The vehicle Dai Zhenhua arranged arrived quickly, entering the Dahua Production Team an hour later. It was a transport truck, large enough to accommodate all of Guo Xiangxiang’s luggage at once.
Old Mrs. Guo sat in the passenger seat, and since Dai Zhenhua was the one who coordinated the arrangement, he got in the car as well. The rest of the people had no place to sit unless they sat in the rear cargo space, but with so much luggage, it was rather dangerous to fit more people.
"Third Brother, we’ll go ahead first. You and Sister-in-law can take the bus; you know the place, right? It’s Professor Ren’s house," Dai Zhenhua said.
"Yeah, I know, on Recovery Street, right?" Dai Zhenyan replied.
"Yes, that’s right," Dai Zhenhua nodded. "Xiangxiang, I’ll take good care of grandma over here."
Guo Xiangxiang sincerely thanked him, "Thank you very much."
"Cuihua, Brother Zhang, let’s go to the city together and have lunch," Guo Xiangxiang warmly invited. "If you hadn’t arrived in time, I would have been even more wronged today."
Zhang Erqiang looked at Wu Cuihua, since she was the roommate.
"Sure, well then, Xiangxiang, I won’t be formal with you," Wu Cuihua readily agreed.
"Mr. Yin, thanks for the trouble today. When you have some free time, I’ll have my dad invite you to our home for a meal," Dai Zhenyan said with a grin at Yin Xincheng.
"I didn’t do much, don’t make the big leader trouble himself over this," Yin Xincheng quickly waved in refusal.
"Mr. Yin, we’ll be heading off now," Dai Zhenyan didn’t say much more since he planned to tell his dad about this anyway.
Dai Zhenyan led Baozi, walking half a step behind Yi Roujing, and talked and chatted with Zhang Erqiang and Wu Cuihua walking behind.
Lin Caigen felt a jolt in his heart as he watched the group’s backs, and even when Yin Xincheng called him to get on the motorcycle, he was still in a daze.
To be called a big leader by Yin Xincheng...
Lin Caigen asked somewhat nervously, "Captain Yin, whose children are those two?"
"The children of a big leader in the Dai family, who supervises our public security," Yin Xincheng didn’t intend to hide it.
Lin Caigen’s expression was a bit disoriented, as he couldn’t recall hearing about anyone by the surname Dai in the leadership of their Licheng District Public Security Bureau or the leadership team in Dongji City.
"From our East Province," Yin Xincheng clarified, "Alright, I’m heading back. Come back on your own, and remind your family and relatives not to break the law knowingly or underestimate anyone."
"The one with the highest status today wasn’t even the big leader’s child. Didn’t you see their respect and closeness to Yi Roujing? She’s likely from Jing City. You all dodged a bullet today, because if they wanted to pursue it, they wouldn’t need to lift a finger against you," Yin Xincheng left those words and rode away on his motorcycle.
Lin Caigen hadn’t snapped out of it yet. The words "East Province," "Dai," and "Public Security Bureau" echoed in his mind. The newly appointed Director of the East Province Public Security Department was previously from the traffic department; everyone in their public security system knew this, as he had also served as the Director of Dongji City’s Public Security Bureau before.
Vice Governor!
Lin Caigen’s legs went weak directly, almost collapsing to the ground. Luckily, Li Zhiping came over quickly to support him, "Little brother, are you okay?"
Under the sympathetic or gloating gazes of those around, Lin Caihua approached the two angrily.
"Did they all leave?" Lin Caihua said indignantly, "They got off easy."
"Big Sis, you absolutely can’t be like this, otherwise I and my brother-in-law won’t even know how we’ve been harmed by you," Lin Caigen suddenly shouted, his eyes filled with fear.
Lin Caihua was stunned by Lin Caigen’s shout, her eyes full of disbelief.
"Do you know who you offended?" Lin Caigen shook his head, his legs trembling as he walked a few steps, "That’s the child of our Vice Governor."
"Vi-vice, vice governor?" Li Zhiping stuttered in fright.
"How-how is that possible, aren’t Guo Xiangxiang’s parents doctors?" Lin Caihua asked with a pale face.
"It’s not her, it’s those friends who came to see her today," Lin Caigen gave Lin Caihua a look, "Big Sis, don’t judge people by appearances, and don’t bully people casually. Wenkang too; if you fancy someone, you have to ensure mutual affection and get consent. Otherwise, talk to me first and let me investigate. If anything like today happens again, I’ll be scared to death."
Yi Roujing and the others no longer cared about the matters at the Dahua Production Team; the issue had passed.
"Roujing," Guo Xiangxiang said joyfully, linking arms with Yi Roujing, "You arrived like a hero today, saving me from trouble."
"Don’t be cheeky," Yi Roujing said with amusement, "Even if I hadn’t come, you could’ve resolved it. I know your capability."
"But I’m delighted you came to see me." Guo Xiangxiang brushed her head against Yi Roujing’s shoulder, "Did your Mr. Xu come?"
"Yes, he did," Yi Roujing replied with a smile, "We’ll be staying a few more days, so I’ll ask him out for a meal together."
"Okay," Guo Xiangxiang nodded, "Once the new place is settled, I’ll invite you over for a housewarming, and I’ll showcase my cooking skills."
"I’ll be looking forward to that."
"Dai Zhenyan, thank you for today," Guo Xiangxiang turned to thank Dai Zhenyan behind her.
"You’re welcome, you’re welcome."
"Oh, Cuihua, let me introduce you," Guo Xiangxiang formally introduced Yi Roujing, lifting her right hand, "This is my best friend in Huaixi County and my good colleague at the staff hospital; her name is Yi Roujing."
"She’s now a student at Jing University, in the medical department, and will surely become an outstanding doctor in the future," Guo Xiangxiang said proudly.
Wu Cuihua and Zhang Erqiang showed identical expressions of surprise.
"Jing University, that’s a top student," Wu Cuihua exclaimed, "Truly talented and beautiful."
"I actually considered becoming a doctor myself, and my scores were about right, but ultimately I chose nursing. I’m not confident enough to perform surgery on living people," Wu Cuihua sighed, "But I also want to save lives like Xiangxiang."
"You’ll both definitely become excellent nurses," Yi Roujing assured her.
The conversation along the way involved asking about when school would start, the content of the courses, and also inquiries about Jing City, with a mention of wanting to visit and meet up with Yi Roujing if they had the chance. frёeωebɳovel.com
As for Dai Zhenhua, once they arrived at their destination, he first settled Old Mrs. Guo. Professor Ren’s house on Recovery Street was a small western-style building with one family renting it, who was a classmate of Dai Zhenhua.
"Zhenhua, why are you here?" Gu Jianing was thrilled to see Dai Zhenhua when she opened the door, as it was through him that she managed to rent such a good place.
"I have a classmate who wants to rent a house here too," Dai Zhenhua explained, "I’ll give Professor Ren a call. Can you help take care of Madam Guo?"
Gu Jianing hurriedly nodded, welcoming Old Mrs. Guo into the house and calling her family to help move the luggage from the transport truck.
