Chapter 223 A Simple Life is a Blessing
"I'm really fine. I know my body well, Xiaojing. But even so, I'm still worried. I'm already very happy that you can be by my side. I don't need any glory at all. You are my light."
"Of course I wanted to get married. I've always thought about it. I've been working on projects for the past two years, just wanting to come back and see you soon. I didn't expect it to end up like this." Jiang Chen smiled bitterly. "I didn't expect it to end up like this."
"Xiao Jing, just think of me as selfish. Even though I'm blind, I still don't want you to leave me. Xiao Jing, please don't leave me, okay?"
"Don't worry, I won't leave, and I won't leave." Bai Jing felt very distressed seeing his uneasy and regretful look.
"Xiao Jing." Jiang Chen hugged her tightly, holding her tightly as if it was engraved in his bones, and kept repeating that he would cooperate with the treatment and recover soon.
…
Because Jiang Chen's return disrupted Bai Jing's original plan, but in the end it was the same ending.
Dark part.
Director Zhou’s office.
"What did you say? Say it again." Director Zhou's eyes turned red with anger.
He never expected that Bai Jing came here just to tell him that she was going to resign.
Bai Jing repeated her request in a calm voice.
"Director Zhou, please promise me." Bai Jing was a little afraid to look Director Zhou in the eye. She was scared.
"Hmph, I can't make the decision on this matter. Don't you think about who recruited you?" City Lord, you can't let go of such a good seedling.
Director Zhou placed his hopes on the city lord.
"If you really want to resign, then go find the city lord. As long as the city lord agrees, I will also give you a resignation permit."
Good, the two main forces of his Anbu are leaving, who has he offended?
He had been mentally prepared for Lin Huayu's departure, but he still wanted to train Bai Jing to be his successor.
She wanted to return to her family because her partner was injured.
He couldn't say she was wrong. As a human being, everyone should put themselves first, but he wanted her to serve the country and the people more.
But he couldn't impose his own ideas on others.
Bai Jing was met with frustration. Unable to resign, she could only work for a day and then go home.
A few days later, after she and Lin Huayu's medal ceremony, it was time for Captain Lin to leave.
Bai Jing invited him to her home for dinner.
In Captain Lin's words, he is a stingy guy and he is not even willing to treat him to a good meal.
However, I was still very happy that she invited me to her home.
Captain Lin naturally also met Jiang Chen.
When he saw the guard following Jiang Chen, he was shocked. This person looked younger than him, but his achievements were no less than his.
Because of the confidentiality agreement, the two talked about what they needed to say, and after discovering that they had a few mutual friends, their relationship became a little closer.
After all, comradeship is different from that of ordinary friends.
Those are friendships for life and death, and that kind of friendship can surpass family affection.
Bai Jing was very happy that the two of them could get along well, after all, she would be relying on Captain Lin in the future.
"When you go back, you must work hard and do your best to become my right hand. If I have any problems in the future, I can always ask you for help."
Bai Jing's shameless words sounded so natural.
But when Lin Huayu heard her words, he was so angry that he wanted to bite someone.
"You treat me like a dog and still try to settle things. It would be a blessing if you don't cause trouble." This girl really underestimates her own power.
Now in City A, everyone in the government office knows her. Her face is more useful than her own.
Bai Jing felt a little embarrassed to be disliked by her leader in front of outsiders.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm such a good person, how could I cause trouble? Captain Lin, please don't ruin my reputation." Bai Jing stared at him, as if to say, if you dare to say another word, I will bite you.
"Oh, you can't tell the difference between the big and small kings, right? You dare to challenge me. I didn't deal with you enough, right? How about some practice?"
Bai Jing was scared.
"No, no, no need. I am the little king and you are the big king. Big king, you eat the braised pork."
This was also the first time Jiang Chen saw this side of his wife, and the smile on his face never stopped.
However, he was also somewhat curious about Captain Lin's fighting power. If there was a chance, he would definitely compete with him next time.
"You're smart."
After the fight, there is a feeling of separation.
"I suggest you don't leave within the next one or two years. I've heard that the Anbu may be merged into the Special Department. Your abilities are somewhat special, so I think the merger will be beneficial to you."
She always likes to talk about clinging to someone's thigh, but isn't she a thigh herself?
"How come I don't know?" Bai Jing was stunned. "Besides, what special abilities do I have?" she asked in confusion.
"Good luck." Captain Lin said softly.
Now Bai Jing understood.
But, that wasn't good luck, that was her cheating.
Bai Jing rolled her eyes and said, "I'm just being careful. You just don't want to admit that I'm capable, so you blame it on good luck." She refused to admit it.
Lin Huayu was too lazy to argue with her, "Just keep it in mind, don't tell anyone else." Although she is feeling a little agitated now, there will always be a day when it stops.
There are some things he is not willing to say directly, but he also wants his friends to have a better path.
"With your contributions, I'm afraid your position will not be low when the merger comes." It is better to rely on yourself than on others.
"I'll think about it."
Jiang Chen's eyesight hasn't healed yet, and he won't be returning to the army for a while. In that case, she would be happy to stay in City A longer, after all, her family members are all here.
"Okay, remember to give me ten kilograms of medicinal wine every year. If you dare to reduce my share, I will show you how I will deal with you." After eating and drinking, it was time for him to leave.
Bai Jing rolled her eyes at him and said, "You talk as if you can drink in the army." This guy was already thinking about her things before he even left.
"I can't drink, but that's no reason for you to send less to me, Bai Jing. Let me tell you, if you dare to send less to me, I'll show you how I'll deal with you."
After saying that, he took out an envelope with an address and phone number written on it. "This is my home address and phone number."
Bai Jing took it and smiled, "Okay, I won't give you less wine, but remember to buy me some herbs when they run out. After all, they're not cheap."
Lin Huayu was furious. "You heartless thing, have you forgotten how many favors I owed you for those medicinal herbs?"
This ungrateful person should have been more corrupt in the beginning.
Send the person away with a lot of noise.
After returning, Jiang Chen could hear her disappointment.
"It's okay, we'll see each other again in the future." Friends are always friends no matter how far we are apart.
"Yeah, I know, but I just feel a little uncomfortable." Once Captain Lin left, she didn't resign, so Team 5 became her responsibility, and she didn't want to be in charge.
But whether she likes it or not, she is determined to shoulder this responsibility.
Director Zhou gradually calmed down when he saw that Bai Jing no longer mentioned her resignation.
She started assigning tasks to Bai Jing, but Bai Jing didn't dare to accept them. Jiang Chen was at home, and she didn't want to leave him alone.
So she refused Director Zhou's mission to go out and only wanted to stabilize the rear. Director Zhou had no objection to this. He was unwilling to go against Bai Jing's wishes unless it was absolutely necessary.
Jiang Chen’s eyesight was a big problem, and Bai Jing didn’t dare to delay any longer. After taking two days off, she took him to see Director Liu.
After a thorough examination, Director Liu prescribed half a month's worth of medicine for Jiang Chen. He had to continue taking the health-preserving pills he had been taking before, and he couldn't stop taking the medicine. Fortunately, there was hope for treatment, and Jiang Chen was very cooperative.
Wang Zhongping stayed, and Bai Jing still had to be at home when she was at work.
However, when the news of his recovery reached back to the unit, the old leaders were all very happy.
Jiang Chen's application for discharge from the army was not submitted in the end. Bai Jing said that he could think about it again.
The days became dull, but in the hearts of the two, such days were beautiful, at least they liked them.
"I don't have anything to do today. I'll go arrange my work and come back soon. Sister Xiao Xue asked us to go to her house for dinner. Then we can go buy some gifts together."
Before leaving the house this morning, Bai Jing told Jiang Chen, "Be good and take your medicine at home. You'll have a follow-up checkup in a few days. You don't want to be nagging by Director Liu, do you?"
The last time they went back to town, they didn't go back, but this time, they planned to go home, mainly to talk about getting married.
Jiang Chen no longer has any relatives on this side, so the wedding will naturally be held on the woman's side.
Jiang Chen had no objection to this, but now that he was blind, he was a little afraid that his parents would not agree to their marriage.
However, he did not tell Bai Jing about these concerns, as he believed he could solve them.
"I understand. I will cooperate with the treatment. I'm still looking forward to marrying you." Director Liu said that as long as the disease is well controlled, his condition can actually be recovered within a few months.
He was not in a hurry, not at all. As long as he was with her, he was not in a hurry for anything.
"That's good to know. Okay, I'm done eating. If you're bored, let Xiao Wang take you out for a walk." Bai Jing couldn't help but persuade him out loud because she was afraid that he would always be bored at home.
"good."
Bai Jing went to work.
There were only him and Wang Zhongping at home.
After breakfast, Jiang Chen took the initiative to ask Wang Zhongping to push him out for a walk for the first time. The weather was nice now, so it would be nice to take a walk.
Wang Zhongping was the happiest. He had been with Engineer Jiang for so long, but this was the first time he saw him so relaxed.
As soon as she got to work, Bai Jing gathered five groups of people and began to arrange some daily work.
The members have also gotten used to the days when Team Lin leaves and Team Bai takes over.
They are all people who have been through thick and thin together, and they can all understand Bai Jing's current situation.
"Captain, Zhou Yang from Team One wants to borrow someone from us. Do you think we should agree to this?" After seeing the captain finish talking about the business, the member of Group Five who was responsible for external communication reported the matter.
Bai Jing had long wanted to divide the members of the five groups into different groups. Now that she had such an opportunity, she naturally would not stop it.
"Sure, you ask him how many people he needs, and then see who is free in the group. Those who want to go can sign up on their own." Although their five groups were newly formed a few years ago, each one of them is very capable.
It's normal to be remembered by others.
"By the way, when you have time, take a look at the notes I wrote on interrogation techniques. They will be very useful to you in the future." She has never been a stingy person. Ever since she acquired the interrogation skills, she has taught them to everyone intentionally or unintentionally.
Not to say that everyone is a grandmaster, but at least when it comes to interrogation, the five groups are unmatched.
Even Lin Huayu made several copies and took them away when he left.
"I understand, Captain. We are all learning." Upon hearing the captain's words, everyone responded.
"That's fine, it's okay, I'll go back first. If you have anything, you can come to my house to find me."
Bai Jing left work less than two hours later.
But when I was leaving, I met Shao Qing.
"Oh, it's not easy to meet such a busy person. You go back so early to accompany Jiang Chen." Shao Qing was happy to see Bai Jing, and he couldn't control his mouth.
"Come on, it's a shame to have you busy. Well, I'm afraid he won't be used to it, so it's better for you to spend more time with him." Bai Jing didn't mind his teasing and answered naturally.
"We're going to Sister Xiao Xue's house for dinner tonight. Don't be late. I brought the medicinal wine I brewed last time. Don't blame me for not reminding you if Nan Lichen hides it."
After getting to know each other, she became more relaxed with Jiang Chen's friends.
Naturally, we have a very close relationship, we are not blood brothers but we are better than brothers.
"I'm sure I won't be late."
After saying goodbye, Bai Jing went home, but when she came back, Jiang Chen had not yet arrived home.
It was obvious that Wang Zhongping had taken him out for a walk. She was happy because at least he was not averse to meeting outsiders.
Seeing that it was almost noon, she went into the kitchen. She hadn't cooked for a long time, and she wanted to show off her cooking skills today.
When Jiang Chen and Wang Zhongping returned, smoke was already rising from the kitchen chimney, and it was obvious that someone had returned home.
"Engineer Jiang, Comrade Bai Jing is back and is cooking." Wang Zhongping pushed open the door with a smile, and then reported to Jiang Chen who was sitting there.
"Really? No wonder I smelled something fragrant."
Wang Zhongping didn't believe it, so he took a deep sniff, but there was no smell.
However, he didn't want to ruin the show, so he just smiled and pushed the man back home.
Bai Jing, who was in the kitchen, naturally didn't hear the noise in the yard. After all, she was busy at that time.
She was busy boiling medicine for Jiang Chen while stir-frying vegetables in the pot.
It wasn't until Jiang Chen reached the kitchen door that she realized he was back.
"You're back. How was it? Did you enjoy your stroll?" Bai Jing joked with a smile.
Although he couldn't see it, he could hear her happiness at that moment.
"Yeah, it's good. I can smell the aroma of whatever delicious food you made today."
Bai Jing blanched a piece of meat from the pot into a bowl and brought it to him, "Open your mouth."
Jiang Chen opened his mouth obediently, and then found a piece of meat stuffed in it. He chewed it and raised his eyebrows: "Beef, where did it come from?"
These days, beef is very precious and it is difficult to have a good meal.
"On the way back, I went to the black market and unexpectedly made a discovery." Bai Jing said with pride.
It's like asking, am I lucky?
"I'm in for a treat today."
"Okay, go take a break first, the food will be ready soon."
The three of them had a delicious meal at noon. She had nothing to do in the afternoon, so after a short rest at noon, she personally took Jiang Chen to the supply and marketing cooperative.
There weren't many things to buy, actually. Wang Zhongping prepared all the food for the day, so the family had everything they needed. Even though they were visiting guests, there were some things the Nan family also needed.
Bai Jing set her eyes on the child's toys.
I not only bought it for Duoduo, but also for Lele. I can't favor one over the other.
She likes both little ones very much.
After Jiang Chen was holding a lot of things in his arms, Bai Jing pushed him back.
When passing by the alley, they met some neighbors. They all felt sorry for Jiang Chen, and seeing that Bai Jing never left him, they liked her even more.
