"Which specific organization made the arrangements for you by the leaders of the staff hospital here?"
A storm was brewing in Qin Yanzheng's deep eyes as he tried his best to suppress his emotions and asked Song Lan.
"It was the colleague in charge of internal personnel transfers in the hospital who told me. He said it was a notification from the hospital leadership."
Song Lan responded.
"When you start working in the security department, do the leaders there give you any difficulties?"
Qin Yanzheng asked.
"No."
Song Lan shook her head.
Qin Yanzheng: "Are you sure?"
Song Lan hummed in agreement.
Qin Yanzheng: "You seem to have forgotten that you were assigned to the night shift only two days after you started working, and that you've had a lot of night shifts scheduled lately."
"That's a work requirement; I can't expect the department head to give me special treatment, can I?"
Song Lan had no other thoughts about being assigned to the night shift.
Qin Yanzheng remained silent for a moment, then said, "You shouldn't have kept this from me until now!"
“I have already explained it.”
Song Lan didn't think she had done anything wrong.
“You mean well, and I appreciate your good intentions and am very touched, but do you know how much self-blame and guilt I felt after I found out about those things?”
Qin Yanzheng's eyes were almost overflowing with tenderness, and he slowly spoke in a low, hoarse voice: "As the eldest son in the family, when Dad had an accident and Mom was critically ill, I couldn't help at all, and I didn't even get to see Mom one last time."
As the eldest brother, when my younger siblings were most helpless and wanted to rely on me, I couldn't give them even a shred of warmth; as a husband, when you needed me, I wasn't by your side, and instead, you, a frail woman, supported the family and became the pillar of support for my second brother and the others..."
"You don't need to blame yourself. After all, you didn't do it on purpose. You were busy with work. If you could have gotten away, I believe you would have been there for us. Besides, the truth is that when the accident happened at home, you were seriously injured and unconscious, facing a life-or-death situation."
"With that in mind, you're even less likely to have made a mistake. My second brother and I are your family, and even Mom and Dad, I don't think they had any complaints at the time!"
"But it hurts here!"
Patting his chest lightly, Qin Yanzheng's eyes were slightly moist, and his voice grew lower and hoarse as he said, "It hurts so much, you know? You never tell me anything, you only tell me good news and never bad. What have I, Qin Yanzheng, done to deserve such a good wife like you?!"
But what did I give you after we got married? Just a marriage certificate, and then I was gone for more than half a year..."
"Why don't you calm down first?"
Seeing that the man's emotions were obviously unstable, Song Lan couldn't help but feel a little worried.
"I'm fine."
Qin Yanzheng shook his head, while secretly calming himself down, and said, "From now on, don't hide anything from me. We are husband and wife. No matter what difficulties we encounter, we should face them together and find a solution together."
"good."
Song Lan nodded.
“I know you are very independent and self-reliant, but as your husband, I actually hope you can rely on me and trust that I will help you solve all your problems!”
Qin Yanzheng stared intently at Song Lan. Upon hearing this, Song Lan smiled and nodded again: "Okay!"
"Don't just agree verbally."
"Won't."
"Okay, I believe you!"
"I'm so happy that someone stood up for me and solved my problems!"
Song Lan smiled, her beautiful eyes crinkling, her tone light and cheerful.
Qin Yanzheng's expression softened, and a smile slowly appeared on his handsome face. He steered the conversation back to Cui Hongxia and Deputy Factory Director Qian: "I have already asked the leaders to use their connections to investigate the things that Deputy Factory Director Qian and his wife have done. I have also received a response from the leaders, saying that Deputy Factory Director Qian has been suspended from his duties pending investigation. Based on the evidence we have so far, it is enough to make him lose everything he has now. Maybe soon Dad will be able to leave the forest farm and return to his original job."
Song Lan was happy but also a little worried. She said, "Back in Beijing, I heard that Deputy Factory Director Qian's father-in-law is a big leader at the head office. Would he protect his daughter and son-in-law?"
Qin Yanzheng: "Don't worry, Deputy Factory Director Qian's father-in-law is also under investigation. Even if he doesn't protect his daughter and son-in-law now, as long as he has ever done anything favoritism in his work, he won't get away with it either. To put it another way, even if he hasn't done anything, he'll probably be forced to retire early."
Song Lan: "Thank you!"
"Are you being too formal with me again?"
Qin Yanzheng said, feeling wronged, "I am your husband."
"I know, I know, it's my fault, I shouldn't have thanked you!"
Song Lan looked helpless.
"What else did you do behind my back?"
Song Lan suddenly asked.
"Want to know?"
Qin Yanzheng raised an eyebrow.
"Um."
Song Lan nodded without hesitation.
"But I don't want to talk about it now."
Qin Yanzheng shook his head, his dark eyes filled with a smile.
"Why?"
Song Lan asked.
"I learned it from my wife."
Qin Yanzheng smiled, his eyes filled with undisguised doting affection.
"You really won't tell me?"
Song Lan snorted and crossed her arms, feigning anger: "Then I'm going to get angry!"
"Don't be angry, okay?"
Qin Yanzheng's voice returned to normal, cold and magnetic yet gentle, which made Song Lan feel a tingling sensation, causing her face to involuntarily flush red.
Why should I listen to you?
Song Lan blurted out those words almost without thinking.
A playful glint appeared in Qin Yanzheng's dark eyes. His wheelchair was already quite close to Song Lan, and at this moment, he suddenly leaned closer to her. "Your face is very red, is it because of me?"
"No, that's not true!"
Song Lan was already blushing and her heart was pounding because of the man's previous words. Unexpectedly, the man launched a surprise attack, and her heart beat even faster in an instant. At the same time, a strange heat suddenly rushed to her head.
Her exquisitely beautiful cheeks were so red they looked like they were about to bleed!
Song Lan's most direct feeling was that the temperature on her face was rising rapidly.
"He wasn't telling the truth."
Qin Yanzheng's lips curved into a wider smile, his eyes overflowing with doting affection. He chuckled softly, "I'm in a very good mood right now!"
Song Lan felt that her self-control was terrible today. Before she came to this world, she had long since developed the ability to remain calm even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of her. Who knew that in this world, ever since she realized she had feelings for the man next to her...
She was so easily swayed by the other person's emotions. To be honest, she was not used to this feeling, but she did not dislike it. On the contrary, she felt a little happy about it.
However, she would not admit at this moment that it was because of the other party's abnormal behavior.
Yes, we must hold on and refuse to admit it!
"It's your business if you're in a good mood. I'm sure I'm telling the truth. Whether you believe me or not is none of my concern."
Song Lan forced herself to calm down, determined to maintain her public image and prevent the man from continuing to tease her.
Stay calm!
Stay calm!
Song Lan, you can do it!
While silently encouraging herself, Song Lan heard Qin Yanzheng laughing even louder.
"Wife, your face is all red, but you look especially beautiful like this, I like it."
Warm breath sprayed on Song Lan's ear, and she felt she could no longer maintain her composure. She stood up abruptly and said, "I'm a little hot, let's go to the yard for some fresh air!"
