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

Chapter 741 Becoming Deputy Director Li

The next morning, as soon as the sun shone into the courtyard, Lou Xiao'e walked into the courtyard with brisk steps. She went straight to Gu Nan and Ran Qiuye's residence, with a happy smile on her face, and said, "Qiuye, Gu Nan, my parents have made arrangements, and now everything is proceeding in an orderly manner according to your plan."

Gu Nan smiled with satisfaction after hearing this and said, "That's good, as long as everything goes well. Once everything is settled over there, you can go over there too. After all, the living conditions out there are better in every way."

Lou Xiao'e nodded and continued, "By the way, Gu Nan, my dad asked me to tell you that this time it's really thanks to you. Without your help, the business outside would never have been so smooth. To express his gratitude, he said that you will have 40% of the shares of these businesses in the future."

Gu Nan was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "Oh, my uncle and I were just joking, how could we really ask for shares. Besides, when my father-in-law and mother-in-law go to Xianghe, I will have to ask you to take care of them."

Lou Xiao'e also smiled and said, "Gu Nan, don't worry about you and Ran Qiuye. My father has already told me everything, and he will take good care of her. Besides, I won't go there for the time being. First, I want to spend some time with my goddaughter, who is so lovable. Second, I want to stay and see what Xu Damao wants to do. I know him too well, and he will definitely not give up so easily."

Gu Nan opened his mouth and wanted to say something to the people around him, but he caught a glimpse of the wall clock from the corner of his eye. The hour hand was about to point to the time for work. He thought to himself that this was not good. If he delayed any longer, he would be late for work.

Gu Nan hurried out of the house, and just as he reached the door, he saw Qin Huairu and Bang Geng standing not far away. He frowned slightly, feeling annoyed, and didn't want to pay attention to the mother and son in the first place, so he raised his foot and wanted to walk around them.

However, Qin Huairu seemed to have been prepared. She pulled Banggeng, lowered her head, and whispered, "Banggeng, you must behave well later. After all, you are still a child. When the time comes, you can feel wronged and cry. Gu Nan will feel sorry for you and probably won't say anything. Whether we can stay in the city depends on this time."

Bang Geng looked frightened after hearing this. He looked at Qin Huairu and whispered, "Mom, I'm scared whenever I see Gu Nan. He looks so fierce."

Qin Huairu was extremely anxious. She grabbed Banggeng's shoulders tightly and said, "Banggeng, this is your only chance. Think about it, if you are really sent to the countryside, it will be difficult for you to come back. You will have to live a hard life in the countryside, with nothing to eat and nothing to wear. Can you bear it?"

When Banggeng thought about being alone in the countryside without his mother to take care of him, he suddenly felt that life was dark and hopeless. Tears welled up in his eyes and he cried, "Mom, I'm going to kneel down for Gu Nan right now. I really don't want to go to the countryside. If I really go to the countryside, I don't know how I'm going to live."

After saying that, Qin Huairu pulled the stick and walked quickly to Gu Nan. When Gu Nan saw them, his face darkened and he said coldly: "A good dog doesn't block the road."

Qin Huairu was so angry that her teeth itched, but for Bang Geng's sake, she suppressed her anger, turned her head and looked at Bang Geng, urging him, "Hurry up and kneel down to your uncle Gu Nan, tell him that you have done wrong before, and beg him to forgive you."

Bang Geng was quite clever. He knelt down with a plop and said tearfully, "Uncle Gu Nan, everything I did before was wrong. I know I was wrong. Please forgive me."

Gu Nan looked at Bang Geng kneeling on the ground, shook his head helplessly, and said, "What does what you do have to do with me? Don't kneel blindly. Who is your uncle? I don't recognize him."

Banggeng was at a loss after hearing this and turned to look at Qin Huairu. Qin Huairu forced a smile and said to Gu Nan in a flattering way, "Gu Nan, it was indeed Banggeng who was ignorant and did the wrong thing before. You are a magnanimous man, so just treat him as an uncle and give him another chance. You can arrange Tiedan to work in the kitchen, and Banggeng is so close to you, so you should arrange Banggeng to work in the kitchen, right? Please be kind and help us."

Gu Nan looked indifferent. He shook his head again and said in a firm tone: "I've said it before, Banggeng is not a clean person. We will never want such a person in the kitchen. It's no use looking for me. If you want to kneel here, just kneel. It has nothing to do with me anyway." After that, he turned around and went to work without looking back, leaving Qin Huairu and Banggeng mother and son kneeling there in a daze.

Banggeng's face was full of anxiety and helplessness. He looked at Qin Huairu pitifully and said in a crying voice: "Mom, what should I do? I really don't want to go to the countryside. How can I live in the future?" At this moment, his legs softened and he knelt in front of Qin Huairu with a "thump", as if only in this way could his mother feel his inner fear and determination to stay.

Qin Huairu looked at Banggeng kneeling on the ground, feeling distressed. She hurried forward to help him up, and said with determination in her eyes: "Banggeng, you should get up first. It's still some time before we go to the countryside. Don't worry, I will definitely find a way to keep you here. In all these years, when have I ever let you suffer? This time is no exception. I will definitely not watch you suffer."

Banggeng felt a little relieved after hearing his mother's words, but he was still worried. He really couldn't think of what his mother could do, but he really had no other ideas, so he could only follow Qin Huairu back obediently. Along the way, his steps were as heavy as if they were filled with lead.

Gu Nan came to the steel mill as usual. As soon as he entered the factory, he saw Secretary Lin. Secretary Lin came over hurriedly and said, "Engineer Gu, the factory director wants to see you and is waiting for you."

Gu Nan nodded slightly, responded, and followed Secretary Lin to the factory director's office. As soon as he entered the door, Gu Nan politely asked, "Director, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Director Yang waved his hand, signaling Secretary Lin to go out. After Secretary Lin closed the door, Director Yang looked at Gu Nan with a serious expression and said slowly, "The situation has changed now, you know? Director Li may be coming back, and the higher-ups have issued a document. After he comes back, he will still be the deputy director of our steel mill."

Gu Nan really didn't expect that Director Li was so capable. The previous uproar had not been able to completely deal with him. Gu Nan frowned slightly, looked at Director Yang and asked, "Director, then... what should we do next?"
