Chapter 55 Lively
Time shifts back, and on the other side, Fu Jiaming waited for her to leave the office. Taking advantage of the free time when Director Liang was off work, he quickly approved the leave slip and hurriedly limped to the nearby machinery factory.
He entered the machinery factory without any hindrance. Although he knew it was already past closing time, he went straight to the two-story building behind the chief engineer's office building and did not choose to go to the canteen or dormitory.
"Sir, could you please find Yan Bei in the research lab?"
"Oh, it's you again, here to catch Yan Gong for dinner, hahaha, kid, just you wait!"
The old man guarding him was used to him doing this every now and then.
Furthermore, this Yan Gong is good in every way, except that when he gets to work, he works like crazy. If no one is watching over him, he won't eat or sleep and will work until the middle of the night!
There's an old saying that food is as essential as iron; you'll get hungry if you skip a meal. How can someone so young do this all the time? Otherwise, their health will collapse.
Thinking this, the old man opened the steel door and walked in. He quickly reached room 202. "Yan Gong? Yan Gong? Someone is looking for me."
"Clap~"
Distracted from his thoughts, Yan Bei's pencil snapped in his hand. He hadn't noticed it while engrossed in the formula, but the sudden pain in his chest made him gasp.
Knowing it must be that guy Fu Jiaming, he put the draft document in his hand into the drawer, locked it, and slowly got up to walk to the door and open it.
"Yan Gong, are you alright?"
The old man swallowed the teasing remark that was on the tip of his tongue after seeing the man's expression. "Are you feeling unwell?"
"It's nothing, I'm just a little stuffy from being indoors for too long."
Really?
So much cold sweat, and her face, which was already whiter than a girl's, was now completely pale. She didn't look like she was alright at all.
Grandpa Yuan asked for confirmation again and again, and only when he came out of the building and saw Fu Jiaming waiting for him did he feel a little relieved.
The two brothers, one with a limp and a cast on his leg, and the other with thick bandages wrapped around his chest inside his clothes, didn't know who should support whom.
"What do you want to do again?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, look at what you're saying."
Fu Jiaming glanced at him and continued casually, "Well, all that good intentions from Su Ning was for nothing. You can go back to your room and continue being alone with your research lab!"
"What do you mean?"
"What do you mean? Su Ning is having a housewarming party tonight and specially invited us to the party. But since you're busy, I'll pass on your apologies to her."
Yan Bei abruptly stopped in her tracks, then looked up directly at him. "Su Ning, Wen Ju?"
"Yeah, how come..."
"Hey, Yan Qi, where are you going? The gate is this way!"
Fu Jiaming, who had just gotten his wish to see him change his expression again, immediately suppressed his smugness as soon as it began to surface.
No!
Why did they stride towards the staff dormitory after confirming the news?
"Hey Yan Qi, are you serious? You're really not going?"
"Wait!"
I was completely confused until I followed him to his dorm and then it all became clear.
Fu Jiaming deeply regretted not having a camera; otherwise, he could have laughed for a year or two if he had captured that rare scene!
"Yanbei, Yanbei, little Yanqi, tell me, your stubbornness is the only thing you have. What's the use of denying it?"
"Ha ha ha ha…"
"Shut up. If you want the news about your thermal underwear to spread throughout both factories by tomorrow, then keep talking."
"you are vicious!"
……
Because someone had gone back and dressed up carefully, the two patients had to speed things up. By the time they found the address she gave them, the agreed time had just arrived.
"Number 63, South Gate First Street, that's right..."
Before he could voice his question, Fu Jiaming saw the familiar black figure behind the half-open door. "Little Circle, do you still recognize me?"
"Woof~"
Little Circle sniffed, and upon smelling the familiar scent, it cried out in a childish voice, completely lacking the fierceness it had shown when it saw Luo Shuangshuang.
"good!"
Fu Jiaming stroked its chin and turned to his good buddy, "Let's go, Yan Qi, this is the place we've come to."
"Suning, are you there? We're coming!"
Just as they finished making the last soup and sat down to rest, laughing and joking with Luo Shuangshuang, they heard a shout coming from the yard. The two exchanged a glance and immediately got up and went out of the kitchen.
"The food is all ready, we're just waiting for you."
"You know, the two of us!"
Fu Jiaming shrugged at her and spread his hands helplessly, "I really can't walk fast, and I can't ride a bike, so I'm a little late."
"Comrade Su, I'm sorry." "It's not too late, I just finished too. Comrade Yan, you don't need to say that. Let's go inside and have a meal."
Once everyone had entered the kitchen and sat down at the dining table, Su Ning briefly introduced them to each other before lifting the empty plates that had been covering the dishes to keep them warm.
Just by smelling the aroma, you can tell that each dish must be delicious!
Fu Jiaming took a deep breath, and his already empty stomach growled even louder.
"I can't believe it. I thought you meant eating at home and getting some fancy dishes at a state-run restaurant. Did you really make all of this?"
"I guarantee that all of these were indeed made by Ning Baogai!"
Luo Shuangshuang's eyes were now just like his, like a wolf that hadn't eaten for days looking down at the dishes on the table, which seemed to glow green.
"So, can we eat first?"
"Agreed! My question was unnecessary!"
Seeing the two of them staring at him expectantly, Su Ning didn't say much. As the host, he picked up his chopsticks and casually picked up a dish.
The two cheered simultaneously, eager to start eating.
Back and forth they went, their hands moving so fast you could only see afterimages on the table. Towards the end, they even started competing with each other.
Su Ning and Yan Bei, who were sitting next to each other, moved back slightly in unison.
"Comrade Yan..."
"According to Jiaming, I thought we were friends?"
The food was delicious, but hearing her use distant and polite terms of address made Yanbei feel that even the best food was hard to swallow.
"of course."
After all, he had saved her life, so she felt she had to take some responsibility for his injuries, and even intervened to change his fate.
It's all fate, and there's nothing wrong with becoming friends, so Suning answered decisively.
"That's good. Su Ning, what were you trying to say to me just now?"
Upon hearing her unwavering affirmation, Yan Bei's cool and aloof expression instantly softened, like a snow lotus blooming atop an icy mountain.
The moment a flower blooms seems to amaze time, making it stand still.
Suning, who was also amazed, was briefly stunned, though it was a momentary moment of breathlessness.
"Ah, um, I wanted to ask how your injury is. I heard from Fu Jiaming that you went straight to work without taking sick leave?"
"Yes, there are still some things to finish up. I want to get them done first. Once the bone setting is done, there won't be any major issues."
She nodded knowingly, glancing strangely at his chest. Even now, she found it unbelievable how she had managed to injure him like that.
Compared to his ribs, I only had a big bump on my forehead. I guess I'm lucky to have a mild concussion?
"You still need to be careful and make sure you don't cause any further injury."
"Don't worry, I will."
The two over there were busy eating and enjoying their meal, and their conversation became increasingly harmonious, with no longer any awkwardness between them.
Overall, everyone was very happy after the meal.
As night deepened outside, people strolled along the cobblestone alleyways of the embankment, fanning themselves with palm-leaf fans and chatting idly, occasionally bursts of laughter echoing through the air.
The courtyard gate was wide open. Su Ning escorted the three of them to the gate, but she was still a little worried. "How about I take you all home?"
"No need. Although we're both sick, we're not made of clay and can't be broken at the slightest touch, are we? You can entrust Luo Shuangshuang's safety to us as well. We'll make sure she gets home safely!"
Fu Jiaming waved his hand to refuse her offer. If someone were to foolishly run into trouble, who knows who would be the unlucky one.
"Don't worry, Ning Baogai, I'll be home in a few minutes. Since you're free tomorrow, I'll come see you again."
"it is good."
Without saying much, Yan Bei simply gave her a deep look, smiled and nodded the moment she looked back, and then left with them.
……
"Little circle, you've circled enough, let's go!"
Only after everyone had walked far away and was out of sight did Su Ning call the little circle that was still spinning home.
She needed to go back to the room to see what Yingying had written, and write a letter to both her and Grandpa Fu while there was still time.
"Woof woof woof~"
"What's wrong, little circle?"
The hand gripping the door tightened, and she called out again into the dim light, "Come back, Little Circle!"
"Wang Wang Wang! Wang Wang!"
I'm so tired of being tormented by my relatives, sorry it's late. (;︵;`)
