In the small garden, Xiang Yu gave Shi Jian some more instructions on collecting evidence of officials' criminal activities before he returned to the ward.
After Shi Jian, Long Zaitian, and Zhang Hongbo left, the others stayed behind.
Wu Jing stayed behind temporarily as well because of his concerns for Xiang Yu's safety.
That afternoon, while Xiang Yu was resting in his hospital bed, his phone suddenly rang—it was Su Guangrui calling.
"Xiang Yu, come quickly. Secretary Mo wants to see you," Su Guangrui said a bit excitedly. In his heart, he had actually given up on Xiang Yu, viewing him as a naive youngster who wasn't capable of accomplishing much; but to his surprise, Mo Aiguo sought him out, which caught him off guard.
"Now?"
"Right now, immediately," urged Su Guangrui.
After hanging up the phone, Xiang Yu got out of bed and prepared to head to the municipal party committee. Although he was injured, it didn't affect his ability to walk.
