Chapter 99: I've already bought tonight's movie tickets

~7 min read 1,398 words

Old Hu pondered for a moment and said: "From what I heard from Factory Manager Hao, Qin Hengzhi should be in agreement."

Huang Juan listened as he described the scene that he, the factory manager, and the secretary had seen in the factory manager's office.

She waved her hand: "Qiao Ge went to order a wheelchair for Zhang Quan, and the two of them just happened to run into each other. That's nothing. To be safe, it's better to confirm the other side first, and then confirm this side."

Since Huang Juan insisted, Old Hu had no objections.

He thought about it and was just about to call the factory manager when the phone on the desk rang.

This kind of old-fashioned phone had a very loud ring, giving both of them a big fright.

Old Hu hurriedly picked up the phone, not expecting it to be Factory Manager Hao.

A booming voice came from the other side: "Old Hu, have you talked to Comrade Xiao Lu? How is it? Does she agree?"

Old Hu: "... I've thought about it repeatedly, and I still want to confirm Representative Qin's opinion first. I was just about to call you..."

Factory Manager Hao was silent for a moment and said: "You actually haven't said anything yet? I've already bought tonight's movie tickets."

Old Hu:...

Your speed is too fast.

"Have you asked for Representative Qin's opinion?"

Factory Manager Hao on the other side immediately understood Old Hu's meaning. He laughed in anger: "Am I such an unreliable person? I thought it was about right, so I said we should act separately. Of course Representative Qin agrees to meet. Alright, go find Xiao Lu now. Hmm, be a bit low-key, don't let others know."

Thus, Huang Juan hurried to find Lu Qiaoge without stopping.

This time, she brought her to the shade behind the neighborhood office. After all, it's not very good to always be closing the door in the office to talk.

Huang Juan didn't beat around the bush and said straight out that the factory manager and secretary were playing matchmaker, asking her to bridge the gap with Director Hu to introduce the military representative stationed at the factory, the most handsome man in the military factory, to her.

Lu Qiaoge really didn't expect this.

She was shocked at the time, and after a little thought, she understood why Huang Juan had stopped mid-sentence just now.

It was actually introducing a blind date for her?

Remembering Qin Hengzhi's performance on Saturday, Lu Qiaoge blinked her eyes. Should she be reserved and say she'll consider it, or?

Before her next thought could emerge, Huang Juan immediately said: "If it's okay, the two of you can go watch a movie tonight. It seems the movie tickets have already been bought."

Today is Monday, can you go on a blind date to watch a movie?

Lu Qiaoge: "Was this arranged by you, or arranged by Representative Qin?"

Huang Juan took it for granted: "The organization introduces, of course, we arrange it."

Lu Qiaoge looked at Huang Juan.

Huang Juan looked at Lu Qiaoge with burning eyes: "As far as I know, you are the first girl Representative Qin has agreed to meet."

"Qiao Ge, go watch a movie together tonight. This decision isn't hasty. Besides, the two of you have known each other for a long time. Representative Qin hasn't just saved you, he's also been to your house. I don't need to tell you how good an impression your father has of Representative Qin. And someone who can become a military representative stationed at a factory doesn't need to be investigated; you should know that his ideological character and work ability are both top-notch. This has nothing to do with his family background. You can leave work early now, prepare, and don't be late at the movie theater entrance at 6:30 tonight!"

Lu Qiaoge didn't get to say a few words the whole time.

She said to Huang Juan: "Aunt Huang, you haven't asked if I agree yet?"

Huang Juan laughed; this is the real Lu Qiaoge.

"Okay, I represent the organization and solemnly say to you: after multiple investigations, the organization has decided to introduce the military representative stationed at the factory, Qin Hengzhi, to you. Do you agree?"

Lu Qiaoge also smiled: "I can meet him."

Huang Juan couldn't help but reach out and pinch the little girl's white and rosy cheek. This beauty, it's a pity she doesn't have a son, otherwise, she would have had to make her her daughter-in-law.

She said: "Go home. This is just a formal meeting. Actually, you're all acquaintances, so it won't be awkward. If it works, you can date; if not, you're still revolutionary comrades. Don't have any psychological pressure."

Lu Qiaoge suddenly remembered: "I still have work that I haven't reported to you."

Huang Juan: "It's about the neighborhood food factory, right? Director Hu went to the factory's comprehensive office in person at noon and didn't delay at all. It's indeed not difficult. It was approved on the spot, and he also read your business plan without raising any objections. There's just one point: self-financing, not a penny of start-up capital will be given."

Lu Qiaoge had expected this. She straightforwardly reported on her trip to the food section today, and then said to Huang Juan: "I'm going to night school now to tell everyone so they can be mentally prepared, but the conditions for building the factory are too difficult; it's practically starting from nothing. Aunt Huang, the neighborhood office should support us with materials at least."

Huang Juan said to her: "Okay, I'll go find Director Hu now."

Hmm, dating is important, but work is also important.

Lu Qiaoge rode her bicycle to night school.

Huang Juan returned to her normal expression to find Old Hu and nodded at him with a smile.

Old Hu breathed a sigh of relief. The call was made, and Factory Manager Hao on the other side laughed loudly, then transferred the call to the Military Representative Office.

Meanwhile, Qin Hengzhi was sitting in front of his desk. Although he looked the same as usual, he couldn't help but look at the old-fashioned black telephone.

There was no call this morning, and he also saw Master Lu in the workshop, who treated him the same as usual. This shows: the Lu family, including Lu Qiaoge, didn't know about the organization introducing them to each other.

When the factory manager and secretary saw him, they just chuckled, and their eyes were a bit evasive.

Hmm, it's not that Lu Qiaoge didn't agree, it's that it wasn't mentioned to Lu Qiaoge at all!

He has enough patience.

He is not a casual person. He wants to seriously get to know Lu Qiaoge, so he deliberately went to the scrap workshop with her on Saturday and deliberately passed by the factory manager's office.

As for whether he could be seen, it actually wasn't that important.

What's important is that he needs a sufficiently weighty introducer.

This is of great benefit to Lu Qiaoge.

Since he feels she is a girl he can get to know further, he needs to treat it seriously.

As for whether Lu Qiaoge agrees?

Qin Hengzhi curled his lips. Still the same sentence, he has enough patience.

Representative Qin, who felt he had plenty of patience, stared at the phone and finally waited for Factory Manager Hao's call.

His fingers gripping the receiver tightened involuntarily. He heard Factory Manager Hao's booming voice on the other side: "Hengzhi, Comrade Xiao Lu agrees to meet. 6:30 tonight, at the movie theater entrance. Don't be late. First impressions are very important... Uh, I mean the first impression of introducing you two to date. Hahaha, the movie tickets have been sent to you."

Qin Hengzhi didn't even know he had quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

He thanked him seriously: "Thank you, Factory Manager Hao!"

Factory Manager Hao: "Xiao Lu is a very excellent female comrade. Get along well, don't be cold. Even if it doesn't work out, don't hurt the harmony."

Qin Hengzhi:...

Is he that unfeeling?

Meanwhile, Old Lu was also informed of this matter by Secretary He, who had come specifically.

He was shocked instantly.

My god, Representative Qin is going to date the second daughter?

How can he not believe it?
