Chapter 68 Shen Lin's Infallibility
Cold cucumber, stir-fried meat, stir-fried winter squash...
Although she was in a hurry, Zhao Honglian still cooked a table of dishes, but there was not much meat because of the lack of ingredients at home.
"Xiaorong, you should eat more meat. I made it in a hurry this time. I'll buy you an old hen later and we can have a good meal."
Hearing what Zhao Honglian said, Lu Xiaorong hurriedly said, "Mom, we just had a fish meal yesterday, so there's really no need to bother."
Zhao Honglian put a piece of meat in Lu Xiaorong's bowl and said, "Child, I know you are sensible, but this time you must listen to me when it comes to eating."
At this point, she said without question: "From now on, you can come here to eat."
From Zhao Honglian's expression, Lu Xiaorong knew that Zhao Honglian felt that she was lying. But Lu Xiaorong really wanted to tell Zhao Honglian that she was not lying, and everything she said was true.
Shen Lin really tried different ways to eat every day, to the point that she really couldn't eat anymore.
After seeing Zhao Honglian's determined expression, Lu Xiaorong finally chose to give up resisting. She knew that her mother-in-law would never believe anything she said at this moment.
Although Chen Hongying threatened to divorce, the family still had a sweet meal. When Shen Lin and Lu Xiaorong were about to leave, Shen Xingye stopped them.
Shen Xingye took out two bottles of wine that looked quite old from the cabinet in his bedroom.
"This is what my old comrade brought me when he came to visit me. When you visit his home, give it to him."
"Now we are asking someone to do something for us, it would be embarrassing if we don't take something in return."
Looking at Shen Xingye's graying hair, Shen Lin felt his nose sour. His father was still so concerned about him at this time, which made him feel warm in his heart.
"Dad, don't worry, I know what to do."
Weighing two bottles of old wine marked as internally supplied, Shen Lin and Lu Xiaorong walked out of the family compound. At this time, the sun was high outside the gate and there were few pedestrians on the street. Even though the two walked under the shade of the trees, they still felt hot.
"If you can't transfer, will you really divorce me like ?" After taking a few steps, Lu Xiaorong suddenly raised his head and asked Shen Lin.
Shen Lin looked at Lu Xiaorong who was very serious, patted her on the shoulder and said, "Of course not. How can I bear to divorce you?"
"So what you said to my mother was a delaying tactic ?" A smile appeared on Lu Xiaorong's face.
For her, what she liked most was Shen Lin's promise to never leave her.
"It's not a delaying tactic. Let me tell you, it's a foolproof plan." Shen Lin, who had put his worries to rest, said to Lu Xiaorong with a smile.
"Are you sure that person can help us?" Lu Xiaorong asked Shen Lin in disbelief.
Shen Lin shook the wine in his hand and said, "I can't guarantee this, but I can guarantee that you can't go to the boiler room."
At this point, Shen Lin said confidently: "It's only a job that pays a few dozen yuan a month. At worst, we can just quit."
"As long as we don't do it, we will never be able to go to the boiler room, right?"
Lu Xiaorong stared at Shen Lin with wide eyes. She didn't expect that Shen Lin's confidence came from here.
She wanted to say something to Shen Lin, but before she opened her mouth, she felt that what Shen Lin said did make sense.
But what can I do if I leave my job?
For a moment, Lu Xiaorong's heart suddenly felt a little depressed.
"Wife, this is just my worst-case scenario. I think that person should be able to handle this for us." Shen Lin looked at Lu Xiaorong's expression, guessed what Lu Xiaorong was worried about, and hurriedly said to Lu Xiaorong with a smile.
Lu Xiaorong hesitated for a moment and said, "If I don't want to work in the factory, then I won't work in the factory. I think I can support myself."
" Did you know that The Wandering Earth that you told me about has been published? The royalties alone are over 200 yuan."
When talking about the royalties, Lu Xiaorong's expression was filled with joy.
Looking at the energetic Lu Xiaorong, Shen Lin suddenly realized that Lu Xiaorong’s favorite job might be to be an author, rather than entering the workshop like he was doing now.
Shen Lin, who had not yet had a clear target, made up his mind at this moment. He knew where to transfer Lu Xiaorong at this time.
Ten minutes later, Shen Lin and his partner arrived at the door of their home. Before they could go upstairs, they saw a man rushing out from the staircase entrance.
"Shen Lin, Lu Xiaorong, did you two really write The Wandering Earth?" Li Yutong looked at Shen Lin and Lu Xiaorong with disbelief.
After reading The Wandering Earth, he had countless thoughts in his mind. He was originally planning to take a good nap at noon and return the book to Lu Xiaorong, but he somehow ran to the door of Shen Lin's house, ready to discuss the content of The Wandering Earth with the two of them.
Looking at the passionate Li Yutong, Lu Xiaorong didn't know what to say, while Shen Lin smiled and said, "We both wrote it."
"Oh, you guys are really amazing. I... I didn't expect that there would be such amazing people like you around me."
Li Yutong said here and quickly said: "I think that The Wandering Earth has too little content. You should continue writing it. It would be best if you could write about the aliens..."
Looking at Li Yutong , Shen Lin felt helpless. This buddy seemed to be really obsessed.
After discussing with Li Yutong for a few sentences, he interrupted Li Yutong and said, "Yutong, my wife is pregnant and needs to rest. I think it's better for us to discuss it in the evening."
Li Yutong scratched his head embarrassedly, handed the things in his hand to Shen Lin and said, "Okay Shen Lin, I'll come over in the evening."
Shen Lin was speechless for a while. What he said just now was really just a polite gesture, but he didn't expect that this guy actually took it seriously.
Li Yutong said goodbye and ran quickly towards the scorching sun, but he didn't run a few steps before running back and said, "Shen Lin, I heard about what happened between you two. I think you two should prepare in advance."
"That... that factory office has issued a notice saying that starting from today, all personnel changes will be frozen for a month."
"That is to say, if Xiaorong wants to be transferred out of the boiler room, he won't be able to do so within at least one month."
Shen Lin was not surprised by this. But Lu Xiaorong was extremely angry. Bai Bin and others were forcing them to divorce!
"Thank you, Yutong. We know what to do." Shen Lin patted Li Yutong on the shoulder and said, "My wife can't go to the boiler room, and the two of us can't get divorced."
Li Yutong was very skeptical about Shen Lin's words. After all, anyone with a little bit of common sense knew that it would be difficult for Shen Lin to accomplish this matter.
But he still said to Shen Lin: "I'll wait for your good news."
