by REX-NOVELISTSSeeing Lin Qianhuan’s satisfaction, Miao Xiaofeng walked forward with a smile, “As the building manager, this is all I should do. Do you need me to take you to see the other floors?”
Lin Qianhuan nodded, “Okay.”
The group continued to walk up the stairs, and there was nothing unusual until they reached the 9th floor.
“Well done, the quality of life of the residents is the top priority. As the building manager, you should do your best. But don’t do anything treacherous or cut corners. You agree, right?”
Miao Xiaofeng smiled obsequiously, “Of course, as the head of this building, I should naturally put the residents first in everything.”
After speaking, he winked at the group of people behind him. They understood and immediately began to say good things about Miao Xiaofeng to Lin Qianhuan.
“Base Chief, you don’t know, our building manager often braves the cold to visit the floors and investigate the people’s conditions. Sometimes he even distributes his own supplies to the elderly, weak, women, and children in the building. We are all moved by it.”
“Yes, yes, I had a cold some time ago, and the building manager gave me a box of cold medicine.”
“The building manager usually gives his own share of potatoes, sweet potatoes, and firewood to the residents of the building, preferring to go hungry himself rather than treating everyone unfairly. We are really fortunate to live under the leadership of Manager Miao!”
Miao Xiaofeng smiled modestly, “Everyone is too kind. As the building manager, I have my own responsibilities and obligations. This is all I should do. As long as everyone lives happily, that is the greatest recognition for me.”
Lin Qianhuan stood there silently watching them act, the sarcastic smile on her lips growing deeper and deeper.
She looked around at the situation as if unintentionally, and then said, “Where is Zhou Ruoyun? Why haven’t I seen her?”
Miao Xiaofeng hesitated, as if he had some unspeakable secret.
Lin Qianhuan frowned, “If you have something to say, just say it. What’s the point of being so secretive?”
As if having made some kind of decision, Miao Xiaofeng sighed heavily, his tone helpless and heartbroken.
“I didn’t want to mention this to you, but now that you’ve asked, I have to tell the truth. I was working with Zhou Ruoyun as the building manager. I took care of her in every way possible and took her to inspect the building every day. But who would have thought that not only would she not appreciate it, but she would also stay at home every day and refuse to work. Not only that, but the one-third of the supplies that you gave her were all held by her, and she refused to distribute them to the residents of the building. Alas, I really have no choice, so I simply ignored her.”
Lin Qianhuan’s face was hidden under the mask, and the others couldn’t see her expression, so they could only silently guess what she was thinking.
She opened her mouth softly, but her voice was faint and without any fluctuations.
“Where is Zhou Ruoyun?”
No one present said anything, but their eyes all fell on Miao Xiaofeng.
He stepped forward and lowered his head somewhat shamefully.
“Base Chief, it’s all my fault, please punish me! Zhou Ruoyun embezzled the supplies and ran away with the things in her space. Her whereabouts are unknown, and I can’t find her.”
Miao Xiaofeng looked regretful, “It’s all my fault for not keeping an eye on her, which is why she stole so many things from Building 72. Base Chief, please punish me!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the people behind him immediately spoke up to defend him.
“Base Chief, this has nothing to do with our building manager! That Zhou Ruoyun is lazy and treacherous. The building manager has repeatedly tried to stop and persuade her, but it’s all in vain.”
“The building manager is sincerely good to us, but that Zhou Ruoyun only knows how to indulge in pleasure and has not fulfilled her responsibility as a building manager at all. She even stole supplies and ran away, which is unforgivable!”
“Manager Miao is innocent. We have all seen the energy and effort he has put into Building 72!”
Lin Qianhuan looked at Miao Xiaofeng quietly, not missing the fleeting smug smile on the corner of his lips.
If she hadn’t communicated with Zhou Ruoyun in advance, she would have been deceived by this group of people.
These people who were praising Miao Xiaofeng were his subordinates and accomplices in his oppression of the survivors in Building 72.
They fabricated a dream paradise in order to deceive Lin Qianhuan and take the opportunity to make her lower her guard.
He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world. Who wouldn’t say good things about a building manager who is so considerate of the people?
Lin Qianhuan curled her lips, “I didn’t expect this Zhou Ruoyun to be so incompetent. In that case, you will be fully responsible for the entire Building 72 from now on.”
Miao Xiaofeng restrained his smile and nodded heavily, “Base Chief, don’t worry, I will definitely not let you down!”
Lin Qianhuan straightened her scarf, “Okay, then let’s continue to look upwards.”
Hearing her say this, everyone present was obviously a little anxious.
Especially Miao Xiaofeng.
He stepped forward and blocked the stairwell, his smile slightly stiff.
“Base Chief, Building 72 has a full 18 floors. If you look at each household like this, it will definitely waste a lot of time. How about this, let’s go to 102 and chat with the residents inside? Everyone lives in the same building, and they are very familiar with the situation in Building 72. Let them tell you about the recent events in the building?”
As he spoke, Miao Xiaofeng raised his hand and made a gesture of invitation to Lin Qianhuan. Because he was too nervous, a few drops of cold sweat even oozed from his forehead.
Lin Qianhuan chuckled and did not move.
“Why is Manager Miao so nervous? I just happen to have a lot of free time today, and it’s not a problem to inspect the entire building. Besides, seeing is believing, I have to see it with my own eyes to be sure, don’t you think?”
