Although they could no longer climb upwards, He Yuzhu's vanguard was still very agile.

They split into five armies and searched the hillside.

Jiang Hui immediately said shyly, "Brother Zhu, don't do this. There are too many people in here. Don't let others see us."

He Yuzhu whispered in Jiang Hui's ear, "Look over there."

Following He Yuzhu's directions, Jiang Hui turned to the side.

There, a young couple was kissing each other, oblivious to the darkness.

Although men and women at this time were often conservative, they also had moments of boldness and openness.

Especially in summer, couples can consummate their marriage in the roadside groves, using the flowers as cover.

The same applies in movie theaters; in the back rows, everyone tacitly agrees to keep a greater distance from each other.

Jiang Hui said shyly, "But..."

He Yuzhu lowered his head and covered her mouth with his...

Chapter 372 Almost Got It

By the time Jiang Hui came to her senses, He Yuzhu had already unbuttoned his shirt and reached his hand inside.

He Yuzhu measured her large pair of clothes, which had never been visited by a man before.

Jiang Hui felt extremely embarrassed, then shook her head left and right to look around, thankfully no one else noticed her unusual behavior.

Then he grabbed He Yuzhu's large hand, trying to pull him out.

She then said shyly, "Brother Zhu, this won't do. If someone sees us, I..."

He Yuzhu had long been lusting after Jiang Hui, and said:

"There are too many people here, let's go somewhere less crowded."

Jiang Hui hesitated for a moment, then nodded. This place was really not suitable. Although everyone else seemed calm and collected, she was still worried and afraid that the ticket checkers at the movie theater might suddenly turn on their flashlights.

He followed He Yuzhu out of the movie theater, got into the car, and didn't ask where they were going.

The jeep finally stopped outside a detached courtyard house. Before Jiang Hui could even look around, He Yuzhu pulled her inside.

He Yuzhu cradled Jiang Hui's delicate, shy face in his hands. Jiang Hui dared not look at He Yuzhu's face, avoiding his aggressive gaze, and kept her eyes tightly closed.

Her long eyelashes were trembling rapidly, revealing her inner panic.

"Brother Zhu, I..."

He Yuzhu didn't give her a chance to continue speaking and kissed her directly.

Then he bent down, picked her up, and carried her to the bedside, tossing her clothes one by one at the foot of the bed...

Jiang Hui suddenly felt a chill on her body. When she opened her eyes again, she realized that the two of them were only wearing underwear.

She quickly pulled the quilt over herself, covering herself completely, and said reproachfully, "Brother Zhu, I'm scared..."

"Sweetie, what's there to be afraid of? Do you think I'm going to eat you?"

He Yuzhu squeezed into the quilt, snuggling close to her, gently offering comfort.

Jiang Hui was no match for He Yuzhu's gentleness, and having already fallen for him, her heart was completely devoted to him. She wouldn't resist his advances.

Finally, the last obstacle was removed, and Jiang Hui simply covered her face with a pillowcase, waiting for the final moment to arrive.

He Yuzhu took a deep breath, made the final preparations, and was about to conduct in-depth research.

Jiang Hui covered her face and asked softly, "Brother Zhu, you will marry me, right?"

With his answer already prepared, He Yuzhu said, "Of course, I..."

Suddenly, a rapid gong sounded outside, accompanied by shouts:

"Fire! Everyone come quick and put out the fire!"

The sounds of gongs and shouts were very loud, as if they were coming from not far away.

He Yuzhu was stunned for a moment. What a coincidence! It would be good to wait a few more minutes.

Jiang Hui, in high spirits, immediately sat up and said, "Fire?"

She could see thick black smoke outside through the window, which immediately frightened her.

He grabbed the clothes and pulled them over his head, saying to He Yuzhu, "Brother Zhu, how about we wait until next time?"

He Yuzhu felt very sorry; he was just a little short of winning over Jiang Hui and making her his woman.

All you need to do is coax her afterward and help her accept reality.

That's how they captured Jiang Hanyang's sister and stole his house.

It was just too unfortunate that a fire broke out right in front of this yard. Judging from the thick smoke billowing out, it wasn't far from here.

He Yuzhu could only hurriedly put on his clothes. The houses were all connected, and if the fire was large, it could easily spread from one side to the other.

He Yuzhu could not ignore it.

Although the two did not cross the final line, they were completely honest with each other, and there were no secrets between them on the surface.

The two hurriedly put on their clothes. Jiang Hui suddenly hugged He Yuzhu, gave him a sweet kiss, and then said shyly:

"Although there was an accident today, I'm still yours now. Don't worry, my body belongs only to you. If you want more, I'll give it to you next week after I report for duty."

He Yuzhu nodded and said, "We'll talk about this later. Go out through the side door, I'll go check on the fire scene."

Jiang Hui nodded and said, "Be careful, don't be reckless."

Thick smoke was already drifting in from outside, making it uncomfortable for both of them inside. They could also hear the shouts of many people.

I rushed out and saw flames shooting into the sky and thick smoke billowing from one side.

Influenced by the wind direction, the black smoke all drifted in this direction.

Jiang Hui gave him repeated instructions, then slipped out through the back door.

He Yuzhu closed the door, then went out the front door and joined the firefighting efforts.

He carried a basin and poured water over it, while also using his mental power to check the burning house.

Only after confirming that no one was inside did they breathe a sigh of relief and continue fetching water to put out the fire.

Although he didn't know any of the neighbors, He Yuzhu couldn't just leave since he was there.

Fortunately, the fire was discovered early and was finally extinguished after an hour of firefighting.

A woman sat in front of the door, her eyes vacant, crying and wailing. These two rooms were the culmination of her life's work, and in the blink of an eye, her home was gone.

He Yuzhu slipped a roll of banknotes to the other person when they weren't looking before driving away.

Too lazy to go back to the machine factory, he went straight to the home of the high-ranking leader.

He Yuzhu spoke with the leader's wife for a while, and then the leader returned home.

"Zhu Zi, you've come at the right time. I have something to tell you."

He Yuzhu followed the senior leader into the study, first made him tea, and then sat down.

The top leader took a sip of tea and then spoke:

"I have already agreed to what you said before in principle."

He Yuzhu asked, "Is it about setting up a separate vehicle factory?"

The top leader nodded and said, "Yes."

When He Yuzhu learned that Jiang Hanyang was planning to take action against the vehicle factory, He Yuzhu's first thought was to find a way out.

At this time, it was still 60 years ago, and it would take more than 20 years before we could begin reform and opening up.

Previously, with Director Li around, I could have absolute authority at the machinery factory, but now Director Li is being transferred to the district.

Without Li Hongying's support, He Yuzhu could not guarantee that he would always maintain control of the machinery factory.

That would mean he couldn't protect his own interests, so He Yuzhu simply split up the machinery factory.

Machine shops are everywhere, and even those that can produce lathes are not unique.

There are now two factories specializing in the production of lathes, located just around the capital city.

The most valuable products in the machinery factory are air conditioners and electric fans, but the most valuable product is the Red Star Jeep, which He Yuzhu recently developed.

This is currently the only one of its kind in China; there is no other branch.

Otherwise, Jiang Hanyang wouldn't have wanted to interfere and take control of the machinery factory.

He Yuzhu has relatively little experience and is no match for Jiang Hanyang on the surface.

So he took a different approach, wanting to take advantage of his time as the deputy director of the machinery factory to hand over the entire Jeep production process and equipment to the top leader.

Then a new Red Star Vehicle Factory was established.

I had discussed this with the top leader before, and today the top leader finally coordinated with the higher-ups and made arrangements.

He Yuzhu said, "Finally, the approval has been granted. That's great!"

The senior leader smiled and said, "The ministry has already approved it. It will be located next to the steel rolling mill. It's basically an expansion of the original machine repair shop, which will then be used as the main plant."
