Wu Jin nodded repeatedly when he heard this. Since he was in a good mood, he who was usually serious began to joke. “Yu Bing, letting you manage these things is the best thing I’ve done! The fruit tree this time is twice the size of the original one, and so are the others. If I don’t pay any money, Chief Zhao and the other factory directors will probably chase after me and beat me up!”
Yu Bing pursed her lips and snickered.
Yu Bing would occasionally be transferred to work in the commune and county. Wu Jin was already famous for borrowing money from all sorts of places in the county. Things were indeed quite difficult for Wu Jin, so Yu Bing had been asking around about bank loans recently as well.
Yu Bing closed her notebook, stood up, and said to Wu Jin, “Mr. Wu, since you have no objections, that’s the plan for now. I’ll go to the county’s Industrial Commercial Bank and try to get it done as soon as possible.”
Wu Jin replied happily, “Okay, okay, okay. Hurry up and go.”
Yu Bing first went to the dormitory building. When she saw Xu Ling downstairs, she quickly went up and asked, “Hello, Xu Ling. May I know which dormitory Feng Cai is in?”
Xu Ling didn’t expect that Yu Bing knew her name when she had never even talked to her before. She was a little happy and quickly replied enthusiastically, “He’s in room 302. It’s your first time here, so you probably don’t know the way. Let me take you there.”
Yu Bing smiled and replied, “Sorry to trouble you.”
In her previous life, she had been in the same dormitory as Xu Ling and Yu Yan. At that time, she had been beguiled by Yu Yan. In order to play with Yu Yan, she helped and followed Yu Yan wherever she went. At that time, she wondered why Xu Ling had always looked at her strangely. Later on, she realized that Xu Ling thought that she was stupid. Now that she thought about it, she was indeed stupid!
Room 302.
Xu Ling left after bringing Yu Bing to the door. Yu Bing knocked and Yao Nian opened the door.
Yao Nian looked at Yu Bing in surprise. “Yu Bing?” he said in a nasal voice characteristic of a heavy cold. “Are you here for me?”
Yu Bing looked at Yao Nian’s pale face as she replied, “No, I came to look for Feng Cai.”
Ever since Yao Nian had fallen into the water that day, he had developed a serious cold. He had a high fever for several days. Today, he felt slightly better, so he had the time to recall what happened that day. The dizziness he felt after he came out that day was the medicine effect that his mother had mentioned in the letter.
Why had he been drugged? Even if he had drunk from the same teapot, Yu Bing had drunk it before him. The amount she drank should have been heavier. Could it be Yu Bing’s doing? But how could Yu Bing know his plan?!
Yao Nian couldn’t figure it out, so he asked tentatively, “Did you feel any discomfort the day I looked for you?”
Yu Bing frowned and recalled, “Yes, I felt a little dizzy after you left, so I went to sleep. When I woke up, it was already past noon.”
Seeing that Yu Bing didn’t seem to be lying, Yao Nian could only think that something might have gone wrong after Li Ping drugged him. He looked at Yu Bing fixedly.
Yu Bing looked at him calmly. Yao Nian had just recovered from his fever and the headache caused by his cold made him unable to think about anything deeply. Hence, he could only return to the bed and lie down to rest.
Yu Bingxin chuckled to herself. She felt that with her current acting skills, she could win an Oscar.
