After saying that, she quickly disappeared into the bathroom. Wei Heng watched her retreating figure, a complex expression on his handsome face.
He said calmly, "News from Shanghai says that Tang Zhenzhen has regained a lot of her memories after receiving treatment with new drugs introduced by the Hong Kong government, and she will soon be fully recovered."
Rong Zhaonan pondered for a moment and replied, "Okay, I can be discharged from the hospital next week. I'll arrange a flight to Shanghai then."
I don't know when that rabbit will come back, so I might as well wait for her in Shanghai.
"I've been reassigned as Director Ou's confidential secretary, and I won't be able to accompany Director Ou back until the end of the month," Wei Heng explained.
The position of confidential secretary actually also carries on the duties of half bodyguard, but the career prospects are much better than those in garrison units, and the level of experience is also completely different.
Rong Zhaonan nodded approvingly: "This position is indeed more suitable for you."
Wei Heng gazed at Rong Zhaonan, a hint of gratitude flashing in his eyes: "Rong Zhaonan, thank you."
He later learned that it was his younger sister who pleaded with Rong Zhaonan that led to his transfer to Director Ou's side.
Rong Zhaonan smiled faintly: "You have the title of bomb disposal hero, but the tinnitus and dizziness left over from years of bomb disposal work mean that you are no longer suitable for front-line work. I am just helping my comrade-in-arms."
Wei Heng looked at him, then finally laughed heartily, and suddenly raised his fist at him: "Yes, comrade-in-arms forever!"
Rong Zhaonan stared at him, and the two smiled at each other, their outstretched fists bumping together.
Wei Heng and Rong Zhaonan chatted about work for a while, while Rong Zhaonan's gaze kept drifting towards the restroom.
He suddenly asked, "Wei Heng, since Tang Zhenzhen was able to recover her memory by receiving treatment with new drugs imported by the Hong Kong government, and your brain nerve damage is similar to hers, could you also receive treatment to recover the memory you lost that night?"
After a moment's thought, Wei Heng replied, "Theoretically speaking, it is possible."
Rong Zhaonan glanced at the toilet door: "Are you planning to receive treatment? The young master of the Ning family is in Shanghai, so there shouldn't be a shortage of medicine."
Wei Heng was silent for a moment before answering seriously: "If someone committed a crime that night, and I need to retrieve that memory to identify the culprit, I will undergo treatment and bring the culprit to justice. Heaven is watching what people do."
Someone in the toilet squatted down like a duck, holding their head in their hands, looking miserable.
Oh no! Why would they have that kind of drug?!
Rong Zhaonan gave a faint "hmm" and said nothing more.
Wei Heng stayed in his ward for nearly an hour, during which he called the nurse to change the IV drip twice, but he never saw A Heng come out of the toilet.
"What's wrong with her? She's had diarrhea for an hour, and her stomach is upset?" Wei Heng looked at his watch and couldn't help but ask Rong Zhaonan.
Rong Zhaonan glanced coldly at the toilet door: "She probably ate a lot in there and choked."
Wei Heng asked in surprise, "???"
...
After Wei Heng left, Aheng, who had been squatting in the toilet for nearly an hour, finally dragged his numb legs out with a pained expression.
"Brother—save me!"
Rong Zhaonan glanced at her coldly: "A true warrior should face the bleakness of life head-on. Helping you keep it from Wei Heng before already went against my principles."
His so-called sister only remembers him when she needs something from him or when she gets into trouble.
"What kind of principles do you have? Just now you were pretending to be afraid of your wife in front of Dean Chen. You know perfectly well that the old dean is especially afraid of his wife, and you also know that he really likes Xiao Ningning. That's why you deliberately pretended to be on the same side as him so that he would let you out!" Aheng muttered under his breath.
"What did you say?" Rong Zhaonan asked, raising an eyebrow.
Aheng immediately fell silent: "He didn't say anything. Captain, you should rest well. Let's hurry back to Shanghai. Ningning must miss you."
Director Ou won't be back in Shanghai anytime soon, so she'll go back first and check on Tang Zhenzhen's condition at the hospital.
Even if she can't destroy those memory-restoring drugs, it's still a head start. If she senses something's wrong, she can make a quick getaway!
Sure enough, after Ah Heng said that, Rong Zhaonan's handsome expression softened considerably, and he smiled slightly, saying, "Mm."
He would soon see that cunning, cute, yet treacherous rabbit girl, and he missed her dearly.
She must miss him a lot too.
...
Guangzhou
"I don't have time to think about men—just look at this batch of goods my scumbag brother got for me, plus the clothes I've brought in, it's enough to fill several train cars!"
A petite girl with two long braids, dressed in drab gray work clothes, sat at a small stall in front of a guesthouse near the train station.
She ate stir-fried beef noodles with kale while drinking chrysanthemum tea.
"Then your boyfriend is at ease letting a young girl like you venture out into the world; he's very open-minded," the stall owner said with a smile.
The middle-aged male boss's gaze swept over the old, bulging cloth bag in the young girl's hand, just like those individual business owners who came to buy goods.
Anyone who frequents train stations a bit knows that these bags are filled with money and tickets.
She just casually placed it on the table.
Unlike in previous years, there have been occasional incidents of individual business owners being robbed, robbed, or even stabbed near the train station when they come to buy goods.
The police have tried their best, but since the opening up of economic activities in recent years, Guangzhou has become more and more prosperous, but public security has indeed deteriorated a lot.
There are always some shifty-eyed people, their eyes darting around looking for easy prey, especially young girls like this...
Uh... not someone to mess with, I wouldn't dare mess with them.
Those people's eyes fell on the two tables of burly men sitting next to the pretty young girl—
They were dressed quite uniformly, all wearing the same overalls commonly worn by chain steelworkers, with caps and vests that revealed their strong, muscular bodies, and each had a long pole for carrying luggage next to them.
All around me was an enamel mug printed with the logo of Shanghai XX Steel Plant, filled with chrysanthemum tea.
It feels like the steelworkers are on a team-building trip, if team-building trips even existed these days.
Ning Yuan looked at the two tables of men around her with great satisfaction, feeling extremely pleased, as if she were experiencing the feeling of being a big sister before liberation.
The feeling of having your money bag on the table and no one daring to snatch it, and having someone glare at you and they're terrified—it's really—satisfying!
"Uncle Jiu, lunch is ready. We still need to go to the dispatch office this afternoon to pay for the freight cars."
Ning Yuan thoughtfully poured a glass of iced chrysanthemum tea for her Uncle Jiu, who was sitting next to her.
Uncle Jiu has been following Ning Yuan to Guangzhou these past few days and has had a truly eye-opening experience. He's also become much more affectionate towards Ning Yuan, this little girl.
"You should eat too. Bringing us all to Guangzhou this time has caused quite a bit of trouble."
The steel mill offered him good benefits, but he was restless at heart and still wanted to take the young people out to see the world.
Ning Yuan smiled and said, "Not at all, this is exactly what I'd like to receive!"
If she can turn Uncle Nine into a partner, she won't have to worry about highway robbers running rampant until the year 2000 when she escorts goods north!
As she was speaking, she suddenly realized something was wrong.
A familiar figure flashed by in the distance.
She looked closely and felt that the figure looked a bit like Cha Meiling?
