Chapter 37 Unintentional intervention
"Okay, it's alright now, you... can you let go of me now?"

Even as a fellow woman, Su Ning felt embarrassed to have someone hug her so tightly around the waist in the street.

Her fair face had lost the composure she had displayed when she confronted the human traffickers; her ears had even turned a deep red.

"Thank you, thank you..."

Only then did Luo Shuangshuang dare to cry out loud, and tears streamed down her face like broken beads.

At the same time, he obediently released his hands from her waist and instead grabbed her arm, "I...can I..."

Knowing that she had just gone through such a dangerous experience, she was feeling insecure.

Furthermore, the collision between the two did not trigger any of their special abilities, which at least indicated that nothing bad was about to happen.

Relieved, Su Ning stopped forcing her and let her hold onto her entire arm, practically dragging her to the police station.

After cooperating with the two officers to take a statement and explaining what happened, it was already more than half an hour later.

"Su Ning, may I call you Ningning?"

Luo Shuangshuang twisted her fingers nervously, looking at her savior, who had a delicate face and elegant demeanor, with a slightly hoarse voice.

"You can also call me Youyou. Um... can we be friends?"

—A very, very good friend, the kind that lasts a lifetime!
Silently adding to her mind, Luo Shuangshuang was looking forward to this for the first time. It was always others chasing after her, hoping to become her friends.

This was the first time I had ever actively wanted to become good friends with someone, and it wasn't just because she had saved me.

Perhaps it was the inexplicable goodwill that arose at first sight.

"Nice to meet you, Grapefruit!"

"Me even more so!"

Looking at the long, slender hand that reached out, Luo Shuangshuang excitedly shook it back. "It's a pleasure to meet you. But, grapefruit?"

"To commemorate this moment."

Thinking of the name she made up back then, Xiyue, plus my own nickname Youyou...

Luo Shuangshuang couldn't help but chuckle and said, "It really is a grapefruit! Okay, then I declare this a unique nickname for you, Ning Baogai~"

What exactly is Ning Baogai?
Does it have the roof radical (宀) on the character "宁"?

Suning was immediately amused and exasperated by the unique nickname he received: "Having a friend like that would be great, it would bring so much more fun."

"Again!" "Again!"

"Mom, Dad!"

A man and a woman ran quickly toward the two of them, their faces filled with barely concealed fear and worry.

Only when his daughter was truly standing in front of him, completely intact, did Luo Fusen finally exhale the breath that had been stuck in his throat.

The sight of the mother and daughter embracing each other and crying uncontrollably brought tears to the eyes of this usually strong and upright man.

Wiping the corner of her eye, she then noticed the person standing silently to the side, preparing to leave.

Having learned the whole story, Luo Fusen immediately stepped forward. "Young comrade, you must be Su Ning, the student who saved my daughter, right?"

"Yes, Mom and Dad, she is the Ning... Ning who saved me."

"Thank you, Su Ning. If it weren't for you standing up for us back then, my family might have..."

Yan Xin felt terrified whenever she thought of that scene, and her gratitude towards Suning grew even stronger.

She's still just a young girl, yet she still chose to help in such a dangerous situation.

This not only saved Youyou, but also their entire family!

"Come on, let's go home with your uncle and aunt. Auntie will definitely treat you well today."

"Yes, yes, yes, please give us a chance to express our gratitude for your hospitality."

Luo Shuangshuang, whose eyes were red and swollen from crying after seeing her mother, was sobbing and hiccuping and couldn't say a complete sentence. She could only anxiously nod to her mother to agree with her parents' requests.

Only after Suning reluctantly agreed, unable to refuse, did the family of three happily take the person home.

……

Z Compound in the city.

Both are located on Nanmen Street, not far from the Su family's courtyard. One is adjacent to the Lishui Dam, while the other is nestled at the foot of Qingmen Mountain.

This is what it means to have an unexpected and unexpected success.

Su Ning had some guesses when registering at the entrance of the compound, but after learning more, she still didn't expect it to be so unexpected.

"Grapefruit, is Uncle Luo really the top official in the city?"

"Uh-huh."

To properly entertain their savior, the couple went to the kitchen to start preparing as soon as they got home, while Luo Shuangshuang led her into her bedroom to whisper to her.

After giving a brief introduction of her family, Luo Shuangshuang noticed that her expression was a little off.

There was neither the fear and anxiety of ordinary people, nor the restrained obsequiousness one might show towards someone they considered a classmate from a compound or school. It was a mixture of surprise and...

"Ning Baogai, do you need my dad's help with anything? Just tell me, and I'll definitely put in a good word for you!"

"Aren't you afraid I'll sell you off?"

"Do you think I'm really stupid? I don't believe it!"

Having grown up seeing all sorts of people approaching her, Luo Shuangshuang has developed a very keen sixth sense.

She can immediately detect those who harbor ill will, hostility, or ulterior motives towards her.

This is why, when the middle-aged woman initially sought her help, she refused without hesitation, prompting her to hesitate and instead choose to confront her directly.

Therefore, she naturally trusted Su Ning.

"Tell me, and I'll give you my assessment of whether it's feasible. Don't let my dad's easygoing and henpecked nature at home fool you; he's ruthless at work!"

"you…"

Is it really okay to talk about your own father like that?

Squeezing his palms, Su Ning could barely suppress the wildly upturned corners of his mouth. "Ahem, there is indeed something."

Upon hearing that the idea was to transfer her brother from the Yongxian Transportation Team to work at the same factory as her, Luo Shuangshuang immediately relaxed.

This kind of transfer isn't as troublesome as finding a good job; it's just a small matter of informing both sides. Her dad will definitely have no problem with it!
"Grapefruit, thank you."

"Hey, this is nothing compared to what I've done for you..."

"Stop, stop, I don't want to hear any more of your alternative declarations of love for me."

Thinking back to how Luo Shuangshuang seemed to have returned to her safe zone after entering the house, he immediately reverted to his true nature.

He then launched into a torrent of gratitude, rambling on and on about how much he liked her.

Those repeated expressions of affection...

The two of them rubbed the goosebumps on their arms in perfect unison, and were simultaneously amused by each other's expressions and actions, bursting into laughter.

You could hear the noise from upstairs even from the kitchen, which shows how loudly the two girls were laughing and playing.

Luo Fusen and Yan Xin exchanged a smile and continued their conversation while busy with their own work.

"very nice!"

"Yes, that girl is acting crazy. Don't scare Xiao Ning."

"It's all because you two spoiled him!"

Luo Fusen smiled good-naturedly and didn't argue as usual. No matter how much his daughter doted on him, he still felt it wasn't enough.

"Old Luo, how do you think we should thank Xiao Ning?"

Just looking at the little girl's clothes, that outfit alone would cost several tens of yuan, not to mention the hair clips she wore.

Whether it's genuine or fake, how could Yan Xin, who also comes from a prestigious family, not tell the difference? She certainly doesn't lack money or anything like that.

"Xiao Ning looks to be about the same age as Youyou. I wonder if she's already working or has been admitted to university?"

"We'll find out when we ask."

Handing the freshly picked vegetables to his partner, Luo Fusen was also considering his options, thinking, "The job I found for Youyou has already been arranged, if it's possible..."

It's really nice that the two girls can be together.

……

Su Family Courtyard on South Gate First Street.

Zhang Ze and Mao Qianjin, who were quick and efficient at their work, had no idea that in the short time it took to repair and clean, Su Ning had done something thrilling and exciting that would make the whole city go by.

In addition to weeding the yard, Zhang Ze also fumigated the entire yard, inside and out. He even bought a lot of things to decorate it, based on Su Ning's excited mutterings when he saw the yard.

Only after they were satisfied with tidying up the small courtyard did the two move on to the larger courtyard.

"Brother Ze, why don't you go to the Red Flag Commune and I'll stay here?"

"Haha, what's wrong? Regretting it now?"

Zhang Ze chuckled and kicked him, then closed the courtyard gate. "Didn't you say you just liked the fields in the village because they felt close to you?"

“I have no problem earning work points in the fields, but Ningning said she wanted to be one of the eight high-ranking officials. I’m afraid I’ll mess it up!”

Whether it was in BD, being transferred to the Fu family, or returning to his original unit after retirement, with Zhang Ze around, he didn't need to worry about anything; he just needed to follow orders.

If I really go there and he's gone, all I'll have is my own brain...

Mao Qianjin felt increasingly uneasy about it. "Brother Ze, you should go. You're so smart and quick-witted, you'll definitely do a better job than me!"

"Stop giving me that crap! How come you can't do it right? How did you manage to control those rookies back then?"

"Stop nagging me and acting like a coward again. If you keep spouting such cowardly nonsense, I'll beat you up!"

It's finally successfully launched! Thank you so much to all the lovely people who have supported me these past few days! Sending you lots of love~ I'll keep working hard! *bows* Thank you so much~
