The atmosphere at the Chengdong station this morning was somewhat eerie.

The cleaning at the station is done on a rotating shift system, and Lu Yuan happened to be on duty today.

But Lu Yuan hasn't cleaned the house for many days.

Because the person in his group was named Lin Yu.

A top-notch sycophant, Brother Lu's number one henchman, and someone who always treats people to noodles when he's short on work.

Under normal circumstances, cleaning should only take ten minutes, not because the work is done quickly.

It's because the site itself wasn't a clean place.

With people coming and going, a rough cleaning is enough.

But today, Lin Yu spent half an hour cleaning here, wiping the floor every time someone passed by.

While working, he kept glancing towards the door, expectantly waiting for someone to arrive.

But it was already nine o'clock, and Lu Yuan still hadn't arrived.

This in itself is the biggest anomaly.

What's even more unusual is that he overheard the station manager making a phone call when he arrived this morning.

"That guy on the sidewalk is pretty nice, so what went wrong? Shall I bring two bottles of good wine and come over to your place tonight?"

These are the stationmaster's exact words, which he overheard.

He couldn't hear the reply on the other end of the phone clearly, but he could see the stationmaster's expression perfectly.

His already dark face was almost blackened to the point of looking like a honeycomb briquette.

Lin Yu prided himself on being a clever person, and after listening to this conversation, he could guess most of what was going on.

Did the stationmaster's job fall through because of the long and difficult road?

Because he didn't know the specifics of the matter, he decided to stay at the station a little longer, still with some questions in mind.

This wait lasted for half an hour.

Su Ming was also among those who heard the news.

That is, the person who joined the Chengdong station, originally wanting to compete for the station manager position.

Seeing that the position of stationmaster was difficult to secure, he simply took over Lin Yu's position.

That is, the position of the sycophant king.

"Why hasn't Brother Lu arrived yet? Should we give him a call and ask?" Su Ming muttered softly.

"Don't bother Brother Lu any longer." Lin Yu issued a direct order, staring warily at Su Ming.

If Brother Lu fails to become the station manager, the person in front of him is most likely to turn against him.

I have no influence over the selection of the station manager.

Do you think I can't keep an eye on you, kid?

Why are you looking at me like that?

"Even if Brother Lu comes, don't mention this."

"Ask what's wrong?"

"Don't let me know you asked, or we'll have another free-fighting match."

Lin Yu stared fiercely at Su Ming, making him feel uneasy.

As they were talking, Lu Yuan had just stepped into the station gate.

Normally, Lu Yuan would be putting on his clothes and setting off by now.

But he didn't; instead, he casually greeted the two of them.

Then he found a chair, took out his phone, and soon the voice came through the speaker: "Understanding why Bald Qiang is King Gigi's white moonlight."

This unusual behavior left the two of them in a dilemma: whether to leave or stay.

Su Ming wanted to ask, but he glanced at it sideways.

They noticed that Lin Yu was moving his wrists and ankles, clearly preparing for battle.

As a result, the atmosphere at the site became even stranger.

"Brother Lu, why aren't you taking any orders today?" Su Ming asked cautiously, glancing at Lin Yu as he spoke, signaling him not to ask the most crucial question.

He was afraid that Lin Yu, that brute, would punch him right away.

"Oh, I'm waiting for the station manager to contact me."

"The station manager is in his office inside."

"Oh, I'll go find him after I finish watching this video." Lu Yuan didn't even look up.

"Brother Lu, nothing happened, right?" Su Ming was really curious, but he was also a little wary of the brute next to him, so he could only resort to this kind of aimless attack.

"You two aren't cancelling your orders just to chat with me, right?"

Lu Yuan glanced at them and gestured for them to get back to work and stop bothering him.

Seeing this unhurried attitude, Su Ming couldn't stand it any longer and spoke directly:

"Brother Lu, I think I heard you're the station manager..."

Before he could finish speaking, it was as if a thunderclap exploded in his ears!

"That's exactly what I was waiting for, you scoundrel, take this punch!"

Su Ming had already made preparations in advance, raising his hand to defend.

But he didn't need to defend himself; someone else did it for him.

Lu Yuan stood up at some point, reached out to stop Lin Yu, and said with a smile, "I'm afraid I won't be able to be the station chief anymore."

The atmosphere became even more silent.

Surprise was hidden in both of their eyes.

I was not only surprised that the stationmaster's story actually existed, but also surprised by Lu Yuan's composure.

But there are things even more reassuring than this.

Lu Yuan tilted his head meaningfully and looked at Su Ming: "Why don't you give it a try?"

"No, no, I wouldn't dare."

Even if he dared to think it, he wouldn't dare to say it.

He was afraid that if he told anyone, some brute would climb through his window that night.

"Alright, get back to work."

Lu Yuan didn't forget to type four big characters on his phone: "Pure bullshit."

Then he looked up at the stationmaster who came out of the office after hearing the noise.

...

Sunlight falls on my shoulders.

Lu Yuan shook his head, sat comfortably at the station entrance, and felt the warm sunlight.

The old stationmaster was completely different from him.

"Xiao Lu, to be honest, I started out as a rider at the East City station. Many veteran riders have worked with me for several years, and I hope they can have a comfortable job too."

The stationmaster's face was filled with worry.

In fact, there was clearly controversy surrounding Lu Yuan's appointment as stationmaster.

After all, he is too young and inexperienced.

However, many things cannot be judged by common sense.

There's a saying that a dying person's words are kind, because when a person is about to leave, they want to leave a good impression on others.

Although the old stationmaster was not dead, he wanted to leave a good impression on everyone before he passed away.

Appointing Lu Yuan as station manager is clearly beneficial to the entire station.

He didn't mind doing a favor, since they would all be meeting again in the future.

"I just asked around for you, but it seems a big shot has already spoken up."

Actually, the old stationmaster was also puzzled as to how such a small matter could involve such an important person.

"Don't worry about it. Instead of wasting time, let your sister-in-law put on some face masks for you. Your face is so dark that you could play Bao Zheng if you tattooed a moon on it."

"How come you're not bothered at all?"

Even the station manager couldn't figure it out.

How can one remain calm and collected when the journey is so long?

All that hard work has been for nothing, why don't I get angry?

"Hey stationmaster, have you ever watched 'Boonie Bears'?"

"I watched two episodes with my son."

"Every time Bald Qiang is about to successfully cut down a tree, those two stinky bears have to come out and cause trouble."

"Isn't the bear the main character?"

The old stationmaster was getting on in years and didn't know much about "Boonie Bears," so he scratched his head, looking a bit puzzled.

"It doesn't matter who the main character is." Lu Yuan closed his eyes, feeling the sunlight streaming down his face, and said with a smile, "Anyway, those two stinky bears will always jump out to cause trouble, but as soon as Bald Qiang leaves Bear Ridge, those two stinky bears will always find all sorts of excuses to go find him."

Why is that?

"I don't know, why don't you ask that stinky bear yourself later?"

Lu Yuan smiled and stretched out his hand, pointing to the entrance of the alley.

There was a furtive, long-haired figure there.
