Zhong Qing was startled at first, then he smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm just... a little busy at work recently..."

"Are you a little busy at work, or are you a little frustrated at work?" Jin Xuejiao did not shy away from asking, piercing the abscess in Zhong Qing's heart, "Or do you think God is unfair? Why can Lin Jianying be promoted out of turn..."

"Stop talking!" Zhong Qing suddenly raised his voice, his eyes full of resistance.

But Jin Xuejiao was not afraid. Instead, she felt relieved when she saw Zhong Qing like this.

If you puncture the abscess, it will inevitably leave a foul smell and decay. But as long as you apply medicine in time and bandage it carefully, there will be no hidden dangers!

Jin Xuejiao took a deep breath, slowed down her tone, and gently held Zhong Qing's hand: "Husband, I know you have always worked hard and you have always been excellent. However, everyone has their own life trajectory. Lin Jianying has his own way, and you have yours too."

"My path? Jiaojiao, I'm a provincial party committee selected student. Do you know what that means?" Zhong Qing smiled, but in Jin Xuejiao's opinion, behind every inch of his smile was bitterness and sorrow: "Our group is born to be promoted faster than ordinary civil servants..."

"But Lin Jianying, under the protection of his father, skipped a grade every two years... skipped a grade every two years. He is obviously younger than me, but he has become my equal so quickly..."

When Zhong Qing said this, he held Jin Xuejiao's hands tightly, buried his head in her arms, and continued in a voice that only the two of them could hear:

"I thought that after he became a deputy director, his deputy-department-level father would not have such great power, right? Unexpectedly, he had good vision and found a good partner. This time, the provincial official came to protect him and promoted him directly out of turn!"

In fact, when it comes to finding a partner, Zhong Qing always thought that he was firmly ahead of Lin Jianying.

After all, Jin Xuejiao is a civil servant and a rich second-generation. Isn't this much better than Lu Mingjun, who has a miserable life?

Who would have thought that Lu Mingjun suddenly had a relationship with the provincial party secretary, while Jin Xuejiao was still the simple and passionate Jin Xuejiao.

But Zhong Qing would not say this. At this moment, he could only make up for himself in other ways:

"Besides, Jiaojiao, do you know that the reason he made an exception for the promotion was that I did all the preliminary work for the digital economy project... How can I be willing to accept this?"

After saying this, Zhong Qing said no more.

Regardless of the considerations, at this moment, Zhong Qing chose to analyze his truest thoughts in front of his little wife.

Now, the choice is Jin Xuejiao's.

However, Zhong Qing overestimated himself and underestimated Jin Xuejiao.

He thought Jin Xuejiao would be extremely moved and would understand his behavior...

However, Jin Xuejiao was only shocked for a moment before she asked, "Do you suspect that... Lin Jianying teamed up with Xiao Junjun to steal your credit... and then Lin Jianying took all the benefits for himself..."

Zhong Qing did not answer, but looked at Jin Xuejiao steadily: "Jiaojiao, what do you think?"

Jin Xuejiao shook her head and said, "I don't know, but I believe Xiao Junjun is not such a person!"

Zhong Qing lowered his eyes upon hearing this and did not continue speaking.

"Hubby, don't feel unfair. We in China value inheritance!" Jin Xuejiao held Zhong Qing's hand and said patiently, "I just want to ask you, if our child enters the system in 20 years, won't you give him advice and protect him?"

Zhong Qing moved his fingers.

He knew that when the time really came, he would want to give up everything he had and support his child to reach a height he had never reached before!

"You are now the director of the Municipal Science and Technology Bureau. How many people dream of this position, and how many people cannot get it?" Jin Xuejiao continued, "Husband, I am proud of you, and I think you should be proud of yourself too!"

"As for Lin Jianying... Actually, compared to others, I hope he can get a high position! At least, with my relationship with Xiao Junjun, if I need help from him in the future, I will know which way the door is facing, right?"

What Jin Xuejiao said was very realistic. At least since Lin Jianying has reached a high position, everyone can still have some friendship, right?

Zhong Qing listened to Jin Xuejiao's words, and the irritability and unwillingness in his heart gradually subsided. He turned his head and looked at Jin Xuejiao's bulging belly, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes: "Jiaojiao, I..."

"Hubby, I know you're not feeling well. But, I hope you can sober up!" Jin Xuejiao gently patted the back of Zhong Qing's hand, "We're going to have our own child soon. Even if it's not for ourselves, even if it's just for the child, you can't make a mistake. By then, everything will be too late!"

Zhong Qing was silent for a moment, then nodded slowly: "Jiaojiao, don't worry, I will adjust as soon as possible!"

Jin Xuejiao smiled when she heard this. She knew that Zhong Qing was a smart man, and as long as she figured it out, she would be able to do it.

"By the way, I want to discuss something with you!" Jin Xuejiao quickly changed the subject: "As for your parents, when do you think you can let them go back?"

Zhong Qing was slightly stunned when he heard this, then frowned: "They do have old-fashioned ideas, which are different from ours. But sometimes I have social events outside, and I am worried about you being alone at home..."

"I think this isn't a question of whether or not you can be at ease," Jin Xuejiao pouted. "Your mother would like me to replicate her pregnancy period exactly as it was when she was pregnant with you... Tell me, how is this possible?"

"And I think that if we continue to live together, it will not be conducive to the harmonious relationship between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law. You know, I have been having a lot of mood swings recently. Sometimes when I am in a bad mood, I can't control what the old couple thinks!"

Jin Xuejiao: Anyway, let me give you a heads up. If you insist on keeping your parents at home, don't blame me for being unsportsmanlike!

Zhong Qing listened to Jin Xuejiao's complaints and understood her little thoughts.

Between two evils, choose the lesser one. Zhong Qing made the decision almost instantly!

"I think what you said makes sense. The key is that we do need some private space." Zhong Qing pretended to be nice, and then continued, "Well, I will talk to them later and let them go back to live."

Jin Xuejiao: You're smart, otherwise I could kill the father and keep the son!

At the same time, in front of the Jin family, the Lu Mansion was also brightly lit.

"Mingjun, you see I will be completely gone next week, would you consider going with me to see my father-in-law... It just so happens that the house has been decorated quite nicely, you can go and see if you are satisfied with it..."

(I was not feeling well in the past two days, so I could only update one chapter a day. This book is written with great emotion, so I thought, I won’t force myself to write a lot, but I must write it very well…)
