Although Song Lili completely trusted Huang Zhen, she still cared about the progress of the matter and would always ask about it.
When she heard that the matter had been resolved and all she needed to do today was pick up the certificate, she suddenly had the idea of going with Huang Zhen.
Then, the idea grew stronger and stronger, and the restlessness in my heart kept stirring.
Finally, he said to Huang Zhen, "Grandpa, I'll go with you today."
What should she do? She really wanted to see Luo Juan's expression, to see what kind of mood she was in.
I want to see how angry Luo Juan will get when she can't stop herself.
I love seeing you hate me but can't do anything about it, that must be really satisfying, right?
So, to satisfy her curiosity, Song Lili followed Huang Zhen to the X Bureau early in the morning.
To everyone's surprise, Luo Juan showed up right when it was time for work today. It was truly the first time this had ever happened.
Putting aside Song Lili and her companion's surprise, even the staff at Bureau X felt that this was a sign that blood was about to fall from the sky!
Luo Juan, who is always unpunctual for work, actually showed up on time. Isn't that terrifying?
Song Lili smiled knowingly, raising her eyebrows and watching Luo Juan walk step by step to her seat with a half-smile.
Song Lili and the other woman then slowly walked over and sat down. "Now, can we pass through?"
Song Lili could tell from Luo Juan's early arrival at work that the person Huang Zhen had found had left Luo Juan helpless.
This time, Luo Juan had no choice but to obediently go through the procedures.
Song Lili spoke calmly and casually, as if things were just how they were supposed to be.
This made Luo Juan feel very unbalanced. What she disliked most was Song Lili's confident and sure-fire demeanor.
The pent-up frustration that had been barely suppressed inside immediately erupted.
"Who said yours is acceptable? The materials are still not up to standard. Find the problems yourselves, make the necessary corrections, and then come back to go through the process."
After Luo Juan finished speaking, she lowered her head and pretended to pick up the documents on the table to look at them, as if she didn't want to pay attention to Song Lili and the other woman.
Song Lili "..."
Luo Juan, you've got guts! Even at a time like this, you still dare to do this. I have to admire you now.
Song Lili twitched the corner of her mouth, then glared at Huang Zhen. This guy, is he courting death?
Huang was really angry, but she didn't feel the same way as Song Lili.
He just felt that Luo Juan was really ungrateful, daring to stop him.
Yesterday, an old friend told him that the matter was resolved and that he could get the permit today.
And now? Obviously, they're not listening to him!
Huang Zhen was so angry that he turned around and left. He stormed to the post office, found a phone, and took out the phone book he always carried with him to make a call.
"Hello..." By the time the call connected, he was furious.
I don't know what they said, but Huang Zhen got so angry that he yelled, "Shut up!"
"Are you kidding me? Or do you find it amusing to tease me? You actually lied to me and said the matter was resolved?"
"..."
"Pah! Your solution is to tell me to find the materials myself, and then come back for approval, is that it?"
"If that's the case, then what use are you to me? How come you can't even do something this simple?"
Huang Zhen rattled off a long string of words, then slammed the phone down, ending the call.
He was still panting heavily, clearly very angry.
Song Lili silently went up to Huang Zhen and patted him on the back. "Grandpa, don't be angry. Your health is important."
There's always a solution to other problems.
"Sigh..." Hearing what Song Lili said, Huang Zhen couldn't help but sigh. "Tell me, how could this happen?"
Could it really have been done by my old friend?
Thinking about it makes me feel bitter. We've been friends for so many years, and it's come to this.
Seeing that Huang Zhen seemed to have misunderstood, Song Lili hesitated for a moment before speaking up.
"Grandpa, I think you might have misunderstood your friend." He must have been doing him a favor, but he just didn't expect to run into someone like Luo Juan.
"Huh?" Huang Zhen didn't understand and looked at Song Lili with a puzzled expression.
"I think this is probably Luo Juan's fault, not your friend's."
"There's a deep conflict between Luo Juan and me." Luo Juan must think that the fact that he stole her sweetheart must be a very serious matter, right?
"So, whenever it involves me, she'll come out and sabotage things. This time will probably be no different."
"No, my friend holds a high position. When he speaks, no one dares to disobey. He probably doesn't want to help me, so he's doing this."
Huang Zhen didn't seem to believe Song Lili's words, convinced that it was his friend who wasn't helping.
Song Lili was embarrassed.
Could she say that with Luo Juan, such a crazy and mentally unstable person, anything is possible?
Just as Song Lili was about to persuade Huang Zhen, the post office phone suddenly rang, and then someone said in a confused voice, "Huang Zhen? There is no one named Huang Zhen here."
Song Lili didn't even have time to speak and quickly said, "It's us. These are the people who are looking for us. My grandfather is Huang Zhen."
Then, only after the post office staff seemed to realize what was happening did they take the phone and look at Huang Zhen.
Huang Zhen knew who sent the message, but she didn't want to answer it.
Seeing Song Lili holding the phone and waiting there, he finally sighed and let it go.
He was just worried about Lili, worried that she was tired from holding the phone, not that he wanted to answer the call from an old friend.
Yes, that's how it is.
The tone of "hello" was still very unpleasant.
"Really? You're not lying to me?" His tone was clearly one of disbelief.
"Alright, I'll trust you one more time. If things turn out the same this time, then there's no need for us to be friends anymore."
"From now on, let's never see each other again, let's cut ties completely, hmph..."
Then, Huang Zhen hung up the phone, but the expression on her face was much better. The anger from before was gone, and the sadness and sorrow in her eyes were gone.
"Grandpa?" Song Lili called out tentatively.
“Lili, let’s go back. My old friend said that’s not what he meant. He’s already made a phone call. This time, there won’t be any problems.”
On the phone, my old friend seemed quite angry? And also a little embarrassed?
That's true. If an old friend had given prior notice and someone still made things difficult for you, then that old friend would definitely feel very uncomfortable.
This was a blatant slap in the face to him, and in front of someone he knew well. It would be abnormal not to get angry, given how embarrassing it was.
