Siheyuan: After traveling through time, who can still be an honest person?

"Ah, help me, Chief Cao, I was wrong, ah, Grandpa Cao, ah, please forgive me, ah..."

Xu Damao screamed and begged for mercy.

Qin Jingru had never seen such a scene before. She was so frightened that her face turned pale and her slender legs kept shaking.

She didn't dare to step forward and beg for mercy, and could only look at her cousin helplessly.

Qin Huairu held her cousin's arm, shook her head at her, and secretly felt relieved.

Fortunately, I warned Cao Yue in advance, so I made a good relationship with him.

Yi Zhonghai stood behind and watched everything coldly.

He knew from the beginning that Liu Haizhong and Xu Damao were no match for Cao Yue, and now it turned out to be just as he expected.

The fat on Liu Haizhong's face twitched. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, suddenly took a step forward, and said in a trembling voice:

"My neighbors, I have been deceived by Xu Damao. From now on, I will never be compatible with him and we will cut ties completely."

"Down with Liu Haizhong!" Cao Yue suddenly shouted loudly.

"Down with Liu Haizhong!"

The people around started shouting, with Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu shouting the loudest.

"What do you want to do?"

Seeing that everyone let Xu Damao go and were slowly approaching him, Liu Haizhong was so scared that he retreated repeatedly.

"I am the leader of the special case team of the Revolutionary Committee of the Steel Rolling Mill. If you dare to attack me, I will..."

Snapped!

Cao Yue slapped him.

Liu Haizhong was hit like a top, spinning three times on the spot, and then collapsed to the ground with stars in his eyes.

"Knock Liu Haizhong to the ground and step on him!"

While shouting, Cao Yue raised his right foot and stepped on Liu Haizhong's chest.

Next, amidst the screams in his bangs, countless feet began to trample on him.

Half an hour later.

When Li Huaide and Chen Jimin arrived.

Liu Haizhong and Xu Damao had bruised faces and noses and looked like unrecognizable people.

"Director Li, Xu Damao helped my father-in-law's family escape. Liu Haizhong colluded with him despite knowing the truth, and even shamelessly tried to implicate me. Fortunately, the public has sharp eyes, and I was able to clear my name."

Cao Yue looked angry and handed over the letter.

After reading the letter, Li Huaide looked at Cao Yue deeply, twitched the corners of his mouth, and pulled him aside.

"Xiao Cao, you've been wronged. I heard from Section Chief Chen that Liu Haizhong dared to beat you down, so I immediately ran over to stop him."

Li Huaide first distanced himself from the matter, saying that he had no knowledge of it beforehand and that it was all Liu Haizhong's fault.

Cao Yue's expression eased slightly and he nodded: "Director, I know how much you care about me."

Li Huaide glanced at Liu Haizhong and Xu Damao, thinking that he must rescue them.

Of course, the prerequisite is not to let Cao Yue resent him.

"Xiao Cao, you know, I just recommended Liu Haizhong to my superiors, and they approved his appointment. It's been less than half a day and this happened. Not only is the boss embarrassed, but our entire steel mill is also embarrassed."

"How about this? Let's temporarily spare Liu Haizhong today. After a month, I promise you that I will definitely remove him from his post. You can do whatever you want with him then."

Li Huaide pleaded.

He didn't expect Liu Haizhong to be such a fool. Not only did he fail to accomplish the task, but he also got himself involved.

But, we have to save him.

Now is the time to fight for control of the steel mill, and he must not let anyone use this as an excuse to attack him.

"Of course, I won't let you suffer in vain. The position of deputy director of the Revolutionary Committee of our steel mill is still vacant, and we need young and promising comrades like you to take on the important task."

"I'll recommend it to the higher-ups in a few days."

Li Huaide finally made a solemn promise.

Cao Yue thought about it and agreed.

He didn't want to create any more trouble with the matter of Lou Xiao'e.

After all, further investigation would do no good to me.

However, we can't let Liu Haizhong off easily.

"Director, Liu Haizhong defamed my reputation in revenge. I can let him go for now, but you must give me some mental compensation."

"Okay, you can discuss the specific amount with him yourself."

Li Huaide agreed without hesitation and then glanced at Xu Damao.

"As for Xu Damao..."

Li Huaide pondered. If he didn't save Xu Damao, he might be in trouble if he decided to give up and reveal the fact that he had given him the gold bars.

I can only secretly warn Xu Damao and remind him what to say and what not to say.

"Director Li, I am innocent. Liu Haizhong wanted to take revenge on Section Chief Cao, so he forced me to frame him. In fact, Lou Xiao'e had nothing to do with Section Chief Cao!"

"That letter must have been left there by Lou Xiao'e, who knew I was going to report the Lou family, to harm me."

Xu Damao hugged Li Huaide's thighs and cried.

"Xu Damao, you are talking nonsense, you bastard..."

When Liu Haizhong heard Xu Damao pushing everything onto him, he ignored the pain all over his body and started cursing at Xu Damao.

"That's enough! Shut up!"

Li Huaide shouted loudly, interrupting the dog-eat-dog fight between the two.

His original intention was to find something to hold against Cao Yue, but he held back.

The purpose was to make Cao Yue work for him.

In the end, it was messed up by these two idiots.

"Lock up Xu Damao first, and deal with him after the matter is thoroughly investigated!"

At Li Huaide's command, Chen Jimin immediately led the security personnel to carry Xu Damao up.

Xu Damao still wanted to protest his innocence, but Li Huaide gave him a death stare, which scared him so much that he dared not utter a word.

Afterwards, Li Huaide called Liu Haizhong aside and whispered a few words to him. Liu Haizhong nodded wildly in surprise.

"Chief Cao, I'll leave this to you."

Li Huaide asked Chen Jimin to take the gold that was found and took Xu Damao away.

"Old Liu, come here?" Cao Yue waved at Liu Haizhong sinisterly.

The fat face with bangs had long turned into a pig's head. Upon hearing the words, he limped over to Cao Yue.

Cao Yue led him into the backyard, looked around to see if there was anyone around, and grabbed his neck.

"Ouch, Chief Cao, we can talk it over." Liu Haizhong cried out in pain.

Bang!

Cao Yue punched Liu Haizhong in the lower abdomen.

"Well--!"

His eyes bulged out, veins on his forehead throbbed, and he was sweating coldly from the pain.

The body slowly knelt on the ground.

"Give me a thousand dollars tonight to make amends. If you pay me one cent less, I'll kill you."

clap clap!

Cao Yue patted his fat face with bangs, turned and left.

Liu Haizhong groaned and lay on the ground.

……

"Chief Cao, please take a seat. I know you are wrongly accused."

When Cao Yue returned to the central courtyard, Yan Bugui ran over like a lackey and invited Cao Yue to sit on it.

"Now please let Chief Cao speak."

clap clap clap!

The people around immediately applauded.

Yu Li looked at Cao Yue's majestic aura and demeanor, then turned her head to look at Yan Jiecheng, a hunched old man, and felt a sense of depression in her chest.

She has been a strong-willed person since she was young, and at that time she wanted to find an honest man so that the couple would not quarrel.

Now she regrets it so much that her intestines turn green.

Another person who regretted it was Qin Jingru.

After the whole hospital meeting, Qin Jingru returned to the Jia family, grabbed her cousin's arm, and asked helplessly:

"Sister, what should I do next?"

"Your body is still intact, so what are you afraid of? At worst I can find you a new husband." Qin Huairu said indifferently.

"That's right. It's hard to find a three-legged frog, but there are plenty of two-legged men." Jia Zhang glanced at Qin Jingru and curled her lips.

She suddenly felt that Qin Jingru was a jinx.

I went on blind dates with two people, and both ended in disaster.

Sha Zhu was demoted to the workshop, and Xu Damao was probably in an even worse situation.

……

night.

Boom boom boom!

Cao Yue was listening to music when there was a knock on the door. He opened the door and saw Qin Jingru standing outside timidly.

"What are you here for?"

"Cao...Chief Cao, Xu Damao asked me to tell you that he wants to settle the matter privately with you." Qin Jingru said stutteringly.

"I asked you to come and settle it with me privately?"

Cao Yue glanced at Qin Jingru with a meaningful look.
