When they returned from Yunnan, just a week later, a cluster of infectious disease cases was discovered in the agricultural wholesale market.
Originally, they planned to start preparing for the wedding after coming back. But now that the infectious disease has broken out again, the city's prevention and control measures have been upgraded another level, and the catering industry is prohibited from holding large - scale gatherings.
Fortunately, Ah Hai was刑事拘留 by the police due to the kidnapping case.
Qiao Yinuo heard Hou Lei talk about He Jing again. It was said that He Jing accompanied her parents to the agricultural wholesale market some time ago. Unfortunately, all three of them were diagnosed with the infectious disease and have now been sent to the hospital.
Although Qiao Yinuo was most afraid of new cases at this critical moment, she was actually both happy and worried deep down. She was happy that He Jing and Ah Hai had received their just deserts; she was worried that under such a severe situation, He Jing was completely ruined.
However, Qiao Yinuo's prediction came true. Hou Lei sent her several screenshots. The general content of the screenshots was a report about He Jing. The content of the report was simply unbearable.
Thinking of He Jing, once a popular actress, now reduced to being the target of veiled insults. All she wanted was Luo Yize's true heart, but Luo Yize was already disheartened towards her. But naive He Jing planned step by step. In the end, she hurt Luo Yize, Qiao Yinuo, and made Ah Hai lose his qualification as a father and herself as a mother. As a result, she was forever trapped in her own dream.
Qiao Yinuo put down her phone and sighed, remembering the most familiar saying:
"What is destined to be yours will eventually come to you; what is not, you should not force."
For the past few days, Qiao Yinuo had been cooped up at home. The draft papers on the table were scribbled messily. Perhaps, Qiao Yinuo had been affected by the deeds of He Jing and Ah Hai. She had hardly ever thought that Ah Hai, as her man, could actually help his girlfriend pursue her ex - boyfriend. What kind of man was this?
If it were her, seeing her man asking her to help pursue her ex, she would definitely break up with him without hesitation.
This kind of person, Qiao Yinuo had never seen before. He simply didn't deserve to be called a man.
The infectious disease epidemic was gradually brought under control after a month. At this time, the scorching heat of July arrived.
After coming out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, normally at this time, they should have been at the restaurant. But they still couldn't get rid of the reporters' tracking.
Although it wasn't getting dark yet, since it was summer and it got dark quite late, the Civil Affairs Bureau should have closed by now.
The reporters blocked the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau. As soon as Luo Yize came out, they swarmed up.
The special assistant had parked the car near the Civil Affairs Bureau. She and Hou Lei got out of the car at the same time.
Seeing the crowd at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau at a glance, she called Luo Yize.
"A Ze, are you done?"
"Done. I'll come right away."
On Luo Yize's end, the environment was very noisy. Facing the swarming reporters, he and Qiao Yinuo were instantly separated.
He grabbed Qiao Yinuo's hand and rushed out of the reporters' encirclement. But when they reached the car, a reporter still chased after them with a microphone.
Qiao Yinuo heard someone calling her name. When she turned around, she found it was her old classmate whom she hadn't seen for years.
The reporter put away the microphone while saying, "You're amazing! You've gotten this far with the big star?"
Qiao Yinuo wanted to shake her head but suddenly felt embarrassed. Since the matter was already known, there was no need to hide it anymore.
She replied shyly, "Yeah, it's just fate."
Then Qiao Yinuo asked, "What are you doing here?"
"Haha, I'm here to interview you guys. Considering our years of classmate relationship, I won't interview you. I'll write a really wonderful report when I get back!"
Qiao Yinuo thought that no matter how good a classmate was, once they became an entertainment reporter, they would always make up some gossip in the news.
Just as she was about to leave, the reporter asked Qiao Yinuo again, "Sister Nuo, are you still working at the newspaper?"
"No, I was fired for some reason."
"What are you doing now?"
"I'm a screenwriter."
After hearing what Qiao Yinuo said, there was an envious smile on her face. "You're amazing! When your movie becomes popular one day, I must interview you!"
Saying that, they greeted each other. Then, accompanied by the special assistant and Hou Lei, Qiao Yinuo and Luo Yize got in the car.
In the car, Luo Yize looked at the special assistant embarrassedly, thinking that if she had come earlier, would they have been blocked by reporters at the door for an interview?
When the special assistant's car turned a corner, Luo Yize asked her, "When did you get your driver's license?"
"Last year."
"You don't need to drive in the future."
He turned to look at Qiao Yinuo in the passenger seat. "Can you drive?"
Qiao Yinuo shook her head repeatedly. In fact, she had already gotten her driver's license, but she hadn't touched a car for several years, and her driving skills had become rusty.
Moreover, when Qiao Yinuo was learning to drive, she failed the second subject of the driving test four times. Either she crossed the line when reversing into the garage or exceeded the standard when passing the poles. It was only when the coach gave her a second chance on the fifth try that she passed. Just thinking about her driving - learning experience, Qiao Yinuo suspected that she was as stupid as a pig. The coach's rough shouts could still echo in her ears.
So when others asked her if she could drive, Qiao Yinuo would rather say she couldn't than be forced into the driver's seat.
"Aren't you already licensed?" Hou Lei beside her unexpectedly revealed the truth.
"Do you deliberately want me to cause an accident?" Qiao Yinuo retorted.
While Hou Lei was secretly smiling mischievously, Luo Yize interrupted, "I'm not afraid of an accident. I'll teach you to drive."
This shocked everyone in the car.
After all, it was Luo Yize, her idol, who took such good care of Qiao Yinuo. In fact, this had always been the case. Moreover, it was Luo Yize who comforted Qiao Yinuo during her lowest period.
Qiao Yinuo's good fortune had exceeded that of other fans, and her relationship with Luo Yize had gone beyond her imagination.
By this time, the car had arrived at the barbecue restaurant of General Manager Zhao's son. When they got out of the car, General Manager Zhao's son came to greet them in person.
"Congratulations to you guys! You must inform me when you hold the wedding!"
General Manager Zhao's son's personality was still as straightforward as the first time they met.
