Chapter 45 This man affects the speed of sword drawing
"Well, our school will give out meat coupons during the Chinese New Year, and I thought...it's Chinese New Year after all, so we should bring something with us when we go. Don't worry, I won't buy too much."
"Sure, you gave me a bonus of 8.5 yuan, but I didn't claim it. You can go claim it and give it to your parents!"
"Okay, that...Comrade Zhang is a nice guy!" Zhuang Chaoying hesitated for a long time and finally asked.
"Very good, good character, good job, good looks, good family conditions, he..."
Before Huang Ling finished speaking, Zhuang Chaoying pushed his glasses and asked angrily:
"When did you two meet? Do you see each other often?"
Huang Ling got angry:
"Zhuang Chaoying, look at you! You don't care if your wife is tired from work, you don't care if the children have enough to eat, you don't care if the house is big enough to live in, you even have to pool money with the neighbors to buy a TV for the family, and yet you're so diligent in taking care of me when I'm your friend!"
"I'm not controlling you, I'm just asking."
"No one's a fool. Even at our age, everyone understands this! Why don't you manage the banker's business now? Are you just sitting around doing nothing? You don't have any other skills, so when you're free, go pick up scraps and sell them for some meat!"
"I am your lover! You are so familiar with other men, why can't I ask you?" Zhuang Chaoying became hard.
Huang Ling slapped him without saying a word.
"You have no right to ask. I'm telling you, I just don't have time to find a man. Making money is really too important! When I have time, I will find one. Don't worry, before that, I will notify you to get a divorce certificate.
Also, if you had just followed me to see her off, you would have known that her lover was waiting for her at the alley entrance! She had some meat on her bike for relatives and was afraid it would get lost.
Zhuang Chaoying looked at Huang Ling in surprise.
"I'm sorry, I... As a man, I think it's normal for me to do this... Couldn't you have explained it to me earlier?"
"You're quick to pass on the blame! If I wasn't smart, I'd have jumped right into your trap! As a man, you're always suspicious of your lover, and you're quite reasonable.
Explanations are only necessary when they can lead to misunderstandings. There's no misunderstanding here at all. You're just being petty. Also, I only need explanations for people I care about, and you're clearly not one of them. If you bother me with this shit again, I'll spank you!"
Huang Ling ended the conversation.
She lay down on the bed and began to think about this problem.
This man would only affect the speed at which she could draw her sword.
The divorce must be put on the agenda, but it probably won't be that smooth and will take some time.
She turned her head and saw Zhuang Chaoying sitting on the bed, neither turning on the lights nor sleeping.
He was thinking over and over what Huang Ling had said tonight.
Including what she said to Song Ying and what she just said to herself.
Now, Huang Ling no longer brings up the past with her.
However, Zhuang Chaoying often thinks about it.
He had to admit it whether he wanted to or not, but it was these things that accumulated together that led to Huang Ling and him becoming strangers now.
The next morning, Zhuang Chaoying took the initiative to apologize and said that he shouldn't have distrusted her. He also said that they would come back in the evening to discuss when to go back, what to bring, and how long to stay, and he would listen to her.
Huang Ling had no interest in his goodwill.
This is because they are afraid of having no wallet, no cook, and no one to be punched by during the New Year!
Oh.
Huang Ling goes to work.
At the end of the year, the office is as busy as the workshop, mainly dealing with statistics and summaries.
Without computers, she had to rely on her hands and brain. She would feel dizzy after calculating and writing all day long, but with the experience of modern life as a cow and a horse, she was considered the most efficient worker in the entire workshop office.
Tonight, she worked overtime and did some work for a colleague who was breastfeeding, and it was a little late when she got home.
When she reached the factory gate, she heard someone calling her.
"Comrade Huang Ling!"
In the gloomy sky, Huang Ling saw a man and a woman. She didn't know them very well. Only when she got closer did she realize they were Zhou Huaiyi.
"Director Zhou, why are you here?"
Zhou Huaiyi frowned and replied, "Of course I came to see you!"
"What's wrong with me?" Huang Ling thought about it and realized that she had been behaving well recently and had never caused trouble at their factory.
"I'm here to pay you back." Zhou Huaiyi said seriously.
Huang Ling breathed a sigh of relief: "Oh, this! It scared me. I just thought about all the bad things I've done, but I can't figure out how I offended you."
"Is it necessarily a bad thing for me to come to you?" Zhou Huaiyi was speechless. It seems that you have done a lot of bad things. It took you so long to think about it!
He took out two big unity notes and handed them over. Huang Ling took the money, then took out a small notebook from her bag, tore off the IOU and returned it to Zhou Huaiyi.
"I happened to be on a business trip at the time we agreed to pay you back last time. I'm really sorry, but it's been several days and you haven't come to see me, so I had no choice but to come to you."
"I was so busy that I forgot. I'm so sorry." Huang Ling smiled at him. She really forgot.
Only then did Huang Ling see a girl in her twenties standing next to Zhou Huaiyi. She was tall and thin, with regular features and a quiet appearance.
The girl was wearing the shirt and jacket that Zhou Huaiyi bought for her.
They are a good match, Huang Ling thought.
"This is..."
"My sister, Zhou Huailan."
Huang Ling breathed a sigh of relief, and the word "perfect match" almost came out of her mouth.
She didn't know what was going on. It seemed like she and Zhou Huaiyi were incompatible. She always made a fool of herself in front of him, especially in an ugly way.
I guess Zhou Huaiyi would think she is a shrew and a joke.
Fortunately, she managed to hold it back, otherwise she would have been embarrassed again.
"Comrade Zhou looks really good in this outfit!" Huang Ling said, "You can come to me if you need anything in the future. I'll give you a discount! A real discount!"
Zhou Huailan smiled gently: "Comrade Huang is really humorous. Thank you. I like the clothes you made very much."
"Comrade Huang, my sister has been transferred from the town to work in your factory office. I would like to trouble you to take care of her for me in the future." Zhou Huaiyi looked at Huang Ling sincerely.
"The factory is running well! I'm in Workshop 7. Comrade Zhou can contact me anytime if you have any questions." Huang Ling agreed readily.
The three separated at the intersection.
Huang Ling walked very fast.
Zhou Huaiyi was distracted for a while. Every time he saw her walking fast and doing her own things, he felt inexplicably worried.
"Brother, Comrade Huang is so cheerful!" Zhou Huailan patted her brother.
"Yes, she's more than cheerful," Zhou Huaiyi smiled, "but she has a good character, is very smart, and has a lot of tricks up her sleeve. Just don't let her sell you out and help her count the money."
"Brother, are you praising me or scolding me?"
"Anyway, if you have any problems that you can't solve, ask her. Maybe she can give you a good solution."
