In officialdom: After she left, I rose rapidly through the ranks!

Let's break up?

These words stunned Chen Jingcheng.

He came to see Wang Yueyue in high spirits to tell her that he was no longer working in Haiwan Town and was about to be transferred to the county government office.

By then, Chen Jingcheng will be able to spend more time with her in the county town, and he will have a bright future. Everything he promised will come to him sooner or later, as long as he works hard.

However, before he could tell Wang Yueyue all of this, he heard these words.

Seeing the hint of reluctance in Wang Yueyue's eyes, Chen Jingcheng remained silent for a moment before asking, "Yueyue, is there pressure from your family?"

"If that's the case, it's okay. I can talk to your uncle and aunt. This time, I'm confident I can persuade them."

"Oh, right, you don't know yet, but I'm about to be transferred to the county. Then I'll be able to stay with you all the time."

"I know I haven't spent much time with you since I started working in Haiwan Town, but don't worry, it won't be like that in the future."

However, before Chen Jingcheng could continue, Wang Yueyue seemed to grow impatient. Looking at Chen Jingcheng, there was not a trace of tenderness left in her eyes.

"Chen Jingcheng, I admit that I loved you, and I still have feelings for you now, but we are really not suitable for each other."

"I tried, but I really see no hope with you."

"You have absolutely nothing right now, yet you're already talking about compensating me tenfold or a hundredfold. When did you become like this? Is it fun to talk big?"

"And, will you be transferred to work in the county seat?"

A cold smile appeared on Wang Yueyue's lips, and a hint of disdain flashed in her eyes.

"Even if you're transferred to work in the county town, what then? You still won't have much of a future. How long will it take you to actually become a deputy section chief?"

"Once you reach the level of a full section chief, and then you need to secure a good position, how long will that take?"

"You have no connections, no money, no relationships, no background. Do you really think you can climb to a position of real power through your own efforts?"

"Jingcheng, this isn't school anymore. Let's not be so naive. In the end, you still just want our family to help you!"

"They'll help you get a job transfer, help you get a promotion, and even try to minimize your financial burden for your wedding. And in the end, will my parents, out of concern for me, even help you buy a house?"

"And then what? After we help you, will you help your relatives too?"

"Chen Jingcheng, I've already seen the future we'll have together. I'm sorry, that's not the future I want."

"I don't blame you, and you shouldn't blame me. If anyone's to blame, blame the world, the real world. We should all be more realistic."

At this point, Wang Yueyue suddenly looked out the window. A black SUV worth hundreds of thousands of yuan was parked in front of the restaurant. A tall and handsome man got out of the car with an umbrella and smiled when he saw Wang Yueyue.

When Wang Yueyue saw this man, she couldn't help but blush, and her heart suddenly raced.

Especially when you think about how Chen Jingcheng arrived here on a dilapidated bicycle, soaked to the bone, he must have looked incredibly pathetic.

The man before them was Lin Zhongfei, and he was so handsome and composed.

People are afraid of comparison; once there is comparison, everything changes.

Chen Jingcheng witnessed this scene.

After seeing it, I couldn't bring myself to say what I had originally intended to say.

"Your friend?"

Upon hearing Chen Jingcheng's question, Wang Yueyue made no attempt to hide anything and replied directly, "He's a friend, and also the blind date I introduced him to."

"His name is Lin Zhongfei. My parents are very satisfied with him. As for his family background, I think just by looking at this car, you should understand that you can't compare to him."

"During this time, you weren't with me, but he was always with me, shopping with me, eating with me, chatting with me, traveling with me, and doing everything I wanted to do."

"Although I don't want to admit it, and I feel a little sorry for you, I don't want to lie to you. I do seem to want to be with him more right now."

Before Chen Jingcheng could continue speaking, Wang Yueyue slowly stood up, looked at him with a complex expression in her eyes, and said softly, "Jingcheng, I'm sorry. You are a good person, but you can't give me the life I want."

I don't expect your blessing, but I hope you won't hold a grudge against me.

"I wish you find your true love soon, and I wish you success so you can live the life you want. But in the future, never promise a girl anything you can't keep. That's not love, nor is it a promise; it's just pretense and hypocrisy!"

After saying this, Wang Yueyue walked away and left the Western restaurant.

Through the glass, Chen Jingcheng saw Lin Zhongfei holding an umbrella for Wang Yueyue in the rain, and watched as Wang Yueyue placed her hand in Lin Zhongfei's palm. Seeing the two of them smiling happily in the rain, Chen Jingcheng suddenly felt very sad.

I even feel like crying.

Is this my first love?

No, it doesn't seem so. But this is a relationship I've been in for three years. How much I've given during those three years, perhaps only I know.

A blessing?

I'm sorry, I can't do that.

But perhaps Wang Yueyue is right, but in the end, Chen Jingcheng will prove her wrong.

I wasn't lying, nor was I being perfunctory or hypocritical. I genuinely wanted to give Wang Yueyue the best of everything, and I was confident I could do it.

Why not give yourself some time?

Just as Chen Jingcheng was lost in sadness and silence, a well-dressed woman sat down opposite him.

Chen Jingcheng looked up at the person who had come, somewhat surprised.

"Auntie, what brings you here?"

The person who arrived was none other than Liu Qing.

In fact, Liu Qing had seen everything, and naturally she was worried, which is why she came along.

Liu Qing was very satisfied with Wang Yueyue's performance.

But she was still worried about Chen Jingcheng, afraid that he would continue to pester her. So, she took the initiative to show herself, not for any other reason than to make Chen Jingcheng give up his hopes and understand that he could never be with Wang Yueyue.

Forcibly pursuing the matter will have serious consequences.

Looking at Chen Jingcheng, Liu Qing said with a smile, "I saw everything that just happened."

"Yueyue broke up with you, you must be very sad."

Upon hearing this, Chen Jingcheng nodded and said, "It is very sad, after all, I love Yueyue."

Do you love me?

Liu Qing smiled and said, "If you love her, you should let her be happy and live the life she wants."

"Yueyue loved you too, but now she doesn't love you anymore, or rather, she doesn't love you as much anymore. You can't blame her, after all, she gave you a chance, and we gave you a chance too."

"But you still have your family, which can't give Yueyue the life she wants. In fact, you might even be a burden to her."

"So, Chen Jingcheng, we're breaking up today, let's cut ties completely."

"I don't want you to bother Yueyue anymore."

"You understand what I mean, right?"
