"Since you all already know, I have nothing more to say. We were wrong in this matter, and we are willing to accept the punishment from the company."
Ruan Yuping didn't know what Chen Fengxia had said. Following the rule that the more you say, the more mistakes you make, the more you admit. He only vaguely admitted a mistake and didn't say any more nonsense.
Director Jiang and Instructor Zhao looked at each other, and both saw surprise in each other's eyes.
They hadn't expected Ruan Yuping to admit it directly. Not only had he not passively resisted, but he had also admitted his mistake with such a positive attitude that even the numerous excuses he had prepared were now useless.
But this is a good thing. Ruan Yuping is tactful and it saves them from wasting any more time.
Given Ruan Yuping's positive attitude in admitting his mistake, Jiang Ling didn't give him too much trouble. She simply handed him the completed marriage certificate and informed him, "Go to the Dong Commune to get your marriage certificate tomorrow morning. Report to the Dong Regimental Quarry the day after tomorrow."
Ruan Yuping didn't object, but simply asked, "Leader, how long do I have to stay in the regimental quarry?"
Jiang Ling: "Until the end of this year."
"Okay, I understand." Ruan Yuping nodded, knowing that this was his punishment.
This punishment was not light, because the work in the regiment's quarry was extremely arduous and physically demanding. Apart from those who were exiled as gangsters and factions, only those who had made mistakes would be punished by working in the quarry.
Being fined to work in a quarry is the same as being fined to build a reservoir.
The difference is that Fu Ming and his henchmen were only fined for two months, but he had to stay in the quarry for nine months.
When he came back, Chen Fengxia was about to give birth.
It's hard to say that this wasn't a deliberate arrangement by the company leaders.
Ruan Yuping took the marriage certificate and left the team office with a heavy heart.
He knew that this punishment was not only physically exhausting, but also a blow to his reputation. Even if others didn't say it, they would look at him with tinted glasses in their hearts.
This was even more difficult for Ruan Yuping to accept than having a serious warning recorded in his file.
After leaving the team office, Ruan Yuping turned and walked towards the clinic at the other end. Chen Fengxia was standing at the door of the clinic.
In fact, Chen Fengxia saw Ruan Yuping when he just arrived at the team headquarters, but she was timid by nature and did not have the courage to face the company leaders with him. She held back and did not say a word. She hid at the door of the clinic and peeked in. She did not walk out of the clinic to greet Ruan Yuping until he came out of the office.
"Yuping... the leaders didn't make things difficult for you, did they?" Chen Fengxia looked at him eagerly, her tone hinting at caution.
Ruan Yuping had a sullen face, pursed his thin lips, and ignored her.
Entering the clinic, Chen Fengxia reached out and tried to hold Ruan Yuping's hand: "Yuping..."
Ruan Yuping suddenly threw her away with his backhand: "Don't touch me."
He had no intention of holding back, and the immense force caused Chen Fengxia to stagger back several steps, hitting her back against the wall before she could barely keep her balance.
Chen Fengxia let out a short cry and slammed into the wall in a panic, hurting her shoulder.
Yun Qiao was also startled and quickly walked out from behind the counter and held Chen Fengxia's arm: "Fengxia, are you okay?"
Chen Fengxia's eyes were red, but she shook her head: "I'm fine."
Yun Qiao sighed and turned to Ruan Yuping, advising, "Comrade Ruan, please talk things over nicely. Don't resort to violence. Fengxia is pregnant and her body is fragile. If you push her like that, something could easily get her into trouble."
Ruan Yuping turned a deaf ear to him and said coldly, "Doctor Ye, this matter has nothing to do with you. This is a matter between the two of us. Please don't interfere."
Yun Qiao didn't really want to get involved in this matter.
But this was the clinic, the place she was in charge of. If the couple quarreled here, if anything happened, she would be in trouble too!
"Then you can talk it out nicely. You can use your mouth, but you are not allowed to use your fists." Yun Qiao said, "If not, please leave."
Ruan Yuping agreed: "Okay, I won't do it."
Yun Qiao: "Then, you guys chat."
Yun Qiao returned behind the counter, but kept his eyes on the two people's movements, fearing that Ruan Yuping would start fighting again if they disagreed.
