460: A case caused by a box of beef jerky
As he spoke, Lin Darong rushed over and reached behind Zhou Ziheng with both hands, trying to grab Yu Xiaoye.
Zhou Ziheng stood between the two of them.
He couldn't attack Lin Darong directly.
If it were someone else, he would have kicked them out long ago.
But Lin Darong was a girl after all, and the daughter of Deputy Director Lin, so he couldn't kick her.
He could only push Lin Darong forward with one hand and protect Yu Xiaoye with the other:
"Lin Darong, stop it! Tell me what's going on!"
Lin Darong refused to give in:
"Director Zhou, why don't you protect her?"
Zhou Ziheng shouted:
“Stop it!”
The sound echoed in the stairwell, causing Yu Xiaoye behind him to have tinnitus.
Lin Darong was also frightened by the harsh shout. She shrank back in fear and dared not move forward.
The residents upstairs all ran out of their homes, holding spatulas and chopsticks to watch the fun, wondering who was quarreling.
When I saw this, oh my god, Director Zhou was sandwiched between two girls with a murderous look on his face!
Everyone knows that Director Zhou is serious, but no one has ever seen him really angry with anyone.
What happened today?
What happened to the eldest daughter of the Lin family?
And who is this little girl hiding behind Director Zhou?
Those women who came out to watch couples quarreling or mother-in-law and daughter-in-law fighting had no idea what was going on.
At this time, Deputy Director Lin also came back.
He heard the noise upstairs when he was downstairs, and heard Director Zhou's angry shouts. He thought something serious had happened, so he quickened his pace and ran upstairs.
As soon as I came up, I saw a group of people gathered at the stairs.
His daughter, Lin Darong, stood in front of Zhou Ziheng in a daze, with the cotton hat on her head tilted.
Deputy Director Lin was also stunned.
I couldn't guess what happened for a moment.
Everyone looked at each other.
Zhou Ziheng spoke:
"Everyone else go back. You two, Lin Darong and Yu Xiaoye, follow me!"
After saying that, Zhou Ziheng turned around and glanced at Yu Xiaoye.
Yu Xiaoye was so angry:
What an unexpected disaster for me!
One begged me for help, one chased me like a ghost, and the other stopped me from running away.
Did these three collude in advance and deliberately trick me?
I'm so fucking mad, okay?!
Deputy Director Lin came over. Although he didn't know what had happened, he knew it was not a good thing when he saw his daughter's out-of-control behavior.
He quickly dispersed the crowd that had come out to watch the excitement:
"Everyone, go back, if you don't go back now, the pot will burn!"
"Ouch, it's so blurry!"
Then they all went back into their homes and dispersed, leaving only a few children watching the fun.
After everyone else had left, Old Lady Lin came over with a lunch box, which was the same lunch box that Yu Xiaoye had just delivered.
The Lin family lived in the innermost part, the farthest away. In addition, when old lady Lin went out, she saw a lunch box on the ground. She picked up the lunch box and opened it. She saw a box of beef jerky inside. She recognized that it was the beef jerky from her home. She was a little confused for a moment because they had eaten up all the beef jerky at home, so how could there be another box?
I was worried, so I came late and was the last one to arrive.
When he arrived and saw the scene, he looked at his exasperated granddaughter, the gloomy Director Zhou, and then at the strange little girl being protected by Director Zhou. He was a little confused for a moment:
"What's wrong?"
Old Mrs. Lin cast an inquiring look at her son, Deputy Director Lin.
Deputy Director Lin just arrived and doesn’t understand anything either!
However, Deputy Director Lin recognized Yu Xiaoye and recognized that this was the girl who had just been transferred from the Wufen Field and played Xier.
Deputy Director Lin asked angrily:
"What happened?"
No one spoke.
Zhou Ziheng said:
"I just got here too, I don't know what happened."
After that, he ordered the two girls:
"come over!"
Yu Xiaoye sighed to the sky and had no choice but to follow Zhou Ziheng. He deliberately stayed away from Lin Darong, fearing that Lin Darong would attack again.
Zhou Ziheng arrived at the door of his own house, which was the one Yu Xiaoye had guessed.
He took out his key and opened the door.
"Come in."
Yu Xiaoye went in first.
It was already dark outside and the room was very dark.
But Yu Xiaoye still saw the familiar sofa at a glance.
Some bad memories came to my mind, and I felt a little embarrassed.
But that incident seemed to have happened in my previous life. Looking at Director Zhou’s house now, it felt like a scene I had seen in my previous life.
She only glanced at the sofa, not daring to look around, and stood aside obediently.
Zhou Ziheng came in and turned on the light.
The room became brighter.
Later, Old Lady Lin, Deputy Director Lin, and Lin Darong also came in.
Lin Darong was still glaring at Yu Xiaoye, but at this time she seemed to have begun to calm down and was not as impulsive as before. She knew that her behavior could not withstand questioning, so the expression on her face was a little nervous.
After Zhou Ziheng brought everyone in, he took off his coat and hat, sat on the sofa, and looked up at Yu Xiaoye and Lin Darong.
Seeing that one of them was tall and fat, and the other was thin and weak, he was lucky that he had discovered it early. If they really fought, Yu Xiaoye would definitely not be Lin Darong's opponent.
You will only suffer losses then.
Therefore, the grudge between these two people must be resolved today to prevent Yu Xiaoye from being wronged in the future.
Deputy Director Lin came in from behind and asked first:
"What's going on, Darong, tell me!"
Lin Darong opened her mouth, but only whimpered twice and said nothing.
Seeing her hesitant look, Mrs. Lin pushed her:
"Girl, why don't you tell me quickly—By the way, what's with the beef jerky in here? Weren't we finished eating it? Where did this come from?"
When Zhou Ziheng and Deputy Director Lin heard about beef jerky, they immediately remembered what happened under the bulletin board this afternoon.
It was about Lin Darong stealing beef jerky from home and giving it to Bai Zongdan.
Deputy Director Lin's face instantly turned as dark as Bao Gong's.
Now that things have come to this, what else is there that cannot be understood?
Zhou Ziheng looked at the lunch box in Old Lady Lin's hand, then at Yu Xiaoye, and guessed what had happened. He asked Yu Xiaoye in a much calmer tone:
"Yu Xiaoye, tell me what's going on. Feel free to speak boldly."
Yu Xiaoye said:
"Director Lin, Director Zhou, here's what happened: a few days ago, Lin Darong came into our office and slipped a lunch box into Xiaobai's desk.
I didn't know what was going on at the time. I didn't care or ask, and I didn't know what was in the lunch box.
Then this afternoon, Xiaobai came to me and asked me for help, telling me to deliver the lunch box to the door of the forest manager's house.
At first I didn't want to get involved in this matter and I clearly rejected him. Later he came to me again and begged me to help him once more. I had no choice but to come over with my lunch box.
I had just put down my lunch box and hadn't walked away when Lin Darong came after me. When I saw her chasing me, I ran away.
Then I ran into Director Zhou at the stairs.
That's how it is.
I'm just an errand boy, I have nothing to do with this matter!"
