272: I can’t bear to say a harsh word to her
.
Yu Xiaoye sighed lightly and said in a tone of admitting his guilt:
"Captain, I'll tell you everything! I'll tell you everything!"
Zhou Ziheng was very satisfied with her attitude:
"Okay, tell me where you went last night."
Yu Xiaoye stammered twice, then suddenly begged:
"Director, I can tell you the truth, but you have to agree to one condition first."
Zhou Ziheng asked with great interest:
"Tell me about it."
"Could you please not hand me over to the security department?"
When Zhou Ziheng heard this, he almost laughed out loud.
He suppressed his laughter, maintained a serious appearance, and said in his heart:
Silly girl, don’t say you didn’t do anything serious. Even if you really killed someone or set fire to something, I would try my best to hide you!
I thought so in my heart and said:
"Okay, just tell the truth. I'll keep it a secret and won't let the security department arrest you."
After that, he warned:
"But the premise is that it must be true."
Yu Xiaoye shook his head like a rattle:
"I dare not lie! I dare not lie!"
After a pause, Yu Xiaoye took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to confess:
"Actually, I went to the black market last night!"
After saying that, Yu Xiaoye secretly looked at Zhou Ziheng's expression, waiting for Zhou Ziheng to jump up and drown her with spit.
But no.
Zhou Ziheng looked calm, as if all this was within his expectations. This made Yu Xiaoye even more uneasy. Could it be that the director really had clairvoyance and saw her going to the black market?
Otherwise, why is there no reaction at all?
After waiting anxiously for a while, Zhou Ziheng finally asked:
"What are you going to the black market for?"
Yu Xiaoye had an expression that said, "Do I even need to ask this?" and muttered softly:
"Anyway, we're not going on a picnic to enjoy the scenery."
Zhou Ziheng also felt that his question was a bit silly. What could he do in the black market? Would he come here specifically to buy things? Looking at Yu Xiaoye's conditions, he didn't look like someone who could go to the black market to buy things.
Going to the black market, of course, is to make money.
Zhou Ziheng frowned slightly, feeling a pang of heartache:
"Going to the black market is illegal and dangerous, don't you know?"
"I know, I know, but I'm very careful."
Seeing her ignorant look, completely unaware of fear, Zhou Ziheng wanted to scold her.
But I can't bear to do that.
He couldn't bear to say a harsh word to her.
He didn't know what to say. He just felt a breath stuck in his chest, making him uncomfortable.
He went to the black market in person last night. He was a little scared in the dark woods. How could such a little girl dare to go to the black market?
Don’t know your place!
Yu Xiaoye saw that Zhou Ziheng looked unhappy and didn't speak for a long time. He didn't know what he was thinking, so he begged pitifully:
"Captain, you promised me that you couldn't hand me over to the security department. My family can't live without me. My parents have bad tempers, and I have a stupid second brother who's stupid as hell. They all need me!"
Zhou Ziheng moved his lips:
"Is your second brother as stupid as you?"
"——"
"Are you even dumber than your second brother?"
Yu Xiaoye actually thought seriously about who was more stupid, himself or his second brother.
After thinking about it, I shook my head and thought that my second brother was even more stupid!
Zhou Ziheng could no longer bear it and said:
"You're not stupid. You're a little girl going to the black market. It's so dark, how can you tell the direction? A bunch of grown men are doing business there, why are you joining in the fun?!"
Yu Xiaoye finally received criticism from the director, and he felt relieved.
But, hey, how does the manager know the specific situation of the black market?
She blinked her big watery eyes and asked:
()..
.
"Captain, have you ever been to that place before?"
"——" Zhou Ziheng realized that he had let the cat out of the bag and explained with a straight face, "I heard it from someone."
"oh--"
Yu Xiaoye had no doubts and believed the director's words without a doubt.
Yu Xiaoye stopped talking and waited to be criticized again.
Just criticize her twice, as long as she is not reported to the security department, criticizing her three times is also fine.
She is stubborn and thick-skinned.
Take the blame!
However, Zhou Ziheng did not criticize any further. He was just too worried, even a little scared, so he could not suppress his anger and said a few harsh words. After suppressing his anger, he regained his composure.
Looking at the little girl's cute and sweet face, he asked:
"Are you short of money?"
Yu Xiaoye nodded - although it was not a big need, he had to nod, otherwise it would be unacceptable.
"How much is missing?"
"Well - not much, just enough to earn living expenses to supplement the family income." This was the truth. She did earn living expenses to buy things for her family.
Zhou Ziheng had an understanding expression, as if saying "I understand."
Seeing that Zhou Ziheng seemed to have finished asking questions, Yu Xiaoye said worriedly:
"Captain, you promised me you wouldn't hand me over to the security department. You must keep your word."
"Then you have to promise me that you won't go there again."
Yu Xiaoye nodded without hesitation:
"I won't go there anymore!"
It was impossible not to go. There were four people in their family, three of them were unemployed, and the only one who got a salary was a temporary worker with a salary of only 28 yuan. So for the time being, she had to rely on going to the black market to exchange some money to maintain the basic expenses of the whole family.
However, from now on, I must do everything I can to avoid Zhou Ziheng's sight and go there stealthily!
Zhou Ziheng seemed to see through Yu Xiaoye's scheming and her duplicity, and continued
Staring at her without saying a word.
Yu Xiaoye raised two fingers and promised:
"Really, Boss, if you see me going to the black market again, you'll arrest me!"
Hearing this, Zhou Ziheng suddenly thought: I really want to arrest you - lock you up in my room and let you know how treacherous people are!
Then he was startled by his own words and quickly drove away this despicable and terrible thought:
"Okay, you said it yourself. If I catch you once, I'll send you to the security department!"
Yu Xiaoye nodded, feeling worried for himself:
I shouldn’t be so unlucky in the future. I can’t be caught by you every time I come to the county town, right?
Fortunately, I finally got through this level.
Yu Xiaoye turned his head and saw the blank curtain in front of him, and suddenly remembered what he was here for.
Hey, I'm here to study, why am I chatting with old cadres?
We can’t miss the important things!
She took the opportunity to find an excuse to get herself out of this situation:
"Director, you're quite busy, so I won't interrupt your work. The first half of my movie is over, so I'll go down and ask that guy to change the film for me."
Zhou Ziheng said:
"No need to look for the little brother, the big brother will help you change."
"???"
Big brother?
who?
Zhou Ziheng put down his crossed legs, stood up, walked to the movie projector, carefully took out the film, and put another bundle of film on it.
The movements were not very skillful, but there were no mistakes either.
He stood next to the projector, and his whole body was glowing under the light from the projector.
Strange, when the guy came to show the movie just now, there was no such brilliant feeling.
Zhou Ziheng stood there with a tall and straight figure, emitting a dazzling brilliance.
Even the strands of hair shimmered in the light.
The high eyebrows, deep eyes, and clear and three-dimensional facial features are also ()..
.
He becomes even more handsome in the light.
Moreover, Director Zhou today is very different from the last time when he wore a military uniform and a military cap and looked so heroic.
Today he was wearing a white Dacron shirt, exuding a mature and elegant temperament.
It’s so magical, Yu Xiaoye actually came to like that intimidating manager?
The serious old cadre actually turned into a big brother! ..
