The person who arrived was none other than Ling Yunfei.
After her initial surprise, Jiang Si quickly regained her composure. "Director Ling, is there something you need?"
Compared to the smiling face on the other person's face, Jiang Si's attitude was noticeably cold.
People tend to have preconceived notions, and she was no exception.
She had never had a good impression of the Ling family before, and after Zhang Yaqin's reminder, she was even less willing to have anything to do with them.
Besides, she's busy right now and really doesn't have time to deal with him.
Ling Yunfei seemed to have anticipated her reaction, so he wasn't annoyed.
He didn't rush to reply, but instead pulled up a chair and sat down opposite Jiang Si.
"I came to see you today to discuss work."
"Work?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Si maintained a nonchalant attitude, saying, "Then it seems you've gone to the wrong place. The project team that liaises with the First Engineering Bureau is in the next room."
"I know."
Ling Yunfei got straight to the point: "The design drawings for the project team have been completed, but Vice Minister Xu is not very satisfied with them."
"So I suggested to him that you take a look."
It must be said that he is a master at manipulating emotions.
After hearing this, Jiang Si looked up at him directly and said, "Why do you think I would accept this?"
When the contract was signed, Jiang Si made it clear that during her employment, she would only be responsible for the foreign affairs building project and would not be involved in anything else.
Unexpectedly, Ling Yunfei nodded. "I know."
Vice Minister Xu has already discussed this with him.
He insisted on coming here himself.
Jiang Si couldn't understand this person's thought process, and her tone became noticeably impatient.
"Just say what you want to say. I'm busy right now and don't have time to listen to you beat around the bush."
But no sooner had the words left his mouth than...
Ling Yunfei suddenly took a package out of his bag and put it on the table.
"The work matters have been discussed, so we won't disturb Comrade Jiang any longer. These are wedding candies from my wedding with my wife..."
No further explanation is needed.
But he knew that with Jiang Si's intelligence, she would surely understand the meaning behind his actions.
Just as he had expected, Jiang Si had indeed guessed it.
Her gaze lingered on the wedding candies for a moment. "Then congratulations, Director Ling."
Whether the rumors were false or the other party was simply being pragmatic, Jiang Si had no interest in investigating further.
All she knew was that after this incident, someone could finally rest easy.
"Thank you." After saying this, Ling Yunfei got up and left the room.
The movements were clean and swift, and the door was gently closed behind them.
This little incident did not affect Jiang Si's mood. After working for more than two hours, she finally finished revising the drawings in her hand.
I glanced at the time; it was almost five o'clock.
After coordinating with her colleagues, Jiang Si handed the blueprints to her assistant, Xiao Qi.
"Go back and get some rest, see you next week!"
Xiao Qi smiled and waved, "Okay, see you next week."
Seeing the teasing look in her eyes, Jiang Si seemed to understand something.
Sure enough, as soon as she stepped out of the Ministry of Construction building, she saw Huo Tingzhou.
At that moment, he was leaning against the car door.
He was wearing the clothes that Jiang Si had bought for him a few days ago.
When she bought it, she instinctively felt that the size of the clothes was a bit too big, so she found an experienced tailor to help adjust the size.
I didn't expect the results to be so good.
Jiang Si couldn't help but take a few more glances.
As if sensing something, Huo Tingzhou subconsciously looked up.
Seeing his wife staring at him, a smile instantly appeared in his eyes.
"Have you been waiting long?" Jiang Si asked.
"I just arrived a little while ago." As he spoke, Huo Tingzhou reached out and took the bag from her hand.
His other hand naturally went around her shoulder. "Are you tired?"
"It's alright." Leaning on his shoulder, Jiang Si gently rubbed her temples. "It's just that I've been looking at the blueprints for a while, and my eyes are a little uncomfortable."
"I'll give you a massage when we get back."
"Okay." Jiang Si nodded with a smile.
Once she was settled, Huo Tingzhou leaned over and helped her fasten her seatbelt.
As if she had thought of something, Jiang Si took out the packet of wedding candy from her handbag.
Before Huo Tingzhou could react, a dark object was stuffed into his mouth.
"Here's some candy for you," Jiang Si said with a smile.
Huo Tingzhou then noticed that she was holding a bag of candy.
The double happiness symbol looks very festive.
"Is anyone getting married in your workplace?"
"Yeah." Jiang Si curled the corners of her lips into a half-smile, giving him a half-smile. "Is it good?"
To be honest, it wasn't very tasty.
It wasn't bitter or sweet, and Huo Tingzhou wasn't used to the taste.
But his wife peeled the fruit herself and fed it to him, and Huo Tingzhou nodded as he turned the steering wheel.
"It's quite delicious."
"It's delicious, then you should eat more." After saying that, she peeled another one and held it to his mouth.
After Huo Tingzhou lowered his head and put it in his mouth, Jiang Si slowly uttered a sentence.
"These are Ling Yunfei's wedding candies."
"Ling Yunfei's?"
Wedding candy?
Huo Tingzhou paused in his chewing, as if he had thought of something, and asked again, "Did he contact you this afternoon?"
"Mmm," Jiang Si responded softly.
Then he recounted how Ling Yunfei had come to see him that afternoon.
âI heard from people in my unit that their engineering bureau is leaving for Longcheng tomorrow. If the project is not completed, it will probably be at the end of the year.â
Knowing that he was worried about her, Jiang Si inquired about these things in great detail.
How should I put it? It's quite aĉĉ ¨ (feeling of mixed emotions).
Even Jiang Si herself didn't expect that this matter, which started with wedding candy, would also end with wedding candy.
"But then again, the Ling family really is very generous."
Jiang Si glanced at the chocolate's packaging. "I remember this brand of chocolate only had special coupons available, and it wasn't cheap."
It's not cheap.
It must have been really tough on him.
Sending wedding candy while secretly plotting these little schemes.
Whether the other party did it intentionally or unintentionally, Huo Tingzhou would not give him that chance.
I saw him eat four or five chocolates in a short time.
Jiang Si found it both amusing and helpless. "Alright, we still have dinner to eat when we get home."
After saying that, she put the bag of candy away. "If you like them, you can take them all with you. You can eat them slowly when you get to Heilongjiang Province."
Anyway, eating candy is better than someone secretly being jealous.
Huo Tingzhou didn't speak, but he had a smile on his face, clearly indicating that he was in a good mood.
He was so excited that he didn't pay attention to where he was going.
Of course, this is only Jiang Si's opinion.
Looking at the missed intersection, Jiang Si sighed, "Oh no, you went the wrong way! We'll have to take a detour from there."
There wasn't much traffic ahead, and Huo Tingzhou quickly glanced at the person in the passenger seat.
"You didn't go to the wrong place."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Si looked over with a puzzled expression, "?"
