Siheyuan: I just came across and wanted to chase me away

Chapter 802: Deputy Director Gu Nancheng

Ran Qiuye was stunned for a moment after hearing this. Her mind seemed to go blank for a moment, as if she hadn't fully comprehended what Gu Nan had said. Then, like a flower blooming in spring, a brilliant smile blossomed on her face. That smile was like sunlight piercing through the clouds, illuminating the entire room. Her eyes were filled with surprise and pride, and as she looked at Gu Nan, they seemed to twinkle with stars.

Ran Qiuye looked at Gu Nan with a burning gaze, and with a hint of concern in her voice, she said, "Gu Nan, you're amazing! It's really not easy to achieve this. But you're taking on so many things now, aren't you a little too busy? I'm really worried that you'll exhaust yourself."

Gu Nan looked at Ran Qiuye tenderly, his eyes full of love, and said slowly: "Qiuye, actually I am no longer the canteen director."

Ran Qiuye's smile froze upon hearing this, replaced by a look of confusion. She frowned slightly, looked at Gu Nan, and asked anxiously, "What's going on? Why is he suddenly no longer the canteen director? Did something happen?" Her eyes were filled with worry, and she stared at Gu Nan closely, afraid to miss any details.

Seeing this, Gu Nan recounted everything Director Yang had said to him. He then looked at Ran Qiuye and explained earnestly, "The canteen director position has now been given to Zhong Yi. As you know, I'm a thorn in Deputy Director Li's side, and he won't let me off easily. So, I feel I need an official position to better handle any potential tactics he might employ."

After listening to Gu Nan's explanation, Ran Qiuye's doubts immediately dissipated. She nodded gently, her eyes full of understanding and support, and said, "I know what you're doing is right. You've always been very opinionated, so of course I support you. No matter what you decide, I'll stand by you."

After hearing what Ran Qiuye said, Gu Nan felt a surge of warmth in his heart. He gently embraced Ran Qiuye in his arms, holding her tightly, as if he wanted to melt her into his body. He whispered, "Qiuye, as long as you and Shiwan are well, happy and safe every day, that is my greatest blessing. I hope our family can stay together like this forever, never leaving each other." Ran Qiuye was in his arms, feeling his warmth and love, her heart filled with happiness.

Meanwhile, Deputy Director Li was finally rescued after a series of setbacks. After all, he still had some connections up there, and these connections came in handy at the critical moment.

Upon learning that Deputy Director Li had been rescued, Xu Damao rushed to him, his face filled with anxiety and fear. He looked at Deputy Director Li and cried, "Deputy Director Li, you can't leave! What will I do if you leave? I'm counting on you to get me out!" Xu Damao was filled with fear and helplessness at this moment. He knew that his current situation was entirely dependent on Deputy Director Li.

Deputy Director Li looked at Xu Damao's miserable appearance, forced a smile on his face, and comforted him, "Xu Damao, our relationship has always been good, don't worry. As long as I go back, I will definitely find a way to rescue you. Just stay here for now and don't cause any trouble."

Xu Damao listened to Deputy Director Li's words and wanted to say something, hoping to reassure him that he would be saved. But Deputy Director Li was already annoyed and didn't want to hear any more of Xu Damao's nagging. Without waiting for him to speak, he turned and walked away. In his mind, if it weren't for Xu Damao, a useless man who only caused trouble, he wouldn't be in such a predicament. So, he wasn't that concerned about saving Xu Damao and wasn't in a hurry.

Xu Damao watched Deputy Director Li's departing back, his heart pounding with anger and resentment. He secretly thought, if Deputy Director Li didn't save him when he returned, he wouldn't let it go. He would definitely do everything he could to ruthlessly punish Deputy Director Li. The worst that could happen was that everyone would die together, and no one would have a good life! His eyes gleamed with ferocity and determination.

The next morning, just as the sun rose, its rays bathed the earth. Gu Nan arrived at the steel mill early, as usual. Shortly after he entered the factory, the loudspeakers suddenly began to buzz, followed by a resounding voice: "All employees of the steel mill, please gather immediately in the central square for a general meeting."

He Yuzhu heard the announcement and was about to go out to gather. Coincidentally, he ran into Yi Zhonghai when he was leaving. He Yuzhu looked at Yi Zhonghai with a puzzled look and asked, "Uncle Yi, do you know what's going on? Why are we holding a factory-wide meeting at this time?"

Yi Zhonghai shook his head slightly, with a puzzled expression on his face, and said, "How can I know about this? But in my opinion, it should be related to Deputy Director Li. After all, when I came to work today, I saw Deputy Director Li come back with my own eyes. Maybe this matter is related to him." As the two talked, they walked towards the gathering place, their hearts full of curiosity and speculation about the upcoming factory-wide meeting.

After hearing some of the things, He Yuzhu couldn't help but sneer and said with disdain: "Hmph, a fool actually believed Xu Damao's nonsense. With his brain, he really should be arrested and reflect on himself." After saying that, he shook his head slightly, as if he was incredible about the man's stupidity.

Yi Zhonghai listened quietly on the side without saying anything. At this moment, he happened to see Gu Nan and Zhong Yi talking not far away. He only heard Gu Nan say: "Zhong Yi, you know that I am no longer the canteen director."

Zhong Yi frowned slightly, a look of worry on his face. He quickly shook his head and said, "Master, I'm afraid I can't do this. It would be better if you continue to take on the responsibility. I think the cafeteria will run better with you in this position. I'm still far from being able to do it."

Gu Nan smiled, patted Zhong Yi on the shoulder, and comforted him, "Okay, you're not young anymore, it's time for you to be independent. Besides, I still work at the steel mill. If you have any problems in the future, just tell me and I will definitely help you."

He Yuzhu was standing a little further away, so he couldn't hear their entire conversation clearly. After all, the distance was quite far, and the sound was a little blurry. But he still caught the key sentence: Gu Nan was no longer the canteen director.

He Yuzhu's eyes lit up, and he quickly moved closer to Yi Zhonghai and said excitedly, "Uncle Yi, did you hear that?"
