Upon hearing this, County Magistrate Guo was unhappy. "Besides anything else, although I don't have the ability to directly redress your wrongdoing, I can still take care of you."

Chen Ao lowered his eyelids, his long eyelashes covering the glint in his eyes. "Forget it, I'm just a hot potato now. If you get close to me, you'll be easily targeted. County Magistrate Guo, you still have a bright future. There's no need to get involved with someone like me."

"What kind of person are you? If you hadn't saved my life, I wouldn't be where I am today!" County Magistrate Guo said indignantly, "Alright, stop talking. I'll talk to the county military district and have you transferred there."

"Really."

Hearing this, Shen Ao looked up at County Magistrate Guo and told him his plan, "I plan to go to the army over there in the commune. This way it will be close to the brigade and convenient for travel."

County Magistrate Guo's eyes rolled, and he immediately understood. "Oh, you're worried about being separated from your wife, right? That's fine. I can transfer her to the county seat with me and give her a clerk job. It wouldn't be considered a backdoor deal, though. Which department wouldn't be vying for talent like Comrade Bai?"

"Let's talk about it later."

It was not easy for Shen Ao to refuse directly. After all, County Magistrate Guo was so enthusiastic, he couldn't refuse his kindness.

If it were in the past, he would probably have agreed directly.

After all, he is just following the rules and is not a fool. Why not enjoy the good life instead of suffering?

But now...

As he came into contact with Bai Ying more and more, he began to uncontrollably look at things from Bai Ying's perspective and did not want to see Bai Ying being wronged.

Bai Ying is not traditional. She obviously doesn't want to be just a man's foil. She also has her own things she wants to do, and it is impossible for her to follow him to the county town.

At least it definitely won’t happen now.

Well, he didn't want to force Bai Ying to listen to him.

If he went to the commune army, he could often take Zhao Dayong's car to Liushu Brigade to find Bai Ying.

If I go to the county town, I'm afraid it will be difficult to see Bai Ying often...

Shen Ao had a serious look on his face, but in fact he had a lot of plans in mind.

County Magistrate Guo responded, "That's fine. Just tell me if you change your mind!"

Chen Ao nodded. Hearing the footsteps coming closer in the factory, he quickly put out the cigarette on the wall and threw it at the feet of County Mayor Guo. Then he walked a little further away from County Mayor Guo.

“???”

Why throw the cigarette butt here?

County Magistrate Guo was still feeling a little puzzled when he saw Bai Ying and her secretary Xiao Li finished discussing the details and walked out of the factory.

The moment she stepped out of the door, Bai Ying inadvertently raised her eyes and saw Shen Ao and County Magistrate Guo separating.

It was obvious that they had just gathered together and talked about something...

However, she didn't mention this directly. Instead, she said goodbye, "County Magistrate Guo, I have already discussed the specific matters with Secretary Li. If there is nothing else, I will leave first. There are still patients waiting for me to see them in the clinic."

"Okay," County Magistrate Guo replied with a smile, "Comrade Bai, you go ahead and do your thing. We're going back to the county town."

After saying a simple goodbye to County Magistrate Guo, Bai Ying left first.

Shen Ao quickly followed, like a follower.

"Oh!"

Seeing this, County Magistrate Guo couldn't help laughing out loud. He never thought that the once famous "lone wolf" would become a henpecked husband now, and was afraid that Comrade Bai would see him smoking and behaving badly.

On the way.

The two stood side by side, only a palm's distance between them. As they were so close, Bai Ying couldn't help but smell a hint of tobacco on Chen Ao.

She frowned, "Did you smoke?"

Shen Ao answered irrelevantly: "County Magistrate Guo smoked it on me when he was smoking."

Bai Ying looked at Chen Ao suspiciously.

Chen Ao looked calm, but in fact he was very worried about himself, fearing that Bai Ying would find out his true identity.

Bai Ying didn't see anything suspicious, so she changed the question, "Um, how come you even know the county magistrate?"

Shen Ao coughed lightly, "Well, I led a team here to carry out a mission a few years ago, and happened to have dealt with County Magistrate Guo."

Hearing this, Bai Ying looked at Shen Ao suspiciously.

Why is she so unconvinced?

I always feel that Shen Ao has a very important background...

Otherwise, why would military officers come to see him all day long, the director of the commune is very familiar with him, and now even the county magistrate talks to him.

Bai Ying continued to ask, "Then how did you get to know the county magistrate?"

Shen Ao replied: "Well...I can't say."

Bai Ying pursed his lips and grumbled, "Stingy."

"Then let me ask you a question. How did Mr. Chen, an economics major, tell you how to open a salt factory?"

Chen Ao also stared straight at Bai Ying, his eyes as sharp as an eagle, as if no clues could escape from his eyes.

“Cough cough cough!”

Bai Ying choked and started coughing subconsciously.

Obviously, she could tell any lie with ease in front of others, but when facing Shen Ao, she couldn't tell a lie at all.

"Well...I can't say that."

Bai Ying grunted for a moment, then finally lowered her head and brought out Chen Ao's previous answer.

This time is different from last time. Last time, when she solved Wang Jinyu's trouble, she could directly say that the knowledge of silkworm breeding was something she read from a book. Now it is obviously impossible to use this excuse again.

Can you build your own factory just by reading a book?

That's too outrageous. If theoretical advice is really useful, then everyone would be able to build a factory just by buying a book!

Knowing that both of them had unspeakable secrets, the atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment.
