Chapter 99 Divorce is a done deal
Qiao Xu didn't expect Tang Jingqiao to ask this question out of the blue. He paused for a moment and said, "So what? I just admire her talent."
Although he said this, there was an unnatural look in his eyes.
Tang Jingqiao has always been sensitive, and asked again: "Are you really just appreciating her talent? I've never seen you treat a lesbian like this before."
Qiao Xu crushed the cigarette butt irritably, "No, do you know me well? Why are you nagging like an old lady?"
Mu Youwei winked at Tang Jingqiao, signaling her to stop talking.
Tang Jingqiao smiled and changed her original words. She rarely spoke well of Lin Anan. "Lin Anan is not only talented, but also very talented. Maybe you don't know that she was the Japanese translator for the international reports of the Northwest Army Special Operations Battalion."
"Oh? She also speaks Japanese."
"I heard that there's more than that. She can speak several foreign languages."
Qiao Xu curled the corners of his lips, "You are really versatile."
Tang Jingqiao also poured herself a cup of tea, but she was observing Qiao Xu's expression from the corner of her eyes, "Yes, she is a worker-peasant-soldier college student, and she is quite capable. It's a pity..."
"What a pity?"
"What a pity that he is a sickly person."
Mu Youwei frowned slightly, "I see she is very thin, is she in poor health? That's indeed a pity."
Tang Jingqiao rolled her eyes again and sighed, "Maybe it's because of this reason. It's not easy for her. Captain Chu wants to divorce her and has already submitted the divorce application."
Just enough.
She had let out the hook.
Qiao Xu sat up straight suddenly, "What did you say?"
Tang Jingqiao pretended not to know his intentions and acted puzzled, "Ah? I said she was in poor health and Captain Chu wanted to divorce her..."
Qiao Xu's eyes suddenly became sharp, staring at Tang Jingqiao closely, as if he wanted to see through her: "Are you serious?" His voice unconsciously rose a few notes, revealing an eagerness that was hard to conceal.
Tang Jingqiao was secretly happy.
She guessed right!
He still maintained an innocent look on his face and shrugged lightly: "I also heard it from others. This matter has been circulating in the military compound for a while.
But it is understandable that Captain Chu's family has no elders to take care of, and there are two children to take care of. Lin Anan is really not suitable for living there."
As she spoke, she kept an eye on Qiao Xu's expression. Seeing that his brows were furrowing more and more tightly, she knew that this had really hit him.
"For details, you can ask Lu Qing. He has a good relationship with Captain Chu..."
Before Tang Jingqiao finished speaking, Qiao Xuteng stood up suddenly.
Lu Qingzheng came out of the kitchen with a plate of melon seeds in his hand. Seeing the strange atmosphere in the room, he asked, "What are you talking about? Why are you all so serious?"
Tang Jingqiao smiled softly and started to eat some melon seeds: "Nothing, I just happened to talk about Lin Anan."
"Would you like some melon seeds?" Lu Qing handed the melon seeds to Qiao Xu.
Qiao Xu shook his head and sat back down, resting his hands on his knees. He subconsciously turned his thumbs and frowned at Lu Qing, "Lin Anan and Chu Mingzhou are getting a divorce?"
Lu Qing nodded, then shook his head, "That was the divorce application that Lin Anan submitted before she came. It hasn't been approved yet."
Qiao Xu grasped the key point in his words.
The fact that they are getting divorced is set in stone. Now that the divorce application has been submitted, there is no marriage that cannot be divorced.
He clenched his fists, didn't dwell on it too much, and didn't ask any further questions.
Qiao Xu's little follower sat down nearby and also grabbed a handful of melon seeds. He said as he ate them, "I saw Captain Chu was really fond of his wife the other day. I thought they had a very good relationship, but it turns out they were just doing it for show."
Lu Qing paused, "I'm not too sure about this. When Lin Anan first came here, the relationship between the two was indeed tense, but after spending some time together, it seems to have eased a lot."
Mu Youwei echoed, "It's hard for outsiders to say about emotional matters. But Comrade Lin looks fragile and in poor health. If he really gets divorced, it will be difficult for him to live alone."
He was expressing his feelings purely out of kindness, but he didn't notice the change in Qiao Xu's expression.
Isn't it difficult? Divorce is a big deal these days. Divorced women are no different from those who were divorced in ancient times. They will be spit upon when they go out.
Tang Jingqiao seized the opportunity and added fuel to the fire, "So, it's hard for female comrades! Lin Anan is now a military wife, so it's reasonable for her to help our military region. But once this marriage is divorced, she will definitely not be able to stay in the Northwest. If she returns to Su City, I'm afraid she will be criticized."
“She’s not from the Northwest?”
"No, she's from Sioux City."
"No wonder……"
Mu Youwei touched his chin and interrupted, "Our troupe leader is very fond of talent. If I can guarantee it, you can try to introduce Comrade Lin to our art troupe..."
Lu Qing was unhappy. "Hey, wait, wait, I'm still here. Are you trying to poach her right in front of me? Our art troupe invited her so many times and she refused to come. Why should she go to your place?"
Mu Youwei laughed, "Instructor Lu, you don't understand this, do you? Once the marriage is divorced, this great Northwest will be Comrade Lin's sad place, and she will definitely leave."
"Stop talking nonsense."
As Qiao Xu listened to Mu Youwei's analysis, his eyes became brighter and brighter, and a small flame seemed to be burning in his heart.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was a brilliant idea. If he could get Lin Anan to the Northern Military Region, he would have more opportunities to spend time with her in the future.
"Youwei, what you said makes a lot of sense. Comrade Lin is very talented. If he were to go to the Northern Military Region, he might really shine."
Seeing that Qiao Xu agreed with his opinion, Mu Youwei turned his attention to another topic. "Our leader is eager to recruit talented people. If I am sincere in making the connection, this won't be difficult."
Tang Jingqiao lowered her eyes slightly, and when she heard what they said, her mind instantly became active.
She fell in love with Chu Mingzhou at first sight, from her secret crush in her youth to her current helplessness...
Chu Mingzhou ignored her before, and she just thought he was like that to everyone. She just hated that the years passed so slowly and delayed her divorce application.
But now seeing him protecting Lin Anan in every possible way, he felt uncomfortable as if a thorn was stuck in his heart.
If Lin Anan left, wouldn’t Chu Mingzhou have nothing to worry about?
I don't mind him getting married for the second time, and we are a good match. What reason does he have to refuse?
Thinking of this, Tang Jingqiao put down the melon seeds, clapped her hands and said, "What a good idea! Lin Anan's talent cannot be denied. If Comrade Mu really takes her to the Northern Military Region, it will be a great help to her. She will definitely be grateful to you."
Lu Qing listened from the side, smiled and shook his head, "What are you guys thinking? They are a happy couple. Besides, this is someone else's family affair, don't speculate on it."
Tang Jingqiao rolled her eyes at Lu Qing and said, "We are here to help her. What's the point of staying here? Going to the Northern Military Region will be a new beginning."
"What do you know!"
"Right, right, right. I don't understand, but you do! You knew she wanted a divorce, but you still kept calling her sister-in-law. You understand best."
“You are…”
