"I haven’t reported the matter yet, which ans I can give you a chance. But if you don’t know how to cherish it, I’m guessing the organization will want to have a talk with you. By that ti, you can kiss your future goodbye!"
Upon hearing Director Song’s words, Shen Yun was at first startled, then quickly stood up and bowed deeply to Director Song with a face full of gratitude, "Thank you, Director, I truly thank you! I promise from now on I will focus solely on my work and not think about any other nonsense."
"Sit down and talk."
Director Song raised his hand, signaling Shen Yun to sit back down, and then he said, "You are a capable comrade. The country has nurtured you for over ten years and even recomnded you to study abroad. This shows that your abilities are recognized by the country. But if you insist on taking the wrong path, the country losing soone as talented as you, though a loss, is utterly negligible. Do you know why?"
"I do. The country has a multitude of talented people and is constantly developing more talent. It won’t lack just one person like ," Shen Yun now saw things clearly.
Director Song nodded, "Good that you understand. Also, regarding your personal issues, do you want to take so ti to solve them yourself, or do you want the organization to help you find soone?"
"I... I don’t want to remarry!"
Feeling anxious, Shen Yun dared not look at Director Song.
"Strictly speaking, the organization doesn’t need to interfere with your personal issues, but as long as you don’t have a family of your own, it’s hard for to be sure whether your heart is still set on my son-in-law. Shen Yun, both officially and personally, I don’t want you to be involved with Yanqing in any way. As the saying goes: a tree lives for its bark, a person lives for their face. You have both talents and looks, along with a stable job and inco, finding an outstanding male comrade to remarry shouldn’t be difficult."
Shen Yun remained silent, then after a long mont, she gave her reply, "I’ll think about it. If... If the organization does have suitable candidates, I could also et with them." Her voice was hoarse, and these words were not easy for Shen Yun to say, almost as if her heart was bleeding, and it was very painful.
Director Song observed Shen Yun for a mont, then nodded, "Okay, let’s settle the matter this way."
"Then I’ll leave you to your work."
Shen Yun stood up and left.
Back in the dormitory, the mont Shen Yun recalled what she’d said to Director Song, she imdiately lay down on the bed and cried inconsolably.
Why?
Why couldn’t she let go?
Knowing it was just unrequited love, just her own one-person show, why couldn’t she let go? Did she really... Did she really need another marriage to cut off her feelings completely?
...
It was past four in the afternoon when Luo Yanqing appeared in Director Song’s office.
"I thought you wouldn’t co, kid."
Greeting Luo Yanqing to take a seat, Director Song said with a smile.
"I’ll go to the police station first and then head back to the compound. I’ll return to the office in three days," Luo Yanqing stated expressionlessly. "Can you now tell the details about her situation?"
Director Song knew who Luo Yanqing was referring to, and he began, "The matter goes back to last year..."
Without hiding anything, Director Song told Luo Yanqing everything about how Wang Guilan had repeatedly visited the Langcheng Welfare Institute. Afterward, he added, "Oh, and Xiao Li talked about Wang Guilan with your godmother during a casual conversation. The girl doesn’t want to affect your work and begged us not to tell you about the incident."
"It’s my fault that Xiao Li was startled today," Luo Yanqing said as he stood up. "I will go to the police station now to see her."
