Seeing Luo Shaoze's silly and cute appearance, Pei Guoan couldn't tell that he was a powerful figure outside.
"Growing vegetables is fun, isn't it? Planting them yourself, raising them, watering and fertilizing them, and watching them bloom and bear fruit is a very fulfilling experience."
"That's right, this is much more interesting than doing anything else."
Luo Shaoze said this and looked at Li Miaomiao: "Okay, just give me the drawings and seedlings and get busy. I'm here, you don't have to worry about anything."
"Okay, I'm going to work. Here's the key to the house. Take it."
Li Miaomiao and Pei Guoan had discussed this matter. This was the key to the front door of their house. As for their own room, it was locked separately.
Luo Shaoze was stunned when he heard this. He glanced at Pei Guoan, and when he saw that Pei Guoan didn't say anything, he nodded and accepted the key that Li Miaomiao handed over.
"Okay, since you trust me with this, I'll take care of the rest for you. I won't let you down."
As usual, Pei Guoan sent Li Miaomiao to the machinery factory first: "I'll pick you up when you get off work."
Li Miaomiao nodded and walked in, only to see Director Lin waiting at the door. "Director Lin, what are you doing?"
Li Miaomiao looked back and saw that behind her were employees of the machinery factory. She was not sure whether Director Lin was waiting for her.
Logically speaking, she just missed work for one day, so there shouldn't be anything urgent that requires her to wait at the door so early in the morning.
"Comrade Li Miaomiao, I'm so glad you're here. I've been waiting for you here since early."
He was really waiting for her. Li Miaomiao blinked and said, "Director Lin, what's the urgent matter that requires you to wait here so early in the morning? I know all the machines in the factory. Although there are many problems, they are not serious and will not affect production and make you anxious."
"That's not the case. A research team from above came to investigate and wanted to know about the previous incident where the machine was vandalized."
Even though Li Miaomiao had a strong mental state, she couldn't help but feel a pang of anxiety when she heard this. She looked confused and puzzled. "Let them investigate, what does this have to do with me? They can't possibly suspect I sabotaged the machine."
After Li Miaomiao finished speaking, seeing that Director Lin remained silent, she said, "No way, even if I wanted to sabotage it, I'd need the ability to do so. Before, I wanted to cooperate with your machinery factory, but I couldn't even get through the door and was almost thrown out. Even later, after asking an acquaintance for help, I could only barely go to your cafeteria to eat. It was impossible for me to enter the workshop."
"I know what's going on. You got into our factory based on your own abilities. Everyone knows that, but the higher-ups don't. Especially since you've been in contact with Feng Jianghai before, and Feng Jianghai is now a suspect. So you have to explain yourself and demonstrate your skills. When the time comes, let the facts speak for themselves, and some people will naturally shut up."
Feng Jianghai had never doubted Li Miaomiao. The speculations from his superiors were understandable and within a reasonable range without knowing the truth, but he knew best what the situation was at the time.
"Alright then, if that's the case, I'll listen to you, Director Lin. But let me be clear, the reason I went back to explain and do something is because you've always taken such good care of me. Otherwise, even if someone from above came, what would they do? I'm upright and I'm not afraid of anyone. If they want to use those so-called intimidation tactics, they'll have to see if I, Li Miaomiao, am a spineless person!"
Li Miaomiao said this very confidently, and she was not afraid at all because the people in the research team came from a higher level.
Director Lin knew that Li Miaomiao was definitely not a reckless person. If she dared to challenge the research team, she must have the confidence to do so. She was also a lady.
When they arrived at the room arranged for the research team, the members of the research team frowned when they saw Li Miaomiao: "Is this Li Miaomiao?"
"Yes, leader, this is Comrade Li Miaomiao, a comrade with outstanding technical capabilities. He just came to our factory and has made many contributions to it."
Director Lin said with a smile that even if he felt impatient with the members of the research team, he would not dare to show it on his face and had to treat them well. He did not have such an unfathomable background as Li Miaomiao.
"Director Lin, I hope you can be more objective and analyze things objectively, rather than judging someone based on your own subjective assumptions. Even shielding a beautiful young woman out of ill will is a mistake!"
The leader of the research team was a middle-aged man wearing glasses. His appearance and dress made him look very rigid and serious. When he swept his eyes over Li Miaomiao, it was as if he was holding a knife, as if he wanted to stab Li Miaomiao a few times.
Li Miaomiao listened to this person's words with a sneer on her face. "So this is the level of the research team. I thought the comrades sent by the higher-ups were fair and capable, but it turns out they just make arbitrary conclusions based on appearances."
"Am I wrong? You're a lesbian, but you're not staying home to take care of your husband and children. Instead, you're out there doing these immoral things, using your beauty to achieve your goals. You even resorted to some deviant means to get into the machinery factory."
Li Miaomiao laughed instead of getting angry when she heard this: "I just said the wrong thing."
"You know you need to admit your mistakes now, but it's too late! The comrades in our research team are all capable of withstanding the test and won't be seduced by your beauty. Your problem will be dealt with accordingly. Such a corrupt woman should be paraded through the streets for re-education."
"I just said the wrong thing. You're not incompetent, but you're just stupid. I suspect the higher-ups sent you here not to investigate, but to show off your stupidity."
Li Miaomiao thought she was quite well-mannered, so she couldn't help but curse. What the hell is this?!
She had previously sensed from Director Lin's attitude that the people in the research team might be difficult to talk to and deal with, but she didn't expect it to be at this level.
Without asking her any questions or seeing her abilities, he made a judgment on the whole thing based solely on her appearance.
"What did you say?"
The people in the research team originally disliked women like Li Miaomiao with improper conduct. When they heard this, they could hardly believe their ears. Are women nowadays so rampant?
"Li Miaomiao, you need to understand what you said. Some words can't be taken back. It's bad behavior, but you actually dared to insult the investigators. Are you crazy?"
"I'm not crazy. Do I mean to let you accuse me of anything? As investigators on the research team, it's fine if you don't work hard to get to the bottom of the facts, but you're judging something based solely on subjective assumptions. Where's your professional competence?"
