Chapter 192: Watching Makes Me Anxious

Luo Caixia didn’t mind Lin Xiangnan’s teasing, she laughed along, and even laughed quite happily.

“Besides secretly cursing them, I can’t do anything to them. At least I can still laugh now. Liu Feng and the two of them are probably crying at home right now.”

Being able to escape that mud pit, Luo Caixia had to secretly rejoice.

Now, living a good life for herself was the most important thing, watching the Wang family’s drama was just a side benefit.

“You know what, Captain Wang has actually improved a lot recently. I haven’t heard anything about their family for a while.” Lin Xiangnan sighed, “When you were still at home, Captain Wang was so arrogant.”

“Liu Feng has gone crazy. How can Old Wang argue with a crazy person?”

As for why Captain Wang liked to boss her around, Luo Caixia knew the reason.

Who told her to be so submissive back then? She diligently took care of the family, took care of the children, and dared not ask for money. Captain Wang gave her whatever he wanted, and she took whatever he gave. She had grievances but didn’t dare to speak up.

Even the landlord’s farmhand wasn’t as honest as her.

Thinking about how she was back then, Luo Caixia wanted to slap herself twice.

If she had stood up for herself earlier, she wouldn’t have suffered so much.

“Anyway, it’s all in the past.” Lin Xiangnan patted Luo Caixia’s shoulder comfortingly, just about to end her “fishing” and go back to her work.

A lady passing by saw Luo Caixia and took the initiative to come over and ask, “I heard Liu Feng is mentally unstable. Did they send the Wang family’s child to the daycare center?”

“No,” Luo Caixia shook her head.

“It’s karma, I knew Liu Feng would suffer sooner or later, she was too inconsiderate. You’ve had a hard time too…”

Listening to the lady’s comfort, Luo Caixia lowered her head, putting on a sad expression, not saying a word.

“Well, things are like this, you have to think positively.” The lady comforted her, ended the gossip, and left.

Lin Xiangnan was a little confused and asked, “Who is she?”

“I don’t know.”

“Then why did she tell you all this.”

“She looks familiar, she should be a worker from the workshop. I don’t know her, but she knows me.” Luo Caixia thought for a moment and added, “Many people in the factory know me.”

Lin Xiangnan understood. Luo Caixia and Liu Feng were the two hot topics in their factory for a while.

“People always come to me and say those things, and they ask me about the Wang family’s business. I get tired of hearing it, so I just put on a sad face, and no one will bother me anymore.” Luo Caixia explained softly.

“No wonder you’re so well-informed now.”

It’s all because everyone is so gossipy.

Lin Xiangnan didn’t really want to know, she had followed this melon the whole time, and by now, she found the news about Captain Wang’s family boring.

What’s so interesting about an old man making trouble?

She waved to Luo Caixia and said, “My break time is over, I’m going back to work.”

“Go ahead. Tell Aunt Hu to come and visit me when she has time. I can’t go back to the family quarters in my current situation.”

“Okay, I’ll tell my mom.”

Lin Xiangnan returned to the office and just sat down when Sun Yi asked, “Where did you go just now?”

“I went to the workshop, why?”

Sun Yi pursed his lips, awkwardly laughed, “Just now Chief Engineer Zhang asked about you, I said you must have gone to the archive room, and Chief Engineer Zhang went to the archive room to find you.”

Soon, Chief Engineer Zhang came back. Seeing Lin Xiangnan, he complained, “Where did you go? I went to the archive room and the workshop, but I couldn’t find you.”

Lin Xiangnan was calm and said, “I had a stomachache, I went to the bathroom.”

She couldn’t say that she went to chat with Luo Caixia while she was at work.

“Come with me to the office. I have something to discuss with you.” Chief Engineer Zhang thought for a moment and said, “Sun Yi, come too.”

Lin Xiangnan searched her mind, there didn’t seem to be any big events recently, so she followed Chief Engineer Zhang to his office with a relaxed expression.

“Here’s the thing, Factory 130 encountered a small problem and asked our factory for help. Jin Baoguang specifically asked for you, what do you think?”

Before Lin Xiangnan could say anything, Chief Engineer Zhang said, “We are all brother factories, when one is in trouble, eight come to help. My idea is to send you and Sun Yi.”

This time, the help was sincere, and they even sent the backbone of their factory.

Many high-level bosses were suppressed and exiled due to their status. Now, when each factory encountered difficulties, they could only rely on these “rookie” chickens to help each other.

“How long will we be gone?” Lin Xiangnan asked.

“If it’s fast, two or three months. If it’s slow, it might take half a year.” Chief Engineer Zhang replied.

Before Lin Xiangnan could say anything, Sun Yi happily asked, “When do we leave? I can go anytime.”

This kind of temporary transfer came with basic salary and various subsidies, and the factory they were helping would also provide them with various benefits.

The two factories were not far apart, and it wouldn’t affect their going home during holidays. Sun Yi looked forward to this business trip.

Lin Xiangnan hesitated, “I have a lot of things going on at home.”

As soon as she finished speaking, she received two disapproving looks.

They had been in the factory for so long, who didn’t know who? Chief Engineer Zhang knew very well about Lin Xiangnan’s family situation.

It seemed that family matters didn’t really concern her, so Lin Xiangnan quickly added, “My child is still young.”

“No matter how young, you have family members to help take care of him. You can also go home during holidays, there’s nothing to worry about.” Chief Engineer Zhang said seriously, “Jin Baoguang held my hand and begged me to send you, he’s counting on you to help.”

Speaking of Jin Baoguang, Lin Xiangnan thought of his red-rimmed eyes. Their generation had a hard time.

Now Lin Xiangnan couldn’t refuse outright, she said with hesitation, “Then I’ll go back and discuss it with my family.”

Her family’s ambition was much stronger than hers.

As soon as she mentioned the business trip, Hu Meili volunteered, “I’ll help you pack your bags.”

“Huh? I haven’t decided whether to go or not yet.”

Hu Meili said with great confidence, “The task has come, even if the sky falls, we have to complete the task. Do you think you can just refuse to go?”

Military orders are like mountains, not only for people like Gu Zhenhua who are in the army, but also for workshop workers.

When they were young, Hu Meili and the others had also raced against time many times.

“When you go, work hard. Don’t hold the team back. Just bear with the little inconveniences in life, you’ll get used to it. The main thing is to complete the task.”

Lin Xiangnan looked at Hu Meili and couldn’t help but sigh, “No wonder our great China can rise. Your ideological awareness is so high.”

“I’m also puzzled. How did I raise such a lazy bum.”

Hu Meili couldn’t stay idle, while Lin Xiangnan couldn’t get busy.

It was like a chatterbox watching a stutterer speak, it was just so anxious.
