The ideas that Lin Jiayi instilled in her in the previous life were too deeply rooted.
A husband who does not return home all year round, from the moment Qin Yang boarded the train, was locked in a small dark room in her mind.
The person locked in the small dark room by someone, at this moment, just returned to his office, washed up at the tap, and then went to the cafeteria.
He had arrived yesterday evening, and although he had handed over the work with his colleagues, he naturally had to check on it in person once he was back.
There aren’t many people in the cafeteria right now. Qin Yang got a meal for himself, today’s dishes are eggplant and tofu, with a bit of minced meat in the eggplant. Even though the minced meat is pitifully little, today’s meal is considered quite good.
They are located in a very remote area, and the roads are also difficult to traverse, often resulting in supply shortages.
Taking a canned jar out of his pocket, a touch of warmth flashed through Qin Yang’s eyes.
Lin Chuxia brought him five jars of canned beef sauce. Yesterday, when he returned to report the end of his leave, he gave Minister Wang a jar along with some wedding candies, and also gave one jar to his old partner Bai Xiaoming, planning to slowly enjoy the remaining three jars by himself.
As for the two jars of chili paste, he had no intention of sharing them, as they were specially prepared for him by his wife.
Even giving away two jars of beef sauce made him feel quite distressed.
Just as he opened the jar, he heard a familiar voice behind him, "Why are you sitting here alone?"
The lid that had just been opened was silently screwed back on, and he looked expressionlessly at Bai Xiaoming, "It’s quieter here."
Qin Yang was a cool and quiet person by nature, and as his old partner, Bai Xiaoming naturally understood him.
What really surprised him was that Qin Yang had taken leave to get married this time.
His old partner had solid theoretical knowledge, strong abilities, and a sharp mind. He was known for his meticulous work, having prevented accidents on multiple occasions. Despite his young age, he had made a name for himself among their engineers and was also very handsome.
Being seen as a good employee and a key training target by the leadership, his personal life naturally also drew everyone’s attention.
Yet this man was indifferent and cold, and it seemed that aside from work, there was nothing that could catch his eye.
Many wives of his colleagues asked him about Qin Yang’s personal matters, hoping to marry their daughters or nieces to him, asking him to be the matchmaker.
But the responses they got from Qin Yang were almost always the same – he didn’t want to delay these girls.
For a while, everyone even suspected there was something wrong with his old partner.
Such a person suddenly went back home to get married.
Honestly, when Qin Yang asked him to help with the marriage certification, Bai Xiaoming thought he was joking.
So many eligible girls he did not consider, and yet he just married a woman from his hometown whom he had never met before. Who could have such an attitude towards marriage?
Indeed, a man who only has eyes for work can’t even seem to offer a trace of warmth to his wife.
Bai Xiaoming had felt sorry for that wife from his hometown.
However, when this man returned from his hometown yesterday, Bai Xiaoming felt that something was different about him.
Bai Xiaoming sat directly across Qin Yang, reaching out his hand toward the canned jar.
Qin Yang quickly pressed down on the jar, his sharp eyes looking over.
