He had already seen through Lin Jiafu's true colors. Even if he hadn't seen through it last night, he was already fully awake today.
But Xiao Sheng definitely wouldn't think that way. He would definitely think that he still has feelings for Lin Jiafu!
With a sigh, Zhao Nianmeng felt somewhat defeated and was about to give up and say something more when...
Standing opposite her, Jiang Sheng remained calm, even smiling slightly at Zhao Nianmeng before speaking softly.
"Big sister, I already knew that you weren't having a party with friends last night."
Jiang Sheng paused for a moment, looking at Zhao Nianmeng's surprised expression, but his face was full of sincerity.
"Because you're really bad at lying, I already guessed it when you were hesitant yesterday."
"Sister Qianqian told you all this again today, and I knew I was right."
After hearing Jiang Sheng's explanation, Zhao Nianmeng was no longer as flustered as before, and instead spoke apologetically.
"I'm sorry, Xiaosheng, it's not that I don't want to talk to you, I just want to sort out some of my thoughts."
"I was afraid you would misunderstand, so I simply kept it from you. Actually, I realized today that Team Leader Lin doesn't genuinely like me. You can rest assured about that. I will definitely be more vigilant in the future!"
She truly is my perfect and beautiful older sister; she is usually composed and meticulous at the factory.
How could such an intelligent and considerate older sister not see through the tricks of a little scumbag?
At this moment, Jiang Sheng was finally able to put his mind at ease.
As long as the eldest sister can be more vigilant towards Lin Jiafu and remain somewhat skeptical of what he says, Jiang Sheng won't have to worry too much in the future.
"So I understand my older sister, and that's why I didn't say it directly."
Jiang Sheng smiled, then looked a little embarrassed: "If Sister Qianqian hadn't brought it up today, I would never have said anything about this."
Once the two opened up, the atmosphere was no longer as awkward as before.
As for Zhao Nianmeng, she completely relaxed and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Actually, something happened at the factory today, and I was just about to go home when I told Xiaosheng about it."
What Zhao Nianmeng was about to say was about the workers' disturbance earlier.
Jiang Sheng's curiosity was piqued, and the two walked and talked as they left the office.
By the time Jiang Sheng arrived at the parking shed, he had already learned from his older sister about the workers' earlier disturbance.
Just as they were about to say something, some of the factory workers who hadn't yet left saw the two walking side by side.
"Isn't that the young man from earlier? Why is he walking with our factory manager?"
"Could he be our Factory Director Zhao's boyfriend? He's so handsome and good-looking!"
"Don't talk nonsense, or you'll ruin Director Zhao's reputation. Who knows, this young man might be someone's family member?"
"That's not necessarily true. Our factory director Zhao has been the director of our factory for so many years, and I've never heard of him having such a handsome family member!"
"..."
The whispers didn't seem to be discreetly directed at the two of them. Although they tried to keep their voices down, Jiang Sheng could still faintly hear some of the words.
However, he didn't take these people's comments seriously.
Instead, he began to ponder what Zhao Nianmeng had just said.
"Sister, are you saying that someone is deliberately stirring up trouble to sabotage this reform of state-owned enterprises, right?"
Faced with Jiang Sheng's question, Zhao Nianmeng nodded without hesitation.
"That's right. This matter is being kept secret. The factory's higher-ups are very tight-lipped, and it's absolutely impossible for it to leak out."
"Everything was fine yesterday, and even this morning, but then someone started causing trouble at lunchtime. Do you think that's normal?"
This is definitely not normal.
Jiang Shenglian nodded without even thinking: "Big sister, you kept this so secret, yet someone still managed to make a move in secret. That means this person must be someone you trust very much at the factory, and they must have noticed some clues from you."
"Actually, I've thought about that too."
Zhao Nianmeng sighed, ignoring the workers' murmurs.
"To be honest, Qianqian would never have said anything like that. After all, she benefited from the restructuring of our factory, and given our relationship, she would never have said anything like that at the time."
After hesitating for a long time, Zhao Nianmeng finally spoke.
"Besides that, only Team Leader Lin is left."
Although he hadn't suspected Lin Jiafu before, after today's incident, he now suspected Lin Jiafu.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Sheng glanced at Zhao Nianmeng with some surprise, not expecting his elder sister to think this way this time.
Given his elder sister's trust in Lin Jiafu, he shouldn't think that way.
But the fact that she said that today means that Lin Jiafu is no longer trusted by the eldest sister.
"In any case, after this incident, my elder sister must be more vigilant, never wrong an innocent person, and never let anyone with ulterior motives go unpunished!"
The siblings chatted about it, and before long, they had ridden their bicycles home.
A few days ago, Zhao Xuehui was busy working overtime at the radio station. Although she wanted to ask Jiang Sheng about the publication of her poems, she didn't have the time or the opportunity to ask.
When the two returned this time, Zhao Xuehui had just parked her bicycle in the yard.
Seeing the two siblings return side by side, chatting and laughing, Zhao Xuehui couldn't help but pout in jealousy.
"I think some people only care about their eldest sister now, and they don't even care about me, their second sister!"
Upon hearing Zhao Xuehui's words, Jiang Sheng, seeing her fierce expression, quickly surrendered, his words filled with a strong desire to survive.
"Oh dear, of course I care about my second sister! She's not working overtime today, so how about I invite her out for dinner later?"
Zhao Xuehui chuckled at the joke, then got back to the serious business.
"Alright, alright, I know you care about me, but on another note, you handled the publication of your poems so quietly. If I hadn't seen the magazines and newspapers, I wouldn't have known at all!"
When the topic of poetry came up, Jiang Sheng scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly and chuckled at his two older sisters.
