But before leaving, he said to Liu Haizhong: "Old Liu, I really didn't mean to you, I just passed on a message."

After saying that, he hurriedly left Zhou Chen's room, fearing that Liu Haizhong would vent his anger on him.

But before he could be discharged from the hospital, he was grabbed by Yi Zhonghai.

"Old Yan, where are you going?"

Because he was far away, Yi Zhonghai did not hear the conversation in the room. He only saw Yan Bugui running out of the room, so he stopped him out of curiosity.

When Yan Bugui saw that it was Yi Zhonghai, he sighed and said, "Where else can I go? Go to the police station. Zhou Chen insisted that I call someone from the police station. It seems that this matter today is really going to get out of hand."

"To the police station?"

Yi Zhonghai was fine, but Qin Huairu and He Yuzhu were both shocked.

"Old Yan, are you really going to the police station?"

"Ah, then can I not go?"

Yi Zhonghai grabbed Yan Bugui and said, "Old Yan, you really can't go. If the police are really called in for this incident today, it will be troublesome and not good for our hospital."

Although he was no longer a big shot, he still instinctively thought about the courtyard and did not want to attract the police.

Yan Bugui asked in confusion: "Of course I know that, but Zhou Chen asked me to go, and you didn't see it. He is really scary when he gets angry. I think it would be safer to call the police station."

Yi Zhonghai still insisted: "No, we can't go to the police station. This is a matter between our factory and the hospital. It's best not to alert the police station. So, Lao Yan, you come with me to the steel rolling mill and find the factory director. The factory director has a good relationship with Zhou Chen. If the factory director can come, this matter will be easy to solve."

"Ah? Go find the factory director. Is that okay? Can he come?" Yan Bugui was not optimistic.

Qin Huairu interrupted and said, "I think it's possible. It's said in the factory that Zhou Chen has a good relationship with Director Yang. If Director Yang knew that Zhou Chen was in trouble, he would definitely come."

Yan Bugui thought about it and felt that this was a good idea, so he no longer insisted on going to the police station, but followed Yi Zhonghai to the steel rolling mill.

However, He Yuzhu looked at their departing backs and said unhappily, "We don't know what they have done wrong yet. Whether the factory director will help them is another matter."

Qin Huairu glared at him and said, "Can't you just hope for something good? What good will it do you if Zhou Chen gets into trouble?"

"That's a lot of benefits. At least I don't have to see him every day, so I don't get angry." He Yuzhu shouted.

"That's all you can do."

Qin Huairu rolled her eyes. She didn't want anything to happen to Zhou Chen. At least Zhou Chen was in the hospital and might be able to help her in the future. On the contrary, she couldn't stand what Liu Haizhong and Xu Damao did and thought they were too mean-spirited.

As soon as Yan Bugui left, the atmosphere in the room became more depressing. Except for Zhou Chen who was sitting there, Liu Haizhong and the others were standing without saying a word.

The group of people standing outside the house saw that there was suddenly no movement inside and the discussions became louder, but after a while, many people dispersed.

Not everyone is idle. It's impossible to just sit here and watch.

Liu Haizhong couldn't stand standing for a while, so he was about to sit down on the stool in Zhou Chen's house. But before he sat down, Zhou Chen shouted.

"What are you doing? Who told you to sit down? This is my home. If you want to sit down, go back to your own home and sit down."

Liu Haizhong said angrily: "Zhou Chen, how come you don't know how to respect your elders at all?"

"Elder? Are you worthy? I still say, if you want to sit, go back to your own house, or just stand there."

"You..." Liu Haizhong trembled with anger.

Xu Damao couldn't help it: "Zhou Chen, don't go too far..."

"Xu Damao, shut up! When is it your turn to speak?"

Zhou Chen picked up the enamel cup on the table and smashed it over, scaring Xu Damao so much that he screamed and dodged in embarrassment.

"Zhou Chen..."

"Are you still shouting?"

Xu Damao's voice suddenly stopped and he dared not shout anymore, because Zhou Chen really dared to take action.

I couldn't sit, so I could only stand. After just a while, Liu Haizhong was sweating all over, even his clothes were wet.

But he still didn't think of leaving, because he wanted to keep an eye on Zhou Chen. What if he left and Zhou Chen hid the things, wouldn't all his work be in vain?

Xu Damao had the same idea as him. He had completely offended Zhou Chen today, so he had to kill Zhou Chen. He would not feel at ease until he saw Zhou Chen dead.

Since they wanted to waste time, Zhou Chen naturally wouldn't refuse. Anyway, he had already figured out the methods of these two people, so he was not worried at all. He just waited for someone to come and solve the problem.

Finally, the second aunt couldn't stand it anymore, so she went home and brought a stool for Liu Haizhong to sit on.

"This is my home. If you bring in things that don't belong to me, don't blame me for smashing them. If you want to sit here, get out of here."

Faced with Zhou Chen's threat, Liu Hai was so angry that his teeth were itching, but in the end his body couldn't bear it.

"Xu Damao, and the other four of you, keep watching me closely. I'm going to go outside to take a break and get some fresh air."

Xu Damao and his companions were very unhappy when they saw Liu Haizhong leaving them, but there was nothing they could do but stay and keep an eye on Zhou Chen.

After about forty or fifty minutes, this silent stalemate finally saw a change.

When Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui walked into the front yard with a few people, the people who were watching the fun in the yard immediately looked over.

"It's Director Yang."

"Even Director Yang was alarmed. It seems something serious has really happened."

"I heard that Director Yang has a good relationship with Zhou Chen. Are you here to support Zhou Chen?"

"Who knows? After all, Zhou Chen is just a doctor, while Liu Haizhong is now an official. It's hard to say who Director Yang will side with."

…………

Yi Zhonghai led the way: "Make way, everyone, let Director Yang go in."

Everyone made way for them, and Director Yang and the others came to Zhou Chen's door.

Liu Haizhong immediately stood up and called out respectfully and flatteringly, "Director, why are you here?"

Director Yang glanced at Liu Haizhong coldly. Since this was not his man, he naturally would not be polite.

"If I hadn't come, I wouldn't have known that such a big thing had happened here."

After saying that, he walked into the room and saw Zhou Chen sitting there.

"Zhou Chen, what's going on?"

Zhou Chen stood up, looking innocent: "Director, I'm just like you, I don't know what's going on. I got home from get off work today, and a group of people suddenly rushed in, saying that I had hidden some contraband and wanted to search my house. It was inexplicable, and I didn't see any documents, but they wanted to search my house. Of course I couldn't agree, so they wanted to search by force, and we had a conflict."

Upon hearing this, Liu Haizhong, who followed in, quickly retorted: "Director, don't listen to his nonsense. We received a report that he was hiding contraband, and we searched according to the rules. Not only did he not want to, he also resisted and beat people. Look at my face, he beat me."

But Director Yang just glanced at him calmly and asked, "You said someone reported it, so you came here. Do you have any evidence?"

"This……"

"You forcibly searched without any evidence. Who gave you the authority?"

Liu Haizhong was sweating all over and was at a loss, so he looked at Xu Damao for help.

Xu Damao cursed inwardly that he was a piece of trash, then took the initiative to stand up and said, "Director, I also know about this. Zhou Chen's family does have some banned Chinese medicine books hidden in it."

Director Yang's face turned cold. Of course he knew Xu Damao, but he didn't expect that Xu Damao was involved in this matter.

He was about to speak when there was a sudden commotion outside, and then he saw Li Huaide coming over with a few people.

"Director Yang." "Director Li."

Director Yang greeted Li Huaide.

"Director Li, this Liu Haizhong is one of your men. Do you know what he is going to do?"

Li Huaide's face was not looking good either, and he glared at Liu Haizhong fiercely. He was not aware of this matter at first, and he came here because someone tipped him off.

But Liu Haizhong was his man after all, so he asked in a deep voice: "Team Leader Liu, is the report you received accurate?"

When Liu Haizhong saw Li Huaide, he breathed a sigh of relief and immediately replied: "Director Li, I did receive a report from the masses. In fact, if you want to prove whether it is true or not, you only need to search it to find out."

Zhou Chen chuckled, "So according to what you said, as long as someone reports it, you can search other people's homes at will? Your power is greater than that of the police station?"

Although he knew that this era was somewhat special, it did not mean that he could be bullied.

Director Yang said, "What Zhou Chen said is correct. Director Li, do the people under you have so much power?"

Li Huaide smiled like a smiling tiger: "Director, you also know that the current situation is special. Zhou Chen, I personally believe that you are innocent, but after all, someone reported it. In order to prove your innocence, you should ask the security department to search. I promise you, if nothing is found, I will let Lao Liu apologize to you in person."

Liu Haizhong immediately shouted, "That's right. If I can't find it, I will apologize to you in person."

Zhou Chen sneered, "You framed me in front of so many people, and you can just apologize and get away with it?"

"So what do you want? I think you are just feeling guilty and don't dare to let us search, right?"

"You can search if you want, but if you can't find it, I want you to apologize to me in front of everyone in the courtyard, and I will slap you on the other side of your face."

After hearing this, Liu Haizhong yelled angrily: "Zhou Chen, don't go too far."

But Li Huaide stopped him: "Lao Liu, since you are sure, what are you afraid of?"

"Director Li, I'm not afraid, I'm..."

When the time came, Liu Haizhong felt a little nervous. After all, he only heard what Xu Damao said and didn't know the specific situation here with Zhou Chen. If he didn't find anything, he would be very embarrassed.

"Why, you don't dare? Liu Haizhong, weren't you so arrogant just now? I've agreed to let you search now, why don't you dare anymore?"

Zhou Chen did not give Liu Haizhong a chance to regret and started to mock him directly.

Liu Haizhong was indeed provoked: "Who said I don't dare? I don't believe you are innocent. Search, search now."

Not only did he command the security personnel to take action, he also took action himself.

But before they made their move, Zhou Chen suddenly said in a cold voice: "You can search, but if you damage anything in my house, you must pay compensation."

Director Yang said, "Zhou Chen, don't worry. I'm right here. If they really damage anything in your house, no one will be able to escape."

He originally wanted to favor Zhou Chen and help Zhou Chen avoid the search, but since Zhou Chen agreed, he certainly would not object. He felt that there must be no problem with Zhou Chen, otherwise he would not allow them to search.

Liu Haizhong and a few others began to search Zhou Chen's house frantically, but after searching around, they didn't find what they wanted, which made Liu Haizhong so nervous that he was sweating profusely.

When Xu Damao saw this, he went up to help and began to search carefully inch by inch. Finally, he found a box between the bed frames.

He opened it with great anticipation, but the next moment, his expression froze. It was not the contraband he expected, but stacks of banknotes.

No evidence was found, only a box of money and bills, so Liu Haizhong tried every possible means to find a solution.

"Zhou Chen, there is nearly a thousand dollars here. Where did you get all this money? Did you do anything illegal or criminal? Or did you engage in speculation?"

No matter what, it’s right to put the blame on Zhou Chen first.

Seeing so much money in the box, everyone in the room was surprised. It was really unusual to have so much savings in this day and age.

Zhou Chen said calmly, "Why? You're trying to put the blame on me because you didn't find any contraband? This is my money. Do I need to explain so much to you?"

Chapter 907: The Humiliated Second Master, Slap Again

Liu Haizhong has been provoked by Zhou Chen to the point of almost losing his mind. He has finally caught a handle, and he is determined to put it on Zhou Chen's head.

"Your money? Zhou Chen, how long have you been working here? How can you make so much money? And there are so many meat coupons and industrial coupons. I think you got them by reselling. The factory director and Director Li are here. I think you should stop quibbling."

Xu Damao also shouted loudly: "Yes, Zhou Chen, you should confess quickly and get leniency."

Zhou Chen said calmly: "I have nothing to say. These money and bills are all mine. You just said that I hid contraband. So I want to ask, are money and bills considered contraband?"

Liu Haizhong said anxiously: "Money and tickets are not contraband, but how you got them may be more serious than hiding contraband."

These days, speculating in transactions is also a serious crime. If convicted of this crime, Zhou Chen will have to spend at least a few years in prison.

Zhou Chen sneered, "If that's the case, then if I search your house and find money and notes, you have to tell me where they came from, or else you must have bought and sold them?"

"You, Zhou Chen, you, you are making a fuss. We are talking about your problem now, why do you have to drag me into it?"

Seeing that Zhou Chen was bullying him with every word, Liu Haizhong was so angry that his whole body was shaking and he wanted to tear Zhou Chen's mouth apart.

Finally, Li Huaide couldn't stand it anymore and took the initiative to persuade: "Doctor Zhou, Team Leader Liu has no other intentions. As long as you explain the origin of the money and bills, as long as the origin is normal, the matter can be resolved."

Director Yang, as the leader of the steel rolling mill, did not want to continue to be in a stalemate here. Moreover, in his eyes, this matter was not a big deal at all. He just wanted to resolve it as soon as possible.

Also, he has known Zhou Chen for a long time. He has taken Zhou Chen out to dinner dozens of times. He has a certain understanding of Zhou Chen's character and personality. He believes that there is no need for Zhou Chen to do that kind of thing.

"Zhou Chen, I believe you. Just tell the truth. Don't worry about anything. As long as you haven't made any mistakes, I will definitely not let anyone wrongly accuse you."

Zhou Chen was silent for a moment before he spoke: "Part of this money is my father's compensation, part is my retirement money, and part is my salary. As for these coupons, they were given to me by the patients because I treated them for free."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Haizhong shouted, "Zhou Chen, don't think I don't know that you have been eating meat almost every day since you came back. Can you still save money?"

But Zhou Chen didn't even look at him. He just said to Director Yang and Li Huaide, "Director Yang, Director Li, I told you the truth. You all know how much compensation my father received. You can also find out how much money I got after retiring from the army. As for what Liu Haizhong said about eating meat, how much is meat per pound? My monthly salary is more than 40 yuan. Even if I eat meat every day, can I still not afford it?"
