Refusing to marry a widower, I went on a crazy spree of sending my children to the army.

Chapter 142 Oh my god, is this some kind of staged accident?

Qiao Manman had no interest in the secretary position, so she became much more humble, lest Secretary Zhang hold a grudge and try to trip her up.

However, Qiao Manman was overthinking it.

Secretary Zhang is a good person. He didn't feel that Qiao Manman was stealing his thunder at all. On the contrary, he was very grateful to her for stepping forward in the crisis.

After taking the letter from Director Miao and reading its contents, he praised, "Comrade Xiao Qiao is born to be a secretary!"

"Factory manager, look at her! Her writing skills are even better than mine!"

Miao Shoujun nodded with a smile, but he didn't think Qiao Manman could replace Secretary Zhang at all.

Well, many people these days have prejudices, thinking that women should be subordinate to men.

Anyone in a high position, except those with exceptionally strong backgrounds, is bound to be tainted by romantic affairs.

Just like yesterday, those people asked Qiao Manman, wasn't it because they felt that he and she had an improper relationship?

Miao Shoujun introduced Qiao Manman's achievements so seriously, both for her sake and to vindicate himself.

Qiao Manman returned to her office, crossed her legs, and smugly stretched her arms and legs.

Zhang Shuhan asked her how she felt about the meeting, and Qiao Manman chuckled and said, "I'll recommend you next time I have the chance!"

Anyway, she didn't want to go anymore.

Zhang Shuhan laughed awkwardly: "Okay, I'll go check it out too!"

Soon, it was time to eat.

Qiao Manman skipped to the cafeteria, and just as she was about to line up, she was bumped by Shi Meng.

"What are you doing? Are you blind?" Shi Meng accused him first.

Qiao Manman ignored her, found some itching powder from her treasures, scooped out a tiny amount (about the size of a mung bean), and flicked it onto Shi Meng's hand.

He thought to himself how kind he was, doing something bad by only giving her such a small amount of medicine.

That's really too kind.

Qiao Manman switched to another line, and the woman in front of her smiled and said, "Little Qiao, you can go ahead of me!"

"Yes, Xiao Qiao, you come ahead of me!"

Many people noticed Shi Meng's underhanded tactics, and while they despised her, they also felt sorry for Qiao Manman.

Qiao Manman smiled and politely declined, "It's okay, brother and sister. I'm not going home for lunch, so it's fine to wait in line a little longer."

"Hey, come on over, or you'll miss out on meat!"

Qiao Manman was grabbed by a large hand and pulled forward. Before she could even react, the head chef had given her a box of braised pork.

Seeing that she had a little more braised pork than the others, Qiao Manman quickly took out her money and paid the bill.

After thanking the chef, she bowed to the comrade who had been cut in line by her.

Just then, the itching powder kicked in.

Shi Meng's hands burst with intense itching. She scratched and scratched, but the more she scratched, the itchier it became.

Qiao Manman thought that at most she was just itching to do something and that she could just bear it.

Unexpectedly, Shi Meng's arm swelled up while she was scratching, and red rashes appeared all over her body: "Ah, it's so itchy, so itchy!"

As he spoke, he leaned against Qiao Manman.

Qiao Manman was shocked and quickly moved aside. Shi Meng fell to the ground with a "bang".

"Holy crap, is this some kind of staged accident?"

In his mind, he was actually shouting to the system: "System, what's going on? Will someone die?!"

"No, no, don't worry, host. At most, it will make her itchy for a day and a night, and it won't affect her health."

Qiao Manman shuddered, feeling a deep sense of cruelty.

She felt uncomfortable even from a mosquito bite. Shi Meng, on the other hand, was bitten by an entire mung bean-sized amount of itching powder.

"Ha, that's awesome!" Afraid of being clung to by Shi Meng, Qiao Manman grabbed her lunchbox and ran off.

Back in the office, I breathed a sigh of relief, opened my lunchbox, and swallowed hard at the aroma of braised pork.

Qiao Manman ate a bite of braised pork and a bite of rice, then another bite of braised pork and a bite of shredded potatoes. Oh my, this life is so wonderful.

After finishing my meal, I walked out of the office, looked around to make sure no one was there, and then took out a box of watermelon to cleanse my palate.

The mutated watermelon is sandy and sweet, with hardly any seeds, bursting with sweet juice, and is super delicious.

After you finish eating, wipe your mouth and then ventilate the office.

Then Shi Meng's parents rushed over; one sat on the ground crying, and the other was yelling for the factory to pay them compensation.

Neither of them mentioned taking Shi Meng to see a doctor.

Shi Meng was already rolling around on the ground, itching so badly.

A kind colleague, fearing she might scratch herself, tied her hands with a rope.

Shi Meng couldn't scratch it, so she twisted into a caterpillar on the ground.

Qiao Manman shuddered, getting goosebumps all over her body.

She hurriedly went back and closed the door, but her parents still wouldn't let her go.

After failing to extort money from the cafeteria, they heard from someone that their daughter had a conflict with Qiao Manman.

Now they have another target for extortion.

Qiao Manman was not afraid of the two men's "provocation" at all, and kicked them out of the office with one kick each.

Just then, her colleagues came to work, and Qiao Manman called out, "Comrade Zhang Shuhan, could you please go and call the security department?"

Tell them that some thugs attacked the factory workers.

Zhang Shuhan nodded and jogged to the security office to call for help.

Not long after, two veterans dragged Mr. and Mrs. Shi out.

"Who is this person, trying to scam me!"

Qiao Manman rolled her eyes, thanked Comrade Zhang, and said, "Well, I'm going to check on Comrade Shi Meng. Having parents like these is really unlucky!"

"Xiao Qiao is truly magnanimous, repaying evil with kindness."

Qiao Manman smiled and left, not caring much.

The union members then placed Shi Meng on a discarded door panel, preparing to carry her to the hospital.

Qiao Manman feigned concern for a few words before heading straight to the workshop.

Calling out Comrade Cheng Guosheng to continue building scooters, Comrade Cheng looked at Qiao Manman with a complicated expression: "Little Qiao, I heard about what happened yesterday."

I'm so sorry..."

"What's it to you? It was Shi Meng who maliciously seized the fruits of others' labor."

Comrade Cheng Guosheng, you should know that the scooter we are currently developing has been put on the agenda by the leadership, and we need to produce the finished product as soon as possible.

If the finished products perform well, we will research new products in the future to create new economic growth points for the machinery factory.

We must strictly protect the research data and severely punish Comrade Shi Meng for stealing the results of others' work.

Only in this way can the machinery factory have a bright and clean future!

Qiao Manman spoke righteously and sternly, repeatedly dragging Shi Meng out to whip her corpse.

Cheng Guosheng didn't understand the meaning, but he grasped the importance of the matter.

Nodding, he said, "Okay!" He then followed Qiao Manman to the laboratory.

The two men left the door wide open, refining the details. They then began making the wheels according to the dimensions in the blueprints.

Time flies, and it's almost time to get off work.

Qiao Manman rode her bicycle to the hospital, glanced at Shi Meng who was in great pain, and asked, "Little Tongzi, is there an antidote for the itching powder?"

"Some hosts require 100 points to redeem. Does the host wish to help Comrade Shi Meng relieve her pain?"

"How could that be! I was just worried I might accidentally get it on myself, so I asked you beforehand!"

100 points, why would she waste them on someone who harbors ill will towards her? She's not an idiot.

The system breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, host. The system suggests that you spend your points on things that can increase your merits!"

Qiao Manman raised an eyebrow and took out one hundred yuan from the system, putting it into an envelope.

After changing his appearance, he arrived at the welfare home and said, "Hello, this is a small token of my appreciation for the children."
