Chapter 165 - 160: Trouble
Zhiming glanced at Zhiyong, and seeing that Zhiyong did not object, he dared to respond to Pingying’s words, "I won’t go tomorrow. I’ll take a leave to accompany Xiu’er around the city, and I’ll send her back to the city the day after tomorrow."
Zhiyong did not oppose because he had experienced the same, understanding that when one’s wife is not around, one surely misses her. It wasn’t too much for her to ask for a day off.
But he still reminded him, "Can you actually get the leave? Don’t mess things up. The timber factory can’t afford to be short-staffed, don’t stir up trouble for me in the end."
Zhiming sensed from Zhiyong’s words that he was allowed to take leave, and immediately smiled, "No worries, brother. I’ll formally request the leave. At most, they’ll deduct one day’s salary. The manager will allow it."
Zhiyong nodded, "Alright then, take some things with you and come back early. Be careful on the road."
Since other things were not yet prepared, Zhiming and Xiu only packed some rice in a lunchbox, and took away the steamed meat that Pingying had originally cooked with the rice, along with some pickles. It was enough for the two of them to have a meal.
Watching the eagerness of Zhiming and his companion to leave, Pingying shook her head, hoping that at the timber factory tonight only Zhiming would stay, otherwise...
Indeed, Pingying’s worry was not superfluous as Zhiming and Xiu were like newlyweds excited to reunite, their hearts burning with impatience.
Almost as soon as they left the military base and hadn’t walked ten meters, taking advantage of the darkness and the unseen surrounds, they darted into the roadside bushes and began to kiss impatiently.
