60: Chapter 60 is truly top-notch.

An Xiaoxi sat in her seat, holding Nut in one arm and gnawing on a king crab leg with the other, eating ravenously. The people around her watched her feast with amusement. This child's way of eating made the food taste even better.

Facing the table full of delicacies, Wang Xiaohua was certain this was the most luxurious meal she had ever eaten in her life. After thinking about it, she couldn't resist taking a photo and sending it to Lin Wanting.

Lin Wanting, who was still buried in overtime work, took a break to stretch. She froze when she glanced at the picture. Looking at Zhang Wei in the photo, she admitted she had regrets. If she hadn't broken up with Zhang Wei back then, wouldn't she be the one calling everyone to eat right now?

"Maybe there's still a chance," Lin Wanting murmured to herself.

Just then, Zhang Wei's phone rang. He quickly gestured for everyone to be quiet and answered: "Director Yu, what made you think of calling me? Is something the matter?"

On the other end, Yu Hongtao said irritably: "What, can't I call you if there's nothing wrong? It's all because of the mess you stirred up; I've been incredibly busy these past few days."

Actually, he only told half the truth. Ever since the Shenghai Museum announced the news about the imperial seal of china, it immediately garnered widespread attention from people across the nation. After all, who wouldn't want to see what the imperial seal of china looked like?

Yu Hongtao instantly transformed into a sought-after figure among the directors of various Museums. Even the Jinlin Museum, which had previously refused joint exhibition, immediately extended an olive branch and actively sought cooperation.

In the past, when he contacted other Museums, he wasn't well-received. Now, everyone was eagerly inviting him. In the circle, he was enjoying boundless glory.

These fleeting accolades didn't cloud his judgment; instead, he cherished this precious opportunity. Yu Hongtao personally coordinated and directed the entire exhibition. His sleep was already poor, and this situation made it even worse. He was truly experiencing pain mixed with joy.

"Just letting you know, the Museum will hold the first exhibition event for the imperial seal tomorrow afternoon. The Mayor will personally meet you then. Make sure you dress presentably," Yu Hongtao instructed.

Zhang Wei sounded a bit surprised: "Exhibiting so soon? Wasn't the plan to take over a month for careful arrangement?"

Yu Hongtao sighed: "Recently, someone has been spreading rumors in the circle, claiming this imperial seal is a forgery, purely for attention. And it's not just one person saying it. I discussed it with the management staff. We decided to exhibit it as soon as possible, inviting the Mayor to attend personally, along with experts from domestic and foreign parties for on-site appraisal. This way, the rumors will be debunked on their own."

As soon as Zhang Wei heard this, he knew it was that deputy director causing trouble again. He wasn't part of the antique circle and didn't plan to dwell on it, trusting Yu Hongtao to handle it properly.

After thinking it over, Zhang Wei said to Yu Hongtao: "Old Yu, I need to bring two people with me. One is the brother who caused the uproar last time; we agreed he could film exclusive footage. The other is the office director from the Instrument Factory; he's a partner of mine. I wonder if that's convenient?" Zhang Wei decided not to bring An Xiaoxi this time. If her parents saw An Xiaoxi on television, they might immediately come to drag her back, which would be troublesome. After all, they were her guardians, and he had no legal standing.

Yu Hongtao didn't take it seriously and agreed casually. He had also checked online recently; Interview Brother had over twenty million fans across the entire network, making him a top-tier internet celebrity. The promotional effect would be maximized, so he wouldn't lose out.

After hanging up, Zhang Wei called Xue Zhongde to inform him to attend the event together tomorrow, and then he told Liu Haorui: "Old Liu, this is a chance for exclusive filming. But it's an official event, so perform well tomorrow. You might even make the news. Don't go overboard! If you mess up and get censored, no one can save you."

Liu Haorui hadn't thought much of it initially, but after Zhang Wei's reminder, he became serious: "This is such a big deal; I need to hurry back and prepare, and then get some more formal attire so I look handsome on camera." Saying that, he left in a rush.

Zhang Wei was still shouting after his retreating figure: "Just get some normal clothes; don't be too exaggerated!" This guy had a history; he wouldn't feel at ease without reminding him.

The group continued eating and chatting until the waiter came in: "Sir, your total bill is sixty-eight thousand yuan."

Zhang Wei asked in surprise: "Did that young man who just left not pay?"

The waiter bowed with a strange expression: "Are you referring to the young man with the unique hairstyle? He didn't pay. Before leaving, he took two cartons of cigarettes, saying they should be added to the private room bill."

Everyone was dumbfounded. They had never seen such a shameless person.

"It's fine; the kid was just joking," Zhang Wei said lightly as he paid the bill, gritting his teeth inwardly. For his next income, I'll deduct double from him. No! I'll just deduct everything!"

After the meal, everyone parted ways. Zhang Wei returned to Jiangnan Garden with An Xiaoxi. The two decided to train Nut in the living room. The Labrador, being the most popular dog breed in the world, is not only enthusiastic and gentle but also ranks seventh in intelligence among dogs. Therefore, they are often trained as guide dogs or working dogs.

The two used snacks to entice him, and before long, Nut learned the commands to sit and lie down.

"You know, successfully training him gives quite a sense of accomplishment," Zhang Wei said enthusiastically.

They played until late at night. After Nut learned to shake hands, Zhang Wei returned to his room and opened the intelligence system.

Ding: Daily Intelligence has been updated. Host, please check it yourself.

At the Haolemei Convenience Store on Wukang Road, the third bottle of Coke on the shelf to the left upon entering contains a 3000 yuan prize.

[Daily Intelligence 02]

A human trafficking group led by Feng Cuier, disguised as nannies, kidnapped Jiang Jianhua, the five-year-old son of the chairman of Xuzhou Heavy Industry Group. They are driving a van through Shenghai City and are expected to leave Shenghai and head south tomorrow morning. Because they dare not stay in hotels, the three are currently resting in the Huilong Parking Lot. The license plate number is Su B*****. The group consists of three people, two men and one woman, and they are carrying several daggers and fruit knives. The Host can earn a reward fee by rescuing the child.

In Shop 02-29 in the Shenghai Antique Market, a new batch of raw stones transported from Myanmar has arrived. One raw stone, measuring 51 centimeters in diameter and marked with the number 54, contains glass-type jadeite, measuring 35 * 28 centimeters.

Zhang Wei lay on the bed with a wry smile. The system really thought highly of him. He had just caught a murderer, and now another kidnapper, a small group at that, had appeared.

There are many bad people in the world, but human traffickers are undoubtedly the most detestable. Some even break the limbs of trafficked children to beg for sympathy. Even if there were no rewards to be gained, Zhang Wei would definitely step in to save them if he encountered such people.

As for the third piece of intelligence regarding the jadeite raw stone, Zhang Wei was also very interested. However, he wasn't in a hurry and could put it aside for now.

Without any delay, Zhang Wei dialed Liu Haorui's number.
