The Tempting Road to Becoming an Official

Sun Weifa felt embarrassed upon hearing these words.

His heart hardened.

Pointing at Chen Fang and Jiang Feng, he said, "Alright, since you both are saying this, from now on, as long as I'm the head of security at the sanatorium, neither of you can get through this door. Try if you dare."

Jiang Feng instantly exploded.

Wanting to confront Sun Weifa.

But Chen Fang grabbed him tightly.

He pulled out his phone, wanting to try calling Xu Nuo again.

Unfortunately, it was the same as before, just like with Xu Yan, both their phones were unreachable.

Seeing this scene.

Sun Weifa mocked, "I say, you two, stop pretending. I've worked at this sanatorium for over a decade, seen all kinds of people. People like you, only knowing how to scheme, won't make it far. While you're young, do something proper, or you'll eventually harm yourselves."

Just as he finished speaking.

A military jeep approached slowly.

Sun Weifa's eyes lit up.

He immediately jogged forward.

At this moment, the jeep stopped, the rear window rolled down, revealing a stern face.

It was none other than Dong Fuzhong.

"Hello, leader."

Thinking they were about to greet him.

Sun Weifa immediately greeted respectfully.

Dong Fuzhong didn't respond; he looked towards the side of the gate, turned his head inside, and asked, "Is that Chen Fang over there?"

Sitting beside him was Dong Youying.

Upon hearing this.

She immediately leaned her head out, squinting to see clearly, then loudly shouted, "Ah Fang, Ah Fang..."

Chen Fang, amidst his troubles, heard someone calling him.

Turning his head, he immediately recognized Dong Youying and excitedly ran over.

Before he could get close.

Dong Youying also got out of the car.

She casually linked arms with him and said affectionately, "I was just wondering if you'd come over, and then I saw you. Is this what they call a connection of hearts?"

This scene.

Made Sun Weifa shiver.

He wasn't impressed by Chen Fang just moments ago.

Who knew he had such an unusual relationship with the Dong Family.

Suddenly, he felt a bit flustered inside.

Sweat began to slightly bead on his forehead.

"Why didn't you go in upon arriving?"

Dong Fuzhong asked.

Chen Fang didn't have a chance to answer before Sun Weifa gratefully said, "Mr. Dong, it's my fault, all my fault. Mayor Chen didn't have a pass; I didn't receive the notice, so there was a bit of a misunderstanding in between, that's why..."

"What misunderstanding? You just don't think much of us, speaking so sanctimoniously."

A direct Jiang Feng couldn't stand Sun Weifa's behavior, so he jumped in.

Chen Fang quickly glared at him.

He said to Dong Fuzhong, "Director Sun is just following procedures; he's been actively helping us contact Mr. Xu there, just hasn't been able to reach him."

Once he said this.

Sun Weifa was so grateful.

If Dong Fuzhong wasn't present, he might even cry holding Chen Fang's leg.

Jiang Feng still wanted to argue.

Chen Fang immediately interrupted him, saying, "Alright, I'll go in with Mr. Dong's car. You haven't had breakfast yet, have you? Just find any breakfast shop nearby and wait for me."

Only then did Jiang Feng sulkily nod without saying anything.

Just as Chen Fang got into Dong Fuzhong's car, he asked, "Mr. Dong, did you also come to see Mr. Xu?"

Dong Fuzhong nodded grimly and said, "I received news a few days ago that Mr. Xu might not make it. I just returned to Yuanjing last night, and today I received news that Old Xu is critically ill."

Critically ill?

These words made Chen Fang's heart sink.

He recalled the last time he came to Yuanjing and was troubled; it was Old Xu who came out to resolve the situation despite his frail health, which made Chen Fang feel a bit sad.

"Wait a moment."

Suddenly, as the car passed building seven.

Chen Fang shouted to the driver.

The driver stopped the car inexplicably.

Chen Fang opened the car door.

He walked straight to the entrance of building six.

He pulled a small bottle of white liquor from his pocket and placed it on the grass in front of the building.

This bottle of liquor was bought from a shop after Xu Yan called him.

"Ah Chen, I'm here to see you."

After saying this.

Chen Fang's eyes started to get moist.

He stood silently in front of the building for a few minutes before returning to the car.

This time, he didn't stop again and quickly arrived at the building where Xu Mao was.

When they arrived.

Various vehicles were already parked in front of the building.

Many people were gathered at the entrance, talking in small groups.

Everyone was frowning, obviously worried about Xu Mao's situation.

As mentioned before, compared to the Hou Family, the Xu Family was not heavyweight.

But after all, it is one of the three major families of Yuanjing.

Over the years, the Xu Family has nurtured many loyal disciples and has some influence in politics; otherwise, Shangguan Shoudong wouldn't be wary of both the Xu and Dong Families.

Seeing Dong Fuzhong get out of the car.

Everyone immediately gathered around to greet him.

At that moment, a commotion erupted at the entrance of the building.

Xu Nuo suddenly appeared at the doorway, looking out at the crowd.

The people at the entrance saw this and quickly approached him.

"How is Mr. Xu?"

"What's the situation now?"

People were bombarding him with questions, causing a chaotic scene.

But Xu Nuo was not in the mood to respond.

His eyes caught sight of Chen Fang among the crowd.

Immediately, he shouted, "Chen Fang, Chen Fang, Dad wants to see you. Hurry over..."

The shout.

Instantly drew everyone's attention to Chen Fang.

You have to realize, these dozens of people traveled from various places to meet Xu Mao.

These people are all big shots.

No one expected that at this moment, Xu Mao wanted to see not them, but a young-looking guy.

"Who is he?"

Someone asked quietly.

Another person shook his head and said, "No idea, seems unfamiliar."

"Why does this kid get to see Mr. Xu before us? Who does he think he is?"

"You better watch your words. Didn't you see Mr. Dong personally brought him here? He's obviously not an ordinary guy."

The whispers kept entering Chen Fang's ears.

He didn't have time to care.

He jogged to Xu Nuo's side.

Xu Nuo gripped his hand and said, "Come, follow me."

The dim and solemn corridor was bustling with people, including doctors, nurses, and some unidentified individuals.

Overall, everyone seemed anxious.

Soon.

Chen Fang was brought to the entrance of the hospital room.

Most of the Xu Family's immediate relatives were gathered here.

Xu Guan, the current head of the Xu Family, was slumped in a corner holding his head, looking quite distressed.

Surrounding him were men and women, presumably his wife and children.

Xu Yan was pacing anxiously at the entrance, and upon seeing Chen Fang, she also approached him proactively.
