Chapter 325 - 324: Iâm a Key Employee!
After stating his position, Xie Xuzhi had completely run out of patience, rubbing his temples subconsciously: "Is there anything else?"
Xie Xuzhiâs clear displeasure was evident, and Xuan Chu could sense it. After a few seconds of silence, he shook his head and then stepped aside to make way.
Watching Xie Xuzhi walk away without hesitation, Xuan Chu sighed.
The stance of the Heavenly Destiny Guardian was starkly opposite to that of those executing the mission.
Especially since there could be countless lives involved in between, he was afraid he would never be able to convince the people from the Special Administration Bureau.
By the time midnight arrived, all members of the archaeological team had returned.
When the Murong Family learned that Xie Xuzhi was still around, they left with their people immediately, hinting a sense of "like kings avoiding each other."
After wrapping up the final matters, Yun Ran prepared to hitch a ride on Xie Xuzhiâs private jet.
Just as she had packed everything, the voice of Wuzi Changli suddenly entered Yun Ranâs ears.
"The ground beneath your feet holds several bottles, inscribed with the treasureâs information inside. If you have the ambition, the treasure is yours!"
Yun Ran paused in her steps, her gaze fixed directly toward the direction of the hill she had visited earlier.
While Wan Ji was helping move stuff, he noticed Yun Ran suddenly stop and carefully asked, "Lady Yun, did you forget something?"
"Itâs nothing, you go ahead and move the stuff onto the plane."
Having followed Yun Ran down to the tomb equipped by Wuzi Changli, Wan Ji had seen and heard certain things not meant for him.
Plus, with his keen perception, he had been specially approved to work mundane tasks at the Special Administration Bureau; this was somewhat a promotion for him.
At this moment, he completely regarded Yun Ran as his benefactor, naturally doing whatever Yun Ran asked.
Doctor Yu and his team were waiting already. Although they were very reluctant to see Yun Ran leave, they knew that someone as capable as her couldnât possibly stay here applying great talents to small ends.
The two Little Papermen left behind by Yun Ran also reluctantly flew forward, rubbing Yun Ranâs hand.
Yun Ran glanced at Doctor Yu, who instantly understood and approached quietly, whispering, "If thereâs anything you need me to handle, just say the word. If itâs doable, Iâll make sure it gets done!"
After speaking, Doctor Yuâs gaze discreetly lingered on Xie Xuzhi in the distance.
He had never met Xie Xuzhi, but as someone who had lived for decades, he had good judgment and could tell Yun Ran was working for Xie Xuzhi.
With the Murong Family having been present earlier, and now the Xie Family was here too.
Although he wouldnât openly take sides, given that Yun Ran was affiliated with the Xie Family, he naturally leaned a bit towards them.
As long as the demands from the Xie Family werenât too unreasonable, he could manage them.
Yun Ran burst into laughter, probably not expecting herself to hold such significant weight in Doctor Yuâs eyes.
"Youâre overthinking it. The struggles of those big shots have nothing to do with us. Iâm just a worker; I donât need to worry about the bossâs issues."
This clearly told Doctor Yu to stick to his own principlesâshe was no lobbyist.
Although Doctor Yu hadnât been with Yun Ran for long, he found her very agreeable, even entertaining the thought of naming her as his successor.
Now that Yun Ran had explicitly assured she wouldnât put him in a difficult position, Doctor Yuâs gaze towards her grew even more approving.
"I just wanted to tell you, the items youâve dug up this time, especially the ones in the bottles, are best not passed through othersâ hands."
Doctor Yuâs forehead furrowed immediately, becoming a rather stubborn old man when it came to these ancient artifacts.
"Did someone say something?"
Yun Ran shook her head: "No, there should be clues about the treasure inside the bottles. I suspect the Murong Family came here for them."
Doctor Yuâs trust in Yun Ran had reached its peak, with not the slightest doubt about her words.
"No wonder, that would make sense of the previous events. Rest assured, Iâll handle this situation properly."
Yun Ran wouldnât instruct Doctor Yu on what to do; she merely gave him a heads-up to prevent being plotted against.
What he chose to do next was up to him.
After speaking, Yun Ran headed toward the plane.
Doctor Yu watched Yun Ran and her group board the plane, watched the aircraft take off, and watched it slowly shrink in the distance until it was out of sight; still, he stood there.
A student, puzzled, walked up and draped his coat over Doctor Yu: "Teacher, itâs chilly at night; you should head back."
Doctor Yu turned and saw the student who misunderstood the emotional atmosphere, breaking the faint melancholy of their departure.
"I was just about to compose a poem, and you interrupted me!"
Student: ...
No wonder some used to say the teacher had a touch of melancholic eleganceâit was true.
Meanwhile, on the plane, Yun Ran began raiding Xie Xuzhiâs private fridge, taking out plenty of food, acting as if she was at her own house.
Xie Xuzhi, holding some documents, paid no attention to Yun Ran rustling around eating like a mouse beside him.
Ginsengfruit was sitting on the couch, continuing the game he was playing earlier.
Xie Xuzhiâs bodyguard, though expressionless, had a look of shock almost spilling from his eyes.
Is this the same boss who is usually so strict about the work environment? Especially with Yun Ran eating chips, the crackling sound!!!
After wrapping up the last bit of business, Xie Xuzhi glanced at Yun Ran who clearly didnât know the meaning of politeness.
He considerately pushed the snack cabinet prepared for her in front of Yun Ran.
"These were prepared for you, eat slowly, Iâm going to rest for a while."
After saying this, he turned and headed back to his room.
Leaving Yun Ran looking somewhat puzzled at the closed door, then at the snack cabinet taller than her.
Is the service really this good now? The boss even thoughtfully prepared snacks!
Ginsengfruit also looked over, his eyes lighting up when he saw the snack cabinet.
He quickly dropped the game he hadnât finished for a long time and ran over excitedly.
"Are all these for us to eat?"
Yun Ran, no longer surprised, adopted a composed demeanor of hiding her capabilities: "Of course, donât you know who your host is?
I am a key business pillar. Do you know what that means? Thatâs someone the boss would desperately want to keep by any means. These are all my benefits, eat as you like!"
Xie Xuzhiâs clear displeasure was evident, and Xuan Chu could sense it. After a few seconds of silence, he shook his head and then stepped aside to make way.
Watching Xie Xuzhi walk away without hesitation, Xuan Chu sighed.
