Shangguan Qiang spent every day in worry and pain. He persuaded himself time and time again not to think about it. However, the concern in his heart could not be stopped just because he said so. The love for Yuhe could not be let go just because he said so. A love that had been loved for ten years, a love that could not be said could only be hidden deep in his heart, a place that could not be touched by others. Sometimes, when she thought about it, it was better to let go of such painful love. Perhaps it was also a kind of relief for herself. The highest state of love was not to love, but to forget. However, the problem was that their love was not even forgotten. Hiding their love in each other's hearts was not love, but conflict.
"Shangguan? Where are you? Come to our house for lunch today! Your sister-in-law has made noodles. If you want to eat, come over.”Shangguan Qiang smiled and put down the phone. Yes, it had been a long time since he had eaten authentic noodles from his hometown. As a person who grew up eating noodles, the taste of his hometown was a nostalgic feeling that he would never forget.
In a place like the military camp, the relationship between fellow countrymen was a very good smoother. As long as it was a province, they were all fellow countrymen. He and Chief of Staff Wu Bing were from the same county. They were in the same middle school, high school, and university, but Chief of Staff was three years older than him. The Chief of Staff treated him like a younger brother, and his sister-in-law did not treat him as an outsider. When there was nothing else, she would call him home for dinner. He liked to eat the noodles made by his sister-in-law the most. It had been a long time since he last went, and it was time for him to go. Sometimes, he was a little afraid of his sister-in-law. He was afraid because she kept introducing him to other women, scaring him. He always used excuses to avoid her, so he couldn't eat his favorite noodles.
"Sister-in-law, I'm here to make rice." Shangguan Qiang shouted at Wang Ling, the wife of the Chief of Staff, who was busy in the kitchen.
"Shangguan, I'm waiting for you to eat. What do you mean? You haven't come for a long time. Have you forgotten about your sister-in-law and nephew? Qiqi, look, our Chief Shangguan is here.”Sister-in-law shouted into the kitchen. He revealed a mysterious smile to Shangguan Qiang. Why did Shangguan Qiang feel that he had been schemed against again?
"Sis, you're here. Why are you shouting? Aren't I here?" His sister-in-law's younger sister came out of the kitchen. Shangguan Qiang took a look at her and smiled at her as a greeting. He was not used to having too much contact with girls other than Mei Yuhe. It was not that he wanted to, but he was unwilling.
"Shangguan, let me introduce you. This is my cousin, Wang Qi. She's a teacher at a junior high school in my hometown. It's summer vacation now, so she came to visit us.”Wang Ling pulled Wang Qi in front of Shangguan. Her meaning couldn't be more obvious. How could Shangguan Qiang not understand? However, Shangguan Qiang could only feign ignorance again.
"Teacher, hello. Welcome to Tibet. Is the Chief of Staff not back yet?”Shangguan Qiang changed the topic at the right time. He did not want his sister-in-law to bring up the following topic. All these years, he had only had eyes for Mei Yuhe and no other woman in his heart. Moreover, Mei Yuhe was still in the hospital. His heart was in a mess. How could he fall in love with another woman? That wouldn't be fair to them.
"I'm back. Aren't I back? When I walked to the door, I heard you guys talking about me. This isn't good. Talking about the leader behind his back. You don't want to stay in the army anymore.”The Chief of Staff smiled and punched Shangguan Qiang in the chest. Shangguan Qiang smiled. This was perhaps the most intimate way of greeting between them!
"Alright, let's eat. Shangguan, you have to eat more today. This meal was personally prepared by our Qiqi. You have to eat well!" Wang Ling looked at Qiqi and actually understood.
"Thank you, Sister-in-law. I'll definitely eat more. The Bureau Chief called me and asked me to come over for breakfast.”Shangguan Qiang's words made everyone burst into laughter.
"That's good, Shangguan. Today, you must have a good taste of Qiqi's cooking. It's really not bad. Your sister-in-law has been asking you to come over for dinner recently. I told her that you've just joined the bureau this year and were busy with work, so I didn't ask you over.”Wu Bing looked at Shangguan Qiang, and Shangguan Qiang looked back at Wu Bing. Actually, both of them knew that Shangguan Qiang was now Wu Bing's subordinate. Many people wanted to come to Wu Bing's house for dinner, but Wu Bing was not willing. They basically met every day, and only the two of them knew if they were busy with work. They smiled knowingly at each other. But in order to deal with the two people beside him, he had to pretend! Otherwise, the two of them could already imagine the consequences.
"It's alright. Everything is still in the familiarizing stage. Take it slow. Anyway, I'm working under you. If there's any problem, you have to bear more responsibility!”Shangguan Qiang looked at Wu Bing and said with a faint smile. Wu Bing gave him a helpless look.
After dinner, Wang Ling called Shangguan Qiang into the room and asked quietly,""Shangguan, what do you think of our Qiqi? She's four years younger than you. She had a boyfriend in her hometown, but they broke up. Qiqi wants to find a soldier. Your Chief of Staff thought of you, and so did your sister-in-law.”
Shangguan Qiang groaned in his heart. So it was really a banquet at the entrance of a trap. Sigh, what should I do? What should I do? Shangguan Qiang's heart kept beating like a drum. If he rejected her face to face, the Chief of Staff and his sister-in-law would definitely be embarrassed. If he agreed, wouldn't he be harming the girl?
"Sister-in-law, let's just get along for now. You know me, but I'm afraid Qiqi doesn't. You know me, I have a bad temper and I'm not capable. Besides, we don't have much money.”In fact, he was telling the truth, but he was also shirking.
"It's nothing. I've already told Qiqi about your situation, and she has no objections. Why don't you guys talk about it first? If it works out, forget it. Sister-in-law won't blame you. Marriage can't be forced. Besides, a forced melon is not sweet! Qiqi is my cousin, and your Chief of Staff has always treated you as his brother. Don't feel any pressure or burden.”Wang Ling looked at Shangguan Qiang. She didn't understand what this person was thinking. Such a good girl was standing in front of him, but he was not moved. Could it be that this kid still could not forget his ex-wife? If he could not forget her, why did he divorce her back then? This kid had someone else in his heart, but he had never heard of it!
