HCB Chapter 448 Holy crap, how shameless!
Chapter 448 Holy crap, how shameless!
Tian Guangzhi refused to accept the job assignments given to veterans by the military upon his discharge.
Just like Gu Nan back then, he didn't ask for any of the demobilization benefits.
It was clearly stated in Tian Guangzhi's discharge application.
Therefore, Tian Guangzhi had no intention of accepting the job assigned through the normal process. Chief Lu had always been thinking of using his connections to find Tian Guangzhi a job privately.
Otherwise, he was really afraid that Tian Guangzhi would starve him to death.
Surprisingly, today I heard that Wang Defa suddenly had a change of heart and offered to introduce a job to Tian Guangzhi.
Chief Lu felt that things were not so simple and that there seemed to be a conspiracy involved.
At his age, Chief Lu has experienced so much, he can generally discern a person's true nature.
Although Wang Defa usually appears kind and friendly, he tends to be selfish and calculating when it comes to personal gain.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have remained in the position of brigade commander for over a decade without any promotion.
Tian Guangzhi, who is younger than him, has already been promoted to the position of division commander, which shows that the speed of a person's promotion is related to their character.
Wang Defa's sudden act of kindness made Chief Lu think twice.
“I will always be your fallback plan. If you don’t like the job that Wang Defa introduced to you, you can come to me anytime.”
"And don't be so naive all the time, be more careful in everything you do," Chief Lu said to Tian Guangzhi.
Tian Guangzhi was sitting in the spot where Wang Youyou had just been sitting. When he heard what the old commander Lu said, Tian Guangzhi's eyes reddened.
"Okay." Tian Guangzhi smiled, revealing his small, white teeth.
Using laughter to hide the fact that she was about to cry.
Old Commander Lu was really, really good to him. The words "I will always be your last resort" warmed Tian Guangzhi's heart.
However, what Chief Lu said did serve as a reminder to Tian Guangzhi.
After all, he and Brigade Commander Wang didn't communicate much on a regular basis, and their relationship wasn't good enough for them to introduce each other to jobs.
Today, Commander Wang suddenly said he wanted to introduce me to a job, which seems a bit strange upon reflection.
Especially during their previous interactions, because Tian Guangzhi held a higher position than Wang Defa, Wang Defa, relying on his age, always outwardly complied with Tian Guangzhi's arrangements but inwardly resisted them.
It seems that Tian Guangzhi needs to be more careful now.
Hearing the conversation between the two, Su Niannian couldn't help but smile.
Tian Guangzhi is a very good person, and Su Niannian really needs someone like him who knows her well to help her.
Su Niannian had long wanted to bring Tian Guangzhi to her side, and it seemed that the opportunity was very good.
With Wang Defa and Wang Youyou gone, those left here were all his close brothers who had risked their lives for each other, so they chatted even more unrestrainedly.
Although the highly respected Chief Lu was present, everyone there was considered to be one of his confidants, and no one felt uncomfortable speaking because of his presence.
So everyone ate happily and chatted joyfully.
It wasn't until it was getting late and the state-run restaurant was about to close that everyone reluctantly left.
"Don't be so disappointed, guys. Even though I'm not in the army anymore, we can still get together often."
"Moreover, some of our brothers were out on missions today and couldn't make it, but there will be other opportunities later."
"I'm a retired soldier, not dead!" Tian Guangzhi said with a smile.
What followed was a punch from several of his brothers.
Tian Guangzhi didn't care at all; instead, he laughed even more heartily.
That's true, but because of Tian Guangzhi's discharge from the military, it might not be as easy to meet him again as it is now.
It does have an impact after all.
But he wasn't afraid. He felt that even if good brothers didn't see each other often, they were still good brothers.
In Tian Guangzhi's view, those relationships that have grown distant because of infrequent meetings are not worth losing.
Just like him and Gu Nan, even though they hadn't seen each other for several years, when they met again, their relationship was still the same as before.
The group exchanged a few more pleasantries.
"If you need anything in the future, just tell us!"
"That's right, we must not drift apart."
"Then we'll be off. Let's keep in touch, whether there's anything or not!"
As the group talked, Tian Guangzhi responded. When they arrived at the entrance of the state-run restaurant, they greeted each other, spoke briefly with Chief Lu, and then left.
At this moment, Gu Nan pulled Su Niannian to Tian Guangzhi's side.
Gu Nan patted Tian Guangzhi on the shoulder.
"What? You're reluctant to leave? Didn't you consider these things when you decided to retire?" Gu Nan rolled her eyes at Tian Guangzhi, speaking casually.
"I thought about it, but now that it's come to this, I still feel a little empty inside." Tian Guangzhi ignored Gu Nan's eye roll and forced a smile as he spoke.
Gu Nan could understand Tian Guangzhi's feelings.
After all, when Gu Nan quietly left after retiring from the army, he was very reluctant to part with these brothers.
Many of the brothers who had fought together on the battlefield were sworn brothers, and Gu Nan, who left without saying goodbye, felt even more distressed than Tian Guangzhi at this moment.
"By the way, why did Wang Defa come over today? When did your relationship become so good?" Gu Nan suddenly remembered this and asked Tian Guangzhi.
“Wang Defa, when I went to inform Zhou Qishan, he was standing there and said he was coming.”
"I figured we knew each other, and since they asked, I couldn't just refuse, could I?"
"He acts like I don't need a bite to eat from him!" Tian Guangzhi said.
Gu Nan listened to Tian Guangzhi's words and realized that it was Wang Defa who had taken the initiative to come.
He probably wanted to create opportunities for his daughter.
Gu Nan couldn't help but sneer, "Let's go."
At this moment, even if Tian Guangzhi was slow to react, he understood something.
When Zhou Qishan passed by Tian Guangzhi, he also rolled his eyes at Tian Guangzhi.
"What a brainless idiot!" Zhou Qishan muttered.
Tian Guangzhi was taken aback. "You're not talking about me, are you?"
"Besides you, who else here deserves the title of 'stupid'?" Zhou Qishan said mercilessly.
Then Tian Guangzhi jogged a few steps and got behind Zhou Qishan, and tried to strangle Zhou Qishan with his arm.
Zhou Qishan's fighting skills were indeed not as high as Tian Guangzhi's, but that does not mean his reaction speed was poor.
The two of them immediately started wrestling.
They didn't go all out; they were just playing around.
Then the two of them slapped each other a couple of times, and then clung to each other, whispering something to each other.
"Damn, how shameless!" Tian Guangzhi said.
After Zhou Qishan said something else, Tian Guangzhi nodded in agreement, saying that he had also noticed some of it.
Zhou Qishan rolled his eyes at him again.
