Chen Hongcai wasn't foolish enough to risk this misfortune.
Anyone who goes to Gu Pingwei's ear and whispers this at this time is clearly asking for trouble.
Chen Hong also knew.
Some time ago, a central leader spoke with Gu Pingwei, wanting to transfer him to a position with more real power, but he refused without hesitation.
He had witnessed the relationship between Gu Pingwei and Jiang Jingxue firsthand.
Jiang Jingxue has invested in a seafood supermarket, built a fishing company, and even bought a lot of land and houses at high prices here. She definitely can't leave.
If the lieutenant colonel is transferred, they will have to live apart.
The lieutenant colonel did not want to be separated from his wife, which is why he refused to go to the central government.
When Jia Yunyun realized that trying to persuade Gu Pingwei's people was useless, she went completely crazy.
She had made so many efforts in secret, but Gu Pingwei was completely unmoved, and no amount of persuasion could change his mind.
At this point, the only solution she could think of was to go directly to Jiang Jingxue.
Jia Yunyun quickly learned Gu Pingwei's address from the internal files.
the next day.
She took advantage of Gu Pingwei's trip to the countryside to go directly to the Gu family home.
"Knock, knock, knock." She knocked on the door without any politeness.
Jiang Jingxue opened the door and saw Jia Yunyun standing outside in military uniform, asking questions as if she were checking someone's household registration.
"Are you Jiang Jingxue, a family member of Lieutenant Colonel Gu Pingwei?"
Jiang Jingxue particularly disliked her condescending tone.
She asked the question knowing the answer already.
"Yes, that's me. Who are you?"
“I am a lieutenant officer in the local military command. My name is Jia Yunyun.”
Jia Yunyun introduced herself and mentioned her impressive official position.
She had thought that Jiang Jingxue was just a woman from the countryside with no background and had never seen the world, so she would definitely be intimidated by her.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Jingxue didn't care about her military rank at all, and simply said "Oh" before speaking.
"Gu Pingwei isn't home. If you need anything, go to the military base to find him."
After Jiang Jingxue finished speaking, she was about to close the door.
Jia Yunyun blocked it with her hand.
"I'm not looking for Gu Pingwei, I'm looking for you!"
Intuition told her that this woman was up to no good. Jiang Jingxue also wanted to see what she was up to, so she simply opened her door wide.
"Come in."
In the living room, Jiang Jingxue casually pointed to the thermos and water cup on the table.
"Lieutenant Jia, please make yourself at home."
Jia Yunyun felt somewhat displeased that Jiang Jingxue did not greet or entertain her with the utmost respect.
She thought to herself, "This country woman really has no manners!"
She disliked Jiang Jingxue.
Jiang Jingxue also disliked her.
He's just a military officer, what's with all the acting!
This is the only way she can respond to people who don't know how to respect others.
Jiang Jingxue went straight to the point and asked.
"What brings you here today?"
Jia Yunyun was also very straightforward and told the whole story directly.
"Gu Pingwei probably didn't tell you, did he? Some time ago, leaders from the central government came down to inspect the area and specifically talked to Gu Pingwei, wanting to transfer him to the central government. They offered him generous terms and even promised to promote him to colonel within three years."
"If Gu Pingwei can follow the arrangements, his future achievements will far surpass those of Old Master Gu, and his future will be limitless!"
"But he refused without hesitation, insisting on settling down here!"
Jiang Jingxue was indeed somewhat shocked upon hearing this news.
It seems that what Yue Keqi told her before was not unfounded.
No wonder I've been feeling that Gu Pingwei has something on his mind lately.
It turns out he had such a great opportunity for promotion, but he turned it down so he could be with her.
Despite the considerable turmoil within her, Jiang Jingxue outwardly pretended to be nonchalant.
"For work-related matters, you should consult Gu Pingwei. I don't understand these things, so I won't interfere too much in his work."
Jiang Jingxue's calmness made Jia Yunyun particularly unhappy.
She looked at Jiang Jingxue as if she were examining a criminal.
"You should know that he gave up his future for you! As his wife, don't you feel guilty? Lieutenant Colonel Gu used to fight every day, suffered so much, and made so many contributions to achieve what he has today. Just because of your existence, you are blocking his path to promotion. Don't you think that to him, you are a burden?"
Hearing Jia Yunyun's words, Jiang Jingxue almost laughed out of anger.
No wonder I didn't like her at first sight.
It seems there are reasons for all of this.
Jiang Jingxue crossed her arms and looked at her.
"That stretch of sea near Shenzhen, is it all yours?"
Jia Yunyun didn't understand: "What do you mean?"
Jiang Jingxue said, word by word, "What I mean is, you're really nosy!"
As soon as Jiang Jingxue finished speaking, Jia Yunyun's face turned red with anger!
"you!"
"What do you mean 'what do you mean'! This is between the two of us, what's it to you! Are you his boss? Are you his mother? Since you're not him, why are you meddling so much!"
"We can go if we want to be transferred, or we can stay if we don't want to. What's the problem? Will we be executed by the organization if we don't want to go?"
Jiang Jingxue unleashed a torrent of criticism, leaving Jia Yunyun speechless.
She originally wanted to take the initiative and use moral blackmail to make Jiang Jingxue feel guilty, thereby making concessions for Gu Pingwei's future.
Unexpectedly, she didn't fall for it at all.
Jia Yunyun was used to being arrogant and had never suffered such humiliation before.
"Jiang Jingxue, you're a complete shrew!"
Enraged, she began to launch a personal attack.
"As expected of a village woman from a poor, remote area, selfish and lacking in manners! A woman like you is completely unworthy of Gu Pingwei!"
Jiang Jingxue sneered.
"I'm not good enough for Gu Pingwei, so are you?"
"You seem to care a lot about my husband, does that mean you have feelings for him?"
"I'd like to know, if an officer in the military breaks up someone's marriage, does that count as breaking up a military marriage?"
When Jia Yunyun saw that Jiang Jingxue had escalated the issue to this level, she panicked a little.
"Jiang Jingxue! What nonsense are you talking about! Gu Pingwei and I are just colleagues, it's not as dirty as you think!"
"I just can't stand it... I just can't stand it because you're dragging him down! I want to stand up for him! If you really care about him, you should persuade him to obey the orders from above and take a position in the Central Military Region!"
Jia Yunyun attempted to morally blackmail Jiang Jingxue once again.
Jiang Jingxue wouldn't fall for her trick.
"That sounds nice, all this talk about standing up for someone in need. Gu Pingwei doesn't even think I'm a burden to him, so what gives you the right to say that!"
Jiang Jingxue's retort left Jia Yunyun, who prided herself on being righteous, completely speechless.
She saw that Jiang Jingxue was quite pretty and originally thought she was a brainless and weak woman.
I never expected her to be so fierce and have such strong fighting ability!
Fearing that she would be verbally abused with even harsher words if she stayed any longer, Jia Yunyun could only turn around and leave quickly.
