The voice was clear and pleasant. Zhao Youcai turned his head and saw a hot woman looking at him excitedly, her eyes full of excitement and surprise.
Is this handsome, upright man really an old man? He looks to be at most forty or fifty years old.
"Hello Comrade Zhao, my name is Chen Tingting, the 'ting' in 'tingting yuli' (graceful and elegant)."
As she spoke, the woman reached out and grabbed Zhao Youcai's hand.
Zhao Youcai was taken aback. Had he become so famous now? He could be recognized anywhere he went.
And he seemed to see a hint of admiration in the other person's eyes?
Zhao Youcai doesn't believe he's charming enough to attract young women.
That person's reaction was rather strange.
Zhao Youcai dodged the other person's hand and subconsciously kept his distance, saying, "Miss, you may have mistaken me for someone else. Why don't you go ask somewhere else?"
While it's true that men of all ages prefer 18-year-olds, it doesn't mean that every young and beautiful girl will like that.
Now it was Chen Tingting's turn to be dumbfounded, frozen in place.
If someone hadn't specifically told her that the man in front of her was Zhao Youcai, Chen Tingting would definitely have doubted that she had made a mistake.
Her eyes flickered, but her heart was in turmoil.
I originally thought dealing with a clueless old peasant would be a piece of cake, but now I'm a little nervous.
He's really got wiser with age, and not only does he look younger and younger, but he's also full of cunning and shrewdness.
Just as Chen Tingting was feeling awkward and unsure how to continue the argument, she realized that...
A man in a police uniform walked in and said in a deep voice:
"Tingting, what are you still doing here? Go back and tell your factory manager Zhu that the pig loss at the farm has been recorded, and they will send someone down to investigate in the coming days."
After speaking, the man seemed to have just noticed Zhao Youcai, and quickly put on a bright smile, turning his head to greet Zhao Youcai again.
"Comrade Zhao, you're here too. Are you here on business as well?"
Zhao Youcai was in a real bind. He had just said that the other party had mistaken him for someone else when someone else immediately jumped out and confirmed his identity.
"Huh? So you really are Comrade Zhao. Then why did you say I mistook you for someone else?"
Zhao Youcai was now even more certain that something was wrong with this woman.
If it were any normal stranger, after experiencing the same thing, wouldn't their first reaction be embarrassment or awkwardness?
The meaning of my reaction just now couldn't be clearer: I didn't want to talk to her.
But the girl in front of him didn't feel embarrassed at all. Instead, she put her hands on her hips and pouted to show her dissatisfaction, like a little imp with her fur standing on end.
This is just plain insane!
Considering the affected manner with which she made eight hundred small gestures in a minute after greeting me, this woman is definitely up to no good and has ulterior motives.
Based on what the policeman said, we extracted some useful information. The woman in front of us definitely has some kind of shady relationship with Director Zhu of the breeding farm.
Who knows, this woman might be acting under someone's orders, deliberately trying to seduce me!
But what's the purpose?
In any case, Director Zhu is not as simple as he usually appears.
Zhao Youcai had initially been 50% skeptical of what Factory Director Zhu had said a few days ago, but now that skepticism had increased to 80%.
After thinking for a moment, Zhao Youcai said:
"It's nothing serious. We just had some bad luck a few days ago, and the kids at home are so filial that they insisted on having a meal at home to ward off the bad luck."
"I'm here to invite someone over today, but unfortunately, the officers in your department are too principled and absolutely refuse to come to my house for dinner. I figured I shouldn't disturb the officers' work, so I'll just wait here for them to finish get off work and say thank you."
Zhao Youcai's words were very well said, and at the same time, they did not give any ammunition to those with ulterior motives.
In Zhao Youcai's view, the two people in front of him were in cahoots, just like Sun Weihong, neither of them were good people.
Neither of them expected that Zhao Youcai was so wary, and his words were so meticulously crafted.
They were just a little bit smarter than Sun Weihong, that impatient and foolish woman.
Knowing the principle that too much of a good thing can be bad, the two exchanged a glance without leaving a trace.
"Then I'll head back first. Director Zhu should still be waiting for news at the breeding farm."
The young woman didn't linger and tactfully left.
Zhao Youcai breathed a sigh of relief. If the other man had continued to ramble on and on, he was afraid he might have lost his temper and punched him.
The police officer exchanged a few more pleasantries with Zhao Youcai before turning away to attend to other matters.
He dared not underestimate Zhao Youcai; only a fool would consider him a good-for-nothing, just an ordinary country bumpkin who had gotten lucky.
The more you talk, the more mistakes you make; it's safer to slip away quickly.
Unfortunately, what he didn't know was that Zhao Youcai had already become suspicious when he and that young woman appeared together at the same time.
Soon it was time to leave work, and Zhao Youcai, who came to do business, actually stood up and bowed, expressing his gratitude with a look of deep appreciation, in order to complete the charade.
Most people were baffled by Zhao Youcai's incredible maneuvering and watched with grimaces.
Only Captain Qi watched Zhao Youcai's every move thoughtfully. Having dealt with him for a long time, he believed he had some understanding of Zhao Youcai.
The old man's behavior today is a bit strange; there must be some reason for it.
However, with so many people around, now is not the time to gossip with Zhao Youcai.
After everyone witnessed Zhao Youcai's tearful gratitude, they all went home, including Captain Qi, who headed towards his own house.
