Send me to the countryside? Turn around and make you homeless!

Heroic and heroic.

This word flashed through her mind, and she felt that this was it, Linlin was now heroic and valiant.

"Why are you in Jing City?"

The two sat down at the table. Nian Lin looked at Tan Yuan carefully. Compared with her previous time in Huaiyin Brigade, Tan Yuan was in much better condition now and looked full of energy and confidence.

"Me? I wrote you a letter. I've set up a factory in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. It specializes in making velvet flowers, jewelry, and the like. The velvet flowers placed next to the coffin of that person this time were made in our factory. The factory director specially brought me here to see him off."

Let's talk about something by the way, but this matter is confidential, and Tan Yuan has no intention and cannot tell Nian Lin.

When it comes to the national level, both of them are adults and are not ignorant. They both know what to say and what not to say, and what to ask and what not to ask.

Nian Lin nodded and did not ask any further questions, but reminisced about the past with Tan Yuan.

Tan Yuan was also sensible and did not ask Nian Lin why she was here. As a soldier, it is her duty to obey orders, and she was here for a reason.

But looking at Nian Lin's thin face, I still couldn't help but feel distressed.

"I'm rich now. I accompanied our factory director to that banquet a few days ago and made a killing. Come on, I'll treat you to some hot pot!"

The mutton hotpot in state-owned restaurants is really delicious. Mutton is warm in nature, and it is very beneficial for girls to eat it.

Tan Yuan took the opportunity to give Linlin some good nourishment, hoping that she could gain some weight. Nianlin also had a rare holiday, so she could only spare some time to accompany Tan Yuan today. She had to go to her grandfather's house tomorrow, and she didn't know what else would happen later, so she naturally would not refuse Tan Yuan's kindness.

But as soon as I opened the door, I met an uninvited guest.

Zhang Xingguo.

Since that day's party, Tan Yuan has really not seen Zhang Xingguo. Now when she sees him coming over, Tan Yuan just feels unlucky.

The smiling face suddenly changed, and Zhang Xingguo found it funny.

"Why, Deputy Director Tan doesn't welcome me?"

"... Director Zhang, what a coincidence! How come you're here at lunchtime?"

After finally having some time alone with Linlin, she certainly didn't welcome anyone else to come, let alone Zhang Xingguo. Even if it was anyone else, Tan Yuan wouldn't welcome them either.

"Um... then it's just right for me to treat you to dinner?"

Zhang Xingguo nodded at Nian Lin who was next to Tan Yuan. The two of them did not seem surprised by each other and looked indifferent.

Tan Yuan felt strange, but then she thought it seemed quite normal. After all, they had dealt with each other when they were in Shu, and they had also seen each other at the party that day. It was normal not to be surprised.

Tan Yuan turned to look at Nian Lin, who nodded without objection, and the two-person group suddenly became a three-person group.

I haven't eaten mutton hotpot since I left Beijing, and I feel very satisfied to taste it again. Nian Lin helped Tan Yuan pick up the meat and watched her eat quietly.

It’s so wonderful! This is the scene. I don’t know how many times it has happened in my dreams. Now my dream has come true. It’s so wonderful.

"Eat, Linlin, eat more! Look how thin you've become!"

She tried her best to put meat into Nian Lin's bowl. Nian Lin smiled and ate the meat in the bowl slowly and leisurely.

"By the way, what exactly is it that brought you to see me so suddenly today?"

Tan Yuan turned her head to Zhang Xingguo, and Zhang Xingguo stopped what he was doing.

"The machines from the island are almost ready for delivery to Jiangsu and Zhejiang. I'm wondering if you'd like to go back. They might need you there."

Xiaodao has now decided on Tan Yuan. If Tan Yuan is not around, he is afraid that something will go wrong.

Tan Yuan paused: "So fast?!"

After thinking for a while, he looked at Nian Lin again: "Linlin, are you going back there later?"

Nian Lin shook her head and nodded again: "I'm not going there, but I have other tasks, and I can't stay in Beijing for two days. I should leave after I finish the things I have on hand."

She came back this time to follow orders from her superiors and to take care of some personal matters. As for when she will leave, it is still unknown, but she will definitely not stay in Beijing for too long.

"Where are you going next? Can you tell me?" Tan Yuan was very cautious even when asking questions, fearing that there might be some sensitive relationship that she couldn't know.

Nian Lin shook her head: "I don't know. I don't know where to go now. I won't go back to where I was before."

Life at the border was hard, but also safe and fulfilling.

But staying there forever? That was impossible. She had her own responsibilities to shoulder.

So what if she is a woman? She never thinks that she is inferior to those men. For example, at Jiang Qingxian's banquet that day, there were so many gay men, how many of them could compare to her?

Upon hearing this, Tan Yuan had an idea in her mind. She guessed that there might be another secret mission. Since it was a secret mission, it would not be convenient for her to continue asking.

Turning to look at Zhang Xingguo: "Okay, then I will go back early tomorrow morning. Don't forget to buy me a ticket."

With the idea that it would be a waste if you didn't use a tool, Tan Yuan gave orders to Zhang Xingguo without any mercy. Zhang Xingguo was used to her attitude and nodded in agreement.

The three of them were having dinner together and didn't notice that someone had already discovered them in the corner in the private room on the second floor.

"Qingxian, isn't that the one your family wanted to introduce you to? She's with the one from the Nian family. Tell me how they got together?"

In line with the principle of enjoying the fun, the female comrade told everything she had just seen in the box, adding some exaggeration to it.

"Do you think the Zhang family wants to form an alliance with that person? A powerful alliance?"

She expressed her guess that the Zhang family looked down on Jiang Qingxian, and Zhang Xingguo even brought a woman to Jiang Qingxian's blind date party. Isn't this a slap in Jiang Qingxian's face in public?

Now he is having dinner with the eldest daughter of the Nian family. There is nothing good about the Nian family. In their circle, they are just average. But Nian Lin's grandfather is not ordinary. Nian Lin is the only child left there. He may not like the Nian family, but he cannot dislike Nian Lin.

If he married Nianlin, wouldn't that mean he married all the resources of Nianlin's grandfather?

"That's impossible. I saw that woman was there that night, wasn't she? Maybe they were just... having dinner together?"

Another female comrade at the dinner table stretched her neck to look at the table in the corner downstairs. She had heard Zhang Xingguo say with her own ears that day that he was pursuing Tan Yuan, but now the three of them were sitting at the same table. This combination was really a bit strange.
