Chapter 254: Chapter 162: How Can 10 Years of Hard Study Compare

"Ah Fei, Sir had me return in such a hurry. Did something happen?"

Xiao Peng had floored it the day before, speeding all the way just to catch the last flight to the Imperial Capital. By the time he landed, it was already past midnight. He found a hotel near Shichahai and came to the courtyard home at the crack of dawn.

Just as he stepped through the gate... he found Chen Fei in the front courtyard, lending Aunt Tang a hand with breakfast.

Chen Fei looked at Xiao Peng’s disheveled hair, wiped his hands dry, and pulled him aside. "Sir really does have something important for you."

After he spoke, Chen Fei’s nose twitched. He noticed a faint odor coming from Xiao Peng and asked with a slight frown, "You came back without a change of clothes?"

Hearing this, Xiao Peng was taken aback. He lifted his arm for a sniff and caught a sour stench on himself. "Well, you were the one who called yesterday telling me to hurry back," he said, a bit embarrassed. "I left in such a rush that I didn’t bring anything."

"Go use my room to wash up first."

Xiao Peng wanted to ask what exactly was going on, but Chen Fei simply said, "You’ll find out the specifics when you see Sir," then turned and went back into the kitchen.

Seeing this, Xiao Peng had no choice but to go get washed up and change his clothes.

At 8:10 a.m., Su Chen leisurely made his way downstairs.

As soon as he reached the living room, he saw Chen Fei and Xiao Peng sitting on the sofa, chatting.

Su Chen was a little surprised; he hadn’t expected Xiao Peng to be back so quickly. It seemed he must have arrived last night.

He had just reached the landing of the staircase when the two of them spotted him.

"Sir," the two said in unison, quickly rising to their feet.

Su Chen gave a calm wave of his hand, his eyes scanning Xiao Peng up and down before he nodded in satisfaction.

"It looks like your time in Xilinhot served as good training. You seem much more confident than you used to be."

Of course, the confidence Su Chen mentioned wasn’t mere self-assurance. It meant that after this period of tempering, Xiao Peng could now shoulder real responsibility at work.

Xiao Peng flushed slightly at Su Chen’s praise. "It’s all thanks to your guidance, Sir!"

Su Chen smiled and tapped his right index finger in the air. He turned to Chen Fei beside him and teased, "Would you look at that? How long has it been? He’s already learned how to suck up."

At these words, not only Chen Fei but even Jiang Hui, who had just walked in to call Su Chen for breakfast, couldn’t help but laugh.

Only Xiao Peng was so embarrassed he wanted to dig a hole and bury himself in it.

"You’re here so early, you must not have eaten breakfast yet. Let’s eat together, then we can talk about why you’re here."
