Two people in the office quarreled without any restraint, and the people outside were forced to eat a mouthful of melon!
The security department came very quickly. Two old men in uniform rushed in without even knocking on the door.
He happened to run into Lin Yaqin with disheveled hair, making a scene and pointing at Li Mingyuan's nose and swearing at him, while Li Mingyuan stood there with a face as dark as Bao Gong's.
"Director Li, this...how did it become like this?" Old Zhao from the Security Department was a little panicked, not knowing whether to persuade or pull away first.
"Get her out of here right now!"
Li Mingyuan pointed at Lin Yaqin, his voice cracking with anger, his hands shaking. "Get out now! She will never be allowed to set foot in this building again without proper procedures!"
Lin Yaqin wanted to struggle a few more times and make a few more excuses, but two security guards grabbed her arms, one on each side, and dragged her out like a chicken.
Her feet were off the ground, and she could only struggle and turn her head to cry: "Mingyuan! Listen to me! I really know I was wrong! Please believe me——"
The person was dragged away, and the noise faded away. The office was eerily silent, with only Li Mingyuan's heavy breathing remaining.
The group of onlookers outside the door stretched their necks to look inside, winking at each other and whispering.
That look made Li Mingyuan's back ache.
He took several deep breaths before he suppressed the evil fire.
He turned and stared at Captain Wang, the head of the security department, and his words were like ice chips: "Captain Wang, how come the security department is useless?
Can all cats and dogs be allowed in?
Is this government building a market? Anyone can come in and walk around and bargain?
Captain Wang was so scolded that sweat broke out on his forehead. He quickly bent down to explain, "Director Li, I'm sorry! I'm really sorry! It's our fault for not doing our job well!
But…but just now…it was Deputy Director Zhang Wei from your department who personally brought her in. He even gave the security guard a guarantee, saying…that your wife had an emergency at home…so we…”
Li Mingyuan's gaze flicked to Zhang Wei, who was still pretending to look through documents with his head down.
Zhang Wei felt that the gaze was fixed on him, and his heart was filled with fear, while his face was instantly filled with surprise and injustice.
He came over jogging, slapped his thigh, and said in a heartfelt voice:
"Director Li! I'm innocent! This is all a huge misunderstanding!" He seemed extremely upset. "I ran into... Comrade Lin at the gate. She said you were a family member and she had something urgent to discuss with you.
I've seen her deliver something to you before, and this time she sounded tearful and urgent. The security guard stopped her and questioned her according to regulations, so I wanted to make sure I didn't delay your important matter, so I kindly helped her and brought her in...
I really didn't know! I really didn't know you two had already...already divorced! If I had known, I wouldn't have dared to say anything about it even if I had a hundred guts!
Look at what I did... I meant well but ended up with bad results, causing you nothing but trouble!
Director Li, please be magnanimous and don't take it personally. I sincerely apologize to you!"
These words were said so perfectly that he cleared himself of all charges and became innocent!
Li Mingyuan knew clearly that Zhang Wei was doing it on purpose. He always tried to trip him up everywhere. This time, when he got the chance, he tried his best to disgust him.
But he had never mentioned divorce at work, which gave Zhang Wei the opportunity to take advantage of him. Now he was in a state of confusion, unable to express his pain.
Li Mingyuan's breath was stuck in his throat, unable to move up or down. His face turned pale, but he couldn't find any obvious evidence against Zhang Wei. He could only vent his anger on the security department again:
"The rules are written in black and white! They're not posted on the wall for people to see! No matter who brings in, anyone without an identity or permits will be turned away according to the rules! Today's incident is a typical example!
"From now on, we must strictly follow the rules. No one's greetings will work! If this happens again, Captain Wang, your tenure as captain will be over!"
"Yes, yes, yes! Director Li, you are right in your criticism! We will definitely reflect deeply on it! There will definitely not be a next time!" Captain Wang nodded and bowed, swearing and promising.
Li Mingyuan waved his hands tiredly and disgustedly, and kicked everyone out.
I feel so helpless in the office!
Li Mingyuan didn't go home after work, but rode his bike into Li Guifang's yard early. Before he could even stand still, Li Guifang saw him and the anger she had been suppressing for so long suddenly flared up again. She threw the rag in the basin:
"You still remember to get back here? I thought you were bewitched by that vixen and went off to live with her!" Li Mingyuan was completely confused by this nonsensical scolding. Could it be that...
Li Guifang was even more furious when she saw his bewildered look. She pointed at his nose and cursed:
"Look at that plague god you summoned! He even went to the school gate and openly snatched the children! He was pulling and tugging, crying and howling!
If I hadn't happened to see it and tried my best to protect the child, she might have snatched the child away!
Look how scared the kids are! Shuhang and Shuduo are still huddled in the room, trembling and unable to speak complete sentences!
What the hell are you doing as a father?! Do you have to wait until you have a third child with him without telling me before you tell me?!
Li Mingyuan was already feeling frustrated, and as soon as he entered the room, he was scolded by Li Guifang.
The little bit of spirit he had been trying to hold on to was instantly deflated. Fatigue, irritability, fear, and grievance suddenly surged up, and he blurted out:
"She even made a scene at my workplace today! She stormed into my office in broad daylight and started throwing a tantrum!
She slammed the table and smashed things! Everyone in the entire office building craned their necks to watch! She made me lose face!
I should have known she would harm the child! I should have reported it to the police!
"What?!" Li Guifang's voice suddenly rose, her eyes widened, she couldn't believe her ears, "She dared to make trouble at your workplace?! You...you guys..."
She was so angry that her fingers trembled. She pointed at Li Mingyuan and could not speak clearly: "Look at you! Huh? One or two of you! Such a big thing happened, and you are all as shut as clams!
You've even learned to hide things from me? How capable are you?!"
"I was blocked at the office door today and laughed at by people. What do you call that?
How can you let a child scream and cry for his parents at the school gate? Huh?!"
"Such a big thing, if I hadn't caught you today, would you have kept it a secret from me until you died?
Do you still have me as your mother?! Do you really think I'm old and confused, deaf and blind?!"
Li Guifang became more and more excited as she spoke, her chest heaving violently like a bellows. She felt sorry for the child who was frightened, and she hated Li Ming for not living up to her expectations!
He wanted to dig his fingers into Li Mingyuan's eye sockets and dig out his eyeballs to serve him wine.
