Chapter 451 Departure to the Provincial Capital
Chu Mingzhou thought that Lin Anan would be able to move back to her room after she finished her confinement, but what happened? After just one kiss, she rejected him on the grounds that she was tired.
"I have to leave for the provincial capital tomorrow. I'm busy! Besides, Mom is still here. No matter how anxious you are, you have to wait."
Impatient?
"I don't think about anything, I just want to hug you."
Lin Anan hugged him back perfunctorily for three seconds, "Okay, be good, Mom will be back soon, and then... forget it, it won't work then, I want to take care of Zhuangzhuang myself, you have to control yourself, so as not to teach the child bad things."
Teach children bad things?
Chu Mingzhou felt inexplicably uncomfortable and a sense of crisis arose in his heart!
"Mingzhou, the herbs for foot bathing are ready. Please bring them to An An." Mother Lin's voice came from the kitchen.
“Here I come.”
Lin Anan now either takes a medicinal bath or soaks her feet every day, and it has slowly become a habit.
As soon as Chu Mingzhou let go of his hand, she frowned and turned around.
My mind was full of this interview, what to prepare and what to say.
Now that I'm there, I have to try to make friends with the people in the Provincial Department of Culture. If I use the popularity of "Spine" to promote the art troupe, can I try to get Lin Zihuai to attend this year's military-civilian gala...
Chu Mingzhou tightened his grip, feeling sore in his heart that he felt like he was about to get sick.
No matter what Lin Anan said afterwards, he just responded indifferently.
If it were in the past, Lin Anan would have noticed that something was wrong with him long ago, and would have coaxed and kissed him to make him obedient in minutes.
But now she has become career-oriented and is completely in a sage state, without any romantic thoughts at all.
And in Lin Anan's eyes, there was nothing wrong with Chu Mingzhou. He was still manly and serious.
After washing her feet, Lin Anan immediately drove them away, "Go to bed, I'm sleepy."
"Um."
Chu Mingzhou picked up the foot bath bucket and left. Finally, he held his breath and just said good night to Lin's mother.
Seeing that his expression was not right, Lin's mother was still a little confused, "What happened to Mingzhou?"
"Oh, him. He must be tired. He is training very hard every day."
Chu Mingzhou: "..."
Early morning of June 4th.
A thin mist covered the military compound like a veil. The morning sun rose slowly, and the golden light penetrated the clouds. A few wisps of smoke rose from the chimneys, intertwining with the morning glow in the sky, adding a touch of warmth to the cold morning color.
Lin Anan checked her luggage for the last time to make sure she had not forgotten anything.
Chu Mingzhou leaned against the door frame, his eyes fixed on his young wife's busy back. His Adam's apple rolled several times before he squeezed out a sentence, "Did you bring the medicine?"
"Yes, I have them all." Lin Anan didn't even raise her head, and quickly closed the lid of the luggage bag.
"Be careful when you are out, and call my group if anything happens."
"Yes, yes, don't worry, everything will be fine."
Before he finished speaking, a car horn was heard outside.
"Teacher Lin, it's time for us to set off!"
“Here I come.”
Yingyuan Publishing House was quite generous this time and actually sent a car to pick up Lin Anan, and Editor Liu personally led the team to accompany them.
Chu Mingzhou pursed his lips, reached out to pick up the luggage bag, and personally carried it to the car.
Mother Lin came out holding Zhuangzhuang in her arms, "An'an, be careful on the road, and don't worry about home, mom will take good care of it."
The child seemed to be aware of something and suddenly burst into tears, waving his little hands subconsciously.
Lin Anan felt pain in her heart when she heard the crying. "Be good and wait for mom to come back."
After kissing the child on the forehead and coaxing him for a long time, the little guy finally stopped crying.
"Go ahead, take care of yourself."
"The province is very close. I'll be back in two days at most. Don't worry."
"Okay, have a safe trip."
The car started slowly. In the rearview mirror, several figures gradually became blurred in the morning mist, but they still stood there stubbornly until they turned the corner of the military compound.
Editor Liu handed Lin Anan a kettle filled with brewed tea, "Teacher Lin and Captain Chu have a really good relationship."
Lin Anan's eyes curved, "We have the strongest revolutionary friendship. We trust each other, care for each other, and support each other. Naturally, our relationship is good."
"Hahahaha, that's the truth."
Including Lin Anan, there were four people in the car.
"Teacher Lin, this is Lao Zhou. He's in charge of filming and collecting materials for the illustrations." Editor Liu pointed at the middle-aged man in the passenger seat.
Lin Anan had met this man several times and was not unfamiliar to him. He was the most experienced photojournalist at Yingyuan Publishing House.
"Hello, thank you for your hard work."
"You're welcome, Mr. Lin."
Editor Liu pointed at the young man driving the car and said, "This is Xiao Zhu, he's here to help. Teacher Lin, if you need anything, just let me know."
Lin Anan waved her hands hurriedly, "No, no, there is no such thing as orders or no orders. This time I have to rely on you to take care of me."
A few people exchanged a few casual pleasantries.
"The influence of "Spine" is considerable at present. Tomorrow's interview will focus on the creative process, and the Provincial Department of Culture will also visit..."
Editor Liu began to unpack the details.
Lin Anan tapped her fingers on her knees, listened quietly, and responded from time to time.
As the car drove onto the winding mountain road, the sky suddenly turned gloomy.
After a while, bean-sized raindrops hit the windshield, turned into small water columns, and were swept away by the wipers.
Xiao Zhu immediately slowed down the car.
The car bumped forward in the rain. Raindrops hit the windows densely, turning the world outside the window into a hazy ink painting.
The provincial newspaper also attached great importance to this interview. "Military Medals on the Tip of the Pen" is the latest column of the provincial newspaper. The selection of Lin Anan as the first guest was made after careful consideration.
It is not only because of the sudden popularity of "Spine", but also combined with Lin Anan's own past, from identity to academic qualifications, from unswerving determination to selfless dedication.
After comprehensive evaluation, she is the most suitable candidate at present.
The new force in the literary world does not stop at the literary world.
He has a military background and great vision and ambition.
The rain had stopped when the car entered the provincial metropolitan area.
The sun peeked out from behind the clouds, casting a golden glow on the wet streets.
Lin Anan looked out the car window at the bustling city and couldn't help but feel emotional.
This place is completely different from the Northwest Military Region compound, it is full of prosperity and bustle.
"Teacher Lin, let's go to the Provincial Capital Hotel to rest first, and then have lunch together. Tomorrow morning at 7 o'clock, we will go to the interview point in the Provincial Newspaper Building."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work." Lin Anan nodded and got out of the car with her luggage.
The Provincial Capital Hotel is quite good. The rooms are simply decorated and when you open the window, you can see the lively courtyard.
Lin Anan simply washed up and rested for a while.
I was going to call Editor Liu and a few others to go have lunch. We had been in the car all morning and were hungry.
Just as she walked out of the door, a strong smell of alcohol hit her in the face, and she was bumped into by someone and staggered backwards!
