Part Three Chapter 83: Understanding Each Other 10

ther"I took the bus today.Tinglan declined because she had already made plans with Cheng Chen to take the bus together yesterday, but Wen Jian still enthusiastically invited her:"I'll take you to the...He lightly tapped her forehead: “One meal and you’re bought, am I not good to you” "Alright alright" 。She touched her forehead and said repeatedly, 。We chatted and laughed as we said goodbye to the squad leader and Zheng Ke. Then we drove home. 。Thinking about the past tonight, knowing they won't see each other tomorrow, the two of them became even more reluctant to part. It seemed like only constant intimacy and deep immersion in each other could lessen the longing for the next few days apart. 。Chen Ning was scheduled to have a meeting at her office the day after their visit, to summarize and report on the itinerary of the visiting delegation. Therefore, she wouldn't be able to stay home with him. 。He drove her there early, and when she got out of the car, she repeatedly confirmed: "You're on the evening flight, right I'll pick you up after work." 。Okay, you stay at work and focus on your job. 。As a result, the meeting that day ran from morning till night. Each department gave a summary report, followed by awards and commendations. No one dared to leave early. 。Chen Ning's heart pounded with anxiety. Afraid to show it, she could only steal glances at her phone and messages between tasks. 。"You go ahead and have your meeting. I'll head to the airport first." 。"Song Jingye sent a message" 。It's too late, if we don't leave now, we'll miss it. 。

Chen Ning's heart was almost breaking. 。The preceding leaders were giving inspiring speeches, and by the final stage, commending the outstanding members of the visiting group, besides several excellent seniors, there was also her and Xu Haichen. 。The commended colleague went onstage to receive the award. Chen Ling pulled her thoughts back, put away her phone, and walked smilingly toward the stage. 。

After reaching the stage, aside from the speeches by leaders, colleagues who were being commended also had to give a few words, and back and forth, another half hour passed. 。Finally, after the meeting ended and all the leaders left, she dashed out and hailed a car to rush to the airport. 。It was already time for him to board the plane. She knew she couldn't make it, but she had promised to see him off in the morning. Whether she could see him or not, she still wanted to go to the airport. 。

I miss him so much even though we just parted ways. Sitting in the car, my heart aches terribly, feeling empty like something is constantly scratching at it. 。At the airport, sitting foolishly near the security checkpoint, I felt that this way I could be closer to him. 。Today, the airport is particularly crowded with passengers, and there are long lines at the security checkpoints. 。After an unknown amount of time, she stood up and suddenly saw a familiar figure sitting on a chair not far away on the other side of the line. 。Her heart skipped a beat, it was like fireworks suddenly bursting in her chest. She wanted to dash through the long line and reach him on the other side, but everyone there was huddled close with their luggage, no one made way for her, and she didn't want to push her way through awkwardly. 。I had to run quickly to the back of the line and eagerly detour around from the other side. 。He sat there, looking serious as he talked on the phone. The moment he looked up and saw her, he was taken aback for a second, then continued talking but reached out with one hand to take hers. 。Chen Ning was happy to see him, breathless but quietly standing aside waiting for him to finish his phone call. 。He finally hung up, "How did you get here" 。"Chen Ling immediately threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly, "I thought you were leaving, so I couldn't send you off." 。Because we agreed in the morning, if I don't send it, there will be a big empty space in my heart. 。Song Jingye: "Southwest side has heavy rain, flights delayed temporarily." 。"Why didn't you tell me, you said you were already on the plane" 。"I don't know what time it will be delayed to, I was afraid you would wait too long, and it wouldn't be safe for you to go back, so I didn't tell you." 。"Song Jingye said, and then got up, taking her in one hand and pulling the suitcase with the other towards the door." 。。He blurted out. 。"But what if we could fly right now" "Even if we could, it's too late." 。He was going to leave tonight because he had to go into the mountains early tomorrow morning, but now that she's here, he doesn't feel comfortable letting her go home alone late at night. 。"Will this delay your work Then I'll go back now, you can wait here alone." 。Work is the most important thing. 。"It's okay, the flight is delayed and we wouldn't have made it anyway." 。"It was mostly based on his understanding of her. Before he flew, she couldn't have left; she would only find a place to secretly wait for him." 。He rebooked for the 6 a.m. flight and didn't want to travel back and forth, so he booked a hotel near the airport. 。This extra time we had together that night felt like a stolen treasure, precious and cherished. But it also lessened the sorrow of our parting. 。

In the morning, Chen Ling insisted on getting up early to see him off at the airport, and then went straight back to the office after he boarded his flight. 。Since I came back from the country, I've been quite drained. While he was here, I felt like I had been injected with chicken blood; I didn't feel tired at all. But as soon as he left, even though my physical condition is good, I started to feel a bit weary. 。

And Xu Hachen, because of the so-called "feeling" online, they now maintain a tacit understanding in the unit, both proactively keeping their distance and no longer eating together. 。At noon, Chen Ling received a call from an unknown number. As soon as she answered, a high-pitched voice came through, "Little girl, it's me!" 。"Chen Ning frowned and replied, "May I ask who you are""In the country, you saved my grandson and my old man" 。"Then Chen Ling remembered: "Hello Auntie, you all seem to be doing well" "Very well, very well. Thanks to you at the time, you're our family's savior." 。"

Chen Ling awkwardly returned: “No, no, it's what I should do.” 。"

"Little girl, my daughter and son-in-law want to thank you in person. Would you be free sometime, and we could pick you up and have dinner together as a way of showing our gratitude " 。"Chen Ling hurriedly waved her hand and said, "No need really, this is my job responsibility, and besides I didn't do anything. Your safety is more important than anything else." 。"

She waved with a wide arc, taking a moment to realize that the other person couldn't see her waving." 。She declined his invitation to dinner, said a couple of irrelevant things, and hung up the phone. 。The next morning, the old woman called her again: “Little girl, we’re at the door of your company now. Come out for a bit, okay” 。"Aunt, is there something the matter"

"You wouldn't have dinner with us, so my husband and I came up with an idea. We made a banner to express our gratitude to you. We'd like to send it down to you today. It won't take you more than a few minutes." 。“A banner of praiseChen Ning chuckled a little, but also felt a touch of happiness, and said: “I’ll be down right away.” 。As soon as I stepped out, I saw the old lady and her family of five standing next to the guards at the unit's entrance. I was happy to see her and waved to her. 。The child politely greeted: "Hello, sister" 。"The child's mother also said: "Ms. Chen, thank you so much for helping our family. If it weren't for you..." 。As she spoke, her voice choked with emotion. Just thinking about it sent shivers down her spine. 。The old lady came over enthusiastically, "Honestly, no words can express our family's gratitude." 。Saying that, he handed the banner to her. 。ed down, unable to move. Her hands flailed wildly, reaching for the wall lamp on the bedside table. The warm yellow light illuminated the man above her, his eyes gleaming with ferocity and ruthlessnes...
