Siheyuan: The Counterattack of Passerby

Director Yang's impression of Lin Geng was originally not very good because of Yi Zhonghai's remarks, but when he saw Lin Geng appear in front of him and bowed to him so respectfully and politely to thank him, and then saw that he was handsome, with an upright posture, and his every move was neither humble nor arrogant, but polite and measured, his impression of Lin Geng became better.

So he smiled and waved his hand, saying, "You are Xiaolin? You're welcome. Sit down and talk!"

Lin Geng smiled and said, "No need, Director Yang, you must be very busy, I won't bother you any more! I just want to come over and thank you in person, thank you for taking care of me!

There is one more thing I want to explain to you, it’s about Brother Zhuzi!

After this incident, Brother Zhuzi realized one thing, that is, he had been deceived by Yi Zhonghai all these years, which was why he always protected Yi Zhonghai, which led to some unpleasant things happening between me and him!

After being released from the detention center, Brother Zhuzi publicly and sincerely apologized to me in our courtyard. Now we two brothers have reconciled and are still good brothers!

Punishment for people is nothing more than a warning to correct past mistakes. Now Brother Zhuzi has realized his mistake, accepted the punishment from the police, and sincerely apologized to me.

So the reason I came here this time was to plead for Brother Zhuzi and request the factory to exempt him from further punishment. I believe Brother Zhuzi will definitely learn his lesson and will never make such a mistake again!

I also ask Director Yang to forgive Brother Zhuzi’s mistake this time for the sake of me, the victim!

After all, he is also a victim. He made the mistake because he was deceived by Yi Zhonghai. Besides, he did not cause any harm to me. I have completely forgiven him! Director Yang, can you give me this face? I will not thank you for your kindness. Brother Zhuzi and I will definitely repay you in the future!"

Having said that, Lin Geng bowed deeply to Director Yang again.

Sha Zhu stood awkwardly behind Lin Geng. Listening to what Lin Geng said, he was so moved that tears almost burst out and his eyes suddenly turned red.

After listening to Lin Geng's words, he saw Lin Geng winking at him. Sha Zhu also learned his lesson at this time. He peeled off his face and stuffed it into his pocket. He took a step forward and bowed deeply to Director Yang. His eyes were red and his voice was a little choked. He said with a face full of shame:

"Director Yang, I know I was wrong! I can't blame Yi Zhonghai for deceiving me. I was too foolish before and was played like a fool. Now I really know I was wrong. Please give me another chance to correct my mistakes. I promise to work hard in the cafeteria and serve the leaders and the workers in the factory! I will not let the leaders down for their care and love for me!"

What Sha Zhu said was actually what Lin Geng told him in advance when he was taking him to see Director Yang. Although he didn't remember it all, he still remembered the general meaning and repeated it to Director Yang by imitating what he had said.

Director Yang originally had some prejudice against Lin Geng, but after seeing Lin Geng's performance, that prejudice was greatly alleviated.

He thought to himself that if he were Lin Geng and was bullied to that extent by Yi Zhonghai and the bunch of beasts in the courtyard at that time, he probably wouldn't be able to endure it. In fact, if it were him, he might even want to pick up a knife and kill someone.

Who could still remain rational at that time? I would not recognize any relatives. No matter who you are, as long as you want to bully me, I will chop you up first. A few slaps and kicks, is actually considered very restrained, right?

As for the slapping of the deaf old lady in the face, he actually asked Secretary Chen to investigate it. Secretary Chen came back and told him that the deaf old lady saw Lin Geng kicking Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu over, so she immediately got angry. Relying on her old age and the fact that Yi Zhonghai praised her as the ancestor of their courtyard, she raised her cane and wanted to hit Lin Geng on the head. As a result, Lin Geng was angered, and Lin Geng took away her cane and slapped her hard in the face.

In fact, when he thought about it carefully, he felt that there was nothing wrong with Lin Geng's behavior at that time. If it were him, he estimated that he would be more ruthless.

As for the fact that Lin Geng finally extorted thousands of dollars from Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong and Jia Dongxu, now that he thought about it again, he felt relieved. Lin Geng suffered such a great injustice, he must have hated Yi Zhonghai and his gang of beasts and wanted to kill them.

According to the situation at the time, if Lin Geng continued to hold on and kept reporting to his superiors, there was a very high possibility that these people would be taken away for target practice. By then, even he, the director of the steel rolling mill, would be implicated and suffer because he interceded for those beasts.

But because of his intimidation and inducement, Lin Geng finally swallowed his anger and only extorted a sum of money from those beasts. This was already enough face for him. He couldn't vent his anger on Lin Geng just because he extorted a large sum of money from those beasts.

What's more, after meeting Yi Zhonghai today, he no longer had any good feelings towards Yi Zhonghai. Instead, he felt that Lin Geng had extorted a large sum of money from him, which was quite satisfying. It was really a pity that a hypocrite like Yi Zhonghai was not taken to the target shooting.

So by this time, the prejudice he had against Lin Geng had basically disappeared.

Seeing that Lin Geng was so sincere in pleading for He Yuzhu, and He Yuzhu rarely showed his reckless nature and sincerely admitted his mistake, he no longer had the heart to punish Sha Zhu.

What's more, Sha Zhu was indeed a bit honest and straightforward. He made this mistake because he was taken advantage of by that hypocrite Yi Zhonghai. There was no need for him to offend Lin Geng. So he was about to agree to Lin Geng's proposal when the phone on the table rang.

Director Yang then signaled Lin Geng and Sha Zhu to wait for a moment while he answered the phone. Lin Geng and Sha Zhu nodded to show that they understood, and stood quietly in the room, waiting for Director Yang to answer the phone.

Director Yang picked up the phone and put it to his ear, saying, "Hello, who is this? ... Oh... Yes, I'm Yang Jianwu! What...? Really? ... Oh... Oh... Oh... I see, I see. Don't worry, he has already reported to the factory and is an employee of our steel rolling mill. I will definitely remember this and give him due praise and rewards! Don't worry! Our factory will never let such a good comrade suffer any injustice! Yes, yes... yes! That's it!"

After Director Yang picked up the phone, his expression suddenly changed when he heard the voice clearly. He looked at Lin Geng in front of him with surprise, listened to the phone carefully, and finally expressed his opinion one after another, saying that he remembered it and seemed to want to reward someone.

Lin Geng noticed that Director Yang was looking at him strangely, so he immediately thought of the time when he rescued Lao Liu by the river. He felt that the call might be related to him. Maybe a certain department reported the matter to the steel mill and directly notified Director Yang. Otherwise, Director Yang would not have looked at him with such a strange look.

As expected, after Director Yang put down the phone, his expression immediately became more enthusiastic. He stood up from behind his desk, strode to Lin Geng, and stretched out his hands to him. Lin Geng did not dare to neglect it, and quickly stretched out his hands and shook hands with him. Director Yang shook Lin Geng's hands vigorously, with a look of surprise and joy on his face, and said to Lin Geng:

"Xiao Lin! Didn't you bravely injure two armed secret agents and rescue a leader from the two secret agents at the river a few days ago? Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing?"
