CHAPTER 30

Unit X is located in the eastern section of Minsheng Road. It is a three-story white tube building built in the 1990s. Compared with the surrounding high-rise buildings, it is indeed a bit out of place. But don't be fooled by the shabby appearance. The location is definitely a prime location in Fuzhou. On this Minsheng Road, which is less than three kilometers long, core resources such as government agencies, the People's Hospital, the Big Four Banks, and key middle schools are crowded together. There are also businesses of all sizes, and there are three large shopping malls alone! Unit X does not have many staff. There are only about twenty people in four departments plus security guards and drivers. At around eight o'clock in the morning, people who went to work began to walk into the yard one after another. The security guard, Old Chen, was wearing a shabby security uniform and standing at the door with a remote control key in his hand. This was his busiest time. "Chief Qian came so early today. The car was washed very clean."

"Hey, Da Liu, you just bought this electric car, right? Where did you buy it and how much did it cost? I'll get one in a couple of days!"

"Director Li, there's a good parking space on the east side of the building. I'll reserve it for you."

... The railings at the door had long been replaced with automatic ones. Most of the people who came at this time were from the unit. The vehicle information was recorded in the computer, and the railings were automatically raised. The remote control key in Old Chen's hand was just a decoration. However, he was still used to standing at the door and chatting and greeting people. This was his habit for many years. Another security guard in the unit, Old Jiang, was not like this. He always stayed in the guard room listening to novels and rarely greeted people in the unit. He was a taciturn person. Therefore, in the unit, Old Chen's popularity was much better than Old Jiang. A black Mercedes-Benz stopped at the door. Old Chen took a look. The license plate number was unfamiliar and he didn't recognize it. However, this car was probably not cheap. Although Old Chen didn't know much about cars, he knew that Mercedes-Benz was a good car. Moreover, the Mercedes-Benz in front of him didn't look like the one that Xiao Ma, who had just come to the unit, bought. It looked like a small potato. This car was wide and long, and it felt more advanced than the Audi driven by the big boss of the unit! "Whose car is this? It can't be from some big boss. Isn't it a bit early to come to work at this time? The big boss hasn't come yet."

Old Chen was muttering to himself. Just then, a small white electric bike drove in from the non-motorized vehicle entrance next to him. The girl on the bike greeted Old Chen with a smile. "Morning, Master Chen!"

Ma Xiaoxiao waved her hand and said with a full smile. "Xiaoxiao, did you buy egg-filled pancakes again? Food from outside is not hygienic, so you should eat less."

Old Chen looked at the breakfast hanging on Ma Xiaoxiao's handlebars and said cheerfully, "Ah, there's nothing I can do. I can't make it myself, and I can't get up in the morning, so I can only make do with this."

Ma Xiaoxiao sighed and said. Just as the two were chatting, the Mercedes-Benz Maybach stopped at the door and the right rear door opened. Old Chen and Ma Xiaoxiao were both a little curious, and turned their heads to look at the Mercedes-Benz car, wanting to see who came out. Facing luxury cars, everyone has such curiosity. Although they know that they definitely don't know the people inside, they still want to see what the rich man sitting in the luxury car looks like. Ma Xiaoxiao recognized that the car was a Mercedes-Benz Maybach at a glance. Although her family background is ordinary, she knows a lot about luxury cars and luxury goods. It is precisely because she knows the value of this car that she is more curious about the people inside. You know, although Fu City is a third- or fourth-tier city in size and there are many rich people, it is rare to see people who can sit in this kind of car to come to their marginal units. Xu Fuhai got out of the car, saw Lin Mixue rolled down the window and looked at him, and said to her: "You will register with the security guard Lao Chen later, and you can drive directly into the yard next time."

Lin Mixue nodded, drove a little further, parked the car outside, and got out of the car. "Old Xu? Why is it you?"

Ma Xiaoxiao has sharp eyes. Even though Xu Fuhai had changed his clothes, she recognized him the moment he got off the car. When the security guard Lao Chen saw Xu Fuhai, his eyes widened! He never thought that the person who got off the big Mercedes was Xu Fuhai, the honest man in the unit who usually had no sense of existence! He has been working in this unit for more than ten years. In his impression, Xu Fuhai has always been riding that broken electric bike, rain or shine, and he wears the same clothes all year round, basically never changing. Such a person, now actually sits in a big Mercedes, and wears such decent clothes, which completely subverts his previous cognition! "Isn't this Fuhai? Whose car did you take?"

Old Chen walked up to Xu Fuhai and asked in surprise, "Xiaoxiao, you're here so early. Master Chen, this is the car I just bought. I'll ask my driver to register with you and record the access control system."

Xu Fuhai said with a smile. At this moment, Lin Mixue parked the car and came over. "Missue, this is Master Chen from our unit. You will go with him to register the car. Oh, by the way, help me get a cigarette from the trunk."

Xu Fuhai ordered. "Okay, Mr. Xu."

Lin Mixue nodded obediently and turned around to get a cigarette. The scene in front of her stunned Ma Xiaoxiao and the security guard Lao Chen! The two even suspected that their eyes and ears were hallucinating! "Lao Xu, did I hear it right? That beautiful woman just called you Mr. Xu? When did you become a big boss? You even drive a Mercedes-Benz Maybach!"

Ma Xiaoxiao parked her electric scooter, took a few steps forward and came to Xu Fuhai, asking in surprise. She had just started working in this unit for less than a year, and sat opposite Xu Fuhai. In her impression, this old Xu was simply the least noticeable person in the unit. He was dressed in ordinary clothes, honest, dedicated to his work, hardworking, not fond of joining in the fun, and rarely participated in departmental dinners. If there was only one thing that made a little impression on people, it was his super awesome wife. Ma Xiaoxiao remembered that once she sent him a voice message at night, in fact, they were talking about work, but her wife immediately called to ask who she was and why she sent a voice message to her husband at night, which scared Ma Xiaoxiao so much that she never dared to send him WeChat messages again. It was such a man, who came back from a two-day vacation, and unexpectedly turned into a Mercedes-Benz Maybach, and a beautiful driver was driving. What was going on? Ma Xiaoxiao remembered that last Friday, Old Xu received a call from his wife, saying that she wanted a divorce. At that time, including Ma Xiaoxiao, several colleagues in the office did not take it seriously, because this kind of thing happened to Lao Xu too many times. However, after only two or three days of not seeing each other, Xu Fuhai seemed to have become a different person. If it weren't for the fact that she had seen that face for more than a year and was too familiar, Ma Xiaoxiao would have doubted whether the person in front of her looked like another person of Xu Fuhai! Looking at the surprised expressions of the two people, Xu Fuhai smiled slightly. "What big boss? She just called him that for fun. Now you're a bachelor, right? You have to be nicer to yourself when you live alone? I've been riding that little electric bike for too long, and the battery is not working well. It's always out of power, so I changed it."

Xu Fuhai explained with a smile. But it would be better if he didn't explain. This explanation made Ma Xiaoxiao feel very confused. Just because the electric car ran out of power, he directly changed it to a Mercedes-Benz Maybach? Is this what they call being nice to yourself? Ma Xiaoxiao wanted to say that she also wanted to be nice to herself, but she was a poor person and didn't have the conditions. "Okay, Mr. Xu, oh no, Mr. Xu, you are too scary. Changing the car directly to a Mercedes-Benz Maybach is like changing a shotgun to a cannon, oh no, it should be changing to a missile!"

Ma Xiaoxiao said with an exaggerated expression. "Come on, what Mr. Xu? I told you I was just calling you that for fun. Just call me Old Xu like before."

Xu Fuhai said with a smile as he took the soft Zhonghua cigarette from Lin Mixue's hand and stuffed it directly into Master Chen's hand. "Master Chen, take it and smoke it. I don't smoke much, and I'm afraid it will go bad if I leave it for a long time!"

Xu Fuhai said with a smile. "Oh, Fuhai, this is... this is not okay, these cigarettes are expensive, I can't take them, you should keep them for yourself."

Looking at the cigarette in his hand, Master Chen was so scared that he quickly declined. "Old Chen, why are you being so polite to me? I've already said I don't smoke. This is a gift from someone else. It's just sitting there anyway. Just think of it as helping me digest it."

Xu Fuhai said with a smile. "Hey, this... this is so embarrassing, this is so embarrassing."

Master Chen said this while holding the soft Zhonghua in his hand, but he was reluctant to take it back. He thought to himself, since he already has a big Mercedes, he wouldn't care about the cigarette. After refusing twice, Master Chen accepted it. He happily took the cigarette to the security room and put it in the drawer. Then he enthusiastically asked Lin Mixue to help register the vehicle. Xu Fuhai didn't care anymore and let Lin Mixue deal with the security guard, Master Chen, while he and Ma Xiaoxiao walked side by side towards the unit. Along the way, Ma Xiaoxiao was still curious and asked questions. Xu Fuhai chatted with her from time to time, and he just told her about some unimportant things directly. Anyway, he didn't plan to keep a low profile. Sooner or later, people would know that he was rich. In this case, what was there to not say? When he arrived at the office, he unexpectedly found that Director Zhou had arrived first. He was not so active before. Xu Fuhai's office is in two small suites, one inside and one outside. Four people work together in the larger room outside. Xu Fuhai and Ma Xiaoxiao sit opposite each other. There are two tables with Li Jie, the finance manager, and Zhang Mingzhe. However, there are still ten minutes before work starts, and neither of them has arrived yet. Xu Fuhai sat down at his seat, habitually took the teacup and wanted to make a cup of tea, but unexpectedly Ma Xiaoxiao took the teacup attentively and said with a smile, "Brother Xu, let me do it."

Xu Fuhai was a little surprised, but thinking of the scene at the door just now, he smiled and said nothing, letting her take the teacup. Director Zhou in the inner room saw this scene and frowned. "Brother Xu, your tea."

Ma Xiaoxiao placed the brewed tea next to Xu Fuhai, then picked up the rag to help him clean the office. "Ma Xiaoxiao, come here!"

Director Zhou in the inner room called out. "Okay Director Zhou."

When Ma Xiaoxiao heard her leader calling her, she quickly stopped what she was doing and walked quickly into the inner room.
