When I woke up, I was entangled by a rough guy with eight-pack abs

"Brother Qin?"

As soon as Gu Jin saw Qin Zhao, he happily pounced on him and hung on him like a sloth.

Qin Zhao frowned and pushed him down with disdain: "Brother Qin, brother-in-law? How come you have a brother-in-law with another surname?"

"That's not necessarily true. After all, there are so many beautiful and outstanding female comrades chasing after my sister Yingzi. Take my sister's pharmaceutical factory for example. When Sister Yingzi came, almost all the guys in the factory gathered around her. That scene, that guy..."

Gu Jin felt his scalp tingling as he spoke. When he looked up, he met Qin Zhao's cold and sharp eyes. He immediately stopped talking: "Well... in my eyes, those people are just toads wanting to eat swan meat. The only person who can match my sister Yingzi is Brother Zhao. You are the only brother-in-law in my heart!"

Qin Zhao then patted his shoulder and said, "Where's your sister Yingzi?"

"She's mixing the herbs in the warehouse. Because this recipe is her exclusive secret, no one is allowed to enter when she's mixing the herbs, but you can be an exception."

"How long has she been in there?"

"It's almost two hours."

Qin Zhao was worried that Ning Ying might have an accident, so he decided to go to the warehouse to check.

Gu Jin led the way for him, and when they reached the corner of the warehouse, they saw a woman with her butt sticking out and her neck craning to look inside.

Gu Jin recognized the fat woman as his eldest cousin at a glance, and quickly pulled her over awkwardly: "Cousin, Sister Yingzi said that no one is allowed to watch when she is mixing the formula, what were you doing just now?"

The fat woman covered Gu Jin's mouth and dragged him to the side with a guilty look on her face. Qin Zhao believed that he could handle the matter so he pushed the door and walked in.

I saw that the shelves in the warehouse were piled high with medicinal materials, all packed in sacks, with more than a dozen carts placed in the middle.

Ning Ying was seen carrying two sacks on her shoulders and two sacks under her arms and she threw them onto the cart so easily.

She was so absorbed in her work that she didn't notice there was an extra person in the warehouse. When she was about to reach for the sack on the shelf, she discovered that the bag of herbs was too high and she couldn't reach it, so she had to step on a stool.

When she was about to give up and pull the bench, suddenly a pair of strong and hot hands fell on her waist, pinching her slender waist and lifting her up effortlessly.

Ning Ying guessed his identity without looking back and took the bag of medicinal herbs.

After Qin Zhao landed her steadily on the ground, he took the sack from her hand and asked, "Which car should I put it on?"

Ning Ying pointed subconsciously: "Car number two."

Qin Zhao immediately threw the sack over. He rolled up his sleeves, revealing his sturdy forearms. "What should we do next? You decide."

"No, I can do it myself, it will be done quickly."

Qin Zhao took a few steps over with his long legs and pressed her down on the bench. "Comrade Ning, I'm going to take up some of your time, so I'll help you with some physical work as compensation. Please just give me your orders."

Ning Ying knew that he was a man of his word, so she handed him a piece of paper and said, "Then put them in the order on this paper. The ones in the front are what I have already arranged, and the ones at the back are the only ones left."

Qin Zhao smiled and said, "Okay, wait for me for a while."

Just as he was about to walk towards the shelf, he suddenly thought of something, turned around and faced Ning Ying, and took out a handful of White Rabbit candies from his pocket: "I heard that girls like to eat candies, let me give you some to try."

"Which girl said that?"

"My grandma."

"..."

Ning Ying's ears suddenly turned red. She asked that question as if she was jealous. In order to hide her embarrassment, she peeled a piece of candy and put it in her mouth. The sweet taste instantly spread in her mouth.

Qin Zhao was busy going back and forth between the shelves and several carts. Ning Ying glanced at him.

During this period, his skin color seemed to have become a shade darker, and he had lost some weight, making his bones look better, and his handsome features looked more three-dimensional. When he swung the sack hard, his forearms were tense, and the blood vessels in his hands were clearly visible.

After filling the cart, sweat dripped from Qin Zhao's hair, winding along his brow, intersecting at his clear jaw, and flowing over his protruding Adam's apple. It seemed that his whole body was exuding the scent of masculine hormones.

Ning Ying felt her heartbeat quicken, and then handed over a towel: "Thank you, wipe it off."

Qin Zhao wiped his sweat and said, "Comrade Ning, your time from now on belongs to me. Please accept my arrangement."

"Comrade Ning, you and Comrade Gu donated medicines to the disaster area for free and were awarded the Philanthropy Medal by the army. To express my gratitude, I will personally put big red flowers on you two on behalf of the army and walk around Rose City a few times."

Even if Qin Zhao didn't help her with the work, he would still be commended. He was just looking for an excuse to help her with the work.

"Qin Zhao, I'm not the weak woman you think I am. This is actually nothing."

"I never thought you were a weak woman." He paused and said, "But I just want you to eat a piece of candy in peace."

He didn't know what was wrong with him. Whenever he saw something delicious, he wanted Ning Ying to eat it. When he saw a woman wearing fashionable clothes while passing by, he subconsciously wanted to buy them for her. He imagined how she would look in them. He even wanted to tell her subconsciously about any new and interesting things he encountered.

Facing Ning Ying, he seemed to have endless things to say, but he could only swallow them down and carefully maintain the boundary between them, fearing that crossing the line would cause her disgust.

Ning Ying was also confused, but she finally said, "The White Rabbit is very sweet, thank you."

Qin Zhao smiled immediately: "Then I'll bring it to you next time."

When Ning Ying wanted to say something, Qin Zhao pulled her sleeve and left: "Let's go, I guess your county leaders have arrived by now."

Ning Ying immediately asked excitedly: "Did this matter alarm the county?"

"Well, the higher-ups have decided to set an example and will definitely notify the local government."

This is really great. If it becomes a model in the future, it means that a green channel has been opened. Will the snake venom ointment have to worry about sales in the future? Moreover, this time I became familiar with the county leaders and established a good relationship with them, which would make it easier to review the qualifications for opening a pharmaceutical factory in the future.

Ning Ying excitedly grabbed Qin Zhao's arm: "Captain Qin, you are my lucky star!"

Qin Zhao pressed the corner of his lips and said, "Call Shang Gu Jin later to accept the medal together."

"Don't worry, this kid is a dog. Once he smells something sweet, he'll jump faster than a monkey."

At this time, Gu Jin was scolding his cousin in a low voice in the office: "Cousin, are you crazy? Didn't we agree that Sister Yingzi would provide the formula, I would get the hard work fee, and you would get the processing fee? Why are you still thinking about her prescription?"

Yinhua shook the fat on her face: "Jinzi, let me ask you, don't you have any thoughts about Ning Ying?"

"What do you think?"

"Don't you want to marry her?"

Gu Jin felt a chill when he thought of Ning Ying carrying the bag. With such strength, she must be good at fighting. The wife he wanted to marry was a beautiful girl from a small family, gentle and virtuous.

"You must be joking. I don't have any feelings for Sister Yingzi at all!"

"That's it. I've analyzed it for you. If you marry her, the formula will belong to our Gu family. Our Gu family will be prosperous in the future. But you don't have this idea. What if the golden hen goes to lay golden eggs in another family one day, both of us will be finished. So we might as well get the secret recipe in our hands as soon as possible..."

boom!

Gu Jin suddenly smashed the cup to the ground: "Cousin, I'm warning you for the last time, don't try to steal the secret recipe again, otherwise I will immediately find another pharmaceutical factory to process it for you, and you won't be able to earn a penny from the processing fee!"

Gu Jin was always laughing and seldom lost his temper. Yinhua stared at his leaving figure for a long time before she reacted. Her chest was heaving with anger: "Silly boy, I'm afraid you won't even know that someone sold you out one day."

Since she couldn't reach an agreement with Gu Jin, it seemed that she would have to handle this matter on her own.

After the county leader finished his long and polite speech, Qin Zhao personally pinned the medals on Ning Ying and Gu Jin's chests, and the county leader pinned big red flowers on the two of them.

After the reporter took a few photos of the crowd, he began the street propaganda parade.

Ning Ying whispered to Qin Zhao, "Can you please go around my sister's clothing store a few more times?"

Qin Zhao understood what she meant: "Okay, I'll take care of it."

Before getting on the car, Qin Zhao gave the reporter who was taking pictures an address, and asked him to send him a copy of the photo to this address after it was developed.

"Young man, do you like that little girl?"

Qin Zhao smiled and didn't reply, but handed him a pack of cigarettes: "Brother, thank you for your help."

"It's not a big deal. It's not easy for you soldiers to find a partner. I know. I will definitely send the photo to you."

The parade began. Ning Ying and Gu Jin stood in the military vehicle shed that was carrying supplies. The drums behind them were beating loudly, and Qin Zhao subconsciously covered her ears.

At this time, Zhou Xiaoli was wandering in the city with a few young people. When she saw Ning Ying and the handsome man beside her, her mouth was so wide open that an egg could almost fit in.
