Qin Huai also stood up and clinked glasses with Mao Jiangchao: "Okay, I received your thanks, and I won't mention it from now on. We will still be good comrades and good friends in the future!"

Qin Huai drank a glass of beer happily. A hint of disappointment flashed in Mao Jiangchao's eyes. Qin Huai's words shattered the hope in his heart a little more.

He took a breath and drank it all in one gulp. He looked at Qin Huai for a long time, as if he was gathering up the courage to say something. Qin Huai picked up a piece of fish for Tang Zheng with chopsticks and said, "You're staring at this. I'll pick out the bones for you. Have a taste."

Looking at the fish in the bowl, Tang Zheng felt mixed emotions.

Qin Huai likes Xiao Beiqi and is her love rival.

If Qin Huai treated her as a love rival like Wang Yingying or Bai Fan and insulted her, she would still have reason to fight back.

But Qin Huai really treated her well.

"Thank you." Tang Zheng buried his head in his food, trying his best to act as if he was not paying attention.

Mao Jiangchao's words, which he had just managed to organize, were interrupted by Qin Huai. He didn't know how to start again for a moment and could only sit down and eat in silence.

"Why is Xiao Beiqi missing?" Mao Jiangchao suddenly remembered this.

Without waiting for Tang Zheng to speak, Qin Huai said, "He has returned to Beijing. I heard he is quite busy."

Mao Jiangchao took one look at Tang Zheng and felt that Tang Zheng was unhappy. It might be because of the conflict between him and Xiao Beiqi over Wang Yingying's matter.

But it is not easy for him to interfere in the affairs of the young couple.

Qin Huai also sighed: "I didn't expect that in three years, we would go our separate ways, I retired, you got promoted, and he already has three children."

Mao Jiangchao smiled and said, "Time is pushing us forward. Fortunately, we can still meet each other. It's not easy."

The two chatted and talked about the past. Mao Jiangchao casually mentioned that when the three of them were on a mission, Qin Huai risked his life to block the bullet for Xiao Beiqi.

Qin Huai smiled and said, "At that time, I was thinking that if anything happened to him, our mission would be difficult to carry out. Anyway, I was already injured at that time, and it would be a burden for you guys, so I took the bullet for him. I didn't expect that I could still survive."

Tang Zheng put down the chopsticks in his hand and felt his stomach churning.

She could also understand why Xiao Beiqi liked Qin Huai, after all, it was because of Qin Huai's life-saving grace.

If everything could be done over again, Tang Zheng felt that he should withdraw and help Xiao Beiqi and Qin Huai.

However, there is no if.

"I'm done eating. I'm going to go out for some fresh air while you guys chat." Tang Zheng stood up and forced a smile.

Mao Jiangchao saw Tang Zheng's back and said, "Are the couple really having a quarrel? Otherwise, I'll give him a call and try to persuade him."

Qin Huai looked puzzled: "No, I don't think Xiao Qi was unhappy with Can Yang because of that incident, and Can Yang did nothing wrong."

After dinner, Mao Jiangchao was about to send Qin Huai and Tang Zheng home.

Mainly, I want to stay with Qin Huai for a while longer.

Qin Huai smiled and declined: "Although I have retired from the army, let's fight. You may not be able to beat me. Don't worry, we will not be in danger."

Mao Jiangchao was a little anxious: "How can there be no danger? If it weren't for the danger, we might not encounter it again."

Qin Huai smiled and pulled his coat closer: "Okay then."

After returning home, Tang Zheng invited Mao Jiangchao to come in and sit down, and Mao Jiangchao did not refuse.

Tang Zheng asked Zou Hong to make tea for the two of them, and then he used the excuse that he was tired and needed to rest, leaving the space for the two of them.

I don’t know what the two people talked about or how long they talked, and I don’t know when Mao Jiangchao left.

In fact, Tang Zheng hoped that the two of them could be together, so that she wouldn't have to worry about her relationship with Xiao Beiqi being affected, but it was just a hope.

Soon, Director Jiang and Director Wei learned that Tang Zheng was coming to Shanghai, and they called Ms. Yi to invite Tang Zheng to dinner.

After all, ever since the two of them met Tang Zheng, the factory's business has improved a lot, and the two of them can also secure the position of factory director.

So after Tang Zheng finished his get out of class, he invited Director Wei, Director Jiang, Hua Fangfang's parents, and Ms. Yi to have dinner together.

Hua Fangfang's father was not present, but Hua's mother was.

When Hua's mother saw Tang Zheng's arm hanging around her neck, she felt distressed.

Director Jiang joked: "It's okay, just eat some pig's trotters to replenish your body!"

Director Wei said, "She is badly injured. She needs to eat cow hooves!"

Tang Zheng said seriously: "Actually, I want to taste the bear paw more..."

Several people laughed.

At the dinner table, Hua's mother thought of something: "Xiao Tang, I heard that you sold a lot of canned food to Director Jiang and Director Wei before?"

Ms. Yi was a little surprised and asked Tang Zheng: "You are also making canned food, why haven't I heard of it?"

Tang Zheng nodded and told the truth: "I didn't think about making money. At that time, it was purely for business competition."

She originally wanted to compete with Wei Bowen for business, but she snatched the fruit that Wei Bowen wanted to buy, which also caused trouble for Wei Bowen.

Hua's mother continued, "I had the honor of trying your canned food, and it tasted pretty good. I also want to give some benefits to employees during the Chinese New Year. If you make your canned food, please bring some to our factory."

Tang Zheng hesitated for a moment: "If the quantity needed is small, I won't do it. It's quite troublesome. Besides, the transportation costs a lot of money. If you are not careful, they will all break into pieces."

To be honest, Tang Zheng didn't make any money from transporting those canned goods all the way from Huada to Shanghai. He just earned some hard work fee.

Besides, there is work in the handicraft workshop this year, so we don’t need these canned goods.

Director Wei said quickly, "Yes, yes, yes. We'll take as many as you make. Our employees said your canned food tasted better than the ones sold outside. You should make some this year, too!"

Director Jiang also said: "That's right, just make more. Our factory employees also say that your canned food is good."

Tang Zheng was still a little hesitant: "This really doesn't make money. I think it's still too troublesome..."

Hua's mother quickly said, "It's not a big deal. At worst, we can raise the price. Can we raise the price by one dollar per bottle?"

Director Jiang opened his mouth. He felt that a one-dollar increase was a bit too much and a maximum increase of fifty cents would be enough.

Tang Zheng seemed quite aggrieved, and reluctantly agreed: "Okay then, for the sake of you and the two factory managers, I will work harder this year and let everyone do more."

Director Jiang was almost unable to bear it any longer: "You worked so hard, but you think our money came from the wind?"

Tang Zheng quickly said: "Of course not, I just want to thank you all for taking care of me, so I specially treat you to a meal."

Director Jiang picked his teeth with a toothpick: "One meal is not enough. As for the tape recorder, rice cooker and so on, I gave you the lowest price. At that price, I would not sell it to others even if they begged me. How much money must you have saved?"

Director Jiang was telling the truth. The home appliance market has been getting better and better these days. Some people can't get goods even if they have money. Director Jiang still supplies her with goods at the lowest price. Tang Zheng was really grateful.

"So, I specially designed a set of clothes for Uncle Jiang and everyone else. Even though it's not worth much, it's a token of my appreciation!"

As Tang Zheng was talking, Ms. Yi helped pass the things to a few people: "I have to interrupt, actually, Xiao Tang is a really nice person, she is not ungrateful, otherwise I would not be friends with her!"

Ever since Tang Zheng designed clothes for the clients in Shanghai last time, everyone was very satisfied and Tang Zheng gradually became famous.

Now, they were able to get clothes designed by Tang Zheng himself, and it would be a lie to say they were not happy.

Hua's mother smiled and joked: "You are so sweet, is it because Xiao Tang gave you some benefits?"
