Chapter 99: Chapter 099 Let’s Go Digging Potatoes

“War Wolf Rescue Team Captain Xu Qigang…” Xu Qigang was cut off before he could finish speaking by Shen Feihu.

“Enough! Tell me what made you think of sending the Provincial Rescue Center’s people to dig potatoes?”

When did it change from hanging around to digging potatoes? A flash of surprise crossed Xu Qigang’s handsome face as he turned to look at Zhou Hong, who lowered his head even more.

Shen Feihu might look like a rough man, but he was attentive to details. He had a thorough understanding of Xu Qigang, knowing him to be a man of principles. Even if he was reluctant, he would excellently complete the tasks assigned by superiors.

Thus, he was slightly surprised when he first received the complaint, thinking this young man had finally seen the light. Now it seemed that Zhou Hong was the instigator.

Unable to dodge it, Zhou Hong took the initiative to explain, “Here’s the thing, our team reclaimed some wasteland last year and planted potatoes and cabbages. Now that the potatoes are harvested and the training tasks in the team are heavy, I saw the Provincial Rescue Center’s people idling every day, so I thought they might as well contribute a bit.”

...
Xu Qigang massaged his temples, his future efforts would have to shift from training to focusing a bit on life. Otherwise, besides the nickname of Living Yama, he would gain a reputation for being overbearing.

“You really have some nerve,” said Shen Feihu.

Zhou Hong was baffled. What did he hear? Did he misunderstand? Weren’t they just complimenting him? How did it turn into having too much nerve?

Such double standards were outrageous.

Xiao Tao gave him a knowing look.

Indeed, Captain Xu was the real son. All other “sons” and “nephews” were just nonsense.

“I’m sorry for the trouble, sir. I will take full responsibility for this,” Xu Qigang greeted Shen Feihu and apologized.

He was merely a man of ordinary background whose achievements came not from connections but from his outstanding combat skills, responsible behavior, and a quiet, low-profile demeanor.

Whenever anything major was involved, Xu Qigang was absolutely the most unrestrained and imperious. But apart from that, in private, he was silent, restrained. Whether dealing with superiors or subordinates, he adhered to principles that left him with a clear conscience.

Only with his brothers did he show his true nature.

The incident with Zhou Hong was indeed not handled properly. He could have put it off due to heavy training tasks. As part of the Rescue Association, the pride of the War Wolf Rescue Team, he could not disgrace the Rescue Association.

But other’s actions gave them the opportunity to complain.

Shen Feihu looked at Xu Qigang with a stern gaze, patted him on the shoulder, and said with heartfelt concern, “Don’t worry, I’ve handled the matter. It really wasn’t a big deal, it’s just that they came on suddenly and were pushed into it.”

Having seen him fight fearlessly, Shen Feihu truly cherished this subordinate.

Zhou Hong and Xiao Tao exchanged glances again. Weren’t they just saying he had too much nerve? Now they’re saying it’s no big deal. They must have something against him.

Zhou Hong finally understood Shen Jianguo’s feelings!

“Thank you, President. It’s mealtime now; perhaps you could have dinner in our cafeteria before heading back,” Xu Qigang said.

“I hadn’t planned on leaving, you’re not getting out of giving me a meal,” Shen Feihu responded.

*******

With leadership present, the singing before dinner was louder than usual; the girls of the Song and Dance Troupe had radiant smiles, and even received named commendations while greeting.
