Chapter 429 Xu Damao panics

After leaving the hospital, Chen Yu said to Qin Jingru: "Qin Jingru, don't do this anymore. I really don't have that kind of feelings for you. You're only putting more pressure on me." Qin Jingru said disapprovingly: "Chen Yu, I know you may not have feelings for me right now, but I believe that as long as I persist, you will see my sincerity."

Seeing Qin Jingru was so stubborn, Chen Yu said nothing more and turned away. Qin Jingru looked at Chen Yu's back and couldn't stop crying, but she gritted her teeth and vowed to make Chen Yu fall in love with her.

In the days that followed, Qin Jingru continued to frequently appear beside Chen Yu. Although Chen Yu was still indifferent to her, she never gave up. However, her behavior attracted the attention of another person in the factory - Chen Yu's childhood sweetheart Lin Xiao.

When Lin Xiao learned that Qin Jingru was pursuing Chen Yu, she became jealous. She found Qin Jingru and warned her to stay away from Chen Yu. Qin Jingru was not to be outdone and responded, "My liking for Chen Yu is my business, you have no right to interfere."

The tension between the two women is getting stronger and stronger, and an emotional battle centered on Chen Yu is quietly unfolding in the factory. Chen Yu is caught in the middle, feeling very distressed and helpless. He doesn't know how to get rid of this predicament and restore peace to his life.

That day, Xu Damao wore a brand new Zhongshan suit, his hair was combed sleekly, and he walked with a very proud look, just like a butterfly flaunting itself in the factory. His proud look attracted many of his colleagues to look at him sideways, and they all speculated privately that he had encountered some good thing.

Yi Zhonghai was a warm-hearted man in the factory, and he was curious about things. Seeing Xu Damao's abnormal behavior, his curiosity was immediately aroused. He walked a few steps quickly, caught up with Xu Damao, patted him on the shoulder, and asked with a smile: "Damo, what's wrong with you today? You look so happy, is there something good? Tell me quickly."

Xu Damao stopped walking and turned to look at Yi Zhonghai. His smile became even brighter. He deliberately kept the secret and said, "Oh, Master Yi, you have a really sharp eye. However, this matter is not certain yet. I will talk to you about it when it is done."

Yi Zhonghai felt even more itchy when he heard this. He pulled Xu Damao's arm and walked a few steps to a place with fewer people nearby. He lowered his voice and said, "Hey, kid, you're still keeping me in suspense. We're old acquaintances in the factory, so just tell me. I promise not to tell anyone."

Xu Damao was so proud of Yi Zhonghai's eagerness that he cleared his throat and said slowly, "Master Yi, let me tell you something. I recently met a big leader in the city. He really likes me and is thinking of arranging a better job for me. If it works out, my position in this factory will be different in the future."

When Yi Zhonghai heard this, his eyes widened slightly. He was a little skeptical in his heart, but he agreed, "Oh, that's great, Damao, you are really lucky. But you have to hurry up and make it happen, don't be too happy for nothing."

Xu Damao raised his head confidently and said, "Of course, I have an idea about it. Just wait and see, it won't be long before I, Xu Damao, will be very successful." After saying that, he walked away with a swagger, leaving Yi Zhonghai standing there, looking at his back, thoughtfully, still wondering whether what Xu Damao said was reliable or not.

Xu Damao's words made Yi Zhonghai feel suspicious. He decided to observe Xu Damao secretly to see if he was bragging.

In the next few days, Xu Damao still came to the factory dressed up beautifully every day, boasting to everyone about his upcoming promotion. He also asked for leave from time to time for various reasons, and his whereabouts were very mysterious.

Yi Zhonghai felt that something was fishy, ​​so he found an opportunity to follow Xu Damao. He found that Xu Damao went to a large compound in the city several times, and stayed there for several hours each time. This made Yi Zhonghai even more suspicious, and he wondered if Xu Damao really had a connection with some big shot?

One day, Xu Damao asked for leave again, and Yi Zhonghai followed him again. This time, he saw Xu Damao coming out of the compound with a thick envelope in his hand and a smug smile on his face. Yi Zhonghai couldn't help but stop Xu Damao and asked, "Damo, what are you holding in your hand? Is it related to the good thing you said?"

Xu Damao was startled by Yi Zhonghai. He hurriedly hid the envelope behind him and stammered, "Nothing... nothing, just some information given by a friend. Master Yi, why are you here?"

Yi Zhonghai looked at Xu Damao's panic and was more certain that he had a problem, so he said seriously: "Da Mao, we are all from the factory. If you do something you shouldn't do, don't blame me for exposing you in the factory."

When Xu Damao heard this, his face turned pale. He knew that his lie might be exposed. It turned out that the envelope contained bribes he gave to others in order to seek a position, and it was not a document given to him by the leader to show his appreciation.

Xu Damao begged Yi Zhonghai immediately, "Master Yi, please don't tell anyone. I was just confused for a moment and was blinded by greed. I promise I will never do it again. Please forgive me this time."

Yi Zhonghai looked at Xu Damao's pitiful appearance and hesitated, but he also knew that this behavior was wrong. After some ideological struggle, he finally decided to report the matter to the factory leaders and let them deal with Xu Damao's problem.

After the factory leaders learned about this, they took it very seriously and immediately launched an investigation into Xu Damao. Xu Damao received the due punishment for his bribery and not only lost his chance of promotion, but was also given a serious disciplinary record by the factory. After this incident, Yi Zhonghai also won a reputation for integrity in the factory, and everyone respected him even more.

After Xu Damao was punished, his status in the factory plummeted. Those who used to follow him and flatter him all dispersed and started to avoid him. This made Xu Damao's heart full of resentment, especially towards Yi Zhonghai. He felt that it was because of Yi Zhonghai's meddling that he ended up in this situation.

Therefore, Xu Damao began to look for opportunities to retaliate against Yi Zhonghai. He knew that Yi Zhonghai had been in charge of some important work arrangements in the factory, so he wanted to start from this aspect and create trouble for him.
