Looking at Li Xiuyuan's determined gaze, Su Ziying felt a little hesitant. To be honest, as a teacher, she didn't care about the rumors circulating at school, since she wasn't married.
The rumors that circulated were about a young town mayor like Li Xiuyuan.
Besides, she had gotten used to it over a long time. Because she was beautiful and wealthy, there were many rumors about her when she was in school.
But she never cared.
However, Li Xiuyuan is different. As the town mayor, he will continue to stay in the central town and Huangyuan County. These rumors will have some impact on him, and even put him under pressure.
Li Xiuyuan caught the hint of hesitation in Su Ziying's eyes and sighed inwardly. Sure enough, it's better to take things one step at a time. Decisions made on a whim are unreliable.
The town government staff who followed him in wanted to back away.
If they had acted impulsively that night and made some real progress, like confirming their relationship, it would have backfired afterwards, and they wouldn't know how to get along with each other.
It still requires daily interactions, little by little, to gradually build a solid foundation for the relationship.
However, Li Xiuyuan was not going to let Su Ziying back down at this moment. He smiled and said, "Teacher Su, are you scared? If you are, then wait at the door for a while. I will drive out and you can get in the car and we will go to the county."
Seeing Li Xiuyuan's ambiguous smile, Su Ziying was unwilling to back down: "What's there to be afraid of? I'm only thinking about Mayor Li's reputation. I don't care, I'm just an ordinary volunteer teacher. But Mayor Li is different. If Mayor Li isn't afraid, then I'm even less afraid."
"Haha, Teacher Su, don't worry. Right now, I'm only focused on my career and have no other thoughts. It won't affect me. Let's go then."
"Let's go then." Su Ziying followed Li Xiuyuan into the town government building.
When they arrived at the gate, the security guard came out to greet them. Seeing that Li Xiuyuan was with a beautiful woman, the guard didn't ask any questions and didn't even glance at Su Ziying.
Being a gatekeeper at the town's middle school is completely different from being a gatekeeper at the town government. If you don't have that kind of keen eye, you can't work as anyone's relative.
Su Ziying had thought the gatekeeper would ask her some questions, and she even wanted to hear how Li Xiuyuan would introduce himself, but the gatekeeper didn't ask at all.
Li Xiuyuan's car was parked in the town government compound. Li Xiuyuan took the car keys, opened the car door, got in with Su Ziying, slowly started the car, and drove out of the town government compound, heading towards the county.
Li Xiuyuan estimated that the security guard might not dare to speak recklessly, because today was Saturday, and at this time, even those who were working overtime hadn't come to work yet. He was all alone, and if he said anything, Li Xiuyuan would know immediately that it was him.
However, it's possible that gossip within the system is sometimes uncontrollable. Even if it's not talked about today, it might be talked about in the future, and it might even spread from the town's middle school.
The car drove towards the county. On the way, Li Xiuyuan introduced Su Ziying to some of the local customs and traditions of Huangyuan County. Although Su Ziying may have already heard about some of these customs and traditions, she still listened with great interest.
