The newly married reborn cold-faced boss dotes on his delicate wife
Chapter 529: Married, then divorced
Jiang Tingxia was sitting at the table and saw He Zhihai call Li Changpu out and Nanfang followed him out. She did not say hello to the couple, nor did she have the nerve to go.
They hadn't come back for a long time, and with several important leaders absent, people began to speak more brazenly.
When Jiang Tingxia heard Li Changpu's name, his heart beat faster and his ears pricked up unconsciously, listening to everyone's conversation.
"This mission was completed so well. Commander Li has done a great job again."
"It's said that comparison kills. Others stay in the same position for more than ten years without being able to move. Commander Li's resume and his terrifying speed of promotion are like riding a rocket."
The man looked envious and said, "I think Chief He should be eyeing him as the next successor and is training him with great emphasis."
"To have achieved such success at the age of less than 30 is truly glorious and enviable."
When Jiang Tingxia heard them say this, he thought of last week's military newspaper, in which Li Changpu occupied a large section of the page. In the black-and-white photo, he was wearing a uniform and looking at the camera. Jiang Tingxia looked at his photo for a long time.
She knew that his life was bright and that he would rise step by step and have a bright future.
The man went on to gossip, "Not only that, Commander Lin's daughter has taken a fancy to Commander Li, and he will soon be the army commander's son-in-law. With Old Taishan's help, his development will not stop there."
Hearing this, Jiang Tingxia's face changed, he retracted his body and slightly turned sideways, looking a little depressed.
Duan Chengzhi, who was sitting at the same table with several men, heard the words "a perfect son-in-law". He picked up his wine glass and sneered. He and Lin An Ning grew up in the same compound, and he didn't know why she was obsessed with Li Changpu.
He said sarcastically, "What's the point of relying on women?"
Someone refuted him, "You can't say that. Commander Li has really made achievements. Otherwise, even a bad father-in-law can't help. A good iron must be made by its own hands."
No one who has worked with Li Changpu could find any fault with his work, so Duan Chengzhi could only smile awkwardly.
Someone tried to ease the atmosphere and joked, "It's just that I didn't expect Commander Li to be single. He's not young anymore, and his children should be old enough to help with the family. Why hasn't he gotten married yet? Could it be that he's been focusing on his work and not caring about other things, so the marriage has been delayed until now?"
"You don't know? Commander Li was married, but later divorced."
Hearing this, Jiang Tingxia's heart skipped a beat. She became a little nervous and clenched the hem of her clothes with her fingers.
There was constant discussion coming from another table.
"Yes, not many people know about this."
Some people were curious and urged the man to explain what was going on.
The man was full of gossip. "I heard that Commander Li married someone before, but that woman was a snob. He was seriously injured during a mission and almost crippled. That woman ran off with another man without saying a word."
Everyone exclaimed, they never imagined that Commander Li, who always had a sullen face and was serious, had such a tragic past.
"This is too much of a thing."
"It's unfortunate for Commander Li to marry a woman like this."
Jiang Tingxia lowered her head and listened. She felt uncomfortable in her heart and felt dizzy. She couldn't even hear clearly the words that were cursing her.
"Then why did Commander Li marry someone like that?"
"Because she's pretty. I heard Commander Li's ex-wife was a dance teacher in the cultural troupe. She's famous for her beauty. I guess Commander Li was bewitched by the pretty woman and didn't know how to judge people. He suffered such a big loss later."
"So, when you marry a wife, you should find someone who is content and can endure hardships. Look at Commander Li. He found a pretty girl, but kicked her out when something went wrong. It's really heartbreaking..."
When the man spoke to this point, his voice became lower and lower. Because the door was pushed open, the room gradually became quiet. The man then realized that it was Li Changpu who walked in.
He was not alone. Behind him was Lin Anning, who was smiling happily. She asked the man who was talking, "What did you say just now?"
The man was so scared that he was sweating. Seeing Li Changpu and Lin An Ning coming over and sitting down, he stood up and spoke haltingly, "Commander Li... I..."
Duan Chengzhi saw that he was speechless, so he looked at Lin Anning and tilted his head, "Speaking of Commander Li's ex-wife, we are speaking up for Commander Li."
Lin An Ning's expression changed instantly and he secretly looked at Li Changpu's expression.
Li Changpu never mentioned his ex-wife, and Lin Anning became more and more curious about what kind of person she was and whether Li Changpu still had feelings for her.
He has always refused to accept her. Is he still thinking about his ex-wife who abandoned him?
However, Lin An Ning never dared to mention these things. She vaguely felt that if she mentioned them, Li Changpu would be angry, so no matter how curious she was, she never asked.
Duan Chengzhi was upset when he saw Lin Anning peeking at Li Changpu, so he simply asked Li Changpu, "Commander Li, have you met your ex-wife again since your divorce?"
Li Changpu looked at Duan Chengzhi with some danger in his eyes.
Duan Chengzhi was looked at by Li Changpu's gloomy black eyes and avoided his gaze.
Lin Anning secretly tugged at Duan Chengzhi's arm, signaling him not to ask anymore. She looked at him anxiously, as if saying: Why are you asking him this?
Duan Chengzhi frowned at Lin An Ning. The two grew up together and had a tacit understanding. He asked with his eyes: What, don’t you want to know?
Li Changpu answered Duan Chengzhi's question without even glancing at Jiang Tingxia.
"No."
Duan Chengzhi said, "We haven't met again."
"Then do you know anything about your ex-wife?"
Seeing that Li Changpu's face was becoming more and more gloomy, Duan Chengzhi smiled and said, "Commander Li is now successful in his career. If your ex-wife knew about this, she would probably regret it."
"Have you ever thought about meeting her again and reminiscing about the past? Give that woman a slap in the face?"
Li Changpu did not answer, so Lin Anning asked quietly: "Brother Li, have you lost contact with your ex-wife? Do you know where she lives now?"
"You shouldn't have let her off so easily in the beginning. You can hold her accountable for her behavior."
Li Changpu's lips moved, and Jiang Tingxia heard a cold voice that pierced her heart like an ice sword.
“No contact.”
"She's dead."
He said, "Don't ever mention her again."
Jiang Tingxia had no idea what everyone was saying. She just felt that the room was so stuffy that she couldn't breathe, so she quietly left the room when no one was paying attention.
Li Changpu had already left and was standing at the corridor.
Jiang Tingxia thought of what he said.
"She's dead."
"Don't ever mention her again."
Lift your leg and walk in the other direction.
