Director Li, his face contorted with rage, turned to leave but was sent sprawling to the ground by a kick from He Yuzhu. Sister Hua pinned the struggling Director Li down, and the female workers immediately swarmed in. With practiced efficiency, they stripped him until he was left in nothing but his undergarments.
He Yuzhu shouted, "The sisters have led the charge; now it’s our turn, brothers!" The young male workers responded at once, eight of them working together to hoist the humiliated Director Li high above their heads and march him around the factory entrance.
Some took the opportunity to taunt Director Li. He Yuzhu picked up a lunch box and handed it to Liu Lan, slipping her some money as well. He told her to stay safe before taking his leave. Though the situation at the Steel Mill was growing increasingly complex, He Yuzhu decided to sit back and watch how things unfolded. Meanwhile, with Qin Huairu falling ill, Jia Zhangshi was forced to abandon her plans for revenge and instead took on the burden of caring for the patient.
