Siheyuan came through and sent Jia Zhang to prison

He Yuzhu looked at the security officer who had stopped him and immediately understood what was going on. He knew it was pointless to say anything more at this point, as it was their duty after all. He could only sigh helplessly and said to the security officer, "Search." He then handed over his lunch box.

The security personnel took the lunch box and opened it. It was empty. They immediately realized that they might have misunderstood He Yuzhu. A hint of embarrassment appeared on their faces. They looked at He Yuzhu and said, "Director He, I'm so sorry. It seems we really misunderstood you."

Although He Yuzhu was somewhat dissatisfied, he didn't want to make a big deal out of it. He looked at the security staff and said, "You have to explain this matter clearly to everyone. After all, this has a bad impact on my reputation. If it gets out, people will think I really did something sneaky."

The security staff thought He Yuzhu was right, so they took He Yuzhu's lunch box, turned to the surrounding workers, and said loudly, "Everyone, listen up! Director He Yuzhu didn't steal the vegetables at all. We just misunderstood him. Don't slander him anymore!"

After listening to the explanation from the security personnel, the workers felt that there was nothing more to say, so they dispersed in groups of three or four and went about their own business.

Qin Huairu, standing nearby, was deeply unhappy. She had expected He Yuzhu to be severely reprimanded by the security department, but not only was he not reprimanded, but there was nothing in his lunch box. This surprised her greatly, and she couldn't help but wonder: What's going on? Why did He Yuzhu suddenly stop stealing vegetables?

He Yuzhu had never expected that this seemingly unfortunate incident would actually become a good opportunity to prove himself in front of Director Yang. At this moment, Director Yang happened to walk over and saw this scene. He couldn't help but ask curiously: "Zhuzi, what happened?"

He Yuzhu quickly handed the empty lunch box to Director Yang and said with a look of grievance, "Director, you don't know, I usually have a habit of carrying my lunch box around after get off work. As a result, today people misunderstood me as stealing vegetables from the steel mill. I'm really wronged!"

Director Yang had heard rumors about He Yuzhu stealing vegetables, and he harbored a lingering suspicion. But after seeing this scene and hearing He Yuzhu's explanation, he understood that He Yuzhu had indeed been misunderstood. Director Yang patted He Yuzhu on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Zhuzi, a person with an upright character has nothing to fear. Just do your job well and have a clear conscience. Don't take it too personally. Do you understand?"

He Yuzhu nodded quickly, looked at Director Yang with gratitude, and said, "Director, I understand. Don't worry, I will pay more attention to my words and actions in the future and will not let others misunderstand me again." Director Yang smiled and turned to leave. He Yuzhu looked at Director Yang's back and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, he also warned himself in his heart that he would have to be more cautious in the future...

He Yuzhu wore a modest smile, bowed slightly, and took the lunch box from Director Yang. He said, "Director, I understand. I'll be leaving now." Director Yang looked at He Yuzhu, shook his head gently, and said with a gentle smile, "Why rush, He Yuzhu? I have an important social event tomorrow, so I guess I'll be home late tonight. You know what's going on. Make sure the cafeteria is properly arranged. Do you understand?"

He Yuzhu nodded hurriedly, his eyes revealing determination and confidence. He looked at Director Yang and said, "Director, don't worry. I will make sure that everything regarding the canteen is properly arranged and I guarantee that nothing will go wrong." After that, He Yuzhu turned and left.

Director Yang watched He Yuzhu's retreating figure, thinking to himself, "I had originally been skeptical about whether He Yuzhu was qualified for the position of director. After all, canteen management is no easy task. But after observing him for some time, especially after what happened today, it seems he does have some ability and responsibility. If he can arrange the catering for the social event perfectly tomorrow, I'll put him on the list for submission. Maybe he can bring some new life to the canteen."

Factory Director Yang had long been furious with the current canteen director. This director was known for his dishonest behavior, often enriching himself in purchasing ingredients and other matters, severely impacting the canteen's operations and the employees' well-being. Director Yang had long wanted to discipline him, but until now, he lacked solid evidence and felt he had no choice but to act cautiously. But now the situation was different. Director Yang had finally obtained evidence of his illegal activities. If he reported the matter to his superiors, they would surely take it seriously and send someone to investigate.

Even if the higher-ups didn't send anyone, as long as the factory gave up its support for the canteen director, Director Yang believed that with his connections and means within the factory, he would have plenty of ways to deal with him. Moreover, He Yuzhu's uncle, He Feng, was also a prominent figure within the bureau. Even if he used this connection, he could still make the canteen director suffer. Thinking of this, Director Yang's mood suddenly brightened, and a relieved smile appeared on his face.

He Yuzhu was feeling especially elated. He'd initially assumed he'd be criticized for some unfounded accusation against him by the factory director, and he'd mentally prepared himself for it. But to his surprise, not only wasn't he criticized, but he actually gained the director's trust and was given an important task. This was a blessing in disguise; how could he not be delighted?

He Yuzhu hummed a little tune and walked briskly back to the courtyard. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Qin Jingru who had just returned from get off work. Qin Jingru's eyes lit up when she saw He Yuzhu, and she hurried to greet him, saying coquettishly: "Brother Zhuzi, why are you so late? I've been waiting for you for a long time."

He Yuzhu smiled and deliberately raised his voice and said, "I don't know who reported me today, saying this and that about me. But you also know that I, He Yuzhu, am upright and a good person now. There won't be so many problems." He Yuzhu knew in his heart that Qin Huairu must be nearby. He said this deliberately for Qin Huairu to hear, just to see how Qin Huairu would react when he heard this.

Qin Huairu was in her room when she heard He Yuzhu's words. She felt a pang of fear. She knew that she had been behind the report and had thought that she could use this opportunity to make He Yuzhu suffer a little and maybe even get some benefits from him. However, she didn't expect that He Yuzhu had no evidence of greed and was caught. This made things difficult.
