Chapter 274: Not Short of Money

Soon, Pang Yong arrived. Seeing Lin Guosheng's gloomy face, his heart skipped a beat. Don't look at how infinitely glorious he was outside; in front of Lin Guosheng, he was as obedient as a well-trained dog.

Fu Laoqi saw the swollen half of Pang Yong's face and his mouth twitched, forcing himself to suppress the urge to laugh. Now, even with his toes, he could guess what had happened.

Tong Xiao wanted to deal with Pang Yong, which was exactly the result he wanted, but because he was guilty, he was also scared into a cold sweat. But before he could be happy, Lin Guosheng had protected Pang Yong. To be honest, he was really disappointed.

However, looking at this bastard's swollen face now, he felt quite comfortable inside.

Lin Guosheng said coldly, "Do you know why I called you here?"

Pang Yong said honestly, "Because of that Tong Xiao?"

Lin Guosheng asked, "You're not stupid. Do you know who she is?"

Pang Yong shook his head: "I don't know."

"Bang!"

Lin Guosheng slammed his palm heavily on the table. The teacups and teapot jumped, making a crisp clattering sound, which also startled Pang Yong and Fu Laoqi.

"What did you do to her?"

Pang Yong's throat bobbed: "I... I just touched her face."

Lin Guosheng laughed out of extreme anger: "You really have enough guts. You dare to tease anyone."

Fu Laoqi couldn't help but sneer: "If it weren't for the boss pleading for you, you wouldn't see tomorrow's sun."

Pang Yong looked at Fu Laoqi coldly: "Isn't this exactly what you wanted?"

"Fart!" How could Fu Laoqi admit to this, especially in front of Lin Guosheng? Even if he were given two sets of guts, he wouldn't dare admit it, "What good would it do me if you died?"

Pang Yong was just about to speak when Lin Guosheng snorted coldly: "Enough!"

Pang Yong immediately shut his mouth, but still glared fiercely at Fu Laoqi.

"From now on, walk around Tong Xiao when you see her. If you make her unhappy again, even I won't be able to protect you."

Lin Guosheng tapped the table, "And the matter she wants handled, you go do it. But don't make a move in Jiangzhou. Find a way to lure the person out; it's best to manufacture an accident. Then send away everyone involved and cut all contact with you.

Once trouble arises and you get implicated, I will find a way to fish you out. But you must remember, you have never seen Tong Xiao, and you don't know her. If you implicate her, you will definitely die, and even your family won't be able to escape."

Pang Yong's head buzzed. Although he still didn't know who Tong Xiao was, he had already guessed from Lin Guosheng's words that she was definitely a person from a level that even his father-in-law couldn't touch.

Thinking of the stupid things he had done, Fu Laoqi broke out in a cold sweat again; he truly had a feeling of having escaped death.

Lin Guosheng stood up: "Handle things cleanly and neatly; try not to leave a tail." After saying this, he strode out.

Seeing Lin Guosheng leave, Pang Yong sneered at Fu Laoqi.

"Old thing, you actually dared to pit me. Just wait, sooner or later I'll throw you into a concrete mixer to lay the foundation for a building."

Fu Laoqi turned around expressionlessly: "Dawei, let's go."

In the end, only Pang Yong was left, staying in the private room for more than two hours before leaving.

August 2nd, the third day of the seventh lunar month, Sunday.

A light drizzle began to fall in the morning. It wasn't even eight o'clock yet, and the factory's Cultural Palace was already packed, and people were still pouring in.

"Old Zhao, you're on duty today, why did you run over here?"

"I just came to take a look, I'll go back in a bit."

"Old Qian, your son didn't pass the exam. Coming here to watch others receive bonuses, how stifling it must be for you. You'd better hurry back and stop adding to your own misery."

"Nothing stifling about it. This is fate; I accept it."

"Oh my, Old Sun, your daughter got into an undergraduate program. Although it's not a key university, she can still get a bonus of 6666. You've struck it rich."

"Hehehehe... the girl is promising, and I'm basking in her glory. But this money is her bonus; I won't touch it, I'll save it all for her."

"Old Li, I heard someone from the electronics factory got into Tsinghua, is that right?"

"Yes, I heard about that too. It's the only one from our Jiangzhou who got into Tsinghua."

"I also heard from the finance department that they are going to give a special grand prize to the child who got into Tsinghua."

"Grand prize, what grand prize?"

"I don't know either. The finance department said it's confidential; we'll know when they present the award."

The venue was noisy. Regardless of whether their children had participated in this year's college entrance exam, everyone had a happy smile on their face. Some who had children with them began to lecture them, telling them to study hard; whether they could get a bonus next year depended on themselves.

In Zhou Andong's office, the leaders of all the branch factories were present. The space wasn't small, but now it seemed a bit crowded.

"Clap, clap, clap..."

The office door was knocked. Yan Guohai, standing at the door, opened it. Yao Jun poked his head in: "Factory Director, the municipal leaders are here; they've already entered."

"Ah?" Zhou Andong said in surprise: "Who?"

Yao Jun said: "Cheng Zhanjun, Deng Zhangli, Zuo Peiming!"

Zhou Andong slapped his forehead: "Alright, everyone go out and welcome them."

A group of people swarmed out, escorting Zhou Andong and Gu Bing. Once they left the factory headquarters, they saw Cheng Zhanjun, Deng Zhangli, and Zuo Peiming walking toward them while chatting about something. They had actually brought several reporters, one of whom was an old acquaintance.

Zhou Andong walked over quickly: "Leaders, why are you here?"

Deng Zhangli said with a smile: "You're making such a big commotion, how could we not come and take a look?"

Zhou Andong asked: "How did you know?"

Zuo Peiming said: "Liu Qingjun told me. He went to chat with me a couple of days ago and said a little girl from their factory got into Tsinghua, and the winery set up a scholarship fund—anyone who gets into university gets a bonus.

He also said that today, you are giving out bonuses to the children who got into university and holding a party to celebrate. I thought, this is a good thing.

The enterprise has developed, has money, and is providing benefits for the employees; this should be well-publicized. So I notified the Secretary and Mayor Deng, and we came together to take a look."

Zhou Andong nodded: "There's still some time, shall we go to the conference room for a while?"

Cheng Zhanjun said: "No need, let's go to the venue together; it must be very lively now."

"Alright!" Zhou Andong said: "Let's go now."

As the group walked toward the Cultural Palace, Deng Zhangli asked: "How many children passed?"

Zhou Andong said: "Only two got into key universities, seven into non-key ones, and forty-three into vocational colleges."

Deng Zhangli smiled: "That's quite a few!"

Cheng Zhanjun also smiled: "I heard the bonuses are quite substantial. With so many people, your factory is going to bleed money."

Zhou Andong waved his hand and said heroically: "Our factory lacks everything, but right now, we are not short of money." ===== CHAPTER 275 =====
