Chapter 451: The Industrial Bureau Sends a Surprise
"Xiaoting, Dongzhe, hurry! Vice Principal Yu called!" Pengfei called in a low voice.
The two men looked at each other and immediately ran towards Huang Ling's office.
"No, no, we can't trouble you. We'll go get it now. I'll notify Lin Dongzhe's mother. I have both of their documents. Okay, okay, thank you very much! Let's meet and talk later." Huang Ling hung up the phone politely.
The two children looked at her eagerly. Huang Ling smiled and said, "Vice Principal Yu said that Huang Xiaoting and Lin Dongzhe's Fudan University admission letters have arrived!"
"Auntie, hurry up, call my mom!"
"Tell your mother yourself."
"My hands are shaking..." Lin Dongzhe felt more nervous than on the day of the college entrance examination.
Huang Ling called Song Ying's office, and it was she who answered the call:
"Hey, Sister Ling, I'll make some mung bean cakes tonight and ask Dongzhe to bring them to you tomorrow. It's too hot..."
"Comrade Song Ying, I'm afraid you won't be able to make mung bean cakes today." Huang Ling said deliberately.
"Why do you want to have a long chat with me at night? I don't want to talk to you! I'm making my mung bean cakes..."
"You will be so excited that you won't be able to make mung bean cakes, because Dongzhe's notice has arrived." Huang Ling said firmly.
“.......”
Unlike when she was admitted to high school, Song Ying's laughter resounded throughout the offices on both sides, but now, there was silence on the other side, followed by sobbing sounds.
"What's the point of crying? If you're like this, take some time off now and rush to No. 1 Middle School. We'll wait for you at the school gate. I have your ID with me and I'll take it with me."
Both of their admission tickets and household registration books were kept by Huang Ling. Song Ying knew that Vice Principal Yu would definitely notify Huang Ling as soon as he received the notice, and she could also help get the notice back as soon as possible.
"Xiaoting...where is Xiaoting..." Song Ying asked with sobs.
"Don't worry! A batch has arrived."
"Where's Pengfei?"
"Pengfei's not yet."
"Oh... then I'll go now!"
"Hurry up!"
Huang Ling called Zhou Huaiyi again, but no one answered the phone in the office, so she took her three children to collect the notices.
Song Ying arrived almost at the same time as them.
It looked like she had been crying, her eyes were red and the tear marks on her face had not dried yet.
Huang Ling grabbed her hand.
"Sister Ling... am I dreaming... How could this naughty boy Lin Dongzhe still... How could he still..."
"Our Dongzhe is the smartest. I told you that long ago, right? I told you that when he was wearing open-crotch pants."
Dongzhe's excitement calmed down amid the teasing of the two mothers.
Song Ying also calmed down.
When everyone arrived at the College Entrance Examination Office, Vice President Yu was already waiting for them in the office.
He sighed:
"Oh, Director Huang is really amazing. First it was Zhuang Tunan, Zhuang Hongbin, and Wu Shanshan, then Huang Xiaoting and Lin Dongzhe. Oh, and Xiang Pengfei too. With his score, there's no doubt he'll have no problem. I guess his acceptance letter will arrive soon."
Pengfei has confidence in Huang Ling and is not worried about himself. Xiaoting and Dongzhe received their admission letters first, and he was happier than himself.
After signing and receiving the notice, several people read it several times in the office before leaving the school.
"Well, let's celebrate together when Pengfei's notice arrives." Song Ying thought for a moment and said.
"Well, I think this is a good idea. Have you notified Mr. Lin?" Huang Ling asked her again.
"I just called. He lives far away and I can't wait for him to come, so I asked him to go home and wait for us." Song Ying replied.
"Okay, I didn't get through to Huaiyi just now. The Industrial Bureau is just two steps away from here. Xiaoting and I will go find him and give him a surprise!" Huang Ling nodded.
We separated at the gate of No. 1 Middle School.
Huang Ling is a frequent visitor to the Industrial Bureau.
They either came because of matters at several factories, or to bring clothes and food to Director Zhou, so everyone either knew Director Huang, who was very resourceful, or knew Director Zhou's virtuous wife. In short, there were many acquaintances there.
She was also famous for her good memory. She could call out the names of the clerks she had met once, so she greeted everyone along the way.
When I walked to the floor where Zhou Huaiyi worked, I ran into Xiao Cui, his clerk.
Xiao Cui saw the two and hurriedly greeted them: "Director Huang, Xiao Ting, Director Zhou is in the office."
"Thank you, Xiao Cui, I thought he was in a meeting! No one answered the phone just now." Huang Ling answered calmly.
"Oh, I was in a meeting just now and just came out. Is there anything I can do for you?" Xiao Cui was very smart.
Huang Ling tapped the brown paper bag in her hand and shook her head.
Xiao Cui immediately understood, his eyes widened, he took two steps forward and whispered:
"Congratulations, Xiaoting, and Director Huang. Go quickly, both of you! I'll stop anyone who comes to see Director Zhou later."
"Thank you."
Xiao Cui was just about to do something else, but now he turned around and followed Huang Ling and the others into his own office. His office was next to Zhou Huaiyi's office, so to get to Zhou Huaiyi's office, one had to pass by here first.
As they got closer, Xiaoting stopped.
Huang Ling also stopped and looked at Xiaoting.
"Mom, can you hold it for me?" Xiaoting asked in a low voice.
"Of course you can. If you tell your Uncle Zhou the good news in person, he will definitely be happy." Huang Ling handed the brown paper bag to Xiaoting.
Xiaoting took a deep breath, as if she had made some important decision.
Huang Ling noticed these little details. When she walked to the door, she deliberately slowed down for half a step and waited for Xiaoting to reach the door first, and then she stopped outside the door.
Xiaoting reached out and knocked on the door.
"Come in." Zhou Huaiyi, who was working at the desk, responded without even raising his head.
Xiao Ting walked into the room holding the notice, took a few steps towards the table, bit her lip and spoke:
"dad."
Zhou Huaiyi suddenly looked up at Xiaoting.
Xiaoting smiled and continued:
"I got the admission letter from Fudan University."
Zhou Huaiyi looked at Xiaoting in disbelief.
Even though Xiaoting said it naturally in public, she admitted that Zhou Huaiyi was her father, but she never really called him "Dad" in front of Zhou Huaiyi.
Zhou Huaiyi never felt sad about this incident, and he never even mentioned it to Huang Ling.
The two respected Xiaoting's opinion.
When he heard the word "Dad", Zhou Huaiyi's fingertips holding the pen turned white.
He looked past Xiaoting and looked at Huang Ling who was leaning against the door. Huang Ling had red eyes but was smiling.
"Dad." Xiaoting handed over the brown paper bag in her hand.
"Oh!" Zhou Huaiyi finally responded with a sob, "Dad".
He stood up, walked around the table and stood in front of Xiaoting. He took the brown paper bag with trembling hands and opened it with shaking hands.
Of course he knew Xiaoting would definitely pass the exam, but at this moment he was excited and panicked.
Director Zhou, who has always been as steady as a rock, has never been so panicked.
His eyes were a little blurry as he looked at the notice.
