Part Three Chapter 129 Starting Over

veteran. With just a few words, she doesn't give anyone a chance to refuse. She slams the responsibility onto her with a definitive "bang.""I see, Lawyer Sun has a powerful team of lawyers. With gene...There's a natural connection between people, maybe because Mia was the only person she saw with black hair like hers, maybe because Song Jingye's snacks sustained her life, maybe because this embassy they had just left provided shelter for her. It felt as if this child had been waiting for her all along. 。Her feelings for Mia had evolved from simple sympathy to a deeper emotional connection. 。Life and work here are lonely and monotonous. At first, she visited various departments every day, participated in activities, and consoled some refugees. Now that the connections have been established, her work is on track and orderly, so most of the time, she works alone in the empty embassy. Luckily, Mia is there to keep her company. 。Teacher Zhang stayed for about a week. In her spare time, she would chat with me about daily life like an elder, and we became both teacher and friend. 。"No wonder you were assigned here, right" asked Teacher Zhang. 。"Wherever I need to go, I want to thank you for giving me this opportunity to be trained." 。She said with a composed and measured tone. 。Zhang Lao smiled and said, "That's too official. Relax a bit, this isn't work time." 。"Zhang smiled, and Chen Ling replied with a smile, saying frankly: 'At the beginning, I did feel wronged. Coming to work here felt like a helpless choice; otherwise, I wouldn't know when I would be shelved by the unit.'" 。But when it actually came, everything started from scratch. There were challenges and learning experiences. I feel like this trip wasn't a waste of time at all. 。"I can see the changes in you. You're more confident and mature now, taking on more responsibility." 。All the officials I visited

spoke highly of you. 。"That's because you guided me well. If I had come here alone, I would have been like a headless fly, not knowing where to start." 。"Mr. Zhang: "You've been here for half a year now, so you should have a pretty good understanding of the situation here. What are your plans for the future work I hope that after your term is up, you will have real achievements to show for your time here." 。It was supposed to be casual conversation, but in just a few words, the topic turned back to work. 。Chen Ning's mind was full of work, so whenever Teacher Zhang asked her a question, she could answer fluently. "When I first arrived, I mainly focused on civilian issues, providing aid to education and healthcare, as well as an orphanage; next, I want to talk to their Ministry of Transportation. As the saying goes in China, 'If you want to get rich, build roads first,' and this proverb applies everywhere." 。The country and the neighboring countries, actually separated by several hundred kilometers, with the farthest distance no more than a thousand kilometers, are isolated because there is no railway connection. 。So I was thinking, could we perhaps build a railway leading to the kingdom, and allow them to use it for free But we would retain some operating rights. 。This is a question of win-win cooperation between China and the Communist Party. 。Teacher Zhang nodded in encouragement: "Very good, if this deal goes through, the whole situation in the country will open up." 。This was also in their five-year plan, but Teacher Zhang's original plan was to wait until the relationship with the other country was more stable before planning it, and she also planned to wait until she went back before dispatching a male colleague to take over. But she didn't expect her to take on this job proactively. It was a bit unexpected because it was a tough nut to crack. 。Building railways is a top priority project,

but the competition is fierce. Anything you can think of, other countries will also be vying for. 。“Zhang Laoshi said ” 。。"Teacher Zhang nodded: 'I fully support you.'" 。"After chatting about work for a while, the topic shifted back to life. Teacher Zhang: "In two months, it will be our Spring Festival. At that time, I'll approve you for a few extra days off to go home and visit your family." 。"Upon hearing this, Chen Ling beamed with joy: "Thank you, Teacher Zhang." 。"

You both have it tough" 。After a week, Zhang Lao left, leaving only her and Mia in the embassy. 。She never had the heart to send Mia to an orphanage. It wasn't that Mia needed her more; it was that she, too, needed Mia. Being alone and struggling in a foreign country, having this companionship eased her loneliness greatly. 。Over the next two months, she focused all her energy on dealing with the Ministry of Transportation, hoping that when she returned home to visit her family, she could hand in a beautiful report. 。Their department head was Kulma, a tall black man who was very serious. Every time she met with him, he would smile politely but his eyes didn't show any warmth. He would brush her off in just a few words and leave her feeling frustrated. After several meetings, there was no progress at all. 。At the same time, two other diplomats from different countries came to look for Kulma. Because the country is too small, many of the resident diplomats are often lone wolves. 。Although they competed with each other, there was also a strange sense of mutual respect. After leaving Kurma's office, the three could still chat. 。

Chen Ning didn't talk much, occasionally saying a few words, but most of the time she just listened to them criticize Kulma, and then at their next meeting, she would have a smile on her face again. 。Kulma: "Don't think

just because you insult me, I can't hear you" 。"

This is rare, he was a little approachable for the first time. " 。

Those two diplomats laughed and denied it outright, Chen Ling smiled silently beside them. 。Kulma: “It’s not that we want to make things difficult for you. Our country is poor and backward, and we have just gone through a civil war. We are riddled with holes and every step we take requires careful consideration.” 。You are most welcome to build railroads for us free of charge, but your terms are too harsh. This is not aid, but exploitation. 。His words left the three people present in silence. 。Kulma continued, "You formally submit a proposal next week, and we will discuss it internally at a meeting." 。This is going to be bid out, let's see who has the most suitable conditions. 。Chen Ning, this period of time, in addition to dealing with Kurma Zhou, also asked Song Jingye to help her find a lot of railway construction-related materials to study domestically. 。Song Jingye not only helped her find information but also connected her with an engineer from the Iron and Steel Construction Bureau for a video call, providing personal guidance. 。Whenever she needs his help, he never just does 100%, he always gives her a 120% surprise. 。During the video call this evening, she was deeply moved: "Thank you, husband." 。"

Song Jingye: “Verbal thanks don’t count, I'll properly thank you when I get back."> 。Chen Ling blushed instantly: "Then, isn't what I owe a bit much" 。"Their video calls were a mix of serious discussions and intimate whispers, just like any other young couple. They shared the same jokes, secrets, and moments of tenderness that define relationships. But the distance between them meant their words always lacked the warmth of a real embrace." 。Chen Ning didn't tell Song Jingye that she had a holiday to visit her family during the Spring Festival, wanting to surprise him. 。She didn't mention it, and Song Jingye didn't ask. He was afraid that if she mentioned it, she wouldn't be able to bear it and would add to her psychological burden. 。
