Secretary Chen, who had a mouthful of wine in his mouth and was waiting to bask in the envious gazes of Ruan Miaomiao, Zhou Jingyun, and others, spat it out upon hearing Ruan Miaomiao's words, and asked incredulously:
"What?
"Is Commander Ruan your father?"
His eyes were wide open like saucers, and his face was filled with disbelief.
Director Zhang and the others at the dinner table stared blankly at Ruan Miaomiao.
Ruan Miaomiao shrugged dismissively: "Yes, it is my father!"
After speaking in a clear voice, she looked at Zhou Jingyun with a coquettish expression and scolded, "Ah Yun, you really are something. Although I like to keep a low profile and don't like people mentioning my teachers and father all the time, Secretary Chen and the others all work with you. You didn't even introduce them."
Hearing Ruan Miaomiao's words, Zhou Jingyun secretly chuckled: This girl is being naughty again.
However, as a doting husband, how could he possibly contradict his partner in front of outsiders?
He picked up where Ruan Miaomiao left off and laughed, "It's all my fault for being too busy lately and forgetting to mention it!"
Blame me! "
"..."
At the dinner table, everyone exclaimed: "You guys really put on a big show!"
Their gazes toward Zhou Jingyun grew even more eager: They hadn't expected this kid to be so lucky. Not only had he gotten in touch with an overseas pharmaceutical company, but he'd also found a girlfriend who was the daughter of the Haicheng Division Commander. His future was limitless!
Of course, their gazes toward Ruan Miaomiao became even more intense: she was Commander Ruan's daughter!
So even though Secretary Chen was already drunk, he sobered up and started fawning over Ruan Miaomiao and Zhou Jingyun...
After everyone left, Secretary Chen spoke to his wife, Zhang Juan:
“Look at you, when I was going to punish your relatives before, you weren’t happy about it.”
"Look, if we hadn't dealt with it beforehand, and hadn't managed to appease Zhou Jingyun's boyfriend, do you think Ruan Miaomiao would have let it go so easily?"
Zhou Juan was also uneasy. Ever since her husband became the county party secretary, she could do whatever she wanted in Bicheng, and she even helped her family members climb the social ladder.
Today, upon hearing that her husband wanted to punish her relatives from her maternal family who worked at the supply and marketing cooperative, she was extremely unhappy.
However, when the man brought up her career prospects, she had no choice but to endure it.
However, when Ruan Miaomiao and Zhou Jingyun came to her door, she was still very unhappy with Ruan Miaomiao. Seeing that the other party was beautiful and charming, she cursed her in her heart as a vixen who sold her body to seduce men. She also felt that although Zhou Jingyun had some ability now, he was so easily deceived by women that he would not last long.
Little did they know that Ruan Miaomiao came from such a privileged background.
Now, she could somewhat understand why Zhou Jingyun doted on Ruan Miaomiao so much.
Is the one being pampered and fawned over Ruan Miaomiao?
No, it's clearly the Ruan family's influence.
If Zhou Juan had such a good family to support her, wouldn't her husband cherish and pamper her?
The moment she learned Ruan Miaomiao's identity, she dared not resent her at all. In fact, she even greeted Ruan Miaomiao with a smile and invited her to eat, afraid that the two glares she had given Ruan Miaomiao when she first entered would be remembered by the other woman...
******
After the two finished eating in the county town, Zhou Jingyun asked the driver to take them back to Jianshan Brigade.
Unfortunately, the two haven't registered their marriage yet. If they live together outside, there's a risk of rumors spreading against Ruan Miaomiao.
After sending Ruan Miaomiao home, Zhou Jingyun prepared to take a car and rush back to the county town for work overnight.
However, before he even reached the village entrance, a figure suddenly rammed straight into him in the darkness.
In the pitch-black environment, someone suddenly appeared in front of him and crashed straight into him. Without thinking, Zhou Jingyun took a few steps back.
With that retreat, the dark figure fell directly to the ground.
"Waaah~"
The one who fell to the ground appeared to be a woman, and she made a soft moaning sound.
"Comrade Zhou, I'm so sorry, I wasn't watching where I was going and almost bumped into you..."
The woman, who had fallen to the ground, looked up at Zhou Jingyun and said pleadingly, "But I think I twisted my ankle. Could you please take me back to the educated youth settlement?"
The woman's voice was deliberately soft and delicate, attempting to bewitch Zhou Jingyun's heart.
However, Zhou Jingyun's heart had already been completely given to Ruan Miaomiao, and she would not be easily swayed by anyone.
Zhou Jingyun shone the flashlight directly into the woman's face on the ground and spoke coldly and ruthlessly:
"Li Yuying?"
Upon hearing Zhou Jingyun's words, Li Yuying subconsciously ignored the coldness in his tone, only feeling happy that he had recognized her:
This man actually knows me? If he knows me, does that mean he's been secretly watching me and has some feelings for me too?
Thinking about this, Li Yuying felt excited: it seemed that her chances of winning over this man were much higher.
She tried her best to put on a wronged expression, looking up at Zhou Jingyun with teary eyes, and spoke in a strained voice, appearing weak and vulnerable: "Comrade Zhou..."
"Do you have phlegm in your throat?"
Zhou Jingyun interrupted Li Yuying's performance impatiently: "Sister, your voice is practically glued together. There's no need to force yourself to sound bad. It's disgusting!"
"..."
Hearing Zhou Jingyun's words, Li Yuying was completely stunned: How could this man say such an uncouth thing?
Shouldn't he be attracted by the vulnerability he displays?
"Comrade Zhou, is there some misunderstanding about me? I..."
Li Yuying suddenly wondered if the other party had found out about her visit to Zhou Jingyun's parents that night, and now had a bad impression of her.
