Chapter 572: Warning

~4 min read 737 words

When she saw the vehicle picking them up was a large truck, Liu Chuxue was momentarily stunned, taking quite a while to realize that this era was not like the future, and not every unit had a public sedan.

Mi Aijun from the Sales Section, a soldier turned civilian, was the first to climb aboard with agility, then pulled Zhang Chunsheng up.

Qiu Shaohua, standing below the truck, saw Zhang Chunsheng get on, first handed his briefcase up, thinking that once he himself got on, he could take the opportunity of pulling someone up to touch the beauty's small hand.

He just didn't expect the team leader, Wang Changzheng, to give the order to let the female comrades board first.

Originally, he had intended for the two female comrades to sit in the cab, but aside from the driver, only two people could fit up front; it wouldn't do to have the deputy factory director who came to pick them up sit in the back, yet separating the two female comrades was also inappropriate, so he simply decided to let them sit together in the back.

Liu Chuxue, being so sensitive, naturally noticed Qiu Shaohua's intentions and mentally crossed him out completely; she tossed her briefcase up into Mi Aijun's hands.

Without needing anyone's help, she climbed aboard with great agility, turned to look at Sister Jiang below the truck, and said, "Sister, give me the bag."

Sister Jiang was not very tall and found holding up the briefcase somewhat difficult; Wang Changzheng stepped forward, took the briefcase from her hand, and threw it directly up. Liu Chuxue caught it and set it aside, saying, "Sister, come, I'll pull you up."

Sister Jiang was not pretentious; stepping on the footrest, she climbed up, and with Liu Chuxue's assistance, she was on the truck very quickly.

Qiu Shaohua's eyes rolled, and he immediately stepped forward: "Accountant Liu, give me a hand."

Liu Chuxue pretended not to hear, picked up the briefcase at her feet, and said, "Sister, let's make some room so the people below can get on."

Sister Jiang naturally agreed wholeheartedly.

Wang Changzheng glared at Qiu Shaohua: "I advise you to put away those dirty thoughts, or don't blame me for kicking you out directly."

This Qiu Shaohua was simply a cancer in their Technical Section; he had no skills whatsoever, yet relied on his brother-in-law, a leader in the Ministry of Industry, and was truly audacious. Since he hadn't hindered Wang Changzheng before, he had been too lazy to bother with him.

But this time, since he was leading the team, he did not want any mistakes. If Qiu Shaohua didn't restrain himself and caused trouble again, he wouldn't mind turning on him; Qiu Shaohua had a backer, but he himself was no pushover.

Qiu Shaohua didn't expect Wang Changzheng to treat him this way: "Don't think you're superior just because you're the team leader. What can you do to me?"

Wang Changzheng was too lazy to argue with him. Earlier that morning, he had seen the person who sent Liu Chuxue to the truck and heard the conversation between Sister Jiang and Liu Chuxue: "Accountant Liu's fiancé is an officer in the army, and considering the merit she made on this trip, she is someone you cannot afford to offend."

What he didn't say was that, given Accountant Liu's skills and temperament, if you dared to reach out your claws, you probably wouldn't be able to continue working at the Rolling Steel Factory.

He just had that intuition.

The reception work done by this factory was quite good; they sent the people directly to the factory's guesthouse first, then gave each person a bath ticket: "Captain Wang, our guesthouse is not far from the bathhouse, and at this time, there aren't many people inside. After you wash up and rest a bit, it will be time for meals."

Naturally, they wouldn't decline such kindness: "Thank you so much for your trouble."

Liu Chuxue originally didn't want to go; to be honest, she couldn't accept the bathing method where everyone was naked with no privacy at all, since there were no partitions; it was just one large room.

After getting the key and entering the room, Liu Chuxue made an excuse: "Sister Jiang, my period has arrived, so I won't go. Later, I'll bring hot water up and just wipe myself down in the room."
