This acquaintance was Li Xiang. Cai Anan hurriedly waved at Li Xiang and instructed the boss to order another bowl. Li Xiang saw her and walked over.
Li Xiang seemed to have changed into a different person after not seeing him for a few days. His beard was unshaven and his face was a little haggard.
However, he was very happy to see Cai Anan. He took out a paper bag from his pocket and placed it on the table." Xiao Cai, I finally met you. A few days ago, I paid the remaining money from the finance department, but you didn't come to look for me. This money has been with me all this time. Hurry up and count it, right?"”
"Brother Li, what are you talking about? What's our relationship?”Cai Anan picked up the paper bag on the table and put it into her handbag without even opening it.
After putting the money away, she asked,"Brother Li, you don't look well. Did something happen?"”
Cai Anan had a conscience. Li Xiang was the first benefactor she had met. If it weren't for his help, she wouldn't have been able to earn money so quickly. Therefore, if Li Xiang really met with trouble, she would definitely help him if she could.
Who knew that Li Xiang would laugh bitterly,"It's just a small matter in my family. I won't say it out loud to ruin the atmosphere."”
Cai Anan didn't want to ask in detail. If she didn't say anything, she must have her reasons. Perhaps she had a conflict with her wife. Which man would want to show off such a thing outside?
Li Xiang ate a big bowl of mutton offal soup. Cai Anan wanted to ask for another bowl for him, but he refused."Xiao Cai, you're a straightforward person. It's a compliment to call me brother. I've long seen that you'll soar up sooner or later.”
"Brother Li, I hope you say something good!" Cai Anan was influenced by Li Xiang's words and downed a glass of water instead of wine.
After parting ways with Li Xiang, Cai Anan and Zhou Jin went to the canning factory and took the tractor back to Pony Village.
What she didn't know was that as soon as she left, a woman jumped out from the corner of the wall and tugged at Li Xiang's clothes, cursing,"Li, I was wondering why you were acting weird these days. So you really have a vixen outside! Tell me the truth, how long have you been hooking up with this vixen!”
Li Xiang looked around and said in disgust,"Can't you keep your voice down? This place is very close to the factory and we can meet acquaintances at any time.”
The woman became even more arrogant." Oh my, now you know how to be shameless. Why didn't you think about where to put your face when you hooked up with a vixen?!" I'll speak louder and let everyone in your factory know what kind of face you have!”
"I already told you that my relationship with Xiao Cai is purely professional. It's not what you think!”
"Yo, Little Cai, Little Cai, you call me so affectionately. Li, don't pretend to be ignorant here! If you had nothing to do with her, why would you abandon the logistics director and go to the workshop to carry a big bag for her? Also, did you steal money from the house and give it to that little vixen? I counted just now. There's 300 yuan missing from the house!”
"I earned all the money at home. I have the freedom to spend it however I want.”
The woman was angered by Li Xiang's attitude. She was so angry that she raised her hand and slapped her mouth.
Li Xiang was hit hard, and his mind became much clearer.
The last time he had a meal with Cai Anan at a state-owned restaurant, the factory manager's wife, Li Li, had bumped into him. When Zhao Xiaoli got home, she had whispered in the factory manager's ear that he had accepted Cai Anan's benefits before agreeing to send pears to the factory, and the price was very high.
In Zhao Xiaoli's words, a rotten pear that no one wanted was not worth that price! Li Xiang was using his position to help Cai Anan get in through the back door and scam the factory!
Not only did Zhao Xiaoli give Li Xiang a sh * t basin, but she also urged Li Qunguo to personally step forward and remove Li Xiang's position as the logistics director and let him go to the workshop to carry cotton bales.
Not only that, but the pear payment that the factory owed Cai Anan was also seized. They said that the pear payment would only be paid when the matter was investigated.
Li Xiang had worked in the factory for many years and knew that they were deliberately making excuses. They probably wouldn't be able to get the pear back. After working together for so long, Li Xiang admired Cai An 'an's hard work, but he also sympathized with her because she was from the countryside and married a fool. Li Xiang could not say that she could not pay the rest of the money.
Therefore, he took some money from his family to pay for it. He thought that if the factory settled the balance in the future, he would take the money home.
Li Xiang knew that he didn't push the blame to Cai Anan because he didn't accept Cai Anan's benefits like Zhao Xiaoli said.
Pears were not worth much, and Cai Anan did not need to give him hundreds of gifts just for a few pears. He had only taken two boxes of cigarettes from the beginning to the end.
If taking two boxes of cigarettes could be considered a bribe, then wouldn't lighting up a cigarette when friends meet each other also be considered a bribe?
Li Xiang firmly believed that he did not do anything against his principles. He was just unlucky and happened to run into Zhao Xiaoli.
