After leaving the space, Su Xiao went directly to the machinery factory.
"Who are you looking for?" The gatekeeper dutifully inquired about the visitor's situation so he could register them.
"Grandpa, I am Su Xiaoxiao, the daughter of Su Eryong, the group leader of the third workshop of the machinery factory. I'm here to see Director Shu. There's something I need to discuss."
Su Xiaoxiao was dressed in a white top and black pants. She was petite and delicate, with regular features but fair skin. When she smiled, she had a pair of dimples. Because her parents had passed away one after another, she was deeply affected and exhausted after many days of hard work. Even though she had been given a different soul and had some energy, she could not hide her physical fatigue. She looked somewhat frail and pitiful.
"Oh, it's Er Yong's daughter. Come in, come in." The old man waved her in readily. The news of the fire in Workshop 3, which killed two and injured three, had naturally spread throughout the factory.
The old man looked at the girl's frail figure and couldn't help but sigh.
Su Xiao asked around and soon found Director Shu's office.
When Shu Zhendong heard that the visitor was Su Eryong's daughter, he couldn't help but think of the Su family's eldest branch who had come over a few days ago crying and demanding compensation, and his brows furrowed.
He reached up and took off his glasses, rubbed his temples, and said wearily, "Let her in."
Secretary Zhou acknowledged, and then led Su Xiao into Director Shu's office.
"Director Shu, hello, sorry to bother you." Su Xiao bowed politely.
Upon seeing this, Shu Zhendong felt relieved and his mood improved considerably. As long as it wasn't just unreasonable, that was good. "Sit down, Xiao Zhou, make a cup of tea."
Su Xiao thanked him and sat down gracefully.
Seeing that the young girl was neither servile nor arrogant, and was quiet and polite, Shu Zhendong felt a bit of goodwill towards her. Thinking about the character of Su Eryong and his wife, he also felt quite regretful. "Regarding your parents' matter, the factory's security department is still investigating the cause. Once there are results, they will provide compensation as soon as possible. Don't worry, the factory will take full responsibility."
Su Xiao took a sip of water, and when she looked at Shu Zhendong again, a tear welled up in her eye, but she gave a strong smile. "Thank you, Director Shu. I believe in the Party and the leadership."
Seeing this, Shu Zhendong's tone softened even more, "Don't be too sad. Your parents in heaven would naturally want you to be well."
"Yes, I know." Su Xiao sniffed hard, wiping away the tears brought on by the hot water, and looked at him expectantly, saying, "I'm here today because there's something I need Director Shu's help with."
"Whatever it is, I will definitely help if I can." Shu Zhendong had a good impression of the girl in front of him and decided that he would definitely help if he could. However, he would definitely not cross his principles or bottom line for things that he could not do.
Su Xiao was already very satisfied with this answer.
"Here's what happened. This morning, my uncle..." Su Xiao tearfully recounted how several members of the Su family had gone to her house to cause trouble, trying to sell her to the mentally challenged Li family as a wife, and coveting her parents' pension and job.
"Outrageous!" Shu Zhendong frowned deeply, also furious. "Don't worry, Uncle Shu will definitely stand up for you. This is outrageous!"
Thinking of those members of the Su family who came to cause trouble, they were indeed all bad people. They only cared about money and didn't care about family ties. They were worse than animals.
And the Li family—their actions are despicable; they are social scum.
Hearing this, Su Xiao felt much more at ease. Sure enough, her trip was the right one.
