Siheyuan: After becoming a traitor, first let the Huai Ru River overflow its banks.

"Grandpa, can I ask you something? Where does Qin Huairu live?"

Yan Bugui curiously pointed him in the right direction.

...

Jia family.

Banggeng, who had already finished school, ran quickly home.

"Grandma, Grandma, is dinner ready? I'm starving!"

Jia Zhangshi quickly took out the food that Qin Huairu had brought back.

"Alright, alright, I'm just waiting for my precious grandson to come back and eat."

Just then, Ma Sijiu and Li Weiguo came to the door and immediately spotted Banggeng.

Bang Geng was so frightened by the two of them that his legs trembled. He wanted to turn around and run away, but Ma Sijiu grabbed him by the collar.

Then, Ma Sijiu carried him out of the courtyard house like he was carrying a four-legged frog.

Realizing what had happened, Jia Zhangshi let out a howl and chased after them.

Unfortunately, she was too old to catch up with Ma Sijiu, but looking at the uniform Ma Sijiu was wearing...

He should be a member of the security department of Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill.

Jia Zhangshi chased after the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill like a madwoman, but the gatekeeper, Old Zhang, refused to let her in.

Enraged, Jia Zhangshi banged her head against the wall, threatening to kill herself.

Old Zhang realized the newcomer was up to no good and, fearing that his name would be revealed, dared not stop her any longer.

Jia Zhangshi ran ahead, with Old Zhang following closely behind.

It wasn't until Jia Zhangshi arrived at the second workshop and found Qin Huairu that Old Zhangtou realized she was Qin Huairu's mother-in-law.

"Huai Ru, hurry up, hurry up! Bang Geng has been arrested by your security department again."

Qin Huairu's vision went black, and she almost fainted.

"See? See? Didn't I tell you? I already said Li Jianjun wouldn't let Banggeng off the hook. Didn't you believe me?"

Jia Zhangshi was terrified and at a loss, because the scene where Ma Sijiu took away half of her was too violent.

"Huai Ru, you need to think of something quickly. Isn't it too late to say this now?"

Jia Zhangshi refused to admit that she was wrong, and even if she was wrong, she would not allow Qin Huairu to say anything to her.

"Mom, what can I do? I told you my plan yesterday, and you beat me up."

Even now, Qin Huairu still harbors resentment towards her mother-in-law, so she naturally doesn't hold back in her words.

Out of consideration for her beloved grandson being kidnapped, Madam Jia decided not to hold a grudge against Qin Huairu.

Although she may not be very bright, she can still distinguish between what is important and what is urgent.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. If it really doesn't work, let's do it your way and give it another try."

Jia Zhangshi was so frightened that she lost her composure and then prepared to have her daughter-in-law try to please Li Jianjun.

Whether it's her son being cuckolded or the Jia family losing face, none of that matters as much as her beloved grandson returning home safely.

Qin Huairu thought she was being sarcastic.

"Mom, I'm not going this time, so you won't scold me again."

Jia Zhangshi was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, but Qin Huairu ran away at the last minute, which made Jia Zhangshi curse loudly again.

"Qin Huairu, have I been too kind to you? When I need your help, you just keep making excuses."

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were standing at the entrance of the second workshop, speaking very loudly. Qin Huairu was afraid that others would come and hear what they were saying.

"Fine, fine, I promise you. Now you should go home."

Only then was Madam Jia relieved.

Here, Ma Sijiu and Li Weiguo brought the stick back to the security office.

Upon seeing the gate of the security office, Banggeng was so frightened that he almost peed himself, and the urine flowed down his pants.

"Li Jianjun, please spare me. Uncle Li, Brother Li, I call you grandpa, please let me go."

Bang Geng was clearly terrified of being beaten, and it was making random noises.

Ma Sijiu and Li Weiguo each lit a cigarette, and looking at the stick still thrashing about in the corner, they directly advised him to save his energy.

"With so many people reporting you, why wouldn't you be allowed to stay in your courtyard if you weren't arrested?"

Banggeng was stunned.

"What? What are you saying? Who reported me? I'm innocent, I'm innocent!"

Ma Sijiu grew impatient.

"Don't waste your time. Director Yang has personally ordered your arrest. Even if the King of Heaven himself came, he wouldn't let you go this time."

Ma Sijiu's words completely extinguished Banggeng's hopes. He stopped howling and shouting, and sat blankly on the stool.

Li Jianjun came over with a cigarette in his mouth, and Ma Sijiu and Li Weiguo reported to him.

"Jianjun, the man has been brought over. But this kid is probably terrified."

Li Jianjun nodded.

"Tie him up and start the interrogation. Verify each of the allegations one by one."

"Give me the interrogation records later."

Li Jianjun didn't want to participate in such a lengthy interrogation process, or the investigation and evidence collection process.

Meanwhile, having accepted the assignment, Liu Lan visited Director Li's home once.

Director Li sent his daughter and wife away, leaving only him and Liu Lan in the end.

After only teaching half of the lesson, Director Li started using inappropriate language and actions, which annoyed Liu Lan.

Inside the restroom, Liu Lan and Xiao Li were talking quietly.

"Sister Lan, I told you so. This Director Li has no good intentions."

Liu Lan was filled with regret.

"I thought he would give me two yuan a day so I could earn some extra money. I never expected that Director Li would actually be after me."

Just thinking about Director Li's old face gave Liu Lan goosebumps all over her body.

In particular, when Liu Lan was teaching him how to cook, Director Li touched her arm intentionally or unintentionally, which made Liu Lan very disgusted.

That old geezer really wants to have an affair with a young girl.

If it weren't for the fact that he was her boss, Liu Lan would have turned on him on the spot.

"Sigh, Sister Lan, there's no such thing as a free lunch."

Liu Lan sighed.

"If only we could find a way to pass this task on to someone else."

"That old bastard Director Li is really vengeful; we can't afford to offend him easily."

Xiao Li was also worried about her.

"I doubt many people besides men would be willing to do this job."

The two people occupied the toilet, taking advantage of the fact that no one else was around, and spoke without any restraint.

At that moment, Li Jianjun happened to be in the toilet and overheard the whole story.

"That old fox, Director Li, I never expected him to set his sights on Liu Lan."

This is not surprising. In the original TV series, Liu Lan was intimidated by Director Li's tyranny, which is why she hooked up with him.

Now that Li Jianjun has taken a liking to Liu Lan, he is determined not to allow this situation to happen.

In his previous life, Li Jianjun was a culinary expert who had learned to cook in his spare time and whose skill level far surpassed that of an amateur.

Teaching someone to cook is a piece of cake.

The key point is that Li Jianjun knows that Director Li's daughter, Li Ying, studied in the Soviet Union, speaks fluent Russian, and is, most importantly, beautiful.

Moreover, Director Li's wife was a famous beauty of that era, from a wealthy family, and had a very good temperament.

At that time, Li Jianjun will teach the mother and daughter how to cook...

With that in mind, Li Jianjun made up his mind to teach Director Li's wife and daughter how to cook instead of Liu Lan.

Li Jianjun deliberately lingered in the restroom a little longer. When he heard the person next door get up, he quickly tidied himself up and went over ahead of time.

As soon as I stepped out of the restroom, I ran into Liu Lan and Xiao Li.

After listening to their conversation, Li Jianjun immediately had an idea.

"Comrade Liu, I'm very sorry, I heard your conversation just now. But I didn't mean to."

Li Jianjun frankly explained what had just happened.

Liu Lan wasn't too surprised to run into Li Jianjun here. The key was that the man was so open about admitting that he had heard what was going on, which made Liu Lan like him even more.

"Comrade Li, please don't tell anyone about our conversation. I'm afraid Director Li..."

Li Jianjun patted his chest and guaranteed.

"Don't worry, Comrade Liu, I won't reveal a single word of what you just said."

"Besides, didn't you want to turn down this job? I can help you with that."

Liu Lan was overjoyed.

However, with people coming and going in front of the toilet, it's ultimately not a place to talk.

"How about we go over there and talk about it?"

Li Jianjun suggested.
