Age: Passionate youth, starting from graduation assignment

Chapter 217 I only wanted one woman, but two came?
"You know and ask."

Lan Qimei replied a little embarrassedly.

Seeing the situation, Xu Jicheng stopped teasing her: "Don't worry, it will be a matter of time before we have a baby."

After saying that, he put Lan Qimei into his arms and touched her back to express comfort.

"Then I will give you two more babies."

Lan Qimei rubbed her cheek against Xu Jichang's chin.

Xu Jichang smiled and said nothing.

……

The next day, the construction of the dedicated railway line started in full swing.

The first step in building the road was to build the roadbed. Under the command of Xia Yingxue, the engineering staff started working enthusiastically.

At this moment, Xia Yingxue's mood was very complicated.

On the one hand, it is the pain of divorce, on the other hand, it is the throb caused by Xu Jichang's show of goodwill.

The two emotions were intertwined and mixed together, causing her mind to constantly swing back and forth between the two poles.

Still, she forced herself to focus all her attention on her work.

Railway construction is a big deal and there is no room for mistakes.

Entering the formal construction stage, she also lost the legitimate reason to contact Xu Jichang unless she encountered a situation that needed to be reported.

For several days, Xia Yingxue had no other interactions with Xu Jichang except for a few chance encounters and greetings with a smile.

It's strange, has he forgotten himself?
Could it be that he met a heartless man?I've held hands and hugged you, but why now...

Xia Yingxue became tormented because of this, and Xu Jichang began to occupy more and more space in her mind.

She really wanted to find Xu Jichang and ask him if he only wanted to tease her and not take responsibility at all.

Xu Jichang saw all these changes in her.

Xu Jichang didn't have much dealings with Xia Yingxue, but in the limited few times he greeted her, he could clearly see the torment and small flames in her beautiful eyes.

This is clearly a signal calling for men to attack.

However, in Xu Jichang's opinion, one should not be too hasty.

My situation is special and there are already many women around me.

And Xia Yingxue is an extremely traditional woman who knows nothing about men and women.

After her ex-husband got married, he wanted to sleep in the same bed with her, but she regarded him as a hooligan, and eventually they got divorced.

Even if he launches an attack now, he will take her down.If she later learns that she already has another woman, she might cause trouble.

So it was better to wait and endure her until she reached a level where she could be confirmed to be safe.

With this idea, Xu Jichang was not in a hurry. He was busy with his daily work every day and never took the initiative to find Xia Yingxue even once.

Occasionally, when construction problems encountered problems and he needed to report and communicate with the factory, he would deal with business matters and did not show any ambiguity when talking to Xia Yingxue.

This made Xia Yingxue extremely confused.

"What's going on? This guy..."

One night, Xia Yingxue returned to the guest house and looked out the window blankly, with a trace of confusion on her beautiful white face.

She confirmed 100% that Xu Jichang's past actions, such as holding hands and hugging, were definitely showing love to her.

But now, why has he become so cold?
Did you do something wrong?Or is it that he has moved on and is in love with someone else?
Xia Yingxue fell into unbearable thoughts, and the tall and handsome image of Xu Jichang appeared in her mind more than once.

And while she was thinking about it, she felt a strange feeling all over her body...

She couldn't explain what it felt like.She only knew that she really wanted to see Xu Jichang now, wanted to be kissed and hugged by him, so much so that...

With this feeling, Xia Yingxue felt that her skin began to get hotter and her breathing began to quicken.

"Tuk Tuk..."

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside.

"Is it you, Ji Chang?"

Xia Yingxue murmured subconsciously, then realized that she had lost her words and quickly covered her mouth.

"It's me, Qingyu."

A crisp and playful voice came from outside.

Oh……

It's her.

Xia Yingxue felt relieved.

Zhou Qingyu is her engineer assistant. He is 18 years old and has just graduated from a technical secondary school. He is very smart and always obeys her instructions.

Even if you said something wrong just now, you don't have to worry about her spreading it.

"Squeak..."

Xia Yingxue stepped forward and opened the door, and saw Bingxue's smart, slim Zhou Qingyu standing behind the door holding an armful of information.

"It's so late, what do you want from me?"

Xia Yingxue asked as she invited her in.

While speaking, she was observing Zhou Qingyu's expression, guessing that the other person might not have heard clearly just now, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhou Qingyu's stern tone would be embarrassing if she heard him.

"The next phase of construction will begin tomorrow. I have to give you the construction materials."

Zhou Qingyu didn't think as much as Xia Yingxue. She smiled sweetly, put the information in her hand on the desk, and sat beside the bed with Xia Yingxue.

Only then did Xia Yingxue react. She only blamed herself for thinking too much about Xu Jichang and forgetting such an important time point.

"I'll check it out later."

Xia Yingxue said calmly on the surface. The blush on her face because she missed Xu Jichang also subsided a little, "What are the results of today's acceptance? What did the supervisors tell you?"

“Construction quality was excellent and no issues were identified.”

Zhou Qingyu said happily, winking at Xia Yingxue, "This is all because of your leadership."

"Just your sweet mouth."

Xia Yingxue was very happy after being praised, and the dissatisfaction caused by longing in her heart dissipated a lot, "You have to help me watch more from now on to prevent any cutting corners."

"You can rest assured."

Zhou Qingyu said with a smile and took Xia Yingxue's hand.

At work, she obeyed Xia Yingxue's words and obeyed all orders.In life, the two are like sisters, and their relationship is extremely close and harmonious.

"Even though this county is small, its products are quite abundant."

"Especially mountain products, with good quality and low prices. When the project is free, let's go shopping together and buy something."

Zhou Qingyu suggested.

“Buy, buy, buy, you’ll know what to buy all day long.”

Because the two of them have a good relationship, Xia Yingxue doesn't feel any restraint when joking, "What will happen if we start a family?"

"Getting married? If I really want to get married, I'll find someone like Director Xu Jichang."

"Not to mention being young and handsome, the salary is still high. No matter how much I buy, I won't lose money."

Zhou Qingyu said with a pure and cheerful expression, completely unaware that Xia Yingxue's expression had changed.From Zhou Qingyu's words, Xia Yingxue could confirm that she did not hear her calling Xu Jichang's name just now.

But... this is no longer important to Xia Yingxue.

When she heard Zhou Qingyu say that she wanted to marry someone like Xu Jichang, her heart skipped a beat.

It seems that this little girl Zhou Qingyu is interested in Xu Jichang?
So what if she takes action and starts pursuing Xu Jichang?
She can't say...she has already had an affair with Xu Jichang, should she advise her to let it go?
The more Xia Yingxue thought about it, the more confused she became, until finally her expression couldn't be concealed, and even Zhou Qingyu, who was innocent and without any scheming, could see it.

"What's wrong with you? Did what I just said make you unhappy?"

Zhou Qingyu asked with some fear, not knowing exactly where he touched Xia Yingxue's nerves.

Could it be that she also likes Xu Jichang?It shouldn't be, she is already married, and her husband is also a senior technician.How could she fall in love with another man during marriage with her personality?
Zhou Qingyu thought in confusion, completely unaware that Xia Yingxue had already divorced.

Facing the assistant's question, Xia Yingxue quickly changed her expression and forced a smile: "It's nothing, I just felt a little uncomfortable in my stomach."

"Go ahead and talk."

Zhou Qingyu was dubious about Xia Yingxue's excuse, but couldn't question it any more, so she had to stand up with the same smile: "I've said everything I wanted to say."

"It's...it's getting late. I'll go back to bed. You should go to bed early too."

Xia Yingxue smiled stiffly: "Well, go to bed early. We still have work tomorrow."

"Clap."

The door of the guest house was closed, separating the two women with their own thoughts on both sides.

Zhou Qingyu was worried.

What happened to Xia Gong?
You must know that she is usually only strict at work, but she is usually quite easy-going towards herself.

Why did her expression change when she said those words just now?

Could it be...

Zhou Qingyu couldn't help but widen her eyes as she thought about it.

Could it be that there were problems in her marriage, so she became unhappy when she mentioned her ideal marriage partner?

Zhou Qingyu thought in her heart.

But soon, she overturned this conclusion.

No, it was Xia Gong himself who took the initiative to mention the topic of getting married and starting a family just now.

What I guessed just now was wrong.

So here comes the question: What is the truth?

Zhou Qingyu's last thought made his brain hurt, and he couldn't come up with an answer.

On the other side, Xia Yingxue's thoughts were more complicated.

Did Zhou Qingyu just compare herself to Xu Jichang, or did she really have thoughts about him?
If it's the latter, what should I do?
You must know that Zhou Qingyu has just graduated from technical secondary school, and she is still a pretty girl, as tender as if she could pinch water.

If she really pursued Xu Jichang, as a divorced woman, would she still have a chance of winning?

What's more, Xu Jichang is now inexplicably cold towards him. Does this mean that he and he are already in a relationship?
Xia Yingxue thought about it and sighed silently.

Until she turned off the light, she was still tossing and turning in bed...

……

……

Unable to sleep, Xia Yingxue still had to get up early the next day.

This was an important day to enter the next phase of the project. As the project leader of the transportation line, she had to arrive on time and could not be late.

When setting off, Zhou Qingyu helped her bring construction drawings and other important information, and technicians from the design institute filed behind her.

On the way to the construction site, Xia Yingxue and Zhou Qingyu discussed their work with normal expressions, as if nothing had happened.

Since some matters need to be coordinated and communicated with Dongfang Fertilizer Factory after entering the next stage of construction, Xia Yingxue has to send someone to communicate with Xu Jichang.

When she told her about the mission, Zhou Qingyu was the first to respond: "Xia Gong, let me go find him."

After saying that, she walked quickly towards the factory's distribution office, and Xia Yingxue had no time to stop her.

Alas, if I had known earlier, I would have appointed someone directly!

Seeing Zhou Qingyu's leaving figure, Xia Yingxue couldn't help feeling depressed.

Regardless of whether Zhou Qingyu is really interested in Xu Jichang, as a woman's possessive nature, she doesn't want her to see the two of them get together anymore.

In contrast to Xia Yingxue's depression, Zhou Qingyu felt extremely relaxed and joyful at the moment.

She enjoyed dealing with the young leader of the factory's distribution office.

Otherwise, she would not have said that she wanted to find Xu Jichang when she was looking for a husband.

Soon, Zhou Qingyu came to the door of the dealership with light steps: "Director Xu, I have to ask you to coordinate some of our follow-up construction matters."

"Can you please go to the site to understand the specific situation of these matters?"

In the office, Xu Jichang was immersed in his work. He raised his head after hearing Zhou Qingyu's words: "Okay, wait for me for a while."

"Uh-huh."

Zhou Qingyu then came to the office and sat down, and Yu Yingzi made her a cup of tea.

Zhou Qingyu took the teacup, said thank you, and took this opportunity to take a closer look at Xu Jichang's appearance.

The nose is the king of facial features, and his nose is a standard hanging bile nose, very straight.

Between the eyebrows, it is no exaggeration to describe it as sword eyebrows and star eyes.A pair of bright eyes has a magical power that makes people unable to take their eyes away.

The whole face is as beautiful as a crown jewel. The shape of the face is very good, and there is not even a single flaw on the face.

Zhou Qingyu only saw Xu Jichang from a distance in the past and thought he was very handsome.

Now when I look closer, I feel even more disturbed and restless.

Hiss... If there is really a chance to develop with him, then I would rather give up my job at the provincial capital design institute and find a way to be transferred to this county.

But I'm afraid he won't like this one of mine...

Zhou Qingyu thought wildly in her mind, and some scenes that were not suitable for children and adults gradually emerged in her mind.

Speaking of which, although she has never been in love, she has read manuscripts widely circulated among students and educated youth, and has some understanding of the affairs between men and women.

Therefore, when she is having random thoughts, her thoughts are even more divergent than Xia Yingxue's...

"Let's go."

Just when Zhou Qingyu's mind was filled with clear thoughts, Xu Jichang stood up from behind his desk and put a pen into his jacket pocket.

"oh oh."

Zhou Qingyu woke up from a dream and quickly stood up with him, too shy to look at Xu Jichang.

Was he aware of his gaze just now?

If he finds out, will he reject me immediately?
Countless questions appeared in Zhou Qingyu's mind, making her even more confused.

Fortunately, Xu Jichang didn't say anything. Even though there was no one else around him when he left the office, he just said a few polite words to her, and there was no rejection that Zhou Qingyu was worried about.

Zhou Qingyu felt relieved and became more courageous again.

"By the way, leader, I want to ask you a personal question."

When passing a secluded place in the factory, Zhou Qingyu summoned up the courage and asked seemingly casually.
