The next day, Zhou Bingkun took a day off and accompanied Zheng Juan to the timber processing plant to report for duty.

According to Zheng Juan, she had never been to a timber processing plant before and was a little scared. She felt more at ease knowing that someone could accompany her.

On the way to the timber processing plant, Zheng Juan was filled with anticipation and nervousness. Looking at Zhou Bingkun accompanying her, she felt a surge of sweetness in her heart.

Yesterday, she suddenly hugged Zhou Bingkun. Although she didn't say anything, the meaning was clear: she liked Zhou Bingkun.

The fact that Zhou Bingkun accepted her invitation today and accompanied her to the timber processing plant shows that he doesn't dislike or reject her, which is why Zheng Juan is even happier.

Having a job and having someone you like who likes you back—that's double happiness!

"Zheng Juan, I have two friends who work at a timber processing plant. After you report for duty, I'll introduce them to you. If you encounter any problems at the timber processing plant, just ask them for help..." Zhou Bingkun reassured Zheng Juan, worried that she might be scared.

"Yes, thank you, Bingkun." Zheng Juan nodded gently with a faint smile on her face. She was very happy that Zhou Bingkun was able to consider these things for her.

"Hey, there's no need to thank me. Let me tell you, when you work in a factory, you have to be careful..." Zhou Bingkun told Zheng Juan about some situations she might encounter while working in a factory.

Zheng Juan nodded obediently to the side, listening to whatever Zhou Bingkun said.

Regardless of whether Zhou Bingkun had ulterior motives, she accepted everything he said.

As they were talking, the two arrived at the timber processing plant. Zheng Juan took out the certificate issued by the street office, and the factory did not make any excuses, after all, this was a very normal and formal procedure.

So after busying herself with all the work, Zheng Juan became a handyman in the timber processing factory's canteen, earning 17 yuan a month, 5 mao less than Zhou Bingkun.

However, Zhou Bingkun has been working at the soy sauce factory for almost a year now. In a while, his salary will rise to 23 yuan, which will be higher than Zheng Juan's current salary.

After Zheng Juan completed the formalities and became a worker at the timber processing plant, Zhou Bingkun took her to find Sun Ganchao and Xiao Guoqing.

When Zhou Bingkun found Sun Ganchao and Xiao Guoqing, the two of them were carrying logs.

Seeing their work, Zhou Bingkun suddenly realized that his work in the slag removal workshop was much easier than theirs.

"National Day, catch up!" Zhou Bingkun shouted at the two of them.

"Hey? Bingkun, what brings you here? Didn't you go to work?" Xiao Guoqing's face lit up with joy when he saw Zhou Bingkun.

Sun Ganchao noticed Zheng Juan behind Zhou Bingkun, then looked at Zhou Bingkun and a knowing smile appeared on his face: "Bingkun, what's going on? And who is this?"

"Hehe, this is my friend Zheng Juan. She came to the timber processing plant today to report for duty and became a general worker in your factory canteen. You two should take good care of Zheng Juan when you have time," Zhou Bingkun introduced her generously.

"Hello, Guoqing and Ganchao. I'm Zheng Juan." Zheng Juan greeted Zhou Bingkun and Sun Ganchao.

"Hello, Zheng Juan."

"Zheng Juan, if you need anything at the factory in the future, just come to us. We're Bingkun's childhood friends, his best friends."

Sun Ganchao and Xiao Guoqing both patted their chests and made guarantees.

However, since it was working hours, Sun Ganchao and Xiao Guoqing didn't have time to chat with Zhou Bingkun. After exchanging a few words, they continued carrying logs.

After changing her clothes, Zheng Juan officially started working at the timber processing plant.

After giving Zheng Juan some more instructions, Zhou Bingkun left the timber processing plant and then went to the soy sauce factory to continue working.

Zheng Juan is a very diligent person. After arriving at the cafeteria, she quickly started working.

Zheng Juan's diligence, while not enough to make her immediately fit in, also prevented her from being ostracized by the cafeteria staff.

When it was lunchtime, Zheng Juan was even assigned to serve meals to the workers at a specific window.

Zheng Juan held a spoon, her face beaming with happiness.

Zheng Juan is beautiful and always has a smile on her face. She seems very gentle and easy to talk to, so many young men specifically go to Zheng Juan's window to queue up.

Zheng Juan served food to everyone with grace and poise. When someone tried to talk to her, she responded calmly and appropriately, handling the situation with great poise and grace.

That makes sense. Zheng Juan started selling candied hawthorns with Grandma Zheng when she was very young. Even when she got older, she sold candied hawthorns by herself. What kind of people hadn't she seen?

"Huh? It's you? You're a factory worker too? I've never seen you before."

Just after Zheng Juan finished serving food to one person, the next person who came up to get food looked at Zheng Juan with a surprised expression.

Upon hearing the other person's words, Zheng Juan subconsciously looked up. When she saw the other person's face, her expression was slightly surprised, but she quickly regained her composure.

Zheng Juan never expected that Tu Zhiqiang was also from a timber processing plant; it was such a coincidence.

"I just started working at the factory today. Thank you for your help last time, comrade," Zheng Juan said politely.

"No need to thank me, it was nothing." Tu Zhiqiang waved his hand with a smile, got his food, and left.

Seeing that Tu Zhiqiang left without saying much, Zheng Juan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but her heart still couldn't help but jump.

The main reason was that what Zhou Bingkun had told her was truly terrifying.

Rumors that Tu Zhiqiang was not a good person, that he liked men, and that he had his eye on her had given Zheng Juan a bad impression of him, which is why she was so afraid when she saw him again.

"Zheng Juan, are you getting your food here?"

Xiao Guoqing and Sun Ganchao lined up and came to Zheng Juan, greeting her with smiles.

"Yeah, I'm getting food here, what are you planning to eat?" Zheng Juan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Xiao Guoqing and Sun Ganchao, and felt a little safer. After all, these two were Zhou Bingkun's childhood friends, and in Zheng Juan's heart, they were trustworthy people.

"This one, I want this one."

"Here you go!" Zheng Juan scooped up a large spoonful of vegetables and poured it into Xiao Guoqing's rice bowl.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Guoqing's eyes lit up. He hadn't expected to receive such treatment, and immediately gave Zheng Juan a thumbs up.

Sun Ganchao, who came after him, also enjoyed the same treatment as Xiao Guoqing.

Then, because of these two large spoonfuls of food, Sun Ganchao and Xiao Guoqing completely accepted Zheng Juan.
