Chapter 1493

~5 min read 821 words

After pondering for a moment, Su Xinghui said, "I know, Mayor Lü. I will find a way to solve this matter."

During lunch, Su Xinghui saw Du Fangfang coming out of the cafeteria with her head down, carrying a meal in her hand, walking in a hurry. Even though she had her head down, Su Xinghui could still see that her eyes were a bit red and swollen.

Usually, when Su Xinghui saw Du Fangfang, he would greet her, but today he couldn't do that. He watched Du Fangfang hurry back to her dormitory, feeling heavy-hearted.

He certainly knew that these rumors actually hurt Du Fangfang the most. As a young, unmarried girl, how could she endure such filthy language?

Was Du Fangfang wrong? She was not wrong. Su Xinghui was not yet married and was so outstanding; it was normal for her to admire Su Xinghui. Why should she have to endure such filthy language?

Su Xinghui reflected on himself. In the future, he still needed to learn a lesson, keep a distance from female comrades, get married as soon as possible, and then transfer Lu Xiaoya over so that the two of them could stay together. That would be better.

As soon as Su Xinghui walked to the entrance of the cafeteria, he heard Yin Hualong's voice: "Are you people bored? What are you gossiping about here? Is Secretary Su that kind of person? Du Fangfang is also a good girl. She is warm-hearted and helps everyone with their work. How can you bear to gossip about her?"

Su Xinghui stopped his steps and listened there. A female employee's voice said, "There's no smoke without fire. Otherwise, why would others spread rumors about her alone and not others?"

Another male employee said, "We believe in Secretary Su, but Du Fangfang really needs to restrain herself a bit."

Listening to these people's chatter, Su Xinghui couldn't help it anymore. He walked into the cafeteria and stood in the middle with a straight face. Everyone stopped talking immediately, as if the power had been cut off. The whole cafeteria became silent. They all stopped their chopsticks and looked at Su Xinghui with some panic.

Although Su Xinghui was young, he had firmly established his prestige with his impeccable and outstanding performance. He stood there without even needing to speak, which was enough to make these people extremely fearful.

This is what is called "dignity without anger."

After a long while, Su Xinghui spoke: "Are you all idle? Is there not enough work in the town for you to do? If the work on your hands is all done, hand in a work report to me tomorrow. If it is not done, then please don't spread such irrelevant gossip in the future!"

No one in the cafeteria dared to make a sound. It was the first time everyone had seen Su Xinghui get so angry at ordinary employees. Usually, Su Xinghui was very kind and approachable to the employees, eating together, playing ball together, and playing chess together in his spare time. But they didn't expect him to be so terrifying when he got angry.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Su Xinghui said, "I don't want to hear such gossip again in the future. If anyone doesn't believe it, you can try."

After saying this, Su Xinghui didn't go to get his meal. He turned and walked out of the cafeteria. The employees in the cafeteria looked at each other.

Su Xinghui called Yu Ruizhi. Yu Ruizhi happened to be in Matou Town these days. The school they donated to build was about to be completed, and the leather factory was also almost built. Therefore, he had come to Matou Town.

As soon as the phone was picked up, Yu Ruizhi said, "Xinghui, are you looking for me to drink?"

Su Xinghui said, "Brother Yu, you guessed right. I am indeed looking for you to drink today."

Yu Ruizhi said without hesitation, "Okay, tell me where to drink."

Su Xinghui said, "Let's go to Haozailai."

Haozailai was the restaurant with the longest history in Matou Town. At first, there was only this one restaurant in the whole Matou Town. Now there were more and more restaurants in Matou Town, and Haozailai had also expanded its scale and maintained its original taste, so Su Xinghui still often came here to eat.

Yu Ruizhi said, "Okay, I'll be there right away."

Su Xinghui walked leisurely to the Haozailai restaurant. He asked for a private room. Before he even ordered the dishes, Yu Ruizhi and his sister Yu Ruoqiu arrived together.

The school donated to be built in Matou Town was donated by the charity foundation jointly established by Yu Ruizhi and Yu Ruoqiu. Yu Ruoqiu was also keen on charity work. The school was about to be completed, so Yu Ruoqiu naturally had to come over. She definitely had to attend that completion ceremony.
