Watching Peng Shitou and his group leave in a hurry, Song Yucheng fell into deep thought. Some things, once started, are hard to stop; once someone tempts you, they will inevitably spiral out of control.
"Boss, is everything alright about what happened last time?" asked Xiao Huang, a security officer standing next to Song Yucheng.
"What could possibly happen? They just found the quota and are now bringing the building materials back to store in the warehouse. In time, who will know who did the previous work? Even if there are suspicions, there's no evidence," Song Yucheng said dismissively.
"So what about this time?" Xiao Huang asked, getting a little too eager after his section chief said everything was fine.
"Let's wait until they bring the stuff back. Tell those guys not to pay too much attention to it, so as not to arouse suspicion. Once it's in our factory, it'll be under our control," Song Yucheng instructed.
While Song Yucheng and the others waited anxiously, Peng Shitou returned first, following the truck from the building materials factory.
"Section Chief Song, this is a truck from the building materials factory, delivering things to us. They'll have to go back and pick up two more loads later. Could you have your men open the door for us? I won't be coming over."
Peng Shitou got out of the car, handed a cigarette to Song Yucheng, and then explained the arrangements for the rest of the trip.
“Okay, it’s nothing, especially since it was arranged by you, Section Chief Peng. What’s included this time?” Song Yucheng replied, smoking a cigarette, but his eyes were fixed on the car.
"These are all in-demand items, like bricks, cement, and lime. Don't let their dirty appearance fool you, everyone's scrambling for them. Only our factory manager has some connections, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to get them even after trying." Peng Shitou casually flattered Xu Damao.
He's finally figured it out: flattering your superiors has its benefits. Last time, a section chief privately told him he was being too overbearing and looked down on him. At the time, he genuinely wondered if he'd gone too far and was planning to adjust his approach in the future.
One time, as he passed by Xu Damao's office, he overheard the section chief reporting inside. The sheer scale of the flattery and the obsequiousness of the words truly astonished him, making him realize that there's always someone better. From then on, he ignored what others said and simply did what he was supposed to do.
After leaving the security department, Peng Shitou didn't rush to Xu Damao's place. Instead, he arranged for others to unload the building materials and move things, while he personally supervised the work.
It was very late when Peng Shitou went to Xu Damao's office to report after arranging all the work, only to be turned away.
Meanwhile, Xu Damao was at home listening to his wife's lecture.
"You, a grown man, why are you picking on a little girl like Tongtong? Besides, she's a girl, how can you be so mean to her?" Wang Minzhi said angrily to Xu Damao.
The sight of the two figures, still trembling, made Xu Damao's eyes widen, and he even swallowed hard.
“I’m telling you, what are you looking at? Besides, even if you don’t care about the monk, you should at least consider the Buddha. She’s my good sister. How can you say that to me? You’re not giving me any face. Have you thought about what you should do?” Wang Minzhi continued.
"I do think my attitude today was a bit too hasty, and my temper was a bit too impulsive, but..."
"No buts. Just tell me what you're going to do." Xu Damao was interrupted by his wife before he could finish speaking.
"I'm prepared to apologize to Miss Li Tong, the beautiful Miss Li. I apologize for my attitude and work methods today and ask for her forgiveness." Xu Damao was forced to surrender.
"Hmm, I think your attitude is quite sincere. So, Tongtong, can we forgive him?" Wang Minzhi looked at Li Tong, who was sitting to the side eating sunflower seeds.
It turns out that after being scolded by Xu Damao today, Li Tong felt more and more aggrieved. She went back and cried for a while before riding her bike to Xu's house and crying to Wang Minzhi about Xu Damao's atrocities.
Wang Minzhi knew what kind of personality her best friend had, and she also knew why her husband was so angry. But she was still a little worried that if her best friend told her family about it, Li Xuewu, with his protective nature, might develop a grudge against Xu Damao.
So, as soon as Xu Damao got home, she frantically gave him meaningful glances and then began to lecture him.
"You can forgive him for that? Wang Minzhi, I've noticed that since you got married, the person you care about most has changed. It's no longer me, Li Tong, but that scoundrel Xu Damao."
"You almost blinded him just now, and that childish punishment is nothing for me to forgive him. There's no way I'll forgive him." Li Tong looked at them with an expression that said, "I see right through you."
"If you want to kill me or torture me, just say so. Stop stringing me along like this, okay?" Xu Damao didn't want to continue playing cat and mouse with this young lady.
"Minzhi, look at how your factory manager treats me, he's completely impatient."
Li Tong walked over and frantically shook Wang Minzhi, and then Xu Damao saw the two of them swaying. No, Xu Damao felt a little dizzy.
"Alright, stop shaking him. Tongtong, you tell me how you want to punish him."
Wang Minzhi hugged Li Tong tightly to stop him from moving around, and then her husband's eyes followed his movements.
"If you ask me, then... then... right, I've got it! Let's punish Xu Damao by making him sleep alone for a month, and not allow him to sleep with you."
"So, to keep an eye on you, I've decided I'll be sleeping with Minzhi for the next month. Go to the side room and have your mother and sister come over," Li Tong instructed directly.
Now, when Xu's father is around, Xu Damao sleeps with him in the side room. When Xu's father isn't here, Xu's mother and his sister Xu Fengling sleep in the side room, so he can have sex with his wife at night.
Xu Damao increasingly felt that this room needed a proper renovation and refurbishment. He hadn't needed it before when he lived alone, but now, for a better and happier life, the renovation was necessary.
Xu Damao was thinking about how he and his wife could party every night, but Li Tong was creating obstacles. This was intolerable.
"That won't do. What's the point of having a young, unmarried woman like you here every day? If word gets out, will you ever get married?" Xu Damao began to appeal to his emotions.
"I'm not getting married," Li Tong said angrily.
"That will also affect me and Minzhi!" Xu Damao almost couldn't catch his breath.
“It’s going to affect you. Xu Damao, you’ve completely forgotten who gave you Minzhi that opportunity in the first place. Now you’ve learned to repay kindness with enmity,” Li Tong said indignantly.
"Tongtong, why don't you sleep here for the night? Our house is so small, it's not good for Damao to always be sleeping in the side room," Wang Minzhi said on Xu Damao's behalf.
She wasn't really helping Xu Damao; she was helping herself too. There's a saying that thirty is like a wolf, forty like a tiger, and she felt like she'd prematurely entered that age. Luckily, Xu Damao was very capable in this area and handled her with ease.
