Chapter 4 May Your Wishes Come True
With this "evidence" in hand, Zhang Zongyi no longer cared about Chen Yun's love novel.
After quickly picking up the stamps and industrial tickets, they carried the person out the door.
How could Chen Yun let him leave so easily? Her dry sobs quickly escalated, as if she was about to faint from crying.
"Director Zhang, you...you have to prove it to me, otherwise how can I face anyone in the future..."
As she cried, she seemed unable to support herself and staggered to the side, her mournful yet melodious voice quickly spreading throughout the entire corridor.
The strong woman in the red armband caught the person quickly. Chen Yun heard her sigh softly: "Director Zhang, Comrade Chen is, after all, a doctor in our health center. If we don't clarify the rumors, how can our colleagues feel at ease seeking medical treatment from her in the future?"
Chen Yun glanced at her older sister out of the corner of her eye and quickly recognized her.
Huang Lian, the women's director, used to visit the health center many times because of back pain, but in the end, it was the medicine prescribed by the original doctor and massage that worked.
It seems that the seeds sown in the past have borne fruit today.
Chen Yun looked away and cried even louder.
Zhang Zongyi paused, cleared his throat under everyone's gaze, raised his head and puffed out his chest, putting his hands behind his back, displaying the full air of an official.
"Since someone has reported this, the organization will definitely investigate thoroughly. Comrade Chen, please don't blame me for handling this officially... If you've truly been wronged, the organization will certainly vouch for you and even compensate you."
Chen Yun sneered inwardly.
Seeing his hypocritical and righteous demeanor, Chen Yun knew that he was a despicable person with a sanctimonious appearance.
This is an insult for her not knowing what's good for her; she'll be sorry later!
With a wave of his hand, Zhang Zongyi turned Chen Yun's drawers and wardrobe upside down, and even lifted up the bed and searched every inch of it.
There's nothing there.
"Not here either."
Seeing that Zhang Zongyi was losing face, someone suddenly shouted and pointed at Chen Yun's handbag.
"search."
As soon as the word was uttered, the handbag was ripped off with brute force, the strap snapped with a tearing sound, and the contents of the bag spilled out.
The toilet paper fluttered to the ground.
"Cough cough—"
Several married men present simultaneously looked away, awkwardly glancing out the window.
It's toilet paper that women use during special periods, no wonder they have to carry a handbag specifically to buy it.
"Cough—" Zhang Zongyi cleared his throat again.
Chen Yun cried so hard it was heartbreaking, and she simply sat down on the ground and started kicking her legs wildly, looking utterly despondent.
"How am I supposed to face anyone now...?"
"Alright, alright," Zhang Zongyi quickly winked at Huang Lian.
Huang Lian bent down to help Chen Yun up, saying, "Dr. Chen, please get up, the ground is cold." As she spoke, she secretly observed Zhang Zongyi's expression and continued to persuade him, "Director Zhang will definitely report the situation to his superiors, and the organization will definitely compensate you for the damage to your reputation."
Chen Yun looked at Zhang Zongyi with teary eyes, her face full of hope: "Director Zhang, I know you will definitely uphold justice for me..."
"Don't worry, Comrade Chen, I will definitely report this matter to the factory truthfully and will definitely compensate you."
"Thank you, Director Zhang, thank you..."
Chen Yun lowered her head, stood up, and moved to the door to make way, leaving only her shoulders trembling slightly from suppressing her emotions.
Chen Yun didn't have much hope for the factory's compensation. She made a scene today to show her two roommates and see if they would dare to cause trouble again.
Zhang Zongyi forced the terrified Yang Haiping to leave, and only then did Chen Yun begin to slowly tidy up the mess in the dormitory.
Zhou Xinfang and Cao Qin were both terrified. Chen Yun's expression changed faster than the weather, and in a moment she went to the washroom to do laundry as if nothing had happened.
The two looked at each other and saw deep fear in each other's eyes.
That night, they all went to bed early to rest, and no one dared to speak to Chen Yun.
Chen Yun was happy to have some free time. After tidying up, she slowly went to the washroom to wash up and prepare for bed.
That night... the dormitory was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
***
The next day, Saturday, Chen Yun, who was not on duty, got up very late.
Zhou Xinfang and Cao Qin had already tiptoed out of the dormitory long ago, probably still recovering from the shock of last night.
Chen Yun lay in bed, recalling the chaotic dreams of the previous night, before finally getting out of bed to wash up after a long while.
Sunlight streamed into the room, dappling the floor with light. Chen Yun stood in front of the mirror that Zhou Xinfang had placed on the wall, finally having the chance to properly examine her appearance.
It wouldn't have mattered if I hadn't looked, but when I saw the face in the mirror that looked nine-tenths like my past life, I was instinctively stunned.
Her arched eyebrows give her a stubborn look, yet she also has gentle almond-shaped eyes and a naturally smiling mouth. These two personalities blend perfectly and harmoniously on her round face.
Chen Yun's appearance is not striking at first glance, but after looking at her a few more times, you will feel that she has a unique temperament that always makes people look at her again and again.
"Apart from being a little thinner and darker-skinned, how can they look so alike!"
Chen Yun touched his face, and it took him a long time to regain his composure from the shock.
If something as unbelievable as time travel can happen, what's so strange about people with the same name and appearance?
"You should read more time-travel novels..."
Chen Yun made a face at the mirror, neatly tied her long hair into a high ponytail, and picked up her lunchbox.
Of all things under heaven, eating is the most important.
Last night's dinner wasn't very oily, and by midnight my stomach was growling loudly with hunger.
I wish I had the chance to live alone...
The morning air was incredibly fresh, and a gentle breeze in the mountains caressed the skin, instantly dispelling the rising heat.
Perhaps because it was relatively cool, there were many people going out for activities in the morning.
Children were playing everywhere on both sides of the road, and there were countless open-crotch pants dolls playing in the mud by the sports field, filling the air with laughter.
Her family has three generations of only children, and she rarely had the opportunity to interact with children growing up. Until the eve of her college entrance examination, she saw a middle-aged couple commit suicide on TV news because they could not accept the death of their child from illness. This inspired her to become a doctor.
This ambition was gradually worn down during nearly ten years of medical school, until the internship rotation to pediatrics, when that hope was rekindled by the fragile yet strong children.
Who would have thought that after a newborn resuscitation during a night shift, when she opened her eyes again, she had become Dr. Chen from the health center.
"Dr. Chen, go get the food!"
As they walked, the voice they had heard yesterday suddenly rang out behind them. Chen Yun curled her lips and gave Huang Lian, who was walking briskly, a grateful smile: "Director Huang."
"Just call me Sister Huang, it sounds too formal to call me Director."
"Sister Huang came all this way to see me?" Chen Yun laughed heartily, and even patted Huang Lian's back warmly.
Huang Lian concealed the surprise in her eyes, put her hands on her hips to catch her breath, and then spoke: "I'm here on behalf of the Party branch to inquire about the situation."
"Is it because of what happened yesterday?"
Huang Lian nodded, then casually mentioned a few words about the results of Yang Haiping's interrogation.
Yang Haiping quickly implicated her boyfriend, Zhang Neng. The outcome of their case will be announced after the factory holds a meeting to decide.
Huang Lian's main purpose in coming today was to inquire privately about Chen Yun's compensation requirements, on behalf of the Party branch.
"The factory has offered two compensation options. Take a look and see which one you'd like to accept. I'll go back and report to the organization department..."
Because Zhang Zongyi led a large group of people into the women's dormitory building, and then, in front of so many people, it was found that Chen Yun was innocent, the negative impact was too great, and the Party branch attached great importance to this incident of slandering a comrade.
We decided on two compensation plans in the morning meeting.
This year it's the turn of the Hongri Machinery Factory's health center to send a doctor to the county hospital for training, and the factory can give this spot to Chen Yun.
Chen Yun shook her head without thinking: "Sister Huang, you should have heard about my parents. Even if I go to the county town to study and come back, there is absolutely no way I will be promoted."
To put it bluntly, before her parents were exonerated, she had no chance of continuing her studies, and further education would be futile.
Huang Lian sighed and nodded gently.
"Then listen to the second option. If it's still not suitable, I'll talk to you about it."
"Sister Huang, please speak."
"Do you see that newly built dormitory building?"
The five-story residential building, which was just topped out a few days ago, is currently being cleaned and painted.
"The first to fourth floors of that building are suites, and the fifth floor is single rooms. They are houses specially prepared by the factory for outstanding single employees, so that they can have a transition after getting married... Do you want to move here?"
I want to! How could I not want to...
Chen Yun's eyes lit up immediately, and before Huang Lian could finish speaking, he nodded repeatedly.
"Don't be so happy yet. Once you move into the staff quarters, you'll have to pay for your own water and electricity, and you'll also have to pay for the bed and wardrobe yourself..."
Don't underestimate these small amounts of money; they add up to a considerable expense.
“I’m willing.” Chen Yun quickly replied, her expression still somewhat helpless: “Although Yang Haiping harmed me first yesterday, I did report her to her face. In the future, who will dare to associate with me in the dormitory?”
“I’ll go and reply to the Party branch right away. The notice will be delivered to the dormitory as early as this afternoon.”
"Thank you, Sister Huang."
"No need to thank me. If it weren't for the medicine you prescribed, I don't know how much more suffering I would have endured!"
Upon receiving a definite answer, Huang Lian didn't even have time to eat before rushing back to her office to report the situation.
Chen Yun watched her walk away, then turned back towards the cafeteria.
***
I withdrew 300 yuan from my 1,000 yuan savings account, and with the 56 yuan salary I just received this month, my handbag was bulging.
Chen Yun sat at her desk, carefully turning her handbag to the front and shortening the strap until it touched her chest.
Huang Lian's efficiency was exemplary; Chen Yun had just returned with the money when Huang Lian already brought the keys to the new dormitory.
Room 515, Building 25 (family quarters).
Chen Yun didn't see the exact size of the room, nor did she know who her neighbors were; the words "single dormitory" alone were enough to excite her.
Due to the special nature of the incident, the General Affairs Department relaxed the requirements, allowing residents to check in first and then complete the various formalities.
In other words, the moment the keys were handed to Chen Yun, she could move into the house anytime.
Despite her excitement, Chen Yun didn't rush into moving without thinking.
I need to check how big the dormitory is first, and I also need to buy some furniture.
No matter what... you still need a bed to sleep in at night!
