The next day.

Beijing headquarters.

After destroying Biyou Village and arresting all the people there including Ma Xianhong, they persuaded Chen Duo to give up her suicide plan and removed the poison from her body. The mission to Biyou Village also came to an end and everyone returned to the capital that night.

In a conference room.

As soon as they arrived, Du Heng and Gao Yuxuan were called by Director Zhao to report on their work. Lu Zhongren Fei and Dongbei Gao Lian were also there.

Oh. And there is Er Zhuang!

Du Heng's cell phone was quietly placed on the table. This girl never said hello when she moved in, and the room had almost become her home.

Talk about it.

This was his first time coming to the company headquarters, and also his first time formally meeting with Director Zhao. The previous video chat did not count, but now when he looked at him face to face, he was indeed like a big boss in the system, upright yet easy-going.

Director Zhao sat upright in the upper seat, looked around, and his eyes stopped on him. He jokingly said, "Xiao Heng, is it okay for me to call you that?"

Du Heng was secretly surprised. He couldn't understand why Director Zhao suddenly became polite. Was he trying to win him over?

He glanced at Ren Fei who was sitting next to him, and seeing that she remained silent and didn't give any instructions, he had no choice but to talk nonsense.

"How can that be possible? If you are willing, Mr. Zhao, you can do it, not only Xiao Heng, but also Xiao Du."

The words fell.

Sitting opposite them were Gao Lian and his daughter. The former had a strange expression on his face. He didn't expect Du Heng to be so bold and a little... Gao Yuxuan couldn't help laughing. She supported her chin with one hand and looked at him straight with her fox eyes.

Ren Feiton felt ashamed. It was because the person was from her land. She turned her head and stared at him coldly, full of warning.

Du Heng was really at a loss for words. He secretly thought that he felt more wronged than Dou E. Just now he wanted to act according to your mood, but there was no hint at all. Now you are talking nonsense and it’s like a warning to me.

Good man, the warning comes so late, and I'm still working on the postpositional statement here!

Director Zhao was stunned for a moment. This was the second time he heard someone speaking to him in this tone. The first time was also by Du Heng.

He shook his head in silence, reached out and tapped him, saying, "The incident in Biyou Village was successfully resolved this time, and you have made a great contribution."

Hearing this, Du Heng began to wonder, logically Ma Xianhong should have been rescued, so how could the issue be resolved smoothly?

Now he is hiding it and acting nonchalant, and even praising him. I can only say that he is a leader after all, and my eight-pack abs that can't hide the truth are no match for his belly that can hold a boat. I need more experience.

"Mr. Zhao, you are too kind. It was because you were in charge of the rear and gave proper command that we were able to complete the mission. As for whether I deserve credit or not, it's up to you to decide."

"Are you done yet? I asked you to come here to report, not to ask for credit or reward." Ren Fei interrupted directly, not daring to let him continue talking nonsense.

It's like a kite, it starts to fly away once you stop holding it in your hands.

When we recruited him, he was useful in every way. Unfortunately, he has a big mouth and I feel like sooner or later he will make me sick because of him.

Du Heng felt very aggrieved and was about to pretend to be pitiful and complain, but Gao Yuxuan beat him to it.

"How can you say that about someone? In this operation, Du Heng captured Ma Xianhong alive and saved Chen Duo. He was the first to do so. Doesn't he deserve praise?"

Ren Fei raised her eyelids and glanced over, wondering when this vixen had such a good relationship with Du Heng, and even defended him? She became angry and more unhappy.

"I take care of the people in Luzhong, what does it have to do with you?"

Upon hearing this, Du Heng realized that Ren Fei was angry. In order to avoid being held accountable later, he quickly winked at Gao Yuxuan, asking her to calm down.

But the only response he got was a slight blink of her fox eyes, as if to say, "Watch out, sister won't let you suffer any injustice."

Then Gao Yuxuan raised her headlights, which were even more attractive than Ren Fei's, and showed a provocative look, saying, "Why is it not a hindrance? Du Heng and I have been tracking down the four crazy people together. We have been through so many hardships. We have long been friends. His business is my business."

"You!" Ren Fei was choked and speechless. She glared at her fiercely and then turned her gaze to Du Heng with a questioning tone.

Before he left, she specifically reminded him to stay away from Gao Yuxuan to avoid being taken advantage of. Now, less than a week has passed, and their relationship is so deep that they are almost wearing the same pants.

Facing the death stare from his boss, Du Heng lowered his head, put his hands on the table, and pretended to sit upright.

The bloody lessons of his predecessors told him that when fighting between women, he should never try to intervene, and pretending to be dead is the best option.

Ren Fei was furious when she saw that he had diarrhea at the critical moment. She thought that after working so hard for him for so long, she was still not as good as a coquettish vixen?
If it weren't for the occasion, I would have to correct his mindset. It's impossible for him to eat my food and then put food from other people's bowls!

Gao Yuxuan, on the other hand, saw Du Heng pretending to be a punching bag, and suspicion flashed across her beautiful eyes, but she knew his true character. When facing people like Quan Xing and Ma Xianhong, he showed his domineering and decisive side, and even when he was with her, his true manly nature was sometimes revealed.

Why is it that when facing Ren Fei now, he is like a mouse seeing a cat? Could it be that Xiao Hengheng likes to be abused?
At this time.

Director Zhao coughed and pulled the speeding and swerving car back. "Ahem, the company will not forget your contribution, and will not treat anyone unfairly. But you are a non-staff member of the company after all, and Xiaofei is directly responsible for you. I can't take over your duties. I believe Xiaofei will make proper arrangements."

"Uh!" Du Heng was almost stunned by these words.

Good guy!
As expected of the company's top executive, he spoke so skillfully that it was as if he had said nothing.

When it comes to doing things themselves, they almost have their employee status engraved on their foreheads. Now, when it comes to rewarding people based on their performance, they start saying that they are non-staff members.

No, no, I can't be fooled like this. There's nothing to be afraid of. The worst that can happen is a fight.

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from my ear, "What? Why don't you thank Uncle Zhao?"

Driven by instinct, Du Heng responded, "Thank you, Mr. Zhao. I will continue to work hard and will never let you down."

But after he finished speaking, he realized something was wrong. What was he thinking just now? He was going to fight, so why did he back down when Ren Fei yelled at him?

Director Zhao didn't expect him to be so sensible. He nodded secretly, saying that there were not many such good employees. He would award him the title of "Three Good Employees" later.

"Okay, enough joking. Let me tell you the details of the operation to wipe out Biyou Village, and what information I got out of Zhao Guizhen."

Once the leader spoke, who dared not give face, unless they didn't want to be in the business anymore, they all straightened their minds. Du Heng saw Gao Yuxuan's eyes and knew that she wanted him to speak, so he didn't refuse and started to tell what he saw and heard when he arrived at Biyou Village in advance.

When mentioning that Ma Xianhong attempted to trade the Divine Machine Hundred Refinements to let himself, Wang Ye and Zhuge Qing help him perfect the self-cultivation furnace, he specifically pointed out that the three of them did not accept the Divine Machine Hundred Refinements, which could be regarded as an excuse for Mimiyan, hoping that it would be helpful to him.

Director Zhao understood what he meant, adjusted his glasses, crossed his fingers and placed them on the table, and said, "Xiao Heng, the Divine Machine Hundred Refinements is of great significance."

"I know that these eight unique skills may be extremely tempting to ordinary people, but not everyone wants to obtain them. Take you, Mr. Zhao, and Sister Fei for example. You only regard them as a unique skill. As long as they do not endanger others, you will not care too much about them. Wang Ye, Zhuge Qing, and I all have our own pursuits. How could we deny our own path of cultivation?"

"Haha, I'm not doubting you. Zhuge Qing took the initiative to come back to the company to explain, and he's a genius from the Zhuge family who has a close relationship with the company. I think there's nothing wrong with that. But Wang Ye is worth investigating. He disappeared without a trace after the operation was over."

"I can vouch for him!"

Du Heng had a serious expression on his face and spoke loudly, but in his heart he was thinking: Wang Dayan, Wang Dayan, and you, Squinty Eyes, for the two of you, I would not hesitate to fight with Director Zhao. Even if you don't know this, I have to remember this favor for you two. If I need your help in the future and you dare to refuse, I will definitely skin you alive."

Seeing how reckless he was, Ren Fei dared to guarantee for others, and she was so angry that she really wanted to sew his mouth shut as he was always causing trouble for her.

But when I thought about it, I was the one who recruited him, and he kept calling me Sister Fei all the time, so if I didn’t help him clean up his mess, who would?

He gave him a fierce look, then said to Director Zhao, "Uncle Zhao, I believe what he said."

Gao Yuxuan, who was sitting opposite, was not willing to be outdone. "Me too. After arriving at Biyou Village, I stayed with Du Heng the entire time. When Ma Xianhong proposed a deal, I saw with my own eyes that they refused."

Suddenly, the phone on the table lit up, and Er Zhuang's voice rang out from the speaker, "I can confirm that Du Heng is not lying. He was under my surveillance the whole time, hehe!"

Gao Lian felt overwhelmed, but he could do nothing. Since his two daughters had spoken, he had no choice but to help out, "Me too!"

Director Zhao was stunned by the continuous counterattacks from several people, "You are all talking one by one. I just said that I don't doubt them. Xiao Heng is your man, Xiao Fei, so I naturally believe him, but the company has its own regulations, and the process must be followed."

Du Heng secretly muttered: "What kind of process is this? It's just about choosing the right person for the job. I was originally going to be given a lenient punishment, but after Sister Fei made her move, I was exempted from that punishment."

Of course, although I didn't like what Director Zhao did, I could understand it. I just complained in my heart, but said happily: "Oh, Director Zhao, you should have said that earlier. I worried for nothing."

"Okay, let's get on with the business!" Director Zhao was speechless. This group of people relied on his trust and used connections every time. They really thought that he had the final say in the board of directors.

"Okay!" Having gotten the advantage, Du Heng naturally had to act nicely.

"During the investigation, Ma Xianhong also asked Chen Duo to capture Quan Xing's Jin Feng, and secretly ordered someone to take her away before the operation. Afterwards, we checked the people in Biyou Village. In addition to the few who were confirmed dead, only one person named Guo Liang disappeared. From the information revealed by Ma Xianhong, it is speculated that there is someone else who wants Jin Feng."

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Du Heng pointed out the person behind Ma Xianhong and asked the company to follow this line of investigation and bring misfortune to Qu Tong of Yaoxing Society.

as predicted.

When Director Zhao heard the news, his spinning fingers stopped, while Ren Fei and Gao Lian's faces changed slightly.

Du Heng observed the expressions on their faces and confirmed that Mr. Zhao and the heads of various regions had already received the news that Ma Xianhong had been kidnapped. If this was the case, coupled with his guidance just now, it seemed that several people began to suspect that there was a traitor in the headquarters or even the board of directors.

After all, the people from the headquarters were specifically responsible for escorting Ma Xianhong, and the return route was extremely secretive. Even those of them who took action last night and the temporary workers from various regions did not know about it. Now that this situation had happened, it would be strange if they did not become suspicious.

Gao Yuxuan noticed that the three people were acting strange, but it was difficult to ask Mr. Zhao and her father, so she looked at her best friend and asked, "Xiao Feifei, what's wrong?"

This nickname, combined with Ren Fei's cold and aloof temperament, does seem a bit out of place.

Du Heng slowly lowered his head, his body trembling, as if he was trying hard to endure something.

Ren Fei's face was filled with gloom. She knew that he was trying not to laugh. Who knew what he was thinking in his mind? He was very unbridled before, and now hearing such a childish nickname, she was afraid that his image would be greatly damaged in his eyes, and he would be very proud of himself in the future.

She put her hand on his thigh, pinched and twisted it with her fingers, warning him not to act presumptuously in front of her.

Then he glanced at the culprit, wishing he could tear her mouth apart, and said coldly: "On your way back, Ma Xianhong was kidnapped and there is no trace of him."

As soon as these words came out.

Du Heng endured the piercing pain in his legs and did his job as an actor. He stood up straight with a serious expression, and his facial expressions changed faster than a woman.

Gao Yuxuan also stopped teasing, her fox eyes revealed horror, and she realized something in an instant.

"There is a traitor, and..." He glanced at Director Zhao and didn't continue.

Director Zhao had no intention of blaming anyone. When he learned that Ma Xianhong was kidnapped, he felt that something was wrong at the headquarters. After hearing what Du Heng said, he confirmed that the person behind Ma Xianhong had planted spies at the headquarters and even in the board of directors.

"Ugh!"

A company that maintains the balance of the alien world actually has a traitor, and he, the top boss, was completely unaware of it. The thought of it makes him feel ashamed and gives him a headache.

Du Heng just wanted to say, this is just the beginning, there will be more exciting things to come.

Suddenly he felt something in his heart, he looked around and found that Gao Yuxuan was also looking at him. They knew each other's thoughts with just one look, that is, there was more than one traitor in the company, and there was also a pawn planted by Bihe Ren hidden in the Northeast region.

Director Zhao didn't know about this and was still reflecting on himself: "Xiao Heng, the cognitive modification you talked about with Xiao Fei before does exist now."

"Uncle Zhao, this is also my responsibility. Please be lenient." Ren Fei asked.

Director Zhao waved his hands. He was not someone who would shirk his responsibilities.

"We have been confused by the leniency bench over the years, blindly believing that we can judge whether a person's words are true or false by sitting on it. In fact, from Chen Duo's experience and Lao Liao's subsequent help in filling her cognition, we should have realized that the leniency bench is no longer a foolproof integrity investigation tool."

After he finished speaking, his tone changed, his eyes fixed on the people present, and he said in a deep voice: "This matter ends here, and it is not allowed to be spread out."

"Understood!" Everyone nodded in agreement, guessing that he wanted to secretly investigate the identity of the traitor.

Du Heng reminded, "Boss Zhao, it wasn't just Sister Xuan and I who were present at the time. The other temporary workers were also there, and they also knew about the person behind Ma Xianhong."

"I will notify the temporary worker privately, so you don't need to worry."

　I'm late, I forgot the time, sorry! Sorry!
