Chapter 705 Where can't we go?
Old Master Qin glanced at Qin Hengzhi.
Deep down, I approve of Lu Qiaoge's decision.
Although it seems like an exception, it was actually a favor given in advance by the General Administration in order to keep Lu Qiaoge.
Otherwise, with Lu Qiaoge's education, ability, and qualifications, where couldn't she go?
It's not necessary to go to the General Administration, right?
Grandpa Qin thought that if Qiao Ge wanted, the doors of the military would be open to her.
Therefore, Qiao Ge could have reported normally, openly and frankly, and even stood confidently at the entrance of the General Administration.
If he or Hengzhi were to follow, it might seem as if Qiao Ge had a powerful backer, but the nature of the matter would actually change.
But he's not sure what his eldest grandson will do.
The next second, Qin Hengzhi nodded: "Okay."
Grandpa Qin immediately smiled and said, "Qiao Ge, your second uncle and the others want to take you out to eat roast duck. Hengzhi will pick you up after you finish reporting for duty."
Lu Qiaoge naturally agreed.
She then rode the new bicycle that Qin Hengzhi had bought for her long ago and quickly disappeared from Qin Hengzhi's sight.
After not seeing any sign of Lu Qiaoge, Qin Hengzhi and Old Master Qin walked into the courtyard together.
As they walked, Qin Hengzhi said, "Grandpa, I'll be returning to Jiangcheng in a week."
"The arrangements here are all in place."
"Yes, the handover has been completed smoothly."
The old man didn't ask what was being handed over, and said directly, "Go back and work hard. You don't need to worry about Qiao Ge. Beidu is also her home. Although... that unit is a bit complicated, anyone who wants to bully her will have to think twice."
Qin Hengzhi curled the corners of his mouth. He wanted to bully Qiao Ge, but whether he would agree or not, given Qiao Ge's abilities, could he really bully her?
But he nodded nonetheless.
Grandpa's concern was genuine, so he naturally had to go along with the old man's wishes.
Just then, a very pretty girl with short, ear-length hair ran towards them.
This girl is Jiang Lan, who once asked Lu Qiaoge to play ping-pong.
The Jiang family lived not far from the Qin family and had been neighbors and friends for many years. For a while, Mrs. Jiang and Grandma Qin stopped seeing each other because Grandma Qin had gone to Mrs. Jiang's place to vent her anger on behalf of Lu Qiaoge.
Mrs. Jiang wasn't very happy because her granddaughter had been hit on the forehead with a ball and embarrassed herself.
But since her granddaughter was in the wrong, Mrs. Jiang didn't dare to say a word.
However, not refuting it doesn't mean that we think Grandma Qin's behavior is good.
So I really don't talk to Grandma Qin.
But after all, they were longtime neighbors, and their spouses were also old comrades-in-arms. They had a life-or-death friendship, but they had also shared joys and sorrows and gone through thick and thin together. Over time, they resumed their friendship.
Lu Qiaoge returned last night.
After finishing our meal and tidying up, we went to bed early.
Before that, Mrs. Jiang knew that Lu Qiaoge had ranked first in the province and then entered Beidu University with excellent grades. To be honest, Mrs. Jiang admired her very much.
Qin Hengzhi is a capable man, and I never expected that his wife would be just as capable. It's truly enviable.
When Grandma Qin told her that Lu Qiaoge's identity was not just that of a student, but that she had now been officially transferred to the State Administration of Foreign Trade, Mrs. Jiang didn't know how to express her feelings.
All I can say to Grandma Qin is congratulations! Your granddaughter-in-law is amazing...
Last night at home, I couldn't help but think about these things.
Her granddaughter, Jiang Lan, also took the college entrance examination, but her results were only average.
Regardless of the circumstances, she was still attending university in Beidu. She had been having a blast these past few days, and when she returned, Old Mrs. Jiang told Jiang Lan about Lu Qiaoge.
"...Do you really think that getting into university means everything will be fine? You'll have to learn a lot of things in college, and if you don't study well, you won't graduate, and the government won't assign you a job. Do you think everyone is like Lu Qiaoge, having a job before even starting school..."
Jiang Lan and Lu Qiaoge had little contact.
Cao Lanzhu was partly responsible for this.
But in reality, her relationship with Cao Lanzhu was just so-so. And she hadn't seen Cao Lanzhu for a long time.
But I heard that because of her aunt's situation, none of the Cao family's children are allowed to participate in this exam.
I wouldn't say I was gloating, but thinking of Cao Lanzhu inevitably reminded me of Lu Qiaoge.
Jiang Lan said dismissively, "Isn't it normal to bring your work to school? The regulations now stipulate that employees with more than 5 years of service still get paid a monthly salary by their employers."
Mrs. Jiang pursed her lips: "You think this is an ordinary job? She was promoted to the State Administration of Foreign Trade through special procedures. I heard she's going to report for duty tomorrow."
This is quite unexpected.
Grandma Jiang added meaningfully to her granddaughter, "...Qin Hengzhi is already married. His wife is very outstanding, not only outstanding but also so beautiful...Someone like Lu Qiaoge, getting along well with her will be good for the future."
After what happened with the Cao family, Jiang Lan's thoughts are now very different from before.
Grandma was right.
That's why I came to find Lu Qiaoge so early in the morning.
When she saw Qin Hengzhi, her heart couldn't help but tremble.
There's no way around it; no matter what circle you're in, there's no one like Qin Hengzhi.
If you look for a partner according to Qin Hengzhi's standards, you'll never find one in your life.
So Jiang Lan gave up.
Every time I see the handsome and dashing Qin Hengzhi, especially today when he's wearing a crisp military uniform, he shines brightly.
His serious demeanor, in particular, adds an indescribable and unique charm to his personality.
That's something Zhou Zheng and his colleagues in the compound can't even compare to.
Jiang Lan clenched her hands tightly and said to Grandpa Qin, "Grandpa Qin, I heard that Lu Qiaoge came to study at Beidu University. She arrived yesterday. Is she home? I've come to visit her."
Grandpa Qin chuckled, "What a coincidence! My Qiao Ge went to report to the State Administration of Foreign Trade. She just left a short while ago. I wonder when she'll be back?"
Seeing Qin Hengzhi about to leave, Jiang Lan became anxious and said urgently, "Brother Hengzhi... um... Zhou Zheng and the others know you're back and said they want to get together in the next few days. When do you have time?"
Qin Hengzhi paused for a moment, but still patiently said to Jiang Lan, "It depends on Qiao Ge's work schedule."
Finally, he said, "I have something to attend to, so please excuse me."
After saying that, he turned and went into the Qin family's courtyard without looking back.
Old Master Qin glanced at Jiang Lan, who looked dejected, sighed inwardly, and slowly walked away with his hands behind his back.
Anyway, he and the little girl didn't have much to talk about.
Jiang Lan stood there, then turned and walked towards her own home.
She turned a corner halfway there and hurriedly ran to find Zhou Zheng, because she had lied earlier.
Zhou Zheng and the others hadn't even discussed inviting Qin Hengzhi and Qin Hengzhi to dinner yet; saying these things was just an excuse she made up earlier.
Jiang Lan ran quite fast and just happened to see Zhou Zheng, who was about to leave, at the gate of the Zhou family's house: "Qin Hengzhi and Lu Qiaoge are back. Qin Hengzhi will be staying at home for about a week. This is the first time they have come back together since they got married. We should invite them to a meal."
