Chapter 186: 186 is not bad

After work, Jiang Xinyu pushed her bike and left the factory, where all the workers she encountered warmly greeted her.

Jiang Xinyu also cheerfully exchanged a few words with everyone.

She headed straight to the restaurant, where only She Xiaoyun and Liu Yuwei had arrived.

Seeing Jiang Xinyu approaching, Jiang Cong greeted her enthusiastically.

"Director Jiang, you’re making me feel a bit uncomfortable with all this."

"Director Jiang, sister, I’ve been looking forward to seeing you for a long time, and I haven’t properly thanked you for the New Year gift yet."

"I also need to thank Director Jiang. I really liked the tea set you gave me."

"Hehe, as long as you like it."

"Xinyu, about today’s meeting..."

"Sister She, let’s talk about it later. Why were you looking for me?"

"Secretary Liu, Xinyu and I will head in first, we have some things to discuss."

"Alright, I’ll keep watch at the door for you two," Liu Yuwei joked.

She Xiaoyun pulled Jiang Xinyu into the private room. "Xinyu, I wanted to tell you that I went on a blind date."

"Sister She?"

"You’ve noticed that I have feelings for Lv Beiguang, right? It’s been three years without any response, and I’m tired."

"Sister She, I’m quite familiar with Lv Beiguang. He’s really just got a nice face, right?"

"Yes, I’m drawn to his looks; otherwise, I wouldn’t keep trying to win him over."

"You have such a good personality, Sister She. No matter who you end up with, you’ll surely be happy in the future."

"Yes, I think so too. What about you?"

"Me? I haven’t really thought about it yet." Is spring coming soon? Two people around me are both looking for a partner.

"Haha, I’m curious to see who you’ll end up with. Xinyu, did you know? I was once jealous of you because Lv Beiguang treats you differently than others."

"Really? I never noticed. Maybe it’s because we went on a business trip together?"

"Sister She, have you taken a liking to the person you met?"

"Hmm, he’s alright, just an ordinary guy, a workshop director at a steel factory."

"His job’s alright, what about his family?"

"He’s the eldest in his family, with two younger brothers and a younger sister."

"Quite a big family."

"Yes, he has to support his family. As the eldest, he’s like a father."

"You’ll have a hard time after getting married."

"I know. His family said we can live in the county, but we have to send twenty yuan home every month."

"Twenty? That’s manageable; just take it step by step."

"Exactly. We’re getting engaged next month and married on May Day."

"So soon? There’s only two months left, is the house ready?"

"He’s been really considerate and secretly bought a house in the county, telling his family it’s a rented place."

"Sister, with behavior like that, you’ll want to keep an eye on him in the future. It’s not that you shouldn’t trust him, just be cautious."

"I hadn’t thought of that, I get it now."

"Sister She, I mean no offense, just speaking my mind."

"Haha, I know your intention. Shouldn’t they be here by now?"

"Shall we go out and take a look?"

"Forget it, let’s just wait here."

"Sister She, why don’t you come over for dinner at my place on Saturday? Bring your boyfriend, and Wang Ailing can bring her boyfriend too, let’s all have a meal together at my place.

Since I’m leaving soon, I’m not sure if I’ll be able to make it to your wedding."

"That sounds great; we’ll come over on Saturday for lunch."

"Alright, I’ll prepare some good food for you."

The two were happily chatting when the door swung open and the other seven came in, with Jiang Cong entering last.

"You nine sit, I’ll go prepare."

"Everyone’s here, I have something to say. This time, when I go, I might not be able to bring anything back. Last time our textile factory led the way, but this time it’s government action. I wouldn’t dare openly smuggle."

"I figured it’d be like that," Hao Shichao sighed.

"Jiang Xinyu, our furniture factory will give you money for this trip; can you help us get timber?"

"I can’t make that decision. You’ll need to have your factory director speak to Mr. Shen about it; I can’t decide that. But I believe he’ll agree."

"Understood, we’ll go talk to the leader tomorrow."

"Jiang Xinyu, the grain you bring back will belong to our grain station, and our manager will send someone along this time."

"That’s good. It’ll make my responsibilities much lighter."

"Jiang Xinyu, be careful."

"I know. With so many people, I don’t need to take the lead. I’m just going as a translator."

The food arrived, and the nine of them ate and chatted. Only Lv Beiguang remained silent.

Everyone was used to him being like this and paid him no mind.

They were all savvy, noticing the change in She Xiaoyun.

After the meal, everyone left, with Lv Beiguang following behind Jiang Xinyu.

"What’s gotten into you today?"

"I’m worried about you. You’re still a kid; going out like this is too dangerous."

"There are many people, I’m not going to be in the spotlight. How’s the kid?"

"Doing alright, having lunch at school, and going home on his own in the morning and evening."

"Have you two adapted to it?"

Lv Beiguang sighed, "It’s okay, wanting to become closer in a short time is impossible."

"Take it slow. As the child grows up, they’ll learn to tell right from wrong."

"Hopefully. Oh, by the way, that person at our textile factory seems to be adapting well."

"I know. She drops by my house every once in a while."

Jiang Xinyu detected his helplessness.

"Lv Beiguang, to be honest, why don’t you just be with her?"

"I’ve had enough of them; why would I cause more trouble for myself?"

"Then settle down quickly. That way she’ll give up on you."

"There’s no suitable person, and I’m worried about the future and how she’d treat my child. I’m not saying she’d be unkind to the child, just worried I might overlook the kid."

"You’re overthinking it. Having so many concerns, isn’t it exhausting?"

"I can’t help it. Never mind, let’s not talk about me. Be cautious."

"I know. You should hurry home, having only the two kids at home isn’t ideal."

"I’ll escort you home."

The next morning, Jiang Xinyu had just settled down when Song Qingqing approached.

"Director Jiang, the county called, asking you to attend a meeting."

"By myself?"

"Yes."

"Alright, I understand. Please inform Mr. Qian and me." Jiang Xinyu slung on her bag and rode to the county.

"Luckily, today is already Friday; otherwise, I might have considered taking a leave," Jiang Xinyu muttered to herself.

She found Secretary Cao and learned the meeting had already started and she could just go in.

Shen Xueqi had been waiting for Jiang Xinyu. The meeting was held by County Magistrate Tao for all township leaders. Whether she attended wasn’t crucial, but Shen Xueqi insisted she come, wanting to see her reluctant expression.

Jiang Xinyu knocked and received a response before she pushed the door open, "Director Jiang, come on in. You’re invited here to share the situation over there with everyone."
