Chapter 59

With a "crack," Zhang Dong's ankle was back in place. He wiped the moisture from his forehead, unsure if it was rain or sweat.

"Uncle Niu, please help my sister change her clothes! I'm going to take a shower!"

A moment later, after Zhang Dong finished his shower, he came out wearing a T-shirt and shorts. Next, it was Zhang Zhaodi's turn to shower.

Her ankle had just been realigned, so she didn't dare to put much weight on it and could only walk by holding onto the wall.

Seeing this, Zhang Dong stepped forward and supported her.

"An injury takes a hundred days to heal. Be careful when you shower. I specially moved a chair in there for you. You can sit on it while you wash."

Zhang Zhaodi's face turned red, and she nodded without saying a word.

After entering the bathroom, she carefully closed the door and leaned against it, taking a deep breath.

After the awkwardness earlier, Zhang Zhaodi was really a bit afraid of close contact with Zhang Dong.

It wasn't that she disliked him; she just hadn't figured out how to face him and whether to tell him the contents of the letter.

After calming down, Zhang Zhaodi prepared to take a shower.

However, when she saw the chair that Zhang Dong had specially moved for her, her face turned red instantly.

The chair was quite sturdy, but on it were the wet clothes that Zhang Dong had just taken off.

On top of the pile was a men's undergarment!

In the living room, Zhang Dong's buttocks had barely touched the sofa when he jumped up as if pricked by a needle.

He turned his head sharply toward the bathroom: Oh no! The clothes I took off are still on the chair in the bathroom!

If I remember correctly, the top one should be... his undergarment!

In the bathroom, Zhang Zhaodi's face was flushed, like a ripe red apple.

Her beautiful eyes were filled with shyness, confusion, and a hint of anger.

Zhang Dong is so over the top!

He even said the chair was specially moved for her. Could it be... he wanted her to see what was on the chair?

When Zhang Zhaodi came out of the shower, Zhang Dong hurriedly ran over to greet her, ostensibly to help her back to the house to rest, but actually to see if she was angry.

Seeing Zhang Zhaodi's expression, Zhang Dong's heart sank. She was really angry!

Zhang Zhaodi's face was cold, as if Zhang Dong owed her a lot of money. She stared straight ahead, not looking at Zhang Dong at all.

However, she didn't refuse his support, and the two of them walked into the house without a word.

After sending Zhang Zhaodi back to the room, Zhang Dong laughed dryly and said,

"Rest well, I'll go out first!"

As he ran to the door, Zhang Zhaodi's voice came from behind him.

"The chair you prepared for me is really nice!"

This made Zhang Dong almost fall over in shock.

He turned his head, scratching the back of his head awkwardly.

"Um, I was in a hurry to come out and forgot about the clothes."

Zhang Zhaodi's expression remained unchanged: "I've already washed your clothes. Go and hang them up!"

Zhang Dong nodded hurriedly: "Ah... Okay!"

For a moment, Zhang Dong didn't know what to say.

Saying "thank you" seemed unnecessary.

How many times had Zhang Zhaodi washed his clothes for him since they were young?

Although they had grown up and things were different now,

But... it's not a big deal, right? It's just an undergarment!

Opening his mouth, Zhang Dong could only say, "I'll go now!"

With that, he fled into the bathroom.

After he left, Zhang Zhaodi also let out a sigh of relief.

Her earlier expression was all an act.

At the moment, Zhang Zhaodi really didn't know how to face Zhang Dong, and she didn't know how to face him after telling him the contents of the letter.

So she had to do this, to try to restore their relationship to its previous state.

However... Zhang Zhaodi felt a vague sense of loss in her heart.

Zhang Dong came to the bathroom and saw the clean clothes.

Especially when he saw the undergarment, his expression became complicated.

He remembered that after his shower, when he washed the undergarment, there were still some stains that couldn't be explained.

However, Zhang Dong couldn't get them off, so he gave up.

But now, the undergarment was spotless, indicating that Zhang Zhaodi had definitely scrubbed it thoroughly!

Recalling Zhang Zhaodi's words when he left, Zhang Dong couldn't help but take a deep breath.

At that moment, he really wanted to shout to the sky: "I really didn't mean to, I just forgot... Ah!"

This incident was like a small interlude in life. With the "conversation" between Zhang Zhaodi and Zhang Dong over, their relationship returned to normal.

The next day, Vice President Ma brought the brewing technology supervisor to work.

This was a young man in his late twenties, with a buzz cut, glasses, and an average height. He looked very gentle and honest.

Just one glance, and Zhang Dong had a good impression of this technology supervisor.

At this moment, Vice President Ma patted Zhou Zhongcheng's shoulder and introduced him with a smile.

"Brother Zhang, this is Zhou Zhongcheng. He's very skilled and very honest. He's still unmarried, so he can live next to the brewery without affecting the brewing process!"

Zhang Dong nodded.

He was really satisfied with this person.

He was skilled and could stay at the brewery long-term, which was exactly what Zhang Dong needed as a technology supervisor!

As for where Zhou Zhongcheng would live, Zhang Dong didn't need to worry about it.

Vice President Ma had already arranged for the village chief of Xishan Village, Li Kuishan, to rent a small courtyard for Zhou Zhongcheng, who could move in at any time.

After a brief communication, Zhou Zhongcheng took up his post, getting to know the workers and understanding the previous brewing methods at the brewery.

Vice President Ma chatted with Zhang Dong for a while but didn't stay long because of the busy affairs at the restaurant.

With the technology supervisor in place, Zhang Dong also needed to show his appreciation.

Zhang Dong first let Zhou Zhongcheng rest in the rented courtyard. At noon, he took him to a small restaurant in Xishan Village, ordered a few hearty dishes, and brought a case of beer, treating him to a big meal.

Zhou Zhongcheng was indeed very shy. Although he was older than Zhang Dong, he was very introverted and didn't like to talk much.

However, he was a good person. After a few bottles of beer, with Zhang Dong's intentional guidance, the two quickly became friends.

Zhou Zhongcheng had a low alcohol tolerance, and a few bottles of beer were enough to make him tipsy.

Zhang Dong sent him back to his place and then slowly walked back, starting to think about getting a better mode of transportation.

Riding a tricycle to deliver goods didn't bother Zhang Dong.

However, when guests came, he couldn't greet them on a tricycle, could he?

For example, today, it was fortunate that there was a small restaurant in Xishan Village.

If there wasn't a restaurant, Zhang Dong would have had to take Zhou Zhongcheng to a restaurant in town.

Imagining himself pedaling a tricycle with Zhou Zhongcheng sitting behind him, both of them huffing and puffing on their way to town, Zhang Dong didn't even want to think about it.

Zhang Dong considered getting an electric tricycle or even a diesel-powered large tricycle.

This would make it easier to transport goods and allow him to carry more.
