Chapter 83: Protecting His Wife (Part 3) Dare to bully his wife? Without even considering...
Yao Zhizhi felt like laughing.
This woman was quite devoted, crying as if it was real. I wonder if there was a vast ocean in her brain that she could use whenever she wanted and would never run dry.
Suddenly I felt that her crybaby mother was much cuter. At least her mother didn’t hurt anyone.
She smiled and said, "The publishing house has a security guard, so it's not your responsibility to protect our personal belongings. However... since you're so eager to help us protect our belongings, I can ask the president to swap duties with the security guard, Mr. Zhao. You don't have to worry about him being too old to do the proofreading work, since he has a daughter who can take over. This way, we can all feel at ease knowing that you can keep our personal belongings safe."
Lu Yuan suddenly couldn't cry anymore.
What's wrong with this woman? She doesn't play by the rules!
hateful!
Thinking quickly, he quickly acted pitiful: "Okay, since Director Yao trusts me so much, then I can switch shifts with Uncle Zhao. I just don't know if others will trust me. After all, I'm quite short, and if a thief really comes, I may not be able to beat him."
She has said so now, we can't ask her to change her job, right?
Besides, what editor would force a proofreader to work as a security guard? Isn’t she afraid that her colleagues at work will poke her in the back?
Lu Yuan felt that she would definitely win with this move.
Yao Zhizhi responded cheerfully, "Okay, let's start tomorrow. Come on, I'll take you to the hospital for bandaging."
Lu Yuan was stunned.
Hey, how can you do this? Isn't this bullying?
He quickly made an excuse to go back to his workstation to get his money, and tearfully complained to the other two proofreaders.
The two proofreaders were men, and they had a hero-saving-beauty complex in their bones. They were quite angry when they saw a baby-faced young wife being bullied.
When I asked, I found out it was Director Yao who brought it up, which made me feel annoyed.
"She's on leave for three months, how can she just randomly change other people's positions as soon as she arrives?"
"That's outrageous. I'm going to ask her to judge the matter."
Lu Yuan quickly stopped the two men and shook her head aggrievedly: "No, so as not to implicate you."
The two men were angry and indignant.
I was about to say something when Yao Zhizhi arrived and stood in the aisle, smiling. "Xiao Lu, I just discussed this with Uncle Zhao, and he said he doesn't want to swap shifts with you. Come to think of it, how can a girl like you beat a thief? But I can't take your request lightly. Since you're so eager to be a security guard, I can help you find a job at a certain company. Would you consider it?"
"What? Director Yao, you are not kidding, Xiao Lu actually wants to be a security guard?" The tall, thin and dark Wu Wei immediately heard something wrong.
Why don't these two people's words match?
Zhang Datong, who was a little shorter than Bai, didn't say anything.
He didn't know whose words were more credible, so he needed to wait and see.
Lv Yuan was caught off guard, her face flushing and whitening. She quickly tried to make amends, "Director Yao, you must have heard wrong. That's not what I meant."
"Oh? Didn't you say you wanted to help keep our personal belongings? Did I misunderstand?" Yao Zhizhi looked confused and innocent.
Are you kidding? If you want to survive in the apocalypse, it’s not enough to just be able to kill.
You must have strategy and means, and you must always be vigilant and humble.
If you don’t believe me, just look at her. She was the overlord of a region, but in the end, she lost her life because of her arrogance.
But this also taught her a lesson: in life, nothing is ever 100% certain to succeed.
Even a tiny factor can make the difference between success and failure.
Therefore, now she can deal with people and things according to their needs.
Just someone like Yu Xiulan, who is more aggressive and more difficult to deal with than her.
For someone like Lu Yuan, you have to be patient and sing a big show with her.
Now, she was already immersed in the role, and asked sincerely, "What do you want to do? You don't want to be a security guard, but you also want to help keep our personal belongings. I can't find a position that suits you."
Lu Yuan was speechless. This woman was so powerful. With just a few casual words, she portrayed herself as a good leader who worked hard for her employees. It made her so angry.
I could only smile and say, "Director Yao may have misunderstood. I didn't mean that. I was just thinking that I am also an employee here after all. If you really lost something, I would be very anxious and want to help you find the real culprit as soon as possible. As for being a security guard, I don't actually have that job——"
"Oh, then remember to make your words clearer next time and don't let others misunderstand you." Yao Zhizhi smiled and turned away.
The two men in the proofreading group looked at each other in bewilderment. They almost wronged Director Yao.
It seems that I can't believe one side of the story next time.
The two of them didn't say anything else and went back to work.
Lu Yuan stood there, shaking with anger, but couldn't get angry, so she clenched her fists, took a deep breath, and bandaged the wound first.
Yao Zhizhi accompanied her to the hospital and paid for the medical expenses. She watched the whole process and took the medical records away to prevent Lu Yuan from lying and pretending to be pitiful again when she returned.
Lu Yuan wanted to ask her for it, but Yao Zhizhi looked helpless: "Oh, there's nothing I can do. It's my fault that my colleagues in the proofreading team misunderstood me. This is not conducive to unity. I still have to take it back to let them take a look, so as to avoid any misunderstandings. What do you think?"
Lu Yuan took a deep breath and forced a smile: "Sister is right, I'll listen to you."
Yao Zhizhi turned around and the smile on her face disappeared instantly.
You bastard, just wait until the newspapers and magazines from your city arrive, and then I’ll let you see what my methods are!
After get off work at noon, Yao Zhizhi was still tidying up the office and was reluctant to leave. Qi Changxiao came to find her from the art department.
Lu Yuan has seen him several times recently and knows that he is Yao Zhizhi's lover. She is so jealous!
How come Yao Zhizhi is so lucky!
It's not enough that the man is handsome! My father-in-law is a martyr, and my mother-in-law is a director.
Her husband is the only child in the family, so there are no conflicts or disputes between sisters-in-law.
Look at her family again! The elder sister-in-law likes to come back and act bossy all day long, treating herself as the incarnation of the mother-in-law, while the younger sister-in-law is always sarcastic and dislikes her eating habits as if she is from outside the city.
Her brother and sister-in-law were even more petty. Today they complained that she used two extra drops of oil and asked for five cents more. Tomorrow they complained that she used two extra spoonfuls of sugar and asked for two cents more.
As for needles and thread, they are so petty and it's outrageous!
The more I think about it, the more I feel that Yao Zhizhi's in-laws are the best.
Of course she couldn't swallow this. We were all women, so why was there such a big difference between us?
What's more, Yao Zhizhi occupied the position she wanted most!
I'm so angry!
At this moment, she heard the couple talking inside and was so jealous that she simply left without waiting for her husband to pick her up.
Halfway through the journey, she saw the man's car and immediately burst into tears, feeling wronged. "That Yao Zhizhi is back. As soon as she arrived, she sent me back to do proofreading and even asked me to clean her office. My hands are all broken and it hurts so much."
The man was heartbroken and quickly stopped the car. He helped her sit in the back seat and asked, "Did you bandage your hand yourself or did you go to the hospital?"
"That man is so fierce, how could I dare to ask for leave to go to the hospital." Lu Yuan said something ambiguous. If she was really exposed, she could cover up the lie - she really didn't dare to ask for leave, but Yao Zhizhi felt guilty and took her there on her own initiative. She didn't say that they were not going to the hospital.
She has been playing word games like this for so many years, and these men are all rough and don't delve into it.
However, the women in the unit were all very smart and soon stopped playing with her.
Now she can only hang out with men.
There is no other way. She has to be social. Otherwise, won’t she be isolated by the entire publishing house?
The man's surname is also Zhang. He is not very good-looking, but his family conditions are good. So he cherishes this petite wife with a baby face.
He immediately became furious and prepared to find Yao Zhizhi to have a good talk with her.
So he comforted her: "Rest at home in the afternoon, I will ask for leave for you."
"That's not good. Director Yao will be angry." Lu Yuan was still crying, like a shy pear blossom, so pitiful.
Director Zhang took a deep breath and said, "She wouldn't dare. You're injured, so I'm just asking for leave."
Lu Yuan was satisfied. She knew that her man would stand up for her, even if it was just to scare Yao Zhizhi.
Anyway, Yao Zhizhi's mother-in-law has a special status, so as family members, they dare not do anything wrong. At most, they can just quarrel with each other, and that's all else matters.
Unless she doesn't care about her mother-in-law's job at all.
After lunch in the afternoon, Lu Yuan took advantage of the lunch break to coax her man and whisper in his ear, saying bad things about Yao Zhizhi.
Director Zhang's first impression of Yao Zhizhi was that she was an arbitrary and tyrannical woman who had no mercy on her employees and exploited the labor of her colleagues.
*
Yao Zhizhi went home for dinner and mentioned the lost manuscript on the way.
Qi Changxiao found it incredible: "How dare she do that? There are so many people in your editorial department, and no one stepped up to take charge?"
"Once the office door is closed, who will know?" Yao Zhizhi was helpless. This was the disadvantage of those in power abusing their power. She had to remind herself at all times not to learn from Lu Yuan.
Qi Changxiao sneered, "That's not difficult. When the newspapers and periodicals from Weicheng arrive, I'll help you check them. We'll see what she says then."
"I heard that her husband took over Director Cao's job and is very proud of himself." Yao Zhizhi was not afraid, she just thought it was funny. If a woman like this who relies on the power of others comes to power, the consequences will be unimaginable.
The sales of these issues of the magazine speak for themselves.
When I got home, I saw Yao Taotao already waiting at the door, also worried about the magazine.
Yao Zhizhi got out of the car and asked her to come in and talk.
"These are the manuscripts returned by the editorial department. These are the new ones I collected this month. What do you think we should do?" Yao Taotao was not idle either. She couldn't sit still when she saw the decline in sales. Zhang Cai Ni was taking care of the children recently. Apart from work, she spent all her time on investigation.
I have already obtained some reliable evidence and would like to let Yao Zhizhi make the decision.
Yao Zhizhi opened the manuscript and took a look. She found that the quality had improved a lot. If these rejected manuscripts were published in the next few issues, she couldn't imagine how good the sales would be.
I was so angry that I turned over the evidence at the bottom.
One was a testimony written by typesetter Xiao Song, confirming that Lv Yuan received royalties for more than a dozen articles in a month.
Yao Taotao explained, "She talks to Accountant Xiao Fang about everything, otherwise she wouldn't have known that Lv Yuan was playing such a trick."
Yao Zhizhi understood: "She wrote those manuscripts herself? She replaced the ones we originally arranged."
"Yes." Yao Taotao was furious. "I've never seen such a shameless person."
The second letter was from an employee of a publishing house in Weicheng, confirming that Lv Yuan often did this kind of thing, and that she had sent back several manuscripts with completely different writing styles in the first month of this year, all of which had been accepted.
Yao Zhizhi was very surprised: "Of course, you have investigated it so clearly!"
Yao Taotao could tell that this was genuine praise, and she explained with a smile, "I didn't dare act rashly. I had to find out everything before I could tell you. I only received this letter yesterday, so I brought it to you today."
"Very good, these two pieces of evidence are crucial. Don't worry, I'll handle it." Yao Zhizhi asked about Zhang Caini's condition. "How is she? Can she speak fluently?"
"Yes, I don't know why, but Xiaogang likes playing with her and kisses her a lot." Yao Taotao also found it magical. At first, she was worried that Xiaogang would resist being with a strange aunt.
Yao Zhizhi didn't think much about it. Zhang Cai Ni looked gentle and harmless, so it was normal for children to like to be close to her.
I asked the orphan of the Hu family again.
Yao Taotao sighed, "This child...his eyes are so distinctive. I'm afraid I can't hide them, so I don't dare let Zhang Caini take him out. Every day, Cao Guangyi buys the groceries and daily necessities, and Zhang Caini stays home as much as possible."
"Wait, I have something here. Take it back and give it to your child." Yao Zhizhi turned and went into the room. She went to the system store and bought a pair of children's colored contact lenses. "The instructions are written on it. Put them on your child and he'll look more normal."
Yao Taotao took the contact lenses and was stunned: "How amazing! Where did you buy them?"
"Don't ask, I don't want to say." Yao Zhizhi smiled and kept her mouth shut.
Yao Taotao knew what to do, so she stopped asking and stood up, saying, "Then I'll go back and wait for your news."
"Have you reconciled with Cao Guangyi?" Yao Zhizhi asked casually.
Yao Taotao smiled and said, "We've reconciled, but we're not remarrying. He's worried that I might dump him at any moment. I don't know how hard he works. If it had been like this from the beginning, I could have lived with him forever even if he couldn't have children. Now, it's too late. Let's just be a life partner for now. I'll still consider breaking up if I meet the right person in the future."
Yes, who doesn’t want to have a child of their own?
But think about it again, it cannot be based on harming others.
Yao Zhizhi could only advise her: "In short, if you have anything to say, just say it openly. If the time comes, part ways amicably."
"I know, don't worry." Yao Taotao went back.
Yao Zhizhi repeatedly looked through the manuscript in her hand, and remembered that she still had to send postage to Uncle Chang's students, so she hurried to prepare it.
I hadn't seen the little moon all morning. After feeding her during lunch break, Yao Zhizhi was no longer sleepy. She just supported herself with her arms, maintained this posture, and kept looking at her daughter with a silly smile.
Qi Changxiao was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He was afraid that Xiao Xingxing would be jealous, so he took over the task of accompanying Xiao Xingxing for a nap at noon today. It just so happened that Yao Weihua had to go to the Agricultural College to do something.
After lunch break, the couple exchanged before going to work.
Mom hugged the little star and dad kissed the little moon. Just then, uncle came back and mom and dad went to work.
When she arrived at the office, Yao Zhizhi found an angry man standing on the steps in front of the publishing house.
Yao Zhizhi had never seen it before and didn't intend to pay any attention to it.
But Qi Changxiao felt something was wrong, so he stopped the car and walked with her to the small building of the editorial department.
The man looked at Yao Zhizhi and asked, "You're the only one missing from your editorial department. You must be Director Yao, right?"
Yao Zhizhi frowned: "You want to submit an article?"
"Submit a contribution? I'll submit to you!" Director Zhang was very rude and stretched out his hand to grab Yao Zhizhi's collar. When Qi Changxiao saw this, he walked up to her without saying a word and pushed her with his shoulder, making her retreat repeatedly.
Finally, his back hit the wall and he stopped.
Director Zhang squinted his eyes at the man, sneered, and said harshly, "You're her husband? You've come just in time. Now ask her how this bitch of yours bullied my wife! She must apologize to my wife today!"
Qi Changxiao walked forward with a sneer. How dare you bully his wife? Don't you even consider your own status?
He protected Yao Zhizhi behind him and said provocatively, "Oh? Then call the police. We also have something to discuss with your wife."
