"Do you want my dad and the others to hear this?"
Wang Xiumin's words chilled Xu Guangtian to the bone. Was she afraid that the old man would hear him slapping her?
That really hurts...
Although Xu Guangtian was heartbroken, he knew that Wang Xiumin was suffering even more than he was.
"Wife, please forgive me," he pleaded desperately, truly not wanting to lose her.
Wang Xiumin sighed. What could she do?
She now hates Xu Guangtian and has forgotten the hard times she spent with him.
In the end, Wang Xiumin forgave Xu Guangtian. In this day and age, divorce is simply impossible, let alone divorce.
The next day, when Xu Xiangyang got up and saw that the two of them looked calm, he knew that everything was alright.
However, he still couldn't forgive Xu Guangtian. What kind of man would forget his wife who had shared his hardships once he was doing well?
Besides, what kind of good life is this? It's just having a proper job.
After the meal, everyone went about their business.
When Wang Xiumin saw Xu Guangtian helping to collect the clothes, she grabbed her own clothes and said, "I don't need you, go do what you're supposed to do!"
She rolled her eyes, then turned and went inside.
Xu Guangtian stood there somewhat awkwardly, then turned to look at Xu Xiangyang.
"Son, go to work."
Xu Xiangyang rolled his eyes and didn't say anything. "If you don't go to work, do you think you'll live on air?"
He went out as soon as I pushed the door open; people like that need to be taught a lesson!
Xu Guangtian sighed. He had thought a lot that night and realized that he had indeed gone too far.
Besides, thinking back on it, that young widow wasn't all that great, was she?
Fortunately, nothing had happened between the two of them, otherwise he would have had even less of an explanation.
Although nothing happened between them, Wang Xiumin didn't know?
Comrade Wang Xiumin is now enacting a dramatic domestic drama in her own mind!
She was that unfortunate wife who had shared hardship and poverty. In order to protect her family, she raised the child, but in the end, her husband wanted to take a concubine.
Maybe she's pregnant by now...
Wang Xiumin felt increasingly wronged as she thought about it, and tears started streaming down her face.
When Xu Guangtian entered the house, he saw such a scene that he was so frightened that he almost knelt down.
He quickly closed the door behind him and whispered, "Honey, what's wrong now?"
He spent half the night comforting her, but then they both fell asleep because they were both so tired.
I thought he was all better, but I didn't expect him to start crying again.
Wang Xiumin wiped away her tears, looked at him, and asked, "Tell me the truth, you...you two did..."
"No, no!" Xu Guangtian said firmly, "Really, no, I just talked to that person a few more times, I didn't do anything."
Besides saying a few more words, he also brought a three-yuan silk scarf and an eight-mao face cream.
Of course, he touched her little hands; they were rough and calloused, not as nice as Wang Xiumin's.
Of course, he couldn't say that, otherwise his wife would know he was touching his hand.
Wang Xiumin glanced at him and knew he wasn't lying. They'd been together for over twenty years; even if he were lying, she could tell at a glance.
However, even so, she still felt uneasy.
But as long as that didn't happen and he turned back, she forgave him.
"Alright, hurry up and go to work." She pushed Xu Guangtian away, then took the child and went out.
Grandma Wang, who was in another room, looked over there and whispered, "These two have such a good relationship; they keep the door closed even in broad daylight."
It's quite nice that they can still be so affectionate at their age.
Wang Zhongshan frowned and said, "What are you saying? Whether the couple is doing well or not, what are you, as their mother-in-law, doing climbing through the window to peek at them?"
Grandma Wang rolled her eyes and said unhappily, "What do you mean by climbing through the window at home? You really don't like what you're saying."
"I've never been one to say anything pleasant my whole life, you know that, don't you?" Wang Zhongshan said, arms crossed, with a matter-of-fact expression.
Grandma Wang ignored him and said, "Didn't you say you were going to see the old commander this week?"
"Yes." Wang Zhongshan nodded. "We finally got in touch. We'll take Xiangyang with us in a few days."
He was in frequent contact with the old commander because of his eldest grandson, so he also brought Xu Xiangyang along this time.
...
After arriving at his workplace, Xu Xiangyang began researching and expanding his knowledge.
He needed to make the most of his time studying while Liao Shichang hadn't been assigned any work.
He was reading a book when Li Hongjun walked up to him.
"Comrade Xu, want to go out for a smoke?" he said with a smile.
Xu Xiangyang glanced at him. They were sitting closest to each other, but they usually didn't talk to each other.
But why did this person ask him to go out together?
Although he was puzzled, he still smiled and nodded, "Okay, let's go."
With that, he put down the documents in his hand and then followed them out.
Li Hongjun handed him a cigarette and was about to light it.
Xu Xiangyang took the cigarette, but didn't use his lighter, saying, "I have my own."
As he spoke, he lit a cigarette.
The two were just colleagues who had just met, and besides, he didn't know Li Hongjun's purpose, so there was no need for him to get involved.
Moreover, Li Hongjun was a senior colleague who had joined the company earlier than him, and he still couldn't accept the act of lighting a cigarette the first time.
Whether it's a leader outside or an elder at home, it's best not to accept a cigarette offered to you.
This is basic common sense.
Li Hongjun told him to order it himself and didn't say anything else.
"Secretary Xu, how have you been lately? Are you getting used to work?" He started making conversation.
Xu Xiangyang felt that everyone in the office knew exactly what kind of person he was.
But he still smiled and said, "Yeah, it's pretty good."
Being isolated by the entire secretary's office, how could things possibly get better!
However, he also understood that this was all Qin Qiuyu's doing. That person seemed to get along well with everyone in the office, and since Xu Xiangyang had given her a hard time that day, she had gathered everyone to isolate her.
Li Hongjun glanced at him. "You should know that Comrade Qin Qiuyu is a good person, but she has a terrible temper. Don't take it to heart; aren't they just colleagues?"
Xu Xiangyang raised an eyebrow and asked, "Secretary Li, are you here as a lobbyist? Does Secretary Qin know you're telling me all this?"
He initially thought that this person's sudden contact with him must be because something was wrong, but he never expected it to be this.
If it were Qin Qiuyu, he might be more forgiving, since she's a colleague and he wouldn't target anyone else if she didn't bother him.
But let Li Hongjun come over and say...
Something doesn't feel right.
Li Hongjun smiled and said, "No, Secretary Qin doesn't know about this. I just saw that you've been isolated and wanted you to get along with her better."
He meant well!
However, judging from Xu Xiangyang's expression, it seemed that this person had no intention of speaking softly to Qin Qiuyu.
This really confused him!
Why can't we all work together peacefully and steadily? Why be a troublemaker?
