Chapter 154
Lu Qin's smile didn't fade. Now, he was going to personally bring the biscuits and letter he had been planning to mail.
After careful calculation, he had been in Ningchuan City for less than a month.
Since he was going back within a week, Lu Qin planned to take Thursday and Friday off, which would combine with Saturday and Sunday to form a four-day holiday. His schedule was a bit tight.
Halfway up the stairs, Lu Qin stopped and said, "You guys go back first. I have something to do."
Song Zuwen helped take the book from his hand and saw him turn around and run downstairs.
"Let's go back first. He probably has something serious."
The three figures quickly disappeared into the stairwell.
In the Zhixing office building, Dou Zhiwen heard a knock on the door. He covered the lid of the rice bowl and said, "Come in."
As soon as Lu Qin pushed the door open, he smelled the smell of chicken from the cafeteria. His eyes fell on the lunch box on the table and he understood everything.
"Lu Qin, is there a problem with a classmate?" Dou Zhiwen looked up and saw it was him, and immediately stood up. He had been very happy as a homeroom teacher recently, and Lu Qin, the class monitor, had played a significant role in that.
Lu Qin left the door open and walked to the table. "My classmates are all very nice and have been very studious lately. I'd like to ask you for a leave."
Dou Zhiwen paused as he turned around and said, "You need to ask for leave."
"It's Thursday and Friday this week. Sorry to bother you, teacher. I'll copy the notes from my classmates."
His classmates have copied his notes so many times, it's time to give some feedback.
Dou Zhiwen sat down again, opened a drawer, and took out a piece of paper. On it was a form for applying for leave from the college. "Just sign it."
He routinely reminded me, "Don't delay your studies. Come back as soon as you can."
"Don't worry, teacher." Lu Qin quickly signed the back of the form and reminded him with a smile, "Thank you for troubling me, teacher. By the way, the chicken in the cafeteria is delicious today. Please eat it while it's hot. I'll be leaving first."
Lu Qin put down his pen and motioned for him to continue eating.
Dou Zhiwen was at a loss whether to laugh or cry as he watched him leave.
After asking for leave, Lu Qin will attend classes diligently for the rest of the time.
During the last class on Wednesday afternoon, he reminded his classmates, "I'm going to be off in two days. It won't be easy for me to take notes then, so you might have to trouble yourselves."
It's no big deal to take my own notes. "Don't worry, squad leader. You can just come back and copy our notes when the time comes."
Lu Qin looked at the boy who was speaking, his eyebrows raised, "Thank you, classmate."
He also solved the last thing.
Lu Qin started packing his luggage that night.
There are two door gods at the entrance, one big and one small, representing his brother-in-law and nephew respectively.
Lu Qin squatted next to the luggage, moving back and forth until he reached a place where the light was not blocked by them.
Lu Chunnong walked past the two gate gods and stuffed the packed biscuits into the side of his luggage. "Is this enough?"
"That's enough, thank you sister." Lu Qin stuffed the things down and pressed them down, then closed the suitcase.
He stood up and said, "Let's go, let's eat."
Kong Dongdong stretched out his legs and followed him eagerly, and Kong Yue deliberately slowed down his pace to catch up.
The next morning, Kong Yue sent him to the train station and said, "Call me when you get there."
Lu Qin responded with a smile, "Don't worry, brother-in-law."
It’s a really different feeling to take the train back to Laiyang County alone.
Lu Qin felt like he had just arrived after a good sleep.
Standing at the gate of Life Food Factory again, the gate is still the same gate, and it is still as bustling as before at the time of getting off work.
Grandpa Huang, the gatekeeper, was sitting on a bamboo chair basking in the sun. He half-closed his eyes and suddenly a young man appeared in his sight. The more he looked, the more familiar he felt. He suspected that his presbyopia had worsened. How could Lu Qin appear here when he went to college?
Until his signature smile appeared before my eyes.
"Uncle, I'm basking in the sun."
Uncle Huang struggled to get up from the chair, and Lu Qin quickly helped him up.
Mr. Huang stood up, surprised and smiling, "Why are you back? Didn't you go to school?"
Lu Qin waited until he was steady before releasing his hand. "You have such deep feelings for our factory, I came back to see you."
Hearing his words, Mr. Huang was happy. His face was full of wrinkles. He waved his hand without any hesitation and said, "Alright, alright. I know you have something to do. Go in quickly."
Everyone else has to register, except Lu Qin.
In the factory office, the phone on Director Ren's desk remained silent for two days.
"Do you think the dorm manager forgot? Why didn't Comrade Lu call back?"
At least you can tell them when you receive the letter.
Director Ren was thinking about what Lu Qin asked about Deli Food Factory. He put the thought out of his mind, but it soon came back to his mind.
"Wait a little longer."
Lu Qin stood at the door of the factory office, feeling incredibly familiar. He slowly walked to the door and knocked. "Hello, everyone."
The young comrade's voice was clear and smiling.
The people from the factory office turned around and saw Lu Qin standing at the door with a smile on his face. He was wearing a white shirt and army green pants.
"Secretary Lu."
"Secretary Lu is back."
Lu Qin poked his head in. "Don't call me Secretary Lu. I've already resigned. I haven't been back for a long time. I miss you guys a little bit."
He greeted them before stepping inside, glancing at the seat where he had sat before, which was still empty.
When Director Ren saw him appear, he actually felt relieved.
Lu Qin greeted them with a smile and walked up to the leader. "Just in time, Director, I've brought back new products."
"What new products?"
When he returned, he didn't talk about opening a branch factory. His luggage was a military green handbag with a zipper that opened easily.
Lu Qin pulled out a tightly wrapped object from the bottom and unwrapped it. "Director, try it."
Director Ren looked at him suspiciously and took a piece from it.
Lu Qin picked up an extra piece and put it on the lid of his cup. He turned around and said with a smile, "You all have a try."
"Then we won't be polite." The biscuits smelled a bit overbearing.
One by one, they came forward and picked up a piece, which was exactly the right amount.
Lu Qin also hid one piece in his hand and gave it to his predecessor, Section Chief Zhao.
Deputy Director Zhao gave the boy a meaningful look and winked at Director Ren's position.
As expected of a partner who had worked together for some time, Lu Qin immediately received his hints and encouragement.
"Secretary Lu, how is college?" a man eating a biscuit asked him.
"University is okay. I'm studying economics, and it's a really fun class. Thanks to my time working at the food factory, I was able to apply what I learned to practical applications. It turns out some things have patterns. You guys are all doing well too. I see our food factory is getting better and better."
"Okay, okay, everything is fine. Tell us more about college."
The smile on Lu Qin's face grew even more pronounced. He blended in with them, making it seem as if Secretary Lu was still the same Secretary Lu. Some of those who had originally objected felt a moment of guilt.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, a meeting on opening a branch factory was held.
The meeting was held in the original office of the factory director. His current workplace has moved to the factory office.
A group of people gathered around a long table.
Lu Qin brought a kettle and poured water for them.
"Thank you, Secretary Lu." They didn't think there was anything wrong.
Until Lu Qin sat at the end of the table, they waved, "Secretary Lu, just sit next to Director Ren. Don't go so far."
Lu Qin pulled out a stool and said, "No, no, I'm embarrassed to be an outsider. I just came here to listen to your meeting. It's not a problem."
The more polite the young man was, the more sensible the older staff thought he was.
Director Ren watched them coming and going and directly called Lu Qin's name, "You sit here, everyone knows each other."
Lu Qin's eyes swept across the faces of the two deputy factory directors and other staff members. Everyone had different expressions, but they were all smiling. A smile appeared in his eyes. "Then I won't be polite."
When he went over, he brought the kettle with him, ready to pour them tea at any time.
When Lu Qin sat down, he sighed silently. It was a very familiar feeling.
Director Ren cleared his throat and said, "Alright, let's continue with the discussion we had a few days ago."
