"Why are you here?" Huo Yan frowned. He had clearly sent her to the door of the unit downstairs the night before and watched her walk in. Why now, it seemed like Ning Shuyi was lying on the desk in the office. It was as if he had fallen asleep for half the night.
There were red marks on her cheeks.
Ning Shuyi stretched his shoulders and arms, which were sore and numb from lying on the table in one position for too long: "Don't mention it. I only found out when I got home yesterday that the water upstairs in my house broke out on some day while I was away. .
The ceiling of my house is dripping water all the time, and there is no dry place for the bedding or sofa in the house.
It took me half a night to clean it up, and I covered everything I could with dustproof cloths. There was really no place to stay, so I just came to the work unit. "
Ning Shuyi couldn't help but yawned. It was already past four in the morning when she arrived at the unit. She really couldn't bear to go to the duty room to disturb others' rest, so she simply went to the office and lay down on the table to take a nap.
"Where are the tenants upstairs?" Huo Yan asked her with a frown.
Ning Shuyi shrugged: "I knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered. I called according to the contact information they left for my dad, but couldn't get through.
I took the spare key from home and opened the door. The house was empty, the water pipes in the bathroom and kitchen were open, and the drains were blocked.
I took care of the upstairs and then the downstairs. After everything was done, I felt like I could fall asleep standing up..."
As she said this, she was really sleepy and tried to stop herself from dozing off. She had to put one hand on the edge of the table to support her chin, but she was still too sleepy to open her eyes.
"Why didn't you call me to go back and help?" Huo Yan felt helpless when he saw that she was so sleepy and still trying to cheer up. He sighed and sat down aside.
Ning Shuyi opened his eyes, looked at him, then smiled and shook his head: "Aren't you always unwilling to trouble others? If you don't want to trouble others, others must be embarrassed to trouble you."
Huo Yan was stunned for a moment and choked on her words. He held it in for a while before he said, "If this happens again, just call me. Don't be embarrassed."
Ning Shuyi nodded and rubbed his face: "Then, can I trouble you now? Can you make me a cup of coffee?"
Huo Yan stood up and walked to the water dispenser nearby.
"Have you asked a locksmith to come and change the locks?" He made a cup of instant coffee and came back, placed it next to Ning Shuyi's table, and asked again.
Ning Shuyi shook his head: "It's three or four in the morning, so I don't have the nerve to bother people coming over to work.
Fortunately, I wanted to go back and take a look last night. It was estimated that the flooding had not lasted long. Only the ceiling of my house was damaged, and it had not affected the neighbors downstairs. I turned off the faucets and water valves upstairs. , cleaned up the water on the ground, locked the door and left. "
"After you finish what you are doing today, ask the locksmith to change the lock, and I will come with you." Huo Yan looked at his watch, "It should be in time."
Ning Shuyi couldn't sleep well all night, so he picked up the cup of instant coffee and drank it in one breath: "Wait for me a moment, I'll go to the bathroom and wash my face with cold water."
Huo Yan looked at her, who was obviously sleepy but still seemed to be very clear-headed. He couldn't help showing a trace of confusion on his face.
"Do you feel that you can't understand Ning Shuyi?" Zhao Dabao had just arrived and overheard the conversation between the two people.
He and Ning Shuyi have been working together for a longer time, and naturally have more interactions: "She is a girl who looks weak and weak. When she first came to the bureau, we all thought she was just a girl." She is from the local area and is so cherished by her parents, so she is probably a little bit squeamish.
It turned out later that I had guessed it all wrong. The phrase "soft on the outside but strong on the inside" was probably coined after her! Moreover, he is smart and very transparent in his conduct and work.
By the way, if Ning Shuyi needs help with anything, just tell me and I'll be with you.
Ever since my wife grew up this month, Ning Shuyi has let me do everything, not letting me go out to do anything, and always being ready to take care of the family.
But it’s always like this, and I’m embarrassed. "
Huo Yan nodded: "I understand."
After Ning Shuyi washed his face with cold water, although his eyes were dry and achy due to severe lack of sleep, at least he was awake.
This lasted for almost the whole night. Now her head was awake, but her internal organs seemed to be still sleeping. She had no appetite at all, so she declined Huo Yan's suggestion to have breakfast before setting off, and the two of them set off immediately. , went to the factory where Chang Junchao worked before his death to learn about the situation.
After going to the factory, they went to Wang Hongzhen's house and asked other old neighbors to help them recall things related to Deng Qingrong and Chang Junchao's family.
The leaders at the factory had a good evaluation of Chang Junchao, saying that the young man was very smart, learned things quickly, and was safe in doing things. Although he is a bit introverted, unsmiling and doesn't talk much, he is a very nice person and gets along relatively harmoniously with his colleagues.
On weekdays, if the factory needed to work overtime, he would never complain. Even when others were unwilling to work overtime, he would actively ask him to stay.
Generally speaking, Chang Junchao's popularity among the workers in the factory is not bad, but this is just a general evaluation, not bad, but not particularly good.
Some of the workers who worked with him before commented on him. Some people think that although Chang Junchao is not particularly gregarious, his character is not bad and he is a good person. Some people feel that he never communicates with others, always seems to be separated by something, and does not often participate in group activities, let alone drinking and playing games together.
Female colleagues' evaluation of him was more uniform, with just two words - "Mama's baby".
A female workshop worker in a factory said to Ning Shuyi and Huo Yan: "What era is this? I have never seen another person like Chang Junchao!
An adult in his thirties behaves like a child under ten years old!
Usually, everyone would have fun sometimes, and they would make a bet, or compete, and the loser would treat him to milk tea, but he said he would not participate because he didn't have enough money in his pocket to invite everyone to drink milk tea with him!
We don’t want the kind of lemonade that costs more than 20 yuan a cup. Lemonade that costs 50 or 6 yuan a cup is still okay! There are only ten or eight people in our line!
The result was this, and he couldn’t even take it out! He said his salary was stuck with his mother, and he only had money in his pocket to buy groceries after get off work!
This is outrageous! In addition to working in the factory, he also works part-time in his spare time! As a result, he left all the money in the hands of his mother. This is not what an adult would do!
When someone asked him what he did after get off work, he said he went home and had dinner with his mother!
Really, don’t think it’s too outrageous, he really said that!
No matter how diligent or good he is, just being a mommy is already very unbearable! "
