In the private room of Xiaokang Restaurant, Wei Ke and Xiao Rui stood up for Li Xiuyuan, while Su Ziying's expression was somewhat evasive. She hadn't expected it to be for this reason, that Li Xiuyuan had such an experience.
When she met Li Xiuyuan, he was already very outstanding. At a young age, he was already a deputy section chief, which was not inferior to his peers even in the provincial capital, although the platform in the township could not compare with that in the province.
But if someone can be promoted to deputy section chief at this age, even in a rural town, they have a bright future. It's hard to say where their future ceiling is, but this starting point is definitely not slow.
When a guy like this breaks up with his girlfriend, she has guessed many possible reasons, such as incompatibility, differing values, career issues, or long-distance relationship. But she never expected it to be simply because one of them passed the civil service exam while the other failed.
With just this one thing, the two broke up.
Li Xiuyuan was also observing the expressions of the others. He definitely didn't say this at the dinner table to gossip with them. Xiao Rui and Wei Ke's reactions were normal. Most people would feel angry upon hearing such a thing.
Young people, especially those who have just graduated, are unaware of how cruel reality can be, and they are bound to be angry when they encounter such a thing.
Su Ziying's reaction was one of astonishment and incomprehension. But upon closer examination, this reaction is actually quite normal. She is the daughter of the deputy minister of the Organization Department. Whether she gets a job or not is just a matter of words.
For some people, wanting to take the civil service exam and get into the system is as easy as eating and drinking; they're completely detached from worldly concerns.
How can anyone understand what passing the civil service exam means to an ordinary person? Passing the exam means having a secure job and, to some extent, social resources and social status in a small county.
The other is an unemployed youth in a small county town in the north. If he says he runs a business, it's basically the same as not having a job.
"This matter is all in the past, and it's actually quite good. Everyone has their own choices, and there's nothing to complain about. The only thing I'm bothered by is that she brought the son of the deputy director of the Industry and Commerce Bureau to my restaurant to threaten me. If she had just spoken to me nicely, I would have respected her. Everyone has the right to choose, and I won't try to hold her hostage."
Li Xiuyuan said with a smile that after so long, she was actually quite indifferent to the topic. She didn't say anything bad about Lin Jingya, partly because speaking ill of an ex in front of Su Ziying could garner some sympathy.
The problem is that when the two of you have a conflict in the future, the other person will definitely remember how you spoke ill of your ex, and will feel that saying good things will make them seem magnanimous.
Another reason is that I also hope Lin Jingya is happy in Longgou Township. I heard that Longgou Township has beautiful scenery.
"But Brother Li, you've sacrificed so much?" Wei Ke still felt indignant on Li Xiuyuan's behalf.
Li Xiuyuan smiled and shook his head: "How much I give is all voluntary and has nothing to do with the other party. My purpose in giving is to hope that the other party can live a good life, not to ask for anything in return."
As soon as Li Xiuyuan finished speaking, Wei Ke, Su Ziying, and the others looked at Li Xiuyuan with a gleam in their eyes. This was different from the rhetoric about ten or twenty years later. Twenty years later, if you tried to cultivate a devoted image, everyone would think you were a simp.
However, at this time, the image of a deeply affectionate person is still liked by many people.
