Chapter 200: Chapter 201 Looking Down on Someone
Xu Ying glanced up at him, “Otherwise, what? You’re afraid I’ll steal your job?”
Old Li, feeling prodded where it hurt, immediately turned red in the face, “No, that’s not it.”
Xu Ying couldn’t be bothered to quibble with him and stopped asking upon his denial.
However, the food factory’s seasoned ladies were taking an interest in Xu Ying, “Xiao Xu, how old are you this year? Do you have a partner?”
“Yeah, Xiao Xu, you’re so pretty. Do you have a partner?”
Xu Ying nodded, under everyone’s watchful gaze, “I do.”
“Ah, what a shame for such a nice girl; so pretty and can cook well. I was thinking about setting you up with my cousin from my mother’s side.”
Upon hearing this, Old Li snorted out of his nose, “Hmph, as if your nephew is good enough, please, she’s pretty and capable. She wouldn’t give your nephew the time of day.”
“Hey, now, Old Li, what are you talking about? What’s wrong with my nephew?”
And just like that, the two of them started arguing.
Xu Ying saw the commotion and discreetly slipped away.
The food factory was considered one of the top few factories in the county. There were three major factories in the county: the food factory, the textile factory, and a bakery.
These three factories brought considerable economic development to the county and solved many employment issues.
However, employment problems in Hua Country were still quite complicated.
With its massive population and an economy still catching up, Hua Country couldn’t solve the employment issues for so many people. That’s why there were so many “sent-down” workers.
Now although the food factory had set up a workshop in Xujia Village, with the economic growth, the demand for talent was increasing.
The factory was still continuously recruiting new workers.
The already vast food factory began reopening several of its closed workshops with the influx of new workers, making it seem even grander.
“Who are you, it’s working hours now. Why aren’t you working properly and slacking off here instead?” A middle-aged man approached with a look of disdain on his face.
“Who are you?” Xu Ying curiously asked.
Upon hearing she didn’t recognize him, the man’s face flushed with anger, “Aren’t you from our factory?
If you’re not from our factory, then how come you’re inside our factory?”
“Where’s the security department? Take this person away at once. How could they let someone not from our factory in?”
“I work here, in the cafeteria. I just finished with the work and was taking a look around,” Xu Ying explained.
She thought this was a rather big fuss to make.
Hearing that she worked in the cafeteria and so young, probably a menial worker, the man looked down on her even more.
“Since you work in the cafeteria, why aren’t you staying put there and coming to our back offices instead? This area is for the leaders; it’s not a place for low-level workers like you!” the man scolded.
Xu Ying couldn’t help but chuckle, “Uncle, I was just walking around the factory. How did I end up in your offices?
Your office is clearly in that building, and you’re telling me I’m in the wrong for taking a few steps on the staff path?
According to you, factory workers can’t walk this path, and it’s exclusively for the leaders?”
The uncle proudly raised his nose, “Right.”
Xu Ying burst into laughter at how unreasonable he was and promptly pulled out her work ID, “I’m sorry, I’m not just an employee at the food factory cafeteria, but I also work part-time in the food factory R&D department.
”
The R&D department is in the same building as your leadership offices, so I’ll just go over there. What about it?”
Xu Ying said and strode toward the building the man had just been blocking.
She claimed to be part of the R&D team, yet she had never visited even once. Today, she happened to be here and was determined to check it out.
Upon hearing her words, the man was momentarily stunned, watching wide-eyed as Xu Ying entered that building.
He hurriedly followed her inside. The R&D department was full of learned intellectuals, college graduates. Since when did they have a greenhorn girl among them?
He chased after her, furious and in disbelief.
Even if this girl belonged to R&D, did that mean she could disrespect him, a Deputy Factory Director?
Vice Factory Director Qian, his face red with anger, chased after Xu Ying.
“You girl, stop right there.”
“Mr. Qian, what’s going on?” Mr. Sun had just walked into the building and saw Vice Factory Director Qian, his face a mask of confusion.
The former Deputy Factory Director spotted Mr. Sun and immediately found someone to complain to, accusing with disgust, “We have a new female employee in our factory. She claims to work in the cafeteria and doubles as an R&D employee.
I saw her wandering around the factory just now and thought she was some employee slacking off. She told me she worked in the cafeteria, but instead of doing her job there, she skulked around the factory. I thought she might be a spy.
So I questioned this girl a bit more, and who knew she’d have such a temper? I hadn’t even finished speaking, and she pulled a face and ran off.”
The more Vice Factory Director Qian spoke, the angrier he became.
After hearing this, Mr. Sun’s brows furrowed. Xiao Xu was not the type to be impolite; there must be some misunderstanding.
He said with a smile, “Mr. Qian, she’s not an outsider; she really is one of our employees. You know about the marinated duck and fried dishes, right?
This girl developed them. I think there’s definitely a misunderstanding between you two. Just wait here, and I’ll call Xiao Xu over.”
Vice Factory Director Qian snorted coldly. Who didn’t know that Mr. Sun was about to retire and that he was the only one qualified to be the new factory director?
That girl dared to look down on him; he would give her a proper lesson later.
On the other side, Xu Ying, with her work ID in hand, had gone to the R&D department. Just as she approached the entrance, someone stopped her.
“Who are you looking for?” The man, upon seeing Xu Ying’s face, had a flash of recognition in his eyes and then looked at her curiously. His eyes lit up as he called into the department,

“Brother Zhou, is your girlfriend here looking for you?”
The man called Brother Zhou quickly ran out. Seeing Xu Ying at the door, he paused, then turned to glare fiercely at his colleague, “Don’t talk nonsense.
Miss, are you here at our R&D department for business? Or looking for someone?”
Xu Ying pointed at her work ID.
The young man who had been all smiles a moment ago glanced at it, and a shock crossed his eyes, “You’re Xu Ying!”
Surprise flashed in Zhou Yi’s eyes, “Hello Xu Ying, my name is Zhou Yi, this is Yang Nan. He’s like that, don’t mind him.”
Yang Nan looked at Xu Ying with a full smile, “Hello, new colleague. The boss told us you’d joined our R&D department as the head.
We were just curious if we’d ever see you, and here you are today.”
“Head?” Xu Ying looked confused. Mr. Sun hadn’t told her she was coming to be the leader.
Yang Nan nodded quickly, “Yeah, didn’t the boss tell you?”
“Let me introduce you – this is our R&D department. Zhou Yi and I are employees here.”
