"Thank you, Brother Wang," Xiuyuan also started to act out the scene. "No matter where I end up in the future, being able to work in a government office and meet two good brothers is enough for me even if I don't have a boyfriend."
Hearing Xiuyuan's words, Wang Zhitao was even more moved: "Why don't you try to find Wu Yiyi? If Wu Yiyi can speak up, maybe there's room for easing this situation."
Boyang also nodded and advised, "Yes, don't be so proud. You should try this kind of thing whenever possible."
Hearing this, Xiuyuan smiled bitterly and said, "Brothers, if I could talk, I'd like to, but I'm not familiar with them. How can I ask them for help? I'm asking for their help, and they're going to help me? In the end, I'll just end up getting myself into trouble."
Boyang sighed, that's true.
"Okay, I'll treat you tonight, let's go have a drink." Wang Zhitao said to comfort Xiuyuan. Xiuyuan originally wanted to revise the manuscript in the evening. Today is Thursday, and he will take the manuscript to the provincial capital tomorrow night.
The time has been calculated. If we leave a little earlier, we can catch the last bus from the bus station and arrive in the provincial capital around 6:30, which is just right for the dinner at 7 o'clock. Although the time is a little tight, there is no other way. There are only two days this weekend, and we have to rush back on Monday.
But since Wang Zhitao had already spoken, Xiuyuan had no choice but to nod and agree.
After the three of them arrived at the office, Xiuyuan immediately started working. He had a dinner party in the evening, so he could only work during the day.
Everyone else in the office was busy with their own work, but when they looked at Xiuyuan, their eyes were a little strange. The only person not there was Wu Yiyi. She only attended a government-organized conference, and after the conference, no one knew where she went to work, and she didn't show up until after get off work.
After get off work, Wang Zhitao treated the three of them to a small restaurant they often went to, asked for a private room, ordered some dishes, and started chatting. When they were almost drunk, Boyang patted Xiuyuan on the shoulder and said.
"Xiuyuan, I'm not as good as you. When I was competing with Qu Hui, if I had your courage, I would not have worked in the county government, but at least I would have prevented Qu Hui from becoming the section chief, and we wouldn't be in this situation now.
But there’s nothing I can do. Given the situation at home, I can’t just ignore my child and make a scene. I can only endure it…”
Boyang's eyes were a little red, which seemed like the wine was not intoxicating but people were getting drunk anyway.
"Brother, there's no need. It's all in the past."
"Thank you, brother. With your help, Qu Hui will be more restrained in the future. Zhitao and I will be in a much better situation in the comprehensive department. But unfortunately, we have no connections and can't help you..."
As Boyang spoke, Wang Zhitao nodded with regret.
Xiuyuan waved his hand and was about to say something when his cell phone rang. He took it out and saw that it was Wu Yiyi calling. He was about to get up and go out to answer it when Wang Zhitao saw him and glared at him: "Xiuyuan, you said that you and Wu Yiyi are just ordinary colleagues and you are not familiar with each other. Why did she call you so late at night?"
"I..." Xiuyuan was suddenly speechless, hesitating to explain: "I don't know either. Maybe he knew about my feelings and called to comfort me?"
"Then you answer it." Wang Zhitao nodded. Xiuyuan had no choice but to give up the idea of going out to answer the phone and answered the phone with gritted teeth.
"Hello, Sister Wu..." Before, Xiuyuan always called Wu Yiyi "Sister Yiyi". This time he deliberately called "Sister Wu" just to let Wu Yiyi know that it was inconvenient for him to speak at this time.
But unexpectedly, Wu Yiyi on the other end of the phone didn't hear anything at all. She said anxiously, "I heard about what happened yesterday. You were too impulsive."
"I……"
"Where are you? I just finished my work and came to see you now."
