Teacher, spare me / Construction site encountered obstacles / Reading pavilion

  Fang Dongchen submitted his resignation after returning to the planning department from Lu Zhouyue's office. The planning manager was so shocked that he almost fell off his chair, and when he came back to himself, he went forward and grabbed Fang Dongchen's hand, trying to persuade him to stay with a heavy heart.

  "Dong Chen, why are you suddenly resigning? You just collaborated with Secretary Xu to design an outstanding building! I'm about to retire and the position of project manager will be yours sooner or later!"

  The planning manager didn't mention her name and that was fine, but as soon as he did, he felt a dull ache in his heart. He looked down, suppressing the sadness in his eyes, and apologized.

  "Manager, thank you for your kindness towards me all this time. I'm really sorry, I've let you down!"

  The planning manager started yelling.

  "You little rascal, what's wrong with you? You've always been doing well, how could you go to the rooftop and come back wanting to quit? No way, I won't agree!"

  Fang Dongchen just stood there silently with his head down, and the planning manager carefully observed the expression on his face and asked tentatively.

  "I said you wouldn't be heartbroken, would you? Did Secretary Xu reject you?"

  Dong Chen is indeed an excellent planning talent, Shen Yuan has always been fond of talents, and this is also one of the moldable talents he has cultivated with great difficulty. Therefore, the planning manager made a great effort to retain him, not wanting such a talented person to flow out.

  Fang Dongchen smiled bitterly, what hurt more than her rejection was the man's blatant declaration of war. He glanced at the planning manager and forced himself to utter a few words,

  "I suppose..."

  He's considered it a calculation because he never formally dated her and didn't have anything to lose, yet he secretly pined for her all these years.

  The planning manager was so angry that he picked up a book and hit him when he said that.

  "Is this all you're capable of? Can't live without a woman?"

  "I'm sorry, sir, I really am, but whether you agree or not, I have to leave!"

  His rare stubbornness was not that he was willing to give up his promising career prospects, but rather that he really didn't have the courage to stay on.

  The planning manager stared blankly.

  "Alright, but I need to report to the HR department and Director Lu first. If they approve it's okay, however, I think you won't be able to leave for a while, after all, you're also in charge of that project. I estimate that at the earliest, you'll only be able to leave after that project is completed!"

  Fang Dongchen didn't say anything, he just slightly furrowed his brow and walked out of the planning manager's office.

  As the project manager said, his resignation was not approved because he had to take charge of that project before leaving. He had no choice but to muster up his spirit every day and put all his experience into that project, using the busy work to numb his emotions.

  Because the N city government attaches great importance to this project, the allocation of funds is also very smooth. After the funds are in place, they will be invested in the tense construction. And since that day on, he began to avoid Xu Liuwei, Xu Liuwei didn't know that his feelings for her could date back to high school, so she felt sad about his sudden coldness and warmth.

  After the construction started, as one of the designers, she had to go to the construction site to check the building quality. However, as a girl alone going to such a chaotic place was really scary for her. Under helplessness, she called Fang Dongchen.

  She was faintly rejected by him as soon as she explained her intention on the phone.

  "Secretary Xu, let's just have us men handle this kind of thing. Don't worry, I'll take responsibility and keep a close eye on it!"

  She was in a hurry

  "Dong Chen, as a designer yourself, you must also know that every designer hopes to see their designs take shape with their own eyes!"

  Fang Dongchen fell silent, she sighed and continued speaking.

  "Dong Chen, if my married status has hurt you, then I'm sorry. But no matter what, I've always treated you as a friend. You've been avoiding me like this, and it really hurts..."

  She thought Fang Dongchen refused to let her go to the construction site because he didn't want to see her, but in fact, Fang Dongchen refused because the construction site was indeed too chaotic, with all sorts of large machinery everywhere, and if you weren't careful, you would bump into something.

  Now hearing her say this, he had no choice but to agree.

  "Then you go ask Mr. Lu and see when it's convenient for me to take you to the construction site!"

  The man agreed to let her go, and he wouldn't have any more objections. After all, they were now a couple with one heart.

  "Thank you!"

  She happily said thank you and hung up the phone.

  He went to his office and asked him about going to the construction site, but he was strongly rejected without hesitation. Lu Zhouyue's reason was of course the same as Fang Dongchen's, that kind of place is not suitable for girls.

  Xu Liu Mei was very depressed

  "What's wrong with you guys? This one doesn't allow that, and that one doesn't allow this. As an architect, if I don't personally go to the construction site to check, then what am I doing as a designer?"

  Lu Zhou saw that she was unhappy and stretched out his hand to hold her in his arms, furrowing a pair of handsome eyebrows and sighing.

  "You're really making me love and hate you at the same time, I want to let you achieve your dreams, but I don't want you to go to such a dangerous place every day, Liang Yu, what should I do with you?"

  Xu Liu'er knew he was also thinking of her safety, and she felt moved while compromising in her heart.

  "I don't go there often, I'll just go this once and then wait until it's finally completed to take another look, okay?"

  Lu Zhouyu can only agree, what else can he do? In fact, the interaction between men and women is like this, it's not necessarily about who has the upper hand, as long as they respect each other, understand each other, and know how to tolerate each other, that's enough.

  Xu Liu'er and Fang Dongchen went to the construction site, where a special person was assigned by the contractor to accompany them on an inspection. The site was uneven and littered with all sorts of things, and Xu Liu'er nearly fell over several times, but was caught each time by Fang Dongchen. She thanked him gratefully, but he just turned away indifferently.

  When they glanced at a rather inconspicuous part of the adjacent auxiliary building, Xu Liu and Fang Dongchen simultaneously discovered a problem - they had originally designed four pillars to support the entire building, but in reality, they only saw three. Without thinking, they were sure that someone had deliberately reduced one pillar to cut corners and save materials.

  They certainly can't let this happen, building is a rigorous and complex subject, sometimes a screw or a nail can affect the overall quality, not to mention that there is still one column missing now. Fang Dongchen immediately found them to reason, the contractor did not expect that the two could notice even such a small place, and suddenly he was at a loss for words, so he brought in a middle-aged man who looked like a foreman to deal with them.

  That man had a gold chain as thick as a finger hanging from his neck, and at first glance, he was a nouveau riche with a sinister aura. He swaggered over, puffing on a cigarette, and when he saw Xu Liuyi, a strange glint flashed in his eyes. Fang Dongchen instinctively stretched out his hand to shield her behind him, and Xu Liuyi also felt puzzled - she didn't know this person, so why did she suddenly have such an uncomfortable feeling.

  That man quickly withdrew his gaze and walked into the building, took a look around and came back to pat Fang Dongchen's shoulder and said.

  "Hey handsome, about this pillar's problem, with my many years of architectural experience, three pillars are enough to support this building, you can rest assured!"

  He finished speaking and actually ambiguously raised his hand to pinch Fang Dongchen's buttocks, no matter how good Fang Dongchen's personality was, as soon as he saw the lewdness in his eyes, he immediately understood what it meant, and on the spot, he angrily slapped away his dirty hand.

  Xu Liang was choked by his cigarette smoke and coughed incessantly, but still politely insisted on his own point of view.

  "Hey, big brother, you can't say that. We should respect your experience, but as designers, we must be more professional than you in this aspect. Moreover, this is not an ordinary building, it's the future office address of N city government. Do you want to build it into a tofu dregs project?"

  The man was enraged when he heard this, and scolded as he reached out to push Xu Liu'er. Fang Dongchen immediately turned red with anger and grabbed him, saying in a stern tone:

  "You should know that this is a project developed by Shenyuan, right? As designers of Shenyuan, we order you to tear down and rebuild that building, otherwise don't blame us for reporting to General Lu!"

  The man spat out the cigarette in his mouth and slammed it on the ground, pointing at Fang Dongchen and scolding.

  "Listen up, kid! I'm warning you not to mess with me, or I'll beat you to death! I don't rely on Shen Yuan for food anymore, I have bigger clients now. You think people like you are anything to worry about?"

  In the end, the man put away his anger and looked at Fang Dongchen with ill intentions.

  "But if you listen to your brother me, I'll definitely take good care of you, haha!"

  Fang Dongchen's face was full of rage, and he even wanted to punch the man, but was stopped by Xu Liuwei. This was the man's territory, and if they really fought, they would be at a disadvantage. Just then, the man's phone rang again, and he walked away with a smile on his face after glancing at it.

  So far so good, but what's next?
