Chapter 560: Chapter 559: She Wants to Have a Father-Competition with ?
“Firstly, does Miss Lin have a work permit from the Foreign Trade Departnt? If you want to investigate her, you must go to Beijing and file a report to apply;”
“Secondly, ever since Miss Lin joined the ranks of the educated youth, she has been working hard and diligently. She performs very well, and no one knows this better than I do—as the Team Leader of Ten Miles Team;”
“Lastly, you little bastard, I don’t care how you strut around outside, but in my territory, you’d better keep quiet and behave yourself, or else I’ll kick you to death!”
“Moreover! Our entire team consists of poor peasants, you dare touch one of us and see what happens!”
Facing Sun Jun, most people would cower because he really could send soone to prison over a re word or a letter.
But Li Dahe did not show a hint of intimidation. As he himself put it, Ten Miles Team is now an advanced collective. The villagers’ ancestors were all poor peasants, plus there are descendants of martyrs and veterans, what does he have to fear?
On the surface, Li Dahe appeared nonchalant, but in reality, his heart was thumping loudly.
Is it those books? They were sent to Lin Nianhe by the Foreign Trade Departnt; there shouldn’t be any problem with them.
Or is it due to the Spring Trade Fair? Could it be that this little bastard really caused so trouble he can’t handle?
Or perhaps sothing went wrong with her parents in Beijing…
Li Dahe racked his brains, but couldn’t co up with any positive possibility.
Sun Jun had only said one sentence before being bombarded with retorts, but he wasn’t angry. He spoke calmly, as if he hadn’t noticed Li Dahe’s annoyance: “You misunderstand, I just have sothing to say to Comrade Lin.”
Li Dahe narrowed his eyes and stared at him: “Really?”
“Really.”
“She’s not here, tell .” Li Dahe had the look of a brazen rascal.
Sun Jun didn’t doubt Li Dahe’s words. After a mont of hesitation, he said, “Fine, I ca to inform Comrade Lin that—Shi Dongshan is about to be released.”
“Shi Dongshan?” Li Dahe was baffled, “Who?”
His mind was filled with thoughts of what kind of trouble Lin Nianhe could have caused and he didn’t imdiately recognize the na.
“Educated youth from the battalion, the daughter of Director Shi from the city. She was caught by last year when she tried to hold an assistance eting for Comrade Lin’s group,” Sun Jun explained, “Shi Chengkun has not fallen, so he managed to get her out. She will return to the battalion.”
“Ah, her.” Li Dahe grimaced with worry.
Sun Jun suddenly asked, “Has Comrade Lin returned yet?”
“Um…”
Li Dahe brought Sun Jun to the village school, where they coincided with the first graders having a physical education class. Wen Lan was teaching the children how to play table tennis, and Lin Nianhe was watching from the side.
“Miss Lin, co here.” Li Dahe waved at Lin Nianhe from the school entrance.
“Uncle Team Leader.”
Lin Nianhe responded and jogged over. Seeing the stranger beside Li Dahe, she smiled slightly and nodded to Sun Jun: “Hello comrade, I am the educated youth Lin Nianhe.”
Before Li Dahe could introduce him, Sun Jun suddenly stood up straight, his hands tightly along his seams, and gave Lin Nianhe a formal bow: “Greetings, sister-in-law.”
Lin Nianhe: “…?”
Li Dahe: “…?”
Lin Nianhe looked at Li Dahe with a completely bewildered face, desperately seeking an explanation with her eyes about who this man was.
“Cough cough cough,” Li Dahe coughed awkwardly and quickly said, “Miss Lin, this is Vice Director Sun, Sun Jun… Do you know each other?”
Lin Nianhe: “I’ve heard of him, but never t him.”
Sun Jun appeared sowhat uneasy. He glanced at Lin Nianhe apprehensively and seed to explain to soone: “I used to be under Brother Cheng’s command, my life was saved by Brother Cheng, he’s like a real elder brother to .”
Hearing this, the heavy weight in Li Dahe’s heart finally eased.
Lin Nianhe quickly said to Sun Jun, “I’ve heard Brother Yuncheng ntion you several tis before; it’s just that I’ve never had a chance to et you.”
Sun Jun looked flattered, opened his mouth but was at a loss for words.
Li Dahe wiped his face and unceremoniously slapped Sun Jun, “Talk business.”
“Okay, okay!”
Once the business was ntioned, Sun Jun regained his indifferent and slightly violent deanor.
He said, “Sister-in-law, Shi Dongshan who wanted to organize an assistance eting for you last winter will be released in the next few days. Her father, Shi Chengkun, has so tactics and connections. She might bring you so trouble, so I ca to give you a heads-up, so you can prepare.”
“Ah?”
Like Li Dahe, Lin Nianhe took a mont to rember who Shi Dongshan was.
After all, this person was nothing more than an insignificant passerby to her. Dealing with her had been a matter of convenience, and she had forgotten about her completely afterwards.
Lin Nianhe was not familiar with the current “struggles” and asked Sun Jun with a frown, “Will she involve my parents?”
“That’s impossible,” said Sun Jun, “I’ve been investigating Shi Chengkun for the last six months. He only has so connections in the city, he can’t reach up to Beijing.”
Lin Nianhe felt relieved, “Then it’s not a big issue. Shi Dongshan… what can she do?”
Lin Nianhe’s impression of Shi Dongshan was limited to being an overacting girl without much brains.
“Shi Dongshan’s ability…” Sun Jun pondered for a mont, shook his head, and a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes, “She just has a ‘good’ father, that’s all.”
“Ha, she won’t be thinking about competing with on our fathers, will she?”
Lin Nianhe thought it was impossible. There couldn’t be soone that stupid.
If it were just two educated youths tussling for Head Flower, they could fight for three days without shaking a single leaf from the tree; but if they dragged in the older generation… Lin Nianhe felt like she would be bullying through power.
Sun Jun looked at Lin Nianhe, and after a long silence, he only said, “Sister-in-law, maybe you should discuss it with Brother Cheng?”
Actually, he should have reported this matter directly to Su Yuncheng.
But without thinking, he knew—since he hadn’t been able to clear up that miscreant Shi Chengkun even after half a year—Brother Cheng wouldn’t hang him up on a crooked tree and thrash him only because there were no crooked trees within a hundred li.
So, following Zhou Xu’s suggestion, he went to Lin Nianhe.
“What do you want to discuss with ?”
A familiar voice sounded behind him, and Sun Jun’s hair stood on end.
Li Dahe watched as Vice Director Sun, who could stop a child’s nightti crying, turned into a scaredy-cat, and, confused, he stroked his hair.
Xiao Su only asked one question, was it really necessary for that kind of reaction?
For Sun Jun, yes, it was necessary.
With a dejected expression, Sun Jun turned back around and called out softly in the direction of Su Yuncheng, “Brother Cheng.”
Su Yuncheng glanced at him, “What are you doing here?”
“Shi Chengkun got his daughter out, she’s returning to the battalion,” Sun Jun said briefly, “I’m here to give Sister-in-law a heads-up.”
Sister-in-law.
Sister-in-law!
Su Yuncheng glanced quickly at Lin Nianhe, seeing her standing there with a sweet and happy smile, not angry at Sun Jun’s “Sister-in-law,” nor showing any sign of worries, he breathed a sigh of relief and his lips unconsciously curled up a bit.
“Brother Cheng, I, I…”
Sun Jun didn’t wait for Su Yuncheng’s reply, feeling dood, wanted to defend himself, but really had no confidence, and couldn’t continue after starting.
“Oh, I know now.”
Su Yuncheng’s tone was unusually calm, without a hint of anger.
Sun Jun: “…!”
Done for, he was done for; Brother Cheng was so angry that he couldn’t even bother to berate him!
