Chapter 156: It is easy to change the country, but it is difficult to change one’s nature
After receiving the order, Zhao Tianshan took off running towards the nursery.
He walked hurriedly.
Summer was at this moment intently tending to the seedlings that had already sprouted.
He carefully watered and fertilized each of his seedlings.
Suddenly, he heard a series of hurried footsteps approaching.
Turning around, he saw Zhao Tianshan running towards him, covered in sweat.
"Engineer Xia, something terrible has happened!"
"Something terrible has happened at the camp!"
Zhao Tianshan said, panting.
Xia Tian frowned, put down his tools, and asked.
"What happened? Don't worry, tell me slowly."
Zhao Tianshan calmed his breathing and began to speak.
"Mr. Xia, I don't know exactly what happened either."
"Before I arrived, it seemed that Wu Yansheng had beaten Feng Cheng."
"Qin Xuemei and Meng Yue should know what happened."
After hearing this, Xia Tian's expression became very serious.
He patted the dirt off his hands, turned around, and followed Zhao Tianshan toward the camp.
He felt very heavy-hearted throughout the journey.
"That Wu Yansheng is a real rotten apple, he's ruined a whole pot of good soup."
Although Xia Tian didn't know what had happened, her feelings towards Wu Yansheng had plummeted to rock bottom.
It seems necessary to take advantage of today's incident to teach Wu Yansheng a lesson.
Even if Feng Cheng was in the wrong, he still had to stand by Feng Cheng's side.
Who told Xia Tian to be known for siding with justice rather than his own family?
When the two returned to the camp, the atmosphere was still very tense.
Yu Zhenglai and Qu He stood in the middle, looking at everyone with serious expressions.
Feng Cheng's lips were still stained with blood, and his eyes were filled with anger and resentment.
Wu Yansheng, supported by Da Kui and Sui Zhichao, kept his head down, not daring to look directly into the eyes of the crowd.
Qin Xuemei and Meng Yue stood aside, their faces full of guilt and unease.
Summer walked up to the crowd, her gaze sweeping across each person's face.
The scene fell silent immediately, and everyone looked at him, seemingly awaiting his verdict.
"What exactly is going on?"
Summer's voice is deep and powerful.
Qin Xuemei was the first to step forward and recounted the whole story in detail.
Her voice trembled slightly as she finished speaking.
"Commander Xia, it's all my fault. If I hadn't grabbed Comrade Feng Cheng's clothes..."
"Comrade Wu Yansheng will not misunderstand, much less lay a hand on anyone..."
After listening to Qin Xuemei's words, Xia Tian had a general idea of what was going on.
"Comrade Wu Yansheng, is what Comrade Qin Xuemei said true?"
Upon hearing Xia Tian's question, Wu Yansheng raised his head and stammered.
"Commander Xia, I... I acted impulsively. It was my fault. I shouldn't have hit someone."
"I'm sorry, I was wrong!"
Xia Tian looked at Wu Yansheng, then at Feng Cheng, and spoke.
"Tell me, where did you go wrong?"
Wu Yansheng listened to Xia Tian's words and didn't know how to respond for a moment.
"I……"
"I……"
Wu Yansheng stammered for a long time but couldn't manage to fart.
Seeing Wu Yansheng's cowardly appearance, Xia Tian was immediately filled with anger.
"Feng Cheng, are you alright?"
Xia Tian glanced at the bloodstains at the corner of Feng Cheng's mouth, which were still wet.
He sat down next to Feng Cheng and asked him a question.
At this moment, Xia Tian's desire to punish Wu Yansheng reached its peak.
You can bully Feng Cheng, but no one else can!
Feng Cheng shook his head gently. Although there was still a wound on the corner of his mouth, his voice was filled with stubbornness.
"Xia Gong, I'm fine, it's just that this punch came out of nowhere."
Xia Tian patted Feng Cheng on the shoulder, stood up, and looked intently at Wu Yansheng.
"Wu Yansheng, you don't even know where you went wrong. Your apology is really perfunctory."
"This is Saihanba, and we are all here to plant trees."
"I'm not here to vent my personal emotions or create conflict."
"The punch you threw today hit more than just Feng Cheng's body."
“You’ve slapped my face, and you’ve slapped the face of all the tree planters in Saihanba.”
"It also boosts the unity and morale of our entire team!"
Wu Yansheng lowered his head, his face flushed.
He gripped the hem of his clothes tightly with both hands, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
After Xia Tian finished speaking, he ignored Wu Yansheng and continued.
"On this Saihanba, each of us shoulders a great mission."
"The conditions here are harsh, and there are many difficulties."
"What we need is mutual support and mutual trust, not unfounded suspicion and physical violence."
“If you can’t even control your own emotions, you won’t be able to adapt to communal living here.”
"Then I think you have absolutely no need to stay in Saihanba!"
Yu Zhenglai and Qu He nodded silently to Xia Tian, expressing their deep agreement with her words.
Yu Zhenglai then added.
"Xia is right, we are a group, a whole."
"Any behavior that undermines unity will not be tolerated."
"Wu Yansheng, you must deeply recognize your mistakes today and make a profound self-criticism."
Wu Yansheng gritted his teeth, still feeling unconvinced.
However, the situation is beyond his control now. If he doesn't back down, he's really afraid that Xia Tian will take him down from the dam.
Then all his previous plans would be in vain.
"Commander Xia, Director Yu, I know I was wrong."
"I shouldn't have acted impulsively, and I shouldn't have hit someone based on my own assumptions."
"I am willing to accept any punishment and will write a profound self-criticism."
"I promise I won't make the same mistake again."
Although Wu Yansheng said this, he already harbored resentment towards Xia Tian and Feng Cheng in his heart.
Looking at Wu Yansheng's appearance, Xia Tian understood.
He was just saying it; he didn't really take it seriously.
That's just Wu Yansheng's nature.
As the saying goes, "It is easier to change mountains and rivers than to change one's nature."
Has Wu Yansheng truly realized his mistake?
He was just scared.
He was afraid that the summer would send him down the dam.
However, with Yu Zheng and Qu He present, some things became more difficult to handle.
If it weren't for Yu Zheng and Qu He being there...
Summer had nine ways to make Wu Yansheng deeply realize his mistakes.
There are a total of nine methods!
His high-sounding words were meant for Yu Zheng and the other man.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have wasted any words.
But no matter what you think in your heart, you must show unity and camaraderie in front of your superiors.
In this respect, Xia Tian and Wu Yansheng are very similar.
Why is it that Wu Yansheng, who is clearly a scoundrel, still manages to thrive in Bashang?
Even Qu He from the original storyline favored him.
It's because Wu Yansheng knows how to pretend.
Feng Cheng is different; he's the kind of person who's very straightforward.
Say anything.
They even went so far as to contradict their superiors.
No leader would like someone like Feng Cheng from the original storyline.
If it weren't for the protagonist's halo, Feng Cheng wouldn't even have survived three episodes.
……
Quick tip: We should learn from Feng Cheng in our personal conduct, and in the workplace, we must learn from Wu Yansheng.
