Chapter 1268
"Shh! Are you trying to get yourself killed? Laughing so loudly, everyone knows that Master Qian cares a lot about his reputation. Be careful he doesn't hear you and you're done for."
"Yes, yes, hurry up! He cares about his reputation and is also petty. We can't let him catch us."
Hearing the conversation between the two people outside the door, Qian Jingguang finally realized what was happening and immediately stepped to the door.
He originally wanted to see who was so bold as to talk about him behind his back, but unfortunately he still had an injury on his buttocks.
Meanwhile, the two people outside the door were also walking in a hurry. By the time he opened the warehouse door, there was no one left to see.
As the saying goes, lies don't hurt people easily, but the truth is the sharpest knife. Qian Jingguang was already furious after being gossiped about behind his back.
As a result, they still hadn't caught the person who had spoken ill of him. Qian Jinguang, who was already furious, was now even more furious.
His face, which was originally as dark and gloomy as charcoal, was now completely red, like a branding iron that had been heated to the red.
boom!
After casually tossing the ledger aside, Qian Jingguang immediately left the warehouse, ready to drag those two guys out.
As the saying goes, the more someone values their reputation, the more insecure they tend to be, because such people often care excessively about the opinions of others.
They view vanity projects as a shield for self-protection and gain self-affirmation from the positive evaluations of others.
Qian Jingang was that kind of person, so what happened on the train was a stark trauma for him.
Although it wasn't noticeable when he was working during the day, he would toss and turn in bed every night feeling frustrated.
Over the past few days, he had painstakingly built a barrier for himself to lessen the intense feeling of suffocation.
But the conversation between those two people was like a steel needle, piercing through the barrier he had painstakingly built.
So much so that after he left the warehouse, he felt that everyone he met on the road was secretly mocking him.
After all, those two people knew what happened on the train, so others would naturally hear some of the news as well.
What Qian Jingang didn't know was that very few people in the Ministry of Works knew about those things, because no one was spreading them.
Qian Jingguang was, after all, the second-in-command of the Ministry of Works. Who would dare to mess with his scandals? Once someone reported him, they could forget about staying in the government.
The two people who spoke just now were actually pawns arranged by Li Shanchang to provoke Qian Jinguang's anger.
The goal, of course, was to infuriate Qian Jinguang and make him do everything he could to cause trouble for Wei Wu, and Li Shanchang clearly succeeded.
Qian Jingang is now very sensitive; everyone he encounters along the way is like a straw that breaks his heart.
Even normal eye contact can be over-interpreted, and the pressure increases with each person you meet.
Unfortunately, there were many people in the Ministry of Works, and Qian Jinguang's psychological anxiety soon manifested as physical symptoms.
Heart palpitations, trembling hands, body tension, rapid breathing, and even a slight loss of consciousness.
Snapped!
Just as Qian Jinguang was about to be crushed by the invisible pressure, a large hand suddenly patted his shoulder.
Qian Jinguang suddenly came to his senses and turned around to see that it was Mai Zhide, who was also a vice minister of the Ministry of Works.
"Brother Qian, about what happened on the train..."
Upon hearing Mai Zhide mention this, Qian Jinguang's eyes widened, and he was about to explode in anger when Mai Zhide spoke first:
"Do you want to get revenge?"
Upon hearing this, Qian Jinguang's face, which was full of anger, froze, and he looked at Mai Zhide with surprise.
To be honest, although he and Mai Zhide were both Vice Ministers of the Ministry of Works, their relationship was not good, and they were even somewhat antagonistic.
After all, besides the Minister, who was the top official in the Ministry of Works, he and Mai Zhide, the two second-in-commands, had the most power.
