Chapter 451 Misunderstanding



At that time, Jiang Jun was not sure whether Li Jingjing could follow the temporary error correction method he taught her in a standard way, and whether it would bring any bad experience to the leader, causing Li Jingjing to be criticized, and then causing himself to be criticized as well.

Seeing Li Jingjing expressing her gratitude sincerely, I finally felt relieved.

Li Jingjing followed Jiang Jun to his office and said a lot of words of thanks. The last thing she wanted to ask was: "So that soldier who came to pick you up after get off work, is he your family member?"

Jiang Jun had been asked this question several times before, so he didn't think much about it and answered casually, "Yes."

She is already married to Chen Yuanwu, so Chen Yuefei is of course a member of her family.

"Oh~!" Li Jingjing's voice seemed to contain a hint of inquiry: "Is he back here for a family leave?"

Jiang Jun didn't want to say more: "Yes, we'll leave after the New Year."

Li Jingjing asked again: "Oh, so do you have someone to pick you up and drop you off at get off work these days?"

Jiang Jun didn't deny that Chen Yuefei was the only one who could pick her up during the few days before the company's holiday. "Yes, the road conditions are bad, so he picks her up and drops her off, which makes my family feel at ease."

Just now at the door, she was going home on her own after get off work, but Chen Yuefei insisted on picking her up because he had to complete the task assigned by his elder brother.

On the way from the courtyard to the office, there were several times when I met colleagues who were going the same way. When they passed by Jiang Yun on their bicycles, they would specially ring the bell to say hello to her.

Jiang Jun thought it would be better for him to take the initiative and save others the trouble of guessing.

Li Jingjing smiled and said, "That's great! When are you free? I'd like to invite you to go shopping in the department store. The New Year is coming soon, and I haven't bought any new clothes yet. I think the clothes you wear are all very nice, and I'd like you to give me some advice."

Jiang Jun actually didn't really want to go shopping, and she didn't want to appear to be a big spender in front of her colleagues.

She and Chen Yuanwu had been going back and forth to the department store several times over the past few days, buying a ton of coats, sweaters, and suits, becoming quite familiar with the salespeople. They'd even asked her if all those clothes were for her wedding, and kindly advised her not to buy so much all at once, as she'd outgrow them once she got married and had kids.

What if she went to the department store with Li Jingjing and happened to meet that enthusiastic salesperson she knew?

Jiang Jun thought about it. After the Lunar New Year, the wardrobes would basically start hanging spring clothes. She would then check out the new styles and ask the tailor to make a few clothes that were different from the popular styles of the year. "Why not go after the Lunar New Year? I'm quite busy right now."

The two separated right after their marriage, and Chen Yuanwu would definitely call back to Siheyuan to find her.

Since she was not sure when Chen Yuanwu would be free from the meeting or when he would call back, she had to stay at home around the clock waiting for the call.

Li Jingjing was a little disappointed, but still smiled: "Jiang, then it's settled!"

Jiang Jun has always tried to reduce her presence in the company, and seldom paid attention to the lives and work of her colleagues. As for Li Jingjing's affectionate overtures, she thought that they were both tests and thanks, and that she didn't necessarily really want to make friends with her. After all, the tone of the invitation was still a bit reluctant and polite.

Jiang Jun attended the morning meeting alone. Several male colleagues in the office did not come back. It was said that it was snowing heavily and the trains and buses were stuck on the road. Some of them could not buy tickets to return home, and even the permits to go to the train station were not valid.

Another Ms. Zhu, whose child had a cold and fever that turned into pneumonia, stayed in the hospital to take care of the child and then took three more days off.

Now all the work fell on Jiang Yun alone.

After a busy day of looking up information and writing reports, Jiang Jun was so tired that his mind was a little confused.

When it was time to get off work, Chen Yuefei came into the office ten minutes early. Seeing that Jiang Jun had no intention of going home, he asked, "Why, do you still need to work overtime?"

Jiang Jun propped her head up with her left hand, her elbow resting on her knees to warm herself. She had lit two charcoal pots, and the office was so warm that it made her drowsy. Her words were weak, "Yeah, I should have asked you to bring me some food."

Chen Yuefei felt obliged to ask: "What do you want to eat? Dim sum? Dumplings? Noodles? I'll go buy it for you right now."

Jiang Jun had no appetite, so he wanted to eat something sweet: "I want to eat sticky rice dumplings, red bean cakes, red bean cakes, donkey rolls... Oh, forget it, there are too many people here now."

As the New Year draws to a close, many people go shopping for New Year’s goods after get off work. The grocery counters in department stores are particularly crowded, and there are long queues.

Chen Yuefei waved his hand: "Okay, I know what to buy, just wait."

Jiang Jun had barely taken a nap when Chen Yuefei came in with a box of roast duck. "Eat it while it's hot, while the skin is still crispy. If you leave it any longer, it will become soft and won't taste good anymore."

He had seen Jiang Jun eat roast duck. Unlike others, he didn't like to eat the duck meat and sauce wrapped in dough together. "I asked him to pack the green onions, radishes, and sauce separately for me. You eat the roast duck first, and then mix the sauce with the noodles."

Jiang Yun woke up at the scent and checked the time. Just half an hour had passed. "Where did you get this? Did you order it a long time ago?"

It takes fifteen minutes to walk from her workplace to the signature roast duck restaurant, and she has to wait at least another hour for the roast duck. Don't tell her that he picked it up!

Chen Yuefei chuckled, "Yun, you're truly a great general! My brother told me to make sure you have something good to eat to replenish your body. I thought I'd just buy you a roast duck, but when we got to the roast duck restaurant, they only had one left. I took out my ID to buy it for our leader, and the other man watched me take the duck away."

Jiang Jun chuckled: "Okay, I'll be your leader again."

After finishing the roast duck, Jiang Yun used boiling water to dissolve the chopped green onions in the sauce, mixed the noodles, and shared them with Chen Yuefei in an 80% and 20% ratio.

Just as Chen Yuefei was praising Jiang Yun's cooking skills, Li Jingjing came in again. "Jiang, what's delicious to eat? The whole corridor is filled with delicious food! Oh, did your family bring you food again?"

Jiang Jun pushed the lunch box forward and said, "Sister Li, try it."

Li Jingjing looked at Chen Yuefei and declined with a smile: "You guys eat."

Jiang Jun didn't know how to be polite. If someone refused to eat, she would not give in. She turned to Chen Yuefei and said, "The tea leaves are on my table. Make your own tea. There's hot water in the water room now. I'll go wash the lunch box."

Chen Yuefei snatched the lunch box away: "You should make tea. It's warm in the room and the corridor is windy. I'll go wash the lunch box. I know where the water room is."

He couldn't remember whether he should drink black tea or green tea after eating the duck, and the woman who came into the office had a gossipy look on her face as if she was trying to find out some information, and he felt something was wrong.
