Yu Junsheng was reborn and realized he was a stepping stone that glowed...

Chapter 74 Caught Red-Handed (Added)

After doing all this, the shadowy figure looked around and, seeing that no one was around, breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

Seeing the stacks of documents piled up on the workstation, I realized that these were the materials for the new project that Yu Junsheng was in charge of.

A flicker of jealousy flashed in the shadowy figure's eyes.

That stubborn old man with no vision! He's so outstanding, yet he didn't choose her, instead he set his sights on Yu Junsheng, that smooth-talking show-off.

In what way is he inferior to Yu Junsheng?

And then there's Yu Junsheng. He pretended to be on good terms with me before, saying nice things, but when it came to matters concerning my own interests, he only cared about himself. Why didn't he think of his good colleague at all?

Selfish and inconsiderate.

You deserved to be schemed against!

He snorted dismissively.

Let's see how you get away this time!

After tomorrow, Yu Junsheng's former glory will likely be over, and the Northwest Farm will be his final resting place.

Having completed his mission, the shadowy figure was clearly in a good mood, his steps becoming lighter.

After today, Yu Junsheng will no longer be in my way, and I will be able to...

As if already envisioning the person fulfilling their promise and the bright future that awaited him after the deed was done, the shadowy figure couldn't help but reveal a smile.

However, just as he turned to leave.

With a "snap".

The office lights instantly turned on.

This was followed by a sharp shout, "Sun Zhengye, what are you doing?!"

Why is there a sound at this time?!

Sun Zhengye suddenly remembered something, and was instantly horrified. He hurriedly closed his eyes, turned around, and ran away.

"Ahhh! A ghost! A ghost!"

Ever since his last encounter with a ghost, Sun Zhengye has become particularly sensitive to such things.

In addition, he was already feeling guilty about doing petty theft in the middle of the night, so when the lights suddenly came on, he easily misunderstood.

He quickly shrank to the innermost corner of the office and screamed with his eyes closed.

"Great Immortal, Great Immortal, please don't mess with me! I didn't mean to take the documents from Section Chief Liao's office and frame Yu Junsheng. I was forced into it! If I didn't do it, that person wouldn't let me go. I had no choice!"

"Great Immortal, please, please stop torturing me! Waaaaah!"

Silence, endless silence.

Sun Zhengye pleaded for a long time, but the 'great immortal' didn't say anything. Instead, there were occasional 'puchi' sounds, like he was trying to suppress laughter.

Sun Zhengye: "..."

He finally realized something was wrong and cautiously opened his eyes a crack.

Then they saw Section Chief Liao standing at the office door with a sullen face.

Behind him were Yu Junsheng and seven or eight young men in security uniforms.

The expressions on their faces were contorted, showing how hard they were trying to hold back their laughter.

Sun Zhengye: "!!!"

Damn it, what did he just say?

Sun Zhengye's heart skipped a beat; he knew things were going to get bad.

He was panicking terribly, forgetting all about shame, his mind racing to find excuses for himself, repeatedly protesting, "Section Chief, I...I was just joking! I just left my wallet in the office when I left work, so I came to look for it. I didn't do anything else! Please don't misunderstand!"

Yu Junsheng: "..."

Yu Junsheng's lips twitched. "Brother, at least come up with a more plausible reason."

Is this such a lame excuse a misunderstanding of their intelligence?

Section Chief Liao sneered, clearly not believing Sun Zhengye's nonsense.

"I'm going to misunderstand, what can you do about it?"

Sun Zhengye: "..."

What can he do?

He has no choice but to endure it.

Sun Zhengye was rendered speechless.

Damn it, when did this old stubborn man start talking so rudely?

Yu Junsheng looked at Section Chief Liao with admiration.

I thought their section chief was an old-fashioned guy who only did research, but I didn't expect him to be so good at witty remarks.

Without saying much, Section Chief Liao waved to the security guards behind him, "Gentlemen, you take him down first. I'll go check if anything is missing from my office. Yu Junsheng, you check if anything is missing from the main office outside!"

"Alright!"

Yu Junsheng responded loudly upon receiving the order.

He didn't go anywhere else, but went straight to his workstation.

Sun Zhengye's expression changed, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

I just hope that brainless Yu Junsheng doesn't discover what's in the drawer. If it were just something missing from Section Chief Liao's office, he could make excuses and find a reason to cover it up.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned.

Sun Zhengye watched helplessly as Yu Junsheng headed straight for his workstation.

Yu Junsheng first glanced at the desktop, then went straight to open the drawer and took out the document he had just put in.

Masayoshi Son's heart skipped a beat, and he nervously swallowed.

At this moment, Section Chief Liao also came out from inside.

He said with a stern face, "A data sheet for a new project is missing."

After glancing at the documents in Yu Junsheng's hand, Section Chief Liao's face grew even more gloomy.

"That's him! It really is him!"

Section Chief Liao gave Sun Zhengye a deep look and said in a deep voice to the security personnel, "Comrades, please tie him up and take him back to the security section for interrogation immediately."

Sun Zhengye felt a chill in his heart, but he still tried to deny it, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding! Section Chief Liao, I didn't do it!"

Without saying a word, the two security guards immediately and ruthlessly twisted Sun Zhengye's arms behind his back and subdued him.

"Oh no, it's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, Section Chief! Please believe me, don't be misled by that scoundrel Yu Junsheng!"

While struggling and kicking, Sun Zhengye was racking his brains to find a way to absolve himself of the responsibility.

"He must have stolen this himself. Yes, he must have deliberately put it in his drawer to frame me!"

Yes! The only way to extricate myself now is to shift all the blame onto Yu Junsheng.

Sun Zhengye stared at Yu Junsheng with bloodshot eyes, as if Yu Junsheng were his mortal enemy.

His voice was shrill, "Section Chief, please don't be fooled by this cunning person!"

Yu Junsheng waved the document in his hand with a forced smile.

"Oh, how come I don't know I've ever taken this document?"

Sun Zhengye, his neck stiff with anger, shouted, "Bah! Now that things have come to light, of course you'll try to deny it! You insidious scoundrel!"

He spoke with such sincerity, as if he had truly been framed by Yu Junsheng.

If Section Chief Liao hadn't just witnessed this person furtively taking something from his office and placing it on Yu Junsheng's seat, he probably would have believed it.

Thinking of this, his face grew even darker, and he was about to scold him when Yu Junsheng tugged at his sleeve.

Yu Junsheng gave a half-smile, as if teasing a cat, "Oh, really?"

"But I'm absolutely certain I didn't take it, and you also say you didn't take it, so that's really strange. How did this thing end up in my drawer?"

Suddenly, he said to Section Chief Liao with a serious expression, "Section Chief, I think we should report this to the police."

Sun Zhengye's expression changed drastically.

Yu Junsheng caught a glimpse of this out of the corner of his eye, a slight smile playing on his lips. Before he could continue his protests, he added...

"I heard that the police have a fingerprint verification technique, which means that whenever we take something, it will leave our fingerprints on it. And everyone's fingerprints are unique, so by examining and comparing fingerprints, the murderer can be found."

"Section Chief, let's hand this over to the police. I'm sure they'll find the thief who stole the documents soon."

Section Chief Liao immediately understood his intention and cooperated, saying, "Just like you said, Junsheng, let's report it to the police and make sure to find that thief and get rid of this pest in the factory."

Sun Zhengye was shocked and his face turned pale. "No, no, no, Section Chief, Junsheng, I was just out of my mind and was just joking with you. It's not a big deal. Why would I need to send you to the police station and cause trouble for the police officers?"

If the factory's security department catches you, the worst that can happen is losing your job. But if they really send you to the police station, you might end up in jail.

Section Chief Liao glanced at him and said, “I don’t think this is a joke; I think this is theft.”

Sun Zhengye choked.

Then Section Chief Liao said coldly, "Confess honestly, or you'll be sent to the police station."

It was clear that Section Chief Liao was serious, and Sun Zhengye immediately backed down, no longer daring to play any tricks, and honestly confessed everything he had done.

Anyone would know which to choose between the Public Security Bureau and the Security Department.

...

The next day at work, Deng Guangming was in a very good mood and would even smile and greet people in his department.

The department's subordinates were all flattered.

"Hey, do you think the section chief has something good to share today? Why is he being so friendly?"

Although Section Chief Deng had never been one to look down on people, he had never taken the initiative to greet them.

"Who knows? Maybe the kids in the family have some good news to share."

A few people outside were chattering.

Inside, Deng Guangming sat in his office, leisurely sipping tea and reading the newspaper while waiting for good news.

He knew that Sun Zhengye had made a move again last night.

According to his observation, the technical department has relaxed its vigilance recently, and he believes that this time it will definitely succeed.

As long as he gets rid of Liao Ruxin, that boulder in the latrine, from the technical department, and Yu Junsheng, that little brat, from the machinery factory, he'll have nothing to worry about.

Deng Guangming waited and waited with great confidence, hoping to hear good news from Sun Zhengye.

But he never received any good news from Sun Zhengye.

Just as Deng Guangming and the others were getting anxious, wondering whether they should go and inquire about it.

A subordinate rushed in from outside, shouting:

"This is terrible! This is terrible! Someone from the technical department has been arrested!"

"What?!"

"Who got arrested?!"

"What did you do wrong?"

Deng Guangming's expression brightened, and he walked to the office door, pricking up his ears.

The man bent over, catching his breath, before excitedly saying, "I heard it was a new young guy who stole confidential documents from the factory!"

"Really?!"

"Oh my god, this is serious. If it gets too serious, we might have to go to jail!"

"Not only that, who knows, there might be more..."

"What?! He's stammering. Does he even act like a man?!"

The man looked around and whispered, "Shh, shh, shh, it's... you know, a spy..."

"Oh my god!"

These people all became excited.

Spies are universally hated, and the whole office was in an uproar.

Everyone was talking about it, chattering endlessly about what would happen to the person who was arrested.

Hearing these comments from outside, Deng Guangming's lips curled up slightly.

It would be even better if we could pin a spy label on Yu Junsheng and make him spend his life on a labor farm.

Unexpectedly, Sun Zhengye's first job was mediocre, but this time he did quite well, which was a bit beyond his expectations.

The thought had just flashed through Deng Guangming's mind when he heard someone ask curiously,

"Several new people joined the technical department recently. Which one are you talking about?"

"It seems, it seems the surname is Sun..."

With a loud bang, the office door was slammed shut.

The men in the large office looked at each other, puzzled.

The section chief seemed to be in a good mood this morning.

Inside the door.

Deng Guangming's previously smug expression instantly turned gloomy.

What a piece of trash!

He slammed the teacup in his hand onto the ground.

Sun Zhengye is a good-for-nothing who only brings trouble!

They keep making mistakes, and they can't even handle the smallest things!

He shouldn't have had any expectations of him!

I was so blind to have chosen such a person!

Deng Guangming's expression remained gloomy and unclear for a while before he picked up the phone and dialed a number.

...

In the hospital, after a night of struggle and pain, Zheng Haiyang finally forced himself to accept reality.

What else can he do now that things have come to this?

Regardless, life goes on.

Anyway, he's already married, so let his reputation be ruined. As long as he acts like nothing happened, what can anyone do to him?

He's a real man, he won't let himself be taken advantage of.

Zheng Haiyang finally managed to convince himself.

As a result, the news of his mother, Chang Dafeng, assaulting Dr. Hu spread throughout the entire hospital the very next day.

Head Nurse Wang came from the battlefield in her early years. She has excellent professional skills and is a good person. Everyone in the hospital admires her very much.

Now that everyone knows her son, Dr. Hu, was bullied by an old shrew at his own hospital, how can this be allowed?!

The doctors and nurses at the hospital were all extremely indignant.

So, the nurse changing Zheng Haiyang's dressing treated him with extreme disrespect and force.

Zheng Haiyang grimaced in pain.

Before he could even say anything, the other person gave him a mocking look.

"Oh dear, how can a grown man like you not even be able to handle this little bit of pain? You're such a drama queen!"

Zheng Haiyang: "!!!"

Moreover, starting in the morning, groups of two or three nurses kept coming over to his ward, pointing and whispering, and occasionally making a few jokes.

Zheng Haiyang instinctively felt that they were laughing at him, and he was furious, wishing he could tear these gossipy people apart.

But his mother had just caused trouble at the hospital and was still being held in the security office, so he dared not cause any more trouble.

Zheng Haicheng was also in a bad mood and felt extremely embarrassed.

This hospital is so unsettling.

Just then, Chang Dafeng threw a tantrum at the hospital security office, acting foolish and pitiful. Seeing that she was old and her son was indeed injured, the security guards released her.

The mother and her two children immediately decided to be discharged from the hospital.

But they never expected that even back in the tenement, they wouldn't find peace.

The first thing they were greeted by was the strange looks from the crowd.

Bao Dayan glanced meaningfully at a certain part of Zheng Haiyang and Zheng Haicheng's bodies, and said with an ambiguous smile, "Oh, the butt seller is back!"

She has seen them all and tried them out with her hands.

Believe it or not, these two brothers might actually have the ability to make this kind of money.

Who knows, maybe I'll be able to... hehe!

Zheng Haiyang: "!!!"

Ahhh!

Despicable people! These despicable people!
