Who would bother people in the middle of the night?
Ruan Jiu impatiently kicked the bald boy, who grabbed a thick cotton-padded coat from the side, shivering, and went to the door, asking, "Who is it..."
"I……"
Shi Lingheng's voice was deep and resonant. If it weren't for the quiet of the snowy night, the bald boy would have almost not recognized him and hurriedly opened the door.
"Mr. Shi, what brings you here so late?"
Shi Lingheng hummed in response, not really in the mood to talk, and asked, "Where's Ruan Jiu?"
The bald young man scratched his head: "Mr. Ruan is inside."
Shi Lingheng nodded and walked into the house. Ruan Jiu, who was eating peanuts inside, saw Shi Lingheng and asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"
But then, noticing his cold and stern demeanor, she raised an eyebrow and asked, "Have you found them?"
Shi Lingheng sat down wearily, took a big gulp of wine, and said, "He's just a small fry. We still don't have any leads on the real culprit."
Ruan Jiu raised an eyebrow, said nothing more, and simply poured him a drink.
He knew that at this moment, Shi Lingheng might not need someone to talk to.
Wen Yuennan and the others were completely unaware of the changes that had occurred after they left. She went to stay at the Wen family home with her father. When Wen Minting saw her, she forced a smile and went back to her room.
Wen's mother chuckled sheepishly, "Really, this child, we've spoiled him rotten. The room is ready, do you think we need anything else?"
Wen Yuennan shook her head. Coming back from the cold outside, all she wanted to do was rest.
The next day, Shi Lingheng returned to Xiangyang Brigade early in the morning. To others, he looked exactly the same as before, and no one noticed anything different about him. Wen Yuennan, on the other hand, did not return until almost noon.

During the winter, Fan Xiaofan tries to stay home as much as possible, since it's really cold outside. She just goes between the technical office and her home.
I'll have to wait until spring to work on improving the pen before I go to City S again.
I simply put the technical office in charge of answering everyone's questions about technology; the technical office essentially became a mini-classroom.
Even Director Fang, when he has nothing to do, likes to stroll around here; he's quite the learner...
As for Fu Weidong and Ji Sanmei, the two little ones, Fang Xiangwen and Fang Xiangwu, who were on vacation later, also joined them to study together. The two of them were older, but they could still act as little teachers, which made them feel very accomplished.
In addition, you can drink sweet honey lemon tea here.
The snowflakes fall continuously in winter, landing on the earth and bringing a better harvest in the coming year, just like what Fan Xiaofan and his friends are doing now—accumulating strength for a future breakthrough.
This winter, life at the textile factory has been much better than before. After all, in the past, our hands and feet would go numb from the cold, but this year we're working in a warm and cozy environment.
Before they knew it, it was almost the New Year. Fan's father had already sent a letter asking them to go home for the New Year. Zhou Xuehua somehow got the news and followed them. In the end, they all returned to Beidu together.
Fan Xiaofan had no interest in solving other people's problems, so he decided to leave Zhou Xuehua's matter to his father...
The little dumpling naturally had to be brought along, but Zhou Xuehua only asked one question at the beginning and was otherwise indifferent to Fu Weidong. However, Fu Weidong didn't care; he was happy to be with his sister.
……snort
The Fan family seemed the same as before, yet different. Fan Yunli, who used to live a refined life, seemed a bit rougher. When Fan's father saw Zhou Xuehua return, he frowned but didn't say much for the time being.
