Chapter 87 Touched
Ji Sisi quickly became worried again. If the organization found out that Qi Yan was being so generous, what would happen...?

“You don’t need to worry. The organization is very clear about our family’s assets. In the turbulent years before, our family donated half of our assets to survive. I only dared to give away the car two years after the storm had passed.”

The phrase "donated half of her assets" kept repeating in Ji Sisi's mind.

Seeing that Ji Sisi was still in a daze, Qi Yan chuckled and reminded her, "There's more inside, take a look."

Ji Sisi put down the gift box and took out a maroon suit skirt wedding dress from the bag. The top was a slightly fitted women's suit jacket, with a thin black leather belt around the waist to cinch it in.

The hem of the skirt has a delicate embroidery trim.

There was still a small bag of red hair accessories and pearl hair accessories left in the bag.

Even the shoes were matched; a pair of red patent leather low-heeled shoes came into view.

At this moment, Ji Sisi felt the reality of the wedding, and she stared blankly at the wedding dress in her hands.

Logically speaking, since she and Qi Yan had already registered their marriage, they didn't need to have a wedding ceremony. However, he not only insisted on having one, but also did so many things behind the scenes.

As Ji Sisi gazed at the scene, her eyes stung, and she felt an urge to cry.

"What's wrong? Don't you like it?" Qi Yan noticed that her expression was off and hurriedly got up to go to Ji Sisi's side.

Ji Sisi shook her head, threw the wedding dress in her hand onto the sofa, and hugged Qi Yan tightly.

"No, I'm just so touched. I never expected you to do so much for me."

Qi Yan's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, settled down. He placed his large hand on the back of her head and chuckled softly, "You are my lover, this is all I should do. I just want to give you the best of everything."

Ji Sisi buried her head in his chest like a little quail, her voice muffled.

"Qi Yan, you are so kind."

Just when things were getting emotional, Ji Sisi suddenly pulled away from his embrace. "By the way, Ji Nian came to talk to me today and said a bunch of nonsensical things."

Qi Yan felt a sudden emptiness in his arms, and he reached out and pulled the person back in dissatisfaction.

He looked down at her, so close that he could clearly see the fine hairs on her face.

"Director Fu talked to me about this. For safety reasons, Sisi, you may need to send Little Grey home as soon as possible."

Their eyes met in the air, and Ji Sisi nodded. "Okay, I understand."

Mentioning this, Ji Sisi felt a pang of reluctance. Her gaze fell upon Little Grey, who was sleeping by the door, bathed in moonlight.

time flies.

The next morning, as soon as Ji Sisi arrived at the sixth team, the car sent by the agricultural supplies office to pick her up arrived.

Chen Chen got out of the car, walked around to the other end and opened the car door for her. "Comrade Ji, get in the car."

"Wasn't it supposed to be the day after tomorrow? Why is it today?"

Despite her doubts, Ji Sisi got into the car. "Your director agreed so quickly?"

"When I got back yesterday, my master blocked the director's way until the end of the workday before he finally got his approval. We'll have to wait until you go to the station and meet the director to find out the specifics. So hold on tight."

Ji Sisi wasn't surprised that Director Wu would do such a thing.

That's perfect, she thought, since she'd take advantage of the day to go to the county town and talk to Zhang Zhizhi and Song Yiping, asking if they wanted to come to the wedding banquet.

The Agricultural Supplies Office is a bit smaller than the Agricultural Machinery Bureau, but they are roughly the same size.

Good morning, Professor Chen.

"morning."

The corridor suddenly became crowded with people, all greeting Chen Chen and eager to see who this person who proposed the greenhouse plan really was.

After Chen Chen left, everyone's attention turned to Xiao Qing.

"Xiao Qing, is this Ji Sisi? She's so pretty! No wonder Professor Chen personally drove to the countryside to pick her up, and Director Wu even made an exception for her, allowing her to see the director right away..."

Xiao Qing gave a curt "Mmm" and said, "I have something to do, I'm going to get back to work."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and went back to the lab.

The man who asked the question looked puzzled and quickly glanced at the others, "Did she eat gunpowder this early in the morning?"

An older woman responded with a laugh. "You men are so clueless! Didn't you realize Xiao Qing was jealous? We all know how she likes Professor Chen."

The man didn't understand, and scratched the back of his head. "But weren't Professor Chen and Director Wu doing it all for the experiment?"

The older sister smiled and didn't say anything more. "Alright, go ahead and get busy."

Some things are better left unsaid. Based on her two years of experience as a matchmaker, she knew that Chen Chen's intentions were definitely not pure.

Ji Sisi was taken to a small conference room.

Director Zhao and Director Wu had been waiting for a long time, and the atmosphere between them was somewhat subtle.

One second he was turning his back to the other person, the next he was all smiles as he introduced himself to both of them.

Ji Sisi thought today was just to fix what she had overlooked last time, but after discussing the positions, when it came to the final step of obtaining the letter of understanding, Director Wu played tricks again and asked her to take people to look at the basic materials first.

Ji Sisi had little experience with greenhouses, so she could only rely on her memories from her previous life to roughly select several types of steel as the frame.

"Professor Chen, please wait for me for a moment. I need to go to the Agricultural Machinery Bureau and the Supply and Marketing Cooperative first, and I'll be back later."

Seeing that things were almost settled, Ji Sisi prepared to slip away. She was worried that if she didn't inform them soon, she would have made a wasted trip.

"Okay, do you want me to drive you there?"

Ji Sisi had already walked some distance away. "No need, I'll be back soon."

She needs the car, but not now.

Before she left, she asked Chen Chen if the agricultural supplies office was very close to the supply and marketing cooperative where Zhang Zhizhi worked; it was only a ten-minute walk away.

Supply and marketing cooperative.

"Zhizhi!"

Ji Sisi arrived just as Zhang Zhizhi was packing up her stall, and she walked towards her breathlessly.

These days, it's really troublesome not having a means of transportation.

"Sisi? What brings you here? Didn't you say you'd come once a month?"

Zhang Zhizhi was very happy to see Ji Sisi. She took off her apron and quickened her pace, saying, "Wait for me a moment, I'll be done in a minute."

"I'm not in a hurry, take your time, you can rest for a bit."

Ji Sisi spotted a small stool next to her, grabbed it, and sat down, finally able to catch her breath.

Before she could even sit down properly, Zhang Zhizhi had already tidied up and walked towards her, saying, "I'm ready."

“So fast…”

Zhang Zhizhi nodded in agreement, "Are you going to town to buy things again? Why are you so late? I didn't know you were coming, so I didn't save any meat for you. I'm sorry, Sisi."

"I'm not buying anything. I came to the city to invite you to my wedding banquet. I was wondering if you'd be free?"

"Of course there will be, when?"

Zhang Zhizhi knew that Ji Sisi was married, and her recent trips to the city, carrying large and small bags of purchases, were all preparations for the wedding banquet.

She just didn't expect to be invited.

"Saturday."

Zhang Zhizhi silently calculated the date. She also had to go to work that day, but she could discuss switching with someone.

"Okay, what's the name of your place? I'll take the early bus there."

Ji Sisi had already made plans regarding the car.

"Don't worry about that for now. If you're free later, could you come with me to the Agricultural Machinery Bureau again?"

When Zhang Zhizhi saw that Ji Sisi was going to the Agricultural Machinery Bureau, she immediately thought of Song Yiping.

"Are you looking for Sister Song? She's not at work today and is resting at home. She came to buy meat from me this morning. If you're looking for her, I can take you to her house."
