Time Travel Article: My parents divorced at the beginning

Chapter 169 Willow

Zhang Huaimin ate absent-mindedly during the meal, and had no appetite. He kept thinking in his mind whether there were any loopholes in the things he had done over the years.

But the more I think about this, the more I feel there are many loopholes. You know, what he did was undermining socialism. If he was discovered, he would be shot.

The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. He couldn't eat anymore. He stood up and said to Li Guifen, "Eat by yourself. I have something to go out for."

As he said that, Zhao Huaimin picked up the briefcase on the table and walked out without looking back.

"Hey, what's the hurry? At least finish your meal!" Li Guifen shouted at Zhang Huaimin's back as he hurried away.

With such a heavy burden on his mind, Zhang Huaimin was in no mood to listen to Li Guifen's nagging. He got on his bicycle and headed towards Yangshu Hutong in the east of the city.

Zhang Huaimin rode his bike to the door of a house with a private courtyard and started knocking on it.

"Who is it? Coming, coming, stop knocking!" An impatient female voice came from the yard.

"I!" Zhang Huaimin said in a low voice.

The person who opened the door was a beautiful woman with a lingering charm. Seeing that it was Zhang Huaimin knocking on the door, she looked around nervously. Finding that no one was paying attention to this side, she pulled Zhang Huaimin over and pulled him into the yard.

"My darling, why did you come here in broad daylight? Aren't you afraid of being discovered?" The woman hit Zhang Huaimin in anger and complained in a low voice.

"Stop it, I have something serious to tell you!" Zhang Huaimin was in no mood to flirt with the woman at this time. He slapped the woman's hand away and said with a serious expression.

Seeing that Zhang Huaimin had a strange expression on his face, the woman realized that he was not in the mood to joke with her, so she also became serious.

"You're sweating all over. Come inside and have a drink of water. We can sit down and talk slowly about what's going on."

After Zhang Huaiming sat down and drank a large glass of water, he said to the woman, "There's a new director at the Red Star Food Factory. I'm afraid that what we're doing is going to cause some trouble."

"I think it's a big deal. Just come. The previous factory managers didn't find any problems. What are you afraid of?" The woman said indifferently.

"This time the situation is different. This factory director was parachuted in, and he's already acted drastically on his first day in office. He's no pushover."

Then Zhang Huaimin recounted several of Gu Qingyu's major actions today. The woman frowned after hearing it. This method was indeed powerful.

"Do you really think there's danger this time?"

"Just because we haven't had any problems in all these years doesn't mean we won't have any problems this time. Have you ever seen Accountant Wu approach a new factory director?"

"This old guy has been pretending to be deaf and dumb for so many years, why is it different this time?" Zhang Huaimin looked at the woman opposite and said in a deep voice.

"Then what do you want to do?" the woman looked at Zhang Huaimin and asked.

"Go find him and ask him to find a way to get Gu Qingyu away. Otherwise, if she finds out about our trick, we'll all be finished!"

"Is it really necessary to do this?" The woman said with some doubt. She felt that Zhang Huaimin was a little too nervous.

"It's necessary! If you don't go, I'll go find her and him myself!"

Seeing Zhang Huaimin's resolute attitude, the woman quickly leaned over to comfort him, saying, "Don't worry, I didn't say I wouldn't go. Just listen to my analysis first!"

"You know, he has a rule that if it's not something important, we can't go to him?"

"I'm saying, what if you made a wrong judgment? If we rush over and annoy him, wouldn't that be more trouble than it's worth?"

"How about this, let's first make sure the other party is really investigating us, and then we go find him, okay?"

"It's just a matter of getting rid of one person. It's a piece of cake for him. We can afford to put in a little effort, right?"

The woman's gentle analysis relaxed Zhang Huaimin's tense nerves. After thinking about it carefully, he felt that what the woman said made sense, so he was no longer in a hurry to urge her to find someone.

Speaking of Zhang Huaimin, he was a smart and capable man, which was why he was able to rise from a rural boy to the position of deputy director of the Red Star Food Factory.

When did he start to fall? It was from the moment he met this woman at a dinner party, and he fell into the quagmire step by step, unable to escape.

The woman's name is Yang Liu. On the surface, she is a young widow, but in fact, she is the biggest controller behind the Xinhu black market.

Zhang Huaimin met Yang Liu at a dinner party. He was first attracted by her beauty and became her lover. Later, he was tempted by her with benefits and was dragged into the relationship.

In addition to the reasons mentioned above, the main reason why Zhang Huaimin fell from grace so quickly was because of the big shot standing behind Yang Liu. Otherwise, he would not have been able to become the deputy director of the Red Star Food Factory so quickly.

But after Yang Liu comforted Zhang Huaimin and sent him out, he also left home in a hurry.

The reason why she said that just now was because she saw that Zhang Huaimin's mentality had collapsed. If she did not comfort Zhang Huaimin at this time, he would most likely do something irrational because of his mental breakdown.

You know, in her plan, with the fall of the two former leaders of the Red Star Food Factory, Zhang Huaimin would definitely be able to get one of the two vacant positions.

In this way, no matter which side takes the other position, they have the ability to restrain the other side at the Red Star Food Factory.

Now that Gu Qingyu was parachuted in, he occupied both positions at once, which completely suppressed Zhang Huaimin. The power balance was lost, which made Yang Liu wary of Gu Qingyu.

Secondly, it was because the bigwigs behind her had been slowly distancing themselves from her over the past two years. The more you use a relationship, the less it will last. Yang Liu felt that rushing to her for Gu Qingyu was neither worthwhile nor necessary.

The reason why Yang Liu has been able to stand firm in Xinhu for so many years is not only because of the support of the adults behind her, but also because of her ruthlessness and decisiveness.

Now that she knew that Gu Qingyu was a threat to her, Yang Liu felt that there was no need for this person to live beyond tomorrow, and she had to nip this danger in the bud.

Yang Liu hurried all the way, turning left and right, and arrived at the side door of a low house in the eastern suburbs of the city. Then she bent down and lifted the stepping stone at the door to reveal a small iron box.

Then Yang Liu took out a small yellow croaker and a piece of paper with Gu Qingyu's name on it from her pocket and put them into the iron box. She then pressed the iron box back down with stepping stones and made sure everything was back to normal. Then she turned around and left without hesitation.

Gu Qingyu is currently busy trying to pay off her debts in the conference room of the Red Star Food Factory, but she doesn't know that someone has already paid to buy her life!
