Campus Cultivation Master-Chapter 351 - 0352: Great Tremor [Part 1]

Hearing Fan Xiaoxiao’s question, Cui Jingyan also pulled her back and said, "Xiaoxiao, don’t just ask anything!"

The elder’s identity was clearly very special; even the Secretary of the Provincial Committee of Yunxi, a governor-level official, was spoken of so casually by him, which showed just how extraordinary the elder’s identity was.

Such a person with a special status was not someone they could casually inquire about.

Fan Xiaoxiao, stopped by Cui Jingyan, stuck out her tongue prettily and said, "Grandpa, I won’t ask anymore, please don’t have me shot."

The elder in the traditional robe laughed heartily upon hearing Fan Xiaoxiao’s words and said, "Little girl, how wonderful it would be if you were my granddaughter. Having a granddaughter like you would certainly make me very happy. Unlike my grandsons, who always treat me so formally every day."

Fan Xiaoxiao said, "Grandpa, I have my own grandpa, and my grandpa is an archaeologist, you know?"

"Who is your grandpa?" the elder in the traditional robe asked.

Fan Xiaoxiao said, "My grandpa is Fan Ting’an."

The elder in the traditional robe, upon hearing Fan Xiaoxiao’s words, smiled and said, "So, you’re Fan Ting’an’s granddaughter. I really wouldn’t have known if you hadn’t told me. You don’t resemble your grandpa at all."

"Grandpa, you know my grandpa?" asked Fan Xiaoxiao, curious.

The elder in the traditional robe said, "Your grandpa is a founding figure in modern archaeology; many archaeological theories were proposed and established by him. His contributions to Huaxia’s archaeology are unparalleled."

Fan Xiaoxiao, blinking, said, "But Grandpa, I’ve never heard my grandpa mention any of this to me. I always thought my grandpa was just an ordinary archaeologist, a university professor."

The elder in the traditional robe said, "That’s why I said I really wouldn’t have known you are his granddaughter if you hadn’t mentioned it."

Feeling a bit embarrassed Fan Xiaoxiao said, "Grandpa, I’m just outgoing. But in reality, I’m very low-key."

The elder in the traditional robe laughed heartily, clearly in very high spirits.

After a bout of laughter, the elder in the traditional robe, seeing Cui Jingyan’s anxious expression, said, "Girl, give me your phone. I’ll call He Zhen right now."

The call was quickly made, and upon connection, the elder in the traditional robe said, "Old Man He, do you still remember who I am?"

He Zhen was taken aback when he heard the elder in the traditional robe’s words, then responded, "How come you’ve decided to call me?"

The elder in the traditional robe then proceeded to give He Zhen a detailed account of the situation there.

Upon hearing everything, He Zhen stood up from his chair and said, "You’re telling me Brother Chu has been arrested in Yunxi and is now being framed?"

The elder in the traditional robe confirmed, "Yes, that’s the situation for now. I know the Secretary of the Provincial Committee of Yunxi is your student. Call him and have him handle this. After all, I am just a retired old man, and the situation here in Yunxi is somewhat complex, as you understand."

He Zhen said, "I will give instructions regarding this matter, but you also need to balance some things."

The elder in the traditional robe assured, "Don’t worry, I will have it arranged."

He Zhen inquired, "What’s the current situation with Brother Chu?"

The elder in the traditional robe replied, "He should be safe for now."

He Zhen said, "I’ll have Jianguo call Sun Xing."

The elder in the traditional robe said, "I’ve already told your kid, he should be calling Sun Xing right now. But still, it’s necessary for you to talk to Sun Xing."

He Zhen stated, "I know what to do. But this time, consider it a favor you owe me."

The elder in the traditional robe paused, then laughed heartily and said, "Alright, consider it a favor I owe you. I owe a lot over these years, not to mention this one."

He Zhen snorted coldly, "You’re aware you owe me a lot. Good to know you have some conscience left."

The elder in the traditional robe, with such light-hearted conversation, had decided on affairs concerning an entire province. This made Cui Jingyan and the others even more aware of the extraordinary nature of the situation.

After hanging up, He Zhen called Sun Xing.

Sun Xing, who had just finished talking to He Jianguo in his office, picked up the call from his teacher with due respect.

"Hello, teacher," Sun Xing said, with utmost reverence upon answering the call.

He Zhen wasted no time on pleasantries and got straight to the point with Sun Xing, saying, "The man who’s been arrested is my dear friend as well as my benefactor. With this matter, regardless of who’s involved, do not hesitate or have any reservations. I want you to thoroughly investigate this."

"Rest assured, teacher, I will do my utmost to thoroughly investigate," Sun Xing immediately assured, without any hesitation.

He Zhen was very satisfied with Sun Xing’s attitude. Although He Zhen was just a retired principal, he was still very clear on matters of national importance.

Yunxi was located on the border with a somewhat complex situation, and not everything could be fully decided by Sun Xing alone.

He Zhen paused, then continued, "Don’t have any reservations. Old Man Huang is also involved in this matter. I just spoke with him. I’ll have him call my godson, you just carry out your duty boldly. Don’t worry about the rest. Yunxi might be on the border, but it is by no means a lawless land. You, as the Secretary, must have absolute control."

Upon hearing He Zhen’s words, Sun Xing was startled and said, "Teacher, are you saying the old Chief is also involved?"

He Zhen confirmed, "Yes. So don’t have any reservations, just do as you see fit. You don’t need to take the heat for the rest. As I said, within Huaxia, there is no place beyond the law."

Sun Xing responded, "I understand, teacher. Thank you."

After He Zhen hung up, Sun Xing could hardly contain his excitement.

Since arriving in Yunxi, even as a governor, he found himself constrained in certain matters.

But now he finally had the opportunity to resolve all these factors restraining him at once. So he needed to plan carefully and not waste the chance He Zhen had given him.

After thinking for five minutes, Sun Xing had his secretary come in, then directly ordered, "Have the chief of the Provincial Public Security Department, the criminal investigation personnel, and the comrades from the Disciplinary Committee head to the Yunxi Jade Mall administration office immediately. There’s a young man named Chu Feng there; ensure his safety at all costs. Also, notify the other comrades from the Provincial Committee to get ready to go to the Yunxi Tianhua Hotel."

"Yes! Secretary, I’ll notify them now," the secretary agreed and went to make the arrangements.

Meanwhile, at the Tianhua Hotel where Ma Hong and his party were staying, a group of thugs had also rushed to their floor.

"Boss, Master Miao’s men have burst in from outside, and it seems they mean us harm," a man rushed in and reported to Ma Hong.
