Chapter 747: Chapter 747: The Old Man’s House Was Robbed

Gu Peng raised the notebook and pen in his hand again, "This is not a habit, it’s something Wang Tianyu told me, he said every instruction Mr. Lin gives is very important, and asked me to remember them clearly. Mr. Lin, is there something wrong with doing this?"

So it was Wang Tianyu who told him.

Lin Chuxia secretly breathed a sigh of relief, not even sure why she felt relieved.

"No, this habit is good, keep it up."

After saying that, she continued discussing work matters.

"You first check if it’s easy to get asphalt; if there are no issues with the asphalt, handle the asphalt road repairs personally. Uncle Sun’s connections may not be as extensive as ours. If asphalt is hard to procure, brick roads or cement roads will do. There’s only one standard: speed. Ensure completion before the rainy season as much as possible."

"Okay, I’ll handle it right away."

Gu Peng jotted down his notes simply, stood up, and left the office.

Just as he walked out, the phone in Lin Chuxia’s office rang.

Picking up the phone, she heard Su Wensong’s voice. After listening to his message, she stood up abruptly, "Alright, I’ll head back to An City immediately."

After hanging up, she called Qin Yang to inform him before grabbing her bag and heading out.

Gu Peng had just started the jeep, not yet having left.

Lin Chuxia opened the passenger door and got in. "I’m going with you back to An City to handle some matters. Let’s first go to my mentor’s place and pick him up."

After picking up Old Master He, the three of them headed to Ancheng County. On the way, Lin Chuxia explained the situation to the old master.

Old Master He had been staying in Yan City for the past two years, with the house in An City being looked after by Su Wensong.

A few days ago, while passing by, Su Wensong noticed that the lock on the door seemed tampered with.

Upon entering the courtyard, he discovered that the old master’s home had been robbed.

Generally, thieves break in to ransack and take valuable items.

But this theft was thorough: tables and cabinets were gone, though the rest of the belongings were strewn everywhere.

When Lin Chuxia first met Old Master He, his house was practically empty, with no decent furniture, save for a broken bed cabinet and tables with missing legs.

Later, Lin Chuxia apprenticed under Old Master He, jokingly promising to help him in his old age, but she didn’t skimp on this commitment.

She furnished his room with new furniture and household items, even making new bedding.

When moving to Yan City, everything here was newly furnished, only his clothes and valuables being taken along.

Originally, it was thought that the old master might visit from time to time during festivals, but unexpectedly, it caught the attention of thieves.

The furniture was almost brand new, and it had cost Lin Chuxia a considerable sum when she bought it, with Su Wensong assisting in the purchase.

Thus, Su Wensong immediately went to the police station to report the crime.

The exact timing of the theft was unclear, but moving such large items would surely create some commotion.
