Lu Shuji was speechless, but still scolded Zhu Xingui: "What are you doing?"
Zhu Xinggui immediately withdrew his gaze and said aggrievedly, "Lu Shuji, let me tell you, Zhang Lianhe and Secretary Xu are in cahoots. They're very close, so of course he'll speak up for him. I'm innocent, it really wasn't me who cheated."
At this time, as long as you refuse to admit it, no one can do anything to you.
It was a bit difficult at this time. One reason was what Zhu Xinggui said, that they were close and testifying could not be considered.
Another thing is that as long as he doesn't admit it, no one can force him to confess.
It was just a can, but it caused such a big fuss.
At this time, Lu Shuji looked at the two of them with some displeasure.
After all, who likes troublemakers?
Besides, they came out to work on a project, not for a spring outing!
Xu Xiangyang naturally noticed Lu Shuji's eyes, but he didn't care too much.
"Okay, this matter is over. Secretary Xu, you can go to the office to collect your loss." Lu Shuji obviously didn't want to make too big a fuss.
There is still a lot of work that has not been arranged in the afternoon. If we delay any further, it will waste everyone's time.
When Zhu Xinggui, who was standing next to him, heard that the matter was over, he felt a little happy, but he also felt that it was not worth it for him to get beaten.
A can of food in exchange for a beating, it's inappropriate no matter how you look at it.
However, he didn't dare to express any more opinions, for fear of upsetting his leader.
But Xu Xiangyang didn't care about the money for that can of food, he wanted to get rid of the problem once and for all!
"Lu Shuji, wait a moment." He suddenly spoke.
Lu Shuji in front was about to turn around and leave, but when he heard him talking again, he immediately felt even more unhappy. Why would this guy never stop talking?
"What's wrong?" He turned around and said with an unhappy look, "Secretary Xu, that's enough. There are so many people here waiting to eat and start work. If we don't work in the afternoon, who will be responsible for the loss of income?"
His words were a bit harsh, and everyone else thought it was better to just let it go, since someone was going to pay the money anyway.
Besides, Zhu Xinggui was also beaten, so he had already vented his anger.
Cao Yajun, who had just arrived, couldn't help but worry for Xu Xiangyang after hearing other people's explanations.
Not to mention his relationship with Lu Shuji, even if Xu Xiangyang really got into trouble, he would have to consider the situation before helping.
But this matter was mediated by Lu Shuji, and he had no way to intervene. He could only hope that Xu Xiangyang would fend for himself.
After hearing what Lu Shuji said, Xu Xiangyang replied solemnly, "Lu Shuji, I don't dare delay the progress, but he stole my wallet, which contains my family's savings. I can't just let it go like this, but since Lu Shuji has spoken, I'll have him return the wallet to me. This is the least I can accept."
wallet?
Lu Shuji glanced at Zhu Xingui. This guy not only stole food, but also stole money?
When hearing the words "the whole family's savings", everyone knows that the money must be considerable.
Zhu Xingui reacted and immediately said, "Nonsense! I didn't steal the money! Don't frame a good person!"
This time his tone was firm and he seemed particularly reasonable.
Others didn't quite believe it. After all, this person was dishonest. Although they had never heard of him stealing money, it was not impossible.
"Framing a good person? Let's not talk about whether what I said is true or not. Just the word "good person", can you bear the responsibility?" Xu Xiangyang looked at him sarcastically, with no concealment in his eyes.
Everyone else wanted to applaud this, but the leader was here, so who dared?
Lu Shuji frowned, looked at Xu Xiangyang and said, "Since you are so sure, you must produce evidence."
Since the thing has happened, let's solve it quickly and don't delay the afternoon work.
Xu Xiangyang nodded, looked at the person opposite him, and said, "Then you say I'm framing you, do you dare to let someone search you?"
"What's there to be afraid of? Search me!" Zhu Xinggui was eager to prove his innocence and immediately stood up to be searched.
Lu Shuji was afraid that they would do something weird again, so he asked someone to come and help search them.
Zhu Xinggui didn't care about the person personally selected by the leader, as long as he didn't know someone Xu Xiangyang, so as to avoid them framing him.
"Found it." The man took out a black leather wallet from Zhu Xinggui's coat pocket. It was obviously a wallet.
"What?!" Zhu Xinggui was stunned and looked at the wallet in disbelief.
"How, how is this possible?" He didn't steal any wallet at all, so how could a wallet appear in his pocket?
He turned to look at Xu Xiangyang, and seeing that he was not looking at him, he quickly tried to find an opportunity in his mind.
"That wallet is mine!" Zhu Xinggui tried to grab it, but the man dodged him and handed it to Lu Shuji.
"Yours? What are you afraid of?" Lu Shuji's face was gloomy, and then he opened his wallet in front of everyone.
There were a small dozen large unity coins in it, estimated to be several hundred.
My goodness, who goes out with so much money?
Everyone around was very surprised, especially Zhu Xinggui. How could he not remember taking such a wallet?
Xu Xiangyang must have put it on him on purpose! It must be like this.
But when he saw so much money, greed flashed in his eyes. How wonderful it would be if all the money was his in the morning.
Thinking of this, he glanced at Xu Xiangyang next to him. What a fool! He actually put so much money in it. I won’t be polite!
"Lu Shuji, this is my wallet. How did it become Secretary Xu's? He wants my wallet and wants to get away with it!" he said pitifully.
It was as if he had suffered a great injustice and had no place to seek redress.
When Lu Shuji saw the wallet, he looked at Xu Xiangyang with a complicated expression, then turned to Zhu Xingui and said, "Are you sure this wallet is yours?"
His tone was bad, even a little helpless.
Zhu Xinggui couldn't care less about that now. His eyes turned red when he saw the big unity in his wallet.
"It's mine, it's mine!" He insisted that the wallet was his.
Lu Shuji's face darkened. He turned the wallet inside out and asked, "If it's your wallet, why is there Secretary Xu's photo in it?"
There was clearly a black and white photo in the crack inside the wallet, and it was indeed a photo of Xu Xiangyang.
He looks handsome and suave...
Suddenly, people around started whispering. Not only Zhu Xinggui was jealous of the wallet, but everyone else was the same.
But they know what shame is, and they actually insisted that other people's wallets are theirs in front of their leaders.
This time Zhu Xinggui couldn't explain himself, but he still resisted, "Secretary Xu deliberately framed me. He put it in my pocket."
No one knew what he said, or whether it was the wallet or the photo that Xu Xiangyang put in his pocket, nor did anyone care to know.
How could Lu Shuji listen to his explanation? He said to Cao Yajun beside him, "Bring the person downstairs."
As for what he was going to do specifically, he didn't say anything more.
Lu Shuji returned the wallet to Xu Xiangyang and glanced at him with an inexplicable look in his eyes...
