Chapter 503 Don't Be Shameless

little gestures and was secretly delighted. 。The small car quickly passed the checkpoint of the gatekeeper and drove into the municipal party committee compound, stopping in front of a small Western-...Xiaoli is a stubborn one, Tonglei is very principled. If the two of them get into an argument, both Xie Jiaming and Zhang Wei will be in trouble. 。These two bigwigs, partners in the workplace, had a friendship established years ago that was recently salvaged after hitting rough patches. It would be truly laughable if their hard-earned connection were to sour over family matters. 。This is driving me crazy! I can't believe this, I wish I hadn't come to the banquet today. 。Atte raised her head to look at him and snorted, "Is that so difficult Just tell TongTong that you already have a girlfriend, don't you Don't tell me you still want to play the field." 。"Auntie, I told Tongtong about this a long time ago. To be honest, if you hadn't sent her that text message that day, she probably would have given up on me by now. 。"Wept bitterly to the heavens" 。At this, Manny angrily pinched him on the back of his hand, “You’re still blaming me You were the one who was reluctant to part with it. I was only trying to help you!” 。To heaven's knowledge, Yu Manni also softened her heart after discovering Tong Lei's such deep affection. Therefore, she pretended to use his name to send that ambiguous and enigmatic text message to Tong Lei, so as not to make that silly girl heartbroken. 。But in this way, Tong Lei was not heartbroken, instead she became incredibly determined. Looking at her, as long as he didn't marry Xiaolaji, she was set on pursuing him. 。Damn it, what the hell is going on! Xiang Tian was incredibly frustrated, shaking his head and sighing. 。Yu Manni couldn't help but giggle, saying, “If someone else got one of the two girls, it would be like their ancestral graves were smoking with good fortune! You’re blessed to have both like you, and yet you sigh and moan like a man”Xiang Tian, upon hearing this, feigned innocence and said, “Don't you know if I'm a man or not”Yu Manni’s face flushed even redder. Just as she was about to pinch Xiang Tian, she saw Tong Lei walking over with tea. She quickly lowered her voice and whispered, "A real man should be responsible and not act so timidly..." 。"

Tian Leng looked up in surprise, Yu Manni's words were like a bolt from the blue, making his mind suddenly clear. 。"Aunt Yu, Xiangtian, stop picking them and let's have some tea." 。Tong Lei smiled and brought tea to them. 。Then, Xiangtian hurriedly took the teacup from her hand, said thank you, and then smiled at Tonglei: "Tongtong, come with me for a moment, I have something to tell you." 。"As what Mani said, as a man, one must be responsible. Facing difficulties, we must meet them head-on. To just keep running away, what kind of a man would that be" 。So, he decided to talk things through with Tong Lei while Pepper wasn't around, so that the girl wouldn't hold any illusions about him anymore. 。This way, although Tong Lei will inevitably feel sad and heartbroken, he has no other choice. The saying "it's better to suffer a short pain than a long one" applies to this situation. 。Tong Lei was puzzled, and quickly replied with a sound. She was just about to take Wang Chao upstairs when the doorbell rang. 。"It must be my dad back." 。Tong Lei cheered and ran to open the door. Sure enough, Xie Jiaming was the first to walk in, followed closely by Zhang Wei and his wife. And behind them, it was the fiery little chili with a beautiful face like a hibiscus. 。My heart felt like a glass bottle shattering. It was as if millions of grass mud horses were galloping through my mind. 。Damn it, this is messed up! Hearing the noise, Tong Lei's mother also came out of the kitchen and gave the cooking task to the nanny. 。After some pleasantries, Xie Jiaming and his wife accompanied Zhang Wei and his wife in the living room for a chat. Yu Manny also followed along, while only Xiang Tian and two girls remained at the entrance. 。"Zhang Xin sister, do you still remember me" Tong Lei looked at Zhang Xin with a smile and asked first. 。Zhang Xin smiled, "Of course I remember. When you were little, your two pigtails were adorable, and you're still very cute now." 。She handed the small package in her hand to Tong Lei, “This is a gift for you, I don't know if you like it” 。"

Tong Lei quickly took it, smiling and saying: "Thank you, Sister Zhang Xin, you're still as beautiful as when you were little. It's a shame, it's been so many years since we last saw each other" 。" Zhang Xin smiled and turned to Tian, saying, "You're here early" "Hmm, I've been here for a while." 。"By the way, have you two known each other since you were little" 。Tong Lei saw Zhang Xin and Xiang Tian's affectionate looks, and her heart couldn't help but feel a sourness. She forced a smile on her face and said, "Zhang Xin and I have known each other since we were very young. I remember that Zhang Xin was our leader back then, leading us around to play. She was so imposing, many boys were afraid of her." 。Speaking of this, Zhang Xin seemed a little embarrassed. When she was young, she was a wild child who led a group of kids running around and playing, just like a little tomboy. 。Although she felt a little awkward, as childhood memories flooded back, her gaze towards Tong Lei became more kind. She quickly began sharing anecdotes from their time together as children with Tong Lei, and they chatted happily. 。This situation was a bit unexpected. He didn't expect Tong Lei and Zhang Xin to have known each other for so long, and even more surprisingly, they were childhood playmates. Looking at them now, it seemed very unlikely that the conflict he had imagined would happen today. 。On the other side, Manni was actually paying attention to their situation as well. Seeing Zhang Xin and Tong Lei getting closer and closer, even linking arms, she also showed a look of surprise. 。Just then, Xie Jiaming called out to Xiang Tian. After Xiang Tian sat down, he asked kindly: "Xiaotian, how is Lao He doing""He's fine, he can live to be a hundred years old with no problem." 。" Haha...too exaggerated, no one can live to be a hundred years old " 。Xie Jiaming and Zhang Wei looked at each other and smiled happily. 。Xie Jiaming and Zhang Wei both have high political ambitions, but unfortunately, for so many years they have been unable to advance further in their careers because they lack a strong backing. They haven't had a wider platform to realize their political aspirations. 。If nothing goes wrong, they are most likely only able to reach this point in their lives. But none of them expected that after a trip to the capital city, they would be connected to the He family. Moreover, according to Xiang Tian's words, he still owes the He family a great favor. 。This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. 。They knew that with Xiang Tian's cleverness, even if they didn't say anything, Xiang Tian would definitely use his relationship with the He family to help them. 。In fact, this is indeed the case. The matter of Xie Jia Ming's appointment as the secretary of Chunjiang City Committee has been delayed for various reasons. People once thought that Xie Jia Ming might miss this opportunity. However, since He Jia came forward to vouch for Xie Jia Ming, this matter was finally settled. 。Xie Jiaming knew that from now on, he would no longer be fighting alone. As the saying goes, "Leaning against a big tree is good for taking shelter from the shade." With the help of the He family, his path ahead would definitely become wider and wider. 。The He family is powerful, as long as Old Master He is around, this big tree will never fall. So when Xie Jiaming heard that Old Master He was in good health, he was even happier. 。And now Zhang Wei is in sync with Xie Jia Ming's footsteps. Xie Jia Ming has gained greater authority, and his future scope of action will certainly be wider. 。"Uncle Xie, I heard that you're going to be the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. Congratulations!" Xiang Tian said with a smile. 。Xie Jia Ming smiled and nodded, "Since you all know, I won't hide it anymore. Things are almost settled. The provincial committee should be sending someone over in the next day or two." 。After a moment of contemplation, he sighed and said, “Fate is truly a cruel joke. A few months ago I was imprisoned, and almost everyone thought I would lose my position, be forced to resign, or even go to jail. But now, just a few months later, I'm about to become the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee.” 。He held up his hand to stop everyone and continued, "As the saying goes, a friend in need is a friend indeed. All of you have been kind to me, and to the Xie family, you have done us a great favor. I will never forget this kindness." 。"Uncle Xiang, you're too kind!" Xiang Tian said. 。Xie Jiaming shook his head and smiled, "Xiao Tian, my nephew, Uncle Xie is a poor man with nothing but the clothes on my back. I don't know what to give you as a reward..." 。I thought if you and TongTong could get along, we'd be a family. Then I wouldn't have to worry about what to give you as a gift. 。But I heard you already have a girlfriend, now I don't know what to do. 。"Well, why don't you give me some advice" Ah! Xiang Tian was completely unprepared for Xie Jiaming to say such a thing in front of everyone. This wasn't him asking for advice, it was clearly forcing him to take a stance! He immediately turned his head to look at Xiao La jiao. Sure enough, Zhang Xin was staring at him with astonishment, and beside her, Zhang Wei and his wife were also dumbfounded. 。"Dad!" Tong Lei's delicate little face suddenly turned crimson, she blushed shyly and mumbled a complaint before springing to her feet and running upstairs. 。Just when everyone was still stunned, Xie Jiaming continued, "Xiao Tian, Auntie Tong and I have always liked you. I always tell her that if we could have a son-in-law like you, it would be great." 。But I only recently found out that you already have a girlfriend. 。But that's quite normal, isn't it You're so amazing, it would be strange if you didn't have a girlfriend. 。But you also know, Tongtong is a very simple child and easily hurt. If it's possible, both me and your aunt Tong hope you can give her a chance, even if it's fair competition, okayWhen he said this, Xie Jiaming's old face flushed red. He really had never thought that he would say such things. 。But for Tong Lei, he really went all out. Because he knew her personality best, once she publicly admitted Zhang Xin as his girlfriend, Tong Lei would definitely give up completely. 。He only has this one daughter, he doesn't want to see Tong Lei sad. Even if she loses her face, as a father, he will help her fight for it. 。Toward the heavens, he couldn't help but laugh and cry. Turning his head to look at Zhang Xin, he saw that the little chili pepper was blushing and looked quite angry. 。He knew he had to make a quick decision at this point, or else the hurt would likely be felt by both girls. 。After making up his mind, he said, “Uncle Xie, I can agree to everything else, but this matter, I’m afraid—” “Xiao Tian, your Uncle Xie is also a loving father. You don't have to answer me right away.” 。You can take your time to consider this. You're both still young, and it's perfectly fine to get married in seven or eight years. Maybe by then, Tongtong will have fallen for another boy. 。"Tongtong's mother interrupted Xiangtian's words and hurriedly said " 。It seems they are all worried that Tong Lei will be hurt by this. 。Damn it, isn't this pushing me too far, even in front of Zhang Wei and his whole family! My head hurts. 。Here is the content translated into English:

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!。Taking responsibility was secondary; he wasn't afraid to do so. The key was that if Lin Ling's life were truly ruined because of his negligence, he wouldn't be able to forgive himself. 。Okay, Lin Li...
