Chapter 127 Falling in Love with a Married Woman

The two chatted for a few more minutes, then Ji Sisi hung up the phone and called the agricultural supplies office.

They were worried that something might happen to the greenhouse at the agricultural supply depot, and if they couldn't find her, they would just have to wait and waste their time.

Ji Sisi interrupted and called the agricultural supplies institute again to inform them.

After the call was connected, it was Director Wu who answered.

"Director Wu, this is Sisi."

Director Wu hummed in agreement. "What's the purpose of this sudden call?"

"I'll be leaving Luxian for a while, and I don't know when I'll be back. If there's an emergency..."

Ji Sisi gave Director Wu the phone number of Aunt Liu's workplace, so that he could contact her through that number in case of emergency.

Unbeknownst to her, Director Wu was currently holding a meeting with the people in the laboratory. A dozen or so people were in the office, all staring at Director Wu and quietly listening to their conversation.

Director Wu paid no attention to the others, treating the dozen or so people as if they were invisible.

"May I ask what happened that made you take so long to get back?"

Judging from her tone, it sounded like she was going to be gone for several months.
For several months, the greenhouse project had been progressing rapidly, and he was worried that the results would not be satisfactory without Ji Sisi keeping an eye on it.

After all, this plan was proposed by this girl. She seems clever, and if any problems arise, she can get Chen Chen to bring the person up to handle the situation.

But if we go back to Jianghai, who will take care of the greenhouse?

Ji Sisi thought it was just Director Wu alone, so to save time, she simply used the excuse of replying to Director Yan to brush it off.

“My older sister sued me, so I’m going back to file a lawsuit.”

When Director Wu, who was over fifty years old, heard about the lawsuit, he was stunned for a moment, and gasps of cold air echoed throughout the room.

"If there's nothing else, I'll hang up. Phone calls are expensive." Ji Sisi prepared to end the call.

Although it was paid for by the company, she still remembered how the master and apprentice had taken advantage of her yesterday.

"Does your commune expect you to pay for phone calls?" Director Wu was about to question when Ji Sisi hung up.

Director Wu looked at the phone. "Hey, this girl, she hung up so quickly?"

A dozen students saw their usually stern teacher being hung up on, and the teacher was furious.

For some reason, I feel like the strict teacher's persona is crumbling.

Chen Chen, who was closest to Director Wu, naturally heard the whole thing. He lowered his eyes and stared blankly at the blank space in the notebook, lost in thought.

After the meeting ended, Chen Chen didn't leave; he stayed until the very end.

"What are you doing standing there like this, acting as my doorman?" Director Wu asked Chen Chen.

After careful consideration, Chen Chen decided to help Ji Sisi. "Master, I have a classmate who also became a lawyer in college. Maybe he can help Ji Sisi."

"I want to ask him for help. It just so happens that he works in Jiangdong, which isn't far from Jianghai..."

"If you have such resources, why didn't you say so earlier? You should contact someone more quickly."

After receiving the consent, Chen Chen dialed the phone number of Huaihua Commune.

After the call was connected, a different person answered the receiver.

"Comrade Ji has already left the commune, but if there's anything you need, I can pass on the message. If it's something particularly important, our commune's liaison officer will notify you."

Upon hearing that Ji Sisi had left, Chen Chen looked dejected.

"Okay, if she goes to the commune, please tell her that I have a friend who is also a lawyer. If she needs anything, please call me. I am Chen Chen from the Agricultural Supplies Office."

"Okay, Comrade Chen, is there anything else?"

"That's all, thank you for your help."

After speaking, the phone call ended.

Chen Chen's eyes were downcast, a little regretful that he hadn't called sooner.

Director Wu was also keeping a close eye on things, and suddenly, he noticed that Chen Chen was acting strangely. He certainly agreed with Chen Chen finding a lawyer for Ji Sisi, hoping that Ji Sisi could resolve the matter as soon as possible and return home.

However, the more he thought about it, the more something seemed off. He had never seen Chen Chen so attentive to any woman before. Could it be that his apprentice had made a mistake and fallen for a married woman?

How could Chen Chen, with such a quick mind, have done this?
"Go to work after you're done. You look so lost and disoriented, people would think you've been sued."

Chen Chen suddenly came to his senses and put down the phone. "I'm worried that the greenhouse project won't proceed as scheduled."

"I hope so." Director Wu said without looking up.

After finishing her meal, Ji Sisi waited for Qi Yan to return.

When he still hadn't returned by 10 o'clock, Ji Sisi understood his work situation. Since he wasn't coming back, she decided to go find him.

Ji Sisi walked alone in the darkness, carrying a flashlight.

The guards at the gatehouse have changed shifts; Comrade Xiao Mao is on duty now.

"Sister-in-law Ji, is it urgent that you've come so late?"

Usually, if someone comes this late, it's either because a child at home is sick or there's an emergency. When Xiao Mao saw Ji Sisi arrive, he went up to her and asked her what was wrong.

"Yes, I have something urgent to tell Qi Yan."

This is a serious matter, and Ji Sisi still wants to talk to Qi Yan face to face.

"Okay, I'll go upstairs and call Director Qi first. Sister-in-law, please go in and sit down to wait. It's cold outside. You can also keep an eye on things for me."

The temperature difference between day and night is large here. You can wear short sleeves during the day, but you need to put on a jacket at night.

"Okay, you go."

Ji Sisi has been coming to the guardhouse frequently lately and has become completely familiar with it.

She watched Xiao Mao leave, gazing in the direction he disappeared. A few lights were still on in the office building; Qi Yan's light must have been one of them.

While he was thinking, Xiao Mao Jiu had already brought the person out.

Qi Yan had just finished work and looked up to find it was already 11 p.m. Just as he was about to turn off the lights and go back to his dorm to rest, Xiao Mao knocked on the office door and said that Sisi had come to see him.

He didn't dare delay and ran all the way out.

Qi Yan's breathing was erratic, his eyes filled with anxiety, "Why are you so late?"

"I want to talk to you about something, but I'm afraid I won't have time tomorrow." Ji Sisi stood up to give Xiao Mao his seat. "Are you done with work?"

"Xiao Mao arrived right after we finished."

Seeing Sisi's calm expression, Qi Yan felt inexplicably uneasy. The more she acted like this, the more he felt that something big was about to happen, and a bad premonition arose in his heart.

“Then let’s go home and talk as we walk.”

Ji Sisi took Qi Yan's hand and the two held hands tightly as they walked side by side toward home.

After walking a distance, Qi Yan couldn't help but ask again.

"Did something happen?"

Ji Sisi nodded and recounted what had happened today: Aunt Liu, the suspected target, and Shen Yiping booking tickets.

She knew that saying it aloud would make the already tense mother-son relationship even more strained, but Ji Sisi didn't care.

If Shen Wanqing really did it, and she didn't even consider Qi Yan's feelings, then Ji Sisi has even less reason to care about her.

It's not that her chances are too small; after all, Shen Wanqing is capable of doing anything for Yan Yan.

"It's her, that's just her way of doing things."

In the pitch-black night, Qi Yan held a flashlight in one hand and held Ji Sisi's hand in the other.

When he heard her speak, he felt a sense of familiarity with her domineering style, except for his mother.

In order to find Yan Yan, she was willing to do anything to help someone who had hurt her daughter-in-law, even to help that person put her daughter-in-law in jail.

With such an extreme personality, Qi Yan couldn't think of anyone else besides his mother.

I had something to do today, so I'm late~
