131: Chapter 131 My Girlfriend is the Commander’s Daughter!
“Where did it co from?”
Ge Changhong, unflustered, turned his gaze to Xu Qianli.
“Maybe you should explain, Xu.”
“Secretary Fan, here’s what happened.
Today, I went to Qingshan Town…”
Xu Qianli narrated the incident in detail.
He spoke about how he and a friend had conflict with Li Bangjun at a breakfast diner, and then how Li Zhu recognized him and politely invited him over to the Qingshan Town Governnt Comprehensive Building with bribery of both a beautiful woman and gifts.
He inford Fan Hua of every little detail.
After hearing this, Fan Hua said, “Director Xu, I really owe you thanks for this.
Without you, I wouldn’t have known about such a huge parasite hidden within Jiang City.
Secretary Ge, Director Xu, rest assured, with this information in hand, the Disciplinary Committee will handle the subsequent matters properly.”
Fan Hua’s idea of handling things properly was clear to Xu Qianli, who simply nodded without saying much.
Ge Changhong vigorously lectured Fan Hua for a while before letting him leave with the items.
Once Fan Hua had gone, Ge Changhong looked at Xu Qianli, smiling amiably.
“Now that it’s just us, Xu, tell the truth.
Why did you really go to Qingshan Town?”
“I’ve heard that you’re quite close to a certain female teacher at Qingshan Town Middle School?”
As soon as he said this, Ge Changhong waited to see how Xu Qianli would respond.
Xu Qianli responded, “Uncle Ge, you are really well-inford.
Since you already know, I’m not afraid to tell you; my relationship with her isn’t just ‘good.’ In fact, she is my girlfriend, and I stayed at her place last night.”
Ge Changhong fell silent for a mont.
He had intended to use this situation to make a point to Xu Qianli, but he responded so calmly, easily revealing the matter.
Not only disclosing it, but also admitting right to his face that Ding ixin was his girlfriend.
Xu Qianli pulled out cigarettes, offering one to Ge Changhong, and lit one for himself, then continued speaking.
“Uncle Ge, you must be pretty upset, but so things are not as you think.
I feel that I still need to clarify things to you.”
“How Pingping and I t is no secret to you.
Although many people in Jiang City think we are lovers, in reality, we are just pretending, as per her request.
You probably can guess why.”
“While I help Pingping, I still need a love life.
My current girlfriend, whom I haven’t known for long, and I share a great relationship, and if nothing unexpected happens, I will definitely marry her.”
Xu Qianli laid everything out in front of Ge Changhong.
Since it was Ge Changhong who had brought it up, knowing about his affair with Ding ixin, it was clear there was soone keeping tabs on him, even bringing his personal matters up seemingly to make a point.
Facing such circumstances, Xu Qianli simply didn’t pretend anymore and laid all his cards on the table.
Even with all his political acun, Ge Changhong couldn’t save face anymore; his expression darkened.
“Xu, you are a smart man.
Can’t you see the difference in status between my daughter and that teacher, Ding ixin?”
“I’ve already investigated her.
She’s nothing but an orphan, and those who adopted her are plain farrs!”
“Ge Changhong is the Jiang City County Secretary, and my daughter is of noble descent!”
“If you want to progress further in your career, you need more support, and you need to think clearly about your choices.”
“Xu, perhaps she is beautiful, and you like her, but after all, love can’t be eaten.
You need to think clearly about your future.”
Ge Changhong, swallowing his anger, tried to remain calm as he confronted Xu Qianli.
Wasn’t it apparent to this young man that his own daughter, Ge Pingping, was better than Ding ixin, and could help him progress further in his official career?
“Uncle Ge, if choosing a lover was based on which woman could help more, do you think I would have dated my ex-girlfriend Xu Shuman for three years?”
“Minister Huang Liqiang from the Organization Departnt has always had issues with ; you might have heard about it.
It’s because, three years ago, he tried to set up with his daughter, wanting to break up with Xu Shuman and date his daughter instead, which I firmly rejected.”
“Back then, I wasn’t even the County Magistrate’s secretary, nor the Governnt Office Director, just a regular clerical officer, yet I could refuse the Minister’s daughter—let alone today!”
“When Xu Qianli chooses a girlfriend, he never considers their status or weighs benefits; I only see whether she’s the girl I like.”
“I don’t mind telling you that my girlfriend and I have already decided to marry in this lifeti, and if I can’t marry her, I’d rather stay single forever!”
Xu Qianli plainly expressed his intentions; he had set his mind on Ding ixin.
Ge Changhong was briefly at a loss for words.
He didn’t know whether to scold or praise the young man.
But on reflection, he sowhat admired Xu Qianli.
In the officialdom, few could refuse the advances made by daughters of top leaders.
Especially here in Jiang City, besides Xu Qianli, which clerical officer would reject an offer from soone like Minister Huang Liqiang?
Anyone else would be overjoyed, eagerly ditching their girlfriend for the chance to date Minister Huang’s daughter.
Now it was his own daughter, Ge Pingping’s turn, and Xu Qianli would rather choose a female teacher and not even consider Ge Pingping, truly as he said—choosing a girlfriend purely based on affection.
Facing such a character, Ge Changhong felt both annoyance and admiration, and after reflecting for a mont, he finally rapped his knuckles on the table.
“Leaving that woman aside, what are your intentions toward my daughter?”
“Now everyone in Jiang City assus my daughter is already your girlfriend, and if you dump her, where would that leave my face, and how could my daughter face people in the future?”
Xu Qianli replied, “Well, I can continue to play the role of Pingping’s boyfriend, and if there is a future, I could marry her as a concubine.
If it’s not ant to be, then let’s part amicably.”
“What!”
Ge Changhong slamd the table and sprang up, “How could my daughter, the Jiang City County Secretary’s daughter, rely be your concubine?”
Xu Qianli shrugged.
“If that’s not acceptable, then forget it; I’ll break things off with her and we both can go our separate ways.”
“Of course, if this offends you, Uncle Ge, and you decide to oppress , there’s nothing I can do.”
With Xu Qianli’s indifferent attitude, Ge Changhong truly had no leverage, and through gritted teeth, he said, “Fine, I’ll back down—my daughter as the main wife, that female teacher as the concubine!”
“No, absolutely not, this matter is non-negotiable!”
Xu Qianli bluntly refused.
Ge Changhong pointed to his nose, “Do you even consider this County Secretary in your eyes anymore?
Isn’t my daughter better than that orphan teacher?”
Xu Qianli’s anger rose as well, and he too slamd the table and stood up.
“So what if ixin is an orphan?
Her biological father is a commander in the East Sea Theater; isn’t his status much higher than yours?”
