I am doing well in the Siheyuan

Liu Haizhong thought hard all night, rehearsing all possible situations in his mind.

Worried that Ye Ming would embezzle the watch, he waited in the rain at the gate of their courtyard for nearly half an hour this morning.

Liu Haizhong was secretly proud of this, believing that he was the only one who was so meticulous and could survive in this world.

As expected, Liu Haizhong's action made Ye Ming look at him with admiration.

If he had not been blinded by power, he probably would not have been easily controlled by Deputy Director Li.

"Did you really forget your watch at home?"

Seeing Ye Ming remained silent, Liu Haizhong's face darkened and the smile on his face became stiff.

"How could that be possible? How could I not take your instructions seriously?"

Ye Ming smiled slightly, took out a watch from his pocket and showed it to him.

"Look, it's right here."

Liu Haizhong finally breathed a sigh of relief, at least this kid didn't fool him.

"I knew you were a reliable guy, I'm glad you didn't forget it."

"Uncle Yi, it's getting late. I have to take Xiaoxin to school. I'll leave now."

After saying that, Ye Ming drove Xiao Xin away into the drizzle.

"Every autumn rain brings a chill. Life is not easy."

Inside the steel mill kitchen.

I don't know who suddenly made such a sigh, and others followed suit.

"No matter how hard life is, we can still get through it. Things will get better and better."

"I just hope it won't get any worse than it is now, I won't expect it to get better and better."

"Okay, the most important thing is to do your job well."

Qin Huairu smiled and shook her head. She had been in the kitchen for a long time and was familiar with everyone.

Because they are older, they often speak in a parental tone, and no one thinks there is anything wrong with it.

"Xiao Ye, Director Yang is looking for you."

"understood."

After talking with the canteen director across the air, Ye Ming got up and left the kitchen.

The news that Ye Ming walked into the factory director's office spread quickly, and Deputy Director Li and Liu Haizhong also took action.

"Director Yang, do you want to talk to me about something?"

"Xiao Ye is here, sit down. It's not a big deal. Director Lou just asked me to ask what your relationship with that girl is."

"Even Director Lou knows about it? Comrade Old Yang, you are too talkative, aren't you? You tell everyone that I have a girl at home. If this were a wartime situation, someone like you who easily leaks secrets would definitely be a traitor!"

Ye Ming smiled bitterly. Having such a leader, he could only accept it helplessly.

Director Yang also understood that this matter was not handled properly, but Director Lou and the superiors asked about Ye Ming's recent situation, and such an important matter could not be concealed.

"Just consider it as a favor I owe you. Tell me first, what happened between you and that girl? Is she the one I saw at the school gate?"

Still wanting to satisfy his curiosity at this moment, Ye Ming shook his head helplessly again.

"Don't worry about it. It hasn't even started yet. Don't scare the girl away."

"You are really good, you are very low-key and brought the girl home quietly. Don't learn from Xu Damao."

"So I am such an unreliable person in your eyes?"

“I don’t know if it’s reliable or not, but it’s quite worrying.”

bang bang bang...

Just as Director Yang finished speaking, there was a sudden knock on the door. Before anyone could respond, Deputy Director Li led a group of people into the office.

"Li Huaide, what are you trying to do?"

This sudden change made Director Yang stunned. Seeing that this group of people were so aggressive and obviously did not take him, the director, seriously, a surge of anger instantly surged in his heart.

He slammed his palm on the desk, and the deafening sound made Liu Haizhong, who was standing next to him, shudder.

"Director Yang, I just received a report with your real name, alleging that you accepted bribes from others and used your position to seek illegal benefits for others. The amount involved is as high as more than 140 yuan. In order to protect your reputation, I specially asked Chief Zhao of the Security Department to come with me to find out the truth."

"Nonsense, Li Huaide, you are insinuating yourself, right? The letters reporting you are piled up half a meter high here. Do you want me to read them to you one by one?"

Director Yang's counterattack made Deputy Director Li's face change suddenly, but he was not panicked. He knew that he was acting cautiously and there was no real evidence even if someone reported him.

Otherwise, Director Yang would have come to us long ago.

"Don't try to change the subject, Chief Zhao."

Deputy Director Li turned to the middle-aged man beside him. Section Chief Zhao glanced at Ye Ming calmly, then returned his gaze to Director Yang.

This matter is quite tricky for him and is obviously a power struggle.

Even if an investigation is to be carried out, the primary target should be Li Huaide himself.

However, faced with real-name reports, he could not sit idly by.

"Director Yang, an employee has indeed reported you for suspected bribery. We are doing this to clear your name and to tell the truth to all the employees in the factory. We hope you can cooperate with our investigation."

"Real-name reporting? Who is it?"

Director Yang knew clearly what he had done and understood that Li Huaide was framing him, but he didn't understand why it happened so suddenly.

He has worked diligently in his position for many years. Although he does not dare to claim that he has made outstanding contributions, he is by no means a mediocre person. He has never been involved in any work style issues. Even if there are some minor flaws, they would not cause such a big stir.

"it's me!"

Liu Haizhong never thought that one day he would be able to stand up straight in front of Director Yang!

"You? You are..."

Director Yang looked at the familiar figure in front of him, thought for a moment, and suddenly realized: "Oh, I remember you are the seventh-level technician in the forging workshop, right?"

As a senior technician, he is an important pillar of the steel rolling mill, and Director Yang has some knowledge of his information.

If you get on Li Huaide's boat, I'm afraid there will be no good ending.

"Do you know the consequences of framing a director of a state-owned enterprise?"

These words hit Liu Haizhong like a heavy hammer, and Deputy Director Li cursed inwardly, but finally had to take action himself.

"Liu Haizhong, don't be afraid. As long as what you say is true, the factory will not only not hold you responsible for bribery, but will also publicly commend you for your righteous actions."

Hearing this, Liu Haizhong made up his mind and went for it.

"Director Yang, I wonder if the Enicar watch I gave you is comfortable to wear?"

"What watch? I don't know what you're talking about."

"Director Yang, don't play dumb. I still have the shopping receipt from the mall. I'm not afraid that you won't admit it."

"You want to frame a state-owned enterprise official based on just one invoice? Li Huaide, this is not all you have prepared, is it?"

Director Yang knows that he is innocent and is well aware that it is easy to find a pretext to accuse someone of a crime, but Li Huaide is not someone who will act rashly.

"If you have a clear conscience, would you allow us to search your office?"

"Li Huaide, don't push your luck. What right do you have to search my office?"
