Ning Yuanfang looked at him with admiration, "Yes, practice makes perfect. I'll need to learn from you more in this area in the future."
The two were talking when they reached the factory gate.
Guan Wen subconsciously looked up, his gaze suddenly fixed, and a surprised smile instantly spread across his face.
He Yanzhi, dressed in a slightly worn military uniform, was leaning upright against a tree, smiling at her.
He was obviously waiting for her.
Guan Wenru's eyes lit up, and she quickened her pace, pushing the cart over. "Yan Zhi? What brings you here?"
He Yanzhi naturally reached out and habitually ruffled her hair, then took the bicycle handlebars from her hand. "Well, Lao Wan and I went to a meeting, and we happened to pass by your factory on our way back, so I had him drop me off here and pick you up from get off work."
His actions were intimate and natural, making Guan Wenru's face flush slightly and her heart feel sweet.
At this moment, He Yanzhi's gaze passed over her and landed on Ning Yuanfang beside her, his eyes carrying a hint of scrutiny and questioning.
His tone was calm, but with a hint of scrutiny. "Wenru, who is this comrade? He looks somewhat unfamiliar."
Guan Wenru suddenly realized that she hadn't introduced them yet, and quickly stepped aside, "Oh right! Look at me, Yanzhi, this is Comrade Ning Yuanfang, the commune's newly appointed acting deputy director of our factory, Director Ning, and this is my wife, He Yanzhi."
Ning Yuanfang wore a polite smile and extended his hand, "Commander He, hello. I've heard so much about you. It's great to finally meet you today."
He Yanzhi reached out and shook hands with him briefly, with just the right amount of pressure. "Director Ning, hello, welcome to work at the feed processing plant."
Their handshake was brief, and their conversation was equally dry.
A faint, inexplicable tension inexplicably rose in the air.
Guan Wenru keenly sensed that these two men didn't seem to like each other very much.
Although they maintained basic politeness on the surface.
Is this what is meant by "like repels like"?
He Yanzhi turned his gaze back to Guan Wenru, his tone softening, "Can we go now? We still have to cook for those three little rascals when we get home."
Guan Wenru smiled and said, "I can walk now! I'm fine, Director Ning. Shall we call it a day? See you tomorrow!"
Ning Yuanfang remained expressionless, still smiling, "Okay, Director Guan, Commander He, take care, see you tomorrow."
He Yanzhi nodded slightly to Ning Yuanfang as a farewell.
He then pushed his bicycle and walked side by side with Guan Wenru toward the military region.
After walking a few steps, Guan Wenru couldn't help but look back. Seeing Ning Yuanfang still standing there watching them, she quickly smiled and waved her hand again.
Guan Wenru whispered to He Yanzhi, "Hey, isn't it strange? I feel like there's some... conflict between you and Director Ning?"
He Yanzhi looked straight ahead, his expression indifferent. "Really? You're overthinking it. I just think this person... has good taste."
Guan Wenru: "??? What does that mean?"
"It's nothing!" He Yanzhi patted her head. "Get in the car, let's go home!"
