Men and women eating in the courtyard

The dishes have five flavors, and it is difficult to distinguish between sour, spicy, salty, sweet and bitter.

After three rounds of wine, it is impossible to distinguish between east, west, south, north and center.

The wine was drunk casually in the evening. There were only four of them, and Dou Yaozu was not an outsider.

Li Huaide may think that Zhou Miaomiao and Li Xuewu are unreliable, but he will never think that Dou Yaozu is unreliable.

In these days, people like Dou Yaozu really depend on Li Huaide to survive.

It is different from later generations. The collective economy can be independent or affiliated.

Economic independence means that you have to take care of everyone's food, drink, defecation and urination, and be responsible for your own profits and losses.

It is the same in business. You can do it if you have connections, but it's useless if you don't have connections.

In later generations, there are still a little chance of bidding, but it's not that fun these days.

Everyone knows that Dou Yaozu is a relative introduced by Li Xuewu, and everyone knows what he did before, but have you seen anyone say anything?

This kind of thing is completely decided by the factory leaders. Whoever is allowed to do it can do it. If something goes wrong, the unit will not be held responsible. The factory leaders have caused the trouble themselves and they have to bear it themselves.

So you can hear or have experienced in the 1970s and 1980s, there are many people like Li Huaide, who jumped down from the building with a bang.

Of course, they were not bungee jumping for fun, they were treated as bungee jumping for fun.

Trust crisis, taking money and running away, or the cashier and the driver ran away before the boss ran away.

It can be said that it was a wild period, with chaos and chaos. Once the hole was opened, all the monsters and demons came.

Now of course there is no problem. Dou Yaozu is a local household with a family. Li Huaide likes to cooperate with such people the most.

"Let's eat today."

Li Huaide drank a little too much, all because Li Xuewu has participated in the drinking parties recently.

At this moment, he can't speak so fluently, and he has to take a breath after saying a sentence.

But Lao Li's eyes are getting brighter and brighter as he drinks, like a yellow skin, and you can't tell whether he is drunk or not.

He patted Dou Yaozu's arm, pointed upstairs and said, "Let's go upstairs and play a few rounds. My hands have been itching for several days. I've been thinking about this for a long time."

Dou Yaozu saw him stretching his hands forward to gesture, which was a bit indecent.

Those who knew it was playing mahjong, but those who didn't thought it was playing steamed buns.

"Leader, I'm not being modest!"

Dou Yaozu smiled and said, "I can play mahjong, but I can't play it well."

"I have played many big and small card games since I was a child, but I have never won money once. Oh..."

"Ah? Then we have to sit together and play. I haven't won much money either."

Li Huaide suddenly felt that Dou Yaozu, the honest old black-faced man, looked friendly. This is not Dou, but a confidant.

"I like to play cards, but I always lose like Confucius."

"Ah? You..."

This time it was Dou Yaozu's turn to be surprised. He never expected that such a big leader would be a veteran who has been in the workplace for so many years.

"Are you kidding me? Leader, what I said is true-"

"It doesn't matter. I just want to chat with you." Li Xuewu smiled and said to him, "We are not playing for fun."

"Oh, okay, then I will play a few games with you." Dou Yaozu naturally listened to Li Xuewu's words. Seeing that he had said it, he didn't pretend anymore. He stood up and followed him out.

Li Xuewu pulled him a step slower, whispered a few words, and then went upstairs together.

Upstairs, Feng Juan had already tidied the room with the waiter and brewed tea.

The most important thing is that the mahjong table is also set up. It is a serious hardwood square table, which is most suitable for playing mahjong. The cards make a clanging sound when you knock on them.

"Director Feng, are you on duty tonight?"

"Yes, just call me Xiao Feng."

Feng Juan smiled and responded: "Please don't call me Director Feng. If you are polite to me, I should reflect on myself."

"Hahaha——!"

Li Huaide waved his hand and said: "Since you are not polite, then sit down and play a few games together. We are not strangers today."

He first found a seat and sat down, pointed at Li Xuewu and said to Feng Juan: "This, Deputy Director Li, it was he who asked you to come to the guesthouse in the first place, against all odds."

"Yes, thank you for the support and concern of the leader." Feng Juan smiled and nodded to Li Xuewu.

Li Huaide pointed at Dou Yaozu and said: "This, Lao Dou, the general manager of Dongfeng Construction Company, got to know our factory by building a garden for your guesthouse."

"Dou Yaozu, Director Feng, we have met before." Dou Yaozu was so polite to everyone. Even though Feng Juan looked young, he took the initiative to come over and shake hands with Li Huaide's introduction.

Feng Juan naturally knew who he belonged to, but she didn't dare to show off in front of Dou Yaozu. She took his hand and said politely, "Hello, Mr. Dou, please don't be so polite."

"Xiao Zhou, you are all the same age."

Li Huaide introduced everyone in the room, and then waved to Li Xuewu and the others, saying, "Sit down, sit down, standing up makes you dizzy."

Feng Juan glanced at Zhou Miaomiao, smiled and asked tentatively, "Leader, Deputy Head Zhou is here, how can I go to the table?"

She has been practicing here with Qin Huairu, and her tongue is better than before.

"Let's ask Deputy Head Zhou to play, I'll serve everyone in the card game."

"Sister Feng, just go if the leader asks you to go——"

Zhou Miaomiao smiled and pushed her to the mahjong table, and sat on the armrest of the chair next to Li Xuewu, with her hand on the back of the chair behind him, which made Dou Yaozu's eyelids jump.

"Have fun, leaders, I will serve the card game tonight."

What the hell is going on? ?

What else could it be? The light flickered, golden and bright, and it was unknown what was going on? This girl knows who gave her what she wanted!

Li Huaide's favor alone may not be so useful. There are so many people who flatter Lao Li, but no one has come to her to give her gold jewelry.

How come she came with the relationship introduced by Li Xuewu, bought her several sets of clothes, and asked a craftsman to get a full set of gold jewelry.

There is not a single silver one, pure gold, and she looks like a landlord's wife after wearing it.

But women at this time like this. Although the wealth is not exposed, it is only for one night, and it is comfortable to wear it in the house.

Tomorrow?

I have to go to work tomorrow, so I can't let others see it. When I want to wear it in the future, I can wear it secretly at home at night.

Which woman doesn't like gold, or which person doesn't like gold?

Dou Yaozu really dared to take action, and his move was a big move, which broke Zhou Miaomiao's weakness at once.

Now if he asked Zhou Miaomiao to blow the pillow wind and let Lao Li arrange a few more projects for him, Zhou Miaomiao would dare to find out Lao Li's past first, and then do his best to force Lao Li to agree.

Don't underestimate the ruthlessness of young girls, and don't overestimate their vision.

Of course, Zhou Miaomiao, who has experienced ups and downs, is considered a top person and very smart.

Dou Yaozu bought her so many valuable things, did you see her try to curry favor with the other party?

She knew very well who instructed all this, and she also knew what she should do at this time.

Let alone sitting on the armrest of Li Xuewu's chair, even sitting in Li Xuewu's arms or sitting on Li Xuewu's hands, Li Huaide would not care.

This is a sign of closeness.

The closer she is to Li Xuewu, the more Li Xuewu accepts Li Huaide's mistakes and shortcomings, and is fair and square.

Trust between people is not that complicated, a bunch of gold jewelry will do.

But sometimes, trust between people is so complicated, it's not enough to just be at work, there must be all kinds of temptations in private.

Zhou Miaomiao is now helping Li Huaide to test Li Xuewu's attitude, and vice versa, she is also helping Li Xuewu to test Li Huaide's attitude.

Li Xuewu can accept Zhou Miaomiao, play with her, or have a close relationship with her, which also means that he has become closer to Li Huaide in private.

Otherwise, why did Li Xuewu insist on coming to the guesthouse for dinner and playing mahjong at night when Li Xuewu called Lao Li today?

What Lao Li didn't expect and was very surprised was that Li Xuewu would arrange it so well.

And today, the superficial cause and effect - Dou Yaozu, performed particularly well.

In terms of relationship management, Li Huaide was given enough face. Just look at Zhou Miaomiao's smiling face and laughter to know that if Zhou Miaomiao is satisfied, Lao Li will work less and be satisfied.

In terms of engineering work, Dou Yaozu can be said to be considerate and responsible, and he never causes trouble for the Red Star Factory in engineering.

For the completed projects, Li Huaide privately arranged for Li Haiyang to bring people to check, for fear that Li Xuewu's people would not do things.

Li Haiyang was sandwiched between the two, so he naturally did not dare to be vague. He took the sledgehammer and swung it hard on the wall. Several cement stones collapsed and some slag fell off, but the wall was fine.

In fact, he also brought experts from the engineering department, who verified that this thing was more professional than him.

But why did he have to pretend to know how to swing the sledgehammer when he didn't know it?

It must be said that Li Haiyang was smart. When he swung the hammer, the right and wrong were clear, so that he didn't feel uncomfortable being caught in the middle.

Now, after these few hammers from him, the quality of Dongfeng Construction's project is completely stable, and no one doubts whether the small collective engineering unit from outside can be competent for the project.

It is also because Dou Yaozu is a real person, and he is really open in his words and deeds, so this game at night gave Li Xuewu a clear attitude.

Of course, it also gave Dou Yaozu a clear attitude. As long as the project is as high-standard and strict as before, and the construction progress is guaranteed, no one can replace Dongfeng Construction with him.

——

Say Dou Yaozu's performance is outstanding?

Now Dou Yaozu is dying——!

He said that he is not good at playing cards and has never won once. Of course, he is modest and polite to Li Huaide. What he said is vague.

But he never expected that Director Li said the truth!

This card is really stinky!

He also didn't expect that such a big leader, who is in charge of such a big unit, would actually tell the truth!

How to say it, it's not that Director Li had bad luck today, nor is it that the feng shui of the place where he sat was bad, and it has nothing to do with drinking.

Purely, seriously, it's just that Director Li's hands are so stinky, he can't play cards well, and he doesn't have the brains for this card!

If it were an ordinary person, it would be fine if he didn't have the talent to play mahjong, but Director Li is a bad person and likes the regret and happiness of clicking.

It's only a few rounds, and Director Li, who lost money, is happy and happy. He is having a lot of fun.

On the other side, Dou Yaozu, who was thinking about clicking but couldn't catch up with Director Li's hands, was sweating on his forehead.

Who the hell am I!

Where the hell am I!

Am I crazy? Why the hell did I win money?

What should I do with the money I won?

"Quickly, get Mr. Dou a towel to wipe it with."

Li Huaide was also amused. The more he saw Dou Yaozu panicking, the happier he became.

Especially because the other party had to play tricks and win money, he felt that Lao Dou was a real, approachable and interesting person.

"Hey! I'm going to get you a towel right now, wait a minute -"

Zhou Miaomiao stood up from the chair beside Li Xuewu and went to the bathroom with a smile.

Dou Yaozu said awkwardly: "No need, no need, Leader Zhou, I... oh, I'm so embarrassed, I'm really embarrassed."

"It's okay, it's like this even after drinking."

Li Huaide said with a smile: "When I look at the mahjong tiles now, all the tiles are ghosted, but playing like this is more exciting and interesting."

When Feng Juan heard what he said, she couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth. She glanced at Li Xuewu secretly and thought, how did you hold back your smile?

It’s so ghostly. Can these two lines be regarded as nine lines and be played out?

Li Xuewu also won money, but not as much as Dou Yaozu. He was not interested in playing cards, but he could calculate in his mind and use his hands well.

Feng Juan's poker skills are much worse. She is the kind who can play but cannot calculate.

Zhou Miaomiao washed the hot towel from the bathroom and wiped the sweat from his forehead without Dou Yaozu taking care of it. This action made Lao Dou sweat more and more, and he was probably scared.

Tonight at the dinner table, Li Huaide drank empty-handedly, Zhou Miaomiao drank lightly, Li Xuewu drank it or not, but he drank it sincerely.

So he drank more than Li Huaide and others. Just now Li Huaide said that he was seeing ghost images while watching the cards, and he was so tired of reading the cards.

But now all the alcohol was coming out along with the sweat, and my head was so clear, as if I had taken an elixir.

"This sweat is not in vain, Mr. Dou."

Li Xuewu made Zhang Er cake and asked Feng Juan to eat it. He smiled and reminded Dou Yaozu, who was sitting opposite, and said: "If you have any good things to do, think of our deputy commander Zhou, this is one of our own."

"That is, that is, I will definitely, definitely" Dou Yaozu thanked Zhou Miaomiao with a smile, and then he only dared to look at the cards, but did not dare to look at Zhou Miaomiao.

Zhou Miaomiao said jokingly: "Nothing good to me is as important as your own words."

"Hey, if you had told me earlier, wouldn't I have told you that you are one of my own?"

Who could compare to Li Xuewu's mouth? Zhou Miaomiao was so amused that she laughed and sat next to Li Xuewu again, gossiping.

Feng Juan, who was sitting on the other side of her, was observing Zhou Miaomiao out of the corner of her eye.

She didn't know much about the relationship between Li Xuewu and Zhou Miaomiao, but she knew very well about the relationship between Zhou Miaomiao and Li Huaide.

How many times in the early morning have I watched her come out of Director Li's room.

Liu Lan, who was hanging in the back, was the one who bumped into her when he came to make trouble.

Now seeing her wearing gold and silver and sitting next to Li Xuewu with a sweet smile, those who didn't know it thought she was following Li Xuewu.

You know, Feng Juan wouldn't think so. What is Li Xuewu's identity and figure, so that he can fall in love with such shabby shoes?

Everyone knew that Zhou Miaomiao had a partner, but they just didn't know what Zhou Miaomiao's partner wanted from her.

Of course she is pretty and good-looking, but this big girl is doing girly things, so she doesn’t think this bowl of rice is too bad, right?

Feng Juan is not a fool. Just look at who is in today's round and you will know what is going on.

She was not angry about this. The gold pieces did dazzle her eyes, but they were too dazzling.

To be honest, Zhou Miaomiao was very happy just to say that she was one of his own, but Li Xuewu never said that she was one of his own, let alone that he ordered her to come to the guest house. This is the real one of his own.

Now, people like Zhou Miaomiao have even used the word "self" in a dirty way. She is also panicking in her heart, and no evil guest dares to offend the other party.

——

The card game lasted until past twelve o'clock. Zhou Miaomiao played a few times and Feng Juan also played wrong cards several times.

When Feng Juan played the wrong card for the third time, Li Huaide knew it was time to break up the game, so he finished the last game with a smile and lit some water to pay them.

Dou Yaozu accepted the money awkwardly, feeling very embarrassed, but Li Huaide was happy with it.

"Take it, you must hold it. The leader is the most innocent. One is one, two is two." Li Xuewu put the money Li Huaide had paid into his pocket and said with a smile: "We are off work, we can win by playing cards." Of course you have to keep the money.”

"That's right, hurry up, or I won't play with you next time!"

Li Huaide smiled and waved his hand and said, "I had a lot of fun tonight. When you have time in the future, you are welcome to come to the factory to play more."

These words were the finishing touch and gave Dou Yaozu the purpose of coming tonight.

Dou Yaozu held his hand gratefully and said a few polite words before following Li Xuewu and the others out.

Zhou Miaomiao followed him to the door and was stopped by Li Huaide, who said he had something to talk about.

Li Xuewu didn't even look back, just pretended not to hear, went down one floor and reached the third floor.

He couldn't go back tonight, so he had to stay here. Li Huaide had already told this place and arranged a room for him.

Feng Juan first arranged for the waiter to send Dou Yaozu back to his room, and then she sent Li Xuewu to his room, chatting on the way.

When he was almost at the door, Li Xuewu turned around and asked with a smile: "What's going on? Do you have something to say? Are you still worried that I can't find a room?"

"Are you afraid that you can't find a room?"

Feng Juan laughed and said, "I'm worried if I don't see you go into the room. You drink so much and play so late. What if you sleep in the corridor?"

"Hehe——"

Li Xuewu chuckled and walked to the door of the room, motioned to the door and said, "Open it."

Feng Juan glanced at him, walked forward to open the door of the room, but was suddenly pushed by Li Xuewu and walked directly into the door.

She was really scared. After standing up with the door, she looked at Li Xuewu in astonishment, at a loss.

Li Xuewu stood at the door, leaning back slightly, looking at the stairs at the other end of the corridor, and said in a confused voice, "You can stay here tonight."

Feng Juan reacted after being frightened, but she widened her eyes in surprise and asked in a low voice, "Someone is following behind? Who is it?"

Li Xuewu didn't answer her, took a step inside, closed the door with his hand, and then stood at the door and stopped moving.

Feng Juan was also curious. She leaned sideways and put her ear against the door. After a while, she heard the clacking sound of shoes on the floor tiles.

She suddenly frowned. She didn't expect someone to follow her. Who is so hateful!

Li Xuewu listened, grabbed her arm, pointed to the room, and pressed her on the chair, and at the same time signaled her to take off her coat.

Feng Juan frowned and wanted to refuse, but saw Li Xuewu pointed to the door with his index finger seriously, and signaled her to do it quickly with his eyes.

She had no choice but to take off her blue jacket.

Before she could think about how to put it away, Li Xuewu took it and threw it directly on the ground.

"You--!"

"Shh--!"

Li Xuewu frowned and nodded at her, squinting his eyes to signal her to be quiet.

It was at this time that there was a knock at the door.

Dongdong——

"Deputy Director Li, have you rested?"

"Ah——Who? I'll be right there!"

Li Xuewu responded in a pretentious manner, then curled his lips at Feng Juan, reached out and rubbed her hair, and then went to the door.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Zhou Miaomiao trying to squeeze in with a plate of fruit, smiling and saying, "The leader asked me to bring it to you... Hey!"

Li Xuewu certainly wouldn't force the door, and he moved aside with an embarrassed look, revealing Feng Juan, who was sitting on a chair wearing a blue shirt with messy hair and a surprised look on her face. The coat she had just worn upstairs was scattered on the ground.

"Ah, I'm really sorry, I didn't expect...that..."

Zhou Miaomiao said sorry, as if she was also a little embarrassed.

"Xiao Feng said he had work to report to me." Li Xuewu's ability to lie with his eyes open was the best in the entire steel rolling mill. He opened the door, walked into the house naturally, picked up the clothes on the ground, hung them on the cabinet, and said, "Come in and sit down."

"No, no, it's just that the leader asked me to bring this to you. I'm so sorry."

Zhou Miaomiao walked into the house awkwardly, put the fruit plate on the table under Feng Juan's strange eyes, and left without waiting for Li Xuewu to be polite, and closed the door when he left.

Feng Juan walked to the door angrily and listened to it. It seemed that she heard the other party say: What are you so proud of? You are just the same as me...

"She...!"

"Do you want to eat grapes?"

Li Xuewu didn't wait for her to complain angrily, but picked up the grapes in the fruit plate and asked her.

Feng Juan widened her eyes and asked, "Can't you see what she means?"

"She is... I..."

"If I can't see it, you don't need to help me and cover it up."

Li Xuewu looked at the grapes in his hand and threw them into the fruit plate.

"Okay, sit here for a while, take the fruit plate down, and share it with your comrades."

"You still care about food?"

Feng Juan said indignantly: "What does she mean? She is not a good person, there are no good people in this world, we have to be like her?"

"Hey, hey, what are you in a hurry for?"

Li Xuewu looked at her and said: "Just now I wanted to praise you for your good performance tonight, why can't you bear this little loss?"

"Humph!"

Feng Juan picked up her clothes and put them on, sat on the chair angrily, and said: "I feel wronged, why should she doubt me-"

"Do you need to find a reason to doubt this thing? If she thinks it is-"

Li Xuewu sat on the bed, looked at her and said: "If she wants to doubt you, just let her doubt you, and give her evidence to doubt."

"When you need it, all her doubts will become attacks on you. means, and you, are you afraid of such means? "

He leaned against the head of the bed, his legs on the edge of the bed, and chuckled and said: "These will become your means of counterattack and attacking her at any time."

"I... I am just the director of a guesthouse, and a deputy director!"

Feng Juan said angrily: "Do I need to be like this? Do I have to rely on you and follow you to get this position, so that I can feel at ease?"

"Well, it's really aggrieved, but do you need to care?"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and said: "If you don't do well, there will still be people who say you, and if you do well, there will always be people who find excuses for you."

"So, instead of letting them make up stories, it's better to direct and act by yourself. At least you know who the male lead is, right?"

"Tsk-"

Feng Juan was suddenly amused by his words, and looked at him speechlessly and asked: "So those rumors circulating in the factory are all made up by you!"

"I'm telling you, the more I hear it, the more something is wrong!"

She pouted, as if she had been deceived, and looked at Li Xuewu and said funnyly: "You have a nose and an eye. It seems like someone really saw you doing something with so-and-so."

"What did you say about me? Who did you follow?"

Li Xuewu lay on the pillow and said with a smile: "I have made so many rumors about myself that I can't tell who is who for a while."

"You're still saying, how can anyone throw dirty water on themselves, just like today -"

Feng Juan pursed her lips and glanced at him, saying, "If I hadn't caught up and found out who you are, what would I have thought of standing outside the door!"

"hehe--"

Li Xuewu smiled and said: "I told you that the world is dangerous and you can't help yourself. Will you think that I am making a fuss and asking for trouble?"

Feng Juan shook her head slightly and said, "I used to think so, but after what happened just now, I understand what you mean."

"Well, as long as you understand, it's all for work."

Li Xuewu squinted his eyes as if he was about to fall asleep, and said: "If you are upright, you are not afraid of slanting shadows. Do your work well, do it steadily, ignore all details, integrate and adapt them, and make it easier to do things."

"I understand your difficulties."

Feng Juan looked at Li Xuewu with admiration, thinking that for the sake of working in the factory and coordinating relationships, he would not hesitate to throw dirty water on herself...

"I heard about your affairs with Qin Suo and Zhang Suo before, but I thought it was vague."

She looked at Li Xuewu and said seriously: "Now I know that you are a good person, an upright and innocent person."

"Haha - draw conclusions so early?"

Li Xuewu said with a smile: "What if you guess wrong and I am a gangster?"

"Just because you know how to play rogue?"

Feng Juan pursed her lips and smiled: "No matter how many people want to pounce on you, they don't have time."

She stood up and said, "Is it time? Then I won't disturb your rest."

"Well, the fruit plate will be taken away. I won't eat anything at night, and I won't eat anything sweet."

Li Xuewu nodded and said: "Don't pay attention to what happened tonight. Even if there are rumors, there is no need to explain, just let it go."

"I see, I took advantage of you," Feng Juan said with a blush, "Maybe after tonight, everyone will know that I have a background and a backer, and no one will dare to bully me."

"These are all empty and of no use."

Li Xuewu stood up and urged: "Do your job well, otherwise there will be no chance of progress."

"I understand, I must do my job well." Feng Juan walked to the door and bowed and said, "Thank you for arranging for me to come to the guest house."

"Okay, let's go, you're so polite at night"

Li Xuewu walked her to the door and said with a smile: "If you are too polite, I will keep you."

"Giggle--you are not this person!"

Feng Juan covered her mouth and smiled and said, "Goodbye, Deputy Director Li, please have a good rest."

Li Xuewu stood at the door and watched her leave, then turned around and closed the door.

Lao Li was so bad that he dared to let Zhou Miaomiao come to spy on the military situation. This was not looking for bad luck.

I don't want to be acquainted with him, so it's better to hide this kind of affair behind someone else's back. Although it won't lead to dismissal from office, it will be a bit embarrassing in terms of face.

Especially Zhou Miaomiao, this is not an honest person. Li Xuewu asked Dou Yaozu to test her, but he didn't expect that she would really dare to take it.

Come on, Lao Li, just wait for the bad luck.

What was the name of the deputy director who was dragged out of the car by Li Xuewu after taking Dou Yaozu's things?

hehe--

Of course, the Fengyue incident is not a serious problem at this time, but if the Fengyue incident involves the export of profits, it is not a trivial matter.

This time it was just a test, and of course it would not be Dou Yaozu himself who would take action next time.

Even if it is investigated in the future, Dou Yaozu's behavior today is nothing. Zhou Miaomiao is single now. If it is said that Dou Yaozu is pursuing Zhou Miaomiao, it will be over.

After Li Xuewu saw off Feng Juan, the situation was calm and he slept soundly. The sound of gunfire upstairs was crackling for a while...

Lao Li is really exhausted today.

——

In the morning, while having breakfast in the restaurant, Zhou Miaomiao saw him alone and sat across from him.

"Deputy Director Li, morning—!"

"Well, you got up so early?"

Li Xuewu glanced at Zhou Miaomiao opposite him and asked, "Are you getting up early to exercise too?"

"I'm used to it. I saw you jogging along the lake." Zhou Miaomiao calmly ate breakfast and said, "Do you usually exercise?"

"Well, there is a lake in front of my house. I take my daughter for a walk every morning."

Li Xuewu was chatting casually, not paying attention to the way she looked at him.

Zhou Miaomiao was bold. Seeing that there was no one in the restaurant at the moment, she asked in a low voice: "You and Feng Juan...?"

"Huh? Haha——"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows, looked at her with a chuckle and asked, "Why didn't I know when you took on the job of the Investigation Department?"

"You think I am willing-?"

Zhou Miaomiao lowered her eyelids, sighed helplessly and said, "How many of me dare to act like a monkey in front of you? I really..."

"So?" Li Xuewu lowered his head and continued to eat breakfast, and asked, "What do you think I should do? Shouldn't I cooperate with you in acting?"

"I know, I know you won't care about these little tricks of mine."

Zhou Miaomiao laughed, sat up straight and said: "I also know that there is nothing between you and Feng Juan. She is obviously not as good as you in acting. Her lips are dry, and she is pretending to have just made love-"

Li Xuewu pulled the corner of his mouth, looked at her and said: "Act the whole set, don't let it go halfway, be careful not to draw water in a bamboo basket."

"I'm not afraid of drawing water in a bamboo basket, I'm just afraid that you won't let me draw this bucket of water."

Zhou Miaomiao looked at Li Xuewu and said: "Without your words, I will always feel uneasy. What I said to you on the boat last time was what I really thought. Don't disbelieve me."

"You walk your own way, I never said anything to you." Li Xuewu looked at her and reminded: "Any game has rules. You can take away what you can do with your ability. No one cares about you. "

"But you should also be prepared to lose money. Don't scold this, criticize that, or smash the table. Be careful not to hurt yourself."

He finished his meal, put his chopsticks aside, and continued: "Whoever you are with is all your own will. No one forces you, and no one wants to harm you. You can decide the degree yourself."

Li Xuewu stood up, tapped the table lightly with his fingers, and said: "I believe you are a smart girl, and this matter will not be difficult for you."

Looking at Li Xuewu's leaving figure, Zhou Miaomiao sighed deeply. The meal was half-cooked, which was really boring--

Want to bet on both sides, but where can such a good thing be found? Li Xuewu did not accept her surrender, but warned her to abide by her duties.

What is duty?

It's funny to say that you have to abide by your duties when you are a lover of others, and you can't smash the pot if you don't eat well.

What's the matter? You can only smash this pot!

Zhou Miaomiao had already seen that Li Huaide was on guard against Li Xuewu, and Li Xuewu was not completely loyal to Li Huaide.

Although the two people working together would not be so scheming, they were also wary and defensive of each other, adding a bit of protection and dependence.

Li Xuewu needed Li Huaide's support and help, and he needed Li Huaide to sit in this position and take on all the things he couldn't take on.

And Li Huaide needed his talent, needed him to be young and strong to take the lead, do the work in the factory well, and give him more energy and time.

The two sides used each other and clamped each other. You had a lock, I had a lock, and both wanted to stand in a more advantageous position and take down the other party.

So when adding a lock, you had to find the key to unlock the other party's lock. It was so complicated.

Now Zhou Miaomiao was locked in the middle by them, unable to move left or right, and very uncomfortable.

She wanted to tell Li Huaide about Li Xuewu's hypocrisy and the actual situation, but what could Li Huaide do if he knew?

Could he fire Li Xuewu?

But Li Xuewu really had a way to fire her, or even kill her.

So, she followed Li Huaide's request and saw Li Xuewu and Feng Juan entering the house when she followed Li Xuewu to deliver the fruit plate.

But when she walked to the corridor, she deliberately increased her footsteps to remind the room.

But unexpectedly, Li Xuewu really cooperated with her to play such a play, giving her an excuse and content to report after going upstairs.

But in the second half of the night, Zhou Miaomiao couldn't sleep at all. The more she thought about it, the more wrong it was. Only then did she realize that she almost fell into a trap.

Fortunately, there was no problem with what she said to Li Huaide. When she got up in the morning, she saw Li Xuewu exercising downstairs, so she followed him down.

It was impossible to find Li Xuewu to show loyalty. Li Xuewu would not use women as intelligence stealing tools like in the 1920s and 1930s, and would not be involved in her karma. She just wanted Li Xuewu to say a word.

It's very simple. When you want to abolish Li Huaide, you must give her a way out.

She firmly believed that Li Xuewu was the only one who could get rid of Li Huaide. No one in the factory had the courage and ability of Li Xuewu, and no one had the ability to rule the country after getting rid of Li Huaide.

The longer she spent with Li Huaide, the more she could feel the dependence and helplessness of Lao Li on Li Xuewu.

When the Red Star Factory had little business, Li Huaide took the position of the director, and he should have focused on understanding and learning, and mastering production management.

But he spent more energy on personnel management and personal enjoyment.

And he thought that Li Xuewu was young and inexperienced, and there was no possibility of hindering him.

So more burdens were placed on Li Xuewu, which also caused the current situation of being unable to get rid of the tail, and put himself in an embarrassing situation.

Even if Li Huaide wanted to take over the business and work of the factory now, it was too late. Even the office and enterprise management structure were done by Li Xuewu and his people. How could he handle all the chores?

The rules were set by Li Xuewu, and even he had to follow Li Xuewu's rules. Who was in charge of the factory and who had the final say?

Being with Li Huaide, she finally saw how powerful Li Xuewu was. He was not someone that ordinary people could control.

If she wanted to describe him as shrewd, that word was definitely wrong and not enough to describe Li Xuewu.

So she was getting more and more scared, especially when she was with Li Huaide. She was afraid that one day Li Xuewu would suddenly rush in with people, grab them and put handcuffs on them, and say to them: "Your story has been exposed, come with us!"

She had no objection to killing Li Huaide, as long as she was not taken with him.

Another thing was whether she could not take back the money she had worked so hard to earn. This was also what she was worried about.

Feng Juan stood at the kitchen door and had seen Zhou Miaomiao a long time ago. She really wanted to laugh at her decadent appearance.

This kind of stuff also wanted to hook up with Li Xuewu?

Another thing, why did she think she could get a promise from Li Xuewu? ——

On Saturday, Li Xuewu tried his best to handle the work on hand.

In particular, he arranged for the finance, security, audit and other departments in the factory to cooperate with the city to complete the clearance and sorting of industrial integration.

He also had to coordinate the cadre assessment and placement work with the Personnel Department, so that they would be equally treated. This batch of cadres should be used in a scattered manner to avoid them forming groups and not being able to integrate into the Red Star Factory.

Finally, it was his own work. He had to do what he could do before the business trip and arrange what he couldn't do to others.

In addition to listening to his and Dou Yaozu's reports last night, Li Huaide also said something.

Liao Province invited Red Star Factory to visit Fengcheng.

Hu Ke, deputy director of the Beijing Office, personally invited on behalf of the leaders in charge of industry in Liao Province.

Li Huaide had already agreed to leave on Sunday night and arrive in Fengcheng on Monday morning.

After staying in Fengcheng for two or three days, he went directly to Gangcheng for research with the industrial leaders of Liao Province.

This time it is not a repayment of the last debt, it is a way for them to show their hospitality.

The Red Star Factory has invested so much that even the other party feels that it is inappropriate not to show some appreciation.

So, what should they show?
