Chapter 120 The storm is coming
"But……"

"I'm doing this for your own good. Our technical department is full of elites who are skilled and capable of fighting tough battles. Liu Siying dares to face up to responsibilities and has taken the initiative to ask to join Xu Qiang's project team. Are you worse than a female comrade?" Li Cunzhu said to He Wei with a frown.

Li Cunzhu was familiar with the psychology of the technical department staff and knew He Wei's feelings for Liu Siying, so he provoked him.

"Well... okay." Sure enough, after hearing what Li Cunzhu said, He Wei glanced at Liu Siying beside him, gritted his teeth and nodded.

"As for your application, Liu Siying, I hope you can think it over carefully. After all, it is very hard to participate in the development of two product projects at the same time. I will give you a reply in a few days." Li Cunzhu glanced at everyone and said, "Okay, that's all. Let's get busy."

The next moment, everyone dispersed.

"Chief Engineer Li, then my team..."

"Just wait for two more days, and I will definitely find a suitable candidate for you by then." Li Cunzhu said with a smile.

"Thank you very much."

"We are all here for work, I hope you understand."

After Li Cunzhu finished speaking, he patted Xu Qiang on the shoulder, then turned and left.

Xu Qiang and He Wei looked at each other, but no one said anything. They just turned around and walked away.

When they were in class, the two knew each other very well. He Wei looked down on Xu Qiang, and Xu Qiang also knew that the other party was an uneducated person and could not expect him to provide him with any technical help. It was impossible for the two to cooperate.

However, the final result of Xu Qiang's project team will not be known for two days. It is estimated that He Wei will find a way to withdraw. After all, his father is the head of the supply and marketing department and has a good relationship with Li Cunzhu, so Xu Qiang does not want to say anything more to him...

……

"Why do you work overtime every day? It seems like you're addicted to it. If it were me, I wouldn't want to stay in the office for even a minute longer."

It was already past the afternoon shift, and Lin Yueying sat opposite Li Siying's desk, talking boredly.

"I've been busy with work lately, and I don't want to do it." Liu Siying showed a helpless look, and she said, "Once this project is completed, we can return to normal."

"I don't care. Anyway, I have been with you for such a long time. You must go to the county town with me this Sunday and buy me some delicious food."

"Have you finished eating the several kilograms of melon seeds and peanuts you bought last time?"

"Ah."

"Okay, I'll buy you more this time." Liu Siying said with a smile.

"That's about right. Who makes your salary and bonus so much higher than mine? You don't spend much money anyway." Lin Yueying chuckled, and after a moment she said, "By the way, is Xu Qiang crazy? I heard that he went to Chief Engineer Li and signed a military order, insisting on developing a new product. You still want to help him. Aren't you afraid of being implicated by him?"

"What's involved? Our technical department is responsible for the technical research work of the factory. It's normal for me to help him." Liu Siying replied without raising her head. After a moment, she said, "Besides, Xu Qiang has skills. When he went to the province with my dad before, he was able to communicate with provincial experts face to face. It's amazing..."

"What? Don't you know that Xu Qiang's previous military-to-civilian conversion plan was copied? I said that he didn't even have as good academic qualifications as me, so how could he win an award in the factory?" Lin Yueying said with disdain.

"He copied the plan?" Liu Siying frowned when she heard this and said, "Is there any evidence? Even if there is evidence, Xu Qiang has made a great contribution to our factory by getting the plan approved by provincial experts. There is nothing to say."

"But……"

"Okay, let's go, it will be dark if we go any later."

After Liu Siying finished speaking, she sorted out the drawings on the table and left the office with Lin Yueying. As the two of them walked out of the office building and were about to leave on their bicycles, a tall man in a brand new white shirt came towards them.

"Xiaoying, why are you off work just now? I've been waiting for you for a while." The man glanced at his watch and then said with a smile: "I bought two movie tickets tonight for "Lush Mountain Love". If you have time tonight..."

Seeing this scene, Lin Yueying tactfully pushed the car aside and waited for Liu Siying from a distance.

"I'm very busy recently and really don't have time." Liu Siying replied indifferently, and then said: "Please don't come to see me in the future..."

Liu Siying knew the man in front of her. He was Li Weiguo, the son of chief engineer Li Cunzhu.

Last week, Li Cunzhu and his family visited the home of factory director Liu Biao, and it was the first time the two met.

As soon as he saw her for the first time, Li Weiguo's eyes never left Liu Siying. It was also the first time for him to see such a beautiful girl, so much so that Liu Siying felt very unnatural at the dinner table. Although they talked for a few words, they seemed to have no common topics of interest and they just had awkward conversations the whole time.

Li Weiguo did not seem to have inherited his father's talent for studying. He barely graduated from junior high school and later joined the army.

Although he became a volunteer soldier thanks to his father's connections, he did not follow the troops when the self-defense counterattack broke out in the south. Instead, he chose to retire and eventually joined the Victory Machinery Factory.

"Didn't your father say anything to you?" Li Weiguo frowned and asked, "Haven't our two families already agreed on this..."

"What does my business have to do with my dad?" Liu Siying still looked indifferent. She continued, "You're a good person. You'll definitely find someone more suitable..."

"But I think you're nice..."

People these days are relatively conservative, and the word "love" cannot be spoken lightly. Li Weiguo's intention is already very clear.

"I don't think we're a good match, so that's it."

After Liu Siying finished speaking, she rode away on her bicycle, leaving Li Weiguo standing there in a daze...

……

At the same time, Xu Qiang had just returned to the village after get off work when he was called to the village committee.

As soon as he stepped into the courtyard of the village committee, Xu Qiang felt something was wrong.

Outside the yard, there was a 212 jeep parked. Judging from the license plate number, it was obviously a car belonging to the factory security department.

The two people who called him here were two members of the village committee. They walked one after the other, sandwiching Xu Qiang in the middle, as if they were on guard against something. Apart from asking him to report to the village committee, they didn't say anything else.

"coming."

When Zhao Xigui, who was sitting in the village committee room facing the door, saw Xu Qiang coming, his eyes immediately lit up and he stood up.

"What do you want from me, village chief?"

As soon as Xu Qiang asked the question, he found that there were already several people sitting in the village committee room.

In addition to the village party secretary and a few acquaintances, Xu Qiang actually saw that the director of the town supply and marketing cooperative, Wang Zhong, was sitting next to Zhao Xigui!
When Wang Zhong saw Xu Qiang, he was also stunned for a moment, but the two of them just looked at each other and then looked away, and no one spoke...
