Chapter 641 Fu Qingjin's Visit
When Commander Liu returned at noon, he handed a stack of documents to Fu Qingjin, saying, "Take a look!"
Fu Qingjin picked up the document with a puzzled look and flipped through it, only to find that it was Jin Yue's biography.
It turns out that Commander Liu had always thought Jin Yue was unreliable, so he secretly sent someone to investigate. What they found was shocking.
Jin Yue turned out to be a hoodlum, and he even had a relationship with Luo Ning.
He only got into the Jidu Cultural Troupe after getting close to the Ke family.
"I had the guards look into what you said. Jin Yue went to Anning Film and Television to ambush Luo Ning and got into a scuffle with Xie Chang'an's younger brother. When he chased after Luo Ning, he fell into the sewer!"
After reading the information, Fu Qingjin was so angry that she trembled all over.
Well, that Jin Yue is not only a liar, but also a scoundrel.
The information found here is almost identical to what Luo Ning said.
Yingge was completely fooled by Jin Yue, and complained a lot about Luo Ning. She even took leave to take care of Jin Yue.
"Old Liu, what do you think we should do about this?"
"Quickly find a suitable family to marry Yingge off!" Commander Liu made the decisive decision.
"Will this work?" Fu Qingjin immediately gave an "X" in her mind.
"That's the only way. I'll ask my old comrade to help me find out if anyone has a child who's been in a trial marriage. You go and talk to her!" Commander Liu said, then turned and left.
Fu Qingjin was a little disappointed. "Aren't you going to eat?"
"I'm not eating anymore. I have things to do at the military region, and I have to go back right away," Commander Liu said, and he had already left the house.
After thinking for a moment, Fu Qingjin also picked up her bag and went out, intending to discuss it with Luo Ning.
When they passed by Tong Lan's house, Tong Lan immediately ran out and saw Fu Qingjin, smiling as she said, "I knew it was you as soon as I heard you walking. Luo Ning went to your house today. What day is it?"
"Luo Ning is busy, let's talk about this later." Fu Qingjin quickened her pace and walked away, her footsteps echoing through the snow.
"Oh," Tong Lan felt a little disappointed and went inside, turning back every few steps.
A short while later, Fu Qingjin heard a noisy commotion. Xiong Pandi and a group of family members were fighting.
"I'll beat you ingrates to death, you heartless wretches."
"If it weren't for my persuasion, how could Luo Ning have been willing to spend money to set up this workshop? You've all gotten your share of the benefits, and you've left your mother out in the cold..."
"Xiong Pandi, if it weren't for you, woman, instigating us to run around all day, we would have had a place to work long ago!"
"This old woman's husband is gone, but she shamelessly clings to him. She's the worst woman in the entire military region!"
"She's incompetent yet always causes trouble, delaying our money-making efforts! Let's teach her a lesson today and show her what we're capable of!"
Soldiers on duty nearby heard the commotion and rushed to break up the fight.
The news quickly reached the military headquarters, and Jin Danian immediately sent people to escort Xiong Pandi out of the Jidu Military Region.
When Fu Qingjin arrived at Luo Ning's house, Luo Ning was feeling sleepy and was about to go to sleep.
"Look, I came here without saying hello. I hope I didn't bother you?" Fu Qingjin said apologetically.
"No, it's rare to have such a guest. Please have a seat. There's no time like the present, let's make some coffee!" Luo Ning said as she went to the kitchen and brought out the coffee grinder and brewing equipment, secretly wondering why Fu Qingjin had come.
Luo Ning picked up the coffee beans and put them into the grinder by hand. Today, he only needed to grind enough for two people, so he didn't need to use the electric grinder.
Fu Qingjin watched with curiosity as Luo Ning ground coffee beans, boiled water, and cleaned up the machine, exclaiming in amazement, "Wow, making coffee is so complicated! I used to just brew it!"
"Each has its own fun!"
Luo Ning poured a cup of freshly brewed coffee and placed it in front of Fu Qingjin. She then went to the kitchen and brought out several plates of pastries, warmly inviting Fu Qingjin to taste them.
On days when she doesn't have to go to the office, she has more free time.
Xie Chang'an likes sweets, so she often makes pastries and other treats to keep on hand.
She brought out the electric oven, so baking cookies and pastries was no problem at all.
When she called home last time, her father said that electricity had been restored to their hometown, and the two electric ovens she bought had come in handy.
The village road has been repaired, the workshop bought a pickup truck for delivery, and the whole village has entered the electric era, running on the road to prosperity. This is truly a cause for celebration!
Fu Qingjin was drawn in by the aroma of the coffee. She took a sip and found it to be much more fragrant and mellow than the coffee she used to drink, with just the right amount of sweetness.
Looking at the snowflakes fluttering outside the window, she said with a bright smile, "You're living a leisurely life, but Chang'an is very busy. He not only has to train, but also go to disaster relief! The snow this year is too heavy."
Luo Ning then understood what Xie Chang'an had been busy with lately; no wonder he fell asleep as soon as he got back.
She didn't ask Chen Fan to investigate Xie Chang'an; they hadn't reached that point yet.
Fu Qingjin must have heard the rumors circulating in the military region, and she came here today specifically to explain.
"I guess I've taken up all the leisure time, which is why Xie Chang'an is so busy!"
Fu Qingjin couldn't help but chuckle. Luo Ning was truly an interesting person; no wonder Chang'an cherished her so much.
She put down her coffee cup and sighed. "Old Liu has always been against Yingge marrying Jin Yue. He even had someone investigate, and it turned out that Jin Yue was a hoodlum who had cleaned up his act. Yingge was completely fooled by him. Old Liu's idea is to find someone of equal social standing and have her marry him immediately, and keep everything else simple!"
"No, Teacher Fu, Commander Liu's forceful approach, while solving the problem once and for all, will backfire!"
Luo Ning understood from Fu Qingjin's words that Liu Yingge had successfully disappointed her and had been led astray by Jin Yue.
The original owner was fooled in the same way. I hope she can hold her ground and not lose too badly.
Chen Fan discovered that Jin Yue had gotten into the Jidu Cultural Troupe through the Ke family's connections, so he waited for him here.
She needs to figure out a way to get rid of that jerk.
"You're thinking the same thing as me!" Fu Qingjin rubbed her forehead, feeling utterly overwhelmed.
"I also disagree with Lao Liu's arbitrary approach. Yingge will definitely remarry, but not now!"
The problem now is that Yingge has been deceived too much and is determined to marry Jin Yue. She won't listen to anyone's advice, and I really don't know what to do!
This is indeed a difficult matter. Luo Ning pondered for a while, "Yingge harbors resentment towards me, so she definitely won't listen to what I say. Go find Jin Huan and tell her to keep an eye on things and make sure Yingge doesn't suffer any losses. At the same time, find her a more assertive partner, someone who can keep the Ke family in check in Jiang Province."
Luo Ning's gaze shifted, and she suddenly thought of someone...
Fu Qingjin nodded; this was the only option for now.
"I feel much more at ease after chatting with you for a while," Fu Qingjin said sincerely.
"Your coffee is delicious. I'll be a regular customer from now on."
"Great! I couldn't be happier!" Luo Ning smiled, her eyes crinkling. Fu Qingjin was on the same level as Ling Wei from her previous life; they could chat together.
She suddenly thought of Tong Lan and felt a little sad. "I'm not a good person. I can't reach Tong Lan's level. Feelings are the most fragile thing. It's amazing that I can still remember the good things we did for each other."
"I understand!" Fu Qingjin was very happy that Luo Ning would confide in her, and felt very sorry for Tong Lan.
Fu Qingjin stayed for more than an hour before reluctantly leaving.
At 9 p.m., in Jin Yue's ward at the military hospital, just as he was about to successfully abduct Fu Qingjin, a group of thugs suddenly rushed in, beat him up, and left.
Liu Yingge had never seen such a scene before, and she was so frightened that her soul trembled.
Jin Yue coughed up blood, looking as if he had been run over by a Dongfeng heavy truck, and glared angrily at Liu Yingge, "It's all your fault!"
Liu Yingge covered her face and ran out crying to call for doctors and nurses.
