Chapter 237 - Chapter 237 237. Huo Xueying_1
Chapter 237: 237. Huo Xueying_1 Chapter 237: 237. Huo Xueying_1 The amusement park in this provincial capital city was indeed very large.
Song Tan took Qiaoqiao and played from noon until dusk, having a blast on every single ride.
As night fell, the park lit up with colorful neon lights that twinkled everywhere. The various mascot figures indeed gave Qiaoqiao quite an eyeful.
He left reluctantly beside Song Tan, heading to the entrance:
“Sister, if I work really hard, can I come here again in the future?”
Who could refuse such a darling?
Song Tan nodded resolutely, “For sure, next time I’ll take you to a different amusement park.”
“Hehehe…”
Qiaoqiao fondled the balloon in his pocket, holding a massive cotton candy in his hand, feeling completely content at the moment.
It was now almost 7:00 in the evening, and Zhang Yanping had gone to meet up with old friends after delivering the items.
Song Tan belatedly remembered Huo Xueying.
When she first came back, the first distasteful takeout she had was provided by Huo Xueying. However, since discussing her resignation, the other hadn’t contacted her again.
Reflecting now, Song Tan guessed that Huo Xueying was probably a bit angry that she had left so abruptly without so much as a goodbye.
She took out her phone and discovered that Wu Lei, who had been silent for 800 years, had sent her a message and even made a phone call. Unfortunately, perhaps the bumper cars were too thrilling, so she hadn’t noticed at all.
[Tantan, when do you plan to come back? I’ll bring Lili to visit Auntie too.]
[Missed call.]
[Why aren’t you answering the call? Lili really wants to go back to our hometown for a visit. We’ll wait for you at the entrance of the amusement park.]
Sent at 18:35.
All was well. She might not like it, but it wasn’t right to leave someone hanging, so she hurriedly replied:
[We’re driving back, already at the entrance of the amusement park.]
Remembering there was a bottle of leftover honey in the car, she also sent a message to Huo Xueying.
[Xueying, it’s been a long time since we last talked. I went back to my hometown to recuperate and farm. Just happened to come to Ning City today. Do you still live at the same place? I brought you some local products.]
Although they were both fresh graduates, Huo Xueying, as a native of Ning City, had indeed been a great help to Song Tan when she first entered the workforce.
She had to remember this kindness in her heart.
At this time, Huo Xueying’s reply was practically instant:
[Big shot, you finally remembered me! And here I thought you no longer wanted friends after you left the job.]
When she said this, Huo Xueying felt a bit sour inside.
It’s expected that relationships might fade after someone resigns, and she was prepared for it. But over the past two years, she and Song Tan had worked together every day, through conflicts and reconciliations. It didn’t seem right that Song Tan would just leave and disappear without a word!
Out of spite, she didn’t message her, and Song Tan really didn’t reply at all.
Thinking about it made her angry.
But now she had finally received a message!
The young lady let out a sigh of relief in her heart, feeling as though she had obtained some major victory.
But she still had to vent her complaints: [Don’t come to my place; I’m still at the office pulling an all-nighter. After you left, the boss hired people three times, but nobody said they could handle so much work…]
“Now it’s a fine mess. One person’s job is covered by three, and the combined salary is nearly 20,000.”
“I’m telling you, that Zhou Papi is regretting it now. He keeps asking me to call you, but I refuse!”
After sending a long voice message, she seemed to suddenly remember something and hurriedly sent another:
“But are you finding it hard to farm at home now? If you want to come back to work, I’ll just pretend to call you, and we’ll have to negotiate a higher salary.”
Ah, memories are too distant, even Papi boss seems kind and amiable now.
Song Tan quickly declined, “No, no, I’ve discovered that I actually have a talent for farming. The villagers all say I do a better job than they do.”
“This time, I’ve brought some honey I harvested from bees we’re keeping at home. Don’t give it away, keep it for yourself.”
She glanced at the time and estimated the company’s approximate location: “I’ll message you in about half an hour, come down to get it then.”
No sooner had she sent the message than she heard a shout from up ahead: “Tantan!”
Looking up, she indeed saw Wu Lei and Zhu Li arm in arm, waving at her.
Remembering that she had to take two more people back to Yun City, and they were probably headed to Peach Forest, Song Tan sighed silently.
It’s just the way social obligations are.
Her eldest uncle and aunt had been very good to her, helping her with work for a long time. Their son wanted to bring his girlfriend to see the peach blossoms; she couldn’t just flat out refuse.
But she was honest: “Brother Wu Lei, I’ve planted watermelons under the peaches in our orchard, there’s barely any room to walk.”
“If you’re thinking of running through the hills and fields or taking photos with peach blossoms, I’m afraid it’s not really possible.”
“Ah?” Wu Lei exclaimed in disappointment.
Zhu Li’s face also looked a bit dismayed, but she quickly smiled again:
“It doesn’t matter. I just wanted to visit Leilei’s hometown and see such a large peach orchard. I’ve never seen one before and wanted to take some photos.”
Song Tan looked at her significantly, then nodded, “Okay, Brother Wu Lei. How did you two get here?”
Wu Lei smiled, “You forgot, Zhu Li and I, we both work in Ning City. Yesterday was Lili’s birthday, so we took a couple of days off. It just so happens that tomorrow and the day after are Saturday and Sunday, so we can take a trip back home.”
“By the way, you said you drove here, who’s driving and whose car is it?”
Song Tan pointed to the parking lot: “You forgot, Brother Wu Lei, I’m farming at home, and we have to haul goods around, so I bought a Little Pika.”
“If you two don’t mind a beat-up ride, you can get in, and we’ll head back together.”
Zhu Li frowned slightly: “A pickup truck, huh…”
Disappointment was evident, but Wu Lei was thrilled:
“That’s great, I was thinking whether I should buy tickets for you. This saves us a good amount of money.”
“Let’s go,” he urged, walking ahead, “it’s almost 7 o’clock. It will probably be midnight by the time we get home. Let’s hurry up.”
This time Qiaoqiao learned to be a good listener, she didn’t say a word while the others were talking, just curiously sizing up Wu Lei and Zhu Li.
Then, when everyone was about to get into the car, he spoke up: “Brother Leilei, remember to hold your bag close. We still have to pick up Brother Yanping.”
“Brother Yanping?” Wu Lei, who had just gotten into the back seat with his girlfriend, was taken aback: “Zhang Yanping? How did he come to be here? How are you together?”
Song Tan remained silent, and Qiaoqiao glanced at her before immediately saying, “Brother Yanping has been working with my sister for a very long time! So he was rewarded with a trip to the amusement park, too. But it’s a pity, he still has work unfinished, so we have to pick him up to continue working.”
“Oh, right.”
Wu Lei remembered: “Tantan, you’re selling vegetables now, right? Is it because it’s not easy to sell them in Yun City that you have to come to Ning City? That must drive up the cost of the vegetables.”
