Chapter 269 Xu Damao's Purpose
Xu Damao walked over with a confident stride. He skillfully reached into his trouser pocket, rubbed it gently, and took out a pack of cigarettes.
His other hand skillfully flicked out a cigarette and handed it to the gatekeeper, with a flattering smile on his face: "Brother, thank you for your hard work. It's really hard for you to guard the gate in such a hot day."
The two gatekeepers looked at each other. One of them took the cigarette and frowned, seeming to be somewhat indignant at Xu Damao's words. He sighed and said:
"That's right. We can't even eat on time. We always have to wait until the shift change." Another person also took the cigarette and nodded in agreement, with a helpless expression on his face.
Seeing this, Xu Damao's eyes turned, as if he had come up with an idea. He came forward with an even brighter smile on his face and suggested to them:
"Brother, how about this? I'll help you hold the door for a while, and you can go get some food while there's no one in the cafeteria, and come back to eat. This way you can eat on time, and I can help you share the burden."
The two gatekeepers looked hesitant after hearing what Xu Damao said. They looked at each other, and seemed to be somewhat tempted, but also worried about the consequences.
One of them hesitated for a moment, but finally waved his hands and said, "No, if our boss finds out, we will be in trouble." Another person also agreed, "Yes, we dare not take this risk."
Seeing the two people hesitate, Xu Damao's face turned from disappointment to determination. He took a deep breath, straightened his chest, and continued to persuade:
"Brothers, don't worry. I'm Xu Damao, the deputy director of the cafeteria. You should all know me. If there are any problems, you can say that I insisted on helping you watch the door. I, Xu Damao, will take all the responsibility." As he said this, he patted his chest to show his determination.
One of the older and more tactful gatekeepers smiled slightly, glanced at Xu Damao, and said with a hint of ridicule:
"Deputy Director Xu, you have to keep your word. If we are really discovered, you have to tell us." He looked at Xu Damao as he spoke, as if testing his sincerity.
After hearing this, Xu Damao nodded quickly and promised sincerely: "Okay, no problem, you can go and have your meal without worry. I promise that nothing will go wrong." He waved his hand, indicating that the two could leave.
After the two men walked for a distance, the younger man couldn't help but look back, only to see Xu Damao still standing there, waving at them.
He turned around and looked at the older man, frowning and showing a worried look on his face: "Brother Zhang, do you think we can trust him? After all, he is the deputy director of that department. What if he really wants to release the person?"
Brother Zhang looked at the young man meaningfully, a smile appeared on his lips, and his tone was calm and confident:
"Xiao Liu, you have to learn more about officialdom. How can a deputy like a principal? You will understand the mystery in the future. Let's give him face, so that he can be more helpful when we need help in the future."
As he spoke, he patted Xiao Liu's shoulder gently, as if imparting him some life wisdom.
After hearing what Brother Zhang said, Xiao Liu's eyes flashed with admiration. He gave Brother Zhang a thumbs up and praised him sincerely: "Brother Zhang, you are really amazing. I didn't even think of this."
Brother Zhang smiled slightly, nodded and said, "You still have a lot to learn. Follow me in the future and I will definitely teach you well. Okay, stop dawdling and let's go." As he said that, he quickened his pace and walked towards the cafeteria.
Xu Damao waited until he could no longer see the two people before he carefully walked to the door, gently opened the door a crack, and looked inside. When he saw He Yuzhu, he whispered, "Silly Zhu, silly Zhu."
When He Yuzhu heard Xu Damao's voice, he was delighted and hurried to the door. He saw through the crack in the door that only Xu Damao was there, so he asked, "Damo, why are you here? Where are the two gatekeepers?"
Seeing that He Yuzhu was safe and sound, Xu Damao smiled with relief. He explained:
"I sent you away, so I just came to see you. Also, Qin Huairu has agreed to help you find Director Yang to explain the misunderstanding. I'm sure you'll be fine, so just relax."
Although He Yuzhu knew that it was useless for Qin Huairu to find someone, he still looked at Xu Damao with gratitude and said, "Thanks, brother."
