Lin Lan also recognized Han Qingsong and said with a smile, “Officer Liu should eat too,” She asked Xiaowang to address the man as uncle and the child did so obediently before continuing to eat his steamed buns.
Liu Jianyun teased Xiaowang for a bit and sat down next to Han Qingsong, “Sister-in-law, you don’t have to be polite to me as you can just call me Jianyun. Dawang’s performance in school has been quite alright.”
Lin Lan, “Don’t mention it, the reason that he isn’t skipping is probably because of his father. But we’re not at home today, so I’m not too sure what will happen.”
Liu Jianyun laughed and said comfortingly, “Sister-in-law, don’t worry, children in their teenage years are . We have all gone through that phase once, so we understand.”
Lin Lan said to Han Qingsong, “If the two of you have matters to handle, you can go right ahead. I’ll be fine here.”
Liu Jianyun waved his hand and called a familiar cook from the canteen over, “Fry a plate of sunflower seeds for my sister-in-law and nephew later.”
The man quickly responded, “Okay.”
Liu Jianyun said to Han Qingsong again, “Don’t worry, Director Han, I will find a female colleague to go shopping with my sister-in-law and her kid later.”
Lin Lan smiled and expressed that she had no problem with it, letting them just go about their business.
Han Qingsong gave a few more instructions before he left the canteen with Liu Jianyun.
After walking a few steps, he saw Zhao Anhong standing there smiling.
“Director Han, my attitude was not good just now and I should repent. I will compensate you for the injustice that you have suffered,” Zhao Anhong bowed to Han Qingsong.
Han Qingsong, “No need.”
Liu Jianyun smiled and said, “Our Director Han is both magnanimous and capable, so he wouldn’t pick a fight with someone of your stature. If you don’t cause him problems, you’ll be alright; but if you do stir up trouble again, no one else will be able to help you,” He said as he accompanied Han Qingsong to the conference room.
Zhao Anhong’s plump face suddenly became ugly as she hurried away to find Zhao Anpin.
In the end, she tried going to the Factory Revolutionary Committee, but she couldn’t locate him. She asked about his whereabouts but was merely informed that a few men had escorted him away. As to what the context was, no one had a clue.
Zhao Anhong immediately felt uneasy and had an ominous premonition.
At this time, Luo Haicheng had also brought his people over. Zhao Jianshe, Shorty, Skinny and the few soldiers who were in charge of guarding them were also present.
Seeing Han Qingsong, Zhao Jianshe immediately shouted, “Director Han, you can’t try to take revenge on us for your personal gain. We have all gone to the labour camp and suffered, so why are you still not letting us go?”
Han Qingsong didn’t bother to pay attention to him at first, but when he heard him screaming out in vain, he walked over and snorted softly, “The labour reform farm is not a prison, so if you do what you’re supposed to and try to reduce your sentence, it’s not impossible for a 5-year sentence to be cut down to 2. But if you know the law and yet continue to break it still, there will only be additional crimes pinned to your name.”
Zhao Jianshe wanted to shout at him again, but Luo Haicheng patted his shoulder, making his facial expressions change out of fright.
Throughout the entire journey to the conference room, there were many times where he had to endure Luo Haicheng’s menacing gaze.
