Chapter 75 Three Updates in One

Not knowing what happened outside, Lin Xiang listened close to the door. She only knew that after a brief silence, there was a sudden roar like a pig being slaughtered, which seemed to come from the drunk man, as if he was in unbearable pain.

Did the waiter come and catch the guy?

Lin Xiang was thinking about whether to quietly open the door and take a look, but she still felt it was unsafe. When she was about to wait and see what happened, there was a knock on the door.

This time it was a peaceful sound, unlike the rough banging on the door before.

Lin Xiang was about to ask "who" when she suddenly heard a familiar voice.

——"Xiangxiang, open the door."

As the door opened, the lights in the corridor of the guesthouse were on. Under the dim light, He Hongyuan suddenly appeared!

The man's white military uniform was dyed with a warm color by the light, but his face was dark, and he was throwing the drunken scoundrel to the ground with one hand.

"Hongyuan, why are you here?" Lin Xiang's hand that was tightly clenched on the feather duster finally loosened, and her whole body relaxed. Just as she was about to go up and hold the man's hand, she saw the waiter who followed beside her was also there.

He Hongyuan looked at his daughter-in-law and found that she was unharmed, but her face was cold and hard, and she was emitting an unhappy aura. She raised her foot and kicked the drunk man who was half lying on the ground and trying to struggle.

"Behave yourself!" The cold and stern voice shocked everyone. Seeing that the second-rate guy behaved himself for a moment, He Hongyuan turned his head and looked at Lin Xiang. His tone suddenly softened. "I was on a mission in the city today. When I finished, I remembered that you must be back, so I came to look for you."

Lin Xiang's eyebrows curved, with a little surprise at suddenly meeting her husband: "You really found it!"

He Hongyuan asked Lin Xiang to rest in the house as he had to deal with this scoundrel first.

The waiter at the guesthouse knew this scoundrel. He was said to be the son of a nearby factory worker who had nothing to do. He loved drinking and had a bad behavior after drinking. Unexpectedly, he went to the wrong room this time. The room he originally booked in the guesthouse was next to Lin Xiang's.

After finishing his mission tonight, He Hongyuan separated from his comrades and headed straight for the best guesthouse in the city to try his luck. He remembered what Lin Xiang often said, that the purpose of making money is to live a good life, and there is no need to hardship yourself or be too frugal.

When traveling like this, Lin Xiang would definitely choose the best guesthouse in the city, where safety and comfort would be guaranteed.

He showed his military ID to the waiter at the front desk of the guesthouse and made repeated assurances before he was allowed to be taken by the waiter to confirm Lin Xiang's location. But as soon as he got to the second floor, the scene in front of him made him furious.

A man who seemed to be drunk was banging on a door, even pulling it hard, and that door was his wife's room.

He Hongyuan took the scoundrel to a dark alley, threw him to the ground and looked at him in silence.

The second-rate guy seemed to have sobered up, staring at the soldier in front of him with unbearable pain all over his body: "Comrade, aren't you going to arrest me and take me to the police station?"

He Hongyuan had indeed said this to the waiter at the guesthouse, and the waiter even said to him in a friendly manner, "Comrade soldier, thank you for your help!"

But at this moment, the night was dark, but the military comrades did not have a gloomy expression. He spoke coldly, like a chilly wind blowing in the hot season: "Why did you target her?"

The man lying on the ground felt cold all over and stuttered, "No, no, I'm drunk and I went to the wrong place. Ah——!!!"

Before the second-rate guy could finish his words, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his wrist, as if his bones were about to break: "It hurts, it hurts, it hurts, ah ah ah ah."

"I'll give you one last chance." He Hongyuan half-knelt on the ground. Even in the dark night, one could clearly see his sharp eyes. His words were as cold as ice. "Tell me, how did you target her? Otherwise, if your hands or feet are broken, I won't be responsible."

"You, you are a soldier, how dare you treat me like this?" The second-rate guy hissed and gasped, roaring in despair. He knew that the management in the army was strict, so how could this person be so arrogant!

"I'm going to punish you today. The worst that can happen is that I have to take off this military uniform." He Hongyuan was the most difficult person to discipline since he was a new soldier. Later, he became more mature and stable as time went by, but the stubbornness in his bones has never changed. "If you have the ability, just go and give it a try."

The wrist pain that had just been relieved came back. The pain was unbearable and he was completely panicked. He shouted: "I said, I said! Someone paid me to scare that woman!"

He Hongyuan's eyes were like swords, shooting straight at the ground: "Who?"

"I only know that he was from a construction team in the city, but I don't know his name."

Construction team in the city? He Hongyuan immediately thought of someone.

......

Lin Xiang was waiting in the guesthouse room. Since she saw He Hongyuan suddenly appear, she felt completely at ease. When the door of the room was knocked again, there was another voice: "Xiangxiang, it's me."

As soon as the door opened, Lin Xiang hurried to greet him. After two days of separation and the farce that happened tonight, Lin Xiang found that she really missed him and threw herself into the man's arms.

He Hongyuan hugged his wife back, feeling the familiar fragrance coming, and tightened his grip.

"Did you have dinner after finishing your mission? Did you send that man to the police station?" Lin Xiang handed over the military kettle filled with hot water. She didn't know why, but she always felt that He Hongyuan seemed even more embarrassed and looked a little serious after going out to hand over that scoundrel to the police station.

"I've eaten." He Hongyuan tried his best to calm down after being furious. He drank a few sips of hot water and calmed down a little. "The man has been sent to the police station."

"You don't know how scared I was just now." Lin Xiang complained to her husband, "Sister Zhenzhen's child was sick and she went to the hospital. It was a rare occasion for me to stay in a guesthouse alone, and I ran into something like this! I was thinking about how to beat him up and run away quickly. This drunk man is too scary."

"He's not drunk." He Hongyuan suddenly said.

"Are you drunk and crazy?" Lin Xiang could hear something else in the man's words.

"It is said that someone paid him to scare you." He Hongyuan's eyes turned cold and his thin lips opened and closed, revealing a bit of ruthlessness. "That man used to be from the construction team in the city."

"Wang Qifa?!" Lin Xiang reacted instantly, "But wasn't he sent to the police station by the factory?"

"We need to investigate this matter." Wang Qifa leaked the secrets of 119 Food Factory twice, but He Hongyuan didn't care that much. But this man actually dared to take revenge on his wife... His eyes became fierce, and his aura could no longer be contained. In an instant, it was suppressed again, "Don't worry about it, I'll go check it out. Are you scared?"

Lin Xiang was actually much better now that she saw He Hongyuan, but she always had to act coquettishly in front of her man. She nodded and said, "Luckily you came."

He Hongyuan held his wife in his arms, pressed his thin lips against her forehead, and rested his hands on her slender waist, thinking that he was lucky to have come here, otherwise... "Don't be afraid, don't think too much, and have a good sleep."

"Yeah." After the business trip and the shock, Lin Xiang was indeed tired.

The two were about to pack up and go to bed when they suddenly heard a knock on the door.

Boom boom boom.

"Who?" He Hongyuan asked.

The waiter outside reminded him in a businesslike manner: "Comrade Soldier, you have been in the room for half an hour. The time for talking is up. It's time to leave."

Lin Xiang: “…?”

As soon as the door opened, the waiter strictly followed the current rules on gender segregation: "Gays and lesbians cannot live together, only couples can."

He Hongyuan: "We are just a couple."

"Where's the marriage certificate? Let me see it." The waiter looked at the man and woman at the door and gestured with a smile.

He Hongyuan:?

Lin Xiang:?

One was on a business trip and the other was on a mission. Who would carry a marriage certificate with them if they had nothing to do?

Finally, in order to compromise with the strict regulations, He Hongyuan had no choice but to book another room, right across from Lin Xiang.

Lin Xiang had not expected that accommodation requirements in this era were so strict. Only by showing a marriage certificate to prove that you are a couple can you stay in the same room. No other circumstances are allowed.

She watched in dumbfounded as He Hongyuan took the key and opened the door. The two stood facing each other at the door and smiled helplessly.

"It's okay. I feel relieved knowing you're across from me." Lin Xiang could only accept it, but it was already very good. "You've been tired all day, go to sleep."

He Hongyuan felt helpless as he looked at his daughter-in-law who lived so close to him but had to sleep in two separate rooms.

Lin Xiang packed up and lay down on the bed. She had been busy all day, visiting several guesthouses, and then took a two-hour train ride back home. She was frightened in the guesthouse. She thought she would fall asleep as soon as she touched the pillow due to her tiredness. But when she really lay down, her mind became strangely clear again, wondering why Wang Qifa, who should be detained in the police station, would take revenge on her and find someone to scare her.

The second hand of the watch on her wrist was ticking. In the dead of night, Lin Xiang was becoming increasingly curious, but suddenly she heard a very light knock on the door.

She raised her head suddenly, as if she had sensed something, quickly got out of bed, walked to the door, and scratched the door panel with her fingernails.

"It's me."

As soon as the door opened, Captain He, who was always so arrogant, slipped into his wife's room like a thief.

"Why are you here?" Lin Xiang said this, but she actually lay down on the bed with He Hongyuan, resting her head on his neck, and raised the corners of her mouth quietly, "Aren't you afraid that the waiter will find you out?"

"I'm worried." He Hongyuan hugged Lin Xiang and said softly, "I'll go back early tomorrow morning."

Lin Xiang smiled silently in the dark night, pressed tightly against the man's warm chest, feeling warm all over: "Yeah. I didn't expect that Captain He would also be unruly. Aren't you soldiers the most law-abiding?"

He Hongyuan was rarely relaxed: "If you don't tell me, no one will know."

Lin Xiang's eyes curved into crescents: "I will go and tell on you tomorrow~"

He Hongyuan also laughed.

The two talked for a while. Lin Xiang poked the man's hard muscles when she was free. When He Hongyuan reminded her several times to sleep well, she suddenly remembered something. She grabbed his hand and put it on her waist, moving it left and right and stroking it a few times: "Did you notice?"

He Hongyuan naturally didn't notice anything: "What did you find?"

"I went to get some clothes made today, and the tailor told me that the size was different. She could tell I had gained weight, and when she measured me, it was true!"

He Hongyuan responded expressionlessly: "Don't listen to her nonsense. How did you get fat?"

In He Hongyuan's eyes, his wife is still too thin.

Lin Xiang pushed the man's hand away, too lazy to pay attention to him.

——

The next day, when Lin Xiang woke up again, there was no one in the room. The bed next to her was no longer warm, and she didn't know when He Hongyuan left.

At 7 o'clock in the morning, the waiter came to check with great professionalism. He was relieved to confirm that the two people were not staying in the same room. He also mentioned the farce of last night: "Comrade, were you scared last night? I have already reported it to the director. We will not accept such drunkards in the future."

"I was a little scared at first, but then my husband came over and you came to help and watch over me, and I wasn't scared anymore."

As the two were talking, the door opposite suddenly opened. He Hongyuan, wearing a neat military uniform, looked like he had just woken up. He met his wife's guilty look as if she was trying to hold back a smile, but he did not lose his composure at all. He was calm and serious as if he was in military training, and his mental quality was evident.

I walked around the city in the morning, had lunch and went to pick up the finished clothes. The tailor recommended by Kong Zhenzhen really had good skills and her sewing and cutting skills were amazing, which was really eye-opening.

Lin Xiang's pink short-sleeved jacket has a rolled lotus leaf collar, which adds a bit of playfulness. In addition, this color matches her skin very well, which is especially suitable for her.

He Hongyuan's military blue jacket is even more handsome, with a small square collar that is tilted at the side, which naturally brings a bit of handsomeness. The khaki fabric is relatively stiff and more suitable for shaping. When worn on a man, it looks like a clothes hanger, which further highlights the beauty of the clothes.

The tailor stared at the two of them and said, "You both know how to wear clothes."

Many people can't achieve this feeling when wearing it.

After returning to the island in the afternoon, Lin Xiang sat at Zhou's house for a while and talked to Yuezhu. After returning home, she wrote a letter to her mother-in-law and sent a silk scarf along with it.

After He Hongyuan got home, he went out for a while. When he came back, it was already more than an hour later. He heard his daughter-in-law asked: "I bought a silk scarf for mother and wrote a letter to her. If you have anything to say, I will add it for you."

"Say hello to mom, and say everything is fine with us." The man was too concise.

Lin Xiang lowered her head and wrote, and she couldn't stop writing even after writing a simple sentence. This aroused He Hongyuan's curiosity, so he walked to the desk and looked down.

——"Mom, Hongyuan said he misses you very much and hopes you are healthy and safe. When he takes his family leave, we will come back to see you. If you are free and miss us, you can come and stay. He has not been on many missions recently, but he has completed them very well. Don't worry, everything is fine here. We miss you very much."

He Hongyuan suddenly understood what his own mother had said, which was still a thoughtful and caring thing for a young lady. After making the comparison, it was indeed true.

The couple went to the post office to mail a letter and a package. In addition to the scarf, they also mailed some dried shrimps and shrimp sauce. On the way back, He Hongyuan talked about what he had just done: "A comrade in the army has an acquaintance in the public security bureau in the city. I asked him to find out about Wang Qifa's situation."

"Yeah." Lin Xiang also found it strange. "I'll go to the factory to ask when I go to work tomorrow."

Monday began in bright sunshine. Kong Zhenzhen took a few more days off because her child was sick. Lin Xiang returned to the office with the good news of going to the provincial capital.

Zhao Jianjun and Ma Defa were overjoyed when they heard that Huangpi water could be sold throughout the province and that it would be supplied to the provincial party committee guesthouse.

"Okay, okay!" Zhao Jianjun paced back and forth, rubbing his hands excitedly, "Keep up the hard work! Xiaolin, you and Xiao Kong did a great job this time!"

Ma Defa reminded Lin Xiang quietly: "Hurry up and ask the director for a reward."

Zhao Jianjun glared at Ma Defa, then smiled: "I will definitely give you a bonus. Oh, and remember to reimburse your expenses, too, so you don't suffer any loss."

Hearing this, the leader who actively urged for reimbursement is really a good leader! Even for her and Kong Zhenzhen's trip, the factory calculated the average and gave her five yuan in advance for the entire trip, and refunded the excess and supplemented the shortfall. In the end, they actually overspent by one yuan and eighty cents, and needed to go through the reimbursement process and wait for the factory to issue it.

Unlike many leaders who ask their employees to pay in advance, they have to fill out a lot of forms in the reimbursement process and it can take a month to get approved.

"By the way, I have another question, Director. Can you go and find out where Wang Qi is?" Lin Xiang told Zhao Jianjun and Ma Defa everything that happened to her in the guesthouse, which scared them.

"There is such a thing!" Zhao Jianjun couldn't bear to see his men being attacked and retaliated against. It was really too much. "I will go to the factory to ask right away! It can't be that Wang Qifa escaped."

Zhao Jianjun left in a hurry, but soon returned and called Lin Xiang: "Xiao Lin, come with me. Factory 1 has something to ask you. They want to sell you your Spanish mackerel sauce."

When they arrived at the factory, Zhao Jianjun and Lin Xiang sat down in Director Huang's office. Zhao Jianjun was impatient and started talking about how Wang Qifa had retaliated against Lin Xiang: "Director, we can't just watch the workers in the factory being bullied. Where is Wang Qifa?"

Factory Director Huang was also shocked that such a thing could happen.

At that time, no useful information was obtained from Wang Qifa, so the factory handed him over to the Public Security Bureau. After all, stealing the formula from the factory was not a trivial matter, so they had to wait and see if the professional public security comrades could find out anything.

"That shouldn't be the case!" Factory Director Huang immediately dialed the phone on his desk and called the Phnom Penh Public Security Bureau. "...Yes, a thief was handed over to our factory a while ago. Yes, his name is Wang Qifa. What?"

After hanging up the phone, Director Huang said in a serious tone, "It was said that Wang Qi was found to be not in Phnom Penh and was sent back to his registered place of residence to be criticized."

This matched the information Lin Xiang had heard from the second-rate guy He Hongyuan, which said that Wang Qifa was leaving Phnom Penh and saw Lin Xiang alone when he was leaving, so he wanted him to pretend to be drunk to scare people.

This person probably felt that Lin Xiang was the cause of his loss and he wanted revenge.

"Why are they being sent back to be criticized?" Zhao Jianjun frowned, "If they are to be criticized, they should be criticized here!"

"He relied on Old Tang's connections to find a job. Now that our factory has arrested him, the construction team in the city has naturally cut ties with him. He has really become a migrant worker. They said he will be sent back for criticism and will have to spend several months in jail." It just doesn't sound encouraging. He is not in Phnom Penh anymore, and I don't know how he will be criticized or punished in his hometown. It seems like a bargain for him.

Lin Xiang suddenly spoke up: "He didn't rely on some connections, did he? This punishment is quite light for him."

"I'll ask around later." Director Huang didn't have any close acquaintances in the Public Security Bureau, so he could only try when the time came. "Don't worry, Xiaolin, the factory will definitely protect your safety."

However, leaving aside the past incident of Wang Qifa, Director Huang was more concerned about Lin Xiang's Spanish mackerel sauce.

Secretary You called the directors of the shrimp sauce workshop and the two fish canning workshops. He looked at Lin Xiang and said, "Comrade Xiao Lin, the factory has evaluated the Spanish mackerel sauce you made and it tastes very good. Even Director Qin said it was good. The factory wants to make this Spanish mackerel sauce into canned food and sell it as a new product."

Lin Xiang had never thought that her Spanish mackerel sauce would be so highly regarded by a factory, and she felt a little happy at being recognized.

But how to sell this thing is still a problem.

Director Huang offered two options: "You made the product, and you also researched the formula. The factory can either buy the formula from you, or open a separate Spanish mackerel sauce workshop and let you be in charge. Take a look. Do you have any ideas?"

Before Lin Xiang could say anything, the door of the factory director's office was suddenly pushed open. Secretary Tang strode in and expressed his opinion on the matter: "What are we still discussing? How can we buy the formula or set up a separate workshop for a girl to be in charge? She is originally a worker in the factory, and it is her duty to contribute to the factory. Comrade Lin Xiang, please bring out the formula, and then record it as a bonus and pay it out together with the salary at the end of the month."

When Director Song from the second canned fish workshop heard this, he immediately echoed, "Secretary Tang is right, Comrade Lin Xiang, you should quickly bring out the recipe. The factory will not forget your contribution, and it is an honor to give you a bonus."

Zhao Jianjun frowned when he heard this. Why were these words so unpleasant to the ear?

Qin Yangbo looked serious, but he disagreed: "Let's open a separate workshop. Spanish mackerel sauce is selling well, and it will be hindered if it is mixed with other canned fish production. Since this recipe was developed by Comrade Lin Xiang, it would be best to let her be in charge."

"Director Qin, you..." Director Song really felt that this person was getting old and confused. Lin Xiang was only a few years old, but he let her be in charge of a workshop alone. "Director Yu, tell me what you think? How can you let a young person be in charge of an entire workshop?"

Director Yu of the canned fish workshop was in a dilemma. He looked at Secretary Tang and Director Huang, then at Director Qin and Director Song, and said with a smile, "I can do anything. I can do anything."

There was a lot of noise in the room. A disagreement arose among the people in the factory. They were arguing with each other when suddenly someone shouted, "That's enough. Otherwise, listen to me on this matter!"

Zhao Jianjun shouted, and everyone in the office fell silent instantly, and all looked at him.

"Everyone, please stop arguing. Otherwise, why don't you sell this Spanish mackerel sauce in our factory?"

Originally, everyone thought Zhao Jianjun could come up with some brilliant ideas, but upon hearing this, everyone was speechless and almost rolled their eyes: "Zhao Jianjun, that's enough, stop making trouble. You guys are selling soda, why are you joining in the fun?"

Hey, Zhao Jianjun was not convinced: "Why can't we sell it? The first factory that sold seafood sauce can open a second factory to sell soda. We, who sell soda in the second factory, can also open a third factory to sell seafood sauce!"

Everyone: “…???”

Listen, is this human language?

Lin Xiang was watching several people in the factory having a heated discussion. She never expected Director Zhao to say such words. She had to hold back her laughter, which was very difficult.

This is a perpetual motion machine. When the time comes, the third factory selling seafood sauce will open a fourth factory selling soda. It will be like an infinite nesting doll. It will be amazing!

Secretary Tang angrily retorted: "Get out of my way!"

Factory Director Huang waved his hand towards Zhao Jianjun and said, "That's enough, stop making trouble."

At this time, Lin Xiangcai stood up and said, "Director Huang, Secretary Tang, and all the directors, I will think about this matter again when I get back."

When they returned to Factory 2 from Factory 1, Zhao Jianjun was still furious: "Look at what Xiao Tang and Xiao Song said. It's like they were ready to snatch something from you."

Lin Xiang was also not very happy. Is this the attitude of asking for help?

In the final analysis, a factory needs to launch a new product to make up for the loss of sales of four kinds of canned fish whose secret recipes were stolen by the Food Taste Food Factory, so she is not in a hurry.

"Let's talk about it later." Lin Xiang immediately got busy with the affairs of the second factory.

......

Huangpi water has increased its production volume and supplied it to all major cities in the province. In addition, it has also won orders from the Provincial Party Committee Guesthouse and five external guesthouses that agreed to supply it after consideration.

However, people are always smart. After hearing that the yellow-skin water was also supplied by the Provincial Party Committee Guesthouse, the other three guesthouses that had previously refused the 119 yellow-skin water supply immediately changed their minds and called 119 in person to request supply.

In the end, even the Municipal Party Committee Guesthouse, which we were unable to enter that day, took the initiative to contact them.

Ma Defa couldn't help but sigh: "Once the top leader made the decision, everyone came forward regardless of whether they were related or not."

"In the future, if we want to sell any kind of soda, all we have to do is take over the Provincial Party Committee Guesthouse!" Zhao Jianjun thought happily about the bright future.

Kong Zhenzhen's child came back after a week in the hospital. She had lost a lot of weight, but fortunately the fever subsided and the condition was under control, so she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

When her colleagues asked about her family, Kong Zhenzhen immediately switched back to work and talked about the trip to the provincial capital: "By the way, did Xiaolin tell you that the reason why our coconut juice was specially selected to supply the provincial capital guesthouse was because of the old man she met on the train."

Although the old man's identity was not guessed, Director Chen of the Provincial Party Committee Guesthouse secretly mentioned it and said that it was the old man who named him. Who could not understand it?

At that time, Zhao Jianjun even suspected that he might have some long-lost relatives working as officials in the provincial party committee. He never imagined that this would be a strange fate for Lin Xiang to have on the train.

"Oh my, I must give Xiaolin another bonus, remember this!"

Lin Xiang thinks this is the good thing about leaders: they will give bonuses to employees even if there is a disagreement, and they will never search for money.

The second factory now has two types of soda sold throughout the province. It has become the leader among soda factories in Phnom Penh and is even capable of challenging the soda factories in the provincial capital. The coconut juice plantation in Wudaogou is also in full swing.

Ma Defa was the best at studying, so Zhao Jianjun simply asked him to go to Xinhua Bookstore to pick out some books on planting and attend the Wudaogou training. He combined the theory with the experience of local members who had been farming for many years, and slowly figured out coconut planting, which was his first attempt.

The second factory then searched for salt fields in several other cities in Hai Ninh Province, applied for a report, and bought some old salt from each city for further comparison. Finally, it was found that the old salt from Qiu Hai City tasted the best when used to prepare old salt yellow water. After using up the old salt purchased from the Phnom Penh Salt Field, the factory signed a supply order with the Qiu Hai City Salt Field and further upgraded the soda.

The lemons in the yellow-skinned water are bought from another city, Yaning. The green-skinned lemons here have a strong fruity aroma and are full of juice, which is simply amazing.

The second factory signed orders from all over for half a month. Its supply business became bigger and bigger, and its own raw material purchase orders also became abundant.

During this period, a factory sent someone to look for Lin Xiang and asked her for the recipe of Spanish mackerel sauce. Lin Xiang just said that there were still some problems with her recipe that needed further study and hurriedly sent the person away.

Upon hearing this, Secretary Tang slammed the table in the office and said angrily that this young comrade was procrastinating and would only delay things in the factory.

Director Zhao said quietly, "Secretary Tang, we learned this from you. We have to take our time when doing anything, ask questions clearly, be cautious and careful, and never make any mistakes."

Secretary Tang glared at Zhao Jianjun angrily.

Seeing Secretary Tang like this, Zhao Jianjun still scolded him in his heart: Are you anxious now? Before, you delayed the review of our factory's application, haha!

Lin Xiang ignored Factory 1 for the time being. She was still thinking about the future development direction of Factory 2. After all, there were still four years before the reform and opening up, and that would be the time for the factory to really take off.

At this time, the matter that He Hongyuan had asked someone to find out had also been solved. The man's face was gloomy, which made Lin Xiang suspicious: "What's wrong? Could it be that Wang Qifa really asked someone to help him?"

He Hongyuan sneered: "Yes, it is through Zhou Shengqiang's relationship."

Otherwise, Wang Qifa would not have been able to leave Phnom Penh so easily.

Lin Xiang was shocked. How could He Hongyuan, that scumbag father, help Wang Qifa? But after a moment of shock, she immediately realized that Zhou Hongfei was savoring the taste!

In all likelihood, Zhou Hongfei was using his father's connections to get things done.

Wow, he is truly a filial son. He dares to use his father's connections to handle any matter.

"I understand. We have to investigate this matter secretly. But Zhou Hongfei is really not capable of doing anything good." Lin Xiang understood why Zhou Shengqiang was so persistent in wanting to recognize He Hongyuan as his son. After all, Zhou Hongfei was a loser and a waste. He couldn't even avoid causing trouble.

This matter was not a big deal. If it had been a big deal, it would have damaged Zhou Shengqiang's reputation as a leader. And this was probably not the first time Zhou Hongfei had done this. I don't know how many conveniences he had gotten when he went out in public under the banner of his father.

"Yes." He Hongyuan found out Wang Qifa's hometown and reassured Lin Xiang, "He can't come back."

He even used his connections to tell the captain of the local public security bureau about Wang Qifa's crimes in detail, and demanded that he be severely punished.

The two were talking in the house when there was a sudden noise at the door. Jiang Weijun knocked on the door with a happy look on his face: "Lao He, Xiao Lin, come to our house for dinner tonight."

He Hongyuan and Lin Xiang knew something good was going to happen when they saw him like that: "Chief of Staff Jiang, what good news is this?"

"Yes." Jiang Weijun scratched his head and said excitedly, "My wife is pregnant, and I'm going to be a father."

"Ah?" Lin Xiang was surprised and happy to hear this, "Qingya is pregnant!"

"Yes, it's only been three months. I dared to tell anyone about it." Jiang Weijun hurried to inform Zhang Huafeng and his wife, and then left in a hurry, "Remember it."

"I see." Lin Xiang was also happy about this happy event. "Wow, I didn't expect it to be so sudden."

He Hongyuan smiled and said, "Look at how proud Jiang Weijun is."

"Hurry, let's buy some gifts and go over to take a look." Lin Xiang took the man to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought a bag of apples and a can of maltose before setting off.

Song Qingya was three months pregnant. Jiang Weijun was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling. He took his two good brothers and talked about his plan to raise and train a son in the future, hoping that his son would take over his job and become a glorious soldier.

He Hongyuan thought he was too cocky: "You're thinking too far ahead. The baby is only three months old, and you're already thinking about things that will happen many years in the future."

Zhang Huafeng was even more envious: "Look at you!"

However, he is not going to have a baby for the time being, and his wife still has to dance for another two years, so the two of them agreed to wait.

He turned around and stared at He Hongyuan: "What's wrong with you? You've been married for almost a year, and there's still no movement?"

Jiang Weijun knew the situation at Zhang Huafeng's home, so he didn't rush him. He patted He Hongyuan on the shoulder and said mysteriously, "Mr. Zhang's situation is special, but what's wrong with you? Do you want me to give you two bottles of tonic wine to help you get better?"

The two of them stared at each other, as if they were surprised that He Hongyuan, who looked tall and straight, seemed to be of no use.

"You two, get out of here!" He Hongyuan was so angry that he almost laughed.
