This is definitely not what Tang Lin wants. He can fall in love freely and get married. His relationship and marriage will not be kidnapped by politics. This is the bottom line in his heart.
So he instinctively refused, "No, I won't compromise because of this."
The female mayor naturally knew what kind of temper he had and was not angry because Tang Lin was not unwilling to make it public but unwilling to do so.
"Let's invite a few close people and good friends to hold a small engagement ceremony in a small area. This is my wish."
"I'm not young anymore, and I've always attached great importance to this kind of thing. You have to respect me this time, you know?"
Tang Lin didn't respond for a long time. The publicity of the relationship between the two would have a greater impact on the female mayor than him. Of course, he would inevitably be called a freeloader, but he didn't care about that. Those who clean up will clean up themselves. He has always
No explanation will be given on this matter.
Just like when he was kicked out of the army, he didn't make any excuse.
"Okay, if you like it, let's do it, but wait until I take care of Shang Tang's matter, okay?" In fact, Tang Lin was still struggling, and this was one of the rare times when the two had a dispute.
"What if I insist on doing it now?" The female mayor did not flinch.
"You know that my health is not good yet, and I have to work hard. Shang Tang's affairs will be settled in about two months, and the military conscription will be over in two months. At that time, we will discuss it carefully and hold a proper engagement ceremony." Tang
Lin's stubbornness increased again.
"Tang Lin, are you running away from me?" the female mayor suddenly asked.
Tang Lin was stunned for a moment, then began to feel distressed, and exhaled, "Yes, I am escaping. I am not sure whether my illness is cured yet. If it is not cured, I will cure it before marrying you. Husband and wife need more than just
Emotional and physical relationships are also very important, after all we have all seen the tragedy of Su Xing and Cai Tingting."
Tang Lin actually said such words and actually admitted it. This made the female mayor's heart begin to hurt, but she felt even more sorry for Tang Lin opposite him. This man who was 11 years younger than him had always been responsible for his age and identity.
The danger and pressure were extremely inconsistent. She was originally determined to help him get out of the predicament, but she didn't expect that in the end, it was him who was protecting him, not her.
She is a strong woman, and perhaps her appearance is so beautiful that most people ignore her inner strength, but she is still an independent, rational and brave person.
"Tang Lin, I understand your thoughts and concerns, but I have confidence in your recovery. From your point of view, it makes sense, but from my point of view, if I give up on you at this time, who will I become? I
I'm not afraid that your recovery will be slow. To put it bluntly, I will just pretend that you don't have a man until you recover. I have lived alone for so many years without a man, and there have been no problems. What's more, you are by my side.
It itself makes me feel stable and happy.”
"Indeed, a purely platonic marriage is not realistic, but we are very different from Su Xing and Cai Tingting. After all, Su Xing has never had a man, and Cai Tingting is still the first child. We have enjoyed the joy of men and women for a long time.
.I have no regrets. On the contrary, I will work with you to treat the disease with confidence."
"One more thing, actually, the reason why we didn't make our relationship public before was because I put my career before love and marriage. But now I think differently. A woman at my age doesn't have a husband or children.
Then life will be incomplete, so I have made up my mind to marry you and have a baby. I am not trying to accommodate you and take care of you, but I am changing my previous decision."
"I'm older than you, but I'm a woman, your woman, and I've never been willful in front of you. Tang Lin, can you just let me be willful this time?"
By the end of the speech, the female mayor was already in tears. Although Tang Lin couldn't see her from hundreds of kilometers away, he could feel it.
He could only mutter to himself, "You are such a fool. You jumped into the fire pit even though you knew it. You will regret it."
The female mayor replied while wiping her tears, "If you regret it, I won't regret it either."
…
After hanging up the phone, Tang Lin couldn't calm down for a long time. What he said just now was from his heart. He would not drag others down, especially the woman he loved. But looking at it now, things did not develop in the direction he hoped. Could it be that he really
Do you want to be publicly engaged to the female mayor at such a delicate time?
Although he had agreed just now, he still felt uncomfortable in his heart. He was this kind of person in front of women. It didn't matter how he protected and sacrificed. He felt that it was what he should do, but if a woman made sacrifices for him, then he
I will never get over this hurdle in my heart.
Character determines destiny, and character also determines emotional intelligence, which is why his emotional intelligence has never been high. He is getting engaged, and he is getting engaged to the female mayor.
Phew, maybe this is the sign that a man has truly grown up.
He is 26 years old and 27 in New Year's Eve. Fortunately, he feels that neither too big nor too small is just right. As for the female mayor, from the first moment he saw her, he felt that she was about the same age as him. The actual situation is also that he stands with the female mayor.
When they are together, everyone would think that the two are of the same age and that they are a couple made in heaven.
His original wish was to get engaged and take the female mayor on a trip abroad, even if it was only for a week. They really were not that relaxed and enjoyed their time together. But now that they are engaged, he is still a suspect.
.
He couldn't help but smile bitterly again.
It turned out that Zhou Guohua and Hong Kui who were nearby had already left. He suddenly felt that the room was stuffy and looked down at the hospital gown he was wearing.
His body was indeed weak, but he was not sick, but he had to be hospitalized. This was a war strategy. He decided to go for a walk. After all, he was not unable to walk even if he was sick.
So he put on his shoes and opened the door. At the door were Zhou Guohua and Hong Kui. Coincidentally, Hong Kui had also filmed a documentary for Zhou Guohua, and the two were also good friends, so Hong Kui joked that it was fate for the three of them to get together in Shang and Tang Dynasties.
The arrangement is an invincible iron triangle.
"When will we drink your wedding wine? Tang Lin." But relatively speaking, Hong Kui and Tang Lin are less restrained and more relaxed. Zhou Guohua's feelings about Tang Lin are complicated. First of all, he knows this young man and knows that it is not Chi.
Among them, Liang Xiaoying is his mentor, and Tang Lin is Liang Xiaoying's disciple, but the relationship goes beyond this.
Liang Xiaoying is equivalent to Huang Ying's mother, so Tang Lin is the son-in-law of his mentor.
Therefore, he must be very concerned about Tang Lin and protect him carefully. This is his responsibility. Although the teacher did not talk to him about this matter once, the person who contacted him was Huang Ying.
He originally went to the Huang Family Courtyard to visit his mentor this time, and then received a call from Huang Ying asking him for help. He did not mention this matter to his mentor because he did not want the teacher to worry.
After rushing to Shang and Tang Dynasties, he immediately entered the role and became a perfect shield in front of Tang Lin. Or as Hong Kui said, when Zhou Guohua came to Tang Lin, he was covered with a shield, making him invulnerable.
"Director Hong, this is the first time I've seen you so anxious about someone else's marriage." Zhou Guohua also relaxed. Tang Lin was a little lost, and it took him a long time to respond, "Wedding wine? Speaking of which, getting married at my age is really okay, yes.
Bar?"
Hong Kui was also a little dazed. He lowered his voice and leaned over, "Are you okay? There are no changes in your relationship, right? I'm not an expert in this area. Teacher Zhou is an expert. He ended up getting married twice!"
Zhou Guohua blushed for a while. He had indeed married twice, but the second marriage was five years after his ex-wife died in a traffic accident. No one could say anything about it.
Zhou Guohua's reputation has always been very good, because Liang Xiaoying taught him to cherish his reputation as much as he cherishes his own eyes. It will be the greatest wealth and pride in your life.
"I am just lucky enough to have met my current wife. In fact, my emotional intelligence is relatively low. Whenever we quarrel at home, I always lose..."
Tang Lin and Hong Kui laughed immediately after hearing this, and the laughter echoed in the corridor. Tang Lin didn't walk quickly, so he had to pretend to be sick. Fortunately, Hong Kui and Zhou Guohua were patient enough. The three of them came downstairs.
An open space was originally supposed to be a small garden, but due to the development of the hospital it had to be converted into a parking lot. There are no cars in the parking lot at the moment, so it is relatively quiet.
"The next step is the counterattack of the two teams of Shang and Tang Dynasties. But you have four votes now. If you fight for two more votes, six votes will be the majority. This is very important to you." Zhou Guohua began to come up with ideas.
He is a well-known barrister and is also a government consultant to several provincial governments, so this kind of problem is child's play.
"And you'd better win over Zhao Hongbo, so that you can completely take the local initiative." Zhou Guohua continued, while Hong Kui was basically not interested in politics. He just listened with a smile.
Tang Lin nodded lightly, "Actually, Secretary Zhao is not impossible to win over. Secretary Zhao has never been a bad person, nor a corrupt person. His biggest concern now is probably self-protection. Originally, I was not sure about Yue Qing.
Who is your backer? It was decided just now that it is Mayor Zhou Rentong, which makes everything clear."
week
It is slanderous, but the crowd cannot stop it."
Tang Lin nodded slightly again, "So, maybe I will hold a small engagement ceremony soon, and you two must attend then."
After hearing this, Hong Kui immediately came over and punched him, "Okay, how can you get rid of the yellow market so easily? You have found a treasure!"
Zhou Guohua was in a daze, and then he realized, "But I see that you are not very happy. Do you have any doubts?" Tang Lin looked up at him and smiled bitterly, "I don't want to be forced to get engaged in this situation. I don't want to.
My relationship and marriage have been affected by politics."
Unexpectedly, Hong Kui thought clearly and curled his lips indifferently, "Tang Lin, you are thinking too much. You can get engaged whenever you want. What does it have to do with your current situation? Isn't it you who are engaged now?
Are you free? Anyway, I don’t think you are being coerced. The key is that if others agree, then what do you have to hesitate?"
Tang Lin was stunned, "It's precisely because Huang Ying brought this up on her own initiative that I'm depressed. Isn't her sacrifice greater than mine?"
Hong Kui was even more unconvinced, "That's not true. If Huang Shi finds you as her husband, it will be her lifelong happiness. Even if it is a temporary sacrifice, what will happen? And if it is handled well, it will become a crisis public relations. On the contrary, it will improve her
