Just as Xiang Wan arrived at the entrance of the newspaper office, she saw Chu Ying rushing out.
“Perfect timing, I was just about to find you! I’ve got some major news!” Excitedly, Chu Ying grabbed Xiang Wan’s hand.
“News? Tell me!” Xiang Wan looked at Chu Ying with delight. She hadn’t expected things to go so smoothly on this end as well. It seemed like she should buy a lottery ticket today – she was bound to win!
“This afternoon, Huo Song is hosting a banquet for the factory workers. I assume it’s related to his campaign for the position of factory director. This is a good opportunity for us!” Chu Ying exclaimed.
“I thought about it. To deal with that scoundrel, we should let him have a taste of falling from the clouds! Wouldn’t it be more satisfying if we destroy his path to promotion?!” As she spoke, Chu Ying’s voice grew softer, but her excitement became more evident.
Glancing at the excited Chu Ying, Xiang Wan caught sight of a group of people approaching from not too far away. She cryptically said, “Let’s go, I’ll show you the ropes, little sister.”
At the Huo residence.
A group of people dressed in peasant outfits raised their glasses in celebration around a table.
“Cough, cough. Welcome everyone here today. I’m very happy to work alongside you all. Fate brought us together. Come, cheers to our fate!” Huo Song stood up, raised his glass, and proposed a toast to the crowd.
“Cheers to fate!”
“Cheers to Manager Huo!”
“Here’s to the money!”
Everyone raised their glasses and clinked them together before downing them in one gulp.
“Today, there’s something else I want to talk about. I won’t beat around the bush since everyone knows about it. The contributions I’ve made to our factory are clear to everyone. I won’t say much more, but if all of you here can help me, Huo Song, reach a higher level, I will always remember your kindness!” Huo Song looked at everyone in front of him, delivering his campaign declaration.
As soon as the others heard his last sentence, they became exceptionally excited. “You vote for me, and I’ll vote for you. Tomorrow, the factory manager’s surname will be Huo.”
“Then we must congratulate Director Huo in advance!”
“Director Huo, don’t forget us, your old friends when the time comes!”
Compliments and flattery echoed in Huo Song’s mind. He felt like he was losing himself in all the pursuit. Seeing that his goal had been achieved, he invited everyone to eat and drink to their heart’s content.
The women’s side was no different, with Mrs. Huo, Liu Lu, entertaining the female guests.
“Congratulations, Madam Director!” The female workers surrounded Liu Lu, showering her with praises.
“Don’t jump to conclusions. It’s not confirmed yet,” Liu Lu’s lips curved into a smile that almost reached her ears as she pretended to stop them from speculating.
“We’re not speculating. Isn’t it obvious? Everyone knows that I never lie!” Madam Li was flattered.
“Your words are too sweet!” Liu Lu covered her face and laughed.
“Everyone, enjoy the food and drinks. If it’s not enough, there’s more! I’ll arrange anything you want to eat today! Let’s all earn money together!”
When they arrived at the entrance of Xiang Yuan, they overheard this sentence.
Xiang Wan glanced at Ling Yun, and he understood. He stepped forward and kicked open the mansion’s gate.
“Bang!”
Ling Yun led the way, Liu Gang protected Xiang Wan and Chu Ying, and the group stormed into the yard.
The guests in the courtyard looked at them in surprise.
“Earn money together? I wonder when Boss Huo will give me my share of the rent?” Xiang Wan’s cool voice reached everyone’s ears.
“Who are you? Why should I give you rent? What did I rent from you?” Huo Song stood up and questioned.
“Who am I? Of course, I’m the owner of this house! You’ve been living in this house for so many years. You can’t be unaware that the house belongs to the Xiang family, right? I’m just asking for some rent, it’s not too much, right? After all, we’re all earning money together!” Xiang Wan mocked him.
“The ownership of this house is written in the Xiang family’s name! You, a thief, are shamelessly trying to take over our nest!” Xiang Wan pressed forward step by step.
“Don’t spout nonsense, and don’t try to confuse the situation. If you keep talking nonsense, I will have someone send you away!” threatened Huo Song
“Why are you so nervous? Guilty conscience, perhaps?” Xiang Wan continued to press.
At this moment, everyone’s expressions changed subtly when they observed Huo Song.
“Shut up! Don’t believe her lies, everyone. She’s here to sabotage our plans, to prevent me from becoming the factory manager! Tell us who sent you! I’ll pay double the price!” Huo Song, cornered by relentless questioning, was so nervous that his head was covered in sweat.
“Hurry up, call security! Are they all dead? Get them out of here!” Huo Song frantically looked around, trying to find help.
