C275 Xu Da Was Furious
Xu Da was furious in his office.
"How do you do things? We haven't found any news about Xiao Chen yet? There's no news about Xiao Chen anymore. All of you don't have to do anything anymore. Just pack up and leave! "
The managers, generals, and some of Xu Da's confidants all looked pale, although they knew that Xu Da was angry about Yi Mengruo being rescued. However, they also knew that Xu Da always kept his word. They might not be able to find Xiao Chen again.
They were afraid that Xu Da would really fire all of them.
Normally, they could not be fired when working in the city government because this was an official position given by the empire. If one wanted to be fired, it would also be the leaders and officers in the capital who would be fired. However, Xu Da had such a huge influence and influence in Wuling, and you refused to leave. He naturally has a way to let you go.
Xu Da had been working hard in the Wuling for twenty years. If he couldn't even do such a small thing, then he really wouldn't be able to live as a Vice Guard.
However, the main purpose of his words this time was to hope that his subordinates would work harder. The entire Wuling was only that big. These people weren't fighting one on one in Wuling. They all had the support of more or less the forces behind them.
As long as everyone used their full strength to mobilize their subordinates, they would be able to turn the entire Wuling upside down within three days. If they really took Xiao Chen's disappearance seriously, there would have been a result long ago. It wasn't as if three days were about to pass, and there was still no news.
Unless Xiao Chen could fly, and could appear in different regions of Wuling every day, and also monitor the situation of the entire city, Xu Da believed that his subordinates would definitely find Xiao Chen.
Of course, during this period of time, there were also some people who suggested that Xiao Chen might not be in Wuling, but this was immediately rejected by Xu Da.
The only person who could rob the prison could only be Xiao Chen, not anyone else. There might be some kind of secret relationship between him and Yi Mengruo. Now, Xu Da felt that... If Xiao Chen and Yi Mengruo were together, this would be his biggest problem in the future.
Yi Mengruo seemed to like to hook up with men and socialize with people from all walks of life. However, there had never been any rumors about her having any relationship with some of the higher ups in the city.
This made Xu Da quite concerned about this woman. He had a feeling that this woman was not simple. Furthermore, Yi Mengruo had been in Wuling for five years. After being recognized as the number one beauty in Wuling, she had become even more low-key.
Xu Da, who was very sensitive to human nature, clearly realized that this woman's purpose was not simple. She was definitely not an ordinary woman who relied on her looks to mix in society.
Now that she was with Xiao Chen, although Xiao Chen was seriously injured, she was still with him. However, Xiao Chen had the support of the capital behind him. If Yi Mengruo said some unspeakable secrets and went out, if he was caught by that person in the capital, he, Xu Da, and the group of people below would all be finished.
The more Xu Da thought about it, the more he felt cold sweat trickling down his forehead. Looking at these so-called directors and officers in front of him, for the first time, he felt a sense of powerlessness from the bottom of his heart.
Although only Xiao Chen appeared this time, it was enough to turn the entire Wuling upside down. This was something that Xu Da had never expected. The biggest opponent in his life was actually a person who was completely harmless at the beginning.
Xiao Chen's performance at the auction last time had indeed surprised many people, but Xu Da didn't have much of an opinion about him. He just thought that Xiao Chen was a rich second generation who had no place to spend money to show off.
Plus, he knew that Xiao Chen had a powerful background in the capital, so he was probably the young master of some big family in the capital. However, he didn't expect that Xiao Chen's purpose in coming to Wuling wasn't just to show off his wealth.
Furthermore, Xiao Chen was not the young master of a big family who relied on his own power to show off, because Xiao Chen also had medical skills, and his martial arts were very high. He was very difficult to deal with.
It was all thanks to Old Master Chu that he knew about Xiao Chen's medical skills. Although the Chu family didn't have any contact with anyone in the city government, as a big family like the Chu family, they definitely knew that there was no such thing as an invisible wall.
In order to ensure the long-term benefits of his family, Old Master Chu was very careful in his contact with Xu Da. Every time, he would send a message to Xu Da without leaving a trace, and also request Xu Da to do so.
Although Xu Da was very annoyed by Chu family's actions, he had no choice. After all, the Chu family's business was related to the life and death of the entire Wuling. If he wanted the Chu family to completely submit to him, that would only cost a great deal of power to trip over their properties.
However, Xu Da didn't have the time to care about these matters. He didn't put the Chu family in his eyes. The entire Wuling was his primary target. Therefore, he allowed the Chu family to do whatever they wanted.
As long as it didn't offend Xu Da's interests, he would just turn a blind eye to some things and pretend that he didn't see them.
However, Old Master Chu had always been trustworthy. Every time Xu Da gave his family some news, he would definitely reply with a relatively equal message.
This was also the reason why Xu Da had arranged for all kinds of forces in Wuling to push some things to happen without any resistance for so many years.
Apart from the help of Situ family, the information provided by Chu family was also very important.
"I want to find a place to take a bath." Yi Mengruo looked at Xiao Chen who had just set up the fire and said.
They had been in the mountain for three days. Xiao Chen had disguised himself a little this morning and walked around the area. He found that the entire Wuling was still searching for the two of them, and it had become worse.
Helpless, Xiao Chen could only temporarily stay in the mountain for two days. After coming back, Yi Mengruo could not bear the smell on her body anymore.
In fact, this was still considered good in Xiao Chen's eyes. The weather was not hot now. So the sweat would be much less. However, Yi Mengruo did indeed have some fragrant and stinky smell on her now. It was a little like the smell of a child who had not taken a shower for a few days.
"I will go and find a water source nearby. When the time comes, I will rekindle the fire and boil a pot of water for you." Xiao Chen said, although he really wanted to reject this request. Because of the wilderness, he had to find a way to boil water. Then he could only borrow it from the farmer's house.
He still hadn't returned the bedding he borrowed last time.
