Love Stickers
This was a satisfactory answer for everyone. Wang Datong was not called back, but Qian Liju, who had been eavesdropping in the kitchen, still managed to use all her skills to prepare six dishes with the four of them.
He was always cheerful as he served food to his children during the meal, and even showed a somewhat kind expression towards Sun Miao.
A happy ending seems to have arrived ahead of schedule.
It was rare to see Wang Shuitao so relaxed and at ease after returning from Wangjiazhuang, and the rumors were suppressed.
Aside from feeling a little awkward in front of Meng Songying, Meng Songying, as always, quickly resolved the awkwardness.
Wang Shuitao was still considering whether or not to go to the provincial capital.
Whether to go or not, there are advantages and disadvantages to both.
If you go to the provincial capital, at least the living facilities there are much more convenient than in the county town, such as the toilet.
The development prospects are also much greater in the provincial capital.
But once I got there, I would have to start all over again. A lateral transfer was impossible, and becoming a deputy director directly was simply a pipe dream. At worst, I would be given a higher rank and a few dollars more in salary.
By staying at the Shenxian Pearl Sugar Factory, having proven herself twice, it's safe to say that her opinions would be taken seriously and even supported from the moment she made her suggestions.
Even if she has countless novel ideas, she needs to be able to put them into practice in order to realize her value. However, the competition in the provincial capital is definitely fierce, and it is impossible for her to do whatever she wants.
Fortunately, Meng Songying didn't rush her; she would only occasionally show the look in her eyes that resembled a puppy waiting for a bone.
On the night after night school ended, Zhang Pingkang once again harassed Wang Shuitao. The people around them were used to it and dispersed.
Wang Shuitao glanced at Zhang Pingkang and said apologetically to the other students, "You guys go first, I'll handle this. This can't go on like this."
Everyone was still a little worried, and Zhang Qin asked, "Why don't we stay? At least there are more of us, which will give us some courage."
Wang Shuitao shook her head: "It's harder to explain when there are too many people. He has a job and wouldn't dare to do anything. Besides, Engineer Meng will be with me."
The group offered a few more words of advice, but seeing that she insisted, they left.
Wang Shuitao then turned her head and said, "Alright, tell me, what exactly do you want?"
Aside from the first time he blocked her way, it was clear that Zhang Pingkang genuinely wanted to rely on her to solve Zhu Qiuguo's problem. The next few times, he just wailed without saying a word, chased everyone away, and then lowered his head, secretly glancing at the classmates around him. It was obvious that he had something to say but couldn't let others hear him.
This time too, his eyes darted around Meng Songying.
Meng Songying moved a little closer to Taozi; it was impossible for him to feel at ease letting Taozi face Zhang Pingkang alone.
Zhang Pingkang was extremely anxious. Zhu Qiuguo had instructed him to get rid of everyone else discreetly, leaving only Wang Shuitao behind, so that what they were going to say could not be discovered by others.
Who knows if someone inside might snitch on us?
But this opportunity was truly rare; normally, those seven students would never leave early.
Wang Shuitao looked at Zhang Pingkang, who was looking around, lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment. Then, she stopped looking at him, looked around again, and said to the air, "It's impossible for me to see you alone. If you have something to say, say it now."
After a rustling sound, Zhu Qiuguo slowly appeared, and a hint of surprise flashed in Wang Shuitao's eyes.
Distrust of men was ingrained in Zhu Qiuguo's bones. Although Meng Songying and Wang Shuitao were both people who had been manipulated, she was still worried that Meng Songying would turn against her. However, firstly, she was worried that the Zhang family would make a comeback and she would be in danger, and secondly, she also felt a bit of gratitude towards Wang Shuitao.
In the end, I did manage to come out of it.
He then revealed the whole story of Wu Dong's conspiracy with Zhang Ping'an: "Wu Dong from your sugar factory instructed Zhang Ping'an to report Sun Ming to the Revolutionary Committee for abusing his power for personal gain, forcing the younger brother of a sugar factory worker to marry a wife he didn't like at all, and sending the worker to clean toilets because he was unwilling."
The mastermind behind the previous rumors has not yet been caught, and Wang Shuitao has a strange feeling that Wu Dong must also be involved.
Is it because they can't win the power struggle, so they're resorting to even dirtier methods?
Wang Shuitao exchanged a glance with Meng Songying, who was also frowning, and nodded solemnly to Zhu Qiuguo: "Okay, I understand. Thank you for telling me this news. Is there anything else?"
Zhu Qiuguo: "Yeah, they plan to use me as evidence, saying I'm a whore who sleeps around with other men, and they're going to report my lover for being involved in the black market."
Wang Shuitao: "No one gets up early without a profit. The black market is lucrative, so this must be the benefit Wu Dong is preparing for the Revolutionary Committee."
She turned to look at Zhang Pingkang, who was huddled in the back: "However, it seems you have already dealt with this false accusation."
Zhu Qiuguo raised the corners of her mouth: "Of course, don't worry, I will definitely come to testify for you."
She sweetly linked arms with Zhang Pingkang, tilted her head back and smiled at him: "My relationship with my husband is just so wonderful."
Zhang Pingkang hesitated for only a moment before being pinched hard on the soft flesh of his waist. He quickly nodded in agreement. If his older brother climbed up while he was still cleaning toilets, he might as well go eat shit.
As for Zhang Ping'an's statement that he would not forget his younger brother, Zhang Pingkang thought it was too much of a word.
The surroundings were quiet and dark. The cicadas of summer had long since faded away, and even the insects were unwilling to chirp in the chilly late autumn. As for stray cats and dogs, they were nowhere to be seen.
A beam of pale light shone from the flashlight, illuminating only two meters ahead.
Wang Shuitao pondered all the way, and only asked as she entered the door: "Do you think it's more accurate to speculate that Wu Dong wanted to deal with the factory director and cut off your and my right-hand men in advance, or that someone wanted to target you and me and destroy the factory director as their backer?"
Meng Songying turned off the flashlight, and the surroundings immediately went dark. His vision was still not adjusted, so he couldn't see Taozi's expression clearly. He could only gently touch her cheek with his hand: "The next one."
Lately, Taozi has been avoiding him. They can only be as close as before when he picks her up and drops her off at night school.
Wang Shuitao buried her face in his dry, warm hands and vented, "So annoying, so annoying, so annoying! Everything is jumping out, ugh!"
Before she came here, she often saw posts online complaining about being ostracized by classmates, disliked by roommates, or schemed against by colleagues. But she had never encountered those kinds of people when she was in school and living on campus, so she thought maybe it was because they were a very small minority that their stories were posted online.
After arriving here, she found that all her superiors and colleagues were easy to talk to, which made her even more convinced of this. Little did she know that it was because she had nothing worth coveting before, but now that she had just made some achievements, all sorts of flies and bedbugs were swarming around her.
She banged her head heavily against the palm of his hand, and quickly composed herself, realizing she was too angry.
His slender fingers slid down from her forehead to her chin, lingering there.
Wang Shuitao pinched the finger and said with a grin, "Oh dear, Engineer Meng has been really into sticking things in lately~"
"But no, we have to keep our distance!"
She raised her hands and made a big X in front of her chest; after all, the rumors did have an impact.
The owner of the finger remained silent, while Wang Shuitao continued counting on her fingers: "I heard that Haicheng reopened the college entrance examination in the first half of this year. Things will only get better and better in the future. Maybe in a few years we can hold hands on the street again."
Meng Songying simply opened the door for her and said, "Go to sleep early."
He didn't regret coming to Shenxian County; it was the opportunity that brought them together. But if he had been stronger, none of this would have happened.
Who can predict the future? Just like this college entrance examination, it quickly became a symbol of the wrong thing, and even college students who passed the exam had to stage a sit-in in front of the government building to get the opportunity to go to school.
It's not necessary to wait a few years. Right now, it's an open secret that the director of the provincial revolutionary committee has mistresses, and even more than one. But no one dares to say anything. On the contrary, the mistresses and their families also rise to prominence.
He didn't want to do evil; he just wanted to gain more power.
To protect a lover whose views clash with everyone else's.
I hope the day when she is shattered and rebuilt by reality never comes.
Even earlier than the morning sun came the members of the Revolutionary Committee. Wu Dong led them in, and the security department couldn't stop them.
The doors of Sun Ming, Li Yuanhong's family, Meng Songying, and Wang Shuitao were knocked on in turn.
