When Chen Wentao saw the expression on his wife's face, he knew that changing rooms would be a bit tricky.
He actually didn't want to change, but there was no way. Secretary Wang had already spoken, and they were indeed in the wrong in this matter. It was originally agreed that the house should be lent to him for his marriage, and now they had been allowed to stay for two more years.
He cares more about his own face than a big house.
"Wife, I know you want to live in a big house, and we won't be stationed here forever. Can I find a yard manager from the team for the next project?"
He held his wife's hand and coaxed her patiently.
The geological team members follow the project.
It’s just that one project may last five to ten years, and we don’t know how long we will have to wait for the next project.
Li Licai doesn't want to wait for the next project, she just wants to live in a big house forever.
"No, I have to go see if Captain Liu really has a partner. Then you can discuss it with him. If it doesn't work out, you can just pay a symbolic amount of rent every month. It's not like you're living here for free."
Liu Yuzhou is cold and arrogant, and his aura is so strong that Chen Wentao doesn't want to run into a wall.
He and Liu Yuzhou have always tried to avoid dealing with each other as little as possible at work. When they wanted to change houses after their marriage, he still had to find an intermediary to talk to him, but he didn't expect the other party to agree.
He shook his head and rejected Li Li's proposal: "If you want to discuss it, you can go and discuss it. I won't go."
Li Li immediately shook off his hand and curled her lips in disdain: "If you can't find him, find his wife. Oh, forget it. Look at your little achievements. No wonder his job title is one level higher than yours."
Despite the provocation, Chen Wentao remained silent.
Li Li got angry when she saw his cowardly look, so she simply got up, dressed, and braided her hair in front of the mirror: "Forget it, I'll go talk to his girlfriend this afternoon."
Chen Wentao wanted to stop her, but thinking of Li Li's temper, he gave up. If they continued talking, they would start quarreling again.
Anyway, Liu Yuzhou is not someone that anyone can control, so just let your wife hit the wall. She will know the pain when she hits the wall.
He stood up and said, "You can do whatever you want. I'm going to work."
The disgust in Li Li's eyes deepened.
After lingering at home for a while, it was almost noon when she went out.
She is not stupid, she picks the weak ones.
Everyone knows Liu Yuzhou's reputation in the team. He is good-looking, has a good family background, is capable, and is very aloof. No one dares to provoke him.
But his partner may not be certain.
As long as you find out who Liu Yuzhou's girlfriend is, go talk to her before they get married.
It is this time difference that is being exploited. In order to establish herself as a gentle and virtuous person in the man's mind, the girl will definitely not argue with him and lose face.
By then, she will have the final say in everything, and at most she will lose some rent.
As for the rent, you have to listen to her about how much to pay and when to pay it.
Anyway, it's her child's lifetime, so no matter how much she cries about being poor, just delay it as much as possible.
Putting her own plans aside, Li Li prepared to go to the family building to ask the people from the Geological Team for information.
As luck would have it, I ran into Wang Li from Team 1 in the corridor.
Wang Li was covered in dust, and he still had his safety helmet on. The mud spots of varying shades on his yellow work clothes were extremely eye-catching, and there was also a spot on his pants, which contrasted sharply with the clean cloth bag in his hand.
He steadied his steps and nodded at her: "Sister-in-law."
Li Li glanced at the navy blue cloth bag in his left hand. She often saw his wife Wang Juan using this bag to exchange vegetables in the nearby village. Now it was bulging, and it was obvious that there was something in it.
Her attention shifted a little, and she asked curiously, "Is this something good for my sister-in-law, Mr. Wang?"
Wang Li pulled the corners of his mouth, and smiled a bit honestly:
"Well, I met a freight driver and exchanged some fruit for my family to try."
"Is there a freight run today? Is he still there?"
Li Li's eyes lit up. She hadn't eaten fruit for a long time.
"It's still at the gate. It's still in time for you to go there now."
After saying that, Wang Li turned around and prepared to go upstairs.
Li Li did not forget the purpose of going out and quickly got to the point:
"Engineer Wang, I have something to ask you. I heard your captain has someone to marry?"
Wang Li paused, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. How come he didn't know that the captain was dating someone? You can't talk nonsense about something that has no basis. The captain hates people spreading rumors the most.
He denied it: "No, our captain is busy with work every day, so how can he have time for a girlfriend?"
Li Li was also a little confused. Logically, the fact that Liu Yuzhou had a marriage partner should have attracted a lot of attention in the team. How come even the people in the team didn't know about it?
Is he hiding it on purpose?
She changed the question: "So, which female comrade has Captain Liu been close to recently?"
"Close?" Wang Li scratched the back of his head. Has there been any female comrade who has been close to Captain Liu recently?
Didn’t they just reject a female educated youth who sent them pickled vegetables yesterday? I guess the female comrades at the educated youth point won’t come to their team recently.
Eh, yesterday?
He thought of the woman he had rescued from the river and said truthfully, "Yesterday, our captain bravely rescued a woman from the river and personally took her to the clinic. He took leave today for something, so we didn't have time to ask what happened to her."
"Sister-in-law, I'm going home first."
Wang Li said nothing more and turned to go upstairs.
Li Li didn't get any useful information, but she was a little interested in the female comrade Liu Yuzhou rescued.
Would that Yama personally send female lesbians to the clinic?
Moreover, he saved someone yesterday and filed a marriage report today. Could it be that he is being blamed by someone?
Not likely, right?
With Liu Yuzhou's personality and temper, who can force him to do something he doesn't want to do?
Li Li shook her head and denied this speculation.
