The young couple who hadn't seen each other for several days finally met during dinner time.
Looking at Shen Anning who was eating anxiously across from him, Cao Jingheng poured a glass of water, "Anning, eat slowly, otherwise you won't be able to digest it. You are a doctor yourself, you should know this little thing."
After swallowing the beef in his mouth, Shen Anning finally opened his mouth and said, "Hey, you don't know, I'm studying two majors now, and Teacher Cheng is very strict. My seniors like to test me in class the most. Um... My head hurts."
Seeing the girl so tired that she had dark circles under her eyes, Cao Jingheng felt distressed. Since the start of school, they had squeezed out time to meet in the past few months. Cao Jingheng has now completely succeeded in making a name for himself in Peking University Medical School. Shen Anning's classmates and younger students all know that Shen Anning's boyfriend in the medical school is a five-good youth.
Because Shen Anning was very busy every day, so busy that she often had no time to eat dinner. On nights when she didn't have to work overtime or have any tasks, Cao Jingheng would wait at the entrance of the college with a lunch box to feed her.
"Don't worry, I just finish class a little later than others, but I still get enough sleep. Teacher Cheng is not as inhumane as you think." Seeing Cao Jingheng's face as if he was going to settle the score with Mr. Cheng, Shen Anning took his hand and shook it.
"You, then I'll send you home early later, have a good sleep, and sleep away these dark circles under my eyes." He had originally wanted to take Shen An Ning to the cinema to watch a movie, hold hands, and kiss, but looking at his partner's haggard face, he couldn't bear it after all, so he had to give up his little welfare.
It's not like Shen An Ning couldn't see through his little thoughts. Looking at the man, who clearly had the image of a tough guy with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, at this moment, he made people feel aggrieved.
"Okay, the teacher said that he would give me five days off for National Day. I will finish the task ahead of time and spend some time with you during those days, okay?"
"That's what you said." After getting Shen An Ning's assurance, Cao Jingheng thought secretly in his heart that he should take advantage of An Ning's busyness in the next few days to work overtime, and make time during the National Day to take her out for fun.
Everyone in the police station was a little confused. These days, their Director Cao was rushing to help his colleagues work overtime, and he didn't allow anyone to refuse. He would get angry at anyone who refused. The first thing he did when he arrived at work every day was to look at the night duty roster and pick someone to take over the shift.
Director's Office.
After sending away another person who came to complain about Director Cao working overtime, Fang Zhigang became a little restless. Cao Jingheng was a combat hero and had strong personal abilities. Sitting at his desk, Fang Zhigang had no idea how many possibilities were going through his mind.
"Could this guy be heartbroken and using work to numb himself?"
The more he thought about it, the more restless he became. Fang Zhigang walked to the door of the investigation office, paced around the door several times, and finally knocked on the door.
"Come in."
"Director, why are you here? Do you have any work arrangements?"
Fang Zhigang patted Cao Jingheng on the shoulder and said, "Jingheng, sit down. I came here to talk to you about something, but it's not about work."
"Director, please sit down. If you have anything to say, just tell me directly."
After carefully considering her words, she said, "Jingheng, you've been very enthusiastic about your work lately. I heard from colleagues at the bureau that you've been working overtime for them every day. What's wrong? Don't you have to accompany your partner at night? Did you break up?"
Cao Jingheng was furious. Whatever he was told was something he didn't like. "Director, please don't talk nonsense. My partner and I are doing fine. But why are you asking?"
Fang Zhigang was a little embarrassed when he heard that the two hadn't broken up. "Hey, it's because you've been acting like crazy lately. I asked you to work overtime last night as if it was killing you, and now you're angry when I don't let you work overtime. The people below are scared by you, so you came to me to explain the situation."
Cao Jingheng was really speechless. He was really being too self-indulgent with these people. If he had known earlier, he would have made arrangements directly during the National Day instead of caring about them.
"Director, I'm just thinking about taking a break during the National Day holiday. I can then take my daughter An Ning out to relax and have some fun. I don't want to be on duty during those days. Do you understand what I mean?"
Fang Zhigang was so surprised when he heard this. "You're the one who made the class a priority. Those guys down there are really being overly sentimental. Okay, it's okay. I approve. You'll be given a few days off."
Although there are still chaos in some places outside and there are major cases to be solved, there is more than one director in the bureau. It will be no problem for Cao Jingheng to take a normal vacation when the time comes. He can just return the vacation during the Chinese New Year.
However, at this time Fang Zhigang did not dare to say openly that it was a fake, otherwise this gangster would definitely make a fuss.
The day before the National Day holiday, Shen Anning packed up her things and got into Cao Jingheng's car under the reluctant and accusing gaze of her little niece. This time they were going to drive to Inner Mongolia.
It's more than 400 kilometers, and it will take about half a day to get there by taking a shortcut. There is no speed limit now. As long as there is no one on the road, you can drive the car as fast as you can without worrying about the car breaking down. This is because the road is not easy to drive on. Otherwise, according to Cao Jingheng's driving ability, he can get there in four or five hours.
"Why did you think of bringing me to Inner Mongolia?" On the way, Shen Anning ate fruit, looked at the scenery outside the window, and felt the breeze, and her mood became much more relaxed.
"Back in the Republic of China, part of the property on the grassland belonged to the Cao family. Later, some were donated, some were confiscated, and now there are only about fifty acres left. The old housekeeper is helping to manage it. The mutton we ate before was sent from there. If you see him, just call him Sixth Uncle."
"It's going to snow in Mongolia soon, so now's a good time for us to go there. We can also get some extra meat to feed you."
