Chapter 78 Confession
Hearing that it was a young man, Ding Guo did not ask any further questions. He guessed that it was probably Ding Jianguo who was looking for trouble, and that something might have happened at home.
It could also be that Pan Dingfeng came to her to plead for mercy? It should be to hold her accountable!
I don’t know if Uncle Xiao summoned the man named Pan and whether he got anything out of him.
The more perfect scenario would be to just detain the person for a few days, but that's unlikely.
Thinking of Pan Dingfeng, Ding Guo couldn't help but think again. After what happened that day, there was no telling whether the marriage discussion would continue.
But the entire Ding family, including Pan Dingfeng himself, was very upset. She had feedback from the backstage, and it was extremely upsetting.
Thinking all the way, Ding Guo was not in a hurry. He walked slowly towards the factory gate while cracking melon seeds. From a distance, he only saw a tall figure wearing a green military uniform and carrying a military green briefcase standing at the gate. He didn't see any annoying people.
After walking a few steps forward, Ding Guo looked at the face under the brim of the military cap and blinked in surprise.
Is she dazzled? That person is...
"Comrade Ding Guo!"
Ding Guo's eyes widened instantly, and he quickly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Comrade Pei?"
She hadn't finished eating the spicy dried fish yet, and she actually saw the person who made it. Ding Guo was quite surprised.
Pei Che was a little nervous, his palms were full of sweat, but seeing the surprised reaction in Comrade Ding's eyes, he breathed a sigh of relief, his smile widened, but he still stuttered a little when he spoke: "Comrade Ding Guo, hello, long time no see!"
After he finished speaking, he realized that he had stuttered and a blush appeared on his cold and pale face, which made Ding Guo laugh.
She was not shy or embarrassed, she smiled and said, "Long time no see, oh, you are still so beautiful after not seeing you for so long."
She still loves to look at this face, and can eat half a bowl of rice more just by looking at it.
And Comrade Pei Che is even more handsome in his military uniform.
Pei Che's face heated up slightly. He remembered that when they first met, Ding Guo stared at him blankly and said teasing words.
He was good-looking and had been liked by girls since he was young, but Ding Guo was the first one who stared at him so bluntly, and he didn't feel disgusted. Not only did he not feel disgusted, he even thought that the girl's unique 'teasing' was a bit interesting.
Although their eyes only met briefly at that time, he could see clearly that although the girl said she was teasing him, her eyes were very clear and she only showed pure appreciation.
Just like now, she said with a smile that he was handsome, but her eyes were clear without any distracting thoughts.
Pei Che was slightly disappointed. He wished Comrade Ding Guo would have some distracting thoughts about him.
He has all kinds of distracting thoughts.
Moreover, when he saw Comrade Ding Guo again, her appearance had changed a lot. She was paler and had gained some weight than last time. Her already good facial features were now even brighter, which gave him an inexplicable sense of urgency.
"I was passing by Fengning for something, so I wanted to come and see you!"
Ding Guo smiled and said, "Welcome, welcome. Have you eaten?"
"No, Comrade Ding Guo, have you eaten?"
"No!" Ding Guo waved his hand, "Wait for me, I'll go back and change clothes and take you to dinner."
"good!"
Pei Che stood aside, as straight as a pine tree, with the corners of his pretty rosy lips slightly curled up, his eyes sparkling. All the nervousness and anxiety he had felt before coming here had settled down a little, but his heart was still pounding violently.
Not long after, Ding Guo, who had changed into a long-sleeved white shirt and black pants, came out on his bike. When he reached the door, he showed no intention of getting off the bike and simply tilted his head to signal him, "Jump on!"
Pei Che was amused by her bold behavior and said, "Comrade Ding, I'll take you with me."
"Okay!" Ding Guo stopped the car, Pei Che came over and held the handlebars, hung his bag on the handlebars, raised his legs and sat directly on it, saying: "Comrade Ding, come up and sit firmly."
Ding Guo saw that his long legs were lightly touching the ground, holding the car steady, so he went over and sat on it, grabbing his clothes by the waist: "Go straight, and turn left at the second intersection."
The bike started moving steadily, and the cool breeze of late autumn blew on Ding Guo's face. Only then did he realize that it felt a little strange.
From Pei Che's behavior in sending letters and things, she guessed a little bit of his thoughts, but she always felt that this kind of thoughts would gradually fade as the distance between them became too long, and the chances of the two of them being able to achieve a happy ending were not that great.
After all, they had only been together for a few days, and she didn't look very good then. The impression that remained in Pei Che's mind was that of a skinny person with no flesh on her face and dark, yellow, and rough skin. She felt that there was nothing worth remembering about her.
So in response to Comrade Pei's letter, she tried her best to return the gift, so that when the time came to "settle the accounts", she would not have to pay back too much.
But she never expected that this person would suddenly appear in front of her. It would be a lie to say that she didn't feel a little bit upset.
"How long can you stay here?" Ding Guo asked him.
Pei Che: "The car will leave at five tomorrow morning."
Ding Guo raised his eyebrows in disappointment. He was only staying for one day, and it wasn't even the weekend. He could only have two meals at most. What could he do with two meals?
When they arrived at the state-owned restaurant, Ding Guo took him to the window to order food. He generously ordered two meat dishes and dumplings.
The dumplings in this state-owned restaurant are excellent. Ding Guo thinks they are better than those bought in the system mall. Comrade Pei must try them.
Pei Che took out the money and the ticket to pay the bill, but Ding Guo grabbed his wrist and pressed him down hard: "I'll treat you, I have to treat you!"
Pei Che: ...
The warm touch on his wrist just made him feel excited, but then he was shocked by the sudden feeling of power.
He tried to lift it, but it didn't work.
Ding Guo paid the money and ticket promptly. She turned around and saw the shock and confusion on the handsome guy's face. She suddenly realized that she might have been too forceful just now. She looked down at his wrist and asked, "Did it hurt you?"
Pei Che shook his head: "No!"
I'll try to wrestle with Comrade Ding if I get a chance.
He was not wrong just now, Comrade Ding Guo seemed to be very powerful.
His action of raising his hand to pay again was not a bluff. When a person subconsciously struggles and resists, there is still some strength, but his struggle... was not moving at all.
Pei Che found an empty table and sat down. He put the bag he had been carrying on the empty stool next to him and said uncomfortably, "Comrade Ding Guo, I came here so suddenly. I hope I didn't disturb you."
"How could that be? It's nice to meet you."
People still make time to visit her.
Pei Che smiled even brighter and said, "I'm happy too!"
After saying that, his ears started to feel hot again, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "I received the rusks and sweet potato sticks you made. They are so delicious!"
Ding Guo smiled and said, "Spicy dried fish is also delicious, especially to my taste."
Pei Che hurriedly smiled and said, "I'll make it for you when I get back. I also learned how to make bacon and fish from the locals. I'll make some bacon for you to try in a while."
The weather will get colder in the future, and food will be less likely to go bad when sent by mail. He can make more food and send it over, and Ding Guo can just process it slightly when he wants to eat it.
"Okay, but don't send me money all the time. Keep some for yourself..."
As the two were talking, a female police officer in police uniform came in from the door.
Shen Jing invited a friend to have lunch here at noon, and as soon as he came in, he saw a familiar face.
She had a deep impression of Ding Guo, the little girl who made her wrist hurt from taking notes. Of course, the case that left the deepest impression on her was her case.
Not to mention the several people who were following him who were sent to the hospital, the instigator only stayed in prison for one day after confessing his guilt, and someone put pressure on the bureau to release him.
The Revolutionary Committee recently reviewed the case and also checked the files at the bureau. I heard that the man named Qi was arrested and the crime he committed this time was quite serious.
At this moment, facing the person who reported the case that night, Shen Jing felt a little embarrassed.
Although they were ordered to release Qi Guangming by their superiors and the leaders of the institute had to obey, she still felt embarrassed.
After a pause, he strode towards Ding Guo.
Ding Guo also recognized the female police officer and waved to her with a smile, "Public Security Officer Shen, come and have dinner!"
She had a very good impression of Shen Jing, a female police officer who was very patient and hated evil.
"Comrade Ding Guo!"
Chen Jing approached and said in a gentle voice: "You know that Qi Guangming was arrested again, right? Regarding your case at that time... I'm sorry, we had our own reasons for letting him go."
Ding Guo didn't expect Shen Jing to come specially to apologize to her.
She didn't care about this matter at all. She knew at that time that Qi Guangming could not be detained. She didn't expect that incident to do anything to Qi Guangming. But this is what happened later. He was completely suppressed.
"It's okay, it's okay. This is something you can't control. Now that the man has stepped down, I can say that I have avenged myself." Ding Guo said with a smile.
Ding Guo did not accuse them of being impartial. Shen Jing breathed a sigh of relief and exchanged a few words with Ding Guo before going to find his friend.
After leaving quietly, Ding Guo met a pair of concerned eyes. Pei Che asked, "What happened?"
That matter was too complicated to be fully discussed during a meal. Ding Guo waved his hand and said, "It's in the past. If you're interested, I'll tell you about it next time you write to me."
Anyway, every time she wrote a letter, she had to rack her brains to think about what to write, so she told Pei Che about Qi Guangming's incident as a story. She would polish it and divide it into upper, middle and lower parts, and she could reply to the letter three times. Pei Che retracted his gaze and said, "Okay!"
Hearing the waiter calling their table, Pei Che went over to serve the dishes.
After the dishes and dumplings were served, the two of them ate and chatted.
Pei Che heard Ding Guo talk about how busy their food factory was before and after the holidays.
He told Ding Guo about the customs and practices of the South.
It's just that Pei Che was somewhat absent-minded. He came here with a mission, a mission he gave to himself.
I have been exchanging letters with Comrade Ding Guo for some time. I don't know what impression Ding Guo has of me and whether the relationship can develop.
As they chatted, Ding Guo felt that Comrade Pei's expression was becoming more and more serious, and he seemed to have gathered his breath several times. She couldn't help but laugh, so she simply asked directly: "Comrade Pei, do you have anything to say?"
Pei Che nodded solemnly, clenched his hands on his knees into fists, looked at Ding Guo firmly, took a deep breath as if he had made his final decision, and asked solemnly: "Comrade Ding Guo, I, I came here this time to ask you something, that is... I want to date you, can you give me a chance?"
The world is urgent, and Comrade Ding Guo will go back to work soon. He doesn't want to leave this entanglement until the evening, so he might as well get a result quickly, give up early, or settle down early.
Ding Guo had roughly guessed something from Pei Che's embarrassment, but he was still shocked by this plain and simple confession.
After a moment of silence, she smiled and said, "If I refuse...what will you do?"
Pei Che's face turned pale, and his heart sank, but his attitude was firm: "I will continue to work hard!"
After all, this was only the second time they met, and he hadn't expressed his feelings in the letter before. Comrade Ding Guo was not prepared, so it was normal for him to reject him.
He did think about expressing his feelings in a letter, but he always felt that it would be more formal to ask her in person.
It just so happened that this mission would pass through Fengning, so he could take a day off and take advantage of this short period of time to talk to Comrade Ding in person and see Comrade Ding's attitude.
Ding Guo chuckled and said, "Okay, then I'll give you a chance to try your best."
Pei Che felt a chill run down his spine. Although he was disappointed, he was still determined and said, "I will definitely continue to work hard... Comrade Ding, do you mean you are refusing or agreeing?"
Halfway through his words, he realized that what Ding Guo said did not seem to mean what he understood. His heart suddenly rose again. He looked at Ding Guo, staring at her without blinking.
Ding Guo winked at him and said with a smile: "Guess!"
Is there any need to guess?
Pei Che immediately smiled broadly and said firmly: "Comrade Ding Guo, I guess you promised me!"
"Well, I agreed, but it's just a probation period." Ding Guo nodded. He would first find a good-looking guy to talk to, and as for the future, he would talk about it later.
"I am willing to accept Comrade Ding Guo's inspection!" Pei Che's beautiful peach blossom eyes were full of bright light, dazzling and resolute, as if he was taking an oath.
But the voice was a little loud, attracting the attention of the people at the neighboring table. Ding Guo's face turned red, and he quickly whispered, "Let's go, let's go."
Get up and walk out.
"good!"
Pei Che picked up his bag and followed, a silly smile on his face.
Coming out of the state-owned restaurant, Pei Che asked, "Guoguo, do you usually cook?"
Is this it?
Ding Guo gave him a funny look and said, "Fire, but most of it was done by my brother."
"Is anyone home? I brought some ingredients and will make you something to eat this afternoon." He patted the bag in his hand, "I brought the ingredients."
Ding Guo turned around and looked at him with a raised eyebrow, with a satisfied and surprised smile in his eyes: "Okay, Comrade Pei, this courtesy is very much to my liking, keep it up."
But she had to go to work in the afternoon, so she threw the house key to him and said, "No one is home, you can ride back. You know the alley entrance and house number. If you go from this side... I can show you the general route. If you can't find it, just ask for directions."
Pei Che really liked Ding Guo's attitude of not treating him as an outsider, and said with a smile: "Okay."
After sending Ding Guo to the factory gate, he asked, "What time do you get off work this afternoon? I'll pick you up!"
The sense of having a good partner touched Ding Guo's heart.
At least for now, this person's behavior seems to be very much to her liking.
"Come before five."
"good!"
Watching his new and hot partner leave, Ding Guo hummed a little tune in a good mood: "A Lin sister fell from the sky..." and returned to the factory.
