Age: Passionate youth, starting from graduation assignment

Chapter 88 Conversation with You Qingxia

"Chief Xu, you...don't be joking."

Dominated by fear, You Qingxia didn't dare to raise her head at all, and said nervously, "You are here to guide the work on behalf of the factory, I... how dare I tell you lies."

"I have really explained the whole situation of the art troupe to you..."

Hearing what You Qingxia said, Xu Jichang stopped in his tracks, and asked a question coldly: "Oh? Then let me ask you, how did you get the position of head of the art troupe? Why did you immediately mention the head of the company's propaganda department when the niece of deputy director Lu came to the factory as the deputy head?"

Xu Jichang had seen You Qingxia's files. She had won many provincial and regional awards in the past. In her early twenties, she was promoted to the deputy head of the art troupe by virtue of her professional ability. After that, she remained in the position of deputy head for many years until the niece of the deputy director Lu came to the factory's propaganda department.

According to the archives, it was the niece of deputy director Lu who proposed a motion at the departmental meeting to mention You Qingxia as the head of the art troupe.

You Qingxia was stunned by Xu Jichang's question, her beautiful eyes were wide open and she hesitated to speak.

If you want to become a regular-level cadre like the head of the factory art troupe, you need someone to help you.

And she has no upper-level connections, and her natal family has no connections. She and Tianxiong's ex-husband have been divorced many years ago, so she can't talk about relying on the strength of her husband's family.

She used to be very distressed by the delay in promotion until the factory adjusted the leadership team of the Propaganda Department.

When she learned that the niece of deputy factory director Lu was about to serve as the first deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the cultural troupe, she immediately tried to get close to her.

Please eat, rush to pay when shopping, and teach dance to the other party's daughter for free.

You Qingxia tried every means, and finally won the favor of the niece of the deputy factory director Lu, and after she took office, she got her wish and was promoted to the head of the art troupe.

You Qingxia knew that her position was wrong, and now that Xu Jichang had exposed her, she felt at a loss.

"Mr. Xu, this is just a coincidence. I was promoted based on my professional ability. If you don't believe me, I... I can show you the award certificate at home..."

With a glimmer of hope, You Qingxia made a sophistry.

Xu Jichang interrupted her mercilessly.

"Stop pretending, it's useless."

"I can tell you the truth. The time until Deputy Director Lu's niece is dismissed is calculated in days."

"Maybe as soon as you go to work tomorrow morning, you will see the notice that she has been dismissed and investigated."

"Do you think she will keep the secret for you when she is investigated in the factory later?"

Xu Jichang's question was like a cannonball, completely breaking down You Qingxia's psychological defense.

You Qingxia was speechless, panic appeared on her classically beautiful face.

"I...I agree with everything you said, Section Chief Xu."

"I am willing to admit my mistake. I did get my current position by clinging to the niece of Deputy Factory Director Lu..."

"It's just... because I have won so many awards and honors for the factory, I beg Section Chief Xu, can you... raise your hand once, mention my past contributions to the factory, and give me a lighter punishment..."

When You Qingxia spoke, she stopped and looked at Xu Jichang with begging eyes.

She understood that her future fate depended on Xu Jichang's thought.

Xu Jichang shook his head: "Are you sure your problem is limited to this?"

what……

You Qingxia was stunned by Xu Jichang's question.

What did he mean by that? Could it be that he also knew about that matter?
Looking at You Qingxia who fell into silence, Xu Jichang shook his head,

"You Qingxia, I think you really don't cry when you see the coffin."

"How did your daughter join the art troupe before, I don't think I need to remind you?"

"Ah... Chief Xu, I, I..."

Hearing Xu Jichang's words, You Qingxia felt dizzy, her breathing suddenly became short of breath, and she let out a soft whimper uncontrollably.

After she became the head of the art troupe, she used her power to recruit her daughter into the art troupe privately when the factory clearly did not have a recruitment quota, and she was entitled to regular worker treatment.

When the official recruitment quota for the art troupe was released in the factory, she violated the procedure and removed the name of a girl who was going to be hired without permission, and directly made her daughter a regular.

This approach is absolutely risking the world's dissatisfaction.If Xu Jichang really pursued it strictly, let alone their jobs, the mother and daughter would definitely lose their jobs!
Xu Jichang looked at You Qingxia who was frightened out of his wits, and shook his head slightly: "Do you have anything to say? If not, the conversation is over."

"I will truthfully report the situation to the factory later, and you just wait to be dealt with."

Xu Jichang turned around and left after speaking.You Qingxia looked at his back, recovered from the dizziness just now, and quickly chased after him.

"Section Chief Xu, I...I have something to say, please listen to me, please..."

In the empty and quiet alleyway, You Qingxia reached out and hugged Xu Jichang's arm, crying.

"You let go first and then talk."

Xu Jichang frowned.

Is he someone who will be moved by such a small bargain?
Besides, this is outside, so if people see it, it will not end well.

"Hmm... Section Chief Xu, let me tell you all about the situation..."

You Qingxia touched her tears, and said in a crying voice,
"The thing is like this. In terms of professional level alone, I am ranked first in the county and even the whole region. Otherwise, I would not be able to win the second prize in the provincial dance competition."

"When I usually lead those girls to train, I also do my duty. It's not that I elevate myself. Except for me, none of the previous art troupe leaders in our factory can come to the practice room every night and lead the girls to train."

"But who told me that I came from an ordinary worker's family, and my parents have no power? No matter how hard I try, the department would rather send an outsider to be the team leader than promote me."

"I have no other choice, so I had no choice but to find the niece of Deputy Director Lu..."

"When I tried to please her with a smile on my face back then, I felt very humiliated in my heart. I also have self-respect... woo woo woo..."

"There is also my daughter's matter. In fact, with her professional level, she should have joined the art troupe during the previous recruitment. As a result, a deputy factory manager greeted our department and replaced my poor daughter."

"I had no choice but to make this decision..."

Hey.

Seeing You Qingxia lost control of her tear ducts, Xu Jichang didn't say a word for a while.

Indeed, in terms of You Qingxia's personal ability and her performance in the leadership position at the grassroots level, she is very outstanding.

After she became the head of the troupe, the art troupe of the unit won two provincial honors and a regional advanced collective within half a year, all of which can be found in the files.

It can only be said that this world is too complicated, and some things cannot be clearly understood with a ruler.

Of course, this does not mean that You Qingxia is innocent, at least she did get the head of the art troupe by improper means.

As for her saying that her daughter is poor, that's true.But isn't the girl who was squeezed out pitiful?Isn't that girl someone else's daughter?
Regarding all these, Xu Jichang has a steelyard in his heart, he will not just stand on the moral high ground and criticize You Qingxia, let alone sympathize with her blindly.

"Don't cry, it's useless to cry."

Xu Jichang put away his inner emotions and kept a face of nowhere,

"Since you feel that you have something to do, then you should think about how you should behave positively to strive for leniency."

Hearing the word leniency, You Qingxia held back her tears a little,

"Please rest assured, I will definitely explain it positively. I also ask you to help our mother and daughter..."

"The fate of our mother and daughter is now in your hands."

"Help you? Why?"

Xu Jichang glanced at You Qingxia and said.

On such an important matter, it is not easy to say a word of help, at least he needs to see You Qingxia's sincerity.

Because You Qingxia is not completely innocent, her experience is not enough for Xu Jichang to lend a helping hand after seeing it.

You Qingxia bowed her head and remained silent. As a 30-year-old woman, she could easily guess what Xu Jichang wanted now.

"I...I am willing to agree to all your requests, I just ask you...to help me keep my job."

"My daughter...she was recruited illegally. I know it's hard to keep her job...but I beg you to give her a try..."

You Qingxia lowered her head lightly, and said with an embarrassed expression.

At this moment, she felt like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, she had no other choice but to let Xu Jichang play with her.

"Be more specific."

Xu Jichang would not give You Qingxia a chance to be vague.

Of course, there are some things he won't say by himself, and if he says it himself, he is giving others a handle.

Alas, there is no escape after all.

You Qingxia looked at Xu Jichang, sighed secretly, bit her lips lightly, and finally made up her mind to speak: "As long as you are willing to help me, I will go to your house tomorrow night and spend the night with you..."

"That won't work."

Xu Jichang unexpectedly refused, "Who do you think I am?"

what?
You Qingxia never expected that Xu Jichang would give such an answer, and fell into a huge discrepancy.

It's not enough to stay with him for one night, what exactly does he want?
Feeling puzzled, You Qingxia began to rack her brains, trying to figure out what Xu Jichang was thinking.

Xu Jichang didn't remind her, just looked at her playfully, put his hands in his pockets and didn't speak.

Finally, after some thinking, You Qingxia came up with the answer: "Chief Xu, you... as long as you are willing to help me this time, in the future I... I will always be good to you."

At the end of You Qingxia's speech, she closed her eyes in despair.

Yes, she didn't want to do this either, but what choice did she have?
Looking at the helpless You Qingxia, Xu Jichang smiled inwardly: she is a wit.

But it's not enough just to be a good friend forever.

He needs something more.
