Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path

Chapter 388: Chapter 388: Tragic

”Here... and here too, these parts aren’t translated correctly.” Tang Wei rubbed his nose and said, ”But the general meaning is correct.”

”I told you Lingling is amazing.” Liu Zhi, seeing Tang Wei’s awkward expression, was pleased and went back to work with a grin, ”Her handwriting is good, and her English is so awesome. No wonder our director wanted her so badly.”

Tang Wei didn’t say anything and returned to his post with a cold face.

”Can’t you just say a little less?” Zhang Shiqiang, who was a few years older than Liu Zhi, said, ”You’re just going to make him more upset with Lingling.”

”Tch, isn’t it just that his English is better than ours? What’s the big deal?” Liu Zhi said, ”Now Lingling’s English is also very good, so we don’t have to look at his attitude anymore.”

Speaking of which, Liu Zhi wasn’t really a petty person, but he just couldn’t stand Tang Wei’s always superior demeanor.

Zhang Shiqiang shook his head, ”But from now on, if we have any questions, we can ask Lingling.”

Gu Lingling, however, didn’t expect this incident to stir up anyone’s feelings.

”What should we do?” Zhou Baoceng said, somewhat troubled.

Who would’ve thought the machine still wasn’t repaired by afternoon, and it looked like they would need to work overtime tonight. But the problem was, the dormitory allocated by the factory only had three rooms, with no extra space.

No one expected a female colleague to join.

And the car that brought them here this afternoon had already gone back.

”Women are just trouble.” Tang Wei muttered under his breath, and Zhou Qing nudged him.

”How about I have someone take you home?” He Jijun looked at the weather outside, which seemed like it was about to rain, and said with a frown.

”No need, Director,” Gu Lingling said, ”I can go back on my own; my home is quite near here. I’ll come over earlier tomorrow morning.”

She could stay in Nanshui Village and come back in the morning, ”But Director Zhou, you might need to send someone to pick me up.”

”I’ll take you,” Zhang Shiqiang said.

”You guys are busy; I really don’t need it.” She left, and they still had to stay to work overtime.

”This child,” He Jijun chuckled and shook his head, ”Director Zhou, could you please assign someone to go along with her and see her off?”

”Okay, Xiao Li, hurry up and follow her, make sure to get Little Gu home safely,” Director Zhou said with a smile.

This arrangement was the best possible solution.

Tang Wei looked with a complex expression at Gu Lingling, who had already run off. She seemed different from what he had imagined.

But it’s only been a day; there’s plenty of time ahead. Tang Wei thought to himself.

Gu Lingling ran out of the factory and was suddenly stunned. Where was this place? She couldn’t even tell east from west. Looking back, she should have clarified the direction a moment ago.

Following the memory of the direction from which she came by car, Gu Lingling ran toward another path.

Before leaving, she had someone pass a message to Zhao Jingmiao to tell Grandma Yao not to worry when she got home.

But she didn’t want to get soaked in the rain either.

Looking back, she should have brought the umbrella Grandma had given her.

Just as she thought this, raindrops began to fall.

It was so unfortunate—not a drizzle but large raindrops plopping down.

It seemed there was no escaping today’s rain.

Gu Lingling sighed internally.

A military vehicle passed by her and suddenly made an abrupt stop, startling Gu Lingling.

Was it a patrol vehicle?

Hopefully, they wouldn’t mistake her for a bad person and arrest her?

”What are you doing here?” Yang Yunhai’s voice came over.
