Siheyuan: Qin Huairu relies on me

After Zhang Jun left, Zhao Xiyan was just planning to take a nap, but unexpectedly the bell for the end of get off work rang.

He had no choice but to get up slowly and open the office door.

"Minister, let's eat?" Li Li joked.

"If you have nothing to say, then stop being polite. What else can you do if you don't go to eat in the middle of the day?" Zhao Xiyan scolded with a smile.

"Hahaha."

Everyone laughed.

"What do you think of the manuscript?" Zhao Xiyan asked.

"Not bad, someone has written a novel... I plan to take the manuscript to the newspaper office this afternoon to have a look." Li Li said seriously, "After all, this is our first time as an editor, and our skills are limited..."

“That’s the right attitude to work.”

Zhao Xiyan nodded with a smile, "If you want to borrow a car from the car team, just write a note and have it stamped in my office."

"Thank you, Minister."

Li Li was overjoyed. It was so hot that riding a bike was very tiring.

"Okay, let's all work hard."

Zhao Xiyan smiled and walked downstairs.

When he arrived at the cafeteria, it was already crowded.

"Xiao Zhao..."

Suddenly someone shouted, attracting a lot of people's attention.

Zhao Xiyan turned his head and saw that it was Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong. He couldn't help but laugh. What tricks were these two old guys planning to come up with?

"Xiao Zhao, come out with us. I want to tell you something."

The two men pulled him out of the cafeteria.

"No, why is it so mysterious?"

Zhao Xiyan took out two cigarettes and handed them over.

"Xiao Zhao, you are a cadre. If something happens in the factory, will you take care of it?" Yi Zhonghai said seriously.

"It depends on what the matter is." Zhao Xiyan spread his hands and said, "I'm only the Minister of Propaganda, not the Minister of Industry."

"Don't be so rude."

Liu Haizhong asked seriously, "If a cadre behaves improperly, will you intervene?"

"What the hell?"

Zhao Xiyan was surprised and said, "The cadres in this factory are behaving improperly. Why don't you go to the factory director? Why do you come to me?"

"We went there, but the factory director wasn't there. We came to look for you." Yi Zhonghai whispered, "Xiao Zhao, if you're scared, just pretend I didn't say anything..."

"Don't provoke me."

Zhao Xiyan laughed and scolded, "Tell me, who is behaving improperly?"

"Director Li, do you dare to intervene?" Liu Haizhong raised his eyebrows.

"Li Weimin?"

Zhao Xiyan frowned, "What did he do?"

"Tell me first whether you dare to intervene." Yi Zhonghai said seriously, "If you don't dare to intervene, it's useless to talk about it, and it will only bring you trouble..."

These two old guys.

Zhao Xiyan burst out laughing. Even though the factory director was not here, there were still several deputy factory directors. If the deputy factory director was not here, there were still the directors of various departments. They came to see him, most likely with bad intentions.

"Xiao Zhao, you've been scolding this and that in the yard for nothing...it turns out you're just a coward. Well, we misjudged him." Liu Haizhong said indignantly.

"Don't try that on me."

Zhao Xiyan shook his head and said, "Tell me, why did Director Li behave so improperly?"

"You care about this?"

Yi Zhonghai's eyes lit up.

"If you don't tell me, I'll go tell Director Li that you reported him..." Zhao Xiyan said with a sneer.

Damn, this beast.

The two men cursed inwardly, they knew that this beast would not behave like a human being.

"Are you going to tell it or not?" Zhao Xiyan asked patiently.

"Tell me about it..."

Yi Zhonghai came over and quietly told him what had happened.

It turned out that when the two came to eat, they found Li Weimin walking stealthily towards the warehouse behind the factory. They didn't know what was wrong with them, but they actually followed him.

As a result, Li Weimin was seen threatening Liu Lan, saying that if Liu Lan did not obey him, he would make Liu Lan unable to work in the factory. The two of them also agreed to meet in the warehouse at one o'clock.

Zhao Xiyan was about to speak when he saw a small car driving towards the administrative building. He couldn't help but exclaimed, "Hurry over there, the factory director is back..."

"Director?"

Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong were stunned at first, and then flew into a rage, "Zhao Xiyan, you are such a coward, I look down on you..."

"No, the factory director is back. You should go find him quickly. If he catches Director Li in the act, you will have done a great deed, right?" Zhao Xiyan said with a smile.

"you……"

The two of them were so angry that their faces turned blue. They turned and went into the cafeteria, not bothering to pay attention to him.

Zhao Xiyan didn't care and followed the two of them.

He looked up at Liu Lan who was getting her meal and shook his head.

Li Weimin has good taste, Liu Lan is actually very beautiful.

She has an oval face, willow-shaped eyebrows, and black hair tied into two braids. She is in her twenties, her face is full of collagen, and her whole body is full of youthfulness.

Zhao Xiyan calmly got his meal, found a seat in the cafeteria and started eating.

Liu Lan had been standing at the food window, her brows furrowed, looking a little absent-minded.

When it was almost one o'clock, she took off her apron, said a few words to the canteen director, and then went into the canteen.

Zhao Xiyan also stood up slowly and walked towards the door.

Liu Lan was still very alert. Before she reached the warehouse, she saw Zhao Xiyan following her.

"Minister Zhao, where are you going?" she asked with a blushing face.

"Someone is about to fall into the fire pit. Let me see if there is any hope of saving him." Zhao Xiyan joked.

"Into the fire pit?"

Liu Lan was slightly stunned, then took a step back in fear, "Minister Zhao, what are you talking about? I don't understand."

"Liu Lan, whether you understand or not, it doesn't matter." Zhao Xiyan shook his head and said, "As long as you tell me that you are here voluntarily... I will pretend that I have never been here today."

"you……"

Liu Lan's eyes instantly turned red, and then she lowered her head and began to wipe away her tears.

"Liu Lan, you only have one chance. If you don't want to take that step, I can help you..." Zhao Xiyan said seriously.

"You help me? What can you do to help me?" Liu Lan cried, "That beast Li Weimin said that if I don't obey her, she will accuse me of stealing... and fire me from the factory."

"Are you married?" Zhao Xiyan asked.

"If we hadn't been married, I would have fought him."

Liu Lan had tears as big as beans in her eyes, dripping down. "My husband doesn't have a job, and he gambles away money every day... He doesn't give me or my child money when he wins, and he beats people when he loses. If I don't have a job, my child and I will starve to death."

"Hey."

Zhao Xiyan sighed, "If you don't want to have anything to do with Li Weimin, I can help you... If you want to rely on him to move up, then just pretend I'm not here."

Liu Lan was stunned for a moment when she heard this.

She stared at Zhao Xiyan in a daze, her heart in turmoil.

Li Weimin's blackmailing her was also a way out for her.

It's not a problem if the children can have some meat to eat.

After all, she has given up on her man.

Seeing this, Zhao Xiyan shook his head, turned and left.

Everyone has their own choices. If Liu Lan chose Li Weimin, it might not be because she was born to like doing this kind of thing. Who isn't bent over by life?
