"And my dear aunt is actually a shameless mistress. No wonder you gave my mother a job and arranged for them to live in the dormitory upstairs. It was all for the sake of your family's reunion. I am the only superfluous person."
"But how can you do this to my uncle and my mother? You're terrifying, like a devil instead of my father. I have to sever ties with you. You're willing to make me give up my job for Zhang Yanhong and secretly sign me up for the rural service program. Who knows how you'll torment me for them in the future?"
"Gu An'an, shut up!"
Zhang Changsheng's eyes were fierce. Not to mention Gu An'an, even the old ladies next to him felt a chill run down their spines when they met his gaze. At this moment, even if they thought what Gu An'an said was a bit unbelievable, they unconsciously chose to believe him.
Without a doubt, if they weren't there, An'an would have been beaten to death by the other party.
"Zhang Changsheng, what are you yelling about! You did such a shameless thing and you still dare to take it out on An'an? Do you really think our machinery factory is helpless?"
"That's right, I was recruited by the old factory director, so I'm determined to handle An'an's matter today."
"In the end, he's just a live-in son-in-law, yet he dares to cause so much trouble. Truly, men have the most poisonous hearts."
"No, this matter must be reported, otherwise everyone will think we are easy to bully."
Originally, this machinery factory belonged to the original owner's maternal grandfather's family. When the old man saw that the situation was not right, he immediately donated the factory to the country and became the factory manager himself, but he was the kind who received a salary. The old factory manager that the person mentioned was the original owner's maternal grandfather.
Zhang Changsheng was of average ability, relying entirely on his smooth talk and superb acting skills to deceive the original owner's mother. He became the workshop director by leveraging the resources and connections of the Gu family, and many people were dissatisfied and wanted to bring him down.
As things spiraled out of his control, Zhang Changsheng, seeing that some people were enjoying the spectacle, had no choice but to insist that Gu An'an was lying.
“Sister-in-law and aunt, she’s just talking nonsense. Don’t you know what kind of person I am? Over the years, I’ve been both her father and mother, raising her with love and care. Instead of being grateful, she’s trying to smear me. No matter how much of a scoundrel I am, I would never get involved with my own sister-in-law. Otherwise, would I still be human?”
Yes! As long as he insists he didn't do it, no one can do anything to him. He wasn't pinned down on the bed on the spot. He just needs to be more careful in the future.
“Some people may look like humans, but to call them beasts would be an insult to the word ‘beast,’” Gu An’an sneered.
Zhang Changsheng was furious. "An'an, I'm your father. If something happens to me, how can you expect to be okay? I know I've neglected you all these years, but your uncle died saving me. I can't just abandon them. I never expected you to misunderstand."
Zhang Changsheng's acting skills are quite good; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to fool the original owner's biological mother so easily, which is why some onlookers hesitated.
“These words were spoken by Zhang Yanqing and Zhang Yanhong themselves. They also said that my dear aunt had already helped me sign up for the rural service program behind my back. If she then finds someone to ruin my reputation, I will have to stay in the countryside for the rest of my life. In that case, everything belonging to the Zhang family or the Gu family will be yours. Am I right?”
Zhang Changsheng's fierce gaze fell on the two sisters, making them tremble slightly. "Dad, no, Second Uncle, we didn't say anything."
They often discussed these things behind each other's backs, and frequently plotted how to deal with Gu An'an, so they didn't actually know whether Gu An'an, that bitch, had overheard them at some point.
The more confused one's mind is, the easier it is to say the wrong thing. Even though Zhang Yanhong quickly corrected herself, there are plenty of people with sharp ears who know that what Gu An'an said was true.
"Hey! You dare to call me 'Dad' in front of so many of us, and you still say there's no affair? You really have your face turned to the other side, shameless on one hand and thick-skinned on the other."
"I've always felt that the Zhang family members are no good. Like father, like son. The elders are having affairs, and the younger ones even dare to bully the children of the first wife. What kind of trash are they!"
"No! This matter must be reported to the factory office and the police. We can't let these scoundrels pollute the atmosphere of our machinery factory."
"Zhang Changsheng is such a good actor. I used to think he was a good person and even wanted to introduce my niece to him. Luckily, my niece found a boyfriend first, otherwise it would have ruined that child's life."
Everyone was talking at once, and the scene was quite chaotic.
Upon hearing that these people were not only going to cause trouble at the factory office, but also planned to take the matter to the police, Zhang Changsheng truly panicked.
"Don't listen to this brat's nonsense. She's just very dissatisfied with the rural assignment and is deliberately framing someone. People with such unfilial and unjust thoughts are the parasites that destroy harmony."
Zhang Changsheng wanted to shift the blame onto Gu An'an, claiming she was unwilling to go to the countryside, that she had ideological problems, and that he was framing her.
"What happened?"
Just then, two men in military uniforms squeezed into the crowd, frowning as they looked at the noisy scene.
"Are you the third son of the Chen family who's in the army?"
When he was recognized, the young man smiled, revealing two small tiger teeth. "Grandma Li has such a good memory."
Who is this person?
"This is our Deputy Regiment Commander Xiao."
Chen Yong instinctively wanted to boast about the great achievements of his deputy regiment commander Xiao, but then realized the occasion was inappropriate and kept quiet.
Even so, the neighbors could still guess what was going on. Chen Yong being a company commander was enough for his family to brag about. This young man in front of them didn't look much older than Chen Yong, yet he had become a deputy regimental commander. His future was limitless!
The eyes of those older women were like searchlights constantly scanning them, and they were calculating their own gains. If their daughters or nieces could marry the other man, wouldn't they be set for life?
