CHAPTER 379: CHAPTER 379: SURPRISE

A few days later, Gu Lingling unexpectedly saw Yang Yunhai, who had been missing for a long time.

"Brother Yang, you’re back?" Gu Lingling said with delight.

Her voice carried a joy and surprise that even she hadn’t noticed, "When did you get back? Brother Yang, I have good news to tell you, I’m going to work at the transformer factory."

She had just returned from the transformer factory, and the exam results were already posted. But to her amazement, although she came in first place, she wasn’t assigned to the data room or human resources department she wanted but instead went into the engineering department.

The engineering department, which was super hard to get into and never hired externally, actually wanted her.

She didn’t want to go to the engineering department, she still wanted to take the college entrance exam.

Gu Lingling thought of He Jijun. He was the boss of the engineering department. When she got back that day, she told Grandpa Yao what He Jijun said and also explained why she didn’t want to join the engineering department.

Gu Lingling thought she would still go to those two departments as planned, but ultimately, she couldn’t escape going to the engineering department.

She didn’t like it. What to do?

The engineering department was a place where only top university graduates were assigned, what qualifications did she have!

"Hmm, I know," Yang Yunhai said with a doting smile.

After months of not seeing her, the little girl was even more beautiful than before, especially those bright eyes, clear and pure, stirring an itch in his heart.

No wonder Yang Yunfeng had an eye on her.

"Look at what I brought you." Yang Yunhai swung the bag in his hand, "A reward for you."

"White Rabbit!" Gu Lingling looked at the things in the bag with delight.

Her favorite White Rabbit milk candy!

"Thank you, Brother Yang." Gu Lingling took a candy and put it in her mouth, savoring it contentedly with her eyes squinted.

In her past life, whether she was happy or sad, she would buy herself some White Rabbit milk candy. It seemed that eating it made her happier when she was joyful and shortened the sadness when she was down.

Seeing her enjoying it so much, the corners of Yang Yunhai’s eyes curved, and his mouth slightly lifted.

Looks like he chose the right thing to give today.

"Oh, Brother Yang, my grandma has something for you." Gu Lingling suddenly remembered the wool they had snatched with Grandma Yao at the department store last autumn, which was later knitted into a sweater.

When she finished knitting it and gave it to Grandma Yao, she specifically asked who the sweater was for, and Grandma Yao said it was for Yang Yunhai.

"I’ve seen him a few times, never seen any clothes made by his family." Grandma Yao had said at the time, "He saved your and Baobao’s life, and we want to do what little we can to repay him."

Unfortunately, after the sweater was made, Yang Yunhai hadn’t returned, and now seeing him, Gu Lingling finally remembered the sweater in her room.

He should be able to wear it for a few days.

"This is for me?" Yang Yunhai raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised, "Thank you, Grandma, I’ve never worn a sweater like this."

From childhood to adulthood, this should be the first hand-knitted sweater he received.

His grandma wasn’t into this at all, and as for his old mother, better left unsaid; it seemed like she only fulfilled the duty of giving birth to him, never cared about anything else, let alone knitting a sweater for him.

"You should thank our Lingling for this," Grandma Yao said with a smile, "This girl was afraid knitting would hurt my eyes, so she did it all."

Yang Yunhai, hearing Grandma Yao’s words, was overjoyed.

Surprise after surprise kept coming.

He didn’t expect to receive another gift from the little girl so soon.

Uh... the sportswear before was her first gift.

You Ma: Grandma Yao, do you know you’ve just sold out your granddaughter like this?
