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

"Gold, I don't have gold. Did I mention gold just now?" Xu Damao pretended to be confused.

Cao Yue sneered: "Am I deaf?"

Xu Damao smiled and said, "It was a slip of the tongue. I just slipped the tongue. I meant to say that the weather is nice today and I want to treat Chief Cao to a meal."

"You're treating me to a meal? Are you serious? Don't force it." Cao Yue teased.

"Not forced at all." Xu Damao nodded and bowed.

Cao Yue's smile suddenly disappeared, and he said seriously: "Da Mao, I know you have a deep misunderstanding of me. It must be awkward for us to have a meal together. I understand you, so it's better not to eat this meal."

"Section Chief Cao, no, I should call you Director Cao now. You are so generous. I have something else to do, so I won't bother you anymore."

It was rare for Cao Yue to be so easy to talk to, and Xu Damao was afraid that he would change his mind in a moment, so he wanted to slip away quickly.

"Wait a minute, I haven't finished speaking yet." Cao Yue called out to Xu Damao unhappily.

Xu Damao's face turned bitter, he knew that Cao Yue would not let him go easily.

"I understand your feelings and don't want you to treat me, but you come running to me early in the morning and yell at me, so I have to punish you. Why don't you just give me the money for the treat in cash? That way, wouldn't that be the best of both worlds?" Cao Yue said with a smile.

After hearing Cao Yue's idea, Xu Damao felt sad and tears welled up in his eyes.

Cao Yue sighed, "Da Mao, you don't have to be too touched. We all live in the same courtyard, so I must take your feelings into consideration. One hundred yuan is nothing to you."

"One hundred yuan..."

Xu Damao could no longer control himself and tears streamed down his face.

"Remember to give me the money tonight."

After saying this, Cao Yue waved his hand and made a gesture to chase the guest away.

……

Xu Damao stood at the door of Cao Yue's house, turned around and looked at the closed door, venting his anger at the air with his fangs and claws.

"Xu Damao, what's wrong with you?"

He Yushui's cold voice suddenly came from behind.

Xu Damao froze for a moment, then turned around stiffly and laughed dryly, "Yushui, I'm exercising."

After saying that, he ran back home.

"Neuropathy!"

He Yushui shook his head, pushed the door open, and told Cao Yue who was eating about this.

Cao Yue shook his head. Damao was being bullied so pitifully that he couldn't bear to continue.

Then he secretly cursed her for being too soft-hearted.

Being soft-hearted is a problem, so remind yourself to change it.

Qin Jingru has been taken down, and the next step is Yu Haitang.

This girl has been thinking about drugging me, and I must fulfill her wish.

"Cao Yue, I don't know what's wrong with me lately. I get sleepy easily after drinking a little." He Yushui said, staring at Cao Yue.

Cao Yue pinched her little face and said with a smile: "You lack exercise. I will accompany you to exercise after dinner."

He Yushui looked at Cao Yue charmingly, with tears in her eyes.

She actually became suspicious.

After all, he fell asleep without any warning twice in a row.

He Yushui suspected that Yu Haitang was behind this, and specifically observed the way she walked and the changes in her eyebrows, but found nothing unusual.

……

When Yi Zhonghai learned that Liu Haizhong was about to step down, he finally made up his mind.

After work, I went directly to Li Huaide’s office in the office building.

Li Huaide had an impression of Yi Zhonghai. After all, there were not many level eight fitters in the entire steel rolling mill.

"Master Yi, do you have something to talk to me about?" Li Huaide politely poured a cup of tea for Yi Zhonghai.

Yi Zhonghai bowed and said respectfully: "Director Li, I came here to report my ideological work to you."

Li Huaide understood that Yi Zhonghai wanted to get closer to him.

However, this was not a month ago.

At that time, many people in the steel mill were waiting and watching, worried that the situation would relapse.

The special promotion of Liu Haizhong was just to open up the situation and establish his own prestige.

Of course, it also means buying bones with a lot of money.

Now that he has basically taken control of the steel mill, the surrender of Yi Zhonghai, an eighth-level fitter, is dispensable.

However, since people are here, they still have to use it.

"Master Yi, I understand your intention. Let's put it this way. Liu Haizhong has been suspended. I have decided to appoint Xu Damao as the leader of the special task force, but he is too young and needs the guidance of an old comrade. If you are willing, you can serve as the deputy leader."

When Yi Zhonghai heard this, his face turned ugly.

I thought that with my qualifications, I could easily take over Liu Haizhong's position.

After all, his technical skills as an eighth-level fitter are higher than Liu Haizhong's seventh-level blacksmith.

Now not only can he only be the deputy team leader, but the team leader is also Xu Damao. How can he be willing to accept this?

Yi Zhonghai felt a little aggrieved and felt that Li Huaide did not recognize talent.

Is he worse than Liu Haizhong and Xu Damao?

Li Huaide saw that Yi Zhonghai was unhappy, and his face turned cold: "Master Yi, if you don't agree, then forget it."

"I agree. Thank you for the promotion, Director. I will definitely assist Comrade Xu Damao in doing his job well."

Seeing that his position as deputy team leader was about to be lost, Yi Zhonghai quickly agreed.

First get the position, then slowly work your way up.

……

Yi Zhonghai returned to the workshop and saw Sha Zhu sitting in the corner in a daze.

"Zhu Zi, what's wrong?" Yi Zhonghai walked over and asked.

Sha Zhu raised his eyelids and glanced at Yi Zhonghai, then said dejectedly, "Uncle Yi, do you think I will never have a wife in this life?"

"Your relationship with Teacher Ran has failed again?"

Yi Zhonghai looked at Sha Zhu's pitiful appearance and wanted to laugh but held it back.

Sha Zhu is very smart in other matters, but he is completely confused when it comes to blind dates.

Even an outsider like Yi Zhonghai could see that it was Qin Huairu who was doing bad things every time, but Sha Zhu, as the person involved, didn't notice it at all.

Maybe he knows, but pretends to be confused.

Sha Zhu sighed, "We were obviously talking well. I prepared several tables of wedding banquets for Teacher Ran's friends. All relatives and friends were very satisfied with the food, and Teacher Ran also had face. But then, for some reason, Teacher Ran became cold to me and even told me to cherish the person in front of me, because some people need my care more."

"Ah, you keep saying things I don't understand. There's no one in front of me!"

"Zhu Zi, don't be sad, I'll tell you something happy."

Yi Zhonghai smiled and consoled him: "Director Li just asked me to go to his office. He wanted me to be the deputy leader of the special task force of the steel mill workers' picket team."

"You agreed?" Sha Zhu's attention was indeed attracted.

"I didn't want to agree at first. You know me well. I'm never interested in politics. But I thought you were still suffering in the workshop, so I thought after I became the deputy team leader, I would ask Director Li to transfer you back to the cafeteria."

"Uncle Yi, I'm sorry for wronging you. Why are you so nice to me?"

Sha Zhu believed it and was so moved that he almost cried.

He had suffered a setback in his relationship and was at his most vulnerable. Now, when he heard that Yi Zhonghai had compromised and was willing to become an official for him, a warm feeling flowed through his heart.

Just now.

The radio speaker sounded, and Yu Haitang's powerful and beautiful voice came out.

Just heard the broadcast.

Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu were both stunned.

Cao Yue unexpectedly became the deputy director...
