Yu Linxiu dodged backward. Unable to catch her, the man shouted in a fit of rage.
"You're the one who asked me to come. How can you go back on your word now?"
"I don't even know you. How could I have asked you to come? You've illegally intruded into our factory, and now you're harassing me for no reason. This can't just be swept under the rug. I'm going to report you to the police."
Yu Linxiu's face suddenly changed, losing the gentle look she had before.
She had originally planned to go to the factory for product spot - checks, but on the way, she encountered this crazy man. He came over and rambled a bunch of nonsense to her, and even got physical with her!
She never thought that the factory's security would be so lax. Just anyone could get in. If someone had bad intentions, like trying to do something to the factory or set it on fire, the losses would be catastrophic. And who would be responsible for the safety of the factory workers?
The more Yu Linxiu thought about it, the more frightened she became. She raised her voice and shouted.
"Someone, come quickly!"
Seeing that she was about to shout, the man immediately covered her mouth.
"Mm!" Let go of me!
The man cursed and pushed the struggling Yu Linxiu towards an empty room. This empty room was built later for storing materials. It had just been completed and was left to dry. The door was wide open.
Yu Linxiu kicked her legs hard.
But the man was so strong that he managed to push her most of the way inside.
Yu Linxiu was so anxious that tears welled up in her eyes. Suddenly, the man's grip loosened. Yu Linxiu was stunned.
Jiang Jiang's voice rang out from behind.
"Sister Linxiu, come here quickly! I've got a stick. He can't catch you!"
Yu Linxiu came to her senses, pushed the man away, and ran outside. The man followed her out. Jiang Jiang raised the stick in her hand and struck down directly. The man rolled his eyes and staggered to the ground.
"Is he... is he not dead?"
Yu Linxiu was afraid that Jiang Jiang had hit too hard and killed the man. She stepped forward to protect the girl.
"It's okay. I know my own strength. This bastard is just playing dead!"
Jiang Jiang walked up with the stick and prodded him. The man immediately let out a yelp.
So he was really faking it.
By this time, many people had heard the commotion and rushed out. Seeing this scene, they all started asking questions.
"What's going on?"
"Who is this male comrade?"
"When did he get in here?"
"Comrade Jiang Jiang, why do you have a stick?"
Jiang Jiang snorted. "This guy came out of nowhere and was attacking Director Yu. If I hadn't run fast, Director Yu would have been injured by him! He's probably a madman!"
Everyone was in an uproar.
A crazy person that no one knew had somehow managed to get into the factory. Who wouldn't be scared?
Just then, someone in the crowd let out a surprised sound and revealed the man's identity.
"Isn't this Wang Ru's nephew? Could he be here to find his aunt?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Jiang stabbed the stick hard into the ground and sneered. "So this is the delinquent from Shengli Commune who was expelled from school for being a hooligan? What's he doing in our factory? Our factory has a clear rule that without a pass or proper application, outsiders are not allowed to set foot in the factory. I reasonably suspect that this delinquent is here to steal our factory's core technology!"
"Our business in the capital is doing well, but there are already people imitating our Dongxing Factory's products and selling them quite successfully. Maybe this guy sneaked in to spy on us!"
"Our small factory has been operating diligently, but now we're being targeted. Who knows, they might even destroy our little factory."
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of the on - lookers immediately changed.
They had finally managed to become full - time workers. They got a monthly salary of 25 yuan, free lunch, worked fewer hours, and even got holidays and gifts during festivals. Such a good job, how could they bear to leave?
Whoever dared to mess with the factory was messing with their livelihood!
Jiang Jiang's words instantly ignited the anger of the employees.
Someone dragged Wang Ru out from the corner where she was trying to sneak away.
"Where do you think you're going? How did your nephew get in here?"
Wang Ru was on the verge of tears. She had just wanted to set up a blind date for her nephew. Who could have expected things to turn out like this? Director Yu and Jiang Jiang were really something. Why couldn't they just talk things out instead of making such a big scene?
She forced a smile at Yu Linxiu. "Director Yu, have you forgotten? I told you before that I wanted to introduce my nephew to you, and you even said you'd like to meet him. I just mentioned it to my nephew, and unexpectedly, he rushed over in a hurry without saying hello first. I'm sorry for scaring everyone."
The man who had been lying on the ground pretending to be dead got up and shamelessly said, "That's right. You asked me to come here to be your boyfriend, and now you've beaten me like this. I don't care. You have to pay my medical expenses."
Yu Linxiu stared at Wang Ru, who looked extremely guilty, and remembered. Some time ago, Wang Ru had indeed talked to her about this. At that time, although she thought the other person was joking, she had still refused twice in a row. She had thought the matter was over, but unexpectedly, the other person had remembered and even went against her wishes by bringing her nephew to the factory.
Yu Linxiu took two deep breaths, fuming with anger. She was just doing her job, but out of the blue, she was forced into a blind date, and they even had the audacity to say that she should marry and give up her job to this guy.
What a toad dreaming of swallowing the moon!
She had worked in the supply and marketing cooperative for several years and had never met such a strange person. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. She directly grabbed the stick from Jiang Jiang's hand and stabbed the man hard.
"Ouch!"
"Pay up. You beat me, so you have to pay my medical expenses!"
"Ouch, I'm dying. I'm dying. Dongxing Factory is beating people!"
Several female workers quickly grabbed Yu Linxiu.
"Director Yu, calm down. It's useless to reason with such a scoundrel. If you really hurt him badly, you'll have to take care of him for the rest of his life."
"Yeah, just kick him out."
"Call someone to kick them out..."
"Just kicking him out is too lenient!"
The noisy crowd was pushed aside from the outside, and a clear and powerful voice rang out.
Everyone looked over and saw a little girl. She was wearing a red dress, with a fair and tender oval face. She was extremely eye - catching, looking as stylish as a city girl.
Everyone couldn't figure out her identity. While speculating about who she was, they fell silent for a moment.
Hua Qingqing walked up to Yu Linxiu, took a look at her, and saw a red mark on her face, presumably from being pinched.
Yu Linxiu looked at the person coming and felt a surge of security. Tears immediately welled up in her eyes.
"Qingqing..."
Hua Qingqing said, "It's okay. As long as you don't kill him, beat him to your heart's content."
Yu Linxiu was amused by her tone as if she was dealing with a rat.
"I'm not going to beat him. It'll dirty my hands."
Saying that, she was about to throw the stick away.
Hua Qingqing quickly caught it. "Hey, don't throw it away. If you don't want to beat him, I will."
After saying that, without waiting for everyone to react, she took a big step forward and struck the man hard on the leg.
"Ah!"
This scream was real, not like the fake moaning before.
Everyone was startled by her decisive action.
Wang Ru finally reacted and rushed over.
"Nephew, are you okay? You're the apple of our Wang family's eye!"
