When Sun Lifang heard this, her eyes instantly dimmed.

Xu Ying instinctively knew what had happened, so she quickly changed the subject and pulled Sun Lifang towards the table: "Lifang, I remember you love mapo tofu the most. Chef Liu, can you make some for your partner?"

When Liu Guohua heard this, he immediately laughed and rubbed Sun Lifang's shoulder: "You sit here, I will go and make you something delicious.

Don't feel bad, it's all over."

Sun Lifang nodded and forced a smile.

Gu Fuying looked at Xu Ying with curiosity and said, "Tell me about your visit to the diplomatic exchange.

I heard you guys are still playing games there, it’s fun…”

Gu Fuying chattered on and on.

Xu Ying gave her a vivid explanation.

Sun Lifang just sat there and listened quietly.

Liu Guohua soon came out with the Mapo Tofu, and Sun Lifang saw that there was finally a genuine smile on his face.

"It's time to eat!" Liu Guohua brought tofu to the table.

He looked at Xu Ying with eyes full of admiration: "From the beginning, I thought you were a capable person.

I didn't expect that you've grown to this level in just half a year. It's really amazing."

Right now, Yu County newspapers are basically all reporting on Xu Ying’s deeds, and there is probably no one in the entire county who doesn’t know Xu Ying.

Gao Guihua now saw that Xu Ying was very polite: "Xu Ying, you come to the restaurant to eat!"

Xu Ying turned her head and looked at Gao Guihua with a playful look in her eyes: "Sister Gao, how are you? You seem to be getting younger and younger now."

Gao Guihua was so frightened when she heard what Xu Ying said that her face turned pale: "I am already quite old, Xu Ying, please don't make fun of me.

I'm so busy every day now, I don't have time to rest at all. "But I don't have time to play tricks.

Xu Ying's face turned cold when he heard that. He glanced at her and turned away.

Gao Guihua breathed a sigh of relief and quickly ran into the kitchen to get busy.

Liu Guohua naturally knew about the dirty things Gao Guihua had done before, but as a department, he could do nothing to her without any evidence.

Now seeing that Xu Ying scared her like that with just one look, she couldn't help but feel contempt for her.

After dinner, Sun Lifang and Liu Guohua were about to leave.

After Xu Ying sent the two away, Gu Fuying sighed, "Lifang's father was suspended from his job. I heard that he was involved in corruption and bribery.

But the incident was not a big deal and no one was arrested.”

Xu Ying was a little surprised. She knew Sun Lifang's character well. She dared to love and hate, and said everything directly. She was carefree and had an upright heart.

But I didn't expect her father to be corrupt and accept bribes. Logically speaking, if a family can raise an upright person, the parents must be good role models.

However, Xu Ying was just guessing. Without knowing the truth of the matter, she couldn't jump to conclusions.

Sun Lifang grew up in a well-off family, with her parents both working in a factory.

Now that Sun's father has been investigated and suspended, Sun's mother has naturally been implicated, and now both of them have been suspended from work and are confined to their homes.

Sun Lifang instantly turned from a rich lady into a poor lady.

When something happened to Sun's father and mother, Sun Lifang's eldest brother was afraid of being implicated and directly cut off ties with them. Now Sun Lifang is supporting her parents alone.

If Liu Guohua hadn't taken care of her in the restaurant, she would probably have lost her job.

After Gu Fuying finished speaking, her expression suddenly became very serious. She clenched her fist and looked at Xu Ying: "I'm dating someone."

Xu Ying was stunned for a moment, then quickly asked curiously, "Who is it? Let me guess, is it Wu Qingsong?"

Gu Fuying's eyes widened, and he quickly reacted with a look of shame and anger, tickling Xu Ying: "Okay, so you already knew about this, and you're still teasing me here."

Xu Ying laughed out loud when she tickled her: "Big sister, how could I tease you? I was just cooperating with you."

Gu Fuying snorted coldly and pretended to be angry: "Humph!"

"Let's go to my place and talk." Xu Ying said.

The two hadn't seen each other for a long time and had a lot to talk about. They chatted for several hours before Gu Fuying left reluctantly.

After seeing Gu Fuying off, Xu Ying walked towards the factory. Before she even stepped into the factory, her eyes lit up with joy. She looked at the slovenly man in the distance and rushed over to him: "Huo Chen~"

"Dirty!" Huo Chen reached out and pulled her.

Xu Ying hugged him tighter: "I don't mind."

After saying that, she kissed Huo Chen on the mouth.

I haven't seen her for a month, I miss her so much.

Huo Chen's eyes were filled with joy, the corners of his lips curled up, and he reached out and hugged Xu Ying in his arms.

"Are you going home tonight?"

Xu Ying shook her head: "I'll go back tomorrow and stay in the dormitory tonight.

By the way, have you eaten yet? Otherwise I will give you something to eat."

Huo Chen turned his head and glanced at the two people behind him: "You go back first."

Xu Ying's mind exploded in an instant. She got off Huo Chen with a flushed face. She looked carefully and saw two pairs of eyes staring at them in the dark night.

Now Xu Ying completely broke down, and her personality collapsed.

Her image as a strong woman is gone.

After the two men left, Xu Ying gritted her teeth.

"Huo Chen, why didn't you tell me about the other person?"

He raised his eyebrows, his eyes revealing a playful look: "You blocked my mouth when I wanted to say something."

Xu Ying glared at him and twisted Huo Chen's waist hard: "I haven't seen you for a few days. You've learned a lot."

Huo Chen's eyes were full of smiles, and he took out a passbook.

Xu Ying looked at the number above, her eyes widened and her face was full of disbelief. This kid is pretty good.

"How did you get so much money?"

"Yes, the policy has been relaxed now, and people from other places have started to set up stalls to make money. Wu Qingsong, Lu Aimin and I wholesale clothes and sell them to other places to make a profit."

Huo Chen then took out a few small gold nuggets and said, "Didn't you say before that you like small pieces of gold? Here you go."

Xu Ying was so happy holding the small gold nugget that she couldn't stop grinning. Gold was not worth much now, but the price of gold nuggets in later generations would increase many times.

She held the gold nugget with excitement on her face: "Huo Chen, if you have more gold, this thing will definitely appreciate in value."

"I know. I got a lot of other treasures this time when I went out. Do you want to go back with me and take a look?"

"Go!" Xu Ying agreed immediately.

The smile on Huo Chen's face spread even wider.

Holding his little wife's hand, he strode towards home.

Xu Ying followed Huo Chen to the place where she had rented a house before.

She was full of surprise, and Huo Chen smiled and said, "This house is ours."

Xu Ying suddenly felt very happy. She felt that a salary of more than 200,000 yuan did not make her so excited.

Following Huo Chen into the house, under the firewood in the woodshed in the backyard, after Huo Chen pried open a few bricks, he suddenly discovered that it was winter again inside, and several large boxes were neatly placed there.

Huo Chen gently moved the box to the ground and pointed at it: “These are all our property.

Open it and take a look! "

There were so many boxes, could they all be filled with gold nuggets? Xu Ying pushed open the box curiously, her pupils shrinking and her heart beating violently.
