“Chu Lan, your guess is already very accurate. You are only a thin layer of window paper away from the real answer.”
“So, what does Chen Duo want?” Zhang Chulan’s heart was like a cat scratching, and he was eager to know the answer.
The others were no less eager, their appetites were whetted, and they all wanted to pry open his head and get the answer out of him.
Du Heng did not keep the secret any longer and said calmly, “Often the things that are easiest to get are also the things that are easiest to ignore. What Chen Duo wants is very simple. Treat her as Chen Duo, not as a Gu-body Saint Child, and give her a basic right as a human being – choice.”
When everyone heard this, they suddenly came to their senses!
Yup!
Yup!
Choice is what Chen Duo wants most!
People like them have made too many choices in their lives and have long forgotten how they felt when they first got the right to choose.
It turns out that the things that are easiest to get are the easiest to be ignored.
Everyone treated Chen Duo as a holy child with a Gu body, but never treated her as a human being.
And what about Liao Zhong?
He treated her as his own daughter and wanted to give her the best. He worked hard for her freedom. However, in the end, she was no match for an unexpected person, Ma Xianhong, because the latter treated her as a living person and gave her the first choice.
Old Meng, who had fully awakened, sat there in a daze, muttering to himself: “Old Liao, old Liao, we were all wrong. We were wrong halfway through filling the gap in Chen Duo’s cognition. Chen Duo’s thinking is gradually approaching that of a complete person, while our thinking is still stuck on the Gu-body Saint Child of the Medicine Fairy Association.”
Zhang Chulan finally understood what was wrong, and his expression became complicated. He felt that Liao Zhong’s death was worthless, but also of great significance.
He believed that if Du Heng did not know that Chen Duo had returned to meet Liao Zhong, he would not have been able to discover the key. Liao Zhong’s death was a clue left to everyone, which was of great significance to a certain extent.
Unfortunately, Zhang Chulan didn’t know that Du Heng was cheating!
After Wang Zhenqiu came back to his senses, he stared at Du Heng with great interest, thinking, “It was already very interesting to meet so many perverts on this trip. Then I discovered the complicated multifaceted Zhang Chulan, and now there is an even more complicated Du Heng. It’s getting more and more interesting. Haha.”
Wait until everyone has digested it.
Du Heng continued, “When we wanted to rescue Chen Duo, we automatically fell into a misunderstanding and still treated her as a Gu-body holy child. If we really treated her as a living person, we would first need to know whether Chen Duo was willing to be rescued? Does she want to be rescued? Shouldn’t we listen to Chen Duo’s personal choice?”
“This!” Lao Meng wanted to refute, but he admitted in his heart that the other party was right.
Wang Zhenqiu also agreed: “Old Meng, although what he said is a bit unkind, it does make sense. Perhaps you should respect Chen Duo’s opinion.”
“But if Chen Duo is given a choice, she will never accept being caught and brought back to the company alive. She will definitely choose death.” Lao Meng said sadly.
This time.
Everyone fell silent again.
Given Chen Duo’s personality, she would indeed do so.
Old Meng couldn’t help but look at Du Heng again and said with difficulty: “Brother Du, I, Old Meng, beg you, if you can guess what Chen Duo wants early, you will definitely be able to think of a way to solve her dilemma. This is also the last thing I can do for Old Liao.”
To this
Du Heng was quite helpless.
Do you really think you are an imperial envoy, sent by the headquarters with a special sword? And you dare to make demands to the top?
This strange behavior of not saying anything for a long time once again attracted Zhang Chulan’s attention. Based on the latter’s understanding of him, if there was no way, he would immediately refuse, so…
Zhang Chulan lowered his head and thought, his eyes flashing, and began to set his sights on him.
This time, the company dispatched six temporary workers, and also wanted to take the opportunity to get control of the temporary workers’ command. He thought about the risk of Sister Baoer being exposed one day. In the process of getting along with other temporary workers, he suddenly had an idea – he planned to push Sister Baoer to the temporary workers’ side, and let her become one of them, a role similar to “family”, while he himself would play the good cop and the bad cop.
After just one or two days, the temporary workers accepted Sister Baoer, but they were far from becoming “family members”.
I have been suffering from a lack of opportunity to elevate the friendship between Sister Baoer and their kind, and it has been delayed. Now, the opportunity has come.
If Sister Baoer speaks to Du Heng, the latter will not let Sister Baoer down. Whether it succeeds or not, Sister Baoer will gain the friendship of everyone present.
Do what you want to do.
She typed a few words on her phone, and while everyone’s attention was focused on Du Heng, she secretly handed the phone to Sister Baoer.
The latter made a clever gesture, indicating that there was no problem, which made Zhang Chulan feel confused.
Followed by.
Feng Baobao raised her hand and said, “Du Heng!”
“What’s wrong?” Du Heng came back to his senses, curious about what witty remarks this heavenly soldier would make.
“If you have any way, help her. If you help them now, they will help you in the future.”
Du Heng’s eyes were fixed on Zhang Chulan. He didn’t believe that Feng Baobao could say such a thing.
Seeing his sullen face and the way he made faces, I figured out what he was up to, but I didn’t expose him because I knew he was doing it for Feng Baobao’s sake.
Don’t tell me yet.
With just a few words, Feng Baobao instantly gained the closeness of other temporary workers, and Lao Meng even gave her a look of gratitude.
And she was indeed under the control of Zhang Chulan. Feng Baobao trusted her very much and was naturally willing to help her.
Weigh the pros and cons in your mind and decide whether to help or not?
If you help, it will inevitably go against the will of the board of directors, and if you are not careful it will cause dissatisfaction. In the end, you won’t catch the fox, but will easily get yourself into trouble.
Therefore, we cannot help without considering the consequences, as that will only make Lao Meng and others think it is easy.
It’s like when someone asks you for help and you agree on the spot. Others will definitely think it’s a small favor and won’t be grateful for your help. You have to pretend to be embarrassed and tell them that the matter is difficult to do and you have to study it carefully. Only then will others take it seriously and be more grateful for your help.
“Huh!” He took a breath, calmed himself down, and prepared to start the performance.
In such a world, everyone has to learn to act with a mask.
Only those with superb acting skills can thrive in this field.
Then he said seriously: “Old Meng, I can help you if you are busy. I do have an immature solution.”
Seeing Du Heng finally agreed.
Everyone finally put their minds at ease and had a better impression of him, thinking that this young man was capable of handling things.
Lao Meng was even more grateful, “Thank you, Du.”
“Hey, don’t thank me yet, I haven’t finished speaking yet.”
Du Heng waved his hand to stop her and said slowly, “I am willing to lend a helping hand. Chen Duo’s experience deserves sympathy, and there is also Lao Meng’s request. Most importantly, it is rare for Bao Bao to ask me, and I cannot let her down.”
The last sentence was what he really wanted to say. Since Zhang Chulan wanted to help Feng Baobao gain the sympathy and friendship of the temporary workers, then he would naturally do it completely.
“But there is one thing I want to make clear in advance. I will do my best to negotiate with the headquarters, but I am not a saint. It is impossible for me to offend the headquarters for Chen Duo. I can only do my best and leave the rest to fate.”
“Of course I should!” Lao Meng could understand and knew how difficult it was to save Chen Duo. He didn’t think there was anything wrong with Du Heng’s “passive” approach.
Everyone nodded slightly, saying there was nothing wrong with it.
People tend to seek benefits and avoid harm. Who would be willing to risk their life to help a stranger?
Would you rather eat steamed bread at home and let your family starve to death than help others?
So kind?
Gao Yuxuan poked him and asked, “How can we help? When we talked about Chen Duo before, you could have said that there was nothing you could do.”
“That’s why I said it was an immature solution.” Du Heng shrugged and spread his hands.
However, Zhang Chulan disagreed and flattered him with a smile: “Hehe, Brother Heng, I don’t know you yet. You never fight a battle without preparation. If you say it is an immature solution, then there is a solution. If you say it is difficult, then it can be done. If it cannot be done, then it is a bit difficult.”
Er Zhuang: “Yeah, I think so too. I’ve never seen Du Heng panic. He always has a plan in mind for everything he does.”
Xiao Zizai: “Brother Du is very thorough in his work.”
Hei Guan Er: “Sister Big Sister saw that he was extraordinary at first sight, and recruited him into Lu Zhong the second time. Those who understand Sister Big Sister know how valuable he is.”
Wang Zhenqiu: “Haha, that’s really not that simple.”
Feng Baobao: “Trust Du Heng, it’s all right!”
“Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing? Are you all wearing the same pants? This is not the way to beat up the rich!” Du Heng was so angry that he laughed.
This series of flattery almost burned out my CPU, one PUA after another came upon me!
Fortunately, Lao Meng is a loyal and honest man. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, “Brother Du, please forgive me. They are just trying to help me out of kindness. Let’s talk about how to save Chen Duo. If you need help, just let me know.”
Du Heng glared at Zhang Chulan secretly. This guy was the one who caused everything.
“At present, the company’s attitude towards Chen Duo is to not care whether she lives or dies, but the way to deal with her is all in your hands. If everything is settled by execution, the company is most willing to see this result. However, if you arrest Chen Duo and let the company deal with her, she will basically face life imprisonment.
If we were kinder and gave her the choice she wanted most, just as Lao Meng just said, Chen Duo would definitely choose death.
So what we have to do is to provide a third option, which is for both Chen Duo and the company. As for whether Chen Duo will choose it, that is a matter for the future. In short, we respect all her choices at that time.”
“What is the third option?” asked Lao Meng.
“It can be anything. The key is to get the company’s approval. This brings us back to the most basic point – why did the company deal with Chen Duo?”
Everyone present was smart, and they figured out the reason in an instant, and said in unison: “The Holy Child of Gu Body!”
“Yes, this is what the company fears the most. Whether it’s defecting or killing Liao Zhong, it can be a big deal or a small matter, but Chen Duo is a Gu, and it is a Gu poison that can get out of control at any time. The consequences can not only affect the alien world, but also affect ordinary people. Anyone who violates this bottom line will never be let go by the company.”
Hear this.
Everyone finally understood Du Heng’s method of rescue.
Since the company is worried about Chen Duo being poisoned, if she is gone, the threat will naturally be gone, and it will be much easier for the company to deal with her.
Suddenly, Lao Meng sighed and said, “Brother Du, let me say something depressing. We all know about Chen Duo’s experience in the bunker. Liao Zhong and the bunker personnel wanted to remove the poison from Chen Duo all the time, but in the end they had no way to do anything.”
“That’s why I said we should do our best and leave the rest to fate. How to remove the poison from her body will be a headache for Chen Duo when she makes the third choice. Right now, we need to make the company accept our method.”
When Lao Meng heard this, he felt that what Du Heng said was very right. After all, it doesn’t make sense to get on the bus first and buy the ticket later.
“How can we get the company to accept this?”
Du Heng pondered for a while, then slowly said, “I will ask someone to negotiate with Director Zhao. As for the other board members, don’t they want you to take the blame for the crackdown on Biyou Village?
But you also came up with the idea of ’asking the leader for instructions on how to act’, so why not report the Chen Duo incident as well? Anyway, you will have to take some blame, but as long as the board of directors accepts it, you might as well take the blame together with them. This way, the relationship between the various regions and the headquarters will return to the starting point, and they will not be able to take advantage of the opportunity to interfere with the command of temporary workers.”
The words fell.
There was a buzz in the house!
“Brother Heng, that’s brilliant!”
“Hehe, Du Heng, you are really good at stealing!”
“Brother Du, this seems a bit threatening. Forget it. For Lao Liao, I have no choice but to do this!”
