Chapter 399: Just False
"I took your sister-in-law and Niu Dan home," he whispered, "someone disguised as a nurse stole children this morning, three of them have been lost, all boys.
The hospital was too chaotic, with people coming and going, and the child was gone before I could turn my head. One of them," he paused and said through gritted teeth, "One of the children was in the same ward as your sister-in-law, and was born last night.
It was the time when nurses and doctors changed shifts in the morning, and everyone had just woken up and was running around getting water, going to the toilet, and getting food. There were also many people carrying things to visit the patients!
That nurse was holding the medical records and asking each pregnant woman about her condition that morning. Who would have thought that she was a human trafficker?
An Zhixia couldn't help but turn pale when she heard this, and her stomach ached. "Can't you get him back?"
An Zhiqiu sighed and shook his head, saying, "It should be a gang crime. This has happened more than once or twice. The doctors and nurses have repeatedly reminded us not to let the child leave their sight and not to trust strangers easily.
No lost child has ever been found.
Those people were very cunning, and plainclothes police had staked out their positions many times but had never been able to catch them. "
"Are my sister-in-law and the child okay?" She also sighed helplessly.
"The child is fine, he can eat and poop, but your sister-in-law was so scared that she almost took back the baby's food," An Zhiqiu said with fear.
"We have to be careful in the future. Not only infants, but also older children cannot be left alone." An Zhixia warned: "Human traffickers are particularly cruel nowadays. What would they not dare to do for money? Not to mention children, even single lesbians can easily be abducted and sold to the mountains."
An Zhiqiu glared at her and said, "Alright, if you keep talking, I won't dare let you go out with your sister-in-law."
An Zhixia smiled and stuck out her tongue.
After An Zhiqiu reported the news, he left the dinner he brought with him, made an appointment with her to pick up the four of them early the next morning, and then left in a hurry.
After eating, the children would lie on the kang table to do their homework after digesting their food.
The family compound was particularly lively on Friday nights, and the children's crazy noises were so loud that they hurt people's ears. However, the three children had good study habits, and they usually finished their homework on this night.
An Zhixia lifted up the coffee table, lay on it and began to write this month's manuscript.
There was no school on Saturday, and An Zhixia was too sleepy due to pregnancy, so the morning exercise program was cancelled. The children got up on time, washed up quietly, and memorized the textbooks and words.
When An Zhiqiu came to pick them up, An Zhixia had just gotten up and finished packing.
This was her first time returning to the TV station’s staff quarters since she resigned, and she met many familiar people along the way.
Some of the people on the opposite side greeted her enthusiastically, some just walked past her awkwardly, and some simply ignored her or even said a few sarcastic words.
An Zhixia was not afraid at all and responded with the same attitude.
As soon as the children entered the room, they went straight to the bedroom to see the child, sighing softly.
"Xiao An, deputy station chief, it's really you," several girls from the station quietly came over while going to the bathroom. One of them lived in this building. "My mother just sent my nephew to tell me the news."
They looked at An Zhixia eagerly.
An Zhixia recruited more than 800 people at once, and these people were dispersed to various channels and program teams to visit and learn in turn.
Although the six channels of the TV station have been revamped, and the programs are novel, diverse and interesting, there are very few people who can be inserted into them. She plans to use these people as artists to train them well and make high-quality movies and TV series.
However, she left too hastily, and the specific work content of this group of people has not been determined. The TV station has a lot of advertising revenue, which can support them, but it cannot support idle people.
"Deputy Station An, are we going to be sent back to our hometowns and original units?" There was fierce fighting in the station. There was no longer the previous positive and optimistic atmosphere of everyone working together. These small fry were very nervous.
"No," An Zhixia opened the door and invited them to come in and sit down.
Several female comrades smiled shyly and put down the fruits, canned food, milk powder, malted milk and other items in their hands.
"You are outstanding talents selected from the entire Kyoto. Now that you have passed the organization's inspection, how can you go back?" An Zhixia said with a chuckle.
Aunt Fang was busy pouring tea for several people.
They quickly stood up to stop her, "Auntie, we'll just sit for a while and leave. We're not thirsty at all. Please stop working. We still have to go back to class later."
An Zhixia took out a handful of chocolate candies from her sofa bag and stuffed some into the candies one by one.
"Thank you, Deputy Host Xiao An. We have finished eating the chocolates given by the sponsoring company and we are craving for them." When they saw that they were sent by the chocolate company, they did not refuse and took them with a smile. Two of them could not wait to peel off the candy wrapper and put a piece in their mouths, savoring it carefully with expressions of enjoyment.
"Director Bai, who just arrived, is busy meeting senior leaders. We hardly see him in our station. Deputy Director Li doesn't usually take care of things. He just sits in the office building drinking tea and reading newspapers. Deputy Director Huang is always busy, giving orders to every station and every program, and inserting new comrades evenly into every program."
They were afraid that An Zhiqiu was a man who was not observant enough, so they all came to An Zhixia to complain with a little anger.
"I think she wants to have her own people replace us little by little, just like Comrade An Zhiqiu."
Because it was a company matter, An Zhiqiu couldn't help but sit aside and listen.
"After you left, Comrade An Zhiqiu, Deputy Director Huang found a long-bearded old man in his sixties or seventies from somewhere. He claimed that his ancestors were imperial chefs of the Qing Dynasty. His appearance is quite good. However, a photographer said that the food he cooks is mediocre, not even as good as the chef of the supply and marketing cooperative."
"In addition to this imperial chef, there is also a female host transferred from Shanghai TV station. She is beautiful and has good hosting skills. Deputy An," the female comrade who added asked worriedly, "Is Comrade An Zhiqiu's "Taogui" really going to be taken over by someone else?
This week's poll shows that the ratings of Taogui are a bit higher than usual. Deputy Director Huang has been showing off in front of us a lot, saying, "She paused, then slowly exhaled and said:
"Everything she said was orthodox and easily accepted by everyone. The descendants of the imperial chefs are people with real skills, and they cannot be compared with Comrade An Zhiqiu's few home-cooked dishes."
An Zhiqiu's face was slightly cold, his lips were tightly pursed, and he didn't say anything.
An Zhixia still had a faint smile on her face, and her tone was firm: "Taogui is a food program, and it is also a program that teaches people how to cook. They put the cart before the horse and strayed from the topic. This increase in ratings is just inflated."
