Chapter 6: Square Grass

Upon arriving at the formalized factory in the big city, although she was engaged in the dirty and exhausting work of packaging in the workshop, earning barely less than 2,000 a month, Fang Cao still felt as if she had come from hell to heaven. She was determined to work diligently and stay in the factory for the long term

Fang Cao pondered for more than two seconds, finally biting his lip and nodding as he said: "Alright! I believe you, elder brother, are a good person!"

Boss: "But the matter is not yet resolved. After Fang Cao was hospitalized, Wu Haotian's parents covered all the hospitalization expenses, which led Wu Haotian to harbor resentment, and so..."

Thus, the two began their conversation by the bustling roadside, amidst the clamor of the busy crowd

That's it. So what was the good news you just mentioned...?

How old are you, Fang Cao

Upon hearing Fang Cao's ordeal, Mu Zixu felt not only sympathy but also a deep anger towards that scoundrel Wu Haotian. He clenched his fists tightly, wishing he could immediately find Wu Haotian and have his parents teach him how to be a decent person.

With the sky, why does the world still have gravity? With hope, why does despair still follow like a shadow? With courage, let the tears be buried in the past. Go write a history called miracles

Boss: "Let me ask a very clichéd question: I have good news and bad news. Which one would you like to hear first?"

Upon hearing Mu Zixu's question, Fang Cao's expression visibly darkened.

Hmm! Fang Cao nodded vigorously. "Moreover, there are still many good people in the world like you, big brother! It is you kind-hearted individuals who have given me the confidence and hope to continue staying here..."

Indeed, such incidents are a tremendous shame and blow to the victims. If they report to the police and publicize the matter, the consequences could be even more unimaginable. This is also a significant reason why many victims are reluctant to turn to the authorities.

Thank you! Fang Cao. "Mu Zi Xu said meaningfully, standing up, 'I deeply regret your situation, but I hope you can understand: this is how life is; the only thing we can do is to live on like a cockroach!'

Hmm! Sichuan Yong'an

After bidding farewell to Fang Cao, Mu Zi Xu boarded the bus with a basket of fresh flowers. As the bus traveled far away, he still saw Fang Cao standing in place, waving at him.

Then, she unexpectedly began to lower her head, and tears started to fall in a gentle cascade.

Have you been selling flowers all along

How could this happen ... After the incident, didn't Fang Cao report it to the police?" Mu Zixu tried to suppress the anger within and sighed as he asked

The workshop director of Fangcao, Wu Haotian, is a twenty-eight-year-old young man, carefree and lacking in skills, a typical playboy. He relies on his strong connections with the factory leadership to act domineeringly within the factory, flaunting his power. It is said that he has ambiguous relationships with many female workers in the factory.

No. I saw the recruitment advertisement for the Hongfa Flour Mill in my hometown and came to work at the flour mill with my fellow villagers

Although Fang Cao dreams of earning a higher salary, she is absolutely unwilling to sacrifice her dignity for it, and thus firmly refuses. After being rejected time and again, Wu Haotian finally becomes infuriated.

Elder brother, this is my story. In fact, it is quite clichéd and there isn't much worth telling, right

Boss: "Please trust in the fairness of the system. Currently, there are at least two points in the information about Fangcao that you have not obtained. These two points are the most critical parts of this task."

The boss: "You have failed to complete the lucky task, therefore you are unable to receive the bonus"

"To be honest, I also come from a rural background. So I completely understand your feelings," Mu Zixu said to Fang Cao earnestly. "You are worried that I might be a fraud, and that's fine. How about this: we won't go anywhere, we'll just talk right here. Look at all these people around us, in broad daylight and under everyone's watchful eyes; you should feel a bit safer, right? Also, you can only share what you think is appropriate for me to know. That should be fine, right?"

Muzi's Preface: "Does she have any secrets that she hasn't revealed yet?"

He warned Fang Cao: if you do not recognize the situation any further, do not blame him for being impolite

Now, the system has determined that you have not completed the lucky task, and there are no objections, right? At that moment, the boss asked

The changes in Fang Cao were too rapid, which surprised Mu Zixu. However, soon, from her expression, he had a rough guess and asked with concern: "What’s wrong? Is it that... someone in the factory is bullying you?"

At that moment, the phone finally rang

Hongfa Flour Mill ... ... The salary there should be decent, right? Why did you stop working there? What made you suddenly think of selling flowers?

He took out his phone and checked https://www.hetushu.com, where there were no unread messages.

What?

It has been more than two months

You have triggered a high-value bonus task. Upon completion of this task, you will receive a bonus of 20,000 yuan

Muzi Sequence: "Hello?"

The boss: "In front of Wu Haotian, Fang Cao drank an entire bottle of pesticide. It was her several fellow villagers and colleagues who took her to the hospital. Fortunately, the pesticide she bought was fake and had very low toxicity, so she was fine after just three days in the hospital"

Muzi Xu suddenly remembered the task; just now, he had been completely immersed in the story told by Fang Cao, entirely forgetting about the lucky task.

Hongfa Flour Mill is the largest in Binzhou, almost monopolizing more than half of the flour supply in the region. The number of employees is nearly one thousand, and the salaries and benefits have always been very good

Muzi was astonished: "Ah? How could she be so foolish! Did she really drink it?"

It is 21.

Due to a lack of work experience, I have faced numerous obstacles while searching for a job. Without transportation funds, I cannot return home, so I have no choice but to sell flowers to barely make ends meet

"Do not call me 'big brother' anymore, just call me Muzi," Muzi said with a smile.

No. The boss surprisingly sighed with emotion and color. A twenty-year-old girl from a remote and isolated rural area, encountering such a situation, what would happen if she reported it to the police? What would her life be like afterwards?

Is this not considered completing the task

despicable scum

The results of the high school entrance examination were very poor, which caused Fang Cao to lose confidence in continuing his studies in high school. He worked as a carpet and book worker in a small carpet factory in his hometown. The factory was quite small, with low wages, and there were often no jobs, leading to frequent holidays. Later, a fellow villager from Binzhou mentioned that a flour mill was hiring, offering relatively high wages and good benefits. Fang Cao was tempted and soon boarded a train to Binzhou with several fellow villagers.

Muzi Xu, upon hearing this, could not help but exclaim in surprise, his anger instantly turning his eyes blood red, his fists cracking ominously as he clenched them tightly

Mu Zi repeatedly murmured the name Wu Haotian in his heart, tightly clenching his fists

Moreover, people are watching while actions are being taken. Scoundrels like Wu Haotian will eventually pay for their misdeeds. Mu Zixu said with a smile. "Alright, I should head back. If your flowers are still this beautiful tomorrow, I will come back to buy some..."

How long have you been in Binzhou

A few days later, property was stolen from the workshop. The factory received a report and found the missing items in Fang Cao's locker. Consequently, Fang Cao inexplicably became labeled as a thief and was reported to the entire factory, dismissed, and had all wages and bonuses deducted.

Fang Cao shared her story, and it was evident that she felt much lighter in her heart. She wiped away her tears and stood up with a smile

Previously, he inferred that, according to the boss's style, the so-called secret extraction was merely about identifying who the bad person was. Now, through his own efforts, he has successfully uncovered the scoundrel Wu Haotian and has a complete understanding of his actions. One could say that he has already accomplished the task, right

Fang Cao covered her face, transforming all the grievances and resentment accumulated in her heart into torrents of tears that surged and overflowed

Unfortunately, the affairs of the world are unpredictable; sometimes, effort does not always yield favorable results

Understood, Brother Muzi and the book! Fang Cao also smiled, and the previously reserved expression clearly relaxed. "Brother Muzi, what exactly do you want to ask?"

Muzi's Preface: "So what happened? What exactly took place?"

The passengers nearby, upon witnessing this, hurriedly distanced themselves from him.

The law exists to represent justice and fairness; unfortunately, many times it can only become a tool for certain individuals to oppress the weak with firearms

"First, make sure to keep the money safe." Mu Zixu stuffed the money into Fang Cao's hands, then casually sat down on the ground, gesturing for her to sit as well

Where is your hometown? From your accent, it seems to be from Sichuan, right?

The boss: "First, Fang Cao, filled with resentment before leaving the factory, once took pesticide to the entrance of Wu Haotian's dormitory to commit suicide as a demonstration of his innocence"

Muzi's Preface: "The requirements of this task are inherently ambiguous; whether it is completed is not for you to decide alone"

Muzi sighed: "Well... actually, she is quite lucky."

Muzi's Preface: "So you also have times when you like to talk nonsense... If I have to choose, I would rather listen to the bad first"

What does this mean

Thus, a small act of framing by Wu Haotian led to Fang Caosheng's reputation being tarnished and ultimately being expelled.

More than a week after Fang Cao entered the factory, Wu Haotian was captivated by her beauty. He began to find various reasons to strike up conversations with her and get closer. Eventually, he straightforwardly told her that if she agreed to date him, he could give her a raise, and if her performance satisfied him, he would also consider promoting her to team leader.

The boss said: "So he went to the hospital to find Fang Cao, claiming he wanted to apologize to her. He secretly put a drug in her water, and then... assaulted her. Right there in the hospital room."
