Chapter 384: Chapter 384: Uninvited
“Right, Feng Yi didn’t go to work today? Oh, I see, well then, you two hurry to the factory to handle the procedures. Feng Yi is becoming a regular worker, and you are reporting directly… Yes, in your work, you must be conscientious, and don’t forget to flip through your old textbooks when you have free ti. Okay, that’s it, goodbye!”
Knowing what Mrs. Qi had done for Feng Yi, Old Master Feng truly felt ashad. Therefore, with a phone call this noon, he turned Feng Yi’s temporary job into a regular position and secured a regular spot for Mo Yan as well, as a way of thanking Mo Yan for taking Feng Yi in.
Originally, Feng Yi was at work when he got the notice from the factory office. Emotion overtook him instantly, and he used the excuse of feeling unwell to return to Mo Yan’s house, where he lay in bed motionless.
In the end, it was Mo Yan who coaxed out the reason. Right now, she was dragging Feng Yi out to call Kang Li. On one hand, she wanted to seek advice from Kang Li; on the other, she hoped to persuade Feng Yi through Kang Li not to push away the job he had due to the resentnt in his heart.
As for pride, sotis there’s no need to consider it at all.
Especially when dealing with one’s own father, a father who owed much to himself, what’s the use of talking about pride?
In short, there’s a saying, if soone offers you a favor, just accept it wholeheartedly. Whether or not to acknowledge the sentint can be considered later!
After ending the call, Kang Li returned to bed to resu being her “salted fish”…
As the fifteenth of the first lunar month passed, April arrived in the blink of an eye.
That afternoon, Kang Li sat in the wicker rocking chair in the yard, enjoying the warm sunshine with her eyes closed, inhaling the faint jasmine fragrance carried by the fresh breeze.
“Knock knock knock!”
“Co in.”
Hearing soone knocking at the courtyard door, Kang Li slowly opened her fox eyes, picking up the red-colored novel rested on her abdon, borrowed from Mrs. Qi. Well, ‘borrowed’ is a term used loosely here; it’s more like Mrs. Qi saw Kang Li’s interest in the book and outright gave it to her.
She casually closed the book and placed it on the side table, sitting up straight and looking towards the courtyard door, only to see a face, unfamiliar yet sowhat recognizable, co into view.
After a brief search of her mory, Kang Li recognized who the visitor was.
“Your family’s courtyard is quite uniquely arranged.”
“Just average.”
Kang Li curved her lips into a slight smile, responding softly to the other party.
“You rember , right?”
The visitor, acting quite familiar, approached Kang Li and seated herself in the small armchair beside her.
“I once had the pleasure of eting you at my godparents’ ho. May I ask what brings Comrade Shen to see ?”
Yes, the visitor was indeed Shen Yun.
This person had just officially started working at the research institute a week ago and took advantage of the weekend to move into the family compound with her son and the young nanny hired by her family.
The reason Shen Yun ca over to see Kang Li today was that she had felt unwell for the past couple of days, had taken sick leave to rest at ho, but with her son at kindergarten and only the young nanny at ho, she didn’t know why, but she found herself wandering outside until she reached the door of Kang Li’s ho.
“Nothing important, just that I’ve been ho sick these past couple of days, and it’s been boring alone. So I ca over for a walk and to chat with you,” Shen Yun said, maintaining an appropriate smile on her face.
Kang Li raised an eyebrow: “Comrade Shen doesn’t seem to stand on ceremony.” Having seen people who make themselves at ho, she hadn’t seen anyone as forward as this. They could hardly be considered acquaintances, having t just once, and yet here was Shen Yun, paying a direct visit today.
Wasn’t this a bit too abrupt?
Shen Yun felt montarily embarrassed, but she quickly adjusted her facial expression and said with a smile, “Not to ntion that I and Comrade Luo Yanqing are now colleagues in the sa institute, but even when I was abroad…”
