Seeing that her attitude had softened, Zhou Qiang assumed she had agreed and immediately smiled, bringing her an enamel mug to pour her some water.
“That’s right. Wu Huaiqing is a clueless greenhorn who doesn’t know anything. He doesn’t know how to care for people. You’d be better off dating me than him. Don’t worry, if I become the purchasing manager, as the manager’s wife, you can go to any position you want. You won’t have to put up with Wang Chuntao, a mere workshop foreman.”
Yu Yao didn't drink from the enamel mug he offered, afraid that if she listened any longer she would be too disgusted to continue her act, so she interrupted Zhou Qiang.
"Stop talking nonsense and get down to business. How do you want me to help you deal with Wu Huaiqing? I won't agree to anything that's too dangerous."
Zhou Qiang wasn't angry at her cold attitude, but fearing she might change her mind, he quickly coaxed her, "Don't worry, I'll tell you right away, I'll tell you right away."
“Wu Huaiqing is dating you, but he doesn’t know you’re already married. Everyone else has seen you two together. Just go to the factory director and report him for indecent behavior. Leave the rest to me, and I guarantee Wu Huaiqing will be in deep trouble.”
Previously, when Lu Ze and his team were cracking down on the spy gang behind Mo Ruqing, one of them was the purchasing manager of Haixing Food Factory. That person was about to retire, but because of this incident, he was imprisoned, and the manager's position, which was supposed to be a smooth transition, immediately became vacant.
Both Wu Huaiqing and Zhou Qiang are competitors for the manager position, but given his older brother's experience and abilities, he has a better chance of winning than Zhou Qiang.
That's why Zhou Qiang, in desperation, came up with such a foolish move to deal with Wu Huaiqing.
Although for some unknown reason, Zhou Qiang mistakenly thought she was Wu Huaiqing's boyfriend, but if this was used well, it could not only solve Zhou Qiang's problem, but also help her brother successfully take the position of manager.
In just a few breaths, Yu Yao had figured out the whole story.
"Comrade Yu, what's your decision?" Zhou Qiang was confident that Yu Yao would agree.
Yu Yao glanced at the smug Zhou Qiang and said indifferently, "I don't think it's good. I refuse."
Zhou Qiang thought his offer was very tempting, and assuming Yu Yao hadn't heard him clearly, he repeated it again.
"Yu Yao, do you think I'm lying to you? No, I truly love you. As soon as I become the manager, I'll marry you immediately. You'll be the purchasing manager's wife at the state-owned factory, and you won't have to compromise and serve an old man anymore."
Yu Yao looked at Zhou Qiang with disgust, as if he were something filthy: "Why do you think I would like you? Do you think I like you because you're bald, short, and have a foul mouth? Director Zhou, if you have eye problems, go get them treated. It's not good to come out and disgust people."
Zhou Qiang never expected Yu Yao to evaluate him in this way.
He hated it when people said he was short. Even though he liked Yu Yao a little, he wouldn't allow her to slander him like that.
"Yu Yao, aren't you afraid I'll report you for having an affair with Wu Huaiqing?" Zhou Qiang's face was ugly, and he threatened with a fierce look. "I advise you to behave yourself and not make me angry."
"Director Zhou, threatening me? If you're so capable, go ahead and report me. All you can do is resort to these low-class tactics. You're despicable."
Having received the answer, Yu Yao ignored Zhou Qiang, took the key, opened the door, and left.
Zhou Qiang was ashen-faced with impotent rage. He slammed the enamel mug in his hand onto the ground with a piercing sound.
His gaze at Yu Yao's retreating figure was filled with malice.
Yu Yao, you'll regret it if you don't listen to reason.
While Zhou Qiang's methods may not be considered particularly sophisticated, in this era, such lifestyle issues can easily become a point of attack for others.
Yu Yao wasn't sure how much Wu Huaiqing knew about Zhou Qiang's methods, so after returning to the compound, she made a special trip to the post office to call the family compound to remind Wu Huaiqing.
The next morning, Yu Yao rode her bicycle to work. When she arrived at the pre-processing workshop, Aunt Liu and the others pulled her up to the conference room for a meeting.
Normally, meetings start on Mondays and Saturdays, but this Wednesday morning meeting must be important. Thinking of what Wu Huaiqing had said before, Yu Yao guessed that the factory might have some big announcement to make.
When they arrived at the meeting room, Wang Chuntao was the first to arrive. Almost everyone from the other production teams had arrived. They weren't early, but they weren't late either.
But in Wang Chuntao's eyes, not arriving early meant a lack of enthusiasm and a problem with attitude.
She glared at Yu Yao and Aunt Liu, "Hurry up and find a seat. Are you turtles in disguise, coming so late?"
Aunt Liu and Aunt Hong pulled Yu Yao to find a seat. Looking at Wang Chuntao, who was busy serving tea and water to Director Li, they curled their lips in disdain and muttered complaints under their breath.
"That Wang Jimao is such a busybody. Almost everyone's here, but she picks on us. She's definitely targeting us." The speaker was Sister Liu from the workshop, who was in her forties and had been working at the factory for three years.
"If it weren't for the security of our jobs, who would want to put up with her nonsense? It's just that our new factory only has one canning workshop. I heard that the old factory had several, and the employees had the opportunity to re-select their production teams."
"Speaking of which, I'm a little envious. I wish we could choose our groups again. I definitely wouldn't choose Wang Jimao. Yu Yao and Sister Liu are both amazing. If you were the class monitors, we would definitely choose you."
Upon hearing this, Aunt Liu quickly waved her hand, her face full of worry, and said, "I can't do it. I hate managing people the most. I only became the group leader because there was really no one else. It's too uncomfortable for me. I'm not cut out for this. Yu Yao is good, though. She's young and capable. If you become the class leader, I'll definitely join you."
"Yes, we'll follow you too."
They all joked about re-selecting groups, but unexpectedly, Director Li's next words gave them hope.
The factory decided to import two canning production lines from abroad. One of the production lines is planned to be set up in the new factory. The new production line will be used to produce newly developed canned goods, and an employee needs to be promoted to foreman.
