Chapter 62: Why Provoke Her For No Reason?
Lu Qiaoge said mildly again, “I have a good memory. If you want to hear it, I can describe the scene at that time to you exactly as it happened.”
Cai Xiaohe actually really wanted to hear it.
But she knew she couldn’t listen at this time.
Because from Lu Qiaoge’s expression, she knew that if she forced Lu Qiaoge to say it, not only would she not be thanked by Liang Aishu and Shen Yun, but she would instead be resented.
Lu Qiaoge was neither angry nor anxious, and even had a smile at the corner of her mouth: “Comrade Cai Xiaohe, Director Hao hosting the meeting that day was a bit inappropriate. He should have asked you to host it.”
Cai Xiaohe’s face immediately flushed red with shame. How could she not understand the meaning in Lu Qiaoge’s words? She hadn’t expected Lu Qiaoge to be so difficult to deal with.
She was so anxious she was about to cry: “I… that’s not what I meant.”
She wasn’t worried about Lu Qiaoge; she was worried about Director Hao finding out about this.
Lu Qiaoge’s voice turned cold: “Then what do you mean by stopping me during work hours to question me about topics unrelated to work?”
Cai Xiaohe was speechless.
The young women were all stunned, and none of them spoke.
Shao Le sneered coldly. Normally, they were hyped up as the four flowers of the broadcasting station, floating along without knowing their own weight.
Lu Qiaoge?
Although she was a newcomer just like him.
But Lu Qiaoge’s work ability was much stronger than his. Not to mention anything else, her eloquence was a hundred times sharper than his.
Why provoke her for no reason?
She wouldn’t let you gain even the slightest advantage.
Lu Qiaoge put away the smile on her face and said meaningfully, “Your factory department broadcasting station is quite leisurely. During work hours, you can casually wander around and stop people to speak righteously. Since when has work discipline in our military factory become so lax? Do your leaders know?”
The young women’s faces changed.
At this moment, not far away at the military representative office, although it was only a two-story small building, because of its somewhat special location, Qin Hengzhi, standing in front of the window of the military representative’s office, happened to see this scene.
His deep black eyes looked toward that young woman with her upright posture.
This girl seemed to have been stopped and targeted by someone.
Qin Hengzhi’s fingers unconsciously tapped on the window sill. Watching Lu Qiaoge face off against five, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He didn’t know why, but every time he saw Lu Qiaoge, it refreshed his previous impression of her.
That feeling was something he had never experienced before; it was very novel and mysterious.
At this time, Lu Qiaoge didn’t know that Representative Qin was watching the excitement.
She pointed at Shao Le who was about to open his mouth to speak: “Comrade Shao, on the day we started work, Director Hu once said that as soon as you step onto your work post, you must remember that you are a public servant, serving the people, not here to handle personal matters. Don’t bring things unrelated to work to the post. Do you think what he said is right?”
Shao Le’s forehead was beading with sweat.
He gritted his teeth and stamped his foot, pointing at Cai Xiaohe: “You… why don’t you apologize to Comrade Lu yet?”
Chen Zhi felt very uncomfortable inside, feeling like her partner was siding with Lu Qiaoge.
Just as she was about to say something out of spite, Xia Lan, who hadn’t spoken, hurriedly said, “Comrade Lu, Cai Xiaohe is straightforward. Don’t take it to heart.”
Then she pinched Cai Xiaohe.
But Cai Xiaohe gritted her teeth and refused to speak.
Lu Qiaoge waved her hand: “This matter isn’t your fault, Cai Xiaohe. It’s just that my family is an ordinary worker family, without the capital to make you dread me. I just hope you don’t learn from Shen Yun and retaliate against me afterward. As for an apology, it’s entirely unnecessary!”
Lu Qiaoge then said to Shao Le, “Don’t go to the archive room. Resolve the matter here. Don’t cause me any trouble. I’m different from you all; I truly love and cherish this job.”
After Lu Qiaoge finished speaking, she turned and walked away.
Shao Le was somewhat exasperated: “What’s wrong with you all? Did you take gunpowder? You don’t even know Lu Qiaoge, so why accuse her without reason?”
Xia Lan frowned: “I didn’t say anything. Besides, wasn’t it Lu Qiaoge chattering on nonstop by herself?”
Chen Zhi immediately said, “Exactly, exactly!”
Shao Le annoyedly grabbed a handful of his hair: “Which of her words was wrong? Tell me, I guarantee I’ll report it to Director Hu… Speak up! Weren’t you all so capable just now, speaking righteously? You know what’s going on and still speak righteously?”
Cai Xiaohe shamefully wiped away a tear: “Why are you yelling at me? I was just warning her a bit earlier. Why don’t you say it to her?”
Shao Le had always thought his childhood playmates were very smart, especially Cai Xiaohe. She got into the broadcasting station not only because her pronunciation was standard and clear, but also because her education level was high, her memory was good, and sometimes she could even speak off-script without any mistakes. That was already impressive.
But today he realized that Cai Xiaohe was a bit too self-conceited.
Shao Le originally wanted to chase after Lu Qiaoge to the archive room; that was his job anyway. But now he didn’t. He was so angry he laughed: “Comrade Cai Xiaohe, in what capacity did you warn Lu Qiaoge? What did she do to make you warn her?”
Cai Xiaohe clenched her hands tightly, rendered speechless by Shao Le’s retort. She pulled at Xia Lan, who was the oldest: “Look at Shao Le. He’s not on our side anymore.”
Tears flowed from Chen Zhi’s eyes, and she choked out, “Shao Le, what do you mean? For Lu Qiaoge’s sake, you’re accusing my good sisters. You don’t care about us at all.”
Before Lu Qiaoge entered the office building, she heard the suppressed sobs of Shao Le’s partner behind her mixed with Cai Xiaohe’s mutter of “What’s so great about her, just a little street mediator”…
Cold intent flashed in Lu Qiaoge’s eyes. These delicate flowers who didn’t know the hardships of the world, even in this era of shortages, because of the protection from their father’s generation and this special military factory work unit, had basically never suffered any hardship.
She didn’t know if this world was the 1970s of her original time-space, but before the apocalypse arrived, she was not only born into a great family clan but also the group heir, the treasure held in the palm of the Lu Family.
She hadn’t suffered any hardship either.
After the natural disasters came, the entire world turned upside down.
Tsunamis, earthquakes, extreme heat and cold, raging storms and heavy rain, floods, and ubiquitous viruses made humans struggle to survive like ants.
When she crossed over to this world, she remembered what her parents said to her before they died: they would surely meet again.
Lu Qiaoge was still Lu Qiaoge; her appearance hadn’t changed, but her parents’ appearances here were surprisingly three parts similar.
She felt this must be the reunion her parents had spoken of.
She not only cherished this job but also cherished this warm and harmonious family.
Lu Qiaoge took the letter of introduction and knocked on the door of the archive room. The elder sister in the archive room must have known about Master Liu’s family situation, so she found it very quickly.
Lu Qiaoge noted down the basic information, thanked the elder sister in the archive room, and left the factory department building.
Just as she exited the main door, she saw Qin Hengzhi walking this way with a stack of documents.
The military factory was really huge, so big that she and some acquaintances might not see each other for ten years.
But it also felt very small, small enough that as soon as she stepped out, she ran into Qin Hengzhi!
Lu Qiaoge smiled warmly and greeted him proactively: “Representative Qin.”
Qin Hengzhi stopped, lowering his gaze to look at Lu Qiaoge.
Not bad combat power, made two cry!
