Does he have guts?

  0035: See if the man has guts

  Xue Er didn't want to recall her painful memories, so she closed her eyes and counted. But as she counted, she found herself back in those painful days again.

  Zheng Shuang stormed out, and she understood his emotions. Zheng Shuang's actions not only didn't make Xue Er angry but also made her have more respect for him. What kind of real man would give up his own woman to his superior? If that were the case, would such a man be worth loving? It was precisely because Xue Er thought that the man who stormed out was worthy of her love and worthy of her sacrifice that a bold "assist husband" plan appeared in her mind. She must help him bring electricity into the village, which is not only support for her loved one but also doing something practical and good for her parents and fellow villagers! If this matter succeeds, her husband will have more prestige in the village!

  Zheng Shuang went out for a walk and slowly calmed down. He reflected on himself, feeling that his attitude towards Xue Er was not good, he feared Xue Er would be heartbroken, so he hurried back home.

  Zheng Shuang returned home, and Xue Er had already prepared dinner.

  "I'm back. Let's eat, tonight I'll keep you company for a few drinks."

  "How did you know I'd come back for dinner?"

  "No one knows you better than your wife. I know you're in a bad mood today. When you're in a bad mood, you won't go out drinking unless there's an unavoidable social engagement."

  "Xue Er, sorry, it was my fault for having a bad attitude."

  "Never mind. I know you care about me. Let's drink. I specially cooked the braised pork, your favorite dish to go with liquor."

  "Xue Er, you're really good." Zheng Shuang said, picking up a piece of bacon and putting it in her mouth, a smile appearing on her face.

  "Zheng Shuang, we can't give up on the plan to electrify. Let me go meet Li Jun tomorrow! Please trust me, I won't embarrass you, no one else can touch my body except for you. Not even a deputy mayor, let alone a county head! Come, I'll accompany you, for our love, for the mountain village to have electricity, cheers!" Xue Er raised her glass and clinked it against Zheng Shuang's, her round big eyes staring at Zheng Shuang.

  Zheng Shuang saw gentleness in her beautiful big eyes, and also saw her determination. Zheng Shuang thought of Snow's boldness and composure when they were boiling the nine heavens, he knew that he couldn't stop Snow from seeing Li Jun's decision. If he insisted on stopping it, it would affect their feelings.

  "Alright! You go and meet him. You must be careful. From my interactions with Li Jun, I know he's a cunning and ruthless man. He'll stop at nothing to get what he wants within his power!"

  "Don't worry, I'm your wife. No man can take away my love for you with power. Unless it's me who changes my heart." Xue Er said with a chuckle after finishing this sentence.

  "Alright, I believe in your ability. Come on, let me fill you up and I'll have a cup with you!" Zheng Shuang said as she snatched the wine jug from Xue Er's hands.

  Xue Er and Zheng Shuang chatted while drinking, their faces gradually becoming rosier.

  "Xue Er, you're too beautiful. Honestly, men will be moved when they see you. It's just a matter of whether or not one can control oneself, I couldn't control myself." Zheng Shuang said with a smile.

  "Unlikely, if men's hearts move when they see beautiful women, would those beautiful women still dare to go out?"

  "Beauty is short-lived. Why else would people say that? It's because beautiful women have many admirers, which means they also have more troubles, and their fate is often tumultuous, that's why beauty is short-lived!" Zheng Shuang sighed.

  "A woman's heart can only hide one man. For the man in her heart, a woman's heart is unshakeably firm. Is it the same with you men?"

  "A man's heart? I don't know. But in my heart, there is only you." Zheng Shuang said, and then thought of the difference between men and women again.

  "Come on, clink glasses and have a meal." Xue Er felt she was the happiest woman in the world.

  In the morning, Xue'er made breakfast and woke up Zheng Shuang.

  After having breakfast, Xue Er is going out of the village.

  "I'll accompany you to town!" Zheng Shuang stroked Xue Er's hand.

  "It's okay, you stay home and rest assured, I'm fine." Xue Er's big eyes stared firmly at Zheng Shuang.

  "Alright, be careful and take care of yourself, if he really doesn't agree, we'll think of another way later."

  "Hmm, I'm leaving." Xue Er said, removing her hand from Zheng Shuang's and setting off.

  Xue Er arrived in the town and didn't go directly to the town government, she walked around the street first, then entered the government compound. After entering the compound, she asked a woman in an office by the gate: "Excuse me, where is Vice Mayor Li Jun's office?" The woman looked up at her. Xue Er felt that her gaze was strange. The woman's gaze was indeed a bit unusual, and she thought to herself: "This woman asks strangely, everyone calls him Mayor Li, but she not only added the word 'vice', but also his name." Despite thinking this, the woman still told Xue Er how to find it.

  The office door was closed, Xue Er raised her hand and knocked: "Is Vice Mayor Li in?"

  "Who is it?"

  "I am Xue Er."

  "Oh, Xue Er! I've been waiting for you. I thought the village chief wouldn't let you come." The door opened, "Please come in, beautiful comrade." Li Jun bowed his head with a smile and made a gentlemanly gesture to invite her in.

  Xue Er couldn't help but laugh in her heart: "Hypocrite! Who are you trying to fool?"

  Xue Er walked in with poise and sat down on the chair opposite Deputy Mayor Li.

  Li Jun closed the door and locked it with a small lock. Li Jun's subtle movements were seen by Xue Er.

  Li Jun closed the door and walked straight to Xue Er. Xue Er stood up and gestured for Li Jun to stop: "Deputy Mayor Li, please sit down first, let's discuss work!" A kind of feminine majesty shone through Xue Er's big eyes.

  Li Jun took a step back and sat down in his own chair: "Work? Zheng Shuang is a clever person, he should know the purpose of my calling you, and you should also know. You came, and the work is solved, isn't it?"

  "I'm afraid there's no proof in words." Xue Er chuckled.

  "What do you want? Want me to write a letter of guarantee? This is impossible, the letter of guarantee is a time bomb, when the time comes, you'll harm me, what can I do?" Li Jun stared at Xue Er.

  "I knew you couldn't write a letter. I'm asking you, is it because you think I'm pretty that you called me over?" Xue Er asked directly.

  "That's right. You're not only beautiful, but also have a unique feminine charm. This charm makes me dizzy, and it's not just me, all men will be like this, the question is whether they have the guts." Li Jun said bluntly.

  "You're overestimating me. Do you mean you're shameless?" Xue Er giggled.

  "Yes. I won't let you down as a man. You should still agree with me!" Li Jun said, standing up.

  Xue Er once again stopped him with her hand: "Don't be unreasonable! I think you're a clever person. You wouldn't want me to shout loudly, would you?"

  "Fine. Anyway, I won't get you, electricity, never think about entering the mountain stronghold! You decide for yourself, I'll give you 5 minutes to consider, if you don't agree, you can leave, I won't stop you!" Li Jun's tone was very hard.

  "Vice Mayor Li, one should leave some leeway when speaking. As the saying goes, words cannot be spoken absolutely, and things cannot be done absolutely. Giving others a way out is also leaving a way out for oneself. Isn't that right?" Xue Er said calmly.

  "Go ahead, I don't want to say anything, I'll just keep track of the time," Li Jun said, his eyes fixed on his watch.

  Xue Er saw Li Jun staring at his watch, her open mouth temporarily speechless, she put her hand into her own pocket.
