Courtyard House: A Great Musician! Red Songs Resound Worldwide

"Yes, I'm back," Li Chaoyang replied and walked inside, but then stopped and asked.

"Deputy Section Chief Qian, is the application report ready?"

Qian Jiadong seemed to have been prepared, and immediately took out two documents from the book tucked under his arm and handed them over.

"I wrote it down a long time ago, and I was just waiting for you to come back and take a look."

Li Chaoyang took it and casually flipped through it.

To be honest, Qian Jiadong's handwriting is quite elegant and graceful.

It seems that from now on, tasks such as drafting reports and writing notices for bulletin boards can be entrusted to him.

While pondering the matter in his mind, Li Chaoyang finished reading the two documents in his hand and nodded.

"That's good, you've basically covered all the points that needed to be mentioned."

"Thank you for your hard work, Deputy Section Chief Qian."

"Of course, of course. From now on, you can assign me any writing or calculation work you need to do."

"I guarantee it will be done quickly and well for you... so you can use it right away."

Qian Jiadong adopted an extremely humble attitude.

Li Chaoyang smiled and nodded, "Okay..."

"If there's nothing else, I'll go upstairs now."

"After I see what my comrades suggest, I'll have to go to the factory manager for his signature."

As he spoke, Li Chaoyang was about to go upstairs.

But then Qian Jiadong stopped him somewhat nervously: "Section Chief... there's something else..."

"Li Chaoyang frowned slightly and asked.

"It's like this, Section Chief. You asked me to move into the office in the back room, but I saw that your office will take a few more days to be cleaned up."

"I took the liberty of saving it for you to use first."

"I'll move in after everything's settled in your office..."

Li Chaoyang smiled and shook his head. This Qian Jiadong was quite good at handling things.

They even knew to make room for their boss in the office first.

Judging from his shy and nervous appearance, he probably hasn't done these things before.

That's true. If he had been this sensible earlier, he probably wouldn't have been neglected by Director Liu in the factory office...

Thinking about all these things, Li Chaoyang nodded and said, "Okay, I'll use your office for now."

"I'll make room for you once I've finished getting things sorted out on my end."

"Okay, Section Chief, I've already collected all the office supplies for you."

"The locks have been changed, here's the key..." Qian Jiadong handed over the key with a smile.

That expression... it looked just like a Japanese interpreter's...

Li Chaoyang took the keys without any qualms and went upstairs with the two documents.

The various groups in the propaganda department were still discussing the tasks assigned by Section Chief Li that morning.

After all, this was the first official task assigned by Section Chief Li since he took office.

Everyone wanted to come up with a plan that would impress the section chief and make the leader treat their department differently.

Especially the few people in the propaganda team, they were all sticking to their own opinions and almost started arguing.

In the noisy office, most people didn't notice Li Chaoyang coming in.

It wasn't until he entered the inner room that anyone realized someone had just come in.

When Zhang Chaohua saw Li Chaoyang's back, he stopped discussing and looked around mysteriously.

Then, they approached the door of the inner office.

"Tuk-tuk-tuk."

"Come in." Li Chaoyang had just entered the room and hadn't even had a chance to sit down when he heard someone knocking on the door.

When the others came in, they saw that it was Zhang Chaohua from the film projection team.

Seeing his timid and hesitant demeanor, Li Chaoyang asked curiously, "What's wrong, Zhang Chaohua? Is there something you need to report?"

"Section Chief..." Zhang Chaohua hesitated slightly before speaking again.

"Last night after get off work... I followed your instructions..."

"I went to visit Xu Damao."

Upon hearing this, Li Chaoyang's expression became somewhat strange. "You went there last night?"

So, this kid isn't going to witness some exciting show, is he?

After thinking for a moment, Li Chaoyang asked calmly, "How is he?"

"Was there anything unusual when you... visited him?"

"Section Chief..."

"I..." Zhang Chaohua stammered.

She seemed so nervous that she could hardly speak...

Li Chaoyang felt that this person was increasingly strange.

Why did he come to my office and then get so nervous?

Could it be that they really saw something?

Li Chaoyang frowned slightly and asked, "Did you see something last night?"

Chapter Fifty-Four: Section Chief, I didn't see anything!

"No, no, no, Section Chief, I didn't see anything!" Zhang Chaohua suddenly became nervous.

But this only made Li Chaoyang more certain that the kid must have seen him beating up Xu Damao last night!

Li Chaoyang's eye twitched involuntarily.

To be honest, he's a little embarrassed right now.

Beating up Xu Damao wasn't a big deal; he wasn't afraid of being seen.

But if the person you see is one of your own subordinates, that's a different story.

Besides, I haven't known these subordinates for very long.

Seeing what happened last night, and then vividly recounting it in the office...

Well, won't these subordinates outside think I'm a violent maniac?

And what's with this kid looking so nervous right now?

I didn't see him last night, so why don't I just pretend I don't know anything?

This thing is really a bit inexplicable.

Is he trying to threaten me with this?

Li Chaoyang, who always assumed the worst of people, couldn't help but become suspicious.

Moreover, Zhang Chaohua's actions were indeed a bit strange.

After thinking it over, Li Chaoyang asked with a somewhat unfriendly expression, "So what brings you here?"

"Section Chief, I just wanted to tell you..."

“I didn’t see anything last night…” Zhang Chaohua said hesitantly.

"Okay, got it. Remember to close the door when you leave, thanks!" Li Chaoyang rolled his eyes at the man's dawdling. What kind of nonsense was this? He didn't even see anything last night...?

Is he trying to tell me he won't talk nonsense?

Isn't that stupid? It would be better to just pretend nothing happened than to barge in and make some random statement now, right?

Li Chaoyang felt that this person seemed to have something wrong with his brain.

But as Li Chaoyang watched Zhang Chaohua's retreating figure, he suddenly remembered Sha Zhu, who had acted strangely in the small canteen earlier. "Wait a minute."

Li Chaoyang called out to him again.

Zhang Chaohua, somewhat dazed, turned around again and asked, "Section Chief... is there anything else?"

Li Chaoyang, however, ignored the question and asked, "Chaohua, do you know He Yuzhu from our company cafeteria?"

"I know him, Section Chief. I saw it with him last night..." Zhang Chaohua answered casually, but then suddenly paused, as if startled awake, and stopped speaking, his eyes becoming somewhat tense.

Seeing his expression, Li Chaoyang immediately understood what had happened when he hit Xu Damao last night.

This guy in front of me is probably hiding in some corner of the backyard with Sha Zhu, watching the show!

No wonder these two are acting so strangely today.

It seems that Sha Zhu is subtly trying to curry favor with me. Is it really because I beat up Xu Damao in public?
