Chapter 2320 I Don’t Want to Go

Qin Feng and Zhou Qian walked to the balcony together. After Qin Feng sat down, he directly took Zhou Qian's hand and let Zhou Qian sit on his lap.

"What do you want to tell me?" Zhou Qian asked with a smile.

"You're asking even though you already know the answer. You asked me to come over for dinner today."

"I told you, you traitor."

Both of them couldn't help but laugh.

"I'm sorry for making you worry again." Qin Feng stroked Zhou Qian's hand.

"Qin Feng, what happened to you? Why can't you tell me?" Zhou Qian asked.

"It's not that I can't tell you, but I don't think it's necessary to tell you. Telling you will make you feel uncomfortable."

"As your wife, even if it makes me feel bad, I have to know what happened to my husband, right? If you don't tell me and you're unhappy all day, I'll feel even worse."

"I know I was wrong." Qin Feng nodded.

"So what happened? Why did you feel like you lost your soul after going to Beijing?"

"This time my brother took me to Beijing to visit the Organization Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. The leaders of the Organization Department want me to take up a post in Shazhou." Qin Feng had already decided to tell Zhou Qian about this, so naturally he had nothing to hesitate about.

"Shazhou? Do you mean Shazhou City, Ganliang Province?" Zhou Qian was surprised.

"Yes, it is Shazhou City."

"Then... then what position will you take up there?"

"mayor."

"Mayor...that's a good thing. You got promoted, and you became the chief administrative officer in one step. You can go to a city or a prefecture to be the chief administrative officer and show your talents. Isn't this what you have been dreaming of in the past two years? Why are you so depressed about such a good thing and why don't you want to tell me?" Zhou Qian asked.

"I refused." Qin Feng said.

"Refuse? Why would you refuse? Why would you refuse such a good thing?" Zhou Qian looked at Qin Feng in confusion.

"You think this is a good thing?"

"This is certainly a good thing. Hasn't this always been your dream? Moreover, there aren't many mayors at the age of 36 in the country, right? If you take this step, your future development will be limitless. Am I understanding wrong?" Zhou Qian asked.

"Well...it's not that absolute, but if I really take this step, as long as I do a good job on Shazhou, the future opportunities and prospects will be bright." Qin Feng nodded.

"Yes, then why did you refuse?" Zhou Qian asked back.

"Wife, I'm going to Shazhou City, Shazhou City in Ganliang Province."

"I know. I'm not illiterate. Of course I know it's Shazhou City in Ganliang Province. Although our group has no business there, I know this place."

"Do you know how far the sandbar is from here? I checked it two days ago. It's more than 2,200 kilometers. It takes 24 hours of driving day and night." Qin Feng said.

Zhou Qian was stunned when she heard this, then asked with a smile: "Is this why you are so depressed?"

"I'm not depressed, really. I have rejected the organization's opinion, and the organization did not force me." Qin Feng lied.

"Do you really not want to go, or are you afraid that I will be unhappy?" Zhou Qian asked.

"I don't want to go there myself. Shazhou is too far away. It's in the northwest, and the conditions are tough. I've lived in the south of the Yangtze River all my life, so I won't be able to adapt there."

"The situation on the sandbar is very complicated. If I go there, I will just be cleaning up other people's messes. And I won't be welcomed by others. I will only be excluded and marginalized."

"It's so nice for me to stay in Zhongjiang. I have a wife and children, and a good job. I work from nine to five and there's no pressure. Although the future career development situation is not very good, you know me. I'm not very keen on being an official, and that's not my dream. And I don't like money. Besides, do we still need to discuss money in our family?"

"So why should I give up everything I have now and go to the sandbar to suffer? Isn't that something only a fool would do?" Qin Feng gave a lot of reasons.

"Is this what you really think? Why don't I believe it? Is this something the Qin Feng I know would say?" Zhou Qian asked with a smile.

"My eldest brother recommended this to me, and he meant well. But for me right now, staying in the Policy Research Office is the best option."

"Okay, that's it. Stop thinking about it. It's just a simple thing. Let's go to bed!" After Qin Feng finished speaking, he stood up while holding Zhou Qian, ready to go back to his room to sleep.

"Wait a minute!" Zhou Qian grabbed Qin Feng.

"what happened?"

"You really don't want to go?" Zhou Qian asked again.

"I really don't want to go. How could I lie to you about such a small thing? I'm going to bed." Qin Feng said and walked into the bedroom first.

Zhou Qian stood there looking at Qin Feng's back and thinking for a long time before entering the room.

Because Zhou Qian always said that he was unhappy, Qin Feng didn't want Zhou Qian to worry about it anymore, so from then on Qin Feng deliberately acted very relaxed in front of Zhou Qian and was happy all day long.

What Qin Feng didn't know was that the more he tried to be "happy", the more Zhou Qian became suspicious. Zhou Qian was such a smart woman, how could Qin Feng hide what he was thinking from her?

Two days passed like this, and this day Zhou Qian got off work on time and went home to have dinner for the first time ever.

After dinner, Qin Feng took his daughter to the yard to do some exercise and play games as usual. Then, after his daughter took a bath, he sat by the bed and told her a bedtime story until she fell asleep completely. These are Qin Feng's daily routine.

Because from the time his daughter was born to the year before last, Qin Feng had hardly spent a few days with his daughter, and he is now trying his best to make up for his absence as a father.

Qin Feng just came out of his daughter's room and closed the door carefully.

"Falling asleep?" Zhou Qian appeared at the door.

"Well, I just fell asleep."

"Look at how she has become because of your pampering. She won't go to bed unless you tell her a story. What will she do if you're not at home? Will she not go to bed?"

"Then I'm at home. Where else would I be if I'm not home?" Qin Feng said with a smile.

"Just continue to spoil her! Come for a walk with me." Zhou Qian said to Qin Feng.

"What time is it? Still going out for a walk? What's wrong? Are you worried about something?"

"Well, come walk with me for a while."

The two walked out of the yard and walked in the community, Zhou Qian holding Qin Feng's arm.

"Qin Feng, do you know who I met these two days?" Zhou Qian is a domineering and decisive female president outside, but in front of Qin Feng she always looks like a little woman.

"How would I know? Which Fortune 500 company CEO or which provincial party secretary or governor?" Qin Feng asked with a smile.

"I made an appointment with my sister to go to Li Jing's place for a SPA last night."
