Chapter 628: Chapter 628: This Kid is Really Stupid_1 Chapter 628: Chapter 628: This Kid is Really Stupid_1 Everyone was waiting to see the new Division Commander show his hand, to find out whether he had risen through his own abilities or had powerful connections behind him. The difference between the two was enormous!
There were plenty of head officers in the military region, but there was also a huge difference between those who were capable and those who were not!
Those who did not have real abilities could only hold deputy positions, or civilian jobs at most. Even if they had a high rank, no one would envy them.
On his way, people paid their respects to him. Huo Beijiang, a tall man with long legs, walked quickly, returning salutes briskly as he passed by. Lin Yizhong had been waiting for him outside the military airport for a long time. One could say that he had arrived early in the morning.
He did not expect that the boss would only return now.
“Boss!” Lin Yizhong quickly greeted, “Why did you come back just now? Did something hold you up?”
Huo Beijiang murmured softly, “Yeah, there was something.”
From the moment he boarded the plane back from the provincial city, Huo Beijiang seemed like a changed man. He was no longer relaxed or nonchalant. Instead, he was serious, deep, reserved, and indifferent. His sharp brows only needed to furrow slightly to give off an awe-inspiring aura of power.
Lu Jin found it quite strange, for he preferred the boss as he was before. He liked the boss who would tease him and call him Little Deer for fun!
Alas! It was only when the boss returned to the provincial city and was with his wife that he would relax. He truly wished his sister-in-law would be able to come soon. Hold on! After his sister-in-law arrives, should he call her ‘Mom’ or ‘Sis’?
If he chose to call her ‘Mom’, Jiang Nanfei was younger than him, which would hardly be appropriate.
If he chose to call her ‘Sis’, wouldn’t that seem like he was taking advantage of the boss?
Lu Jin, trailing behind, was so worried it was as though he were turning white. So much so, that Huo Beijiang had already gone up into the car, and he was still standing there on the ground!
“What’s with you? Why the bitter gourd face?” Lin Yizhong came over and gossiped cheekily.
“I was just wondering whether I should call the boss’s wife ‘Mom’ or ‘Sis’ when she arrives.”
Lin Yizhong’s facial expression turned peculiar. Sizing him up, he said naturally, “Considering you’re our boss’s ‘son’, it’s obvious that you should call her ‘Mom’!”
“Really… Really?” Lu Jin’s ears turned red, “But I feel shy!”
Lin Yizhong, “…” This kid is really dumb!
Actually, the army base and military airport were situated within the same complex, but the interior was so vast that it would take at least an hour to walk from here to the main office building. Usually, they walked, but today was different. It was a critical conference after a military exercise.
At present, all the Division Commanders, staff officers, and others were gathered in the large conference room.
Only Huo Beijiang, the 36th Division Commander, was not there yet.
In the car, Lin Yizhong couldn’t wait to blurt out, “Boss, I’ve figured it out. The 36th Division is too weak, practically a piece of crap. I think some people are not behaving themselves.” He had gone through all the files and records of the 36th Division and discovered that since its establishment, the 36th Division had never reached the top ten in countless military exercises, let alone the first place.
You should know that since the boss started his career in the army, whether in exercises or military contests, he had never finished second.
Huo Beijiang narrowed his eyes dangerously, “What, did you guys lose the exercise?”
“How could we!” Lin Yizhong said proudly, “If we had lost, would I dare to come to fetch you? I’d rather find a piece of tofu and knock myself dead.”
