Chapter 368 Chance Encounter
He Yuan turned his head and said, "You've only put it down for less than a minute."

Chen Qing felt awkward; she felt that sitting in the sun was a bit of self-torture.

He Yuxiang also found a place close to his uncle and stood there. He picked up a small ball of dark brown bait with his thumb and forefinger and hung it steadily on the hook tip.

With a light flick of the wrist, the fishing line drew a short arc.

With a soft 'plop', it stood firmly on the surface of the water, which was swirling slightly.

Xiao Yu asked, confused, "What should I do now?"

She didn't participate in the last fishing trip.

He Yuxiang glanced at his sister: "You can't sit still, just play however you want."

Xiaoyu saw everyone else fishing, so she followed suit. But she asked her brother to help her cast the line. Holding the fishing rod, she said, "Little fish, little fish, can you come up and play with me?"

"Oh my god!!! My fishing rod moved! My fishing rod moved!"

Xiaoyu was excited.

He Yuxiang quickly offered his help.

He Yuan also got up to help.

Chen Qing came to join in the fun, and looking at the carp that looked to weigh about two pounds, he exclaimed in surprise, "Xiao Yu, how did you catch a fish so quickly?"

She put it down for less than a minute!
unfair!
Are these fish discriminating against adults?

Xiao Yu exclaimed excitedly, "I don't know! It's my fish! It's my fish!"

Tian Mengya and Lin Chongping also came over to join in the fun. Seeing that Xiaoyu's fish was quite big, they were both very envious.

Xiaoyu suddenly felt the joy of fishing and was willing to fish seriously. She stared intently at the river surface, and after a while, when no fish took the bait, she pleaded, "Little fish, little fish, can you have a new friend to keep the little carp company?"

"Brother! Brother, come quick, I caught a fish!"

He Yuxiang: “!!!”

Is she casting a spell?

Were you a fish in your past life?

"I do not know."

Xiao Yu danced with joy.

He did a somersault to celebrate.

Next, Xiaoyu caught two more fish, He Yuan caught one, and the rest of the people caught nothing.

Soon, He Yuxiang caught one.

Immediately afterwards, Tian Mengya and Lin Chongping's fish also took the bait.

Chen Qing looked at the three fish in He Yuan's bucket and thought it was unscientific. Who could catch so many fish in just over an hour?

She has a friend who does lure fishing, and he often only catches one fish after fishing for half a day. How come the fish here bite so easily?
It made her so embarrassed.

After a morning of fishing, Chen Qing had caught nothing and decided she would never go fishing again: "I'm not cut out for fishing."

Tian Mengya laughed heartily: "I caught one!"

Xiaoyu: "I caught six!"

Chen Qing put his hands in his pockets.

She began to console herself: It's good that I didn't catch any fish, at least I don't have to carry a bucket.

The group walked towards the courtyard, with He Yuxiang intentionally trailing behind, because he saw a familiar person in the distance—Yang Yihe.

She sneakily climbed onto the roof.

Yang Yihe, who had climbed onto the roof, was wary of the people around her. Suddenly, she noticed He Yuxiang and kept making shushing gestures at him while wearing work gloves.

He Yuxiang noted down the location and, after returning home, told his aunt, "It's too hot, I'm going to buy popsicles for everyone."

"I don't know if this area is safe, you'd better not go."

To prevent children of employees' families from being kidnapped by human traffickers, the machinery factory's security department patrols the family area, and the street office is also vigilant against strangers. But she is unfamiliar with this place, so what if her child goes missing?
He Yuan: "I'll go with you, and we can also buy some groceries at the state-run restaurant while we're at it."

"alright."

Chen Qing gave him the money.

He Yuxiang hesitated for a moment, then went outside and said to his uncle, "Go buy something. I saw a classmate, I'll go say hello to her."

He Yuan: "The one on the roof?"

He Yuxiang was slightly surprised: "You saw it?"

“Your aunt and I have divided the work. She’ll watch Xiaoyu, and I’ll keep an eye on you.” He Yuan called to He Yuxiang, “Let’s go take a look.”

He Yuxiang frowned, but obediently followed his uncle's footsteps.

He Yuan led He Yuxiang around to the back of the house. Yang Yihe parted her lips slightly and made a shushing gesture at the two of them.

He Yuxiang thought to himself: "In this sweltering heat, she's lying on the rooftop. Isn't she afraid of getting burned to death?"

He Yuan led He Yuxiang to the window. He listened carefully and, upon hearing a sound from inside the room, immediately covered He Yuxiang's ears.

He Yuxiang: "???"

What's wrong, Uncle?

He tried to pull his uncle's hand off, but he wasn't as strong as his uncle and couldn't do anything.

Yang Yihe climbed down from the roof and waved to them.

He Yuan pondered for a moment and then followed with He Yuxiang.

He Yuxiang was completely confused.

Yang Yihe led them for about a hundred meters before saying, “A woman likes my dad and asked him to come here to keep her company. My stepmother thinks something is wrong with my dad and wants to follow him, but she has to go to work today, so she asked me to follow my dad.”

She explained the whole story.

He Yuxiang remembered his uncle covering his ears and asked, "So your father was having affairs?"

Yang Yihe nodded: "That's right."

"That……"

He Yuxiang got stuck.

He didn't know what to say either.

Because Yang Yihe seemed quite calm.

He Yuan asked, "Who is the woman inside?"

Yang Yihe: "Shi Lingyang, the next factory director of the machinery factory."

He Yuan had heard of it.

Factory Director Shen was determined to go to the Commerce Bureau and get into an important unit, and he succeeded, getting promoted very quickly.

Factory Director Shen said that Shi Lingyang is the next factory director. She is neither demoted nor promoted. To a large extent, she is using the machinery factory as a stepping stone.

She needs to have some achievements to show for it.

Only then can we proceed smoothly.

Now that Yang Xiujin and Shi Lingyang have joined forces, Yang Xiujin and Secretary Yang are in the same faction, and they both harbor resentment towards Chen Qing...

He Yuan said, "I'll take you two shopping. After we're done, we'll go eat. Let's go."

The two children followed him.

He Yuan quickly bought the food and went home. He said to Lin Chongping, "Please take care of the three children. If I see anyone we know, please say hello."

"Ah, okay, I'll save some food for you." Lin Chongping was incredibly skilled at taking care of the three children in his class.

Chen Qing followed He Yuan out, puzzled: "Where are we going?"

"I was eavesdropping." He Yuan recounted what had just happened.

Chen Qing was shocked: "Shi Lingyang as factory director?!"

"Ah."

"Is this considered a promotion or a demotion?"

"We came to help mainly because Deputy Factory Director Tian's abilities were not up to par. The new factory director has experience managing a machinery factory, so we let her work there," He Yuan explained.

Chen Qing: "I'm doomed."

That man already disliked her, and now he's having an affair with Yang Xiujin.

Oh wow.

It's finished.

The Party Secretary and the Factory Director have all been offended.

She can just wait to die.

Chen Qing felt utterly hopeless.

He Yuandao said, "Not necessarily. Secretary Yang and the new factory director don't get along."

Chen Qing didn't believe it: "How could that be? Isn't she having an affair with Yang Xiujin?"

He Yuan hesitated for a moment and said, "According to Director Shen, the new director used to be Secretary Yang's girlfriend, but the two broke up."

Chen Qing: "Holy crap!"

This news is truly explosive.
