Gu Panyun looked at the big boy beside her; by the moonlight, she could clearly see his face.
"Comrade Xu, have you forgotten what my brother told you?" She lowered her head and spoke softly.
Xu Xiangyang isn't deaf. There are only the two of them around, and even though it's snowing heavily, there's no other sound.
He turned and glanced at the petite figure, but did not answer.
They won't be together. Putting aside the fact that he has no intention of getting married, Gu Panyun's status alone prevents them from being together.
The working class and the mayor's daughter are not even in the same league.
Gu Panyun did not hear his reply and felt a tearing pain in her heart.
If he doesn't like himself, why did he come to save people?
Xu Xiangyang could sense that the little girl next to him was crying, even though there was no sound.
The two did not speak again on the way, and he escorted Gu Panyun to her doorstep.
Gu Panyun stopped and said without turning her head, "I was the one who offended those three people today, so I was arrested. It has nothing to do with you."
After saying that, she pushed open the door and went into the yard.
Xu Xiangyang looked at the light reflected from the window of the small building and sighed deeply.
well……
What should we do?
He did nothing, yet he made the little girl cry. Is he really that good?
Xu Xiangyang frowned, then shook his head. Perhaps he was too outstanding, which made Comrade Gu have a good impression of him.
But that wasn't his intention, so...
"Forget me," he murmured, then turned and left.
...
The next morning, Xu Xiangyang went to work as usual.
He saw Qian Wenqing lighting the stove and said, "Why didn't you come to my house for dinner yesterday?"
It wasn't that he was being unreasonable and insisted on having people come to his house for dinner; it was just that, given Qian Wenqing's personality, it was really puzzling that he said he'd come for dinner but then didn't.
Qian Wenqing turned around hesitantly, then glanced at Master Chen.
Xu Xiangyang turned to look at Master Chen, then didn't ask any more questions.
He walked to the desk and was about to sit down when he heard Master Chen speak to him.
"Xiao Xu, come here, I need to talk to you about something." His expression was somewhat complicated, and he seemed hesitant to speak.
Xu Xiangyang turned to look at Qian Wenqing and saw that he also looked clueless, so he knew that Qian Wenqing didn't know either.
"Master Chen, is there anything I can help you with?" he asked as he walked over.
Master Chen nodded, then pursed his lips and said, "Xiao Xu, it's like this, the company is planning to give you a leave of absence first, and we'll decide on the specific date when you'll return to work later."
After saying that, his eyes were filled with complicated emotions. He looked outside and, seeing that no one was there, asked again, "Xiao Xu, who have you offended?"
In general, even if someone makes a mistake, they won't be suspended. This is equivalent to firing them and giving them undetermined leave; isn't that just refusing to use them?
Xu Xiangyang suddenly remembered that it might have been done by Gu Panyun's family.
After all, her brother had come looking for her before, so it's probably pretty much a done deal.
"It's nothing. In that case, I'll just pack my things," he replied casually, then turned around and started packing.
"Huh?" Master Chen sighed when he saw that the man hadn't mentioned who he had offended. "Sigh... what a mess this is!"
He personally likes Xu Xiangyang very much. He can accept any job without complaint. Where can you find someone like that?
If the leader hadn't personally given the order, he would have definitely gone to argue with them.
Xu Xiangyang didn't have much stuff, so he finished packing quickly.
Qian Wenqing quickly followed him out, and when they were some distance from the office, he said, "Brother Xu, have you gotten yourself into trouble?"
He sighed. "This morning I saw Master Chen go into that deputy director's office. Do you think he's trying to get revenge on us?"
revenge?
Xu Xiangyang stopped in his tracks, remembering that he did indeed have some past grievances with that deputy director.
But surely it's not enough to fire him?
"Don't talk nonsense here. Don't spout any more rubbish after I leave, or someone will fire you too." He rolled his eyes, then picked up his things and walked out.
Qian Wenqing curled his lip and said, "Let him be stubborn. He's already been fired and he's still showing off."
However, he really couldn't bear to part with Xu Xiangyang. The two had been together for so long and had even gone through life and death together; they had shared hardships and joys.
He patted Xu Xiangyang on the shoulder and said, "Brother Xu, I'll come to see you often in the future. Don't worry about work. I'll ask around and see if I can get a job."
Seeing his expression, Xu Xiangyang didn't say anything, just nodded and left.
He wasn't in a hurry to work, since he had plenty of food, drink, and money. He was just worried that his family would get anxious and upset if they found out.
Especially for the two elderly people, they are prone to getting sick when they get anxious or stressed.
"Ugh, what bad luck," he muttered.
At that moment, a woman in her forties stood in front of him, clearly there to stop him.
Xu Xiangyang raised an eyebrow. "Is there something you need?"
Although he knew he was incredibly handsome, he had no interest in older women.
Women over thirty are the most terrifying; they're not even as good as young girls.
"You're Xu Xiangyang? I'm Gu Panyun's mother." Zhang Caihua frowned and looked him up and down.
He's quite good-looking, but unfortunately he's from a working-class family, which means he's destined not to be with Gu Panyun.
Xu Xiangyang nodded. "Hello, what can I do for you?"
He didn't need to ask to guess that they were probably there to protest. After all, they had lost their jobs, and the people were waiting right at the gate. Wasn't that obvious enough?
Zhang Caihua sneered and said, "You'd better not try anything with Pan Yun. You two are from different worlds. This will be better for you and your family."
Just a working-class family, and they want to marry her daughter? They'd be better off dreaming.
Xu Xiangyang narrowed his eyes. Good heavens, is this guy trying to threaten someone?
Do you really think he wouldn't dare to resist?
He said softly, "Didn't your son already say that before? What, do you think your son has a problem with his communication skills, so you're saying it again yourself?"
Xu Xiangyang really found this family interesting. Even when he was dating Gu Panyun, things hadn't gotten this serious, had they?
Based on their behavior, he almost felt that Gu Panyun was like a princess, someone he couldn't get close to.
Such a precious thing should just be left at home; what bizarre parents.
Zhang Caihua wasn't stupid; of course she could hear the sarcasm in his words.
She was a little angry and said through gritted teeth, "You've already lost your job, what makes you think you have the ability to go against our family?"
She's right. In this day and age, the cruelest thing is for an adult to lose their job.
How many workers can a family have? Once they lose their jobs, they lose their livelihood.
Xu Xiangyang smiled indifferently and said, "Show me what other skills you have."
