Siheyuan: Crossing the two worlds, if you don't obey, you will be a beast

Liu Lan dragged her exhausted body out of the office in despair, her heart filled with humiliation and resentment. She didn't know how long she would have to endure this torture, and she only hoped to get rid of Deputy Director Li's control as soon as possible. However, the reality was so cruel that she had no power to change the status quo. She could only bear it silently.

Back home, Liu Lan lay on the bed, tears streaming down her face. She thought of her past dreams and pursuits, but now she has become like this. She felt extremely desperate and helpless, and even thought about suicide. But in the end, she chose to live. Because she knew that only by living can there be hope.

From then on, Liu Lan became silent and no longer had her former smile. She lived like a zombie every day, as if she had lost her soul. And the culprit of all this was Deputy Director Li. But compared to her own life, the pressure of life forced her to bow to such filth...

In this way, Liu Lan dragged her heavy and painful body and fell into a drowsy sleep.

In her dream, she saw an astonishing scene: the demon who had once assaulted her, Deputy Director Li, was arrested by Director Li himself. All his crimes were exposed, and he had to leave the steel mill in disgrace. In the end, he was ruthlessly taken away by the people's police.

With the end of this nightmare, Liu Lan's life began to turn around. Because she bravely stood up and cooperated with Director Li's investigation, she successfully brought down Deputy Director Li. Therefore, she not only won everyone's respect and praise, but also got the opportunity to be promoted and get a raise. From then on, she no longer had to rely on men's faces to make a living, and could live independently with her chest held high.

If someone saw her now, they would definitely see Liu Lan sleeping soundly with a smile on her face...

Just like this, the night passed directly. When Liu Lan woke up from her sweet dream, she found that the new day was still a nightmare day. She was still the poor woman who depended on the tyranny of Deputy Director Li. In fact, she was not really a woman. She could only be said to be a tool for the other party to vent his anger.

Liu Lan opened her eyes with difficulty, feeling the pain coming from her body, as if every cell was protesting and groaning. The hatred in her heart surged like a tide, and that hateful Deputy Director Li became an indelible shadow in her heart.

However, the burden of life did not lighten a bit, and she had to support her family, which forced her to face reality. Although her heart was filled with pain and resentment, she still gritted her teeth and tried her best to support her heavy body. Every movement was accompanied by piercing pain, but she did not retreat at all.

She knew that if she collapsed at this moment, the whole family would be in trouble. So, she endured the severe pain and began to get busy, washing clothes, cooking, cleaning the room... Everything was so familiar and difficult. When everything was ready, Liu Lan walked towards the steel mill exhausted.

Along the way, her steps seemed extremely heavy, as if she was carrying the weight of the world. But she still moved forward firmly, because she knew what work meant to the family. In the steel mill, Liu Lan tried hard to work and forget those unpleasant memories. She was concentrating on operating the machine, and her clothes were soaked with sweat, but she didn't care.

Time passed quietly, and the day's work finally came to an end. Liu Lan dragged her tired body back home, and she felt extremely relieved to see the happy smiles of her children. At this moment, all the hard work and efforts seemed insignificant. She secretly told herself: "As long as my family can be happy, it is worth it no matter how hard or tired I am!"

On the day when Liu Lan continued to live and work numbly, a security officer found Liu Lan mysteriously and told her: "Director Li wants to see you." This sentence hit Liu Lan like a bolt of lightning, and she was stunned instantly. She had countless questions in her mind: "What is so special about me that this big director personally sent someone to invite me?"

With a heart full of doubts and uneasiness, Liu Lan followed the security commissioner on the journey to the security department. Along the way, her mood was like being tightly grasped by an invisible hand, full of anxiety and worry. She kept guessing the possible reasons, but she was still unable to determine what was waiting for her.

Finally, they arrived at the Security Department. Liu Lan was so nervous that she could hardly breathe, and she walked into the office carefully. As soon as she entered the door, her eyes immediately fell on Director Li who was sitting behind the desk. His expression was serious and solemn, which made people feel an invisible pressure.

"Comrade Liu Lan, please take a seat." Director Li's voice was calm and low, but with an unquestionable majesty.

Liu Lan sat down nervously, clasping her hands tightly together, staring at Director Li, waiting for him to speak. At this moment, she seemed to be in an unknown world, everything became confusing, and only Director Li's words could reveal the mystery.

Director Li was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "I know you have experienced some difficulties recently, but we have always been very satisfied with your work performance. I called you here today to tell you something important." His eyes were serious and earnest, making Liu Lan feel an invisible pressure.

Liu Lan's heart skipped a beat, not knowing what kind of news she would hear next. She looked at Director Li nervously, trying to find a clue from his expression.

Director Li continued, "After investigation, we found some problems with you." He paused, as if considering how to word it. Then, he continued, "There is something not normal between you and Deputy Director Li." This sentence was like a heavy bomb, exploding in Liu Lan's heart. Her face turned pale in an instant, and tears welled up in her eyes. She couldn't believe what she heard, and her heart was filled with pain and despair.

"How is this possible..." She muttered to herself, her voice trembling. "You must be mistaken! There is no improper relationship between me and Deputy Director Li!" Her eyes were flashing with anger and grievance, and tears kept flowing down.

Director Li looked at Liu Lan quietly, as if waiting for her reaction. After a while, he said softly: "We have enough evidence to prove that there is indeed a special relationship between you. This not only affects your personal reputation, but also has a negative impact on the image of the factory."

Liu Lan's body trembled slightly. She couldn't accept this fact. She tried to recall every contact with Deputy Director Li, but she couldn't find any place that could be misunderstood. She firmly believed that she was innocent, but how could she explain it in the face of such solid evidence?

"I really don't know what happened..." she choked, "Please give me a chance to prove my innocence!" Her eyes were firm and persistent, hoping to be treated fairly.

Director Li sighed and softened his tone a little: "We will investigate this matter further. If we find any misunderstanding, we will definitely give you justice. But in the meantime, you need to continue working temporarily, but you must cooperate with our investigation secretly."

Liu Lan nodded, indicating her willingness to cooperate. Although her heart was filled with pain and confusion, she still firmly believed that she was innocent. She decided to prove her innocence with her actions, no matter how much it cost.

"No... Impossible... How could this be possible? How could my secret be exposed..." Liu Lan muttered to herself in confusion, her voice trembling.

Director Li looked at Liu Lan's reaction, sighed, and then said softly: "I understand your feelings, but this is the fact. However, I want to remind you that as an employee of the steel rolling mill and a temporary worker, you need to cooperate with our investigation and provide any information related to the case. At the same time, you must also pay attention to your own safety. If, I say if you are forced to do all this, then I will deal with you at my discretion. Do you understand this?"
