Chapter 700: Achieving Both Ends
opped eating his steamed bun and slowly stood up. He stared intently at Chen Hong who had just gotten out of the car. 。Today, Chen Hong is wearing a powder-pink sleeveless dress, with fishtail braids...Sima Yue smiled and said, "Certainly" 。 Sima Yue stood up and said, "Let's go." 。"
Chen Hong was startled and asked, “Where are you going” Sima Yue said, “I’m going to Jingzhou with you.” 。On the surface, I'm here in Jingzhou for a research trip to the Organizational Department of the Municipal Committee. In fact, I want to have a chat with Xiao Jingyu. 。The smile on his face was enigmatic, as if he were smiling yet not smiling. 。Chen Hong was even more astonished. As far as she knew, Sima Yue should like Xiao Jingyu and want to be with Xiao Jingyu. 。Now that he hears Xiao Jingyu is pregnant, he merely changes his expression and pales, but doesn't rage. 。Is this kind of reaction normal Chen Hong couldn't help but ask, "Minister Sima, are you really in love with Xiao Jingyu"
Sima Yue seemed to see through Chen Hong's question and said, "Of course" 。But, the kind of "liking" between me and Xiao Jingyu is not what you understand. 。We have transcended those superficial feelings. 。"Chen Hong looked at Sima Yue and said, “Me and Xiao Zheng, we have already surpassed the simple feeling of ‘liking’" 。" Sima Yue said: 'Let us each take what we need and cooperate with each other.' " 。
Line it is.
Chen Hong thought of another thing, “But you’re the Minister-in-Charge, shouldn’t you have sent out a notice several days in advance for your field research” Sima Yue said: “There are many types of research. Some require advance appointments, some are impromptu visits. We use them as needed. As the Deputy Minister of Organization, you should be able to adapt accordingly, right” Chen Hong smiled and said: “Of course.” 。So, the two of them walked out of Sima Yue's office together. 。Chen Hong took Sima Yue's car and headed towards Jingzhou City. 。The Provincial Committee Organization Department Office utilized their lunch break to issue a notice to the Jingzhou Municipal Committee and the Municipal Committee Organization Department. To ensure a smooth preparation for the meeting organized by the Hua Capital Organizational Department, Minister Sima personally went to Jingzhou City to investigate the training work of young cadres. The municipal party committee's in-charge deputy secretary was also requested to participate. 。At four o'clock in the afternoon, Sima Yue was already in the city committee meeting room. 。Besides provincial Party Committee Organization Department Minister Sima Yue, there is also a deputy minister, cadre office director, and civil servant management office director from the provincial government present at the venue. 。Jingshi City was attended by Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee Xiao Jingyu, Organization Minister Jiang Pengpeng, Deputy Minister Chen Hong, Deputy Director of the Municipal Party Committee Office Li Haiyan, as well as cadres, civil servants and relevant department directors. 。Because the Provincial Committee Organization Department minister came in person, and the city committee had the deputy secretary attend, we raised the reception standard. The meeting was not held within the organization department, but at the city committee and municipal government conference center. 。At this time, Xiao Jingyu didn't want to attend this meeting. Sima Yue, Chen Hong and others were not only colleagues but also had personal entanglements. Xiao Jingyu really didn't want to run into them. 。It is possible to inform the higher-ups that the relevant deputy secretary in charge should attend, Xiao Jingyu is in the city and there's no way to decline, so he has to attend. 。The meeting proceeded according to the usual procedures, and Sima Yue did not show any special favoritism towards Xiao Jingyu during the meeting. 。In the eyes of everyone, this was just a normal survey, the only difference being that the notification came very suddenly. Minister Sima said he'd come and he did. 。But, the minister of organization always does things in a hurry and gets angry easily. Everyone is used to it and doesn't mind. 。All stages, including reporting, exchange of views, and putting forward requirements, have finally come to an end. 。During this period, Xiao Jingyu felt unwell three times and morning sickness began to torment her again. 。But she, with the greatest willpower, pushed down the nausea and dizziness. When it became too apparent, she would excuse herself to the restroom to cover it up. 。Li Haiyan understood Xiao Jingyu's feelings very well. Every time Xiao Jingyu went out, she would accompany him diligently by his side. 。Although Xiao Jingyu tried her best to cover it up, those who didn't know thought she had just drunk too much water. However, Sima Yue and Chen Hong knew the truth like a mirror. 。Chen Hong thought in her heart, but hopefully the goods in Xiao Jingyu's belly weren't made together with Xiao Zheng! Sima Yue, however, thought, "Jingyu, why bother yourself so much If you could let go of the unpleasant memories of the past and agree to be with me, I can not only give you wealth and honor, but also peace and happiness. How could you be so hard on yourself"
But no matter what, Xiao Jingyu made it through! After the meeting, Xiao Jingyu said to the department head Jiang Pengpeng: "Department Head Jiang, I have something to do tonight, so I can't accompany Minister Sima. You will have to go with him. As the department head, you might as well chat more with Minister Sima." 。"Jiang Pengpeng was a little surprised. Generally, when the Minister of Organization came down, city leaders would scramble to accompany him. Today, even Secretary Tan Zhen of the Municipal Party Committee had said in advance that he must accompany Minister Sima in the evening. Unexpectedly, Xiao Jingyu took the initiative to give up this good opportunity!
But Xiao Jingyu said he had something to do, Jiang Pengpeng couldn't force him, so he could only say: "Secretary Xiao, don't worry, I will definitely accompany..." 。However, at this time, Sima Yue said: “Secretary Xiao, regarding the training of young cadres, I would like to hear your opinion separately. It won't take up too much of your time, just ten minutes or so.” 。。"Xiao Jingyu couldn't refuse either, but she said, "There's no need to arrange another place. We can just stay in this conference room." 。"Sima Yue didn't have any objections either, and said: "That's right, right here in this conference room." 。As long as you guys give us some space to talk one-on-one. 。Jiang Pengpeng naturally understood and immediately said, “Okay, everyone go outside. Let’s leave the conference room for the leaders.” 。A crowd poured out. 。After a while, only Sima Yue and Xiao Jingyu were left in the conference room. The atmosphere suddenly became quiet. 。This conference room, because of the city committee leaders' concerns, does not install surveillance, so Sima Yue is not worried that the conversation between the two will be eavesdropped on. 。He smiled at Xiao Jingyu and said, "Jingyu, our relationship is so close, you've had such a big thing happen, why didn't you tell me!" Xiao Jingyu's heart thumped silently. Did Sima Yue know something But she wouldn't reveal the secret to him under any circumstances. She said, "What are you talking about" Sima Yue shook his head slightly and said, "Jingyu, I know you're pregnant!" These words made Xiao Jingyu's head feel as if lightning had struck it. 。She was determined to keep her pregnancy a secret from Xiao Zheng, but she didn't expect it to be impossible to hide. What was most worrisome was that Sima Yue, who shouldn't have known, found out. 。Xiao Jingyu neither admitted nor denied. 。Sima Yue, from Xiao Jingyu's expression, confirmed the matter. A distorted smile flashed across his face as he said, "Jingyu, this child, shouldn't be Xiao Zheng's, right"
At this time, Xiao Jingyu stubbornly raised her head and said, "It's Xiao Zheng's, my child with Xiao Zheng!" Originally, she could have kept it a secret from him, but when Sima Yue said, "This shouldn't be Xiao Zheng's, right", she had to tell him. This is Xiao Zheng's child, she just didn't want to hide the fact that Xiao Zheng was the father!
Before this, Xiao Jingyu had always wanted to keep it a secret, but now that the matter was exposed, she knew she couldn't hide it anymore. 。Since she couldn't hide it anymore, she absolutely couldn't let the child be fatherless, and she had to make it clear that Xiao Zheng was the child's father, not anyone else!
Sima Yue shook his head in disappointment and said: "Jingyu, you should know that your family will never allow you to marry Xiao Zheng! Don't you see this yet" Xiao Jingyu said: "It's not like that! As long as Xiao Zheng returns from aiding Ning, I can marry him" 。" Sima Yue chuckled and said, "But what about before that Do you think Xiao Zheng will be back right away Before he gets back, can your belly stay from getting bigger How could this possibly be hidden"
In fact, Xiao Jingyu also knew it wouldn't be so easy to hide, but she didn't want to bother Xiao Zheng, and she was always trying to find a way. Perhaps when her belly became a bit noticeable, she would take sick leave or something like that." 。To be specific, she hasn't quite figured it out yet. 。 Sima Yue said: “I know, you guys had a bet with the family. If Xiao Zheng returns after two years of poverty alleviation, he will get married.” 。But now you and Xiao Zheng have broken that promise, becoming pregnant before marriage. 。Within your family, this child would never have been born! You should be very clear about that. 。Xiao Jingyu subconsciously put her hand on her lower abdomen, as if worried that someone would hurt the child. Subconsciously, she wanted to protect her own child. This is the innate protective instinct of every mother, isn't it 。 Sima Yue looked at Xiao Jingyu and said, "Jingyu, you should be clear that once your father and family know about your pregnancy, they will definitely ask you to abort the child immediately. 。Xiao Jingyu glared at Sima Yue, resolutely saying: “I will never abort the child I have with Xiao Zheng.” 。 Sima Yue said: "This is probably beyond your control. Your family will take measures." 。Xiao Jingyu's eyes showed a trace of fear. Whether it was her father Xiao Xingshi, her uncle Xiao Xinhao, or her aunt Xiao Xingyun, they all, from the perspective of their own interests and the interests of the family, would not want her to be with Xiao Zheng, but would rather have her with Sima Yue. 。Now, she and Xiao Zheng are already in a committed relationship, which would likely provoke their anger, forcing her to have an abortion or take some other measure to terminate the pregnancy. Could they do such a thing Would they be capable of it Xiao Jingyu truly couldn't say for sure. 。She only knew that any possibility of existence, might be a threat to the child, and couldn't be ignored. 。At this time, Sima Yue laughed again and said, "Jingyu, I wholeheartedly care for you, and you should know that." 。You want children, I want to be with you, actually our demands are not contradictory. 。I have a suggestion for you, which could be a win-win situation. 。"Would you like to hear it"
Xiao Jingyu felt she was backed into a corner at this point. Sima Yue said there was a solution that benefited both parties, so she couldn't help but look up and ask, "What is it" Hearing his words, her heart skipped a beat: “No way Another earthquake Today we saw lightning and thunder in the sky, and we were puzzled why such abnormal celestial phenomena suddenly appeared But...
