Chapter 82: Come to the Door
Thanks to Fu Jiaming's matchmaking, the meeting with the new person in charge of the Sixth Factory was very smooth and the order was settled.
Although the quantity quota for the first shipment was far from the requirement, it could at least be used to temporarily meet the demand, and more could be added in the future when the inventory of blended fabrics catches up.
After the matter was settled, the Zhang family and Xiao Qiao and others in the Little Red Building were informed, and Suning and Yanbei Fu Jiaming set off for home the next day.
During the more than five days of return journey, nothing unexpected happened and the three of them arrived safely in the ancient city.
Following Fu Jiaming's advice, after returning to the city, I did not rush to the factory to report for leave, but instead asked Director Liang to approve three more days, preparing to have a good rest at home.
…
Although she had not lived in the South Gate Courtyard for long, she already had a sense of belonging in her heart.
Lying in a bamboo chair under the grape vine trellis, gazing at the vines on the wall and the blue sky and white clouds in the horizon, my body and mind feel relaxed.
Little Circle finally doesn't have to stay alone in the Utopia anymore, and can come out to accompany her owner and have fun in front of her.
“Woof woof woof~”
"Ning Baogai!"
"Haha~ I knew you were here when I heard Little Circle calling me."
Moving the hand on his face away, Su Ning smiled and watched Luo Shuangshuang trotting into the yard, whose voices were always heard before she arrived.
Today she was wearing a pink top and black bottom short-sleeved trousers. Her two braids were left behind her, and a few strands of hair were scattered on her forehead and face because of running.
Because of her teasing words, she pretended to be fierce and frightened Xiaoyuanquan, but the dog was not afraid and barked at her even harder.
Luo Shuangshuang spread her hands helplessly, "Maybe it's because the charm is too great?"
"Okay little circle, no matter how much I like you, I won't take you home for your life!"
“Woof woof!”
"Hey, what's that expression on its face? Ning Baogai hasn't seen the puppy for a few days. Has it become a spirit?"
Seeing Xiaoquanzi rolling her eyes at him in a humane way, Luo Shuangshuang exclaimed in amazement.
"What nonsense are you talking about? You are not allowed to become a spirit after the founding of the country, right?"
"Hehehe~ Yeah."
I sat up and poured her a glass of boiled water. Knowing that she didn't like brown sugar water, I didn't add sugar to it.
She took the enamel cup and drank half of it without any hesitation, then burped. Luo Shuangshuang looked at her with sparkling eyes, her red lips curved, and her little thoughts were almost written on her face.
"Hehe~ They're on the table in the room. They're all for you, go get them yourself."
“Hahaha~”
Winking at her mischievously, Luo Shuangshuang excitedly put down the cup and ran into the main room.
There were several beautifully wrapped gifts placed on the pear wood coffee table.
A tube of orange-red lipstick and a sky-blue silk scarf embroidered with dark green Xiangfei bamboo.
A box of chocolates, a bottle of pink perfume, and a high-end ladies' watch similar in style to the one she was wearing now.
Luo Shuangshuang couldn't help spinning around happily while holding the pile of gifts.
The Luo family has three employees... oh, now there are four employees. The Luo family is wealthy and she is the only daughter in the family. Naturally, she has seen these rare and good things.
But the meaning is different. This is the first gift specially chosen for her by her good friend who she recognizes from the bottom of her heart!
"Ning Baogai, woo~ I like you so much!"
"So happy?"
"Of course~"
Jumping out of the house with a smile on her face, Luo Shuangshuang placed the gifts in her hand on the low table next to the recliner, and played with them one by one while talking.
"Oh, I almost forgot!"
He patted his forehead, and immediately a red spot appeared on his fair forehead. You can imagine how hard he patted it subconsciously.
She seemed not to feel the pain. Luo Shuangshuang moved closer to her and said, "Two days ago, I came back from get off work and just finished watering the flowers and plants in your yard. When I locked the door and went home, I ran into a female comrade who came to see you on the street."
"She looks about the same age as us, and her accent is similar to yours. She said her name is He Yue. Is she your best friend?"
What best friend? She even said that she is Ning Baogai’s best friend.
How could a best friend never hear Ning Baogai mention him? A best friend who doesn't even know his exact address?
Luo Shuangshuang pouted and felt uncomfortable for a moment, glancing at her with the eyes of a heartless man, "But I didn't tell her where your house is~"
The kind that looks like she has a lot of ulterior motives and her eyes are rolling around, just like those fawning "friends" around her who say one thing in front of her and another behind her back.
"He Yue?"
Why did she come to Shonan Ancient City?
Could it be...
There was a chill in his eyes, and Su Ning lowered his eyes, his fingers unconsciously tapping on the armrest of the rocking chair.
According to the estimated scores given to her at that time, He Yue was still a long way from continuing her university studies.
Given the He family's serious patriarchal mentality, the best they could do is find her a job to increase her status so she can find a good man to marry quickly, and then they can ask for double or even triple the return.
How could such a large amount of betrothal gifts and the opportunity to exchange benefits for He Yu allow her to run so far away and escape from control?
"How did she find this place?"
"From what she said, it seems that she found the textile factory first. As for how she found the way to the textile factory, I don't know. What? Are you really good friends?"
"Who hasn't been blinded once or twice in their youth?"
“Poof~”
Luo Shuangshuang laughed so hard at her words that she fell backwards and laughed. She wiped her eyes and said, "Before I could ask her from the side, she proudly told me that she came here to study at Shonan University."
"With this IQ, could it be that he bought the spot from somewhere?"
Su Ning paused with his fingertips, looked at her and nodded seriously, "It's very likely."
Although Shonan University is not as famous as the other two, it is also a nationally renowned university.
It is still a long way to go before the registration day for school starts, and Xiangnan University is in Xingcheng, not Gushi. What does He Yue want to do by coming here at this time?
Luo Shuangshuang picked up the palm-sized perfume bottle again and sniffed it gently. "From her attitude, I think she won't give up easily until she finds you."
"Ning Baogai, how about I help you..."
Holding her clenched fist, Suning said with amusement, "That's it? Tickle someone?"
"Hey, do you think I'm stupid? As long as I spread the word, there's no need for me to do it myself. There are many people willing to help."
"Okay, okay, you are worthy of me."
"Of course~"
The two looked at each other and laughed.
There was no problem for both of them to lie down on a big bamboo chair.
Luo Shuangshuang squeezed onto the chair and lay down beside her, not caring about the heat. The bamboo chair made a creaking sound as it shook.
"By the way, Ning Baogai, why didn't you choose to go to college?"
"What about you, why not?"
She had seen the future and knew that universities would soon be closed, and even she felt it was unlikely that she would be able to complete her medical studies in one or two years.
Rather than wasting that time and energy on learning half-baked stuff, it’s better to do this now.
"I'm really fed up with that group of people. It's so much better now. I can work in advance and earn my own money to spend. I don't have to blame them anymore. It's so free and happy!"
Luo Shuangshuang half-lay on her shoulders, watching her long, curly and very thick eyelashes trembling slightly, and his hands felt a little itchy.
"Hey, Ning Baogai, let's not talk about them anymore. Come with me to my grandma's house tomorrow~"
"Going to your grandmother's house?"
"Yeah, you still have two days off. I'll take a day off tomorrow too. The weather is getting hotter and hotter. Going to the countryside is not only fun but also a way to escape the heat and relax. How about it?"
"Where is it..."
"Dong Dong Dong~"
They all stood up at the same time, and Suning waved to the person who wanted to open the door, "Grapefruit, I'll go."
What is coming will eventually come. Besides, even if it is really He Yue outside the door, is there any need for her to hide?
"I'll go with you."
Two people and a dog came behind the gate, one in front and one behind.
Hearing the knock on the door again, she opened it without warning and nimbly turned sideways to avoid the person who was about to fall.
"Huh~"
He Yue was so frightened that she almost fell down. She pouted unhappily, "Ningning, why are you here?"
"Hi, Comrade He, nice to see you again. I forgot to introduce myself as Ning Baogai's best friend Luo Shuangshuang."
She emphasized the word "best friend" and seeing the face of the person opposite her suddenly change, Luo Shuangshuang smiled even more brightly.
"Since you are also Ningning's friend, we can also be considered friends. Then why didn't you tell me last time that Ningning lived in here!"
"Why should I tell you? Who else is your friend?"
"you!"
