Chapter 35: Being Angry to Death Isn't Considered a Work Injury
"I asked you to send her off. Director Lu has asked me to transfer Xiao Taozi to another class." Principal Lin poked Lin Meihua's head.
"How is that possible? He even smiled at me."
Director Lin didn't want to continue to be entangled with this brainless niece.
"Meihua, if you want to get close to Director Lu, you have to take good care of Xiao Taozi. Director Lu values her very much."
"Humph, he's just an adopted child. You, take that seat!"
Lin Meihua pointed stiffly to an empty seat in the corner and asked Xiao Taozi to sit there.
Little Taozi held back her tears, walked over with her short legs, and sat down on the small bench.
She misses her mother, what should she do?
But my mother said that I can’t cry on the first day of school.
"Meihua, don't be willful. Listen to your aunt's advice and take good care of her."
How could I not be concerned when Director Lu personally held the child and sent him here?
My niece is pretty, but she is not very smart.
If you offend this little girl, not to mention marrying Director Lu, you might not even be able to keep your job.
Lin Meihua glanced at Xiao Taozi who was sitting stupidly on the stool.
Humph, you look like a fool, but you are the one who makes everything happen by yourself.
"Don't worry, Auntie. I will find more opportunities to report the child's situation to Director Lu."
As for how to report, isn't it her who has the final say?
Director Lin shook his head helplessly. There was nothing he could do if he refused to listen.

After settling his daughter down, Lu Liangchen went back to work. He was very busy this morning.
Little did he know that in just one morning, rumors about him were flying everywhere.
As a result, Director Hu heard it in the afternoon.
Director Hu had to go find Lu Liangchen.
"You kid, you're not married yet you're showing off in public with a child in your arms. Are you afraid that it will be too easy for an old bachelor to find a wife, so you're setting up obstacles?" Director Hu scolded Lu Liangchen angrily when he saw him.
Lu Liangchen thought to himself: Director Hu, you don’t understand. Whether I can get married depends on my daughter’s ability.
But he couldn't say that, so he could only pour water for Director Hu and greet him carefully.
"Don't be angry, my daughter, if I don't send her off, who else will? How can this be considered ostentatious?"
"You..." Director Hu didn't know how to respond.
When we first proposed adopting the child, no one objected, and some even praised it, because he was the orphan of a comrade-in-arms.
But no one expected that having another child would lead to so much gossip.
Now it seems that I haven't given enough consideration.
I don’t know if it will delay this brat’s lifelong event.
"There's a rumor in the factory that you, like Li Shengli, got married in your hometown and abandoned your wife and daughter!" Director Hu said in a teasing tone.
This brat, let him show off, now it’s okay, right?
They are all compared with scumbags like Lee Seung-ri.
Thinking of Li Shengli, Director Hu became even more angry.
Li Shengli is too cunning. So far, no strong evidence has been found for his impersonation of a martyr.
"By the way, Liang Suya asked for leave this morning, saying that Li Shengli was beaten last night."
Director Hu stared at Lu Liangchen intently.
He felt that this matter was related to this brat, but he couldn't figure out the motive.
"It's good to get beaten! I wonder which hero came to help me?"
Lu Liangchen was calm but with a hint of schadenfreude.
"I went to the hospital for a checkup and they didn't find any injuries, but he just said it hurts. What do you think?"
This is why Director Hu suspects Lu Liangchen. It is not possible for an ordinary person to be beaten without leaving any marks.
"Are you pretending to be sick because you are too embarrassed to see anyone?" Lu Liangchen continued to muddy the waters.
Director Hu thought about it and felt that it was impossible. Isn't it a bit late to pretend to be sick now?
If it wasn't done by Lu Liangchen, could it be that he encountered evil spirits when he went out at night?
Although we are not allowed to talk about supernatural things these days, if you do too many bad things, you may end up doing something bad!
"Li Shengli is still the deputy director. Director Hu, are you confident in employing such a person?" Lu Liangchen said as he approached Director Hu.
"I know my limits and have been looking for evidence. Stop worrying about others and tell me how to deal with your rumors."
"What's fake can't be real, and what's real can't be fake. I'll stop talking about it for a few days."
Lu Liangchen sat down opposite Director Hu, looking nonchalant.
But before Director Hu could say anything, he flattered his face and said, "Otherwise, just say that I really got married, but my wife died, so I took my daughter in."
Lu Liangchen felt that if this rumor spread, he would be widowed and Jiang Haitang would be divorced, and there would be less resistance for the two of them to be together.
Director Hu's blood pressure soared after being so angry at Lu Liangchen's words. He was stunned for a long time and couldn't say a word.
How can you say something like "getting married"? And you even say your wife is gone?
A good unmarried young man suddenly became a widower. Is this something a normal person could imagine?
This kid is becoming more and more of a bastard!
He gasped for a while, and finally couldn't help but grabbed a notebook next to him and threw it at Lu Liangchen.
Lu Liangchen nimbly caught the notebook and put it back on the table.
"Anger is harmful to your health. It's not good for your health."
"Luckily he's not my son, otherwise he would be pissed off sooner or later. Go tell your father about this if you have the guts."
Director Hu took a big gulp of water to calm himself down, thinking to himself that compared to this bastard, his family members were much more well-behaved.
He has to ask Lao Lu to reimburse him for the quick-acting heart pills.
"I can't explain to everyone one by one that I adopted a daughter, right?"
"Why can't you explain it? You adopted your comrade's daughter. It's a good thing. You should publicize it."
"I'm afraid of adopting someone. I'm afraid other people will bully my daughter and cause her psychological trauma."
Lu Liangchen played with his slender fingers and said as a matter of course.
There is a difference between an adopted daughter and a biological daughter.
Aren’t there many cases in this world where people treat others differently based on their behavior?
"That child is an orphan of a martyr. Who can bully her?"
"If no one bullies her, can I adopt her?" Lu Liangchen said confidently.
"You haven't seen that child. She's so skinny she's just skin and bones. She's over three years old, but she looks younger than other two-year-olds. Looking at her, I feel like she's betrayed Old Tian's last wish."
When Lu Liangchen said this, he no longer looked so nonchalant, and tears almost fell from his eyes.
Although Director Hu felt uncomfortable, he still refuted.
"That was in the past. You were the deputy factory director. Who would have nothing better to do than let a kid bully your daughter?"
After scolding him, Director Hu was still worried and warned him again: "I'm warning you, don't talk nonsense outside. Don't worry about this matter. Don't say a word."
Director Hu had a headache. He rubbed his temples and planned to go back to his office.
Being angry to death is not considered a work injury.
Before leaving, he thought of something and said, "Bring the child to my house after get off work. Your aunt wants to see the child."
"Okay, I'll take the kids over after get off work. Uncle Hu, can I bring someone else?"
