Yuan Sheng is the director. Although what happened today was made clear, anyone with eyes could see that Yuan Sheng was on Lian Qizhen's side. Yuan Sheng was the director and wanted to smooth things over. As an employee, of course I had to give him face and let the matter go.

But Zhu Weidong did not do that. He chose to confront him head-on.

This was something Yuan Sheng had not expected.

He was stunned for a moment.

Zhu Weidong had already held his wife's hand and walked out. The driver Xiao Chen saw this and immediately followed him.

Yuan Sheng and Lian Qizhen were the only ones left in the office.

Lian Qizhen was happy, but her happiness only lasted for a moment, and then she was stunned by Zhu Weidong's actions.

At this time, the person left and they both came back to their senses.

Yuan Sheng was embarrassed. "Zhu Weidong has such a bad temper. He acts like a stubborn donkey. It's like I'm bullying a woman."

"Director Yuan, don't be angry. Zhu Weidong is usually very sensible. This is the first time I've seen him like this. Maybe his wife is here. If he doesn't do something, his wife will be unhappy when he returns home, right?"

Yuan Sheng sighed, "Engineer Lian, you should go back too. I'm fine here."

Lian Qizhen went out obediently. She was not in the mood to talk much with Director Yuan. She felt depressed and suffocated.

When she arrived at her residence, she saw a car coming out from behind in the distance, and Lian Qizhen stopped.

I couldn't see clearly who was in the car, but since it had a Beijing license plate, I could guess who it was at a glance.

The car drove very fast and left the camp in the blink of an eye, then headed towards the city.

After the car drove away, Lian Qizhen turned around and continued walking towards her residence.

The car wouldn't be crowded even if there was one more person, but the atmosphere would be a bit bad.

The Zhu Yaowu brothers didn't know what was going on, so the eldest brother shouted at them to go back with a gloomy face and didn't even let them pack their things.

In the end, I only took my own belongings and clothes with me, and left all the bedding there.

No one spoke up on the road, and the other three treated themselves as invisible.

Ji Ling was also full of doubts. She didn't understand at first, but after Zhu Weidong got angry, she figured it out.

She sat in the middle of the back row, close to Zhu Weidong and holding his hand.

"It's ok to be angry just now, but if you're still angry now, it's just an advantage for them." Ji Ling nudged him lightly with her body, "It's embarrassing for them, but it's not us who are embarrassed."

Zhu Weidong looked down at his wife's smiling face and hummed softly.

Ji Ling also had a smile in her eyes, "You look so handsome today."

Zhu Weidong's face flashed with an unnatural look, and he cleared his throat and said, "I'll stay with you for a few more days in the city, and then you can go back."

"Okay, I'll follow your instructions."

Wang Sanmei sat next to Ji. She looked out the window and breathed a sigh of relief. The rain had finally stopped and the sky was clear.

Zhu Heping laughed dryly twice, turned around and asked, "Sister-in-law, what's going on?"

The eldest brother was really angry this time, and Zhu Heping didn't have the courage to ask him.

Ji Ling smiled and explained the matter, then said, "Your elder brother was angry that Director Yuan drove me away because of the incident, and it was a rumor spread by others. He didn't ask any questions and just made the decision directly, which convicted me."

"This is too bullying. Why?" Zhu Heping said angrily, "I think he is biased towards Lian Qizhen. What a bullshit."

Zhu Yaowu also frowned, "Brother, are we here to disturb your work?"

Ji Ling looked at Zhu Weidong. She also wanted to ask the same question and asked it several times, but Zhu Weidong said no every time.

"No." Zhu Weidong replied.

Zhu Weidong didn't respond.

However, Wang Sanmei understood what Zhu Yaowu meant. He didn't look down on Ji Ling, but he didn't take the Zhu family seriously.

Zhu Weidong didn't stop it, which means he was still angry.

When I was with the Zhu family before, I felt that they were very kind and no different from ordinary people.

It was not until this time that Wang Sanmei realized the difference. It was not that there was no difference, but that the Zhu family had always been very low-key.

We left late, and it was already dark when we arrived in the city, which shows how far away the camp is.

The group first found a place to stay, and after settling down, they went out to look for food.

As for what happened during the day, no one reminded anyone, but after arriving at the place, Ji Ling immediately called home.

After arriving at the camp, she only made one phone call out of fear of causing trouble. Now that she was in the city and was not afraid of spending money, she could call whenever she wanted.

At this time, Niu Niu had already fallen asleep, and only Grandma Zhu and the others were still watching TV in the living room.

After hearing Ji Ling say that she would be back in a few days, Mrs. Zhu asked them to drive slowly.

Ji Ling did not mention what happened in the camp.

Zhu Weidong waited for her to finish speaking, then took the phone and asked Kong Siya on the other end if he wanted to talk to her grandfather.

The son rarely looks for his grandfather when he goes out. Kong Siya knew that her son had something to do and immediately went to call his grandfather.

After Mr. Zhu answered the phone, Zhu Weidong told him what happened during the day, "I will stay in the city with Xiaoling for a few days, and then they will go back."

Mr. Zhu didn't say anything. "Just treat it as a holiday and spend more time with Xiaoling."

As for what his grandson had just said, he didn't say it was right or wrong, but the grandfather and grandson had communicated with each other.

After hanging up the phone and walking out of the phone booth, Ji Ling asked him, "What are you talking to grandpa about?"

"I invited Lian Qizhen back. Grandpa knows that Director Yuan did this today. Grandpa will communicate with the higher-ups to keep me or Lian Qizhen."

Ji Ling was getting more confused. "You asked Lian Qizhen to come back because it's needed for the project, right? What will happen if she leaves?"

"Lian Qizhen has been abroad for a long time, and some of her ideas are not suitable for China. I have reported this to the higher-ups many times, but they have never responded."

Ji Ling's mind was beating fast, "So the condition for her to agree to return to China is that you have to listen to her?"

Zhu Weidong thought about it and nodded.

"So I can't object to living with you?"

"yes."

Ji Ling's face turned cold. "Zhu Weidong, are you stupid? This is a personal matter, how can it be confused with work? I think you are crazy, otherwise how could you agree? I thought it was some last resort, but it turned out to be this, you are such a pig."

After saying this angrily, Ji Ling turned and left.

She was angry, of course she was angry.

This man is usually quite smart, so why didn't he refute when Lian Qizhen proposed this condition?

Did he not want to refute or did he just want to take the opportunity to live with someone? Ji Ling was angry, of course, she believed the last reason. Zhu Weidong watched the person leave, stunned for a moment, and strode after him. Coincidentally, Ji Ling walked too fast and soon blended into the crowd.

One of them was also wearing the same color clothes as Ji Ling. Looking at the crowd coming and going, Zhu Weidong stood there motionless.
