"Tell me, I'm working hard every day and sticking to my post. Who did I offend?" Old Mrs. Xia was upset and complained to several people in the compound.
Zheng Qianlan smiled as she looked at Qiao Shan and Yu Yan, who were sitting side by side. Qiao Shan was even carefully peeling melon seeds for her. "Sister Xia, if it really doesn't work out, just do what you want. You can still be the director for a few more years. You'll be retiring soon, so why bother with him?"
Yu Yan disagreed with this point of view. "Mom, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand. Aunt Xia is considering the future of us female comrades. If she does it now without caring about anything and angers some shady villains, and then suppresses us tightly, then Aunt Xia will become a sinner, right?"
Xu Meiyu didn't know when she developed the bad habit of running here on her days off. Hearing this, she nodded and said, "We still need to find out who is behind this and what their purpose is.
If what you said isn't a problem with the factory manager in the neighboring city, then it means someone here resents you."
Jiang Wenhua secretly took Fang Yingdi's hand and exchanged glances, "I do know that our factory's deputy director, Tian, has contributed to this, but... he's probably not the main person involved. He's just a troublemaker. He hopes the factory will be as chaotic as possible."
Chen Xiangbei looked left and saw Qiao Shan and his couple, and looked right and saw Jiang Wenhua and his couple. No matter which side he looked at, he felt unhappy. How could people like them find a partner?
He looked down at the ant angrily.
Fang Yingdi sat upright on a small stool. "We've been investigating for so long, and I feel like a lot of people will be implicated. If all else fails, we'll just proceed as usual. If anyone tries to stop us, we'll report it to the Women's Federation. We'll confront them head-on, and we won't be afraid of anyone."
Xu Meiyu smiled, "Sister Xia, your little comrade is quite good, quite brave. Aren't you afraid of offending others?"
Fang Yingdi said in a deep voice, "How can I get things done if I'm afraid of this and that? I'm in this position and I have to do what I should do. If someone yells at me and I become too timid to move, then I might as well just hide back home and not go to work or make any progress."
Old Lady Xia looked at her and smiled with satisfaction, "Look, what a great girl."
Xu Meiyu: "I think her method is feasible. If it drags on for another year or two, you, Sister Xia, can retire. It's better to try to find a way out. Even if you are targeted by them, you can let this girl take over after you retire.
Those leaders are not young anymore, and they will retire in a few years, and by then everyone will be young.”
Old Mrs. Xia was also very satisfied with Fang Yingdi. This girl used to be dragged down by her family and her mind was not clear, but now she follows her from house to house, and she speaks and acts in a measured and organized manner. The most precious thing is that her heart is becoming more and more pure, which makes her happy just looking at her.
"Xiao Fang, do you want to sit in my seat?"
Fang Yingdi said without hesitation, "Of course I do. It's so hypocritical to say I don't want to. Not only do I want to take Comrade Xia's position, I'm also very confident that I can handle the pressure. But I have to wait a few years. I'm still too young."
Xu Meiyu also laughed. "You are such a boastful young comrade, but it's really nice of you to be so generous. If they don't let you take Sister Xia's seat, you can come to my side and help me, okay?"
Old Man Xia coughed and said, "What's going on? Are they trying to snatch someone away right in front of me?"
Everyone burst into laughter.
Seeing Chen Xiangbei looking depressed, Jiang Wenhua, as a caring brother, felt that he had to enlighten him.
The two walked out arm in arm, "What's going on? It's been several days and you're still upset?"
Chen Xiangbei: "...You are happy, leaving me alone to herd cattle in the village."
Jiang Wenhua: "What nonsense are you talking about? Isn't it just that you wanted to date someone but got rejected?"
Chen Xiangbei was shocked: "How did you know? Did Director Song tell you?"
Jiang Wenhua smiled awkwardly, "Well, when you were talking to Qiao Yi that day, I happened to pass by there."
Caught off guard by this news, Chen Xiangbei felt devastated. He thought no one knew about it, so he said sternly, "You are not allowed to tell anyone else."
Jiang Wenhua sighed, "Isn't she just a lesbian? If I reject you, you can find someone better next time."
Chen Xiangbei: "No, no one is better than her."
Jiang Wenhua: "Then you should work hard to improve yourself and let him see how capable you are. Then he will regret rejecting you."
Chen Xiangbei: "No, I can't bear to see her unhappy."
Jiang Wenhua: "Then you are better and more capable than the gay man she wants to date, so she feels that she has no choice but to be with you."
Chen Xiangbei: "There will always be someone better than me. I can never be the best."
Jiang Wenhua: "Even someone better than you might not necessarily be attracted to Comrade Qiao."
Chen Xiangbei: "You're talking nonsense. Who would look down on a girl as good as Qiao Yi?"
Jiang Wenhua pointed at herself and said, "As for me, I like Comrade Xiao Fang. She is quick in scolding people and efficient in doing things. I feel happy when I see her."
Chen Xiangbei: "Get lost."
Jiang Wenhua smiled and said, "As the saying goes, a strong woman is afraid of a clinging man~"
Chen Xiangbei: "You are filthy! Anyone who pesters a female lesbian is a hooligans."
Jiang Wenhua: "I'm so filthy, Chen Xiangbei, you're a kid? Chasing a lesbian is always tricky. Even I know to give Xiao Fang gifts and take her to eat at state-owned restaurants. And you, all you know is to say dryly, "Be my partner," Qiao Yi. Which woman would dare to date you with that attitude?"
Chen Xiangbei's eyes lit up. "So, she rejected me because I wasn't very nice to her. Not only did I not take her out to dinner, but I also often ate with her?"
Jiang Wenhua: "This is crazy, Chen Xiangbei, are you a child? You are so shameless as to eat the food of the lesbian you like, and she actually lets you eat it too?"
Chen Xiangbei's face was filled with shame. "I was starving before, and I just wanted to eat as much as I could. Who knew it would turn out like this?"
He humbly asked the experienced Jiang Wenhua for advice, "Brother Jiang, can you teach me how to pursue a lesbian?"
Jiang Wenhua raised his head immediately, pointed at his shoulder, and said to Qiao: "Oh, why are my shoulders a little sore after standing for so long?"
Chen Xiangbei went up to him and massaged his shoulders and back. "Brother, teach me. From now on, you are my real brother. I will listen to you in everything."
Jiang Wenhua teased him, "Who will you listen to from now on, Qiao Yi or me?"
Chen Xiangbei said firmly: "Listen to Qiao Yi."
Jiang Wenhua opened his mouth and then closed it again. It couldn't be said that it was wrong, but he just said that he should listen to him in everything, but now he changed his tone, which made him feel depressed.
They were chatting animatedly when Chen Xiangdong, who hadn't been seen for a long time, rushed in and grabbed Chen Xiangbei's hand, "Third brother, come back with me quickly, something happened to Dad."
