Factory Director Li had to admire Xu Qingqing for still being able to smile at this moment.
Walking over to the two of them, I saw that they were still in the mood to read the note, especially Xu Qingqing, who was laughing so unrestrainedly…
Bo Jingran put away the note and was thinking about something when he noticed that Director Li was staring at them with wide eyes.
Factory Director Li pointed at the two men and began to rage: "Don't you two know what time it is? Especially you, with something so urgent happening, you're still laughing so happily."
He lowered his voice and said, "Old Ji's wife is not easy to get along with. Now that Old Ji is in trouble, you can expect to be entangled by her."
"Director Li, you should take a look at what's on this before you get angry."
Bo Jingran remained calm and handed him the small note in his hand.
Factory Director Li took the small note from Bo Jingran, opened it, and his expression suddenly changed. He looked up at Bo Jingran and asked, "Where did you find this small note?"
"Old Ji!"
Upon hearing this answer, Director Li found it hard to believe. Old Ji had lived here since he was a child; how could he be an enemy agent?
Seemingly disbelieving, Factory Director Li pressed again, "Bo Gong, are you sure it's Lao Ji?"
"Yes, this little note did indeed fall from Lao Ji's hand," Bo Jingran confirmed.
Xu Qingqing couldn't stand Director Li's attitude, so she slapped him on the back and retorted, "Isn't it a happy thing that the enemy agents hiding in the steel factory have been discovered? Why are you acting like your father just died?"
Factory Director Li stumbled from the slap, nearly suffering internal injuries. Seeing that Xu Qingqing seemed to want to do it again, he took two steps back and raised his voice: "Put your hand down!"
Xu Qingqing pursed her lips, put her hands behind her back, and thought, "Tch, quick reaction."
Seeing this, Director Li breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Comrade Xu, I have to say something to you. You're a woman, can't you learn from others and be more gentle and quiet?"
Look at yourself, you're more reckless than a man!
Xu Qingqing was displeased with this and retorted, "I've never been quiet since I was born; it's my nature, and I can't change it."
She was right about that. Her mother suffered a lot when she was pregnant with her in her previous life. Perhaps because of that, she was raised by a postpartum nanny from birth.
Or perhaps, she was born with the inferior genes of both of them, which is why she acted so promiscuously.
Seeing that the two were getting further and further off-topic, Bo Jingran sighed helplessly: "It's getting late, and we still need to report Lao Ji's matter to Secretary Lin and the others. Are you sure you want to talk about other things here?"
Factory Director Li froze, then chuckled awkwardly and explained, "It's not that Comrade Xu went too far, I just couldn't help myself."
"Hey, you old rascal, you're really wicked. I was just trying to help you, how could you turn around and accuse me?"
After they finished speaking, the two started arguing again, determined to prove who was right.
Bo Jingran had a headache, took off his glasses and rubbed his temples, feeling utterly helpless as he listened to the two of them throwing tantrums like children.
Factory Director Li was furious. He couldn't win an argument or a fight, so he left with the saying, "A gentleman doesn't fight with a woman," and slunk away.
Xu Qingqing made a gesture at his departing figure before being dragged home by Bo Jingran.

Xu Qingqing received the notification and went to Director Li's office.
She opened the door and went inside, only to find that besides Secretary Lin and Factory Director Li, there was also a strange man glaring at her with an angry expression.
"You're Xu Qingqing?"
Xu Qingqing frowned in confusion, but nodded nonetheless. Then she saw the man, as if he had been hit by a firecracker, raise his fist and angrily rush up to attack her.
Xu Qingqing's eyes lit up suddenly; such a good thing had happened!
Before the man could rush forward, Secretary Lin scolded, "Li Jianjun, put your hand down. Let's sit down and talk things over. Don't lose your temper here."
Li Jianjun stared at Xu Qingqing with resentment. Thinking of his wife's broken hand, he gritted his teeth and said angrily, "Secretary Lin, she broke my wife's hand. How can you expect me to tolerate this?"
"I'm avenging my wife, is that not allowed?"
Secretary Lin was very troubled and sighed at Xu Qingqing's ability to cause trouble.
Xu Qingqing walked to a chair and sat down, crossing her arms and staring coldly at Li Jianjun, who was covered in muscles.
"You're hilarious, coming here to yell at me. Why don't you go back and ask your wife how she got involved with me? She's tried to scheme against me time and time again. Breaking her hand is her own fault."
"Bullshit! My wife said that you were targeting her. You didn't want to organize the files, so you threatened my wife and made her wet her pants. Everyone in the steel plant knows about that, so it's only right that she comes to settle accounts with you, but you broke her hand."
Li Jianjun roared angrily, and Xu Qingqing picked at her ear, then asked Secretary Lin uncertainly, "Did you understand what he said? I can't understand what he was saying?"
Secretary Lin shook his head; he didn't understand either. Then, the two of them turned their attention to Director Li.
When Director Li saw the two men looking at him, he immediately shook his head: "Don't look at me, how would I know what he means?"
Seeing that Li Jianjun couldn't speak clearly, Secretary Lin looked at Xu Qingqing and gave her a look: "Comrade Xu, why don't you tell us what happened?"
Li Jianjun objected: "Why should we let her speak? What if she lies?"
Factory Director Li slammed his fist on the table and roared at him, "If you don't want Comrade Xu to speak, then at least explain yourself clearly! Are you trying to make us guess with such half-baked information?"
Li Jianjun wanted to say something more, but Director Li glared at him and shut his mouth, listening to what Xu Qingqing had to say.
Xu Qingqing: "What else could it be? They're just eyeing my post and conspiring with Comrade Huang to plot against me."
On the first day, the two of them made me, a newcomer who knew nothing, organize two tables of files. Who could stand that?
Of course I retorted, and then she was so scared that she wet her pants. Also, it wasn't me who made a big fuss about sending Comrade Fang to the hospital, but Comrade Huang.
"It's likely that Comrade Fang hasn't treated Comrade Huang well, which is why this has happened."
"To sum up the above points, I am simply retaliating, not looking for trouble for no reason."
"Impossible. What you said is different from what my wife said. My wife said she meant well, and you're just deliberately trying to cause trouble."
Seeing that Li Jianjun didn't believe her and stubbornly insisted that his wife was right, Xu Qingqing grew impatient, turned to look at Secretary Lin and the other man, and pointed at Li Jianjun:
"Can I take action? I can't stand this idiot anymore!"
Secretary Lin was also helpless. Li Jianjun was so stubborn. He believed everything Fang Xiaomei said, regardless of right or wrong. As long as Fang Xiaomei was wronged, it was the other party's fault.
After thinking it over, Secretary Lin told Xu Qingqing to bear with it and to find someone to call Fang Xiaomei and Huang Yao over.
Xu Qingqing rolled her eyes. With people like Li Jianjun, only fists can get the better of you.
