The engagement is over, but the black-bellied president won't let go

Leng Ruofei never thought that she would see Xiao Yiyang again in such an occasion. When Xiao Yiyang's figure came into her sight, she widened her eyes in surprise. At that moment, it was as if a huge rock was thrown into her heart, stirring up layers of ripples, full of surprise and surprise.

Xiao Yiyang walked into the conference room with an upright figure. His appearance instantly quieted the noisy room. Leng Ruofei followed him closely, unwilling to look away for a moment. Xiao Yiyang also noticed Leng Ruofei inadvertently. A trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. The fleeting expression was like a meteor across the night sky, short but dazzling. But soon, he regained his composure. His calm appearance, like a general who had been on the battlefield for a long time, made people feel extremely at ease.

The regular meeting officially began, and Xiao Yiyang presided over the meeting in an orderly manner. His voice was low and magnetic, and every word was clear and powerful, as if carrying an invisible force, guiding everyone's thoughts. He asked about everyone's work situation in detail, and carefully recorded the problems and corresponding solutions in the notebook with a pen in his hand. His eyes were focused and firm, not missing any details, and his serious look fascinated Leng Ruofei.

When it was Leng Ruofei's turn to report, she took a deep breath, tried to calm her inner excitement, and described her day's work in a clear and orderly manner. From the preparations in the early morning to the progress of the tasks, to the difficulties encountered and the solutions, she talked about it. Xiao Yiyang nodded slightly to show his approval. He praised Leng Ruofei and Lingling, the two new community workers, for quickly entering the working state and completing the day's work tasks well. At that moment, Leng Ruofei felt that her efforts had been recognized to the greatest extent, and her heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment.

The meeting ended in a tense and orderly atmosphere. Everyone stood up and went back to their rooms. Xiao Yiyang also left in a hurry. He did not stay for a long time because he met Leng Ruofei. It seemed that there was more important work waiting for him to deal with. Leng Ruofei looked at his back as he walked away. Although he was reluctant to let him go, he also understood that he had a heavy responsibility.

In order to better prevent infection, they arranged rooms according to the division of labor. Leng Ruofei and Lingling were arranged to live in a standard room. This arrangement is very reasonable. If an infection unfortunately occurs, they can also be isolated separately, thus minimizing the loss of staff.

After returning to the room, Leng Ruofei couldn't calm down for a long time. After not seeing each other for so long, she thought that her longing would fade away with the passage of time, but when she really saw Xiao Yiyang in person, she realized that her longing not only did not decrease, but became more mellow like aged wine, lingering in her heart and lingering.

She recalled every moment she had spent with Xiao Yiyang, the warm smiles and sweet times they had spent together. Every moment was like a movie playing in her mind. She didn't know what the future would be like, and she didn't know how many more moments they would have to meet and part in such a hurry.

Leng Ruofei lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling, her mind racing. The moonlight from outside the window shone through the gaps in the curtains, as if covering the room with a layer of silver gauze. In this soft moonlight, she gradually fell asleep. In her dream, she saw Xiao Yiyang again. They walked hand in hand in Dongguan Village. There was no pressure from work, no pain from separation, only each other's company and endless love.

On the second day in the quarantine hotel, before the morning sun had completely penetrated the clouds, Leng Ruofei had already devoted herself to her work. She was wearing protective clothing, and her white figure was particularly eye-catching in the slightly empty corridor, like a fearless warrior ready to face the challenges of a new day.

Xiao Yiyang, the head of the quarantine point, arrived at the green channel early. At this time, he looked serious and focused, staring closely at every staff member wearing protective clothing, carefully checking whether their protective equipment was worn properly. He held transparent tape in his hand and carefully wrapped it around the outside of each staff member's gloves to ensure the strictness of the protection.

When it was Leng Ruofei's turn, Xiao Yiyang paused for a moment. He only wore an N95 mask and no protective clothing. It was as if in this brief moment, he had put aside the dignity and responsibility of being a police chief, and only his concern for Leng Ruofei remained in his eyes. His eyes were deep and affectionate, like a bottomless pool that made it difficult for people to extricate themselves once they fell into it.

Leng Ruofei met his gaze, and at that moment, time seemed to stand still. Everything around her became blurry, and only Xiao Yiyang's affectionate eyes were clearly imprinted in her heart. She saw worry, concern, and an indescribable firmness in his eyes. It was a firm belief that no matter what difficulties he faced, he would protect everyone.

Xiao Yiyang gently took Leng Ruofei's hand, and his cautious movements were as if he was holding the most precious treasure in the world. He began to carefully wrap the transparent tape around her, wrapping each circle so seriously and attentively. Sweat beads slightly oozed from his forehead, but his eyes never left Leng Ruofei's hands, as if these hands carried all his hopes and sustenance.

Leng Ruofei felt his movements, and a warm current surged in her heart. In this tense and uneasy isolation environment, Xiao Yiyang's eyes and actions were like a beam of warm light, illuminating every corner of her heart. She knew that they were shouldering a great responsibility at the moment, but in this difficult time, each other's presence was the greatest support and comfort.

"Be careful and protect yourself." Xiao Yiyang's voice was low and gentle, as if it was a warning coming from the bottom of his heart.

Leng Ruofei nodded heavily, "You too." Although her voice sounded a little muffled through the mask, the firmness in it was clearly audible.

In this short yet long moment, they didn't need more words, their eyes had already conveyed thousands of words. Afterwards, Leng Ruofei turned around and started working, while Xiao Yiyang continued to prepare protection for other staff members. But the encounter at that moment will be forever engraved in their hearts and become their warmest memory in this war without gunpowder.

The work of the day was still busy and stressful, but Leng Ruofei's heart was full of strength. She knew that in this battle, she was not alone, with Xiao Yiyang and many partners fighting side by side, they would definitely be able to overcome difficulties and usher in the dawn of victory.

This is the fourteenth day that Xiao Yiyang has arrived at the quarantine hotel. Time has passed quietly in the busyness and tension, but it has left a deep mark in everyone's heart.

The morning sun gently shines on the outer wall of the quarantine hotel, bringing a touch of warmth and hope to this building temporarily shrouded in haze. Today is the day when the first batch of close contacts staying in the quarantine hotel are released from lockdown. The whole hotel is filled with a different atmosphere, and everyone's faces are filled with irrepressible joy.

Xiao Yiyang started his busy day early. He was wearing protective clothing and walking hurriedly, with a determined and focused look in his eyes. He carefully checked the information of each close contact who was about to be released from the lockdown to ensure that there were no omissions. He held the folder tightly in his hand, and the densely packed records on it were a testimony to his hard work these days.

Leng Ruofei was on the other side, methodically preparing the various documents and certificates required for the close contacts to be released. Her movements were skillful and quick, her eyes focused on the work in her hands, and she did not dare to be careless. She checked each document several times to ensure the accuracy of the information.

"Yi... Director... Please take a look at this list. Is there anything else you need to add?" Leng Ruofei raised his head and shouted in the direction of Xiao Yiyang. The staff here all called Xiao Yiyang "Director".

Xiao Yiyang walked over quickly upon hearing the voice, took the list handed over by Leng Ruofei, and examined it carefully. "Well, I think we need to add their nucleic acid test results and health monitoring records during the quarantine period."

Leng Ruofei nodded and immediately started to add relevant content.

When the preparations were almost finished, Xiao Yiyang personally checked the disinfection of the isolation area again. He did not miss any corner to ensure the safety of the environment.

When everything was ready, Xiao Yiyang and Leng Ruofei stood in the hotel lobby to welcome the first group of close contacts downstairs.

"These difficult days are finally over!" a close contact said excitedly.

Xiao Yiyang responded with a smile: "Congratulations, but you still need to pay attention to protection when you go back, and don't take it lightly."

Leng Ruofei patiently explained to each close contact the precautions after separation and distributed relevant documents and certificates.

An old man came over and held Xiao Yiyang's hand, his eyes full of gratitude: "Kid, you have worked hard these days."

Xiao Yiyang said quickly: "This is what we should do. Go back and have a good rest and take care of your health."

In this joyful atmosphere, Xiao Yiyang and Leng Ruofei were filled with a sense of accomplishment. They knew that this was just the beginning and there was more work waiting for them, but the victory at this moment filled them with confidence and strength.

As the close contacts left one after another, everyone looked at their receding backs with relieved smiles on their faces. The sunlight shone on them, as if covering them with a layer of golden light.

Xiao Yiyang knew that with the successful release of the first batch of close contacts, the vacant rooms must be fully disinfected as soon as possible to prepare for the subsequent tasks that may come. Therefore, he quickly contacted a professional disinfection team, and a meticulous disinfection work was carried out in full swing in the quarantine hotel.

The members of the disinfection team wore strict protective clothing and held professional disinfection equipment, and walked into empty rooms one by one. The disinfectant mist sprayed from the sprayer filled the air, leaving no corner untouched, including beds, tables and chairs, toilets, and even small windowsill gaps. Xiao Yiyang personally supervised on site to ensure the strict implementation of the disinfection work and not miss any place where the virus might be hidden.

With the completion of the disinfection work, more than half of the hotel rooms were vacant. The slightly crowded and tense atmosphere of the past was relieved at once, and everyone's mood became very happy. That feeling was like the joy of finally seeing a ray of light in the distance after a long journey in the dark night.

At dinner time, according to the strict quarantine regulations, gatherings were not allowed. However, Xiao Yiyang knew everyone's hard work and dedication during this period, so in order to let everyone have a moment of relaxation and satisfaction in the intense work, he still asked the hotel to add more meals for everyone.

Everyone was very happy. It was the first time for us to have such a rich meal after eating boxed lunches for so long. Everyone had a relaxed smile on their face. The aroma of the food filled the air. Everyone had their meals via video in their respective rooms, enjoying this rare way of meeting. Some people were talking about the scenes of the dissociated close contacts returning home, imagining the warm scenes of their reunion with their families; some were exchanging their work experiences and sharing each other's growth and progress.

Leng Ruofei looked at Xiao Yiyang in the video camera, and when their eyes met, he always felt sweet in his heart. Just when everyone was relaxed and happy, Xiao Yiyang received a call. Everyone was silent, and vaguely sensed the urgency of the situation from the conversation. Then, Xiao Yiyang said seriously in the video: "I'm very sorry, everyone hurry up and have dinner, and gather in half an hour..." This sudden news was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, instantly breaking the original tranquility.

The content of the notice made everyone's heart tighten: it said that four buses of close contacts, about 200 people, would be sent to their hotel. Everyone's expression immediately became serious. People who were just immersed in a relaxed atmosphere immediately put down their lunch boxes, stood up without hesitation, and quickly ran towards the work area.

This is not the first time we have faced an emergency task, but this time the situation seems to be more serious. Xiao Yiyang solemnly issued a safety reminder in the group for the first time, which made everyone more aware of the difficulty of the task. It turned out that the close contacts of this car were sent from the same community, where dozens of infected people were found to be receiving treatment in the Sixth Hospital.
