Face it calmly
Xiaolong's husband, Xu Zhijun, hastily asked, "Xiaolin, what's wrong? Are you okay? If not, we'll head back?"
Wang Xiaolin certainly knew Xu Zhijun's good intentions, but she also didn't know why she refused Xu Zhijun. "Goodbye, it's not easy to have a chance for a free trip, just go to the island and play."
"Alright then." Xu Zhijun also knew that this time, the accommodation was not for people of the same sex together, but rather friends or family members staying together, because they were originally going out to play in pairs.
The time to board the ship had arrived, and a director of the newspaper immediately organized everyone to get on board. The ship was not big or small, it was chartered, and could accommodate around five or six hundred people, which was also the reason why the newspaper organized them to go out in batches.
"Is your boss going out with you too?" Tang Zhendong and Yu Qingying stood at the bow of the ship after boarding, and Tang Zhendong pointed to Hu Wenxuan who was also boarding and said to Yu Qingying.
"Oh, who knows, he's the leader, can't let him go?"
"It's not me who won't let him go, it's heaven that doesn't allow him to leave." Tang Zhendong said with a serious face.
"I don't believe it," said Yu Qingying, although she wasn't quite sure if President Hu Wenxuan had followed them. How could sending someone off involve sending them onto the ship? If he wanted to remind everyone to be careful, he could have done so before boarding or just made a phone call. He didn't need to come in person; it would have been enough to send his reminders with someone else.
Since Hu Wenxuan got on the boat, he must be going with them. Yu Qingying didn't believe Tang Zhendong's words. However, she only expressed her own views and didn't say much to Tang Zhendong, but the meaning of not believing was very clear.
"What are you talking about?" Wang Xiaolin and Xu Zhijun found Tang Zhendong and Yu Qingying, and asked as they approached.
"Huh? Weren't you guys going to rest in your cabins? Why are you coming out again?" Yu Qingying came over and pulled Wang Xiaolin's hand.
"Yes, we were originally going to rest in the cabin, but it was too stuffy inside. Besides, it's only half an hour's journey, and we'll arrive soon. It's just right to take a look at the sea and feel the sea breeze."
"Yeah, come out and play, take a look at the ocean, throw away unhappy things, and your mood will naturally improve."
Wang Xiaolin felt that Yu Qingying's words had a hidden meaning, as if she knew about her and Tang Zhendong's relationship. However, on Yu Qingying's face, there was more of a natural expression. Wang Xiaolin looked into Yu Qingying's eyes and found only sincerity inside. So she quickly changed the subject, "What were you guys talking about just now? Tell me!"
"Just now someone wanted to make a bet with me," Yu Qingying nodded in the direction of President Hu Wenxuan, "He said that the president didn't go to Kungtong Island for fun, but came to send us off!"
"Haha, I was just saying he definitely can't go to Huangshan Island for fun, I didn't say he came to see us off."
Xu Zhijun is a well-known talented person in the newspaper office, his articles are written very well and are highly valued by leaders. "No, I heard that the president is indeed going with us."
"Yes, if the boss doesn't go, then there's no need to get on the boat at all. Whether it's to see someone off or to remind them of safety, there's simply no need to get on the boat." Wang Xiaolin also chimed in to help Yu Qingying speak.
Wang Xiaolin actually originally wanted to help Tang Zhendong speak, and incidentally make up for the harm she had caused him in the past. As soon as she got on the boat, she hid in the cabin, a little afraid of seeing Tang Zhendong. As soon as she saw Tang Zhendong, she couldn't help but think of how Tang Zhendong's eight years in prison were because of her own lack of courage to stand up for him. She felt deep remorse in her heart.
However, when she got to the back of the cabin, Wang Xiaolin felt that doing so seemed a bit too obvious, and if she deliberately kept her distance from him, wouldn't it intensify his bad feelings towards her? Wang Xiaolin's heart was filled with anxiety. She thought carefully about how after meeting Tang Zhendong, there was no sign of blame in his eyes, his expression and movements were all very natural, when he should joke around, he would naturally make a joke, as if nothing had happened between them.
However, Wang Xiaolin saw from Tang Zhendong's eyes that the way he looked at her and Yu Qingying was clearly different, it was affection. And since Yu Qingying arrived at the newspaper office, she seemed to have no other thoughts about anyone, instead rejecting many young men's pursuits, apparently she also liked Tang Zhendong.
In that case, she should make amends with them to make up for the great harm done to Tang Zhendong. With Yu Qingying's good family background and beauty, would she like Tang Zhendong, a former prisoner who spent eight years in labor camp? However, Yu Qingying knew about Tang Zhendong spending eight years in prison.
In the cabin, thinking back and forth, Wang Xiaolin's mind became more and more confused. "Zhi Jun, let's go out for some fresh air!"
Xu Zhijun, although having established a relationship with Wang Xiaolin, was still in the honeymoon phase and was extremely obedient to her. Whatever ideas Wang Xiaolin proposed, Xu Zhijun naturally wouldn't oppose them.
The two of them had just left the cabin when they saw Tang Zhendong and Yu Qingying. "Let's go over and talk to them," Wang Xiaolin also opened up her mind, since what was done could not be undone, she might as well face it calmly.
。。。。。。。。
When Wang Xiaolin, who was originally going to support Tang Zhendong, heard Xu Zhijun's words, she also gave up. She believed Xu Zhijun because Xu Zhijun had always been close to the editor-in-chief, and the editor-in-chief was a high-ranking officer under Hu Wenxuan, so it was not surprising that Xu Zhijun knew the president's whereabouts.
If she blindly helped her relatives without reason, it would be too obvious, so Wang Xiaolin rationally chose to support Xu Zhijun and Yu Qingying.
Everyone said that Hu Wenxuan was here on vacation, and Tang Zhendong did not express any opposition, because he knew that Hu Wenxuan was indeed here on vacation. This could be seen from his enthusiastic conversation with Yu Qingying and himself by the shore.
Why is Hu Wenxuan, who has always been tough on the outside, so attentive to Qing Ying? Tang Zhendong wouldn't think of their relationship in a romantic way like many people at the newspaper would. If Hu Wenxuan had taken a liking to Qing Ying, he wouldn't be so friendly and courteous to him. Putting himself in others' shoes, if Tang Zhendong liked someone and someone else tried to steal her away from him, Tang Zhendong would stop at nothing to destroy that person - this was the philosophy of life he learned in prison.
Hu Wenxuan's performance reminded Tang Zhendong of Yu Qingying's independent villa in the municipal government compound. Only the municipal party secretary or mayor could live in an independent villa in the compound, which was determined by their rank. Coincidentally, Haicheng City had a mayor with the surname Yu.
These things, you can guess for yourself, but Hu Wenxuan, who does party and government text work, can't? He can see that although Yu Qingying hasn't publicly revealed her identity, Tang Zhendong can tell from the eyes of Yu Qingying's other colleagues. There are only admiring glances from men and jealous glances from women, but no reverent glances that should be reserved for someone with Yu Qingying's status.
