University student Qin Xiaoyu died with deep regrets, betrayed by a scumbag. Reborn, she finds herself in the body of a 25-year-old young widow with depression and two children, living in the 1980s...
A worker walked to the window and yelled at Hu Xing, "Get out of the way, you have no eyes! If you want to do the work, get out of the way!"
Hu Xing roughly understood that they thought she was in the way, so she had no choice but to dart down to the side.
Just then, she saw Director Fei waving frantically at the door, and she ran over.
Deputy Director Wang then realized what was happening and angrily asked the workers, "What are you doing?"
"What are you doing? Making some money. If you think you're too fat, then get out of here and stop causing trouble." The worker's dialect was very heavy, and none of them could understand him. After protesting for a while, they realized they were talking at cross purposes and were left confused. They had no choice but to slink away.
Once outside, they realized that Hu Xing was gone. Their prize, which they had almost gotten their hands on, had slipped away.
Hu Xing was taken home by Qin Xiaoyu.
Hu Xing took a shower, changed her clothes, and came out with red eyes and trembling slightly.
"I'm sorry, I didn't protect you well." Qin Xiaoyu came over apologetically and pulled her to sit down.
"It was my own carelessness." Hu Xing sobbed, on the verge of tears again.
“We’ll meet many more people like this in the future. I will try my best to protect you, and you must also learn to protect yourselves, okay?” Qin Xiaoyu said softly, and Hu Xing nodded.
"Mom, this is warm milk." The little sister came in carrying a glass of milk.
"Thank you, baby." Qin Xiaoyu took the milk cup and gave her little sister a quick kiss on the cheek. She realized that body language was much more genuine; her little sister liked her hugs and kisses. It turned out that her sister had been too reserved with her emotions.
"When will they be able to leave?" Hu Xing asked worriedly.
"It should be soon. You can stay at my place for now, and I'll make all the arrangements for you." Qin Xiaoyu had made up her mind. These people had crossed her bottom line. Now it wasn't a matter of whether or not to break off relations; it was a matter of life and death.
"Hey girl, I heard from Old Chen that something happened at your factory. What happened?" Qi Si rushed in.
"It's nothing," Qin Xiaoyu sighed.
"I'll get a few men to go over there, find out where these bastards live, and clean up their houses one by one. Smash their windows in the middle of the night, block their chimneys, I don't believe they won't behave. If one day isn't enough, we'll do it for a month, if a month isn't enough, we'll do it for a year!" Qi Si was really going all out. He wasn't going to kill anyone, but this slow, insidious process was even more painful.
"Brother, are you playing guerrilla warfare? We shouldn't use these tricks against them; it's easy to give them a handle to use against us. Let's not talk about the past. I hope your hands are clean from now on. No matter who investigates you a thousand times, they won't find anything wrong with you. Only then can I face my nephew and niece, right?" Qin Xiaoyu's words made Qi Si sigh.
"Your brother has really become a coward now."
"I didn't back down. My brother is a good man. What we need in a man isn't just someone who's brave but reckless, but someone who takes responsibility. That's what makes a truly good man," Qin Xiaoyu said with a smile.
"Alright, go ahead and do it. Remember, you have your brother here. If anything happens, just say the word and I'll cover for you."
"Okay, brother, that's enough!" Qin Xiaoyu had been holding back her big move. Who was she talking to? Every day, if she didn't show her power, people would think she was a pushover.
From now on, she's going to face the challenge head-on. It's a battle of ruthlessness, isn't it? Who can be more ruthless than a Scorpio?
When Qin Xiaoyu returned to the garment factory, Deputy Director Wang and several others were angrily waiting to settle scores with her.
"What's going on? Weren't they installing security grilles upstairs? Why are they doing it in the office?" Qin Xiaoyu asked preemptively when she saw the construction in the office.
"I don't know what happened either. A group of people came and started smashing and digging. Look, they even tore down the windows." Director Fei cooperated very well.
"Don't know? Go ahead and ask! Can't you even speak properly?" Qin Xiaoyu gave Factory Director Fei a cold look.
"I asked, you can ask if you don't believe me," Factory Director Fei said, sounding aggrieved.
Qin Xiaoyu tried to understand the Sichuan craftsman's words for a long time, but failed. She couldn't understand a single sentence. And it wasn't just one person; the entire construction team was made up of Sichuanese.
"Deputy Director Wang, I can only apologize to you right now. I don't understand what happened either." Qin Xiaoyu spread her hands helplessly.
“Your factory is poorly managed and must be shut down for rectification!” Deputy Director Wang said, pulling out his trump card.
"No way! This is negotiable. Let's eat first when it's time. Come on, let's go to the cafeteria. You must be hungry." Qin Xiaoyu was unusually enthusiastic. Seeing a glimmer of hope, the others could only sneer inwardly. After all, she was still a young woman. Were they scared?
The group entered the canteen, where most of the female workers who had been eating had already left.
Qin Xiaoyu told Deputy Director Wang to walk in front when suddenly a female worker carrying soup came towards them and bumped into him without warning.
"Are you blind?!" Deputy Director Wang jumped up from the burn, but shut up after he finished yelling.
This female worker is beautiful, with willow-leaf eyebrows, almond eyes, and cherry lips. She's incredibly pretty. And while everyone else wears work clothes, she wears work clothes too, but how did she achieve such a curvaceous figure?
"Xiao Lin, look at you, aren't you going to help Deputy Director Wang wipe it?" Director Fei scolded.
"I'm sorry." Xiao Lin's voice was soft and sweet. Her small hands were soft and gentle. When she touched Deputy Director Wang's pants, she gently brushed against him, and half of his body went weak.
Deputy Director Wang immediately forgave her.
"Xiao Lin spilled his soup too, so there's no food left, right? Come on over and join us." Deputy Director Wang's tone softened, his earlier rage gone.
"I'm so sorry." Xiaolin refused verbally, but his body language betrayed him; he had already turned towards the private room.
"Let's eat together, there's plenty of food anyway." Director Fei said with a hint of helplessness. Qin Xiaoyu gave him a quick wink, clearly telling Xiao Lin to leave.
But the other person had already sat down next to Deputy Director Wang and poured him a drink.
The person that Deputy Director Wang finds most annoying right now is Qin Xiaoyu. This little woman has no sense of propriety at all. Before, when they wanted her to accompany them for drinks, she would stay far away. Now that they find her an eyesore, she's just sitting there and won't leave.
"The work bell has rung, everyone go back to your posts," Qin Xiaoyu deliberately reminded him, but Xiao Lin acted as if he hadn't heard her and was still chatting happily with Deputy Director Wang, his body turned to the side.
"Does Xiaolin work in an office? Your hands don't look like those of someone who does manual labor." Deputy Director Wang looked at Xiaolin's fair and beautiful hands and wished he could grab them and take a bite.
“But the office is never peaceful either, there’s too much staff turnover.” Xiao Lin said, giving Qin Xiaoyu a meaningful look.
"You're just a small factory, what's with all the personnel changes? Look how stable our Second Light Industry Bureau is." Deputy Director Wang practically offered to transfer you over.
Qin Xiaoyu couldn't sit still any longer, so she stood up and said to the people at the table, "I have to go to a meeting. You can take your time eating."
These people were all overjoyed to see her leave quickly; once Qin Xiaoyu left, they would be free.
