to find a topic of conversation, but her mouth opened several times before she could utter a sound.Thankfully, Lawyer Shu's call saved her.The moment her phone rang, she immediately answered it, witho...Once, she took him as her earth, rooting and sprouting in his soil. Now, she has broken ground, grown into a tree, touching new sunlight and rain, with a wider world to explore.

If she were a tree, she could not live without soil; but without sunshine and rain, she would wither away just the same.

She has a bit of an ostrich mentality, deliberately ignoring and not thinking about the problem, focusing on taking each step in the present moment is most important.

The visiting group is scheduled to depart next week, so this week's main focus is on providing them with rigorous training.

Chen Ning went back to daytime training and went home in the evening to read Zhang Lao Shi's work notes, completely immersed in them. Occasionally, when she encountered questions, she would message Xu Hao Chen for advice, directly ignoring Song Jingye.

Song Jingye felt a little uncomfortable, "Xu Haichen went with you too"

"Yes."

"Limit your outside contact." he commanded.

Chen Ling heard the sourness in his tone and smiled: "We're just good friends. Just like your relationship with Zheng Ke."

She didn't understand why someone like Xu Haocheng, at such a young age, was so emotionally detached, until that morning after training camp when she saw him being beaten. She realized he had someone in his heart, someone who caused him immense pain.

Song Jingye temporarily believed her words.

The time for the visit arrived soon, and the group accompanied the leaders of the Ministry of Economy on a chartered flight to France. Therefore, they were already in work mode when they gathered at the airport.

Song Jingye was unable to appear, so he only drove her to the airport parking lot. The two sat in the car for a while, with a hint of reluctance.

It seems like their relationship has been quite a rollercoaster, hasn't it They barely even...

In just a few days, he went to the border for 20 days. He only returned a few days ago, and now she is leaving again.

Separately, it seems to have become the main theme between them.

Thinking about this, Chen Ling felt a little sad.

Song Jingye hugged her: "Go down. Work hard over there, and try not to leave the team alone during your break time. If you really want to go out, ask Xu Haichen to accompany you."

Chen Ling, who was already a little sad, replied, hearing him say that, her heart ached even more: "Didn't you tell me to stay away from him"

"Your safety is the most important."

As they were talking, a car pulled up in the distance. Xu Haichen got out, carrying his suitcase, and walked towards the elevator entrance.

"Go on, don't be late." Song Jingye got out of the car and went to the trunk to get her luggage.

"Then I'll be going." She took the suitcase, then suddenly put it down, reaching out to hug him. "Uncle, I'm going to miss you."

Song Jingye also tightly hugged her back, all his emotions contained within this embrace, needing no further explanation.

Chen Ning returned the warmth of his hand, did not dare to linger any longer. Pulling her suitcase, she ran after Xu Haichen.

The entire delegation has over 50 people, and among the new members are only her and Xu Haocen, so every one of them is their senior.

Before coming, each member's job responsibilities were clearly and explicitly listed. For new members like Chen Ninghui and Xu Huichen, the focus was on learning and cultivating, so they were assigned some basic, more logistical support tasks.

After arriving in F, their colleagues stationed there had been waiting at the airport and arranged for a vehicle to take them to the hotel where they would be staying. The hotel was located near the Chinese Embassy in F.

Chen Ling and Xu Haocheng, as soon as they arrived at the hotel, checked in with their local colleagues and had rooms assigned to each senior.

the room.

Their colleague stationed there, whose surname is Zhang, is a particularly meticulous woman, about in her thirties. She is very thoughtful and warm. Before they arrived in France, she created a small group of three people and went over the relevant check-in procedures in advance.

So after arriving, the three worked together seamlessly and efficiently, handling everything smoothly and quickly.

Chen Ninghui's room was right next to Xu Haichen's, and this Teacher Zhang, for the sake of convenience, didn't live in the dormitory. She shared a room with Chen Ninghui.

"Teacher Zhang said, "When we communicated about work in the group before, I thought you and Xiao Xu were about my age, and that you were both very mature in your speech and actions. Today, I was surprised to see that you are both so young."

Mr. Zhang had a somewhat youthful and inexperienced expression of sentiment.

Chen Ning replied: "That's because Teacher Zhang, you organized it well. My partner Xu Haichen and I just followed your instructions. There are many things we don't understand here, and we still need to learn more from you."

After finishing their work, the two chatted for a few minutes. Mid-way through, Zhang's teacher's child called them via video call. Chen Ning quietly listened from the side.

Teacher Zhang was guiding a child's English homework remotely. Her gentle tone gradually became more agitated. After a while, she hung up the video and said, "Sorry, I hope I didn't make you laugh."

Chen Ling smiled and shook her head, saying it was fine. Seeing Teacher Zhang's down-to-earth side, she felt even closer to him.

"There's nothing I can do, she and her father are in China. I'm powerless from afar, all I can do is worry."

"How long have you been out" Chen Ling asked back.

"This is my third year here. Unless something unexpected happens, I should be able to go back next year. When I came out, my child was still in kindergarten, a little kid. Now they're in third grade."

Chen Ning replied:

I see that many seniors and their families are here.

"My husband is a doctor, and his department can't do without him, so he can't come with me. There's no other way." Ms. Zhang seemed to have gotten used to it. Aside from when she talked about child education, she was calm and collected.

“That's just how our work is, where it needs to go, we go there. You get used to it. Every summer vacation, he takes his kids to visit me during his time off, and I also have vacation time every year to go back home for a while, so it's okay.”

Chen Ning saw in Zhang Lao Shi's life a reflection of her own future, ordinary yet fulfilling and without regret.

The next few days will be incredibly busy and hectic. Apart from the scheduled meetings, there will also be smaller discussion sessions with representatives from other countries.

At important meetings, leaders all had dedicated interpreters accompanying them. Chen Ling didn't get a chance to participate in the main sessions, but her immediate superior sent her to several smaller discussions, providing her with valuable training opportunities.

Xu Haocheng is busier than her because their news department has many articles that need to be written immediately. In addition, he is also responsible for reviewing the articles of accompanying media. He carefully reviews every word and sentence before allowing them to be published.

After all, it was their first time participating in such a high-level event and as newcomers, they were both on edge.

Chen Ning only thought to send a message to Song Jingye in the evening, but due to the time difference, her evening was his early morning. She was afraid of disturbing his rest, so she rarely sent messages.

Song Jingye understands the special nature of her work and won't easily text or call her, fearing it might affect her.

Mingming has the most convenient way to get in touch,

But it was as if it had gone missing.e. Although not as disciplined and self-punishing as Zhuo Yu'an, who works from nine to five every day, he still attends work at Whale Finance diligently every day. The Lu family only has him and his...
