Chapter 75
Li Xiang listened, but raised her head and said, "Comrade Lu, making choices is a personal matter, but you should always listen to the people around you, otherwise you will suffer a great loss."
Lu Qin paused for a moment, then gave her a thumbs-up. "You're right."
The older generation once said, "If you don't listen to the advice of the elderly, you will suffer losses in the near future." Moreover, nothing is absolute.
Look at Zhu Hong who is still digesting the content, and then look at Li Xiang to see how aware she is.
He was simply teaching her a lesson today, teaching her that whether it was choosing a partner or not, one should not judge things by appearances alone.
Lu Qin thought back to the man's reaction just now and felt more and more sorry for him. He was about to say something.
Comrade Li Xiang across from her seemed to have made up her mind. "Actually, I think Comrade Zhou still has some good points. I'm going to go back and get along with him again."
She wasn't angry anymore. Her mind had completely calmed down, and she was truly searching for the essence behind the question. She simply took the question as a test for the gay man.
Before she finished speaking, she asked for his opinion, "What do you think?"
She clenched her hands on her thighs, still a little uneasy about the decision she had made.
Lu Qin turned his head and coughed, thinking that you are quite fast in making decisions. Most people are hesitant and uncertain when asking questions, but they have actually thought of the answer long ago, and they just want to get others' approval.
But Lu Qin still wanted to reduce his influence on her choice.
He carefully recalled what had just happened. After the question was raised, Comrade Zhou went from being surprised to being calm and then politely leaving. This showed that this comrade had good family education and only one question exposed a lot.
He said, "Comrade Li, you can get along with each other and make your own decision. You know whether the shoes fit you or not. As your friends, Comrade Zhu and I will silently support you behind you."
Zhu Hong finally spoke after a while, "I feel the same as Comrade Lu."
Li Xiang smiled contentedly, "Yeah."
Lu Qin added, "I think what I said just now was a bit abrupt and frightened that man."
Since she wants to be with him, she has to take care of the follow-up matters.
"Don't worry." Li Xiang rarely understood what he said, and she would simply apologize to him.
When the matchmaker came back, she found that everyone had dispersed. She was confused and slapped her thigh, not knowing whether the deal was successful or not.
Zhou Ziqiang walked out of the state-owned hotel, looked back, and walked away with his head down, realizing that the blind date was definitely a failure.
When he returned and faced the matchmaker's questions, he just said he would wait and see, without mentioning any details of the blind date table.
But unexpectedly, Li Xiang found him that afternoon.
Li Xiang waved to him from afar, her generosity revealing a hint of restraint, "Comrade Zhou, are you free tomorrow?"
Zhou Ziqiang had many thoughts about his arrival, and said honestly, "You, you are not angry."
Li Xiang smiled and said, "What did you say? Why are you so angry? And I want to apologize to you. I scared you before, didn't I?"
She had the idea of getting in touch with him seriously.
If Lu Qin were present, he would probably sigh: Comrade Li has evolved.
Zhou Ziqiang touched the back of his head under her bright smile and said, "No, I'm not angry."
So for a period of time afterwards, Li Xiang, who had made rapid progress in some aspects, began to observe Comrade Zhou in detail, rather than just being limited to his poor words.
She soon discovered that Comrade Zhou was a man who loved to work but rarely said sweet words. He was sincere in nature, which really confirmed Lu Qin's statement.
Living with people who do more than they talk, that is, people who can really do things rather than just talk, will make life much easier in the future.
Li Xiang seemed to have gradually figured out the criteria for choosing a future partner.

Kong Yue took out the suitcase he had used in his early years. There was not a speck of dust in the suitcase, but there was a smell of homemade mothballs when it was opened. He quickly opened the suitcase, and while there was still sunshine, he opened the suitcase, cleaned it, and then put it in the sun to dry.
"The province is located in the north, so the weather is probably going to be colder than at home. You should bring two more coats." Lu Chunnong took all the clothes on the clothesline and folded them neatly one by one.
"Auntie will make you some pancakes to eat in the car." Sun Laimei was not idle either.
This was their reaction after they learned that Lu Qin was going to the provincial food representative conference.
Lu Qin completely acted like a hands-off boss, but he never stopped talking, answering one question after another.
"Sister, aunt, please take less. I want to bring some things back later."
He was quite touched. What happened?
The day before leaving, he went to the supply and marketing cooperative to find several female comrades and asked them what they wanted to buy, and also asked Qin Shi by the way.
On the morning of departure, Lu Qin said goodbye to his nephew with red eyes, rode his bicycle alone, and followed his brother-in-law all the way.
After sending him to the entrance of the food factory, Kong Yue took down the suitcase from the back seat and whispered to him, "Be careful on the train and keep an eye on your luggage."
He no longer tells him not to cause trouble. Outside, it is good not to cause trouble, but if someone bullies you, don't be afraid of causing trouble.
Lu Qin took the luggage and was in the mood to tease him, "Okay, brother-in-law, I get it. Don't miss me too much like Kong Dongdong."
From yesterday until now, he has felt like an older child.
Kong Yue stood tall and straight, looking at him with deep eyes, ignoring the previous words, "Stay close to the main group, don't wander around. Your sister has sewn the money and tickets into your coat. Eat what you need, don't save."
The playful smile on Lu Qin's face gradually disappeared. Don't ask why. If you ask, it's because he was very touched.
But when he thought about coming back in a week, he calmed down a lot, "Okay, brother-in-law, you go ahead and do your work. I'll be back next week."
Kong Yue put his hands behind his back and gave him a few more instructions before leaving.
Lu Qin left his bicycle with the security guard, Mr. Huang, and joined the main group with his suitcase in one hand.
"Lu Qin, your family just brought you here." The female comrade who asked the question had just seen the scene clearly. They all came here on their own.
Lu Qin said frankly, "My family was worried, so they wanted to send me here."
"That's right, Comrade Lu, you're still young. Seventeen years old, right?"
Lu Qin: "..." He almost forgot.
Amidst the banter, several leaders finally arrived.
Everyone was carrying large suitcases and bags, except for the leader who only had a simple briefcase. Of course, it was possible that his secretary was carrying the rest of his luggage.
Lu Qin glanced around. Including the leadership, there were only seven people in total. From the factory office, the director himself and the factory secretary were absent. There was one person each from the production and technical positions. Next up were him and Section Chief Zhao, and two others Lu Qin didn't recognize. He was the youngest.
The director of their food factory was half a head shorter than him. He wore a gray work suit and had a pen pinned to his chest. He was exceptionally thin, but looked energetic.
The factory issued letters of introduction to a group of people very quickly.
You still have to get a ticket though.
Just as he thought of this, he heard the rest of the voices.
He raised his hand, "I'll go, I'll get the ticket."
The factory had already booked the tickets, and they paid for it all.
The factory director felt that the voice sounded familiar, and a young man's figure flashed before his eyes.
Lu Qin took the letter of introduction and ran over to get the ticket back, which took only five minutes.
After boarding the green train, Lu Qin handed his ticket to Section Chief Zhao for arrangement. The journey was about seven hours long, and he had purchased a sleeper ticket for one leg of the journey.
The author has something to say:
Let's just discuss the issue. Regarding the girlfriend and the mother, legally, it's not an issue. As a son, you have a duty not to rescue and must choose the mother. Otherwise, if all the conditions are met, it would constitute a crime. Of course, if it's the wife and the mother, that's another matter. It's a bit awkward.
Well, I've been very busy recently, so updates have been a bit rare.
