Director Feng cleared his throat. "Before, it was nothing more than paying lip service. It wouldn’t have been good to outright deny him face."
Luo Yuping rolled her eyes at her husband. "If Vice Factory Director Huo heard what you’ve said, he’d be sure to counter you in the future."
Director Feng couldn’t help laughing. "Speaking of which, with his temper, he might really turn on me."
With that, he stood up. "I’m going to bring back the charcoal. We’ll bank the furnace and get to bed early."
No sooner had he stepped out of the courtyard than he heard voices from next door. "Yi’er, make sure the door is locked. Get some rest early; I’ll bring breakfast over tomorrow morning."
Then he heard, "Alright, no need to come out. It’s cold outside. I’ll secure the front door and go out over the wall."
Hearing this, Director Feng thought to himself, As soon as I get to work tomorrow, I’ll make a call to push off the matter and avoid a misunderstanding with Vice Factory Director Huo.
The next day, as soon as Yun Yiyi stepped out of her space, she heard movements outside and quickly went to open the door.
Huo Jingrui raised the breakfast in his hand. "I brought you your favorite sesame seed cakes."
After the two of them affectionately finished their breakfast, just as they were preparing to pack up and head back to the Agricultural Reclamation Group, Guo Qiming unexpectedly arrived with his wife.
Guo Qiming originally had important matters today, but after his wife heard last night that there was hope for her illness to be cured, she couldn’t wait.
Left with no choice, and because it weighed on his mind as well, Guo Qiming asked for leave from work overnight. He even told his superiors that they had finally found a capable doctor that day, but the doctor would be leaving after today.
The factory leaders, naturally aware of his situation, wouldn’t dare refuse his leave.
Xiao Caihong’s hands shook as she took the prescription. "Thank you so much."
Yunyi patted her hand. "Your husband, Guo Qiming, is a friend of my fiancé, so you are naturally my friends too. Meeting is fate, and I’m happy I can help you. To fully treat the illness, it’s not just about adjusting the body with herbal medicine. You’ll also need acupuncture for a period, so please be mentally prepared."
Both of them, of course, had no objections. Taking the prescription, they hurriedly bid farewell.
After seeing them off, Huo Jingrui borrowed a car from the factory to take Yunyi back to the Agricultural Reclamation Group.
Once out of the county town, Huo Jingrui gave up the driver’s seat, allowing Yunyi to indulge in the thrill of driving. As they neared the Agricultural Reclamation Group, they switched places again.
Ye Wenhui received the news as soon as Yunyi returned. Forgetting to even put on her scarf, she ran over. "Yunyi, you’re back?"
