Chapter 245 A rising tide lifts all boats When the Wang family arrived, the crowd who were watching the fun automatically made way for each other. At this time, no one was stupid enough to stand in front and stop them. There were even many people watching the fun with a gloating attitude. Several members of the Wang family arrived at the scene. Wang's father did not take any action. Instead, the three brothers of the Wang family rushed forward, pulled Wang Xiaoying out first, and then pushed Aunt Xue. After all, Aunt Xue was not young anymore and she was a woman, so she did not use any brutal force. But Uncle Xue and the eldest son of the Xue family fought each other. Suddenly, several people started fighting. Ning Weidong and Wang Zipeng retreated to the side early. It is better to stay away from such things to avoid getting covered in blood. Wang Zipeng smiled in a somewhat disingenuous way. It's no wonder. He usually had a bad relationship with Uncle Xue's family. This time when Xue Laoer was gone, he didn't want to find fault. After all, someone had died. But such an incident didn't stop him from laughing. Ning Weidong felt that it was not a good idea to step forward at this time as it would easily get him into trouble, so he simply left the crowd. Although Wang Zipeng wanted to take another look, he saw Ning Weidong was about to leave, so he hurried to follow him: "Leader..."

Ning Weidong interrupted, "We are all human beings. What's the point of being a leader? Just call me by my name at home." Wang Zipeng laughed dryly, but he couldn't say the word "Weidong", so he simply omitted the name and whispered, "Director Li asked me to keep an eye on him. Tell him when you come back. It seems he wants to talk to you about something." "Li Peihang?" Ning Weidong was slightly surprised: "What's going on?" Wang Zipeng said hurriedly: "No, how about you decide when is the right time for me to tell them?" Ning Weidong said: "That doesn't matter. Since Lao Li has told you, just reply to him and he can contact me later." Wang Zipeng nodded quickly: "Okay, I won't disturb you to rest." Ning Weidong responded and turned to look at the backyard again. The Wang father and son had already been pulled away. Ning Weidong turned around and went back to the cross-yard, thinking that he really didn't want to live in this slum anymore as there were too many messy and dirty things going on. Besides, he will be getting married to Zhao Ruyu on May Day next year, and the wedding house should be prepared. It definitely won’t work if it is kept here. If he had been at the Red Star Factory, it would have been no problem for Ning Weidong to build his new house here and marry Zhao Ruyu, but the situation is different now. Since he has the ability, there is no need to force himself to do so. When I got home, about half an hour later, the hustle and bustle in the backyard had died down, people had gone home one after another, and the yard had returned to quiet. But at this time, Uncle Lu came over and said, "Weidong~ I saw the light was still on in your room just now, so I came over. I hope I didn't disturb your rest~" Because they were willing to burn coal in the stove, Ning Weidong's room was very warm. He took off his coat and only wore a sweater and trousers. It’s not the coldest yet, but we’re busy putting on cotton jackets and trousers. By then, we’ll be at a loss. Ning Weidong said with a smile: "Look at what you said, you can call it a disturbance when you come to my place, please take a seat, I will pour you some water." Uncle Lu waved his hand and said, "No, no, please sit down. Just two words and I'll leave after I'm done." Ning Weidong did not insist and sat down: "You say~" Uncle Lu said, "You also saw what happened in the backyard today." Ning Weidong nodded and sighed: "I remember Dongfang is only 25, what a pity."

Uncle Lu sighed, "Who says it's not true? I watched them grow up since they were little, and now they're gone, leaving behind Old Xue and his wife, and having to deal with the Wang family as their in-laws..." Ning Weidong knew that if Xue Dongfang had simply died accidentally, there wouldn't have been such a big fight. There must be some other story behind it. Sure enough, after listening to Uncle Lu, I finally understood the whole story. It turned out that Xue Dongfang left behind a job as a state-owned worker after his death. This job was obtained by the Xue family with great effort the year before last. Now that the person is gone, the question becomes who will take over this job. Logically, Wang Xiaoying is Xue Dongfang's wife and is qualified to take over. But the Xue family was not happy about this. Wang Xiaoying was only 23, in the prime of her life. They didn't have any children yet, so it was impossible for her to remain a widow. If Wang Xiaoying really gets the job and remarries someone else in the future, the Xue family will suffer a great loss. So the Xue family wanted Xue Dongfang’s younger sister to take over. Both sides insisted on their own opinions and neither was willing to give in, which eventually led to the fight tonight. After Uncle Lu finished speaking, he sighed and said, "Weidong, you are the most promising person in our hospital, please give me some advice." Ning Weidong glanced at Uncle Lu and thought that this guy was really nosy. But on second thought, if there wasn't such a kind-hearted person in the hospital, many things would be difficult to handle. Both the original owner and Ning Weidong had a good impression of Uncle Lu. Uncle Lu is a seventh-level worker and has already retired. His family is well off and he doesn't have to worry too much about his children, so he speaks and does things in the hospital without any selfish motives. Ning Weidong thought for a while and said, "This matter is simple. To put it bluntly, it's all about money. The Xue family is afraid that Wang Xiaoying will remarry and take the job away. The Wang family thinks that the job should have belonged to Wang Xiaoying. So both sides should take a step back. If Wang Xiaoying wants to take over, she should give some money to compensate the Xue family. The same goes for the Xue family. If they want to keep the job, they should compensate Wang Xiaoying. If both sides disagree, just report it to the police and let them mess around instead of making trouble in our yard." Uncle Lu thought silently. He would definitely not be happy if he was notified by the police. Subconsciously, he still had the inertia of his past life in the slum. He felt that family disgrace should not be made public, and if it could be resolved in the courtyard, it would be best to resolve it there. However, he very much agreed with the method Ning Weidong mentioned earlier. After all, it is difficult for an honest judge to judge family affairs. There's no way to tell right from wrong in this kind of thing, and in the end it's just a matter of finding a result that both parties can barely accept. Uncle Lu thanked him and didn’t stay long. When I got home, Aunt Lu was pinching her forehead with her fingers in the house. He pinched out a dark red diamond-shaped mark, and when he heard the sound of the door, he immediately looked over: "Old man, you're back~ What did Ning Weidong say?" Uncle Lu gave a brief account of it. Aunt Lu pursed her lips and said, "He is good at smoothing things over." Uncle Lu asked, "What else can we do? Do you have a better idea?" Aunt Lu said as a matter of course: "I am a woman, what can I do? But Ning Weidong must have a way. That boy... is as smart as a monkey when he gets a brush stuck on him, but I just don't want to take care of it." Uncle Lu said, "You also said that he is smarter than a monkey, why should he care about these irrelevant things?"

Aunt Lu pursed her lips and said, "That's true~" At this moment, a pretty figure wearing clothes came out from the inner room: "Aunt, uncle, what happened?" The woman's voice was weak, her face was abnormally red, her lips were dry, and she had no expression in her eyes. It was obvious that she was ill. Aunt Lu hurried over and said, "Xiaoxue, why are you still up?" She reached out to touch the woman's forehead and said, "It's still hot, go back and lie down." The woman hummed and looked at Uncle Lu: "Uncle, I really... I came here to see you, but I asked you and Aunt to take care of me." Uncle Lu said, "What are you talking about, kid? Now that we are here, we are home." Aunt Lu sent the woman back to the inner room and came out to sigh. Uncle Lu said, "If the fever doesn't go away by tomorrow morning, go to the health center to see a doctor. Don't let the fever cause pneumonia." Aunt Lu nodded and said, "It's a difficult situation for this child. He finally got a role in a movie and was about to become a movie star, but now something like this happens." Uncle Lu said: "Who said it wasn't~" Aunt Lu made a "tsk" sound and lowered her voice slightly: "Do you think Ning Weidong can help with this?" Uncle Lu said, "Who knows? Let's wait until Xiaoxue gets better. You can't go to someone for help when you're sick. That would be meaningless." …… At this time, less than twenty meters away from Uncle Lu's house, Bai Fengyu had already secretly crawled into Ning Weidong's bed. Although Ning Weidong had just paid his dues to Zhao Ruyu in the afternoon, his physical condition had already recovered by the evening... The next morning, Bai Fengyu overslept again. When I opened my eyes, it was already daybreak and I could hear people outside greeting each other early in the morning. Ning Weidong was still sleeping next to her, their skins pressed against each other, and Ning Weidong instinctively held the ball with one hand. Bai Fengyu was nervous for a moment. Even though this situation had happened before, she always waited until people went to work before sneaking back. However, she was far from familiar with the process and could not help but shrink into the quilt. After moving a little, Ning Weidong woke up and saw Bai Fengyu face to face. Although she is a beauty, she can't help but see two blurry spots from the corners of her eyes when she wakes up in the morning. "Are you awake~" Bai Fengyu met his gaze and asked subconsciously. Ning Weidong frowned: "You farted in the bed!" It turned out that Bai Fengyu moved just now and pulled the quilt. It is normal to have a smell in the bed after a night's sleep. Everyone poops and farts. Bai Fengyu blushed: "I didn't, stop talking nonsense." Ning Weidong chuckled, "Really? I don't believe it. Come over here and let me check." Bai Fengyu rolled her eyes, her cheeks turned even redder, and she whispered, "It's been morning, don't act like a demon." Ning Weidong was just teasing her and didn't really mean anything. He just played with the ball and got up. But at this moment, there was a knock on the door: "Weidong~Is Weidong home?"

Ning Weidong frowned and recognized it was Uncle Lu. He wondered why this old man would never stop. Bai Fengyu was startled and quickly shrank into the quilt, whispering, "What should I do?" Ning Weidong pinched it a little, got up and went to the ground, and responded: "What are you afraid of? Just lie down and relax~" He put on his clothes slowly and went to the outer room to open the door. Ning Weidong was not worried that Uncle Lu would break in. Nowadays, no one in the yard would dare to break into his house unless they were stupid enough. "Uncle Lu, is there anything I can help you with?" Ning Weidong asked while buttoning his clothes. Uncle Lu said, "Your Aunt Lu's niece came to visit us the day before yesterday and wanted to stay for two days, but she got sick and had a high fever yesterday. Paracetamol didn't work. I see your car is on the road, can you help take her to the hospital?" Ning Weidong suddenly realized that he had just returned last night and didn't know that Aunt Lu's niece was here. There's no need to refuse this matter. He has to go to work anyway, it's just a detour. "You go back and get ready first, I'll be right back after I get dressed." Ning Weidong agreed and quickened the pace of buttoning his clothes. Uncle Lu thanked him and left in a hurry. Ning Weidong thought to himself, Uncle Lu is quite old but he still has sharp eyes. He came back yesterday and parked his car on the side of the main road. Uncle Lu must have seen him at the entrance of the alley. He turned back to the inner room and said to Bai Fengyu, "Sister Bai, I'm leaving first. I'll lie down for a while." Bai Fengyu wrapped herself in the quilt and said "hmm". When Ning Weidong arrived at Uncle Lu's house in the front yard, he saw a very beautiful woman wrapped up like a dumpling as soon as he entered the door. He was wearing a military coat and a scarf on his head, leaving only his face exposed. Ning Weidong couldn't help but exclaimed "Huh?", as the woman looked somewhat familiar to him. "Xiaoxue, this is Ning Weidong from our hospital." Aunt Lu introduced: "Weidong is my niece, Gong Xiaoxue. Thank you for your hard work." Ning Weidong suddenly realized, no wonder she looked familiar, after all the fuss it turned out to be her! A very famous film actress in the 1980s, her defining feature was her beauty. But Ning Weidong didn't expect that Gong Xiaoxue could be related to Uncle Lu's family. "Comrade Ning Weidong, thank you~" Gong Xiaoxue looked at Ning Weidong weakly. She didn't expect that when her uncle went to call for help, he would call such an energetic young man. Ning Weidong said "You're welcome" but didn't just stare at him. No matter how pretty Gong Xiaoxue is, she is actually about the same as Bai Fengyu and Shi Xiaonan. It's just that she is a movie actress and is more famous. Ning Weidong said to Uncle Lu: "My car is parked on the road, wait for me to drive in." After Ning Weidong left, Gong Xiaoxue asked in surprise: "Uncle, is his car a car?" She originally thought that Uncle Lu went to borrow a vehicle, perhaps a cart or something like that, but she didn't expect it was a car.

Aunt Ning continued, "Don't underestimate this little Ning. He is a very capable man with connections everywhere. Your uncle just wanted to ask him for help with your matter." Gong Xiaoxue was shocked. Thinking back to Ning Weidong's appearance just now, he should be younger than her, so how could he be so capable? Normally, if you live in a slum, you probably can't rely on your family. But as soon as she started thinking, she felt her head swelling, as if needles were pricking her head. I simply stopped thinking about it and felt a little dark in front of my eyes. After a while, Ning Weidong drove the car into the alley and came in from outside, only to find that Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu were supporting Gong Xiaoxue, and Aunt Lu kept pinching her Ren Zhong. Ning Weidong was startled and said quickly: "Go to the hospital quickly!" He went over, picked the person up and walked out. A hundred pounds or so was nothing to Ning Weidong. Uncle Lu and his wife followed behind him. It was the first time for both of them to ride in a car. They were very cautious when getting in the car, for fear of breaking something. Ning Weidong ignored the two of them and drove straight to the hospital emergency room. It wasn't a serious matter. He woke up quickly and was admitted to the hospital. Ning Weidong is no longer needed at this point. Although he thinks Gong Xiaoxue is pretty, he will not get close to her. He has just returned from Sulian and has a lot of things to do, so he has no time to waste. After leaving the hospital, Ning Weidong drove to the new office building. I drove through the gate next to me into the yard of the back building and parked the car next to Fatty Wang's Crown. Fatty Wang is really not afraid of the cold. Maybe he got used to living in the Greater Khingan Range during those years in the countryside. The minus ten degrees Celsius weather in Beijing is nothing to him. It's November in a few days, and this guy is actually rolling up his sleeves and using a rag to wipe his beloved car. Seeing Ning Weidong, Wang Kaixuan laughed and said, "Hey, manager, you're here. How's it going? Do you think I've polished this car to make it shiny?" Ning Weidong took a look and was impressed. It was really bright. “When you’re done wiping it, wipe mine too.” Fatty Wang was stunned. Ning Weidong had already walked into the building after he finished speaking. "Hey~" Wang Kaixuan blinked his eyes, looked at Ning Weidong's car covered with dust and mud, and slapped his mouth with his hand: "My broken mouth~" Ning Weidong walked into the building through the door. After renovation, the floor was all newly terrazzo, the front door and the back door faced each other, and there was a hall inside. As soon as I entered the door, I saw Jiang Biyun and Yu Hongmei coming out of the office. She was not surprised to see Ning Weidong and the others. She greeted them and went to the bathroom. Ning Wei came early this morning, and they could guess that Ning Weidong had also returned. Ning Weidong walked up the stairs. The company still had the same staff as before, but with them moving here, the building seemed empty. While going upstairs, Ning Weidong thought that he had to recruit someone. Come to the fourth floor. The heating temperature in the building is quite high and you can feel the warm breeze in the corridor. Ning Weidong unbuttoned his coat and came to his office, which was the room where the safe was originally stored.

Together with the room next door, one was converted into his office, and the other was used as a rest room with a door opened in the wall. In addition, there is a conference room on the fourth floor. Although the other rooms have been cleaned up, there is no specific arrangement and they are temporarily empty. Ning Weidong came to the office. The door was open, Ning Wei was cleaning the windowsill inside, and when he heard footsteps he turned around and said, "Third brother, you're here~" Ning Weidong walked in and looked at the layout of the room. It was almost the same as his previous office in the courtyard. The things that were originally there were moved here almost intact, even the position of the flower pots on the windowsill was almost the same. This is power. Ning Weidong put the briefcase in his hand on the desk and said with a smile: "Not bad~" Ning Wei chuckled and said, "It's better to live in the building. It's much warmer than before." Ning Weidong looked around and found that the two large safes had become storage boxes. Then go to the lounge next door. There is a big bed in the room, with thick blackout curtains on the windows, and there is also a TV, radio, and electric fan. Inside the lounge, there is a small door leading to a separate bathroom. Ning Weidong took a look around and was very satisfied with the situation here. Sitting behind the desk, Ning Weidong said, "Xiaowei, go and call Hu Bayi, Wang Kaixuan, Lao Lu, and Sister Liu from the finance department over... and ask Jiang Biyun and Duan Ming to come as well." Ning Wei responded and walked out immediately. Ning Weidong thought to himself that it was time to have a secretary by his side, as he had not found a suitable candidate. First of all, rule out female secretaries. Although beautiful women are pleasing to the eye, they can also easily bring a lot of trouble. Besides, one should still avoid suspicion when living in a melon field or a plum garden. At least don't go too far on the surface. As for men, Ning Weidong really can’t find such a person around him. Regardless of whether it was the two who followed Ning Wei at the beginning, or the few people recruited later, they were all a little lacking. Duan Ming is barely okay, he is thoughtful and smart, but he is the classmate of the original owner, so this identity is rather troublesome. It's okay for him to be employed in the unit, but not as a secretary. Ning Weidong thought about it and couldn't find a suitable one, so he had to let it go for the time being. After a while, the few people Ning Weidong had just ordered arrived. Because there were not many people, Ning Weidong did not go to the conference room, but stayed in his office. Ning Weidong leaned back in the chair behind his desk and glanced at the few people with an expressionless face. Wang Kaixuan, who was originally smiling, subconsciously stopped smiling when he saw the gaze passing by. Others also felt a chill in their hearts. Ning Weidong said slowly: "I have been away on business these days, everyone has done a good job..." He first expressed affirmation, which made several people breathe a sigh of relief, and then Ning Weidong began to put forward the next work requirements.

Since we have moved to a new office building, there must be a new look, especially as the New Year is approaching. 1980 is crucial in Ning Weidong's plan. The development of Dongyi Company must keep pace with him. "Sister Liu~" Ning Weidong looked at the plump woman in her thirties in front of him and said, "The finance department of our unit must be established as soon as possible. You are an expert in this field and your professional level is top-notch. I hope you can guide Comrade Jiang Biyun and Comrade Yu Hongmei." Sister Liu quickly stated: "Manager, please rest assured, I promise to complete the task." Ning Weidong nodded and looked at Jiang Biyun again: "Comrade Jiang Biyun, you have attended high school and your education is relatively high in our company. You have to step up at the critical moment and cooperate with Sister Liu." Jiang Biyun was excited. Although Ning Weidong had mentioned to her before that he wanted her to do finance, she quickly expressed her firm stance. After saying this, Ning Weidong looked at Duan Ming again: "Old Duan, you have to take on more responsibilities. You have to take care of the office affairs and increase the number of staff according to the company's business. Please write some materials and give them to me as soon as possible..." Duan Ming was overjoyed. Ning Wei had been doing the office work all along, and he always seemed a little redundant. Now that Ning Weidong has given him this, it can be regarded as a reassurance to him. The next one was Lu Zhou, who continued to do his old job and set up the company's security department. In a nutshell, it means expansion and recruiting. In the end, everyone else left, leaving only Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan. Ning Weidong came out from behind the desk, sat on the sofa with the two of them, and said to Wang Kaixuan, "Fatty, let's first talk about how the winery has progressed over the past half month." Speaking of this, Wang Kaixuan's face lit up: "Manager, let me tell you this, everything is going smoothly at the winery. The filtration equipment has been installed, and it was just debugged for the second time yesterday. It can now start trial production." Ning Weidong nodded with satisfaction. He had long expected that if nothing unexpected happened, the winery's progress should be very fast. After all, there was nothing too difficult. However, the fact that trial production could start so quickly was beyond his expectations. He also felt more confident in Wang Kaixuan's abilities. "That's great!" Ning Weidong slapped the fat man's thigh, and the fat man cried out "ouch" in pain. Ning Weidong laughed: "Don't relax from now on, hurry up and start trial production. Any interim results are false. I only want the final result, understand!" Wang Kaixuan patted his chest, full of confidence. Don't be fooled by his relaxed appearance. In fact, he was working non-stop for the past 20 days. He stayed in the factory for the crucial few days, eating and sleeping, and keeping an eye on the progress of various projects. Otherwise it wouldn't be so smooth. Wang Kaixuan felt a surge of energy in his heart. Don't be fooled by his usual cheerful appearance, he is not really heartless. When he first went to the countryside, he stayed in Ganggangyingzi for a year and then Hu Bayi joined the army, leaving him to suffer for several years. This time Ning Weidong went to Su Lian and took Hu Bayi away again, leaving him behind. Wang Kaixuan didn't say anything, but he was secretly trying to figure out why he always chose Hu Bayi. Ning Weidong is willing to take Hu Bayi to Sulian, which is a very clear signal. But it was clearly Wang Kaixuan who came first, why is it always Hu Bayi? This is already the second time.

However, Wang Kaixuan knew that Hu Bayi was his brother and a friend since childhood. He could not be jealous of Hu Bayi, and he could not trip Hu Bayi up because of this. He, Wang Kaixuan, will only do better and prove to Ning Weidong that he is no worse than anyone else. So, this time Wang Kaixuan worked extra hard just to fight for this honor. Ning Weidong looked at Hu Bayi and said, "Old Hu, this time at Sulian, I asked you and Wang Ye to buy various brands of vodka. Then, refer to our domestic liquor bottles and design a bottle that suits us. Contact the glass factory and customize it." Hu Bayi responded but didn't say much. During this trip to Sulian, he was impressed by Ning Weidong. Although Hu Bayi respected Ning Weidong on the surface before, he might not be convinced in his heart. Hu Bayi is a proud man at heart, and he believes that he is better than Ning Weidong in terms of both background and ability, and he has even fought on the battlefield for his country. But this time, he truly witnessed Ning Weidong's power. When he left, he was completely in the dark about that place and knew nothing except a few names of people. He was able to improvise everything he did and managed to make Ning Weidong famous. This is just what he knows on the surface. Ning Weidong said, "You are still responsible for the winery. Give me the results as soon as possible." Then he looked at Hu Bayi and said, "Old Hu, tell Fatty about the situation at Sulian later. According to our actual situation, the soda factory can slow down a bit, but the winery must be fast! I want to see the first batch of wine loaded on the train before the end of the year." Wang Kaixuan and Hu Bayi looked at each other and both felt the pressure. If it’s before the end of the year, it will only be two months at most. After coming out of Ning Weidong’s office, Hu and Wang went to their own offices on the third floor. The new office building has plenty of space, and the two deputy managers each have their own offices, but they still like to stay together. Hu Bayi had just returned and went to Wang Kaixuan's room without cleaning up the office. "Old Hu, you value women over friends. What happened between you two yesterday, Comrade Wang?" Wang Kaixuan squinted his eyes. "I asked you but you didn't tell me." Hu Bayi blushed for a rare moment: "What nonsense are you talking about? Comrade Wang Ye and I are just ordinary comrades." Wang Kaixuan curled his lips: "You are kidding me~ The way you look at people is so weird." Hu Bayi choked and quickly changed the subject: "Don't talk about those unnecessary things. What's the situation at the winery? Don't talk nonsense. This is a matter of great importance!" Wang Kaixuan said, "When have we ever been unreliable? Spitting is a nail. But, what do you think? From what the manager said, do we really want to sell the wine to Sulian?" Hu Bayi said, "What do you think? Who in China have you seen drinking vodka?" "That's true~" Wang Kaixuan nodded: "But can they have our wine?" Hu Bayi said: "This is not our concern, otherwise what do you think the manager is doing this time~" Wang Kaixuan's eyes lit up: "From what I heard, everything has been settled?" Hu Bayi said: "Then why are we begging for progress~" Wang Kaixuan was a little excited: "Fuck, selling our wine to the old mule and making rubles, perfect!"

…… At the other end, the office on the fourth floor. Ning Weidong was talking to Li Yuanchao on the phone: "Brother Yuanchao, are you free? Let's meet~" Li Yuanchao's hearty laughter came from the other end of the phone: "It's hard to say for others, but you, Ning Weidong, always have time. Why don't you come to my horse ranch?" Ning Weidong said: "Okay, I'll go there at noon." Li Yuanchao said: "That's perfect. I just happened to have a batch of lambs from Inner Mongolia. Let's kill one today~" After hanging up the phone, Ning Weidong smiled. He could clearly feel that there was a subtle change in Li Yuanchao's attitude towards him. Although Li Yuanchao had been very polite to Ning Weidong for the sake of the Zhao family, that politeness implied a condescending attitude. This time... there's no such condescending attitude. Apparently, Li Yuanchao learned about some of the results of Ning Weidong's trip to the Soviet Union through certain channels. When the water level rises, the boat naturally becomes taller, making people look at it from a higher perspective. Looking at the time, Ning Weidong saw that there were still two hours until noon, so he simply got up and went downstairs. He was away for more than twenty days and came back with a lot of things to do. The unit has made arrangements, and there are other aspects as well. For example, Zhao Yushui and Yu Yan must bring gifts when they go out, and Chen Baoqing is coming to Beijing for a seminar, so we must meet him. Then, Chu Zhongxin and Zhang Dajun have to meet each other. No matter how good the relationship is, it cannot be maintained for a long time without contact. Shi Xiaonan and An Ning also brought gifts. Ning Weidong decided to take advantage of this time to visit Shi Xiaonan first, and then go to see Li Yuanchao at noon. Coming out of the new office building, Ning Weidong drove to the yard where Shi Xiaonan lived and stopped the car far away. He then walked along the sidewalk carrying the bag. Just after ten o'clock, Ning Weidong arrived outside the courtyard gate and pressed the doorbell on the door frame. In winter, when the windows and doors are closed, sometimes you can't hear anything when you knock on the door. Of course, it is not needed in the slums, as the doors of these private courtyards usually have electric bells on them. Hearing the bell ringing in the yard, Shi Xiaonan asked, "Who?" "It's me~" Ning Weidong responded. Hurry footsteps were immediately heard in the yard. The bolt of the door inside was opened with a bang, and the black door opened with a creak, revealing Shi Xiaonan with tears in her eyes. "You're finally back! I was so worried!" Shi Xiaonan controlled her emotions, pulled Ning Weidong in, slammed the door shut with a bang, hugged him, and started crying. "You're back~ Are you back~" Ning Weidong dropped the bag on the ground and hugged Shi Xiaonan's trembling shoulders with both hands. Shi Xiaonan cried, "I didn't hear from you since you left. There was no news for a week, no news for ten days, no news for fifteen days...you..."

It’s not Shi Xiaonan’s fault, she is different from Bai Fengyu. Bai Fengyu at least still has a class to attend, so she has a place to stay. Even if Ning Weidong doesn't want her anymore, she will still be a staff member of the Guo family. Shi Xiaonan has nothing except this yard. She only has Ning Weidong. If there is a courtyard like this in the capital city thirty or forty years later, I will have nothing to fear. But now, houses are worthless. But Shi Xiaonan's behavior is also exaggerating. Don't forget what she does. There is a saying that life is like a play. Ning Weidong was about to say something to comfort her when suddenly a "bang" sound came from the house. Looking in the direction of the noise, I saw a black shadow flash by. ---- Thanks to woofer for the reward! He is a true hero who keeps his word. (End of this chapter)
