Chapter 142 Rumors



That day, as soon as Qin Hanshu arrived at the office, she felt that people were constantly looking at her.

This is especially true when you arrive at the Labor and Personnel Department’s office.

She was a little confused.

As soon as I sat down, Wang Yinghui, who was talking to someone else, came over.

"Xiao Qin, have you adapted well during this period?"

Qin Hanshu had already learned that Zhou Weiguang was going to work for the Municipal Bureau of Commerce, which was the superior unit of the department store. One of Zhou Weiguang's old leaders became the head of the Municipal Bureau after he was demobilized.

Wang Yinghui fully understood this, so he took good care of her from the beginning.

——Although Wang Yinghui seems to have a rather upright personality, his work style is definitely not as it appears.

However, after entering the unit, Wang Yinghui handed her over to Wu Yingxia and did not give her any special care.

Qin Hanshu had a bad feeling when he came over to greet her and thought about the abnormality that happened when he entered the office today.

She said calmly, "I'm adapting well. Sister Wu takes good care of me. Thank you for your concern, Chief."

Wang Yinghui's mouth twitched, and he nodded, "That's good. Including Sister Wu, everyone in our department is very nice. If you don't understand anything, just ask them."

Qin Hanshu: "I will."

After Wang Yinghui left, Sister Zheng opposite stood up and sat on Wu Yingxia's chair, looking at Qin Hanshu with a subtle expression.

Sister Zheng was a quick-talker, unlike the others who liked to beat around the bush, so she said directly: "Xiao Qin, everyone is saying that you and Ye Zhongping are old acquaintances?"

Qin Hanshu was stunned and shook his head: "No, I didn't know him before I joined the unit."

"Then why are you eating together?" Sister Zheng's expression became more complicated.

"I didn't realize, Xiao Qin, that you're quite good at dealing with people. You've only been in the company for a few days, and you can already eat with Ye Zhongping."

"I was wondering why you didn't go to the cafeteria with us that day. It turns out you went out to eat with someone."

Speaking of eating, Qin Hanshu remembered the shared table that day.

So this is the crux of the problem.

Guangde Building was so close to her workplace, so it was normal for her to be seen by her colleagues. However, she and Ye Zhongping had only been at the same table for a few minutes before they were seen. This was really unlucky.

"Hey, you're talking about that!"

Qin Hanshu raised his voice.

"I'm pregnant, so I had a poor appetite that day and wanted to eat something light, so I went to Guangde Building to eat plain noodles."

"Everyone has eaten at Guangde Building, so you should know that there are many people on the first floor, so everyone shares tables. I just happened to share a table with Director Ye."

"What old acquaintances? Dining together? Where did this rumor come from?"

Qin Hanshu's expression showed displeasure.

After hearing this, Sister Zheng first focused on Qin Hanshu's pregnancy, "You are pregnant? Why haven't I heard you mention it?"

Qin Hanshu said: "I just checked it out, and I want to tell everyone after it's more stable."

Wu Yingxia had told Qin Hanshu these words. One day, when Qin Hanshu was retching, Wu Yingxia saw her and Qin Hanshu casually told her about her pregnancy.

Wu Yingxia said that the first three months of pregnancy are unstable and it is best not to make a fuss about it, otherwise the baby might be scared away.

At this point, Wu Yingxia came in. She was sent by Wang Yinghui to do something today, so she came a little late.

Wu Yingxia had obviously heard the conversation between Qin Hanshu and Sister Zheng, and half-jokingly said, "Xiao Zheng, Xiao Qin is pregnant, so she has to report to you specifically?"

Sister Zheng quickly said, "How could that be! We just happened to be talking about this and I was just asking casually." Then she stood up and gave the chair to Wu Yingxia.

Wu Yingxia sat down and said with a smile: "I told Xiao Qin not to make it public at the beginning of her pregnancy, and she listened to me and didn't say anything."

Sister Zheng said: "Sister Wu, you are right!"

Wu Yingxia added: "Although Xiao Qin has only been in our company for a short time, I have seen that she is an honest child after getting to know her."

Sister Zheng nodded and agreed: "Indeed!"

"So, let's stop discussing those messy rumors." Wu Yingxia looked more serious. "After all, Xiao Qin is from our department. If you encounter other people talking about this, please help clarify it."

Colleagues in the office all said, "Of course!"

Soon, people kept coming to Qin Hanshu to chat, asking her when she got married, what her husband did, and teaching her parenting tips.

When he heard that Qin Hanshu was a military family member, his expression immediately changed.

"Oh, damn those who spread rumors, they are spreading rumors about military families!"

Rumors will eventually get distorted.

Maybe the people who saw Qin Hanshu and Ye Zhongping at the beginning did not convey much information, but now, Qin Hanshu can tell from the way others look at her that the incident has some romantic connotations.

Explanations alone might not be enough to dispel the rumors, so she simply announced the news of her pregnancy.

You can't put all those dirty things on a pregnant woman.

With the help of Wu Yingxia and the spread of her identity as a military dependent, the rumors about her affair in the unit soon disappeared.

When she got off work that afternoon, she clearly felt that the strange looks she received in the morning had decreased a lot.

After getting out of the elevator, Qin Hanshu saw Cao Jing.

"Sister-in-law? Are you here to buy something at the department store?"

Cao Jing came over, took Qin Hanshu's arm, and said with a smile: "I said I came to pick you up and go home together."

Cao Jing winked at Qin Hanshu and said, "Your Zhou Weiguang came to see me specially and asked me to go to get off work with you and look after you. It just so happens that I don't have any performances in the next month, so my schedule is relatively stable. I will come to pick you up every day."

Qin Hanshu laughed, "He's too nervous. I told you I can be alone."

Cao Jing said: "Even if he didn't come to see me, your brother has discussed this with me. The main thing is that this is your first pregnancy after all, so it's a good thing to be a little nervous."

It only takes about ten minutes to walk from the chorus to the department store, so it’s not that troublesome.

Qin Hanshu said gratefully: "Thank you, sister-in-law."

Cao Jing stopped and said softly:

"Xiao Shu, I'm two years older than you and I'm your sister-in-law. It's not a big deal for me to take care of you. I hope you won't be so polite to me. Being polite is for outsiders. You can be more casual with your family."

Qin Han was silent for a few seconds. With Cao Jing's arm around him, he took over the show. The smile on his face slowly faded, but his eyes became more intimate. "Yeah."

Cao Jing patted Qin Hanshu's hand, and the two of them walked out together.

After taking two steps, Cao Jing turned her head and looked in one direction, wonderingly asking Qin Hanshu: "Is that person looking at you?"
