Siheyuan: Start with a big car

Huang Yanling still underestimated Yan Jiecheng.

Yan Jiecheng said coldly, "Huang Yanling, do you think I'm a fool? You're clearly dating Engineer Chen, so why haven't you taken any action yet?"

Yan Jiecheng's eyes were full of suspicion and anger. He stared at Huang Yanling closely, as if trying to see the answer from her face.

Huang Yanling was shocked, but she remained calm. She raised her chin slightly and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Engineer Chen and I are just ordinary friends. He is indeed very vigilant, and I haven't found the right opportunity yet."

Yan Jiecheng sneered, "Ordinary friends will see each other every day? Will they watch movies and go to the park together? Don't lie to me again. I gave you money, so you have to do things."

Huang Yanling was somewhat helpless. "I know, but this matter is really not that easy. Give me some more time, I will definitely find a way."

Yan Jiecheng frowned and said, "I've already given you a lot of time. If you keep dragging it out, don't blame me for being rude."

Huang Yanling looked at Yan Jiecheng's ferocious expression and felt a little scared.

There was fear in her eyes and her body trembled slightly involuntarily.

She knew very well that it was impossible for her to be with Engineer Chen. If she angered Yan Jiecheng, all Yan Jiecheng had to do was submit a letter of complaint to the neighborhood office and she would be sent to prison for a few years.

Thinking of this, Huang Yanling said quickly: "Yan Jiecheng, don't be angry. Don't worry. I will ask Engineer Chen to meet me in the grove behind the textile factory tomorrow. Then you can bring people to catch us, isn't that enough?"

There was a hint of flattery and eagerness in her tone, hoping to calm Yan Jiecheng's anger.

After hearing this, Yan Jiecheng felt much better.

His expression eased a little, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised. He pinched Huang Yanling's little face and said, "That's good enough. You'd better not play any tricks, otherwise you'll be in trouble." There was still a threat in his eyes, so Huang Yanling didn't dare to disobey.

Huang Yanling could only nod repeatedly, "I understand, I will do it."

The next day, Yan Jiefang dressed in neat work clothes and prepared to go to work in high spirits.

He was checking his tool kit and humming a little tune, looking forward to a new day's work.

Just as he was about to step out of the house, Yan Jiecheng called him urgently.

"Yan Jiefang, wait a moment. I'm going to take a day off today and come with me to do something."

Yan Jiecheng's tone was serious and his eyes revealed an unquestionable firmness, as if this matter was of vital importance.

Hearing this, Yan Jiefang frowned, his face full of reluctance.

He raised his chin slightly, folded his hands across his chest, and said, "Brother, our workshop has been very busy recently. If I ask for leave, it will definitely delay production, and I may not get the full attendance award. The full attendance award is very important to me, it is a reward I can only get after working hard for a month. If I don't get the full attendance award, I will lose a lot of income this month. Moreover, the workshop is now catching up with the progress, and everyone is very busy. If I ask for leave, it will definitely add burden to my colleagues."

Yan Jiecheng was unmoved. He stepped forward, patted Yan Jiefang on the shoulder, and said earnestly, "Jiefang, I know the attendance award is important, but today's matter really can't be delayed. If you lose the attendance award, you'll have another chance in the future. But if you don't do this today, it may affect your lifelong event."

After hearing this, Yan Jiefang was puzzled, his eyes wide open, and asked, "Brother, what is so important? Don't keep me in suspense."

Yan Jiecheng smiled mysteriously, deliberately teasing Yan Jiefang's appetite, and said, "Don't ask yet, just follow me and you'll know. I guarantee it will be good for you."

Although Yan Jiefang was still reluctant in his heart, seeing his brother's insistence, he could only sigh helplessly and said, "Okay, then I'll go and ask for leave. But brother, if this matter is not as important as you say, you have to compensate me for my perfect attendance bonus."

Yan Jiecheng smiled and nodded, saying, "Don't worry, if things go well, the benefits will be much greater than the attendance bonus."

Seeing Yan Jiecheng so insistent, although Yan Jiefang was reluctant, he also knew that once his brother made a decision, it would be difficult to change it.

He stood there with a frown on his face. After much thought, he decided to ask his co-worker Xiao Liu to help him ask for leave.

Yan Jiefang quickly walked to Xiao Liu's door and knocked gently a few times.

After a while, the door opened and Xiao Liu looked at him with a puzzled look. Yan Jiefang said hurriedly: "Xiao Liu, I'm sorry to bother you. Please help me take a day off today."

Xiao Liu was even more confused and asked, "What's wrong? Jiefang, what happened? The workshop has been so busy lately. If you ask for leave, everyone's workload will increase a lot."

Yan Jiefang sighed helplessly and explained, "I don't want to ask for leave, but my brother insisted that I go with him today to do something very important, saying that it can't be delayed. I really have no choice but to trouble you to ask for leave for me."

Xiao Liu looked embarrassed and said hesitantly, "This... is not easy to do. As you know, our workshop has a very strict leave application process. Besides, we are so busy right now, the leader may not approve it."

Yan Jiefang's face was filled with sorrow, and he begged bitterly, "Xiao Liu, please help me. I really have no other choice. Just tell your boss that I have an emergency at home and I have to take a day off. I will thank you when I come back."

Seeing Yan Jiefang's pitiful appearance, Xiao Liu softened his heart and said, "Okay, I'll try. But you have to come back as soon as possible, otherwise everyone will be under too much pressure."

Yan Jiefang nodded repeatedly and said gratefully: "Thank you, Xiao Liu. I will definitely come back as soon as possible."

After saying that, he turned and left, but his heart was filled with anxiety, wondering what mysterious thing his brother was going to take him to do.

What puzzled Yan Jiefang was that Yan Jiecheng actually took him to the textile factory. Yan Jiefang was puzzled, frowning, and asked as they walked: "Brother, why are you going to the textile factory? Are you looking for Xiaodang? I tell you, Xiaodang has been deceived by Engineer Chen, and he will never see me." Yan Jiefang's tone was a little frustrated and helpless, and it was obvious that he had no hope for his position in Xiaodang's heart.

Yan Jiecheng smiled mysteriously and said, "Don't worry, as long as you tell me that her engineer Chen is having an affair with a woman, she will definitely come out." There was a calculating light in Yan Jiecheng's eyes, as if everything was under his control.

Hearing this, Yan Jiefang was stunned. His eyes widened, his face full of disbelief, and he stammered, "Brother, you...what are you doing? Isn't this a lie? Besides, I can't slander Engineer Chen."

Yan Jiefang felt uneasy, as he felt that doing so was not ethical.

Yan Jiecheng disagreed and said, "How can this be a lie? We are helping Xiaodang to recognize the true face of Engineer Chen. Just think about it, if Xiaodang is kept in the dark by Engineer Chen, she will be the one who gets hurt in the future."

Although Yan Jiefang felt that his brother's words made sense, he was still a little hesitant, "But... is this really a good idea?"

Yan Jiecheng patted Yan Jiefang on the shoulder and said, "Don't say buts, just do it this way. When Xiaodang sees Engineer Chen's true face, she will know your goodness."

Yan Jiefang's heart was still full of contradictions. On the one hand, he felt that doing so was not very moral, but on the other hand, he longed for a chance to make Xiaodang change his mind.

But under his brother's persuasion, he had no choice but to agree.

Yan Jiefang came to the textile factory's guardhouse with mixed feelings.

His steps were heavy and his face was full of confusion.

Because he had come to see Xiaodang several times before, the security officers were already familiar with him and did not suspect him. One of the security officers went into the factory and told Xiaodang the news that Yan Jiefang had come.

Xiaodang was busy in the workshop and felt very strange when he heard the message from the security officer.

She frowned slightly, thinking to herself: "Why is Yan Jiefang here again? What does he want?" Xiaodang felt confused and a little uneasy. She didn't know why Yan Jiefang came this time, and whether he would bring something to trouble her.

But out of curiosity, Xiaodang decided to go and meet Yan Jiefang.

When Xiaodang arrived at the factory gate room, she saw Yan Jiecheng there at a glance. She suddenly felt a strong sense of uneasiness in her heart and immediately felt that something was wrong.

Her eyes became alert and she frowned slightly. She looked at Yan Jiefang and asked, "Yan Jiefang, why did you bring your brother here?" There was a hint of questioning in Xiaodang's tone. She was full of doubts about Yan Jiecheng's appearance.

Yan Jiefang was shocked to see Xiaodang was angry, and quickly explained: "Xiaodang, my brother saw your engineer Chen and a woman go into the grove next to him. He was afraid that you were deceived by Engineer Chen, so he came to tell you about it."

Yan Jiefang's words were urgent and flustered. As he spoke, he looked at Xiaodang's face nervously, fearing that she would get even angrier.

His hands trembled slightly unconsciously, and his eyes showed worry and anxiety. He hoped that Xiaodang could believe what he said.

However, in Xiaodang's opinion, Engineer Chen is a very simple man with an honest temperament. How could he be good with other women?

Xiao Dang's eyes showed firm trust. She raised her chin slightly, looked at Yan Jiefang and Yan Jiecheng, and said firmly: "I don't believe what you said. Engineer Chen is not that kind of person. He has always been honest and sincere to me.

You must have misunderstood or are deliberately making up lies to destroy our relationship."

"You were deceived by him. He is a liar."

Yan Jiefang was anxious, his face turned red and his eyes were full of anxiety.

He took a step forward, approaching Xiaodang, trying to make her believe his words.

"Xiao Dang, you must believe me. Engineer Chen is really not a good person. He looks simple and honest on the surface, but in fact, I don't know how many bad things he has done behind the scenes. You can't be fooled by his appearance."

Xiao Dang said angrily: "Yan Jiefang, you are too shameless. It is impossible for me and you to be together. Why did you frame Engineer Chen?"

Xiaodang's eyes were burning with anger, her chest heaving violently, and she was obviously very angry about Yan Jiefang's words.

"You just can't stand the fact that Engineer Chen and I are getting along, so you deliberately made up these lies to slander him. I'm telling you, I won't be fooled by you."

Faced with the stubborn Xiaodang, Yan Jiefang didn't know what to do for a moment.

His hands hung helplessly at his sides, his eyes full of helplessness and confusion.

He didn't know how to convince Xiao Dang to believe the true face of Engineer Chen. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but didn't know where to start.

At this time, Yan Jiecheng walked directly to the security officer, pointed to the grove next to him and said, "Comrade, I found someone messing around in the grove. I hope you can go check it out!"

Yan Jiecheng's tone was serious and firm, and his eyes revealed an unquestionable look.

The security officer's face changed slightly after hearing what Yan Jiecheng said. He hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "Okay, we'll go over and take a look right away."

Yan Jiecheng's action instantly broke the stalemate.

Xiaodang's face turned pale and her eyes were full of anxiety and worry.

She didn't know whether what Yan Jiecheng said was true. If Engineer Chen really was having an affair with another woman in the woods, what should she do?

The Security Department had great power in those days and they had jurisdiction over factory workers.

They acted quickly, and seven or eight security officers with serious faces rushed into the woods in orderly steps.

Their eyes were full of vigilance and determination, as if they wanted to expose all immoral behavior.

There was a tense atmosphere in the woods, and the leaves rustled in the breeze, as if they were also worried about what was about to happen.

The security officers searched carefully, not missing any corner.

Their footsteps echoed in the woods, breaking the original silence.

A moment later, Engineer Chen and Huang Yanling were brought out of the woods.

Engineer Chen's face was full of astonishment and confusion. He didn't understand why he was brought here.

Huang Yanling seemed a little flustered, with a hint of fear in her eyes.

The two of them stood in front of the security officers, looking somewhat at a loss. The air around them seemed to freeze, and everyone was waiting for the security officers' next move.

The security officer looked at Engineer Chen with a stern face and said, "You bad guy, you actually dared to sneak into the woods with a woman. Did you think we couldn't see it?"

The security officer's tone was stern and his eyes were full of reproach.

His eyes were fixed on Engineer Chen, as if he could see through him.

Engineer Chen realized that the security officer had misunderstood, and quickly explained: "Comrade, you misunderstood, I was just helping this female comrade check the injured part of her calf."

Engineer Chen showed an anxious look on his face. As he spoke, he pointed at Huang Yanling's calf.

"This female comrade had been injured before, and today she felt uncomfortable with the wound. I happened to be passing by here, so I helped her take a look. We really didn't do anything immoral."

Engineer Chen's explanation was sincere and urgent, and he hoped that the security officers would believe him.

However, the security officers did not easily believe his explanation.

Just kidding, going into the woods to check on the wound, this is such a lame excuse. (End of this chapter)
