Chapter 833: Eight hundred and thirty-one, worry Chapter 833: Eight hundred and thirty-one, worry The Guard’s Wife smiled sheepishly and said, “Director! May I ask who recomnded Xiao Lin for the position?” She had been in a rush just now, afraid that she wouldn’t get to ask once Wang Haiyang entered the office, so she hastily stopped Wang Haiyang to inquire.
“Xiao Lin was placed here by the higher-ups,” Wang Haiyang didn’t hide it. He only knew that Lin Helian was arranged by the leadership above, but as to which leader it was, he had no idea. He had asked Zhang Qinghe, but Zhang Qinghe didn’t tell him.
“Then do you know Luo Shu?” The Guard’s Wife asked persistently.
“Luo Shu? Who’s that?” Director Wang looked at the Guard’s Wife with a face full of surprise.
Seeing Wang Haiyang’s reaction, everyone understood that he truly didn’t know who Luo Shu was, and they could only give up. After saying a few words to Lin Helian, all the Guard’s Wives left the sales point.
“Could it be that it really wasn’t Luo Shu who arranged for Sister Helian to be at the sales point?”
“It shouldn’t be, otherwise why wouldn’t even the director know.”
“Sister Helian said it was her friend who introduced her, right? Why don’t we ask Sister Helian for help next ti and have her friend arrange a job for us?”
“That’s a great idea!” Everyone agreed in unison.
Jiang Linlin saw the Guard’s Wives returning with their baskets and greeted them with a smile, “Where did all you sister-in-laws go?” She of course knew that they had followed Lin Helian to her workplace.
“We went to buy vegetables, but we ran into Sister Helian; she’s now working at the sales point, quite the sight to behold.”
“Isn’t a local residency required to work at a sales point?” Jiang Linlin asked in surprise. Getting a job at a sales point was sothing countless people dread of, and Lin Helian had such good fortune.
“It was Sister Helian’s friend who knows the leader at the sales point, and she arranged for her to work there.”
“Is her friend Luo Shu?” Jiang Linlin quickly asked. If it was Luo Shu, she would find a way to ingratiate herself with Luo Shu. As long as she didn’t offend Luo Shu, she shouldn’t have any trouble.
“No, we’ve already asked the sales point’s director, and he said it wasn’t Luo Shu who recomnded Lin Helian.”
Jiang Linlin felt a bit disappointed instantly. So it wasn’t Luo Shu who had secured the position, she thought, relieved that she hadn’t yet taken any action, sparing herself the wasted effort.
Ti flew by quickly, and soon another new year ca to an end, and life once again returned to its usual calm.
Luo Shu sat on a chair, holding a phone in one hand, chatting with Wang Fei on the other end of the line and holding a cup of juice in the other, sipping occasionally, “How has Xiaong been doing recently? Has she still not given up on Mo Li?” It had been a long while since Wang Fei, who had been really busy, had contacted her.
“She is now Mo Li’s assistant; she’s determined to win his affection. I’ve advised her several tis, but she says she won’t give up until she’s tried,” Wang Fei helplessly said. Chen Xiaong was her good friend, and she really didn’t want to see her hurt in love.
“Has there been any progress between her and Mo Li?” Luo Shu asked worriedly. She could help with anything except for matters of the heart, where she couldn’t intervene.
“No, Mo Li doesn’t feel that way about her. I talked to Mo Li last ti, and he said that Xiaong is very cute, very much like a younger sister,” sighed Wang Fei. It was a case of unrequited love. She felt helpless to assist!
“I’ll be returning to Jinchen in half a month; let’s get together then,” said Luo Shu. She’d ask Xiaong about her feelings when she saw her later.
“Great! I’ve missed you so much, I can barely stand it. How big is your belly now? Is walking tiring for you?” Wang Fei excitedly said when she heard Luo Shu would be returning to Jinchen.
“Walking isn’t tiring, but sleeping is a bit uncomfortable. As for how big my belly is, you’ll see it when you et ,” Luo Shu laughed. She had not seen everyone for a long ti and really missed them. She also missed her godmother, Aunt Chen, Mu Wan and others, but her current physical condition only allowed her to inquire about their well-being over the phone.
“That sounds good! Yujuan is also in Jinchen now, and her belly is getting pretty big,” Wang Fei ntioned. Thanks to Luo Shu, the school treated the dormitory roommates very leniently, even if they didn’t attend school for a long ti, the school didn’t hold it against them. They just needed to show up for their exams.
“I miss Yujuan too; it’s just that I can never get through to her by phone.” Luo Shu also sounded a bit frustrated. She should give each of them a communication talisman when they t next ti, to save herself the trouble of not being able to contact them.
After chatting with Wang Fei for a while longer, Luo Shu hung up the phone.
No sooner had she put the phone down than it rang again, Luo Shu reached for the phone, “This is Luo Shu.”
“Luo Shu, this is your godmother. How have you been feeling recently?” Zhao Aishu asked with concern. She had called Luo Shu over the New Year and had since been busy visiting relatives, unable to find the ti to call Luo Shu again.
“I’m fine, it’s just that I haven’t been able to visit you lately,” Luo Shu said apologetically. Her godmother had always been very kind to her, treating her like a daughter.
“Your own health is the most important thing; I’ll co to Jiangcheng to see you when I have the ti,” Zhao Aishu said. Ever since she adopted Yanyan, she had been focusing all her attention on her. Although she had wanted to visit Luo Shu, she really didn’t feel comfortable leaving Yanyan with soone else.
“In half a month, I’ll be back in Jinchen. You can co to Jinchen to see then, and don’t forget to bring Yanyan with you; I haven’t seen her in so long, I really miss her.” Cloud City was sowhat closer to Jinchen, and a round trip could be done by plane in one day.
“Once Yanyan is on break, I’ll bring her to see you, she’s been thinking about you too,” Zhao Aishu said with the happy smile of a mother. Ever since Yanyan ca into their lives, the house had been filled with laughter, and she and Old Xu felt as if they had beco much younger.
“Then I’ll wait for you two to co see ,” Luo Shu responded with a nod and a smile.
“Take good care of yourself and don’t worry about everything,” Zhao Aishu instructed. She knew Luo Shu’s personality well; Luo Shu always put her family and friends first, and whenever they needed help, she would do everything she could for them.
“I will,” Luo Shu promised with a smile.
Zhao Aishu glanced at the wall clock and noticed it was already three in the afternoon, “Luo Shu, I’m off to pick up Yanyan from school, I’ll call you another ti.”
“Okay! Goodbye, godmother!” After saying farewell to Zhao Aishu, Luo Shu placed the phone down.
Thinking of the issue she discussed with Wang Fei earlier, her eyebrows knit together. Her greatest concern at the mont was Xiaong; she only hoped Xiaong wouldn’t fall too deeply, or she would suffer greatly in the future.
