong Kong before."

He Yuzhu recently wanted to take leave to go to Hong Kong.

I didn't expect this to come to me so readily; it seems I don't even need to ask for leave.

The leader then smiled and said, "I won't use you for nothing. I can give you some information about the sealed-off martial arts training materials."

Then the senior leader opened the drawer, took out a thick file folder, and handed it to He Yuzhu.

"Give us benefits first?"

"Are you afraid you won't go?"

"That makes sense. So when are we going?"

"I'll give you three days to settle things at home before you set off."

Only after the senior leader saw that he had agreed did he bring up the matter of going to Hong Kong.

There's a newspaper in Hong Kong, one of our own, that's recently been threatened. Some martial arts practitioners have launched attacks against them, injuring a lot of their security detail.

There was an urgent need for someone to solve the problem, and the higher-ups thought of He Yuzhu, a high-level combatant.

Then they found a high-ranking leader to find out the situation and asked him to act as an intermediary to talk to He Yuzhu about this matter.

"If you can resolve this matter satisfactorily, the issue of your cadre status will also be resolved in due course."

"You mean if I solve the problem, I can become an official?"

"Yes, I trust you to handle the vehicle inspection."

"What about Old Wang?"

"He's good at administration, but not at research and development."

"You built the vehicle factory from scratch. If it were in his hands, it would still just be a vehicle factory. But if it were in your hands, don't tell me you only know how to research Jeeps, right?"

What could He Yuzhu say? At the time, he was just bored and wanted to improve the lives of his neighbors and create some jobs.

They then established several factories, eventually producing machine tools and Jeeps.

However, after Jiang Hanyang's incident, he lost his passion for researching new mechanical equipment.

So he hasn't come up with anything new since then.

The old leader said earnestly, "I know you have grievances, but what you did was really wrong. Who has so many wives? What do you think the higher-ups will think in this situation?"

"I didn't say anything. I didn't complain when I was demoted to an ordinary position."

"Alright, that's all I wanted to say. Anyway, if you can handle this matter satisfactorily, I'll still let you continue as a leader."

The leaders above considered rewarding He Yuzhu for a long time.

Whether it's money or goods, it means nothing to He Yuzhu.

Therefore, the only recourse is to revoke his previous hidden punishment and restore his official status.

"It's as if I really want to be a leader, but it doesn't matter whether I am or not."

After He Yuzhu enters the Core Formation stage, his theoretical lifespan can reach two to three hundred years.

He was extremely confident that he could enter the Gang Realm within this timeframe.

You should know that once you enter the Gang Realm, you become a terrestrial immortal, and living for hundreds of years is not a problem.

Therefore, whether or not he can become a cadre in the short term is meaningless to him.

He always wanted to wait until the 80s, when he would be old but still young, and that would be the time for him to really show his skills.

However, since his superiors need his help now, he can make the trip.

Thinking of the two people he had been keeping locked up, He Yuzhu said, "How can I get there? I need to bring two more people with me."

"You're taking people with you? Who?"

"Both thugs were highly skilled in martial arts, capable of scaling walls and leaping across rooftops, each one able to take on a hundred men."

Old Man Du has already reached the Transcendent Realm, and Du Weixiang is already at the peak of the Dark Realm. After so much time, we can enter the Transcendent Realm at any time.

"Okay, I'll prepare three train tickets for you then."

He Yuzhu couldn't keep the two of them locked up forever. Since there was a chance to go to Hong Kong, he would take them with him. Most importantly, he needed to find out what exactly they were hiding.

After leaving the high-ranking leader's house and returning home, he began to look at the documents.

Xu Huizhen brewed a cup of tea and brought it over, asking, "When did you start looking at documents again?"

"I was just about to tell you, I'm going to Hong Kong on a business trip in a couple of days."

"Going to Hong Kong? Aren't you an ordinary citizen now? A security officer, you still want to go to Hong Kong?"

He Yuzhu put down the documents, reached out and hugged Xu Huizhen, and smiled:

"That's because your man is so capable; he lets me handle things they can't."

"How long will it take you to get there?"

Chapter 418 Departure for Hong Kong

He Yuzhu possessed unparalleled martial arts skills, making him virtually indestructible, impervious to blades and spears, and even bullets could hardly harm him. Therefore, he had little worry about this trip.

He calmly said, "Give me three days to prepare, and then I'll set off for my destination. However, it's still uncertain how long this trip will last."

Upon hearing this, Xu Huizhen urged, "If that's the case, what are you dawdling about here for?"

He Yuzhu gently shook his head and replied, "Don't rush! After all, there are still some things that need to be taken care of properly."

That's right, there are only three days left now, and the most urgent thing is to soothe my wife's anxious heart.

As for those related documents, it's not too late to review them carefully after boarding the train.

Thinking this, he strode forward, picked Xu Huizhen up by the waist, and strode into the bedroom, turning off the light without hesitation.

The next morning, sunlight streamed into the room through the window. He Yuzhu got up early, washed up, and headed straight for the vehicle factory.

Upon arriving at the factory, he first sought out Factory Director Wang. Director Wang greeted him warmly and said:

"I've already heard from the higher-ups that you're about to head to Hong Kong, and that this trip is expected to take one or two months."

He Yuzhu nodded slightly in agreement: "That's true, Director Wang. This matter is quite thorny, and it won't be easy to resolve it properly. It's really hard to predict how long it will take."

Factory Director Wang patted him on the shoulder and comforted him, saying, "I understand the difficulties, but I believe that with your abilities, you will definitely be able to complete the task successfully. Here, I sincerely wish you a safe journey!"

After saying goodbye to Director Wang, He Yuzhu rushed to the workshop and the technical department to explain work matters in detail to his colleagues there.

Once everything was arranged, he left the vehicle factory with peace of mind and drove towards the villa...

After a period of self-adjustment and healing, Yan Yingxue finally succeeded in getting rid of the torment of sadness.

At that moment, she was chatting and laughing with Du Weixiang, the atmosphere relaxed and pleasant.

When she caught sight of He Yuzhu walking towards her, a joyful smile instantly bloomed on her face, but at the same time, a faint blush crept onto her cheeks.

She poured Yu Zhu a glass of water with a slightly reserved air, then, as if suddenly remembering something, she hurriedly turned and went into her room.
