When Chen Ze returned home, Chen Xiulian was very angry when she learned the reason. She was about to run to the factory to argue, but was stopped by Chen Ze.

"Mom, I have nothing to fear from the shadows when I'm upright. Once the results of the investigation come out, I'll be fine and will go back to work. This is a good time for me to have a good rest."

Since Shen Ze said so, Chen Xiulian didn't say anything else.

Although being suspended was dishonorable, he didn't want the job in the factory. The environment was not good and he didn't earn much money. With his abilities, doing anything else would be better than working there.

"Zeze, you don't have to rest yet. Go to the restaurant and help your mother. Business has been so good lately that I can't handle it all."

She knew that people who are always busy cannot rest, as they are prone to daydreaming when they are idle.

Shen Ze happily agreed, since he couldn't stay at home anyway.

Jian Xia was shocked to hear that Chen Ze was suspended. She asked Jian Xiaoxing and found out that Yu Biao was also involved. She was furious.

This month, she asked Yu Biao to help manage the video hall. He was very attentive and sometimes came before get off work. She was very touched and felt that he was getting better and better.

Unexpectedly, he skipped work.

Moreover, he even teamed up with his master to slander Chen Ze.

Although Jian Xia didn't have much contact with Shen Ze, he had always been a god in her mind, with a halo around him. How could he do something that would harm the collective interests for his own selfish desires?

On the contrary, Yu Biao was used to being careless. He relied on his master's support and worked carelessly without striving for progress. This was also the reason why she did not take the final step despite his frequent attempts to make good on her.

That night, the video hall was still crowded. Yu Biao hummed songs and played videotapes for everyone.

Jian Xia called him to the ticket office, threw a stack of solidarity in his face, and said in a cold tone:

"This is one month's salary, much better than your job. Don't come here anymore. I'll find someone else to help me with the projection."

Yu Biao was shocked when he heard this. "Jian Xia, are you crazy? Why are you suddenly mad at me?"

Jian Xia has always had a hot temper, so she told everyone what Yu Biao had done and stated her position. She absolutely believed in Chen Ze's character, but he and his master were both villains.

Faced with Jian Xia's accusations, Yu Biao also became annoyed. You can scold him however you want, but you can't scold his master.

Back then, his father died early, and if Ma Haitao hadn't helped him, he wouldn't be where he is today.

One should not be ungrateful!

The two began to quarrel fiercely, attracting many people to watch.

Seeing that Yu Biao was arrogant and unreasonable and had no intention of repenting, Jian Xia told him to get out and never come back.

Yu Biao was not convinced and, as if he had lost his mind, he started to grab the money that had just been put in the drawer after selling the tickets.

Jian Xia refused and tried to stop him, but Yu Biao accidentally pushed Jian Xia to the ground.

Everyone sighed, but no one stepped forward to stop it.

Normally, the two of them were always talking and laughing, but now it looked like they were just bickering.

This scene happened to be seen by Shen Ze who came to sell snacks such as melon seeds.

Shen Ze grabbed Yu Biao by the collar and punched him.

Yu Biao staggered and almost fell to the ground. Jian Xia reacted quickly and stood in front of Yu Biao, telling them not to do anything.

Yu Biao covered his face and pushed her away, yelling at Shen Ze:

"You were a leader in the factory, but now that you've been suspended, you're nothing. Stop acting like a leader. I've been working hard to run this video parlor since the first day it opened. What's wrong with me taking a little pay? It's such bad luck!"

Yu Biao introduced him to everyone in a sarcastic tone, "Everyone come and see him. He's our factory's deputy director. He took kickbacks when buying equipment, damaging the factory's interests. He's been suspended and is currently under investigation."

The people watching were all people who often came to the video hall for entertainment and were quite familiar with Yu Biao. After Yu Biao's exaggeration, everyone pointed fingers at Shen Ze.

"Don't be fooled by his decent appearance, he actually has such bad character!"

“It’s so unlucky to meet such a leader!”

After hearing this, Shen Ze clenched his fists, trying hard to suppress the anger in his heart, and looked at Yu Biao with sharp eyes.

Jian Xia couldn't stand Yu Biao's bullying behavior, so she pushed him out like crazy.

"Get out of here! Do you know how much money I spent to open this video hall? Five hundred yuan of it was paid by the Shen Ze family. You work here for a month, and I pay you a hundred yuan, which is already a lot. What else do you want?"

"Jian Xia, you can't do this, I'm helping you!" Yu Biao was pushed out by her and didn't listen at all. He kept emphasizing that he had contributed a lot to the video hall.

Jian Xia finally threw him out the door and pointed at his nose and warned:

"Don't step into my video room again, or I'll call the police. Also, I know exactly who Shen Chang is, and I trust him!"

After Jian Xia finished speaking, she turned around and shouted to the onlookers, "Are you here to watch the TV or to see the fun? If not, I'll turn off the TV."

Everyone smiled and went into the screening room to watch the TV series, thinking that what just happened was just a farce.

Afterwards, Jian Xia called Jian Xiaoxing to discuss the matter, but Jian Xiaoxing declined to comment.

Before, Jian Xia and Yu Biao had a very good relationship, just one layer of window paper away from breaking. Now that it had become like this because of Chen Ze's matter, nothing she said would be appropriate.

However, she still hoped that Jian Xia could communicate with Yu Biao calmly and not cause any trouble for herself.

Many narrow-minded men, when faced with such things, do not reflect on themselves, but instead look for opportunities to retaliate.

"I'm not afraid of him! Even though he is arrogant at ordinary times, he has to obey me. In fact, he is very timid!" Jian Xia disagreed.

After talking about Yu Biao, Jian Xia reported the video hall's income for the past month to Jian Xiaoxing, asking her to find time to collect the money.

Jian Xiaoxing now eats and sleeps in the factory, seizing every opportunity to collect data, analyze and compile reports. He has no time to go home.

She asked Jian Xia to distribute the dividends directly to Chen Xiulian and Luo's father.

"I made over three thousand a month. After deducting one hundred for Yu Biao, one thousand for Chen Xiulian, and six hundred for Luo's father, I returned the money to them with interest. I won't need to use other people's funds anymore. As for the remaining money, you split seven and I split three. How about that, Mr. Xia?"

Jian Xiaoxing's last sentence, "Mr. Xia," made Jian Xia laugh out loud, and her mood improved immediately. However, she couldn't eat alone.

"How can that be? It was you who originally proposed opening the video parlor, and you raised the funds. 70% for you and 30% for me is about right. Of course, I usually spend more time in the store, so 50% for me is fine. When Yu Biao's help is gone, I plan to hire a helper. It shouldn't cost more than a hundred yuan."

"You can make the arrangements. You have to take charge of the financial affairs yourself and never let others do it for you," said Jian Xiaoxing.

Jian Xia nodded frequently: "Yeah, I understand."

After they hung up the phone, they felt very happy that each of them had earned more than 600 yuan a month.

Jian Xiaoxing looked down at the report in her hand, and a smile appeared on her lips. After a period of hard work, the report she made, including all the data, was very beneficial to Shen Ze.
