Factory Director Zhou looked around as everyone left, then said to a few workers, "Come back to work this afternoon, we'll dismiss early for lunch."
After such an incident, he guessed no one was in the mood to work.
"All right, we'll head back then." The remaining few didn't think too much of it; if they were told to go back, they would.
Seeing that everyone had left, Director Zhou solemnly faced He Ximei and Liao Xianghe, "Sister He, Xianghe, come to my office."
"Right now, we can't be sure if the half-bag of raw materials taken away has any issues, but regardless, we need to be prepared. Director Su isn't at home now, tell me what you think."
He Ximei was momentarily distracted, "Why don't we try pulling some strings, see if they can let it slide with just a gesture."
She had heard of such things before, but when it came down to herself, she didn't know if it would work.
