Chapter 194 Fate Unknown
After leaving the office, Song Lubai returned to Yuan Lin. She clutched her chest and said, "Comrade Yuan, the leader still hasn't criticized me, but I really feel bad. How come I can't even handle such a small matter?"
Yuan Lin smiled and said, "It's alright, I'll go take a look over there this afternoon."
We need to show this newcomer what he's capable of.
Song Lubai hesitated, "Can your legs walk that far?"
Yuan Lin: "It's alright, I'll walk slowly."
Song Lubai said gratefully, "Comrade Yuan, to be honest, I'm terrified of going to that office over there. Every time I go there to get something done, I never succeed. I don't know what's wrong with the people there; they always keep us on our toes..."
Based on Song Lubai's previous words, Yuan Lin was able to analyze the current situation. Listening to Song Lubai's rambling, he already regarded her as a naive young girl who knew nothing and posed no threat at all.
"It's a good thing you came back, otherwise I don't know how I would get by."
Yuan Lin's eyelashes fluttered, and she suddenly realized that she had been tricked into coming back.
It wasn't because the leader valued her, but because she couldn't do her job well, so she tricked him into coming back.
But looking at her silly expression, he felt that she wasn't very bright.
In the afternoon, not long after Song Lubai arrived at work, Lou Yuchun called her into his office.
They also arranged for her to deliver materials to companies below, which were all errand-running jobs.
I ran around all afternoon and by the time I got back to the office it was almost time to leave.
Yuan Lin had been waiting for her, and as soon as she returned, he said, "Comrade Song, the forms from this morning have been stamped."
Song Lubai's eyes lit up, and she said with admiration, "Comrade Yuan Lin is really capable. They stamped it as soon as you arrived."
"That's great. Your return will help the leaders complete their work more efficiently, unlike me, who can't get anything done."
Yuan Lin's vanity was satisfied, and he said modestly, "Don't say that. When I was your age and just started working, I couldn't do everything well either. Take it slow and don't rush."
The two went back and forth, and both were very satisfied.
Song Lubai was satisfied that she had brought Yuan Lin back; from now on, she would just do odd jobs.
During this time, she will try to transfer back, preferably to another office.
As she strolled back to her department and was about to go to the canteen for lunch, the mailroom staff called her over, saying they had mail for her.
When Song Lubai looked at it, she saw that it was sent by her mother.
Judging by the distance, her mother should have just received the letter she sent back, which probably still contains information related to Chen Weiliang.
Thinking of Chen Weiliang, Song Lubai decided to go to the hospital to see him after she finished eating.
She ate steamed buns with red bread and hot water, and then opened the letter her mother had written.
Upon seeing the contents of the letter, Song Lubai was incredulous.
Her mother actually divorced Lin Dahai!
In that dream, her mother never divorced Lin Dahai until she died.
Why are you divorced now?
The letter mentioned a man named Lu Jianxi, whose mother said he was Lin Dahai's nephew.
Lu Jianxi…
She frowned and thought for a while, but had no recollection of this person.
She had met all of Lin Dahai's relatives, but she didn't remember this person.
The letter contained limited information, and Song Lubai only had a vague understanding of the reasons for her mother's divorce, unable to learn more about the inside story.
From her perspective, her mother's divorce from Lin Dahai was a good thing, and it made her feel a bit better.
Upon arriving at the hospital, Song Lubai learned that Chen Weiliang was still unconscious, so she went to the doctor's office to ask how serious his condition was.
The doctor looked her up and down and asked, "What is your relationship with him?"
Song Lubai: "He and I are from the same hometown. I happened to run into him this morning when he had the accident, so I called someone to take him to the hospital. If there is any need to pay the fees, I can go to his workplace to find someone."
The doctor shook his head and said, "We've already contacted his employer, so you don't need to worry about the expenses."
The doctor couldn't bring himself to tell Song Lubai about Chen Weiliang's condition. He shook his head and said, "Could you help contact his family? His condition is still very dangerous. He lost a lot of blood when he was brought in this morning. After a blood transfusion, his vital signs improved a bit, but the situation is still not optimistic. He suffered severe blows to the back of his head and abdomen. We're afraid..."
Song Lubai felt heavy-hearted.
She couldn't help but think that if she had rushed out the moment she saw Chen Weiliang being beaten, his injuries might not have been so severe.
But if she could do it all over again, she felt she probably still wouldn't have rushed out.
After leaving the doctor's office, Song Lubai went to the ward to take another look at Chen Weiliang, who was lying there quietly. Then she went to the back of the Bayi Power Plant, which Chen Weiliang had mentioned before.
The dormitory area was behind her, and she couldn't get in at all.
She didn't intend to go inside; rather, she wanted to pass a message through the gatekeeper to Chen Weiliang's former boss.
Chen Weiliang once said that if anyone needed his help, they could leave a message with the security guard here.
Chen Weiliang seems to have been transferred to the Grain Bureau. She doesn't know if the Grain Bureau has a phone number, so she can only try her luck here.
"Comrade, I need to trouble you to tell Chen Weiliang's former leader that something has happened to him. He is currently in the hospital and his life is uncertain. The hospital wants to notify his family because his condition is very bad."
The security guard on duty asked, "Is this Comrade Chen, who used to work alongside Yang*jun?"
Song Lubai nodded. "It's him. His condition is critical. I need you to tell his superiors to contact his family as soon as possible. I will write a letter to his parents, but it will take a month for the letter to reach them."
The staff member on duty replied solemnly, "Okay, I will notify you as soon as possible."
A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and after Yuan Lin returned, Song Lubai's life became much easier.
After Yuan Lin returned, she no longer needed to write reports, and she rarely saw Vice Minister Lou. She was only responsible for running errands assigned by Yuan Lin.
Although she didn't learn much from running errands, it was very easy to do things that didn't require much thought, and she could also meet a lot of people in the process.
The following are the company leaders, clerks from various departments, and staff from the department store, vegetable company, and state-run restaurant.
In a short period of time, she really got to know a lot of people. When she went to restaurants, the waiters would give her extra rice, and when she went to department stores, the sales clerks would be very polite. In short, she had many advantages.
As more and more people were arrested, not only was the police station overwhelmed, but the supply and marketing cooperative also ran out of space.
When Song Lubai returned home from get off work at noon today, she was surprised to see Wei Yang in the courtyard.
Wei Yang came today on official business.
He was assigned to escort the eighteen captured vagrants to the Sixth Division.
The two hadn't seen each other for a while, and Song Lubai took the opportunity to treat him to a meal at the ministry's canteen today.
After the two finished getting their food and sat down, Song Lubai noticed Yang Lizhen following Minister Zhou in.
Seeing Yang Lizhen reminded her of what Wang Yang had said that day.
Should she tell Yang Lizhen?
