Chapter 358 The Wooden Head Blooms
Two weeks later, one afternoon, the sky was clear and the air was bright.
The Radio and Television Building is very busy after the New Year.
Fan Xiaolin has just finished a special program on the difficulties in new coal mines.
The work that she had been busy with for so long was finally finished. She hadn't even had a good New Year, so she planned to take a vacation.
The director came over and said, "Hyolin, we want to do an interview with your best friend, Miss Wen. Can you arrange it? After all, you are close friends, so it will be convenient to arrange it."
Since the arrest of Zhao Zhengrong, Xu Guangcai and others, the old case of Xinmei Group has finally returned to the public eye. The relevant departments have ordered a thorough investigation of the case, especially various righteous people like reporter Wanfeng and Wen Zhengmao and his wife who died while investigating the case.
Because Fan Xiaolin participated in the investigation personally, her first-hand resources made her a hot commodity in the station again. Moreover, since the director knew that her best friend was the first lady of the Fu Group, his attitude towards her became better than before.
"My best friend doesn't seem to like being interviewed," Fan Xiaolin said, feeling somewhat embarrassed. "Besides, she's recently gone on a business trip. I'll ask her about it, but don't get your hopes up too much."
The director agreed repeatedly, and then couldn't help but gossip quietly, "By the way, your best friend and that young master from the Fu family, are they together now?"
"How would I know that?" Fan Xiaolin shook her head. "Director, I'm an investigative reporter, not a relationship expert. If you're curious, you can ask around."
After saying that, she ignored the director's curious expression, left him, and went off work.
After leaving the Radio and Television Building, Chen Zhuo was waiting for her on the roadside.
"Here you go," he handed over a large bag of sausages, "My mom asked me to bring this to you. I told her you didn't like salty food, and she said hers is different from others."
Chen Zhuocai was discharged from the hospital not long ago. He looked pale and thin, but in good spirits.
During this period, Fan Xiaolin's entire family took turns bringing him food and drinks and asking about his well-being.
At first he was not very adaptable, but Fan Xiaolin seemed to have taken advantage of the fact that he was lying in bed unable to move or resist, and force-fed him until he was finally discharged safely.
"I'm sure I'll love what our mom makes," Fan Xiaolin happily accepted. "I'll take a picture of her after I finish eating."
Hearing her calling "Mom" repeatedly, Chen Zhuo blushed again.
However, during this time lying in the hospital, he had been annoyed by Fan Xiaolin's teasing. She had been busy doing interviews these past two days, and he hadn't heard her sharp words criticizing him, which made him quite anxious.
So as soon as I finished my work at noon, I drove directly from my hometown in Jinghai to see her.
"Why are you blushing again?" Fan Xiaolin hit him. "You didn't come to me just to give me sausages, did you?"
Chen Zhuo nodded blankly, "Oh, and I'll treat you to a meal and then take you home."
"Why are you treating me to a meal?" Fan Xiaolin asked.
"Because..." Chen Zhuo's first reaction was to say "thank you for taking care of me for so long, but he felt that Fan Xiaolin would definitely be angry if he said that, so he thought again and again and said, "Because I miss you, I want to hear you talk, I want to see you."
Fan Xiaolin looked at Chen Zhuo in shock and was speechless for nearly half a minute.
Inner thoughts: Oh my god, am I dreaming?! My wooden head is blooming!
"What's wrong?" Chen Zhuo looked at Fan Xiaolin with wide eyes, "Are you unhappy?"
Fan Xiaolin burst out laughing.
"How can I not be happy? I'm so happy, I'm almost flying with joy!" She threw herself on Chen Zhuo's shoulders without any hesitation. "If I remember correctly, this is the first time you've said something cheesy to me in all the time I've been pursuing you!!!"
The two were about the same height, and Chen Zhuo was knocked back several steps by the impact of her pounce. He tried hard to steady his body and accepted her hug.
Fan Xiaolin has always been good at expressing her feelings and is not shy about showing her love for others. Therefore, her voice and her hugs are full of warm and infectious power, which is also what Chen Zhuo remembers the most.
"No, wasn't it me who was chasing you?" Chen Zhuo was hugged by her in front of everyone. Although he was happy, his face couldn't help but turn redder. "I always thought it was me who was chasing you..."
"Don't worry about first come first served," Fan Xiaolin readily let go of him. "When are you coming home with me? My mom wants you to have dinner at our house."
Chen Zhuo thought about it for a moment, and finally nodded seriously, "I'll listen to you. I'm available anytime."
As they talked, they got into the car and discussed where to go for dinner.
At this moment, Fan Xiaolin's cell phone rang.
Wen Zhixia: [Baby, have you had dinner yet? I just got off the plane. I didn’t eat dinner together, did I?]
"My baby's back," Fan Xiaolin showed Chen Zhuo a WeChat message. "How about bringing her along for dinner? My station director asked me to arrange an interview with her. I need to talk to her and see if she's willing."
Chen Zhuo immediately started the car and drove directly to the airport. "I'll do as you say."
This is Jincheng Chengbei Airport.
At the baggage claim area, Wen Zhixia was having a video call with Fu Ruoshi.
Fu Ruoshi ran to New York's Central Park early in the morning to take pictures of the snow scene for Wen Zhixia.
"Hey, move aside. Don't look at the little squirrel in front of me." Wen Zhixia held up her phone and looked at the increasingly busy street behind Fu Ruoshi. "What is that building that looks like a potato chip?"
Fu Ruoshi glanced behind him and said, "That's called Steinway. It was built after World War I. When you come, I'll take you in to see it."
Wen Zhixia had just gotten her visa a few days ago, but she was busy with work recently and had put the matter behind her.
"Let's talk about it later. I can't decide on a time right now," Wen Zhixia said. "I'll make arrangements after I'm done with this busy period."
"What arrangements? I'll call your dean and give you a holiday." Fu Ruoshi hadn't held her in his arms for ten days and was extremely anxious. "I'll be back next week to take over Fu's. I won't have that much time in the United States anymore."
Yes, he will soon succeed the Fu family.
Wen Zhixia then remembered.
After Fu Keming's funeral, Fu Ruoshi returned to the United States to handle Zhuo Rui's work.
After all, for Fu, Zhuo Rui is his personal career that he values more. Fu is responsibility, and Zhuo Rui is passion.
Since I can't give up, I can only get tired.
"Then you go ahead and get some work done. Get some rest and don't overwork yourself." Wen Zhixia reminded him, "I'm going to get my luggage. I'll contact you later."
Fu Ruoshi was still not satisfied. "Please stay with me for a while. I'm under a lot of pressure right now. I can't sleep at night when I think about the mess that Fu's company is in. Oh, I don't want to do this. I really don't want to do this."
Wen Zhixia looked at him with a smile, "So?"
"So I have to hold you while sleeping." Fu Ruoshi said with a wicked smile, "When I hold you, I want to do anything."
Wen Zhixia pretended not to hear his dirty talk, "I really won't tell you anymore, Xiaolin is looking for me."
After saying that, she hung up the video and answered Fan Xiaolin's call.
"Hey, Bao, I got my luggage. Let's meet in front of Starbucks."
