Siheyuan: Revenge of the Stupid Pillar

Steel rolling mill, third canteen.

"Sister Lan, Sister Lan!"

Liu Lan, who was picking vegetables, looked up and saw Xu Damao sneaking around his door. He frowned and asked, "What are you doing?"

Xu Damao smiled flatteringly and said, "Sister Lan, please come out for a moment. I have something to ask you!"

Liu Lan dropped the dish in her hand, walked out of the kitchen reluctantly, and said lightly: "Xu Damao, if you have anything to say, please tell me quickly. I'm busy."

Xu Damao asked anxiously, "Liu Lan, did the police come to question Liang Ladi last night?"

Liu Lan said without hesitation: "Yes!"

Xu Damao asked hastily, "Liang Ladi didn't say anything about me, did she?"

Liu Lan teased, "Why? You, Xu Damao, are also afraid sometimes?"

Xu Damao said anxiously: "Hey, my dear Sister Lan, please tell me quickly! I am almost dying of anxiety."

Liu Lan glanced at him coldly, "Don't worry, Liang Ladi didn't say that you flirted with her, she just said that she had some quarrels with you."

Hearing this, Xu Damao heaved a sigh of relief and said happily, "Great! Sister Lan, please thank Comrade Liang Ladi for me."

Liu Lan glanced at him and asked, "Just a verbal thank you?"

Xu Damao's eyes paused slightly, then he took out five yuan from his left pocket, and then took out two yuan from his right pocket.

"Sister Lan, this five yuan is a thank-you gift to Liang Ladi, and this two yuan is for you, Sister Lan!"

Liu Lan took the money quickly and said with a smile, "That's good enough!"

Xu Damao's eyes flashed with a trace of heartache, and he said with a fake smile: "Sister Lan, I won't bother you anymore, I'll go to work."

Liu Lan looked at the money in her hand without even raising her eyelids, and said casually: "Go ahead!"

In the blink of an eye, it was noon.

At lunch time, Liu Lan arrived at He Yuzhu's office on time.

"Zhu Zi, has Xu Damao become rich recently?"

"Why do you ask?"

"I don't know what's wrong with Xu Damao. He said he wanted to thank me and Liang Ladi, so he gave me two yuan and Liang Ladi five yuan."

"Why should Xu Damao thank you two?" He Yuzhu looked puzzled.

Upon hearing this, Liu Lan calmly told He Yuzhu the whole story.

After hearing this, He Yuzhu slammed the table and said loudly: "The person who beat Yi Zhonghai was indeed Xu Damao."

Liu Lan was surprised and asked, "Yi Zhonghai was beaten?"

He Yuzhu nodded slightly, "Yes, Yi Zhonghai was beaten with a club when he got home from get off work last night. I heard it was pretty serious."

Liu Lan asked, "Are you so sure that Xu Damao did it?"

He Yuzhu grinned and chuckled, "Isn't this obvious? Yi Zhonghai wants to send Xu Damao to prison, so Xu Damao will naturally take revenge!"

"Xu Damao just received the news in the afternoon that Yi Zhonghai was beaten when he returned home from get off work. With such a tight time, how did Xu Damao find the time to find someone to ambush Yi Zhonghai?" Liu Lan asked puzzledly.

He Yuzhu smiled calmly, "Don't forget about Zhao Jieba being beaten. Xu Damao must have someone familiar with this matter. He only needs to pass on a message to the other party and the matter will be done."

Liu Lan frowned and asked, "Are you saying that the people who beat up the stutterer and the people who beat up Yi Zhonghai are the same group of people?"

He Yuzhu nodded and said, "Eighty percent of the time, Xu Damao can't find another group of people in such a short time."

Liu Lan suddenly said worriedly: "Zhu Zi, will Xu Damao hire someone to ambush you? After all, you have a grudge against him."

He Yuzhu said with a relaxed look on his face: "Don't worry, with my skills, three or five people can't hurt me at all."

Liu Lan pouted and said, "Three or five people can't hurt me at all? Are you that powerful?"

He Yuzhu put his arm around Liu Lan's waist and said in an ambiguous tone, "Don't you know best whether I'm powerful or not?"

Liu Lan angrily opened He Yuzhu's hand and scolded: "You are so annoying. I am talking to you about serious matters, but you bring up that again!"

“For me, this is business!”

After He Yuzhu finished speaking, he looked at Liu Lan with lustful eyes. Liu Lan trembled all over and her heart beat faster...

Enter the VIP section below.

Three days later, He Yuzhu was reading in the office when Secretary Bai suddenly visited.

"Deputy Director He, the factory director wants you to go to his office."

"I'll go right away."

When He Yuzhu came to the factory director's office, not only Yang Xinmin was there, but also Ma Hongjun and Luo Zhengyang, whom he had met before.

When Luo Zhengyang saw He Yuzhu, he hurried over, enthusiastically took He Yuzhu's hand, and said kindly: "Master He, we meet again."

He Yuzhu asked curiously, "Chief Luo, Chief Ma, why are you here?"

Luo Zhengyang said with a smile on his face: "Master He, we came here specially to see you today."

He Yuzhu seemed to have thought of something and asked anxiously, "Have all the spies been caught?"

Luo Zhengyang smiled and nodded. "In fact, the spies who wanted to blow up the power plant were caught a few days ago. After these spies confessed, we have arrested many more spies one after another."

"Comrade He Yuzhu, because of your information, we not only saved the power plant this time, but also destroyed more than a dozen spy bases, arrested nearly a hundred spies, and seized countless guns and ammunition."

"Comrade He Yuzhu, you have performed a great service this time."

He Yuzhu said modestly: "Chief Luo, you are too kind. I just provided a piece of information. The rest was done by you police officers. I dare not take credit for it."

"Master He, you can't say that. Without the information you provided, we would not have been able to catch so many spies." Luo Zhengyang said with a smile.

Ma Hongjun said, "Master He, don't be so modest. You have indeed made great contributions this time. We are here to present you with a reward."

Luo Zhengyang immediately announced He Yuzhu's rewards, a certificate of honor for being a good citizen of the capital, a record of great merit, and a reward of 50 yuan.

Luo Zhengyang added: "Comrade He Yuzhu, the chief originally intended to invite you to attend our unit's commendation meeting, but considering your request for confidentiality, we can only present you the award in private. I hope you don't mind!"

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "I don't mind, not at all, this is good!"

Yang Xinmin suddenly said, "Zhu Zi, you are just too cautious. There are so many police officers in the capital, what are you afraid of retaliation?"

Yang Xinmin was somewhat dissatisfied with He Yuzhu's decision to keep it confidential. He Yuzhu had made such a great contribution, and if it was well publicized, it would be an honor for him as the factory director.

As for whether He Yuzhu would be retaliated against, it was not within his consideration at all.

Luo Zhengyang said solemnly: "Director Yang, Master He is not cautious, nor is he timid, but he is far-sighted."

"These spies are extremely vicious and have no humanity. If they really knew that it was Master He who caused their operation to fail and cause heavy losses, they would definitely take revenge on Master He."

"Master He is just an ordinary person who has not received any training. If he is really targeted by the spies, he will be in great danger. So I hope Director Yang will keep it a secret."

Upon hearing this, Yang Xinmin's pupils trembled and he said in a trembling voice, "Don't worry, Chief Luo, I will keep my mouth shut."
