Chapter 56 Gu Yihan's Changes
The moment Gu Yihan pushed open the office door, the laughter inside stopped abruptly. She went straight to her seat and sat down.
Sister Zhuang looked at Gu Yihan with a sarcastic expression and said, "Deputy Factory Director Shen's son has a girlfriend."
Sister Li looked at Gu Yihan with concern, unaware that Gu Yihan's hand was gripping the pen tightly, her fingertips turning white.
At this moment, Gu Yihan was wondering if her low profile had made others think she was easy to bully and that anyone could trample on her.
Back in Gujia Village, she rarely went out except to go to school. She was cautious and careful, afraid of being out of place in this era. Gu Yihan felt that she had been wrong before.
Zhou Tingmei looked at Sister Zhuang and said with a coquettish smile, "Sister Zhuang, how hurt must Xiaohan feel if you say that?"
Zhou Tingmei was overjoyed. Why should she, who came from the countryside, have to stay and marry an old man, while Gu Yihan could remain innocent?
Gu Yihan slowly stood up and walked to Sister Zhuang, looking at her with icy eyes.
Gu Yihan is 166cm tall, and Sister Zhuang is 158cm tall.
With her height advantage, Gu Yihan's cold aura steadily suppressed Sister Zhuang.
At this moment, Sister Zhuang was being suppressed by a mere maid, and she couldn't control her temper at all. She sneered at Gu Yihan, "People should be down-to-earth and not indulge in unrealistic fantasies..."
Before she could finish speaking, Gu Yihan used her height advantage to grab Zhuang Jie from behind, and the tip of the pen in her hand was used to firmly pierce Zhuang Jie's skin and flesh.
Sister Zhuang's pupils gradually dilated, and her voice trembled as she said, "Ah...it hurts...Xiao Han...let me go."
Looking at Sister Zhuang's expression, Gu Yihan suddenly laughed. She had misunderstood. She should be more ruthless and make others afraid of her. If she could use her hands, she shouldn't use her words.
Looking at Gu Yihan like this, Zhou Tingmei panicked and said, "I was speaking up for you." After saying that, she quickly lowered her head and pretended to work.
Gu Yihan tightened her grip, and Sister Zhuang cried out in pain, "Ah... Xiaohan, I was wrong. I won't say anything like that again."
Sister Li, worried about potential danger, said anxiously, "Xiaohan, Sister Zhuang knows she was wrong. Let go quickly, or someone will die."
Gu Yihan's eyes slowly swept over everyone in the office: "Do you think that because I'm usually easy to talk to, I would let you hurt me?"
"Do you still feel that you hold a lot in my heart?"
"You think you can change my mind and decision with just a few meaningless words?"
The people in the office fell into a brief silence upon hearing Gu Yihan's words.
Gu Yihan shifted her gaze to Sister Zhuang and whispered in her ear, "Look at you, so instigating? Do you think I'm easy to bully because I don't have Deputy Factory Director Shen as my backer?"
After saying that, he abruptly put away his pen, grabbed Sister Zhuang by the back of the neck with both hands, and slammed her head against the table in front of him repeatedly.
"Help... let go of... me..." Sister Zhuang was dizzy from the impact and could only speak intermittently.
When the people in the office saw that Sister Zhuang's head was bleeding from kowtowing, Sister Li and Sister Zhang tried to pull Gu Yihan away, but before they could even reach her, they were already exhausted.
Gu Yihan beat Li Jie to it, grabbing Zhuang Jie by the hair and throwing her to the ground.
Gu Yihan slowly walked up to Sister Zhuang, looked at her slumped on the ground, bent down and patted her face, saying, "Even if I'm all alone, you can't bully me."
After saying that, Gu Yihan returned to her seat. She needed to think carefully about how to bring Sister Zhuang down.
She didn't believe that after this incident, Sister Zhuang would not hold a grudge against her.
Only after Gu Yihan returned to her seat did Sister Li and Sister Zhang dare to approach her. Sister Li whispered, "Sister Zhuang, let us help you up."
The two carefully helped Zhuang Jie up. Looking at her bleeding neck and swollen, bleeding forehead, they took a deep breath and felt a sense of fear towards Gu Yihan.
Sister Zhang said softly to Sister Zhuang, "Should I take you to the infirmary?"
Sister Zhuang, her face pale, said, "No need, help me sit down for a while."
Sister Zhang and Sister Li carefully helped Sister Zhuang to her workstation.
Zhou Tingmei glanced at Sister Zhuang's face, sitting stiffly in her seat, her trembling legs betraying her current mood.
In the days that followed, Gu Yihan went back and forth between the factory and home every day, ignoring the stares of some of the male colleagues at the factory.
Someone tried to strike up a conversation, but there was a cat on his way to and from get off work. Every time he tried to get close, the cat would chase and bite him.
This led most of the male workers in the factory to temporarily abandon their idea.
Accounting Office
Gu Yihan has been isolated by everyone except Liu Yang, and she has been thinking about how to bring Sister Zhuang down these past few days.
Gu Yihan didn't believe that Sister Zhuang, who controlled the factory's steel procurement costs, would have done nothing wrong.
Even a small supply and marketing cooperative can internally process defective products, let alone a machine factory with thousands of workers.
"You all go first, I still have some work to finish. I'll lock the door when I leave," Sister Zhuang said to them.
Everyone in the office chimed in, "Sister Zhuang, don't work too late."
Gu Yihan looked at Sister Zhuang thoughtfully without saying a word. After get off work, she went out with everyone and secretly hid under the stairs on the first floor.
Gu Yihan waited at the bottom of the stairs for almost an hour. Just when she was about to give up, she heard footsteps and pressed herself against the shadows of the stairs.
Sister Zhuang waited for a while at the entrance on the first floor, then said to the people outside, "You were the one who asked me to come, why did it take you so long?"
Gu Yihan then heard Deputy Factory Director Shen's voice: "Give me the ledgers, I'll take them and destroy them."
Sister Zhuang growled in a low voice, "No way! After you destroy the ledgers, there's no evidence. Are you planning to make me take the blame?"
"Don't forget, I don't have the capacity to sell that much iron."
Deputy Factory Director Shen said in a cold, sinister tone, "Don't forget, we're in the same boat. If I don't get better, you won't get better either."
"I'll only give you one night to think it over. If you don't give me the ledger by tomorrow, then I'll have no choice but to spread the news that your son is a bastard."
Sister Zhuang said in a trembling voice, "You can't keep using this as leverage to threaten me for the rest of my life."
Because it was getting dark and they were quite far away, the sound could only reach Gu Yi's ears faintly.
But when she saw Deputy Factory Director Shen approach Sister Zhuang and whisper something in her ear, she could only see Sister Zhuang's face change color instantly.
Deputy Factory Director Shen patted the still-stunned Sister Zhuang on the shoulder and walked past her.
After seeing Deputy Factory Director Shen leave, Gu Yihan noticed that Sister Zhuang had a sarcastic expression on her face and pulled a notebook out of her chest.
When Gu Yihan saw this, her eyes lit up. She watched as Sister Zhuang put the notebook back into her handbag and left.
Gu Yihan was extremely anxious. She wished she could get her hands on this notebook. She muttered to herself, "Why can't she access things remotely through her spatial storage?"
Seeing that Sister Zhuang was about to disappear from her sight, Gu Yihan anxiously wondered how she could get the account book.
Just as she was getting anxious, Gu Yihan suddenly froze, her eyes wide with disbelief as she took out the account book from her spatial storage and stared at it in her hand.
She opened the ledger with trembling hands, and after seeing the data inside, she knew that this was the ledger that Sister Zhuang kept in her handbag.
