Qin Shouguo stood beside her, took off his hat and put it in his hand, without saying a word.
"Today is my last day of work, I don't need to go tomorrow." Lin Zhengran said.
Qin Shouguo snorted softly.
Lin Zhengran looked at him and smiled silently.
The two walked slowly without speaking for a long time, and it was Lin Zhengran who broke the silence.
"You have family leave every year, so I'll come back to see you when I'm free. The worst that can happen is that I'll have to work harder and make more trips."
Qin Shouguo heard her speak so easily and her idea was so simple that he paused and said angrily:
"Have you ever thought that if you settle down there, will they follow you there to settle down?
If you all leave, I'll be the only one left here. It doesn't matter if I stay in this empty house. I have children, a daughter, and a wife, but I'll be living a lonely life."
The more Qin Shouguo thought about it, the angrier he became. Damn it, what the hell am I trying to achieve by doing this?
Only then did Lin Zhengran remember what Mao Shufen had said a few days ago.
If she settles down there, some of her family members might really follow her.
She tilted her head and jokingly said, "Then I won't leave?"
"You've lost your job. What else can you do if you don't leave?" Qin Shouguo said and walked forward.
A forty-year-old man is like a child when he gets angry, rushing forward regardless of anything.
Lin Zhengran chased after him and said, half-truthfully, "I'll keep watch over you. Don't you want me to keep watch over you?"
Qin Shouguo snorted without looking at her, "Guard me, can you?"
Lin Zhengran was stunned by his question.
It was okay before, but it’s hard to say now. After all, she is a woman who has seen the world!
Qin Shouguo was such a perceptive person, he seemed to have caught her weakness. He paused, pointed at her vaguely, and said through gritted teeth, "Lin Zhengran, now you don't even want to coax me? I think I've seen through you."
"As long as you give the order, I will wash clothes and cook for you at home. Is that okay?" Lin Zhengran said sincerely.
Seeing her laughing wildly, Qin Shouguo wanted to call her a little liar. He touched her forehead with his thick long finger, then put it down and said resignedly:
"I won't bother with you anymore. Leave your life to serve the motherland."
After saying this, I don’t want to talk anymore.
Qin Shouguo had also thought about the next few decades. Just as she said, at worst the two of them would just run back and forth.
When Lin Zhengran heard him give in, he was happier than anything else. He couldn't help but run up to him and hold his arm.
Before he could finish his words, Qin Shouguo looked around and broke free in disgust.
"Pay attention to the impact. Look at what you've become now. You're showing your emotions. This doesn't make you a qualified translator."
"Don't make a big deal out of it." Lin Zhengran scolded him, but his eyes were full of smiles.
Qin Shouguo turned his head and saw the person in front of him laughing happily.
A'ran was a reserved person and rarely smiled like this, so his heart softened immediately.
Lin Zhengran is like a rare touch of color in this era. Qin Shouguo doesn't want to bury her, but rather wants her to shine.
Let the whole world know how good she is, this is also what Qin Shouguo hopes for.
Qin Shouguo really accepted his fate, but fortunately they still have most of their lives to spend together, and that's enough!
Mottled and gentle years, peaceful and safe, with something to look forward to, nothing could be better.
Days like this are priceless.
——Four years later.
Early spring, 1979.
"Comrade, there's an international banquet inside, you can't go in."
The receptionist's tone was weak when he stopped people. The woman in front of him had big wavy hair, a royal blue tweed coat, and a red scarf, which made her even more eye-catching. She also had a very imposing aura that made people dare not underestimate her.
Lin Nanfeng took off his sunglasses and put them in his bag, looking at the banquet inside. His eyes followed the crowd with a serious look.
She didn't speak for a long time, and the two rows of armed security guards next to her stared at her closely.
But she took out an invitation from her bag the next second.
The receptionist took the invitation with both hands, his face becoming more solemn. Today's banquet was an exchange banquet for national leaders.
Ordinary people can't enter, but the woman in front of him is only in her early 20s, but she can produce an invitation letter, which makes the receptionist dare not underestimate her.
She held the invitation letter for comparison and secretly guessed the identity of the person in front of her.
With fiery red lips and big wavy hair, although she is wearing heavy makeup, she has a kind of otherworldly purity, so stunning that people can remember her at first sight.
What kind of family can raise a woman like this? I'm afraid it must be a foreign royal family.
Why did the receptionist think Lin Nanfeng was a foreigner?
Because the country is not so open yet, at least she has never seen such a high-profile and ostentatious person.
"You may come in."
Lin Nanfeng took the invitation letter and put it in her bag, then stepped inside with her long legs.
The banquet hall is very large, with a large dance floor in the middle of the first floor, and there are many foreign friends.
After the country opened its doors and resumed foreign relations, the domestic situation suddenly became colorful and brilliant.
The second floor was the meeting room. Lin Nanfeng walked around the first floor but didn't find anyone, so he found a quiet place to fill his stomach.
She had just returned from a mission abroad and originally thought she would report directly to Su Province.
However, Qin Shouguo asked her to come here to find her mother first, saying that Ms. Lin would have a vacation in a while, so he asked her to go back with him.
Ms. Lin Zhengran has become quite famous in recent years, dominating China's news broadcasts all year round. Whenever you turn on the TV, you can always see her pretty figure on it.
After the plane landed last night, she slept until the afternoon. She hadn't eaten all day, so she was wolfing down her food in the corner.
But I didn't expect someone to notice it and even come up to chat with me.
"You look very hungry. Are you here to eat?"
Lin Nanfeng looked up from the cake in his hand and met a pair of teasing eyes.
The man looked to be in his twenties, wearing a white suit and a brightly colored tie. He had his hair combed back. He sat next to Lin Nanfeng, squinting his peach blossom eyes as he introduced:
"My name is Zhou Zhenglai, I'm from the Zhou family. Where is your sister from?"
This introduction really stumped Lin Nanfeng.
She swallowed the cake and said, "It's a small family, you probably haven't heard of it."
Lin Nanfeng looked at his shiny slicked-back hair and thought: It’s good for young people to have thick hair, they can comb it any way they want.
"Sister, are you a foreigner?" Zhou Zhenglai said in a friendly manner, "As long as you are not a foreigner, the person who can enter here today is definitely not an ordinary person."
While Zhou Zhenglai was talking, he didn't forget to flirt with her.
Unfortunately, Lin Nanfeng was immune to this kind of electricity and even wanted to have another bite of the cake.
Lin Nanfeng did not answer him, but asked him:
"Lin Zhengran, is Translator Lin here? I'm looking for her."
"Her!" Zhou Zhenglai moved closer to Lin Nanfeng and said, "She's here today. She's entertaining people with my uncle in the conference room on the second floor. She should be coming down soon."
Then he asked with a smile: "Sister, do you have a partner? What do you think of me?"
After saying that, he flirted with Lin Nanfeng again.
"Sis, you're so pretty, you must be single, right?"
Looking at that delicate face, I suddenly felt that the cake in my hand was very greasy.
Lin Nanfeng put down the cake, raised the corners of her lips, nodded her chin, and said teasingly: "Stand up and let me see you. I have very high standards for my partner, and I'm afraid you are not worthy of me."
