Chapter 156 Deliberately Targeting
She was wearing a blue shirt, had a high ponytail, had fair skin, and a bright and cheerful smile. She was beautiful in an aggressive way, and also the most stunning. Hu Taihong felt quite disappointed when he saw that everyone in the art troupe was staring at Team Leader Chen in a daze.
"I thought everyone in the art troupe was pretty."
"Why, you came here on the clouds?"
Hu Taihong nodded weakly.
The scene he imagined was pretty much the same.
The two colleagues were speechless.
Does he have to be that stupid?
Chen Qing let go of Director Li's hand, and then looked at the comrades from the art troupe and said, "Comrades, you have worked hard on the journey. I will take you to the guesthouse to settle down first, and then I will deal with the equipment in the truck later."
Captain Li asked everyone to follow.
Li Zhaoxia and Chen Qing walked side by side towards the guesthouse: "Team Leader Chen is still very young, right?"
"Almost twenty."
“You are really young and promising.”
"It's because the organization is willing to give young people opportunities." Chen Qing said with a smile, without any flaws.
Li Zhaoxia smiled and said, "I'm sorry to bother you with my performance at your factory this time."
"How could that be? The factory workers heard that the art troupe was coming and were looking forward to it. Many comrades tried to work the night shift just to get a better view of the show."
Chen Qing replied with a smile.
The group walked out of the machinery factory, walked forward for a while, and turned a corner, and a three-story red brick building appeared in front of them.
There are several osmanthus trees planted in front of the building. It is in bloom and the pale yellow flowers emit a sweet fragrance.
There was a sign with red letters on a white background hanging at the door: Machinery Factory Guesthouse.
"We're here. This is it." Chen Qing was the first to push open the green-painted wooden door.
The lobby of the guesthouse is not big, but it is very clean.
The cement floor was mopped to a shine, and on the walls hung portraits of great men and several award certificates for model workers.
Behind a wooden counter sat a middle-aged woman wearing reading glasses.
"Auntie Wang, the comrades from the art troupe have arrived." Chen Qing greeted them.
Aunt Wang looked up from the registration book and squinted her eyes to look at everyone: "Welcome, welcome. The rooms are ready. There are six rooms on the second and third floors, two people per room."
Chen Qing took out a bunch of keys from the counter and said, "Comrades, our factory conditions are limited, so they are naturally not as convenient as home, but the bedding is all new, and each room has a thermos and a washbasin. If you need anything, just tell me."
"This is already very good." Director Li said with a smile, "When our art troupe went to the countryside to perform, we even stayed in the warehouse of the brigade headquarters!"
The group members laughed good-naturedly, only Su Manman frowned.
Chen Qing noticed her keenly.
Su Manman also raised her eyes and looked at Chen Qing. Her voice was gentle but sharp, and could not be ignored: "Which direction does my room face? I have trouble sleeping and need some quiet time."
"Then I'll arrange a room for you on the second floor, facing south, away from the noise of the factory." Chen Qing replied, "No one lives next door, so it should be very quiet."
Su Manman frowned. Seeing that she seemed easy to bully, she was reluctantly satisfied with the answer and nodded slightly.
Only Captain Li raised his eyebrows.
Team leader Chen is very careful in his preparations and seems to be quite capable.
After Chen Qing assigned rooms to everyone, other staff members of the factory committee helped everyone carry their luggage upstairs.
Su Manman and the other group members entered the room arranged by Chen Qing. It was about twelve square meters, with two single beds placed against the wall and a wooden bedside table in the middle.
There were light blue curtains hanging on the windows, fluttering gently in the wind.
The sheets were made of coarse cloth, washed bleached but very clean.
There are two thermoses and an enamel washbasin in the corner.
The group member who shared the same dormitory with Su Manman said in surprise: "It's well decorated. I can finally have a good sleep!"
Su Manman curled her lips.
She placed her handbag on the bed by the window and began to check the bed.
He secretly took out the meat bun from his pocket, broke it open, and spread the oil from the bun on the quilt.
After the oil seeped into the quilt, she shouted to Chen Qing outside the room: "There's a stain on this pillowcase!"
Chen Qing, who was asking everyone in the corridor if they needed anything, came to Su Manman's room without any hurry.
She walked forward to check the white quilt, discovered the spreading oil stains, and glanced at Su Manman lightly.
"This oil stain seems to have only appeared not long ago, no more than half an hour ago, but the quilt was washed yesterday and placed on the bed. I think there was a thief. I will report it to the police right away."
"Don't!"
Su Manman hurriedly called her to stop, and seeing Chen Qing stopped walking, she said proudly: "Just change the sheets for me."
Chen Qing stood in front of her and said, "Comrade Su, I am the director of the factory committee and I am responsible for welcoming you, not your parents. While watching you perform tricks, I have to play dumb and cooperate with you."
"What do you mean? I just asked you to change the sheets for me! You were supposed to entertain us."
Since the first time Su Manman saw Chen Qing, her nails have been deeply dug into the palms of her hands, and a crazy jealousy has emerged from the bottom of her heart.
How could she, a female worker in a machinery factory, be more beautiful than the people in her art troupe!
Dressed up gorgeously.
You only know how to seduce men, right?!
Chen Qing looked at her calmly.
Captain Li walked in and asked, "What happened?"
Chen Qing smiled slightly: "Captain Li, you seem to be very dissatisfied with my hospitality. You specially found performance props to make a puddle of oil stains on the quilt that our staff worked so hard to scrub."
There are no washing machines in today's guest houses, so all sheets and quilt covers need to be washed manually, especially those with dirt, which can only be cleaned by scrubbing vigorously.
Head of the group Li explained: "This may be a misunderstanding. Our members of the Su group are a little spoiled, but we will not torture the working people."
"Really?" Chen Dan held Su Manman's wrists with one hand, took out a bun from her pocket, and handed it to Captain Li: "The captain also needs to pay more attention to the members."
Su Manman's face turned blue and red.
Captain Li's face darkened.
Chen Qing let go of Su Manman's hand and got straight to the point: "One of your team members likes a researcher in our institute, but we have a good relationship. I personally think that if she likes the researcher, she can pursue him boldly instead of targeting me. After all, I am not the person she likes, and she does not need to attract my attention."
"I don't mind what happened this time. If there is a next time, I hope Captain Li can understand that even clay people can get angry."
"By the way, I hope Comrade Su can clean up the oil stains, otherwise I will ask you to buy the quilt."
Amid Su Manman's shocked gaze, Chen Qing politely nodded towards Captain Li and told the remaining three people who were just wasting time to go downstairs and wait.
It’s okay to lose your temper.
But she will complete her work tasks well.
In the guesthouse, Captain Li took a deep breath and asked, "Su Manman, what are you doing?"
Su Manman listened to Chen Qing's long chatter, accurately distilled the key points, and cried with her hands covering her face: "She said that she has a good relationship with Researcher He."
