Just as Zhu Ruiyan was still immersed in her thoughts, Li Shuang suddenly raised her head and looked at her: ”Rui Yan, which stage did you come from?” Li Shuang's words made her feel rather surprised, she never thought that Li Shuang would actually ask such a sensitive question.

”Huh?” Zhu Ruiyan looked at Li Shuang at a loss. Dai Lulu, who was at the side, also spoke out: ”Don't hide it, someone like you who was transferred in at the last moment definitely has a backer, and it should be very tough as well.”

Zhu Ruiyan never thought that public officials would actually like to chat about gossips like this. She merely forced a smile on her face and quickly looked down at the document.

Li Shuang then said to Dai Lulu: ”Lulu, I have told you many times, there are some things that I can't explain myself. I can only understand why you can't remember.” After that, the office returned to its previous tranquil state and no one spoke anymore.

Zhu Ruiyan had been familiarizing herself with the process of handling the letters throughout the day, but she was still able to think clearly and move rather quickly. With Li Shuang's and Dai Lulu's guidance, she was already more or less familiar with the process. After work, she took the bus to the supermarket to buy some ingredients.

Along the way, Zhu Ruiyan had been thinking about how much Qin Yizhao had helped him with her work this time, and how she could express her thanks to her. However, a great figure like Qin Yizhao should not be bad at all, which was why it gave her such a headache.

Zhu Ruiyan usually had the habit of cooking at home, a standard dish and a soup. Just as Zhu Ruiyan was busy working in the kitchen, someone knocked on her door. Zhu Ruiyan looked at the clock on the wall. Who exactly would knock on the door? When she opened the door and saw Qin Yizhao standing outside, she was a little surprised.

Qin Yizhao was wearing a suit and leather shoes, it was obvious that he had just gotten off work. The shopping bag in his hand seemed out of place. Zhu Ruiyan's right hand was still holding onto the spatula, she asked with a puzzled look: ”Chairman Qin?”

Qin Yizhao directly placed the shopping bag in his hand into Zhu Ruiyan's hands, then took a shoe cover from the shoe shelf and put it on before entering the house. When he entered the room, he glanced left and right to look clean and tidy, as if he was living alone.

Qin Yizhao very naturally sat on the sofa, he untied his tie and leaned on the sofa. Zhu Ruiyan closed the door and then asked puzzledly: ”Chairman Qin, how did you know I lived here?”

”Last time I brought you home, I saw that there was a light in this room. I guessed that you lived here, so it turned out to be the case.” After Qin Yizhao finished speaking, he looked at Zhu Ruiyan who was still standing there in a daze.

Only now did Zhu Ruiyan realize the true purpose of Qin Yizhao's visit. Since he had settled his own matters and should be grateful to him, he decided to make a meal for him. Therefore, Zhu Ruiyan nodded his head: ”Do you have any special requests for these dishes?”

Qin Yizhao thought for a few seconds, then said: ”Fish needs to be made into squirrel fish, anything else is up to you.” Zhu Ruiyan brought the ingredients from the shopping bag into the kitchen and brewed a cup of tea for Qin Yizhao.

”Chairman Qin, please drink some tea. I'll go to the kitchen to cook.” After Zhu Ruiyan finished speaking, he entered the kitchen. She opened the bag and discovered that the fish was not taken care of.

Qin Yizhao would occasionally glance at Zhu Ruiyan from the corner of his eyes. This woman was really special. Many girls didn't know how to cook. Not only did they know how to cook, but they also knew how to take care of the fish very well. They were completely different from the pretentious girls.

She turned around and coincidentally saw Qin Yizhao, who was standing behind her. She was at a loss as she said, ”Chairman Qin, actually, you can take the fish back home next time you buy them after you take care of them in the supermarket.”

”Not as clean as my own.” Qin Yizhao's answer made Zhu Ruiyan feel a little helpless.

As she kept her head lowered, she did not forget to thank Qin Yizhao, ”Chairman Qin, I really have to thank you for helping me with my work. I really don't know what to say anymore.”

Although Zhu Ruiyan did not ask for the exact salary, he knew from Li Shuang and Dai Lulu that this work was done on holidays ranging from 9 to 5. Of course, the additional benefits were enough for her. Zhu Ruiyan was already very satisfied with her work, especially with her work.

”Then how are you going to thank me?” Qin Yizhao's face suddenly revealed a playful smile, which made Zhu Ruiyan's face turn slightly hot.

Zhu Ruiyan hurriedly lowered his head, saying, ”Thank you for preparing this meal.” Seeing that Zhu Ruiyan's distressed look wasn't as pretentious as she thought anymore, with a cute look on her face, Qin Yizhao returned back to the sofa.

Not long later, Zhu Ruiyan had already prepared food for two people, and the familiar fragrance of food entered Qin Yizhao's nose. He sat down at the dining table and started to eat with the chopsticks. It was just as delicious as before.

”Chairman Qin, I still want to thank you. You really did me a big favor.” Zhu Ruiyan had finally solved the problem of a working life.
