Fu Zhong did not continue making things difficult for Ye Yuan over this issue.
The reason he had joked around was also to build a good relationship with Ye Yuan as quickly as possible.
Otherwise, was a Blue Island Officer really going to lower himself and curry favor with some kid?
He clearly remembered that before coming here, Old Xu had specifically reminded him that he absolutely had to appease this guy in front of him.
He still clearly remembered Old Xu's exact words:
"That kid is as stubborn as a mule. Don't provoke him; stroke him the right way.
I guarantee he'll work harder than a production brigade mule.
Who knows? He might even be able to help you out big time."
Fu Zhong did not dare forget Old Xu's words.
So, as soon as he arrived on Blue Island and helped Ye Yuan tie up the loose ends,
he had called Xu Hang and asked him to invite Ye Yuan out for a proper chat and to build some rapport.
This was also where he was smarter than Lan Xianghui.
He knew all too well how much Old Xu valued this young man.
To put it bluntly, now that he had left Old Xu's side, Ye Yuan was an indispensable path if he wanted to get back into Old Xu's sight.
Hadn't this guy treated visits to Old Xu's home like a shopping spree?
It was not enough for him to eat there—he even packed bag after bag to take home.
Fu Zhong had followed Old Xu for ten years. Other than Ye Yuan, he had never seen anyone else receive such treatment from Old Xu.
This was also the main reason he could lower himself more readily than Lan Xianghui and befriend Ye Yuan.
