Chapter 311 is not finished yet.
Inside this office where the atmosphere was extremely bizarre.
Wang Dachui's small eyes were fixed intently on the center of the room. He knew that this magnificent show of posturing had only just begun.
However...
For Li Jiajun, who was at the center of the vortex, this wasn't some grand show of posturing at all. It was a blatant case of "moral kidnapping" and "reverse extortion"!
After a brief mental freeze...
Li Jiajun finally snapped out of it following Liu Jianguo's "line-stealing" accusations.
He looked at Uncle Liu, whose eyes were red, his old face wrinkled up, and who was even continuing to "act" right there.
Li Jiajun felt a surge of nameless fury rush straight to the top of his head.
The annoyance that had originally been suppressed by the other party's preemptive combo was now like a bucket of high-octane gasoline poured onto dry wood, instantly exploding into flames!
The fire in his heart was ignited once more.
'Fine, Uncle Liu!'
'You're the one who ran into my fishing group to conduct a sting operation, using a bunch of military-grade parameters to fool me.'
'And now, you have the nerve to come here and wail in front of me?'
'Your skill at being the villain who sues first has truly reached the peak of perfection!'
This thought emerged in his mind.
Li Jiajun felt that he could no longer remain silent.
If he let Liu Jianguo keep wailing like this, the label of "Big Scammer" would be permanently welded to his head.
He abruptly took a step forward.
He began to argue his case, his voice even louder than Liu Jianguo's, his tone filled with grievance:
"Uncle Liu, you're taking this act too far!"
"You scammed me and you think you're in the right?"
Li Jiajun pointed at his own nose, loudly proclaiming that he was clearly the most innocent victim.
"Talk to your conscience—how have I been trying to avoid you all this time?"
He was emotional, gesturing wildly as he began to detail the efforts he had made to avoid being requisitioned.
"To avoid touching sensitive things, I watched fishing videos online every day and researched civilian recreational equipment!"
"To avoid you, Uncle Liu, and to prevent catching that... that indescribable bad luck of yours,"
"I even spared no expense!"
"I stealthily came to the outskirts of Baishui City and set up a new factory!"
The more Li Jiajun spoke, the more aggrieved he felt, his voice echoing through the office.
"When I moved, I didn't even dare to hang a sign with any fanfare, and I didn't even dare to say a word to you!"
"I just wanted to quietly earn some clean money!"
At this point, Li Jiajun spread his hands.
He addressed everyone present, specifically turning to look at Elder Qian, who was standing to the side, still a bit dazed.
He widened his eyes and asked back loudly with a face full of sincerity:
"I've hidden myself all the way out here and done so much. How could I possibly have scammed Uncle Liu on purpose?"
...
These words were written in blood, every sentence coming from the bottom of his heart.
Hearing this reasonable explanation,
Liu Jianguo, who had been dabbing at the corners of his tearless eyes, suddenly froze.
The tragic expression on his face also began to crack.
Liu Jianguo also frowned.
He thought about it carefully.
He felt that what Li Jiajun said actually made sense.
This kid had been guarding against him like he was a thief, even changing factories.
If the Old General hadn't given him this new address, he would have definitely come up empty-handed at the old factory site earlier.
How could someone who had gone to such lengths to avoid him actively set a serial trap online to scam him?
Logically, it didn't add up at all.
Thinking of this, the nameless fire in Liu Jianguo's heart subsided slightly.
And so,
The two of them declared a temporary "ceasefire."
They stopped accusing each other and sat down to review the situation.
They tried to figure out exactly which part of the process had gone wrong.
"Little Li, let's straighten things out."
Liu Jianguo pulled over a chair and sat down, his face still serious.
"You're saying you didn't know it was me on the other end of QQ, right?"
Li Jiajun had also calmed down and nodded repeatedly: "Of course I didn't know! If I knew it was you, I would have blocked you long ago! Why would I have made a Fishing Rod for you!"
...
Liu Jianguo rubbed his chin, his brain rapidly recalling every detail that had occurred during this period.
From adding him as a friend, to discussing parameters, to watching the videos...
Everything seemed normal.
Until!
A bolt of lightning suddenly flashed through Liu Jianguo's mind.
He suddenly thought of a key detail.
This detail was practically the biggest logical loophole in the entire event!
"Slap!"
Liu Jianguo slapped his thigh and suddenly stood up from the chair.
His eyes were fixed on Li Jiajun like a detective who had found the true culprit, and he questioned him:
"Wait, that's not right!"
"When you mailed me the Fishing Rod, I sent you my address and real name on QQ."
"How could you possibly not know it was me?"
...
As soon as these words were spoken,
The air instantly went still.
These words were like a bolt from the blue, instantly clearing all the mist in Li Jiajun's mind.
That's right!
Li Jiajun was instantly awakened by these words.
Li Jiajun stood there dazed, his mouth slightly agape.
He finally realized it.
Yes, the shipping stage!
It had to be sent via courier!
To send a courier, one must fill in the real recipient's name, phone number, and address.
Even if the other party's screen name was "Seasoned Old Angler," it was impossible for that to be on the shipping information, right?
Moreover, the address of Uncle Liu's workplace was extremely recognizable.
How could he have not taken a single look?
Li Jiajun's memory began to rewind rapidly.
Back to the day the Fishing Rod production was completed.
He remembered.
At that time, he was only concerned with the decoration and listing of the online store and didn't bother with trivial matters like shipping at all.
He had left that matter to...
Li Jiajun's pupils suddenly constricted.
He whipped his head around.
He turned so fast that it even created a gust of wind in the air.
His gaze, like a homing missile locked onto its prey, was fixed firmly on the corner of the office.
There,
That fat guy, still holding a handful of original-flavor sunflower seeds, looking excited and waiting to see a peerless show of posturing, was still sitting on the small stool.
Li Jiajun felt utterly speechless, and at the same time, an even stronger, wicked fire surged up.
He extended a finger and pointed at Wang Dachui.
That finger was trembling violently due to extreme anger:
"You..."
"You damn fatty!"
Li Jiajun spoke through gritted teeth, the words practically squeezed out from between them.
"I remember I told you to ship that Fishing Rod back then, right?"
"Who the hell was the recipient? Did you not take a single damn look?"
...
This sudden turn of events
Caused the focus of the entire office to shift instantly.
Wang Dachui, who had been happily watching the show and feeling like an all-knowing bystander enjoying a high-level double act,
The excited expression on his face instantly froze.
His hand shook, and several sunflower seeds fell directly to the floor.
In his wildest dreams, Wang Dachui never expected that this raging fire of war would take a sharp turn and suddenly spread to him!
He was dumbfounded on the spot.
He stared blankly at the factory director, who was like a Raging Lion, and then looked at Minister Liu nearby, who was also staring at him with a questioning gaze.
He felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over his head.
Immediately, Wang Dachui swallowed hard.
Looking at the furious factory director, his body unconsciously shrank back into the corner.
He could only explain pitifully:
"Director..."
"I... I did look."
Wang Dachui's voice grew smaller and smaller, with a hint of a sob in his tone.
"But I thought you two were putting on a double act here."
However, it wasn't over yet...
