Chapter 45 The Almighty Director Lu is in Trouble

Jiang Haitang truthfully repeated what Xiao Taozi said today.

Lu Liangchen fell silent. What he had worried about before finally happened.

But as adults, we can’t get involved in a quarrel between children, right?

"How about reminding Xiao Taozi's teacher and asking her to pay more attention to her?"

Children of this era are left to their own devices. Not only do they have a few quarrels but even fights, as long as nothing is done, adults basically don't care.

"After I'm done with these two days, I'll go find the teacher to find out about the situation."

Lu Liangchen nodded. Two days ago, Xiao Taozi’s teacher came to see him, but he was busy and didn’t see him. Could it be that he wanted to talk about this?

"Then I'll go back first."

Jiang Haitang turned around to go out but was stopped by Lu Liangchen.

He pointed to a pile of newspapers on the coffee table and said, "Haitang, take these newspapers back with you and read them in your spare time."

"Thank you, Director Lu." Jiang Haitang picked up the newspaper, thanked him and left.

Lu Liangchen saw her out the door and watched her walk away before returning to the house.

As the night wind blew, Jiang Haitang felt her face getting even hotter.

He felt how good Director Lu was to her.

At first, she thought that Director Lu cared about the cadres.

However, recently she clearly felt that Director Lu might have some other thoughts about her.

The look he gave her was so burning, the look a man gives a woman.

But she is not worthy of Director Lu.

Director Lu had served in the army and made great contributions. He is now the deputy director and is someone she can only look up to.

From now on, do you want to stay away from Director Lu?

But can she really bear to give up this warmth?

Can she bear to give up the well-behaved little Taozi?

I returned to the dormitory with a stack of newspapers. The place was bustling with activity: some were talking, some were knitting, some were sewing...

"Haitang, why did you come back just now?" Fei Xinzhu asked.

It's almost ten o'clock now. Even if Jiang Haitang gets off work late, she shouldn't be here until now.

"Something delayed me." Jiang Haitang put the newspaper on the bed and prepared to go wash up.

"Why are you still holding a pile of waste newspapers? Aren't the books enough for you to read? Why are you pretending to be an intellectual?" Wei Xiaohong said with a roll of her eyes.

Country boy, why do you pretend to love studying?

Do you think you can get a formal job by pretending?

Humph, which of the family members in the factory doesn’t have a higher education than her?

Jin Qiaoyun hurriedly pulled Wei Xiaohong and said, "Jiang Haitang is now an advanced model in the factory. Is she stupid?"

"Wei Xiaohong, if you want to fight, just say so. Don't be polite..."

Jiang Haitang's half-smile made Wei Xiaohong think of the beating she had received before.

I can’t beat him, I can’t beat him at all!

The other people looked at Wei Xiaohong's cowardly look and sneered inwardly.

After washing up, Jiang Haitang climbed back onto the bed and flipped through the newspaper Lu Liangchen gave her. Jiang Haitang read it very carefully.

These newspapers are all recent and contain a lot of current affairs content.

After reading a newspaper, Jiang Haitang understood that exams involve current affairs.

She needs to improve her professional knowledge in this area. She should have no problem with it, but current affairs are indeed her weak point.

Sure enough, there is still not enough time.

After eleven o'clock, the other people in the dormitory went out to work the night shift.

Jiang Haitang lay in bed but couldn't sleep.

If Director Lu is really interested in me, would you like to give it a try?

If she wants to try, she must work harder and do better.

After much thought, she decided to write a novel about female awakening from a female perspective after finishing the exam.

The prototype of the story is her and not her, but the many struggling women she has seen.

She had personally experienced a lot in her previous life and had heard of even more.

Moreover, in this day and age, if you can publish your articles, you can actually make quite a lot of money.

Before going to bed, she came up with a rough outline.

Nothing happened that night. The next morning, Jiang Haitang was busy in the kitchen when Kang Xiaoxia ran in and said that Director Lu was looking for her.

Hearing that Director Lu was coming so early, Jiang Haitang was worried about Xiao Taozi and hurried out to greet him.

"Director Lu, why is Xiao Taozi crying?"

Little Taozi nestled in Lu Liangchen's arms, with a tearful expression on her face. Tears were hanging on her little cheeks, her little mouth was moving slightly, and she was still sobbing.

Jiang Haitang had never seen Xiao Taozi cry like this before. She felt so distressed that she quickly took the little girl from Lu Liangchen's arms.

"The little girl's braids were messy when she woke up this morning. I thought it looked ugly, so I took them off. But who knew, she would start crying."

Director Lu rubbed his hair helplessly because he made his little daughter cry due to his hasty actions.

The little guy has always been very obedient, but today he behaved very abnormally and even resisted going to school.

It seems that I have to hurry up and take action on what Haitang reminded me of last night.

But during these two days, when the investigation into the righteous path is at a critical moment, he might not be able to spare the time.

Seeing Lu Liangchen like this, Jiang Haitang couldn't help laughing.

I thought Director Lu was omnipotent, but I didn't expect that there were times when he couldn't handle something.

When Lu Liangchen saw Jiang Haitang's smile, he could only smile bitterly.

He leaned close to Jiang Haitang's ear and whispered, "Little Peach needs her mother!"

Jiang Haitang heard it, but pretended not to hear it. She just held Xiao Taozi in her arms to comfort her.

"Dad took Xiao Taozi's braids off, and Xiao Taozi wanted her mother to braid them back."

Little Taozi looked at Jiang Haitang with tears in her eyes, feeling very aggrieved, but she did not forget to accuse her old father who had caused the trouble.

"Don't cry, don't cry. Give our little peach the most beautiful braid."

Jiang Haitang carefully wiped her face with a handkerchief and gently comforted the little girl.

"Crying will make you ugly, so don't cry anymore, little peach!"

When Xiao Taozi heard that she would become ugly, she immediately forced a smile.

She doesn't want to be ugly, she wants to be a beautiful baby.

Lu Liangchen hurriedly handed the comb in his hand to Jiang Haitang.

Jiang Haitang quickly tied two beautiful little buns for Xiao Taozi's hair, and Xiao Taozi handed him the hairpin she was holding tightly in her hand.

After carefully tying the two hair flowers on the little girl, Xiao Taozi burst into laughter.

Only then did Lu Liangchen breathe a sigh of relief.

He decided that from now on, no matter how messy Xiao Taozi's braids became, he would never touch them.

Zhang Shangwen came out with a bowl of steamed egg custard.

"Little Peach, come here, grandpa will give you some egg custard."

Xiao Taozi looked at Lu Liangchen first, then at Jiang Haitang.

After both of them nodded, he thanked Zhang Shangwen: "Thank you, Grandpa."
