Chapter 267 You actually betrayed me
She was a middle-aged woman with short hair. She had been called over by Su Qiang and Huang Lu to cheer them on. When she first heard that there was a good show to watch, she was very excited. Now she had indeed watched quite a bit of the show from the sidelines.
That was wonderful! Her trip today was definitely worthwhile.
As a result, halfway through the play, someone unexpectedly turned the focus of the play on her.
Middle-aged woman: "?"
She finds other people's plays very interesting, but when others watch her plays, they find them uninteresting.
She pointed at Su Qiang and said with dissatisfaction, "Su Qiang, this is not fair of you. Didn't you call all of us here? You said that as long as we all came, you would treat us to a meal at a state-run restaurant. We only came with you because of the benefits you offered, and now you're turning your back on us after you've served your purpose!"
She had said a lot of bad things about the factory manager and Shen Zhixia before, but she had no problem with the factory manager and was not very familiar with Shen Zhixia. The reason she was able to say these things was because of Su Qiang and Huang Lu's guidance.
She then said loudly, "From the very beginning, wasn't it you who spread rumors that Shen Zhixia and the factory director were having an affair? We were misled by you too."
Su Qiang only wanted to drag some people down with him; he was looking for someone easy to bully, but little did he know that the other party was no pushover.
The middle-aged woman said, "I did say some bad things about the factory director and Shen Zhixia, but I was just agreeing with you and Huang Lu. It was all the topics you started."
The factory manager's wife nodded: "So, it was Su Qiang and Huang Lu who did all this, and now you're trying to frame someone else."
The middle-aged woman nodded: "Yes, if they hadn't spread rumors, they wouldn't have tricked us into coming here. Boss lady, look how convincing they are. Anyone could easily be deceived by them. You were also deceived by them, so we didn't do it on purpose. Now that we know their ugly faces, we've joined them."
Su Qiang was so angry he laughed: "You're betraying me now. Don't forget what you said back then."
This woman used to be very harsh in her insults towards the factory manager and Shen Zhixia, but now she's actually siding with Shen Zhixia. How can she be so shameless?
The middle-aged woman said sarcastically, "I have always remembered my duty. I am a person full of a sense of justice. When I heard you spread those rumors, I felt it was unfair, so I listened to you and came to catch you cheating. Now I know that you deliberately spread rumors for your own selfish desires, so I naturally oppose your behavior."
She deeply despised Su Qiang.
She also revealed all the rumors Su Qiang had spread about the factory manager some time ago, mainly accusing him of completely betraying Su Qiang.
The way everyone was looking at Su Qiang made him feel like he was sitting on pins and needles.
Everyone is blaming him.
At the crucial moment, Huang Lu even kicked him while he was down: "That's right, if it weren't for Su Qiang, I wouldn't have come over. He's the mastermind."
Su Qiang exclaimed in shock, "Even you betrayed me?"
He was indeed the mastermind; he planned this from the very beginning. However, his true intention was to help Huang Lu vent her anger. Huang Lu was involved in every detail from start to finish, but now she's actually pushing all the blame onto herself.
Huang Lu's eyes flickered, but she ultimately remained silent.
She now realized that everyone present seemed determined to get justice for Shen Zhixia.
The reason, of course, is that Shen Zhixia married a good husband. If Shen Zhixia were just an ordinary person, she would have no choice but to accept it even if they were framing her. But her husband is Commander Huo.
She didn't know Commander Huo, but she knew that anyone who could sit in that position in the military must have power, which was why the factory director was currying favor with him. If he investigated her and Su Qiang's responsibilities, they wouldn't be able to escape.
Given the circumstances, all she could do was try to distance herself from the situation and hope that Huo Chenzhou wouldn't hold a grudge against her.
Although she knew it would be difficult.
The factory manager looked at Su Qiang, thought for a moment, and said, "So this was all something you planned all by yourself."
There were many people at the scene, but if this matter were to escalate, it would actually have a negative impact on the factory, and it would also be bad for his and Shen Zhixia's reputation.
The factory manager intended to give Shen Zhixia an explanation, but he didn't want to spread the news. After all, even if he and Shen Zhixia were innocent, it would be detrimental to them if rumors about them got out.
Reputation is really important these days.
The factory manager then said, "Let's leave it at that for today. I hope you won't spread any unimportant information. Let's put an end to all the rumors. And please don't discuss this any further, understand?"
The workers who had come to watch the show understood the factory manager's meaning and immediately assured him, "Manager, we understand. Don't worry, we didn't come today, and we won't reveal a single word of today's news."
The factory manager was somewhat relieved. He could have fired all the workers, but the factory still needed skilled veterans; otherwise, many processes in the factory would not be able to operate normally.
As the factory manager, he had to give Shen Zhixia and Huo Chenzhou a satisfactory explanation. After all, he had just promised Huo Chenzhou that he would take good care of Shen Zhixia, but such a thing happened in the factory immediately, which was a huge slap in the face for him. Now he had to make amends.
He hoped that Huo Chenzhou and Shen Zhixia would be satisfied with his solution.
Therefore, a mastermind is needed, and that is Su Qiang.
As the mastermind behind the whole incident, Su Qiang should be severely punished as a warning to others. This would not only apologize to Huo Chenzhou and Shen Zhixia, but also deter other workers from having bad intentions and from doing similar things again.
"Factory manager, I didn't..."
"Enough, you don't need to explain anymore." The factory manager shouted, staring intently at Su Qiang: "Su Qiang, I trusted you so much, I always thought you were a good employee in the factory, and I even promoted you. But you stabbed me in the back. Your behavior is truly disheartening."
"Now that so many workers are testifying, you can stop trying to deny it."
quibble?
He's trying to make excuses!
But nobody listened to his excuses.
Everyone wanted him to take the blame alone so that Huo Chenzhou and Shen Zhixia's anger could be appeased. After all, it was all his fault, but it was clearly something everyone did together.
He didn't care about anything else, so he explained to the factory manager: "Factory manager, it's all because Huang Lu kept complaining to me that she was being bullied by Shen Zhixia, and she often told me that you were giving Shen Zhixia special treatment. She asked me to help her, which is why I misinterpreted the information and caused this result."
