Chapter 241: Stealing a Man 2 I am unlucky enough to be your son...
Lu Yuan's shout startled all the staff in the editorial department.
Xiao Song was the first to react, frowning and saying, "Wow, these days thieves have the nerve to come to my house and make a scene. They're really shameless."
Lu Yuan rolled her eyes at her and didn't respond. She just urged, "Hurry up, where's Ye Zheng? Come out here. I want to ask you, are all the men in the world extinct? Why did you have to seduce my man?"
Ye Zheng stood up from her workstation, looked at the woman calmly, and asked curiously, "Who are you? I don't know you."
"Stop pretending. You've already had dinner at a state-owned restaurant with my man. Why are you still pretending to be innocent?" Lu Yuan took a few steps closer and looked at the woman. It turned out that this woman was not as pretty as her. No wonder her husband was unwilling.
Unfortunately, her husband was too timid and didn't dare to openly resist his parents. He could only tell her about it secretly and let her find a solution. Naturally, she had to meet this woman in person.
She stopped in front of Ye Zheng's workstation, raised her hand to lift Ye Zheng's chin, and tried to pry open her mouth to see her teeth.
His eyes were contemptuous, his movements were frivolous, and the way he looked at the teeth was full of humiliation, just like the human traffickers in ancient times.
This made Ye Zheng very angry, but unfortunately she had no power or influence, and no support from her mother's family. If she acted impulsively, she might suffer losses like the last time she faced the Niu family.
I could only endure it and said, "You are Lv Yuan, right? You and Director Zhang are divorced. I don't need your consent to meet him, right? Besides, he and I didn't go to the state-owned restaurant alone. His parents and the blacksmith were there. Please don't mislead others and make it seem like Director Zhang and I are not allowed to see each other in public."
Lu Yuan couldn't help but sneer. This woman actually wanted to reason with her. It seemed that she was an easy target to bully.
Her figure is also very ordinary, not like her at all, with a curvy figure. It's impossible for her man to like this Ye Zheng.
I couldn't help but sarcastically say, "What's wrong with being together? Does being together mean you weren't the one who seduced my man? Maybe you've already slept with each other behind my back, you shameless bitch!"
This accusation was too serious. Ye Zheng asked herself honestly, she was a person of integrity and uprightness. Even if she came from a bad background, it was not her fault.
She was completely enraged and slapped Lu Yuan in the face. "You manuscript thief, what right do you have to throw dirty water on me? I didn't touch Director Zhang. Do you think everyone is as shameless as you?"
Lu Yuan was beaten and got angry, so she slapped Ye Zheng in the face.
Ye Zheng couldn't swallow this anger and immediately slapped him back. Lu Yuan retaliated again...
For a moment, the editorial office was filled with the sound of crisp and loud slaps.
Xiao Song and Xiao Jiang looked at each other and hurried forward to stop the fight. At the same time, Zhou Juan, who was watching the show, came to her senses and hurried to knock on the office door.
Unexpectedly, Yao Zhizhi had already heard the noise. As soon as Zhou Juan raised her hand, the door opened from the inside.
Zhou Juan quickly called out to Yao Zhizhi, "Editor-in-Chief Yao, hurry up, a fight has started."
Yao Zhizhi folded her arms and leaned against the door frame, looking calmly at the women slapping each other over there. She shrugged and said, "Don't worry, let them fight."
Zhou Juan was confused: "Don't care? Will Ye Zheng suffer any loss?"
Yao Zhizhi asked calmly, "Tell me, which of them started it first?"
"It's... it's Ye Zheng." Zhou Juan seemed to understand. Ye Zheng still couldn't stand the provocation. Wasn't that why she got beaten last time?
Yao Zhizhi was helpless: "Even if we call the police, they will focus on criticizing the person who started it. She knows she has no connections, yet she still loses her temper. How many times can we help her?"
But having said that, Yao Zhizhi couldn't really just ignore it. She turned back to her desk, picked up the phone, and called the Grain Management Office, asking Director Zhang's father to come over in person.
Soon, Zhang's father and Director Zhang came over.
On the way, Director Zhang was still stubborn: "Dad, don't be angry. It must have been Ye Zheng who started it. Lv Yuan has always been gentle and sensible. How could she take the initiative to provoke us? Dad, don't listen to other people's nonsense. Their publishing house is definitely on Ye Zheng's side."
Father Zhang rolled his eyes in anger. "Shut up! Don't make a sound to remind her when you get to the door. I want you to see what kind of person your ex-wife is."
"Dad, you are prejudiced against her. If she was really that bad, how could she behave well and get out early? As for the mistakes she made before, they are all in the past. You should give her a chance to reform. After all, she is the mother of your grandson." Director Zhang was still determined to protect this woman.
Mr. Zhang was so angry that he didn't want to say a word. When the father and son arrived downstairs of the publishing house, they were already shocked by the harsh quarrel upstairs.
Director Zhang was still comforting himself, thinking that Ye Zheng must have gone too far, so his ex-wife was screaming like a baboon.
With trust and love for this woman in his heart, he walked up the stairs carefully. When he got there, he saw Ye Zheng being pulled to the ground by Lv Yuan's hair. Lv Yuan rode on her without hesitation, trying to pin Ye Zheng down and prevent her from getting up.
Xiao Song pushed her away and helped Ye Zheng up. Lu Yuan was so angry that she turned around and spat at Xiao Song, which made Xiao Song let go immediately due to disgust.
Looking at Xiao Jiang next to him, he was obviously at the mercy of Lu Yuan. The buttons of his coat were torn off by Lu Yuan, and he had to cover them with his hands.
So, three against one, Lu Yuan actually had the upper hand?
Director Zhang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Lu Yuan didn't suffer any loss.
But... Lu Yuan really doesn't care about her image like this, with her hair disheveled, she looks like a madman.
After a brief moment of relief, he felt a subtle discomfort.
This discomfort was not only because Lu Yuan herself acted like a lunatic, but also because it was obvious that the other three women had been severely bullied by Lu Yuan.
Especially Ye Zheng, her clothes were torn, which showed that Lu Yuan had humiliated her a lot.
However, Director Zhang quickly convinced himself that these three women must have been bullying the weak, forcing Lu Yuan to fight back. Yes, that must be the case.
Zhang's father, seeing his lack of reaction, was somewhat disappointed. He quickly stepped forward and grabbed Lu Yuan's wrist before she could strike again. "Have you had enough of this? It's such a misfortune for the child to have a mother like you!"
Lu Yuan was stunned. Why did her father-in-law come?
She turned around sharply and looked towards the open office.
Yao Zhizhi was crossing her arms, looking at her calmly. Lu Yuan secretly said, "Oh no! I've been fooled." No wonder the other people in the editorial department just watched and didn't come up to help.
She thought they didn't want to bully the weak with their numbers, and it turned out that they called the Zhang family over just to appreciate her arrogant look.
It was too late to regret now. She could only pretend to be pitiful, crying and pushing Zhang's father away, and ran to Director Zhang to wipe her tears: "There were three of them beating me up, and I had no choice but to protect myself."
Director Zhang breathed a sigh of relief. As expected, his woman was the kindest and gentlest. He quickly comforted her, "Don't be afraid. I'm here."
Lu Yuan immediately burst into laughter: "I knew you were the best."
Director Zhang quickly hugged her and comforted her. As for the shocked, surprised and incredible looks of others, that was not important.
When Mr. Zhang saw this, his heart sank completely. He quickly apologized to Ye Zheng and others, and even personally found Yao Zhizhi to inquire about the amount of compensation.
Yao Zhizhi called Ye Zheng and the other three in and closed the office door.
She stood in front of the seat and looked at Zhang's father calmly: "The compensation is not important. What is important is that your son is not suitable for remarriage now. I advise you to think twice and don't hurt an innocent woman."
Ye Zheng understood that this was a warning to her not to get together with another man just because of Zhang Wang’s rejection.
You have entrusted your trust to the wrong person.
Ye Zheng quickly expressed her feelings to Zhang's father: "Uncle Zhang, I was working perfectly fine, and you, my ex-daughter-in-law, came over and beat and scolded me. How can I marry your son? I'm unlucky and can't be your daughter-in-law. Please take your son and Lu Yuan away immediately. I can't afford to offend you. I beg you."
Father Zhang's heart was broken. What a good girl! How could his son be so blind to choose the woman in jail?
He was really worried, but he couldn't insist on anything anymore, after all, he was in the wrong.
He could only look at Yao Zhizhi: "Editor Yao, look, I gave each of the three female comrades fifty yuan in consolation money. Is that enough?"
"You can discuss it with the three of them yourself." Yao Zhizhi didn't want to get involved in money matters. Since it was a private matter, she could just talk about it herself.
In the end, Xiao Song secured 100 yuan for Ye Zheng, and she and Xiao Jiang each got 50 yuan.
Zhang's father hurried back to get the money, and on behalf of his son and ex-daughter-in-law, he bowed and apologized to all the employees in the editorial department. Only then was the matter settled.
When the blacksmith received the news, her face turned black. This Lu Yuan is really asking for death!
She was so angry that she rushed to the dormitory of the non-staple food factory to ask Director Zhang for an explanation.
Director Zhang hugged Lu Yuan and kept repeating the same thing: "I'm sorry, it was my parents who asked you to introduce me to someone, not me. You should ask them."
The blacksmith sneered, "Since you're unwilling, then don't go to the dinner! You meet and have dinner, and now you say it's none of your business? You're such a spineless wimp! Someone like you is worthy of being a factory director? Let's wait and see. As long as you don't draw a clear line between you and this woman, your good days will soon be over!"
Director Zhang was not listening at all. He was only concerned with the soft beauty and fragrance in his heart, and his mind was filled with the woman's aggrieved and helpless tears.
The blacksmith had to make other plans. After much deliberation, she introduced the youngest daughter of Old Wu to Cao Guangyuan.
Firstly, Wu Liu wouldn't have to live too far away from his parents. He could live in the same yard and go back to his parents' home at any time. Secondly, the Wu family's situation was complicated, and most people were unwilling to look for Wu Liu. Wu Liu had a relationship with Ding Huowa, so it wouldn't be a loss for him to marry a divorced man.
As for Cao Guangyuan, his conditions are just so-so, so no one should look down on anyone else.
However, the Wu family disliked the fact that Cao Guangyuan was a second marriage, so they asked for a dowry of 600 yuan.
Cao Guangyuan's face darkened when he heard this. Six hundred yuan? Even finding a first marriage in the countryside wouldn't cost that much!
