Chapter 224 Xu Damao has a rift with He Yuzhu
The next day, He Yuzhu had just arrived at the office, poured a cup of tea and was enjoying a moment of peace. Suddenly, Xu Damao rushed over, with a look of anxiety and dissatisfaction on his face.
"Shazhu, you don't know, Liu Lan in your kitchen..." Xu Damao was interrupted by He Yuzhu before he could finish his words.
"It's our kitchen." He Yuzhu frowned slightly and corrected. There was a hint of nonchalance in his tone, as if he was just explaining the difference between "us" and "you".
Xu Damao was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes, it's our kitchen. It was that Liu Lan who was finding faults yesterday, saying that Sister Qin didn't clean this and didn't wipe that. Didn't you see that Qin Huairu's hands were a little red and swollen because of her bullying?"
He Yuzhu's brows furrowed as he listened to Xu Damao's description. He knew Liu Lan's temper and Qin Huairu's personality, so he was not surprised at all that there was such friction between the two.
"Is the place Liu Lan pointed out dirty?" He Yuzhu asked in a deep voice. He looked directly at Xu Damao, as if looking for an answer, and also as if examining his honesty.
Xu Damao thought about what Qin Huairu said to him yesterday. Since she didn't say it wasn't dirty, it must be dirty. So he replied directly, "It is dirty, but I think it must have been dirty before. Liu Lan is just looking for trouble on purpose."
He Yuzhu nodded, his brows slightly furrowed, as if he was thinking about Xu Damao's words. He looked up at Xu Damao, with a bit of scrutiny and seriousness in his eyes.
"Since it's dirty, is there anything wrong with Liu Lan asking Qin Huairu to clean it?" There was a hint of questioning in He Yuzhu's tone, as if he was a little confused about the question.
Xu Damao was stunned by the question. He opened his mouth and wanted to explain, but was interrupted by He Yuzhu's next question.
"Also, why didn't Qin Huairu look for Squad Leader Zhao, but for you? Isn't this skipping the chain of command?" He Yuzhu's questions came one after another, catching Xu Damao off guard.
Xu Damao looked a little embarrassed. He hesitantly explained, "Well... Sister Qin may think that Zhao and Liu Lan have a better relationship than she does, so it's useless to tell her. She came to me because she thought I was fair and could give her some advice."
He Yuzhu looked at Xu Damao's embarrassed yet somewhat flattering expression, and felt helpless. He knew Xu Damao's character and the intention of his words. But he felt that the matter was not that simple and needed a deeper understanding before making a judgment.
So, he took a deep breath and tried to make his tone calmer: "Xu Damao, I remember I said that if you want Qin Huairu to work in the cafeteria, you have to keep her under control and don't cause trouble for the cafeteria. In this situation, how can you let me trust you?"
Xu Damao's face turned pale and blue at He Yuzhu's words. He was a little angry that He Yuzhu didn't give him face. But he also knew that he had indeed handled the matter improperly, so he had to bite the bullet and explain: "I... I will take good care of Sister Qin and won't let this happen again."
He Yuzhu looked at Xu Damao's somewhat unconvinced look, and felt even more helpless. He knew that in order to truly solve this problem, more communication and understanding were needed. But he also understood that he couldn't be too tough, otherwise it would only make things worse.
So, he sighed and softened his tone: "Okay, Damao, go back and think about it carefully." After that, He Yuzhu lowered his head and continued to drink tea, no longer paying attention to Xu Damao, and his intention to send him away was very obvious.
