After the marriage, the strong beauty became rich and busy raising children

Chapter 111 Love for 7 Years

At noon, Gu Errong found Liu Nianqing's office.

On weekdays, after lunch, Liu Nianqing would go home. His home was in the county town.

He did not go back today, as if he was waiting for Gu Errong.

"Errong is here, come and sit down, have you eaten?"

Gu Errong said he had eaten and sat opposite Liu Nianqing.

Liu Nianqing made a cup of tea for Gu Errong and placed it in front of him.

"This is new tea from Yunnan. My friend sent it to me. You can try it."

After thanking him, Gu Errong said, "Director Liu, I know this is a bit abrupt, but now is not the time to assign new people. I want to know, how did Jiang Yan get to our bureau?"

Liu Nianqing took a sip of tea and said, "Why do you ask these questions?"

Gu Errong held the handle of the teacup and said, "Because she seems to be a girl from another province, I'm just asking out of curiosity."

Liu Nianqing said: "She did not come in through the normal allocation channel, but she has a stronger background. The county head introduced her to our bureau."

"County magistrate?"

Liu Nianqing nodded and said, "Her father seems to be an important leader in their province. I don't know why she insists on joining our Hydropower Bureau, but to be honest, I don't expect her to do anything. She might suddenly leave one day."

After coming out of Director Liu's office, Gu Errong went straight out to have lunch.

The cafeteria auntie took a leave recently, so a chef was hired temporarily who has a strong taste for food. When cooking, he sprinkled seasoning into the dishes as if it were free.

Gu Errong has always had a light diet and couldn't get used to it, so he has been eating out these days.

As soon as he walked across the street, he ran into Jiang Yan.

She must have gone shopping, carrying a plastic bag in her hand.

"Oh, Errong, what a coincidence, are you planning to go out for dinner? I haven't eaten yet either, why don't we go together?"

As she spoke, Jiang Yan enthusiastically took Gu Errong's arm.

Gu Errong gently pushed her hand away and said in a deep voice: "Jiang Yan, I'm already married."

Jiang Yan was stunned, bit her lip, and whispered, "Really? When did it happen? How come I don't know about it?"

"This May."

Moisture formed in Jiang Yan's eyes. She felt that she couldn't see clearly. Was all her persistence over the years wrong?

She tried hard to hold back her tears.

"Is she also in the Water and Electricity Bureau? Or in some other unit?"

Gu Errong shook his head and said, "Neither. She is in her hometown."

Jiang Yan looked at Gu Errong in disbelief and said, "What did you say? You mean she doesn't even have a job? She's a farmer?"

Gu Errong frowned and said, "I don't think there is anything wrong with being a farmer. In fact, she is building a factory. Maybe in the near future, she will become an entrepreneur."

Jiang Yan stared at Gu Errong in a daze and said, "But don't you think this kind of arranged marriage is boring? Errong, you are talented and capable. You deserve a wider world, instead of marrying a woman like this and living a mundane life."

Jiang Yan pulled Gu Errong's arm again and said excitedly: "As long as you are willing, I can ask my father to arrange a better job for you. Even if you want to start a business, my father can also provide you with connections and funds. Errong, I love you. I have loved you for so many years. Don't you see it?"

Gu Errong pulled his arm away without making a sound and said, "Jiang Yan, don't say these things anymore. I'll say it again, I'm married, I love my wife, and I value our family. I don't want anyone to destroy it."

"You love her? Errong, you actually said you love her? In an arranged marriage, you actually used the word love. I always thought that love in your eyes was sacred and deep. I never thought you would waste this word like this."

Gu Errong's face darkened, and he said coldly: "I'll say it again, I love my wife."

After saying that, Gu Errong walked forward.

"What about me?" Jiang Yan shouted, "What should I do?"

Gu Errong stopped, turned around and said, "I'm sorry."

"Is it all over with just a simple apology? It's been seven years. I've loved you for seven whole years. Why are you so cruel to me?"

Jiang Yan's tears rolled down.

Gu Errong really felt a headache. He didn't understand why this woman was so difficult to deal with. He had clearly rejected her before, but she just wouldn't give up.

"sorry."

"Is it an apology I want? What I want is you, Errong. I really love you. If I didn't know you were here, how could I give up my family and friends and come here?"

Jiang Yan burst into tears.

Gu Errong didn't know what to say. Until this moment, he realized how pale words were.

All he could say were words that hurt her.

But she was so upset, he really couldn't bear to say anything to irritate her.

Gu Errong softened his tone. He wanted to take her out to eat something, after all, she was unfamiliar with the place, but he was afraid that she would think too much, so he said, "I have something else to do. You should go eat something first. There are many restaurants about a hundred meters down this street."

After saying that, he strode away.

Not far away, Xie Yuanhang was hiding aside, secretly watching this scene.

At noon, Errong said he had something to do, so he came out to eat by himself.

He hadn't expected to meet either of them.

Although he didn't hear what they said, he could tell from the way Jiang Yan wiped her tears that the two had a special relationship.

He felt as if his heart was hit by a sledgehammer and it hurt.

The love he imagined ended before it even began.

He fled away, and only stopped to catch his breath when he reached another street.

Gu Errong went to the other side to eat a bowl of noodles, and when he returned to the department, Xie Yuanhang had already gone back.

He sat at his desk blankly, his chin in his hand, as if thinking about something.

Gu Errong handed over a can of Coke and said, "What did you eat? You're back so soon."

Xie Yuanhang came back to his senses and said, "I didn't eat anything. I don't have much appetite."

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

"No, I just don't want to eat." Xie Yuanhang opened the Coke, gulped down a few gulps, and said, "Errong, tell me, is fate really predestined?"

"Ok?"

"Do you think I am destined to be single for the rest of my life?"

Gu Errong smiled and said, "Why do you say that? You are only in your twenties. Isn't it too early to talk about a lifetime?"

Xie Yuanhang sighed, shook his head and said, "Love is a luxury to me after all. Errong, you are so lucky."

Gu Errong nodded and said, "Yes, I am very lucky. If I had compromised with my family before, or if Youshuang's sister didn't want to marry again, I would never have met love."
