Zhou Zhengting originally thought that couples should discuss things with each other.
Only as a family can we go further and better.
I also don't want to cause any rift between husband and wife because of such things in the future.
Especially since I had concealed something about work from her last time in Beijing, and I felt very guilty afterwards.
That's why I took the initiative to ask for some rules to make us more honest with each other.
I never knew that it would be my turn in such a short time.
It turned out that a leader from Beijing City came to inspect South Island these two days.
Everything was normal at the beginning, but the day before the leader left.
He suddenly called him over for a talk and expressed the hope that he could be transferred back to Beijing as soon as possible.
And this is not the first time.
Especially when I came back from the Philippines last time, I was strongly advised to stay in Beijing.
But this time, Zhou Zhengting could clearly feel the difference in the nature of the matter.
Last time, after all, I still consulted with him in a discussion.
This time, the leader's attitude was very firm.
It even sounded commanding, which made Zhou Zhengting very embarrassed.
So I didn't dare to refuse too absolutely at that time, and planned to wait until I saw my leader off.
I'll try to figure out a way to deal with it.
After all, he had suffered because of his bad temper last time.
Later, it was only after my father stepped in to talk things out that no one was offended.
But now Mr. Zhou has been retired for many years and no longer cares about these things.
Especially since he had already shown up last time, if he shows up again, I’m afraid it won’t be so effective.
It might even backfire.
So, Zhou Zhengting has been worrying about this matter these past two days, thinking about finding a more suitable person to mediate, so that it would be better to succeed in one go.
After thinking for a long time, Zhou Zhengting finally called his cousin Zhou Huiqin.
She knows many people in Beijing and has a wide network of contacts.
Even if I can't help directly, it shouldn't be a problem to give some advice.
So Zhou Zhengting specially arranged a time when no one was in the office to call Zhou Huiqin.
Zhou Huiqin was very surprised when she suddenly received a call from Zhou Zhengting during working hours.
It wasn't until I heard what he said that I finally understood it.
"This is indeed a bit tricky, but what I want to ask you is, are you sure you don't plan to come back?"
"I suggest you not to be too impulsive. After all, it's been so long, and you've made many contributions, both big and small. According to your current qualifications, you should be promoted again, but you haven't made any moves in a long time."
He knew what Zhou Huiqin said.
It’s just that South Island is a first-tier city and has limited room for growth.
It's totally incomparable with Beijing.
Even his predecessor as head of the regiment was promoted only after he was transferred away.
However, Zhou Zhengting didn't care much about these.
Then she smiled and said, "Sister Huiqin, you should know me. I think it's good to fight on the front line every day like this, really."
After hearing this, Zhou Huiqin just sighed helplessly.
"Would you please reconsider it?"
"At least you should discuss it with Qingyue first and ask for her opinion. Maybe she will support you. If you feel it's hard to say, I'll help you call Qingyue and tell her."
When Zhou Zhengting heard her say that, he quickly spoke up to stop her, "Sister, please don't call Qingyue."
"We will discuss this matter between ourselves. Please help me figure out how to solve it."
Zhou Huiqin paused, but finally agreed, "Okay, I'll discuss this with your brother-in-law when we get home tonight. If he really doesn't come back, we'll see what to do."
"But don't be so hasty to refuse. You've suffered from your stubborn temper before."
Zhou Zhengting smiled and said, "Okay, I get it. Don't worry, I won't be as reckless as last time!"
Finished calling Zhou Huiqin.
Zhou Zhengting began to think about how to better talk to Jiang Qingyue about this matter.
If I said it too lightly, she would definitely not believe it and would definitely go to Sister Huiqin to ask.
If I make the interests involved too serious, she will definitely drive me back to Beijing.
After two days of struggling with this, Zhou Zhengting finally made up his mind to talk to her about it in the evening.
In fact, Jiang Qingyue also noticed something strange about Zhou Zhengting in the past two days.
Ever since he heard that the leader who had been inspecting had returned to Beijing, he suddenly became much freer.
Stay at home when you have nothing to do, and don’t go out if you can.
When he goes to bed at night, he always looks like he is thinking about something and seems to be hesitant to speak.
Originally Jiang Qingyue was planning to have a chat with him that evening.
But Zhou Zhengting took the initiative to speak first, "Wife, I want to discuss something with you."
Jiang Qingyue's heart tightened, thinking that she had guessed right - he had something to do.
At the same time, he remained calm on the surface, "What's the matter? You look very serious, is there something serious?"
Zhou Zhengting curled his lips and said, "It's not a big deal. It's just that we made a rule last time. I think I should discuss it with you no matter how big or small it is."
Then, Zhou Zhengting told him about the talk his leader had brought to him a few days ago.
After Jiang Qingyue heard this, her first reaction was to say happily, "Should I call you Chief Zhou from now on?"
Seeing her heartless smile, Zhou Zhengting sighed helplessly, "Silly, are you so happy?"
"Since the leader said so, it is an affirmation of your ability and qualifications. Moreover, you can be promoted to a leader at such a young age. Of course, I am happy for you."
"You didn't understand, I'm going back to Beijing."
Jiang Qingyue put away her smile, her expression a little complicated.
"I understand. Have you refused?"
Zhou Zhengting shook his head. "Not yet. I think it's not a good idea to reject him directly. It will also make the boss embarrassed. So I plan to think about how to reject him first."
Jiang Qingyue nodded, "You really don't plan to go?"
Zhou shook his head decisively, "You and the child are here, I'm not going anywhere."
Jiang Qingyue lowered her head and thought for a moment, then asked, "Have you talked to Sister Huiqin? She might have a solution."
"Well, I told her about it. She told me not to reject it right away and to wait until she and my brother-in-law can think of a solution."
After saying that, Jiang Qingyue nodded in agreement, "Sister Huiqin is a reliable person, so it's definitely right to ask her opinion on this matter. So don't be so hasty to refuse, let's think about it again."
Zhou Zhengting hummed, "I was mainly afraid that you would get angry if I kept it from you like last time, so I told you in advance."
"But this doesn't mean I'm hesitating. I won't leave you three in South Island. You must understand this."
Jiang Qingyue hummed softly.
On the surface, I smiled at him and didn't take it seriously.
But as soon as I turned off the lights, my heart started to feel confused.
