Chapter 525: Chapter 499: Uncovering the Scars
Xiao Qian’s view was the same as Yu Minng’s. She believed in Liu Shuang’s capabilities and thought it was improbable that the misjudgment was a result of distraction. However, doubt still existed. It happened to be a good opportunity to investigate the matter within reason while treating Hu Meijing, so as to let the deceased rest in peace and the living be free from worry.
“Vice President Yu Minng, can youplete the special task I gave you?”
Xiao Qian had long wanted to say this sentence, feeling very pleased.
When she had nothing to do, she would imagine Xiao Qiang’s working style, especially enjoying watching his serious and tough demeanor, full of passion.
“What reward will Dr. Chen give me if Iplete it?” Yu Minng also liked her businesslike tone.
“I don’t mind having a one-on-one chat with you.”
Facing Yu Minng’s serious attempt to discredit her, Xiao Qian righteously refused.
“Don’t always think about taking people’s rewards when you do things, it’s vulgar!”
“One hour for twenty thousand, one second for five yuan and five cents?” This news had reached his ears, and his father had told him about it.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
“Cough, am I like you? You serve the people, I am in a market economy and free!”
“Alright, in order to have a private chat with you, I promise toplete the task!”
“I’ll be waiting for your news.”
Xiao Qian hung up the phone and pondered a little – why did it feel like there was something strange in his words, it sounded like a creepy uncle…

Xiao Qian was indeed a sharp person, and her guess soon came to fruition. Yu Minng’s thick-skinned attitude was truly breathtaking.
While Yu Minng was summarizing the materials, Xiao Qian was not idle. She apanied Hu Meijing for intensive treatment.
From initially not believing that Lone Wolf was already dead, toter bing heartbroken and despairing to ming herself, this series of psychological changes were all under Xiao Qian’s control. It took Xiao Qian three days toplete the first stage of treatment and make Hu Meijing believe that Lone Wolf was indeed gone.
ording to the n she and Professor Liu had studied, the treatment was divided into three stages, and the second stage was when Yu Minng came into y.
That day, Xiao Qian, feeling utterly disheartened, came with Hu Meijing, Professor Liu and Uncle Liu and took the car sent by Yu Minng to his and Liu Shuang’s old unit.
Before Yu Minng had returned home to take over thepany, he and his good brothers had been in this ce.
Yu Minng led Xiao Qian and Hu Meijing and others to the conference room.
In the conference room, Hu Meijing saw a group of people sitting inside, many of whom she knew, and their presence tore open old wounds.
Those seated here were Liu Shuang’s friends, and Rong Yuan had been brought back as well, sitting in the front row.
Most of the people here had drifted apart all over the world, and it took quite a bit of effort to gather them all together.
These people hade together again for the long-forgotten sad past. When they saw Xiao Qian leading Hu Meijing in, Rong Yuan became emotional, his hands clenched into fists and his eyes filled with anger but was restrained by a nce from Yu Minng.
Yu Minng had already held a meeting with everyone in advance, no matter who it was, no one was to express any personal emotion, just bring their ears and not their mouth.
Yu Minng stood in front of the projector, and on the speaker’s desk in the conference room was arge sand table.
Today, Xiao Qian had changed into a formal ck waist-pinching suit, looking very professional. The white silk scarf matched the ck professional outfit, showing respect for the deceased in its solemnity. She was able to handle various asions with ease and was not inferior in the least when standing in front of this room full of men.
Yu Minng’s gaze lingered on Xiao Qian for a few seconds, Xiao Qian nodded at him, and after making a gesture to let the iing people take their seats, Yu Minng formally began today’s special briefing.
“Among those present today are Liu Shuang’s family members, his friends, as well as leaders from his old unit. The purpose of gathering everyone here today is to reveal the truth of the incident back then and to do justice to the family and to Liu Shuang, who has passed away. Without further ado, let’s get straight to the point. Please look at the big screen.”
Yu Minng’s brief opening, straight to the point.
Hu Meijing sat with Xiao Qian, her emotions bing somewhat uncontroble when she saw so many people. It was Xiao Qian who had been holding her hand, giving her encouragement and support, preventing her from fainting.
Xiao Qian held her hand tightly, feeling the icy coldness of her palm.
On the big screen, the map from that year was restored. Everyone present had experienced the event in person. When they saw that heart-wrenching ce, they could hardly bear it in their hearts. It was there that their good brother had left, never to return.
Xiao Qian stared intently at Yu Minng. This was another time that she and he had intersected in an official setting, in the capacity of work. Yu Minng, full of masculinity, proceeded methodically to give everyone a brief introduction to the situation at that time.
All of this had been strictly filtered, with no unnecessary words spoken, but still allowing everyone to understand the situation at that time.
“After a detailed investigation, I havee to the following conclusion: Liu Shuang’s decision to inform and change the route temporarily on that day was not due to emotions at work, but rather a forced decision. Please look here.”
Yu Minng pointed to a spot on the map, “ording to local weather forecasts, it was the moldy rain season at that time. Comrade Liu Shuang had rich outdoor survival skills and judged that there would be heavy rain on that day, so he chose to changenes.”
“But he never made the decision to changenes temporarily before. We had been out in the rain before and never changed. Why did he change that day?!” Rong Yuan was the first to question.
Actually, many people had kept these words in their hearts and dared not say them. This was also why many people thought that Liu Shuang’s decision was emotional.
Rong Yuan’s doubt made Hu Meijing shrink back, and Xiao Qian could clearly feel the girl’s fear in the depths of her heart holding her hand.
Xiao Qian pulled out a handkerchief and handed it to Hu Meijing, who covered her mouth and sobbed softly. If it wasn’t for Xiao Qian’s prior appointment with her and plenty of advance psychological preparation, she would definitely have lost control of her emotions again.
Yu Minng was not surprised by Rong Yuan’s doubt and calmly scanned the room before beginning his exnation.
“It rained that day, proving Liu Shuang’s judgment urate. We will now focus on the original route.”
Yu Minng pointed to the map, “Following this route, what kind of phenomenon would ur if the mountain loosened due to increased soil moisture? Please look at the sand table, I have simted the soil humidity ording to the situation on that day, and calcted the weight of our people ording to the ratio, assuming that we followed the original route…”
Yu Minng ced a chip on the road, and it copsed instantly.
The scene fell silent.
“As you can see, this road has no way out. Once we go in, there is no way to retreat, and the entire team will be in danger. I havee to this conclusion after repeated calctions and discussions with geologists. Since a copse did not ur on the original route that year, this important reason was overlooked.”
There was no ident, not because they were lucky, but because Liu Shuang changed the route.
“How did you all know Lone Wolf? How did his code namee about?” Yu Minng asked.
“Because he was adept at creating life in harsh environments, he…” Rong Yuan couldn’t continue, choking up.
The others in the room also had red eyes, all of them the strongest men, but their hearts ached at the mention of their lost friend.
