Chapter 298: Talking Badly Behind Someone’s Back
Chen Yi rested at home for two days. She felt quite comfortable at first, but found it boring after staying there for too long.
That’s right. I’m used to going to work every day. What’s the point of staying at home suddenly?
It would be better for me to go to the factory and work, but I’m already on vacation and can’t go anymore.
She looked at the time and it was already past nine in the morning. After thinking for a while, she changed her clothes and went to a factory.
The guard already knew her, and when he heard that she was looking for Ma Li, he immediately informed her.
"Director Chen, please come in and sit for a while. The sun is very strong outside." He saw that the woman was pregnant and there was no one else in the room, so it would be okay for her to sit for a while.
Chen Yi nodded in agreement. The sun outside was indeed very strong. Although it was not yet ten o'clock, it was already very hot.
I guess it will be cooler around three or four in the afternoon.
Although the Northeast is not as hot as the South, the sun is still very strong, and it is only because of the wind that it seems cooler.
After waiting for about five minutes, Ma Li finally came over. Maybe she was in a hurry, and her forehead was covered with sweat.
"Chen Yi, it's really you. How come you have time to come and see me?" She had a smile on her face. Both of them were busy with work and hadn't seen each other for a long time.
Hearing this, Chen Yi smiled and replied, "I'm going to take a vacation because I'm about to give birth. I'm staying at home and have nothing to do, so why come to see you?"
They are also pretty good friends, so there is no need to worry about anything when chatting. Even if they haven't seen each other for a long time, the relationship is still there.
Ma Li looked at the time and said, "Let's go sit across from each other for a while. I don't have anything to do there."
Chen Yi nodded in agreement and wanted to call Fang Xiaoli, whom she hadn't seen for a long time.
"She's sick and has been on leave for two days." Ma Li explained: "I haven't seen her come to work these two days. How about we go see her later? But the sun is too strong now."
She was afraid that Chen Yi's body wouldn't be able to handle it. As a woman and a mother, she knew the hardships of late pregnancy.
A little bit of tiredness can make people feel very uncomfortable, especially in the hot summer.
Chen Yi was a little surprised when she heard this. She didn't expect that someone would be sick. After thinking about it, she felt that what she said was right, so she agreed to go see Fang Xiaoli together after get off work in the afternoon.
The two men came to the state-owned restaurant opposite, bought two bottles of soda outside, and each ordered a bowl of noodles to eat.
It’s really hard to eat anything else on such a hot day, so noodles are better. Rinse them with cold water and mix them with cucumber shreds and meat sauce. They are especially delicious.
The two of them ate with gusto, talking about recent events from time to time. There are always endless topics to talk about when friends are together.
After finishing her meal, Ma Li took a big sip of soda and said, "Hey? You are the factory director now. You also went to the mid-year meeting last time, right?"
Hearing her words, Chen Yi nodded, "What's wrong?"
As the deputy factory director, of course I have to attend such meetings. Usually, the factory director and deputy factory director go, and occasionally the directors of important departments will also go.
Ma Li smiled and replied, "I heard that Director Lin is in trouble. There have been people coming to investigate these past two days, and Director Lin has not come to work."
Director Li Ce has taken it very seriously ever since what happened at the meeting, especially since it was mentioned at the meeting. If it is not dealt with seriously, who would dare to question it in the future?
So someone came to investigate that afternoon, which was normal.
Now it’s not that Lin Yuying doesn’t want to go to work, nor that she doesn’t want to, she just doesn’t want him to go to work at all.
Now all the affairs of the factory are managed by Zhang Wenhai. There is no other way. They only have two factory directors, and if one leaves, the other will take over.
Hearing this, Chen Yi asked, "Is there any result?"
The investigation has been going on for two days, so there should be results in just one day, right?
Could it be that he was obstructed?
Considering that Lin Yuying came in through the back door, this is not impossible.
"No, I didn't see anyone coming today. I don't know what's going on." Ma Li shook her head. It was impossible for her to squat at the door of the factory director's office all day. She also had work to do.
The two men didn't talk about Director Lin anymore, but someone suddenly came in at the door.
"What rights do you have to talk bad about others behind their backs!" Lin Fang stood at the door with an angry look on her face, pointing at their table.
Chen Yi felt a little puzzled, but it was not good to be heard by others when speaking ill of others.
But I'm telling the truth, so what are you afraid of?
"So what if I told you?" Ma Li was also frightened just now, but she was not afraid.
"You!" Lin Fang gritted her teeth and looked at her and said, "My uncle will be fine! When he comes back, he will fire you first! You will be the one to say bad things about others behind their backs!"
Seeing her indignant look, if you didn't know her, you would think she was very righteous.
Ma Li smiled and replied, "Really? Director Lin is so powerful! I want to see who dares to fire me. I have worked in the factory for ten years. Do you think you can fire me just because you want? Not to mention that he is the director, even the king of heaven can't fire me!"
She is an old backbone of the factory. Not to mention her length of service, she has made a lot of contributions.
He is the deputy director now, but he can still compete in the future. With such ability, how can he be fired so easily?
Lin Fang didn't care about that. She believed that Lin Yuying would be fine!
"Director Lin," Chen Yi looked at her calmly and said, "You're not worried about yourself now, but you're still concerned about your uncle's affairs?"
"What do you mean?" Lin Fang's face turned very unhappy when he heard her words.
Could it be that Zhang Wenhai should fire her? Impossible! Although she didn't have much performance, she was working normally and didn't make any mistakes. Why should she be fired?
Chen Yi smiled and said, "I guess you got in through the back door with the help of your uncle, right? Now you see no one is watching over you. When Director Lin's affairs are dealt with, do you think you will be better off?"
You know what, these words really scared Lin Fang.
The two people are relatives, and they originally got in through Lin Yuying's relationship. Now after hearing this, isn't that the case?
"You, what right do you have to say that! I'm a college student." Lin Fang suddenly remembered that her academic qualifications were real.
Although his graduation results were not good, he was a serious college student and this cannot be faked.
Thinking of this, she straightened her back immediately.
Even if she got in through connections, she still has academic qualifications!
Chen Yi shook her head upon hearing this. "You are so naive. No matter you are a college student or a graduate student, as long as you came in through the back door, you will be dismissed. Do you think this is a game? This is a state-owned factory, not yours."
At the end of her words, she had a serious expression on her face.
Sure enough, Lin Fang's face was pale, and it was obvious that she was frightened.
I didn't expect that when I went out for a meal, not only would I run into them, but I would also be scared.
But what they said was not just to scare her.
Although Lin Fang is impatient, she is not a fool, otherwise she would not have been able to get into university.
Thinking of this, her heart sank...
