Chapter 149: Worry
Li Hongying saw that Li Cuiying was in a bad mood, so she didn't dare to provoke her these days, for fear that she would lose her temper.
I didn't dare let her do the housework, I did it all by myself.
The only thing she dared to ask Li Cuiying to do was to ask her to run errands or buy some things.
"Cuiying, we're going to eat dumplings later. We're out of vinegar at home. Go to the service center and get a bottle of vinegar."
"Got it." Li Cuiying took the vinegar bottle and went to the service center to get vinegar.
When passing by the auditorium, I saw Erzhuang and Sanzhuang from Director Zheng's family feeding a big black dog.
The dog was big and looked very ferocious. When someone approached while it was eating, it would immediately make a warning sound.
If you get close to it, the dog will protect its food and even bite you.
Li Cuiying had been frightened by the big dog before, and would stay away from it every time she passed by.
He stared at the dog for a long time, and suddenly an idea popped into his head.
Thinking of this, she waved to Erzhuang and Sanzhuang: "Erzhuang, Sanzhuang, come here, I have some chocolate candies here, do you want some?"
If Erzhuang and Sanzhuang heard there was chocolate, they would be fools not to eat it!
Two people came up to Li Cuiying and said, "Eat!"
"Then you have to do me a favor!" said Li Cuiying.
"Okay!" With the temptation of chocolate, the two agreed happily, "What can I do for you?"
Li Cuiying lowered her voice and said, "Your dog is so powerful, can you lend it to me?"
"How to use it?" Er Zhuang asked.
"You'll know when the time comes. Leave me your phone number and I'll look for you later."
"make a deal."
Li Cuiying kept her promise and gave the two people two pieces of chocolate.
The two foodies took the chocolate and ran away, then went back to play with the big black dog.
The next day, the weather was gloomy and it snowed for the second time since the beginning of winter.
This time the snow was heavy, and goose-feather-like snowflakes fell in the yard, covering the earth with a layer of silver.
In the evening, Lu Chen came back from a meeting at the division headquarters, holding a document in his hand, with snowflakes falling on his shoulders and hat.
As soon as he entered the room, Liao Qing saw that he was covered in snow and was extremely cold, so he stood up, made him a cup of hot tea and handed it to him.
"Drink some hot tea to warm yourself up first."
Lu Chen took the teacup, thanked him, drank a few sips of hot tea, and felt that the coldness in his body was dispelled a lot.
He casually threw the document in his hand to Liao Qing and said in a relaxed tone: "Look at this, I just got it."
Liao Qing took the document, opened the file bag, and found that in addition to the plan issued by the division headquarters, there was also an order specifically for Lu Chen.
He was about to stuff the order back, but Lu Chen waved his hand, indicating that he could take a look.
"It's okay, just look at it, it's not a secret anyway." Lu Chen said as he took off his coat.
Liao Qing nodded and looked at it carefully.
After reading it, he stuffed the document back into the brown paper bag and said, "This is a good thing. You can go with peace of mind. Wu Yue, the chief of staff and I will handle the affairs of the regiment."
"Yeah. I'm relieved." Lu Chen turned around and looked at the heavy snow outside the window, as if he was worried about something.
Liao Qing was his work partner. Even if Liao Qing couldn't guess 100% of his thoughts, he could at least guess 70% or 80%.
The young man has been married for less than half a year. He is still a newlywed and has not had enough intimacy with his wife. Now he is away for two months, and he must be unable to let go.
"Does Xu Nuo know?" Liao Qing asked, "Did you call her and tell her?"
Lu Chen shook his head: "No, I came back directly from the division headquarters after receiving the order. No rush, I'll talk about it when I get home in the evening."
"That's right." Liao Qing said with a smile, "Xu Nuo is not an unreasonable person, he will definitely not get upset, don't worry. You can go to Beijing City without any worries, I, your sister-in-law and Liao Hong will take care of you here, there won't be any problems. Besides, two months is not a long time, it will pass if you grit your teeth."
"Okay." Lu Chen nodded, "Then thank you and sister-in-law first."
"What are you thanking me for?" Liao Qing stood beside him, looking at the heavy snow outside the window. As the sky darkened, he said, "It's rare that there's nothing important in the group today. Go pick up your wife from get off work. It's snowing hard today and the roads are slippery. There will be a lot of people trying to squeeze into the bus. Xu Nuo is skinny and may not be able to squeeze in."
Liao Qing thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "It's snowing so heavily today, and there's nothing to do at the regiment headquarters. Why don't you drive to pick up Xu Nuo? There must be a lot of people on the bus right now, and Xu Nuo is so thin that he may not be able to squeeze in."
"Okay." Lu Chen put down the teacup, turned around, picked up his coat and put it on, then walked out, "Then I'll go first."
Liao Qing smiled and waved his hand: "Go ahead, be careful on the road."
When Xu Nuo got off work, it was already dark.
She stood at the entrance of the clinic, watching many people walking towards the bus stop in groups, apparently wanting to take the bus back home.
She was a little worried. There were so many people on the bus and she didn't know if she could squeeze onto the bus smoothly.
Just as I was thinking about it, a military vehicle slowly approached from a distance, and its headlights looked particularly bright in the snowy night.
The car stopped in front of her, the window rolled down, Lu Chen's face was revealed, with a faint smile on his lips: "Get in the car, the snow is heavy and the road is not easy to drive on."
Xu Nuo happily opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat. While brushing off the snowflakes on his body, he said with a smile: "You came just in time. I was just wondering how to get home."
Lu Chen turned his head and got close to her face, with a hint of teasing in his eyes: "Should I give you a reward?"
Xu Nuo blushed and patted him lightly, but still leaned over and kissed him on the face, smiling, "Is that all right? Are you satisfied?"
Lu Chen chuckled, said nothing more, started the car and drove home.
On the road, the snow fell heavier and heavier, and the world outside the car window seemed to be shrouded in a layer of white gauze, appearing exceptionally quiet.
After a busy day, Xu Nuo felt a little tired. She leaned back in her seat, staring at the snow scene outside the window in a daze.
Seeing that she was very quiet, Lu Chen glanced at her sideways, freed up a hand and held hers: "What are you thinking about?"
Xu Nuo shook his head: "No, I'm a little tired, just want to relax for a while."
"Well." Lu Chen said, "I have something to tell you."
"What's the matter?" Xu Nuo asked casually.
Lu Chen paused and said, "The division headquarters has issued an order that I have to go back to Beijing for a business trip, which will last for about two months."
Xu Nuo was stunned for a moment: "You want to go to Beijing? Two months..."
Lu Chen thought she was reluctant to let him go and felt uncomfortable, so he said, "It's not a long time, it's over in a flash."
Xu Nuo curled his lips: "Okay, go ahead!"
Her reaction was somewhat beyond Lu Chen's expectations. He felt something was wrong: "You seem very happy that I went to Jing City?"
