Chapter 519 Fresh Gossip
But Lu Qiaoge on the other end of the phone was still waiting for his reply.
Luo Ziwen's voice was bitter: "Nothing will change on my end, but I don't know what Su Lan will do after she finds out about my situation?"
Lu Qiaoge asked, "What if Chu Sulan doesn't agree to take Luo Aijun to Hong Kong?"
Luo Ziwen frowned on the other end of the line: "Although it might not be the best way to put it, it's obvious that Xiaojun will enjoy a better life, better education, and better opportunities in Hong Kong. The same goes for Sulan. If possible... I'd like to talk to Sulan on the phone."
Lu Qiaoge naturally couldn't make the decision for these two people.
"Alright then, since your plan remains unchanged. As for Chu Sulan... I'll go with Director Xu from the subdistrict office to see her and gauge her reaction and attitude."
——
She couldn't go right away; Lu Qiaoge still had to attend a meeting at the neighborhood office.
A new deputy factory director has arrived at the factory. He is in charge of the factory's affiliated enterprises and comes from Haicheng. He is said to have a very powerful background.
Today I'm here at Xiangyang Subdistrict Office to meet with everyone, since the businesses in Xiangyang Subdistrict are currently doing the best.
Not only did Lu Qiaoge come, but she also brought Meng Qingshan and Lin Jun'an with her.
There was another "grandmother" at the food factory, but it didn't really have any impact.
Factory Director Hao had already called Lu Qiaoge.
Tell Lu Qiaoge clearly that although her side is under the factory's jurisdiction, it's only according to procedure.
And he jokingly said on the phone: "Even I can't control you, Director Lu."
Lu Qiaoge wasn't worried that the new deputy factory director would interfere.
Because she has plenty of ways to deal with him.
But I was still very touched by Director Hao's kindness.
Her success is inseparable from the strong support of the factory's leaders.
Then, through Director Hu, Lu Qiaoge learned some inside information that outsiders didn't know.
The new deputy factory manager is named Kang Yuxing. He was originally assigned to the place where Wei Sixin used to live, but I heard that Kang Yuxing disagreed, saying that he did not want special treatment. But actually, it was his wife who disagreed and went to find him. Maybe he was disgusted that Wei Sixin had lived in that house.
The factory assigned me to Building No. 1 again.
Building No. 1 is mainly inhabited by senior engineers, and it's a very nice building.
But now Kang Yuxing's wife has come to his workplace again, saying she wants to move to the old house, the one Wei Sixin used to live in.
At this moment, Lu Qiaoge, Director Hu, and Huang Juan were all in Lao Hu's office.
A smaller meeting is held before the main meeting.
Then we also have to wait for Kang Yuxing to arrive.
Upon hearing this, Lu Qiaoge asked in surprise, "Then what is he doing all this time? Is it because Building No. 1 doesn't meet his requirements?"
Huang Juan didn't hide anything from Lu Qiaoge and said directly, "I have to tell you about this. It's quite a coincidence. The family living across from Kang Yuxing is Engineer Yuan from the research institute, and his wife is Kang Yuxing's ex-wife."
Lu Qiaoge's eyes immediately lit up with a gossipy gleam.
My goodness, what a coincidence!
Lu Qiaoge didn't know much about Building No. 1 because it wasn't under the jurisdiction of Xiangyang Subdistrict Office.
According to the jurisdictional division, it belongs to Qianjin Subdistrict Office.
Huang Juan smiled and looked at Lu Qiaoge: "You little rascal, you're really getting excited about this."
Lu Qiaoge smiled and said, "Because this is such a coincidence, it's quite funny, isn't it? So, is it awkward now?"
"Of course."
"So now... can Lin Junfeng move back to the house he used to live in?"
“Kang Yuxing swapped houses with someone else. Where are there any vacant houses in our factory now? Kang Yuxing’s wife, Kong Fanrong, swapped houses with Chief Engineer Li, who lives across from Engineer Yuan, so that she wouldn’t have to live in the house that Wei Sixin used to live in. Chief Engineer Li is currently living in Lin Junfeng’s house. It took him several days to settle down.”
This isn't child's play, moving things around like this.
Although people are not rich now, there is a saying: "Even a broken home is worth a fortune."
When it comes to daily life, there are always a lot of things in the house, and it's exhausting to tidy up after just one trip.
If it weren't for the forceful order from above, Chief Engineer Li probably wouldn't have moved back to his original house.
But the question now is, can Director Hao and his team forcefully issue orders?
I bet even Kang Yuxing would feel embarrassed.
Old Hu said, "Why bother making a fuss? Besides, as long as you have nothing to hide, what's the big deal about living across the hall?"
Then Lao Hu glanced outside and said, "That's Deputy Factory Director Kang's car. Let's go out; he's here."
Kang Yuxing got out of the car, his thoughts still lingering in his mind.
I can't quite describe how I feel right now.
Bitterness? Sorrow? Or deep regret?
If he hadn't been so hasty and impulsive back then, and had waited a little longer, wouldn't things be different now?
Who would have thought that his ex-wife, whom he hadn't contacted for almost nine years, would actually come to Jiangcheng? She got married and was living across the street from his house.
However, he had already arrived at Xiangyang Subdistrict Office by then.
On the surface, this area is under his jurisdiction, but he also knows in his heart that the food factory under the Xiangyang Subdistrict Office now has direct access to higher authorities, and he would be disliked if he interfered for no reason.
I'm here today to meet everyone and reassure them.
Therefore, Kang Yuxing forcibly pushed all these thoughts to the back of his mind.
What can we do?
He has no solution at the moment.
This isn't about living across the hall from each other at all.
Director Hu, along with Lu Qiaoge and Deputy Director Huang, came out to greet Deputy Factory Director Kang.
After introductions and pleasantries, both sides were very warm and open-minded. Then, Director Hu cheerfully led them towards the conference room, saying as they walked, "We should have met a long time ago, but Deputy Factory Director Kang has been too busy. Fortunately, we all have time today so that we can get to know each other better and carry out our work more effectively in the future."
Kang Yuxing was also all smiles.
"I'd heard that the businesses in Xiangyang Subdistrict were thriving. Although I've only been here a few days, I've already felt their vibrant energy, which is truly heartening!"
These young people are all very eloquent.
Upon entering the large conference room, the dozen or so attendees immediately greeted Deputy Factory Director Kang with enthusiastic applause.
At this time, Kong Fanrong was at the military factory's housing management office.
Her face was calm, but she was in a very bad mood.
Who would have thought that Wen Guishuang would also be working at this factory?
And now they live right across from her house.
This thing is really persistent.
Director Zhang of the Housing Management Office already knew about this. He glanced at Kong Fanrong's face and said, "Comrade Kong, as you know, the factory is currently building a new building, which is expected to be completed in October."
Kong Fanrong frowned. How could she possibly wait until October?
Suddenly, my gaze fell on the area of the military representative's family compound.
Then she asked Director Zhang, "Are the military representative's family compound all occupied by the military representatives stationed at the factory and the guards?"
Director Zhang shook his head: "No, that's not it. They only lived there part of the time."
After all, this is a military factory, not a military factory.
