Chapter Thirty, Heavy Love

The plane arrived at the Nanjiang Airport on time. When Ye Yan got off the plane, he felt like he was enveloped in a sweltering heat, and even his shirt was soaked with sweat.

After leaving the airport, there were only a few steps.

Ye Yan saw an unmarked military jeep. Standing next to the jeep was a man with a few slanted scars on his face and a somewhat sinister look.

This person is none other than Liao Zhong.

Head of South China Region.

Ye Yan saw the man.

Men also saw him.

Ye Yan waved his hand, "Uncle Liao."

"Xiaoye..."

The man lowered his peaked cap and nodded towards Ye Yan with a vicissitude of voice.

The door of the jeep opened and the two of them got in one after another.

After getting in the car, Liao Zhong didn't rush to light a fire. He threw a cigarette to Ye Yan, then lit one for himself and said slowly,

"I haven't seen you in two years. You've gained weight. It seems that the food provided by Tianxiahui is good and the food provided to you is not bad. The brat you used to be is now a grown man."

He was a little sad.

He remembered that when he first met Ye Yan, he was still a young man. Now, in a flash, he has become so popular in the alien world.

Time is really hard to describe.

"Okay."

Ye Yan took the cigarette with a smile and lit it.

He and Liao Zhong have known each other for several years, starting from when they were Chen Duo's sparring partners.

Liao Zhong was also impatient. He held a cigarette in his mouth and couldn't hold back after taking two puffs. When he asked what he meant, "Are you here this time because of Duo'er's affairs?"

"Um."

Ye Yan looked at him and nodded.

"Did you come all the way from Jinmen because of Duo'er becoming a temporary worker?"

He repeated it again.

"right."

Ye Yan nodded and smoked a cigarette.

"Uncle Liao, you're busy, so I won't waste my time. Actually, I have only two purposes for coming here this time. First, to see Duo'er. Second, I want to know why she became a temporary worker."

Liao Zhong sighed, "Do you know all these things? Xu Si told you, right?"

Liao Zhong didn't seem to be very surprised by Ye Yan's words. He laughed and scolded, "That bastard Xu Si, I shouldn't have told him in the first place. This guy really doesn't know what to say. He says everything."

He took off his peaked cap, revealing the thinning hair underneath, feeling a little melancholy.

Ye Yan didn't pay attention to his laughter and scolding, but straightened his face and said with rare seriousness,

"Uncle Liao, tell me the truth. When did Duo'er become a temporary worker, and how long has she been a temporary worker? Why don't I know about this? I've never heard of it."

Liao Zhong hesitated for a moment, then answered these questions one by one, "Duoduo became a temporary worker in the second month after you left."

"so early?"

Ye Yan was also a little shocked.

He never thought that Chen Duo would become a temporary worker for so long, but he had never heard of it.

"As for why you haven't heard it, the reason is that I didn't tell Duoduo not to tell others."

"Since you can ask about temporary workers, you should know more or less. Temporary workers are directly under the responsibility of the person in charge. This is confidential. Naturally, the fewer people know about it, the better."

Ye Yan was silent.

He also knew that this matter should be kept secret, and there was absolutely nothing wrong with what Liao Zhong said, but he just couldn't resist it and felt like an outsider.

After pondering for a long time, Ye Yan asked again, "Why did you choose Duoduo... You should know about her situation?"

"Of course I know."

Liao Zhong smiled bitterly: "It was precisely because I knew her situation that I asked her to become a temporary worker under me. Although this job is not glorious, it is more free than ordinary employees."

"It suits her too."

Hearing this, Ye Yan fell silent.

He couldn't remember clearly. This was the first time he had been silent since today. He picked up a cigarette impatiently, but he touched his pocket but couldn't find the light. Liao Zhong handed it over at the right time.

"What did Duoduo say?"

"She didn't say."

Liao Zhong shook his head, "The whole thing was decided by me alone. I hope he can go outside and see the world in the eyes of ordinary people, the simplicity and... beauty!"

When Liao Zhong said this, his expression was complicated, and his eyes shone with love, just like an old father having a headache for his daughter.

See this...

Ye Yan fell silent again.

He felt that his thoughts seemed a little too one-sided...and too simple.

Liao Zhong was a person who had known Chen Duo earlier than him and was also very good to Chen Duo.

It is impossible for him to have bad intentions towards Chen Duo.

But there are some things that Ye Yan cannot ignore at all. This is exactly the purpose of his coming here.

"Uncle Liao, you should know better than me the nature of temporary workers, and you also know how dirty they are. Duoduo is a girl as blank as a sheet of paper, but you let her be a tool in your hands? Is this appropriate?"

In Ye Yan's eyes, the position of temporary worker is a double-edged sword. It does not need to be recorded in the roster, and it has greater freedom and less control, but it will also become more like a tool.

The smile on Liao Zhong's face became even bitterer.

He was silent for a long time, and then he said in a hoarse voice, "I know better than you..."

"I know you still..."

Ye Yan blurted out, but mid-sentence, he was interrupted by Liao Zhong, "Xiaoye, I know you are doing this for Duoduo's good, so why don't I know?"

"If she cannot become a temporary worker and gain the trust of the company's upper management, given her physical condition, she will be like a bird in a cage, unable to see what the outside world is like for the rest of her life."

"Do you want her to do that?"

Ye Yan did not answer, but Liao Zhong said sadly: "If I have a choice, I don't want Duoduo to become a temporary worker at all. I hope she can get married and have funerals like an ordinary person, and be like an ordinary person."

Live a peaceful and stable life."

"But can she?"

Can it? Is it possible?

A word that couldn't be simpler, but it was like a thorn, piercing deeply into Ye Yan's heart, making him even breathe heavily.

Liao Zhong: "Some people are born with a heavy fate. Those are things that cannot be changed. But I don't want Duo'er to sink in this life. She is still very young..."

Liao Zhong's words left Ye Yan speechless.

"I'm actually very happy that you came all the way here for Duo'er, but it's actually quite good for her to be like this now. At least she has a certain degree of freedom. This should be what she wants most."

"Uncle Liao..."

Ye Yan was also deeply shocked by Liao Zhong's words. He had never thought about things at this level, let alone thought that Liao Zhong expected Chen Duo so much, no less than his reborn parents.

Seeing Ye Yan's appearance, Liao Zhong couldn't help but laugh, laughing happily, "Say something you shouldn't say in my position."

"I've told you a lot of truths, but in fact, what's so great about me is that I'm useless. If I'm strong enough and can even influence the company, then Duo'er still needs to live like this?

"

"But there's nothing we can do."

Liao Zhong's smile gradually faded.

Hearing this, Ye Yan felt so confused that he didn't know what to say to Liao Zhong.

But Liao Zhong waved his hand, "Forget it, what are you doing with all this? Let's take you to see Duo'er first. You just happened to be here. Today I will give Duo'er a special day off and let you stay with her for the whole day.
