Zhao Qingzhou, however, said with a straight face, "I am certainly busy, but what Wen Qiao needs most is not me, but you, her capable assistant."
“Liang Qing, I know you’ve been worried that you’ll feel uncomfortable if we go to work together again because of our relationship.”
"I think it's time for me to be transferred to another job."
Upon hearing this, Liang Qing paused slightly. This was something she hadn't expected. Zhao Qingzhou would choose to transfer jobs because of her, but he was worried that she would feel uncomfortable working together with him.
On a level that Liang Qing couldn't have imagined, Zhao Qingzhou was thinking a bit more deeply.
He knew that Liang Qing, working in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, couldn't stay in one position forever; her position would definitely change in the future.
He wasn't afraid, but he was worried that Liang Qing and others in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs would overthink things and that Liang Qing's future promotions would be because of him.
This is Zhao Qingzhou's deepest consideration when choosing to change jobs.
Liang Qing assumed that since they were in the same room, in a superior-subordinate relationship and also as husband and wife, it would be inconvenient for them to do things together.
On Monday, as usual, Liang Qing was thinking of getting off at one stop earlier than usual, but Zhao Qingzhou told her that they were now husband and wife, and it would be very abnormal for them to get off at another stop earlier.
Zhao Qingzhou told Liang Qing not to be reserved, to be herself, and to face things openly and generously.
Zhao Qingzhou even prepared a large bag of wedding candy. He said that he would ask Liang Qing to take some too, and if any of their colleagues asked about it, he would share some with them.
Zhao Qingzhou and Liang Qing intended to keep their wedding low-key, so they didn't invite many of their colleagues from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, only people from the Information Department.
But when working at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, besides the Information Department, there are other colleagues. If everyone starts making a fuss, it's really not good to be empty-handed and unprepared.
Liang Qing, who was initially very worried, felt much more at ease after hearing Zhao Qingzhou's reassuring words.
She couldn't help but think to herself that people who have been married once are more experienced.
She thought, since she didn't understand anything anyway, she might as well listen to Zhao Qingzhou.
Sure enough, when they arrived at the office, everyone saw that Liang Qing and Zhao Qingzhou had come together. They didn't dare to tease Zhao Qingzhou, but they wanted to tease Liang Qing, especially the female colleagues.
Liang Qing generously and warmly distributed wedding candies to everyone.
After eating the wedding candy given by Liang Qing, the female colleague, who was just joking around, didn't ask any more questions and just said a few words of congratulations.
As soon as Liang Qing arrived at work, she immediately took over her duties and didn't have a moment to rest.
When Wen Qiao saw Liang Qing, she couldn't help but laugh and joke, "I thought you guys were going to take a few more days off!"
Liang Qing said with a smile, "We were worried about being too busy at work, and besides, we didn't have anywhere else to go. These past few days, we've taken Niannian to do some rehabilitation."
Wen Qiao didn't ask any more questions, but Liang Qing seemed afraid that Wen Qiao would think they were going out to play, so she gave an extra explanation.
Wen Qiao chuckled, "You can go out and play for two or three days. If you can't go far, you can go to Tianjin or Hebei, or Qinhuangdao."
"You mentioned Niannian's recovery. Is she feeling better now? Can she see again?"
When her daughter was mentioned, Liang Qing's expression immediately returned to normal, even showing a hint of seriousness and worry about her child's future.
“I still need acupuncture now, but the old Chinese medicine doctor said that if the treatment doesn’t work, I might be able to have an eye transplant later. I don’t know anything about these things. Zhao Qingzhou said to try Chinese medicine treatment first, and we’ll see what happens if it doesn’t work later.”
Wen Qiao said softly with concern, "Have you thought about going abroad to learn about this situation and find out the truth first? If it's really congenital, it's difficult to treat, so surgery will be necessary. If it was caused later in life, then traditional Chinese medicine treatment will be the first option."
Speaking of this, Liang Qing fell into a strange sense of regret.
“When Niannian was born, I was thinking about finding an opportunity to study and learn to read, and to find a good job so that I could support her. I didn’t pay much attention to Niannian at the time, and my mind was on my studies, so I neglected this issue.”
As Liang Qing spoke, she looked at Wen Qiao and asked, "Would there be more opportunities if we went abroad?"
Wen Qiao said, "Of course, we can do more checks. However, I can't guarantee whether it will be effective."
"By the way, you can ask Zhao Qingzhou to go find Huo Dongqing. Dr. Huo is engaged in medical research and is said to have studied some rare and difficult diseases. He may know some things because he is knowledgeable."
Liang Qing was very happy to receive this information from Wen Qiao and felt grateful to her.
When Liang Qing got home that evening, she told Zhao Qingzhou the information she had learned from Wen Qiao.
Zhao Qingzhou replied, "That's no problem. I'll contact Dr. Huo directly later. Once we've made contact and confirmed the time, we'll take Niannian for the checkup."
"But you, why did you pretend you didn't know me at the company cafeteria today? We're husband and wife, nobody at work knows that, yet you deliberately went to find Wen Qiao, even though I was right next to you and you didn't even look at me..."
He then started to sound aggrieved.
Liang Qing immediately explained, "We often eat together, we're used to it."
Zhao Qingzhou: "So that means you're not used to sitting with me yet?"
As Zhao Qingzhou spoke, he was thinking to himself that next time, he would take the initiative to approach Liang Qing.
For Zhao Qingzhou, Liang Qing was gentle and intellectual, and was well-liked by his parents at home. His son, Xiao Ze, also liked her very much. Niannian was sensible and obedient. In their sex life, she went from being at a loss and resistant at the beginning to now knowing what he wanted as soon as he got close.
This kind of stable happiness was something Zhao Qingzhou simply couldn't resist.
He wished he could be with Liang Qing every day, asserting his dominance to those around him.
But he also discovered that this strange mix of anticipation and trepidation seemed to be felt only by him; Liang Qing remained unchanged.
He knew Liang Qing didn't love him, but she probably did, right?
Even the most outstanding Director Zhao in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs had some insecurity in his personal life.
Zhao Qingzhou devised a plan in his mind to get Liang Qing used to him.
She wasn't used to taking the initiative to get close to him, so he took the initiative to get close to Liang Qing.
Wen Qiao and Zhao Qingzhou have some work-related interactions that require direct communication, but if Wen Qiao is on vacation, someone else has to take over. The only person who can be in charge of this is Wen Qiao's right-hand woman, Liang Qing.
Therefore, due to Zhao Qingzhou's selfish motives, Wen Qiao was easily given a holiday.
As a result, Liang Qing started going in and out of Zhao Qingzhou's office more often.
At first, Liang Qing tried to convince herself that she was just doing it for work, and that she and Zhao Qingzhou were husband and wife when they went home at night, but during the day at work they were just superior and subordinate.
I took some international news reports to Director Zhao Qingzhou to confirm whether or not to release them, and when to set a specific release date...
As soon as Liang Qing knocked on the door, she heard a calm, cold, and somewhat serious male voice coming from inside.
In fact, Zhao Qingzhou's tone was usually polite and mild when he spoke to Liang Qing, but it became more gentle after they got married.
But now, separated by the door, Zhao Qingzhou didn't know that the person outside was Liang Qing. He maintained his cold and serious demeanor towards his colleagues and even subordinates.
This unfamiliar change in tone made Liang Qing even more cautious.
She clearly understood that Zhao Qingzhou was her husband, her boss, and the boss she should fear most.
"Director, it's me, Liang Qing..."
