Huo Xiao smiled and pointed at Feng Yu:
"See that crazy woman? Go teach her a lesson."
Lu Xiuwen hesitated: "Isn't it wrong to hit someone?"
"Then you won't have another chance. Didn't you always say that Boss Lu is your sister? She slandered your sister, shouldn't you teach her a lesson?" Huo Xiao provoked him.
In order to get money from Lu Wanqing, he was determined to go all out. He clenched his fists, cheered himself on, and then walked towards Feng Yu with all his might.
Without saying a word, he slapped Feng Yu across the face.
"You dare slander my sister!"
Feng Yu covered her face in bewilderment, "Who's your sister?"
But the relentless punches left her speechless.
Just as Lu Xiuwen was reprimanding Feng Yu, Huo Xiao snatched all the flyers from her hands and warned whoever had the flyers to hand them back to him immediately and not to say a word about them, or else he would be fired from the factory.
Despite his handsome appearance, Huo Xiao is decisive and ruthless in his actions, and everyone in the factory is afraid of him.
Those who were engrossed in reading the flyers shoved them into his hands like mice seeing a cat.
Only Huaihua secretly stuffed the leaflet into her pocket and slipped away like an eel.
My goodness, city people really know how to have fun. Lu Wanqing must be a heartthrob, and yet another man has fallen for her.
But what's wrong with Lu Xiuwen? Why is he helping him too?
However, with Huo Xiao around, it's best for her to stay away.
"Call the police right now! Someone's been killed!"
Feng Yu was beaten black and blue and begged for mercy from the people around him.
Unfortunately, she caused trouble by running wild at the factory gate, and who would care about such a trivial matter?
Whoever reports the crime will have to give a statement; isn't that just asking for trouble?
Everyone pretended not to see and hurried away.
Lu Xiuwen's long-accumulated resentment was completely released at this moment, and he beat Feng Yu half to death.
Seeing her lying on the ground, unable to move, he ran to Huo Xiao to boast of his success:
"Now, I can see Director Lu... right?"
Huo Xiao chuckled inwardly: "Come with me."
Feng Yu lay on the ground like a dead dog, begging someone to call the police.
She didn't know how much time had passed, it was already dark, and the police still hadn't arrived. She had no choice but to endure the pain, stand up, and slowly walk towards the police station.
At this moment, Lu Xiuwen finally entered the factory and was able to speak with Lu Wanqing.
At first, he was quite reserved, saying that the two of them had grown up together and shouldn't be too distant.
As soon as Lu Wanqing asked Huo Xiao to pour her some tea, she started to take advantage of the situation and brought up the matter of borrowing money.
"That's easy to explain. Several people in your family earn money, so how come you're still short of cash?" she asked, feigning concern, as if to say something that might be bothering you and make you happy.
Lu Xiuwen began to complain.
They said things like Lu Aiguo died in a work accident, Lu Xiuwu was an alcoholic, Zhang Guixiang was sick every few days, and his wife had to quit her job to take care of the children—basically, they described everything as tragic.
Lu Wanqing appeared to be frowning, but inwardly she was overjoyed.
She wouldn't be at ease until they were doing badly!
"There should be compensation for death due to a work injury. Surely we shouldn't be left without money?" She felt that things were not as simple as they seemed.
Seeing that Lu Wanqing was determined to get to the bottom of things, he had no choice but to admit with a forced smile that he owed a loan shark a thousand yuan because of gambling.
"The repayment date is coming soon, and if I don't pay, they're going to chop off my hand!" he said truthfully.
Damn it, they only borrowed five hundred, but they insist on paying back a thousand. What a bunch of robbers!
Upon hearing this, Lu Wanqing thought with disdain, "He's still a college student, and he's done something like this! It would be good if he chopped off his hand, so he wouldn't gamble again in the future."
But whether she gambled or not was none of her business; instead, she asked for the loan shark's contact information.
"If the factory runs into cash flow problems, we can borrow money from them," she casually made up an excuse.
Lu Xiuwen got up to leave, advising her not to borrow money from them, saying that those people were ruthless and would not pay back their debts, and that they would really beat people up.
She watched his departing figure, shook her head and smiled. Of course, she knew that the loan sharks' thugs were not to be trifled with; she was just trying to add fuel to the fire.
She took out two hundred yuan and handed it to Huo Xiao, telling him to contact loan sharks and tell them not to show any mercy to Lu Xiuwen.
Lu Xiuwen returned home feeling elated. In front of Yu Lili, he finally felt triumphant and patted his chest, saying that he had done Lu Wanqing a great favor this time, and that she had agreed to lend him a thousand yuan.
"Is Lu Wanqing really that rich? She can lend a thousand yuan so easily?" Yu Lili still couldn't quite believe it.
A thousand yuan is two years' salary for him.
Lu Xiuwen mocked her for having long hair but short wits:
"She's the factory manager, I heard she spent three million to buy it, do you think she has the money?"
Yu Lili refused to admit that she was rich, saying sourly that the factory being rich didn't mean she was rich.
No sooner had he finished speaking than a commotion broke out outside, and several police officers in neat uniforms were led to the front door of the house.
"Officer, Lu Xiuwen lives here." The man was a law-abiding citizen.
The police shone their flashlights into the courtyard, and several officers moved swiftly, storming into the room and taking everyone inside into custody.
Zhang Guixiang was still in her pajamas, about to go to sleep, when she asked groggily what was going on.
After confirming Lu Xiuwen's identity, the police officers who were holding her released her, saying, "You're no longer needed. The person we're arresting is Lu Xiuwen."
"Oh dear, what did he do wrong?" Zhang Guixiang felt a rush of blood to her head.
At this moment, Lu Xiuwen was already handcuffed and taken to the center of the courtyard.
She rushed over and, while hitting him, demanded to know what he had done wrong.
Lu Xiuwen's face turned pale. He knew that Feng Yu had reported him, but he felt wronged and unable to defend himself.
"We'll talk about it at the police station." The police ignored Zhang Guixiang and Yu Lili's shouts and forcibly took him away.
The incident happened so suddenly that the two could only watch helplessly as the police took the person away.
I spent a sleepless night.
As dawn broke, Yu Lili, carrying her child, and Zhang Guixiang arrived at the police station.
Lu Xiuwen confessed to assaulting someone, but claimed he was instructed to do so, while Huo Xiao firmly denied it.
“Officer, I was just trying to be helpful by taking him to see Boss Lu, and he actually slandered me like this! Everyone heard it; he was the one who wanted to stand up for his sister.”
Huo Xiao naturally confronted Lu Xiuwen.
Lu Xiuwen, realizing he still needed to ask Lu Wanqing for money, said nothing more and swallowed his anger.
Ultimately, because he assaulted someone, causing minor injuries, he was ordered to pay Feng Yu 500 yuan in compensation and served a year in prison.
Feng Yu was also at fault for spreading rumors, but considering that she needs time to recover from her injuries, she will not be held accountable.
Upon hearing this result, Zhang Guixiang fainted on the spot.
