"Xiaoxiao, I'm going out next month," Zhao Guangcai suddenly said. 0
"Where to?" Zhang Xiaoxiao asked, slightly taken aback. 0
"To do business," Zhao Guangcai replied. 0
"Oh," Zhang Xiaoxiao responded. 0
"Xiaoxiao, will you be unhappy?" Zhao Guangcai asked with concern. 0
"No, you're doing important work. How could I be unhappy?" Zhang Xiaoxiao smiled. 0
"That's good," Zhao Guangcai sighed in relief. 0
"Guangcai, how long will you be gone?" Zhang Xiaoxiao asked. 0
"About half a month," Zhao Guangcai said. 0
"That long?" Zhang Xiaoxiao exclaimed. 0
"Yeah, because the place I'm going to is a bit far," Zhao Guangcai explained. 0
"Then you need to pay attention to safety," Zhang Xiaoxiao said with concern. 0
"Okay," Zhao Guangcai nodded. 0
"When you're out there, don't be stingy with money; make sure to eat well," Zhang Xiaoxiao advised. 0
"Got it, I will," Zhao Guangcai replied obediently. 0
"Guangcai, why are you so nice?" Zhang Xiaoxiao couldn't help but exclaim. 0
"Because you are my Wife," Zhao Guangcai said seriously. 0
"Guangcai, you are really good to me," Zhang Xiaoxiao said, touched. 0
"Silly, if I'm not good to you, who else would I be good to?" Zhao Guangcai said indulgently. 0
"Hehe," Zhang Xiaoxiao laughed foolishly. 0
"Xiaoxiao, you stay home and wait for me; I'll be back soon," Zhao Guangcai instructed. 0
"Okay," Zhang Xiaoxiao nodded. 0
"If you miss me, just give me a call," Zhao Guangcai said. 0
 
 
"Okay," Zhang Xiaoxiao replied obediently. 0
"I will try to come back early," Zhao Guangcai promised. 0
"Mm," Zhang Xiaoxiao responded. 0
"Xiaoxiao, I'm leaving now. You need to take good care of yourself," Zhao Guangcai said reluctantly. 0
"I will," Zhang Xiaoxiao nodded. 0
"If anyone bullies you, just go find the village chief," Zhao Guangcai instructed. 0
"Okay," Zhang Xiaoxiao nodded again. 0
"Xiaoxiao, I will miss you," Zhao Guangcai said affectionately. 0
"I will miss you too," Zhang Xiaoxiao replied shyly. 0
"Xiaoxiao, I..." Zhao Guangcai hesitated. 0
"What?" Zhang Xiaoxiao asked in confusion. 0
"Can I kiss you?" Zhao Guangcai asked cautiously. 0
"Ah?" Zhang Xiaoxiao was taken aback. 0
"I'll just kiss you once," Zhao Guangcai pleaded. 0
"Well, okay," Zhang Xiaoxiao hesitated. 0
Hearing this, Zhao Guangcai gently pulled Zhang Xiaoxiao into his arms and kissed her forehead. 0
Zhang Xiaoxiao immediately felt her mind go blank, her cheeks heated up, and she was completely dazed. 0
"Xiaoxiao, you're blushing," Zhao Guangcai said with surprise. 0
"I'm not," Zhang Xiaoxiao stubbornly denied. 0
"You are; you're blushing," Zhao Guangcai said happily. 0
"I... I'm just a bit hot," Zhang Xiaoxiao argued defensively. 0
"Hehe, you look really cute when you're shy," Zhao Guangcai laughed. 0
"I'm not," Zhang Xiaoxiao insisted stubbornly. 0
"Xiaoxiao, I will miss you," Zhao Guangcai said affectionately again. 0
"I will miss you too," Zhang Xiaoxiao replied shyly once more. 0
 
 
"Xiaoxiao, I'm leaving. You need to take good care of yourself," Zhao Guangcai said reluctantly. 0
"I will, you too," Zhang Xiaoxiao replied with concern. 0
"Okay, I'm off then," Zhao Guangcai said. 0
"Alright," Zhang Xiaoxiao responded. 0
After Zhao Guangcai left, Zhang Xiaoxiao sat on the sofa in a daze. 0
She recalled the moment when Zhao Guangcai kissed her forehead, feeling both sweet and shy inside. 0
"Zhang Xiaoxiao, what are you thinking about?" she murmured to herself. 0
"Could it be that you have feelings for Zhao Guangcai?" Zhang Xiaoxiao exclaimed in shock. 0
"No way, how could you like him?" she denied. 0
"But it seems like he has a place in your heart," she pondered with confusion. 0
"That's because you are married to him," she reasoned. 0
"True, I am his wife, so it's normal to have him in my heart," she comforted herself. 0
"Alright, stop overthinking it. I should focus on completing the task first," Zhang Xiaoxiao told herself. 0
"However, this task is really difficult," she sighed in frustration. 0
"Forget it, I might as well get some sleep," Zhang Xiaoxiao decided. 0
 
The next morning, just after finishing breakfast, Chen Shuying arrived. 0
"Sister Chen, good morning," Zhang Xiaoxiao greeted politely. 0
"Zhang Xiaoxiao, good morning," Chen Shuying responded. 0
"Sister Chen, did you come to see me for something?" Zhang Xiaoxiao asked directly. 0
"Um, I have something I need your help with," Chen Shuying hesitated. 0
"What is it?" Zhang Xiaoxiao asked curiously. 0
"The Textile Factory sent an inspector over, and I would like you to accompany me to check it out," Chen Shuying requested. 0
"Sure!" Zhang Xiaoxiao readily agreed. 0
"Really? That's great!" Chen Shuying exclaimed excitedly. 0
"Sister Chen, when are we going?" Zhang Xiaoxiao asked. 0
 
 
"Can we go now?" Chen Shuying asked. 0
"Sure," Zhang Xiaoxiao nodded. 0
"Then I appreciate it," Chen Shuying said gratefully. 0
"You're welcome," Zhang Xiaoxiao smiled. 0
The two then went to the village chief's house together. 0
At the village chief's house, besides the chief, there were two strangers. 0
"Chen Shuying has arrived," the village chief greeted. 0
"Yes, Chief," Chen Shuying nodded. 0
"Is this Chen Shuying?" a strange man asked. 0
"Yes, she is Chen Shuying," the village chief introduced. 0
"Chen Shuying, this is the Inspector from the Textile Factory," the village chief introduced. 0
"Hello," Chen Shuying said politely. 0
"Not that impressive," the Inspector scoffed. 0
"What did you say?" Chen Shuying asked angrily. 0
"I said you're not that impressive," the Inspector replied arrogantly. 0
"What do you mean by that?" Chen Shuying questioned. 0
"It means exactly what it says," the Inspector said disdainfully. 0
"You..." Chen Shuying was so angry she couldn't speak. 0
"What about me? I'm just speaking the truth," the Inspector boasted. 0
"Are you looking for trouble?" the village chief said displeased. 0
"How could I dare? You're the village chief," the Inspector mocked. 0
"As long as you know that," the village chief said coldly. 0
"Hmph," the Inspector snorted dismissively. 0
