Chapter 393 Waiting for her reaction
After Xiao Guohua finished explaining his situation to Xiao Zhigang, he hurried away. He had other things to do. He was now in his forties and a section chief. If he worked hard, he could still get promoted. But now that he had clearly offended Xia Zhengming, could he still get promoted in the future?
He hurried back to the office, but ran into Director Ruan Zhixin at the door of the office building. He quickly greeted him, "Hello, Director Ruan."
Ruan Zhixin hummed, thinking of Xia Zhengming's call yesterday. He said, "Minister Xia called me yesterday and asked about your Zhigang and your phone number. What's going on?"
Ruan Zhixin didn't think Xiao Guohua and Xia Zhengming had a close relationship, otherwise Xia Zhengming wouldn't have asked for his phone number. Furthermore, Xia Zhengming's tone at the time was clearly not very good.
Therefore, it is possible that Xiao Guohua's son had offended Xia Zhengming. Thinking of what he had just learned about the relationship between Xia Zhengming and Gu Sanjing, Ruan Zhixin had some guesses in his mind.
Xiao Guohua was now in a state of panic. He hadn't expected Xia Zhengming to contact Ruan Zhixin before calling him. Although he had only asked for her number, who among them didn't have a very complicated mind? Ruan Zhixin must have guessed something.
what to do?
Now a director of the bureau is about to retire. Originally, he had a good chance of being promoted. But now
"Minister Xia just asked some questions that have nothing to do with the bureau." Xiao Guohua tried his best to smile naturally, but his slightly trembling hands betrayed everything.
Ruan Zhixin smiled and said, "It's okay, go ahead and do your work."
"good."
Xiao Guohua watched Ruan Zhixin walk away leisurely, then walked into his office with a trepidation in his heart. This time, he might not have a chance of getting a promotion. He had been planning this for a long time!
After Xiao Guohua left, Xiao Zhigang stood there for a long time before turning around and returning to the training ground.
Because his father worked in the Sports Bureau, he was exposed to various events of the national sports team since he was a child. Then when he was nine years old, he was discovered to have a talent for diving. After a period of training, he directly joined the national team.
Later, he won great results in many competitions and thought that his future life would be brilliant. But one day, his father's words changed his mind.
My father said, "Being good at diving is just a starting point in your life. You have a good starting point, but if you want to be more successful in life, you still need a lot of things. For example, financial resources and power."
He didn't understand at the time. He thought that winning the championship was already a success, so he asked his father why he said that.
His father explained, "Although our country only officially participated in the Olympics during the last Olympics, we've produced countless outstanding athletes in preparation for them. It's fair to say that each of them trained very hard, but the results of their hard work were different for each individual. Even the champions of the last Olympics are now in different situations."
Athletes must retire sooner or later. The quality of life after retirement is related to how many gold medals you win, but it's not absolute. The quality of life after retirement depends on your connections, financial resources, and power.
After his father said this, he suddenly understood.
Every year, athletes retire. Some of those who retire stay to become coaches, some join the Sports Bureau, some go into business, and some become ordinary people.
Why are there so many differences between athletes and champions? It must be because of the blessings beyond championship that my father mentioned.
So, he later began to pay attention to many things besides training, such as his relationship with the coach and his relationships with teammates with good grades. Later, he even started dating Jiao Qingyi, because Jiao Qingyi was the best performer on the women's diving team at the time and a surefire champion.
If they were married in the future, both of them would be world champions, supporting each other would definitely be better. However, unexpectedly, Jiao Qingyi's performance declined so much that he did not even win the championship in the last Olympic Games.
Jiao Qingyi's family background is not very good, and if she doesn't have the title of champion, she will not be worthy of him at all, so he decisively broke up with Jiao Qingyi.
Then Gu Sanjing came. When he first saw her, he was deeply attracted to her. She was so beautiful. The national women's diving team had never had such a beautiful girl.
But even though he was attracted by Gu Sanjing's appearance, he didn't make a move. He knew that the appearance of the partner he wanted was not important. But later, Gu Sanjing's diving skills were very good, and her family was also very wealthy. He began to be attracted to her and began to appear in front of Gu Sanjing frequently.
But whether it was because of her young age or some other reason, Gu Sanjing always ignored him. Later, he asked Jiao Qingyi for help. He told Jiao Qingyi that if she could help him and Gu Sanjing date, her grades would drop like hers, and she would be one step closer to the championship.
But he naturally didn't think so in his heart. If he were to date Gu Sanjing, he would definitely let Gu Sanjing maintain her current performance and then win the Olympic championship.
Only Jiao Qingyi, that fool, would believe what he said. He and Gu Sanjing were dating, and they would be a community of interests. How could he let Gu Sanjing's grades decline?
But Gu Sanjing was a blockhead, and no matter what he did, he couldn't attract her attention. Later, he could only spread rumors. But he never expected that Xia Zhengming would call him just after the rumor started.
I really can't accept this!
Xia Zhengming, who is such a big shot, personally stood up for Gu Sanjing, which shows that Gu Sanjing's background is even more powerful.
But what else could he do? Now he could only listen to his father, apologize to Gu Sanjing, and clarify the rumors.
He walked towards the training ground, feeling somewhat discouraged. When he reached the women's diving team's training ground, he happened to run into Gu Sanjing, who was accompanied by several other female team members. He hesitated for a moment, then called out to them, "Gu Sanjing."
Gu Sanjing stopped walking when she heard his voice. Because of the rumors, everyone around them was looking at the two of them in an ambiguous way. She thought to herself that they were really bold, daring to date openly.
But they saw Xiao Guohua walk to a position two meters away from Gu Sanjing and stand, then said seriously: "I'm very sorry. Some of my previous actions have caused misunderstandings and spread bad rumors. I apologize to you here."
After saying this, he bowed sincerely to Gu Sanjing.
His behavior stunned the people around him. Xiao Zhigang was too humble. He actually bowed to Gu Sanjing.
At this time, everyone saw Xiao Guohua bow and stand up, then said to them: "There were rumors that Gu Sanjing and I were dating before, but that was a rumor, it was false. Someone was deliberately destroying the image of Gu Sanjing and me. I hope everyone will stop discussing such things in the future. Besides, I am not worthy of Gu Sanjing."
As soon as he said this, everyone around him looked at Gu Sanjing, waiting for her reaction.
