Chapter 181: with translation of chapter title
Yu Haitang, with a serious expression, nodded and said:
"Believe it, that's why I want you to go to the hospital for a check‑up."
"Only then can we shut up those who spread rumors."
Xu Damao was irritated.
Xu Damao would rather not have that kind of trust from Yu Haitang.
Xu Damao also knows that Yu Haitang trusts him.
The reason Xu Damao wants Lin Shengli to go to the hospital for a check‑up is to silence those who doubt him, especially Yu Li and Yan Jiecheng.
He thought for a moment and said:
"I have something tomorrow; can we do it another day?"
Yu Haitang nodded: "Okay, as long as you go to the hospital for a check‑up, that's fine."
"It's too late now, I'll go back with my sister first."
Xu Damao: "Alright, I'll go for the check‑up when I have time."
He had already thought it out: he would find a familiar doctor to forge a check‑up report.
However, he was worried that Lin Shengli would cause trouble.
After all, the test result sheet he once took to the hospital, he had shown it to Lin Shengli.
Early the next morning.
Liu Haizhong pushed his bicycle out of the house and at a glance saw Xu Damao leaning on his bicycle at his doorstep.
He hummed and rode away.
Xu Damao smiled and followed.
When they reached the Siheyuan Da Men, Liu Haizhong turned his head, gave Xu Damao a cold stare, and rode off.
Xu Damao also got on his bicycle, riding parallel to him.
The alley was narrow; riding side by side, Liu Haizhong nearly collided with the wall several times.
But.
Seeing that Xu Damao seemed prepared, especially recalling that he could now instantly defeat Shazhu, Liu Haizhong said nothing.
When they reached the main street, Liu Haizhong accelerated.
Unexpectedly, Xu Damao also sped up, riding alongside him.
He couldn't help but ask:
"You, what are you trying to do?"
Then.
He stopped, and Xu Damao also stopped, replying with a question instead of an answer:
"Don't you want to know why I'm being so overbearing?"
Liu Haizhong snorted coldly and said, "You, let me tell you, this is cowardice."
Xu Damao sneered.
Liu Haizhong continued, "You, you're afraid that once I enter the factory gate, your position as a projectionist will be lost immediately."
Xu Damao looked at Liu Haizhong and said gravely, "It should be you who is afraid, Liu Haizhong."
"I'm telling you, I've already figured it out."
"A couple of days ago you took people to Huang Dacai's house, and in the end Huang Dacai gave you two small yellow fish, which you didn't turn in."
Hearing this, Liu Haizhong broke out in cold sweat.
Xu Damao gave a cold laugh and asked, "Did I say something wrong? Huh?"
Liu Haizhong frowned tightly, saying nothing.
Xu Damao said, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."
"But I have two conditions."
"First, you must apologize to Yu Haitang."
"Because we will be neighbors in the future."
"Second, say a few flattering words to Director Li in his presence, invite him out, and I'll treat him to a meal."
Having said that, he rode away.
Watching Xu Damao's back, Liu Haizhong wiped the sweat from his forehead and rode off.
Arriving at Ya gang chang, he parked his bicycle and headed straight for the broadcast room.
"Hey, Group Leader Liu, your illustrious presence graces our office today—does Director Li have any new orders?"
Yu Haitang was sorting manuscripts and only looked up when she heard someone speak.
Liu Haizhong pointed at Yu Haitang and said:
"No, I have something to discuss with comrade Haitang."
The person was momentarily stunned, then said:
"Oh, I understand, then you go ahead and chat."
"I'll head to the publicity department first."
Liu Haizhong nodded and saw the person off.
After the person vanished from his sight, Liu Haizhong cleared his throat, looked at Yu Haitang and said:
"Haitang, um, I misunderstood yesterday, ah."
Yu Haitang frowned and said, "Hey, don't say that; if you apologize to me, I couldn't bear it."
Liu Haizhong: "You, you don't have to be modest, ah."
"Yesterday, just yesterday, I suddenly understood."
"It's my son—he, he's not worthy of you."
"This, this marriage matter, you know."
"Ah, right? This isn't something that can be decided just by whose authority is bigger, is it?"
"This, this matter, just like that, just—just consider that I never said it."
"From now on, this thing won't exist."
"No one mention it, okay."
"I'm leaving."
Yu Haitang, with a puzzled face, said: "Um, thank you, Group Leader Liu."
Liu Haizhong nodded, took a deep breath in secret, then placed his hands behind his back and walked toward the exit.
Yu Haitang watched his silhouette until it vanished from her sight, and couldn't help whispering to herself:
"He's really out of line; he actually fears Xu Damao."
"Is Xu Damao really that powerful?"
Yu Haitang hadn't expected Liu Haizhong to change so quickly.
She never imagined Xu Damao held leverage over Liu Haizhong.
Otherwise, today Liu Haizhong could have taken away Xu Damao's projectionist position.
Because she thought Xu Damao was very capable, Yu Haitang liked Xu Damao even more.
For a moment, she also forgot to have Xu Damao go to the hospital for a check‑up.
The next day.
Xu Damao bought some gifts and went with Yu Haitang to Yan Bu Gui Jia.
Seeing this, Yan Bu Gui and San Da Ma were also very pleased.
Yan Bu Gui laughed: "Alright, Damao, I hold your San Da Ye in high regard."
Xu Damao: "Look at the way you speak, you're not pleased, are you?"
"In the future, won't we be relatives then?"
Yan Bu Gui: "That probably won't work, right?"
"Damao, although I really want what you brought, I can't go against my conscience."
"Doing this will harm Haitang."
Xu Damao, displeased, said: "No, what are you saying?"
"I hold you in high regard, that's why I brought gifts to see you."
"But you…"
Yu Haitang: "Yes, how can you speak like that?"
Yan Bu Gui asked: "Let me ask you, Haitang, are you two planning to get married?"
Yu Haitang: "More or less."
Yan Bu Gui: "What does your sister think?"
Yu Haitang: "I—I came with Damao today to ask you to talk to my sister, to do some ideological work on her."
Yan Bu Gui: "So that means your sister refused?"
Xu Damao: "San Da Ye, as long as you do us this favor, I will certainly owe you a great benefit."
Yan Bu Gui: "Xu Damao, what you said really moves me."
"But I enjoy the five blessings."
Saying that, he looked at Yu Haitang and continued:
"Haitang, Xu Damao really is infertile; he even admitted it that day."
Xu Damao, angry, said: "San Da Ye, that's not right!"
"I came here with good intentions to see you, you, you…"
At that moment, Lin Shengli and Yu Li walked in.
Lin Shengli laughed: "Hey, Xu Damao, why are you so angry?"
Xu Damao nodded at Lin Shengli and forced a smile, saying:
"Shengli is here, I—I am not angry."
Yu Li: "Xu Damao, in front of Shengli today, tell me, do you actually have infertility?"
