As the workers watched Zhou Tianlei being taken away, they discussed the matter animatedly, mostly expressing their condemnation and disgust.
Guan Wenru walked to Chen Jianhui and the county leaders, facing the still unsettled workers below.
She cleared her throat, her voice clear, "Comrades, quiet down, let me take this opportunity to say a few more words."
The crowd gradually quieted down and all looked at Guan Wenru.
"First of all, regarding my sister, Comrade Baiyun, she and Comrade Xi Mufan officially obtained their marriage certificate in accordance with national law long ago, before Comrade Xi Mufan returned to the capital to study! They are a legal couple! The reason they did not make it public is due to their own considerations as young people, and there are some personal reasons."
A murmur of sudden realization rippled through the crowd below.
"Oh! So that's how it is! I knew it!"
"Exactly! Baiyun is such a nice girl, always smiling at everyone, and she works so hard, how could she be like what they say!"
"Yes, Baiyun looks like an honest child, we almost got wronged!"
Baiyun lowered her head even further when she heard what everyone was saying, her fingers twisting together.
Guan Wenru pursed her lips, looked at Bai Yun beside her, whose eyes were somewhat evasive, took Bai Yun's hand, and continued to say to everyone, "So, all those rumors before were pure nonsense and were malicious attempts to sabotage! Everyone should stop mentioning them in the future."
Rumors stop with the wise! The bad guys got what they deserved!
As for the raw material issue at the factory, I'm already working on a solution! The sky won't fall! Our feed mill absolutely cannot collapse! Everyone, cheer up! Let's fight the production battle! We must meet our targets!
Everyone responded enthusiastically, "Yes! Director Guan! Don't worry!"
"Let's go, let's get to work!"
"Hurry up, don't delay production!"
The workers quickly dispersed and headed to their respective workshops and posts.
Guan Wenru put his arm around Bai Yun's shoulder, whispered something, and told her to go and do her work.
......
Guan Wenru, Lei Yongkang, Chen Jianhui, and others returned to her office.
At this moment, Zhou Tianlei was being watched by the police and was sitting in a chair.
Seeing Guan Wenru and the others walk in, Zhou Tianlei raised his head, his gaze sweeping back and forth between Guan Wenru, Chen Jianhui, and Lei Yongkang with a gloomy expression, before suddenly letting out a strange laugh.
"Guan Wenru, Lei Yongkang, Chen Jianhui... Hmph, no wonder you three are united against a common enemy. Your relationship isn't exactly clear-cut, is it? Have you been having an affair for a long time? Is that why you're working together to bring me down?"
"!" Guan Wenru's face turned ashen instantly. She rushed over and slapped Zhou Tianlei hard across the face!
"Zhou Tianlei! You bastard, you're so incompetent that you start spreading dirty rumors about women, aren't you?"
Zhou Tianlei covered his face, staring at her in disbelief, "You!"
He tried to retaliate, but the police officer stopped him in time.
Guan Wenru's chest heaved as she pointed at him, "I ask myself honestly, haven't I treated you well these past few years? Since last year, you've been complaining every few days that you're not feeling well, that your back hurts, and your legs ache."
Fine, I understand! Since the beginning of the year, in terms of heavy lifting, strenuous work, and running errands at the factory, it's always been me and Deputy Factory Director Lei who's taken the lead! I wanted you to rest more and worry less! Is this how you repay me? Have you lost all your conscience?!
And speaking of the factory! In terms of bonuses and benefits, when have you, the deputy factory director, ever been shortchanged? Huh?!
But what about you? When you ordered people to sabotage the raw material warehouse, did you think about the consequences?!
Those aren't just a bunch of lifeless numbers! They're the lifeblood of the factory! They're the emergency food supplies that so many production brigades are desperately waiting for!
Without that feed, what will their cattle and sheep eat? How will they survive? For your own shameful pursuit of power, you've become utterly heartless and rotten! You're not even human!
Chen Jianhui and the county leaders shook their heads, their faces extremely grim.
Chen Jianhui sighed, "Old Zhou, you've disappointed us so much!"
Even the county leaders couldn't help but rebuke, "This matter is extremely serious!"
Zhou Tianlei, panting heavily, stared at Guan Wenru with bloodshot eyes. He suddenly stood up, only to be pushed back down by the police.
He gritted his teeth, "You've been good to me? Yes! You've never shortchanged me on food and clothing! But Guan Wenru! You're just a little girl! What makes you think you can be the factory director, putting me and Lao Lei above you?!"
"In terms of seniority and age, aren't we all better than you? This factory can't function without you?! Why do you think you're so high and mighty? Huh? Just because your husband is an official?! Bah!"
"???" These words left everyone present speechless and rolling their eyes.
Lei Yongkang couldn't help but step forward, feeling helpless and angry, "Old Zhou! You're still saying such nonsense!"
Yes! Factory Director Guan is young! She's a woman! But could this factory have expanded to its current size without her?
Whenever a problem arises, she always comes up with a solution. Take this raw material issue, for example. Do you have a solution? Can I? No! Factory Manager Guan is already finding a way to solve it!
Yes, some tasks seem simple, like anyone could do them. But why didn't you and I think of improving the simplest feed formulation to increase production and efficiency first?
Factory Director Guan came up with the idea! And led everyone to make it happen! Old Zhou, we have to admit it! You can't deny ability! I, Lei Yongkang, am convinced! What's bothering you? Huh?"
Guan Wenru knew there was no point in reasoning with this kind of person, so after forcing him to hand over the office keys, she had the police officers take him away.
Chen Jianhui and Lei Yongkang exchanged a few more words with Guan Wenru before returning to their posts.
...
He Yanzhi went on a mission, so the task of tutoring the children's homework every night fell to Guan Wenru again.
