Chapter 2718 Work Pressure

"Have you encountered any trouble at work recently?" Yang Yuxin asked after looking at Qin Feng.

"Why do you ask?" Qin Feng was curious.

"You look a little haggard lately." Yang Yuxin said.

"It's normal to look haggard. No one in this job is immune to this. You're just performing in front of the camera for others to see."

"No, it's not because you're tired, because you not only look haggard, but you've also been quite irritable lately. You weren't like this before." Yang Yuxin shook her head.

Qin Feng smiled and said, "You observe me very carefully."

"You are the man I love, of course I will pay attention to your every move."

Qin Feng pretended to smoke and didn't respond.

Seeing Qin Feng's expression, Yang Yuxin smiled and continued to ask, "Have you encountered any unpleasant things at work recently?"

"When it comes to work, there are definitely more times when things don't go as planned. If everything goes smoothly, it wouldn't be called work." Qin Feng laughed.

Yang Yuxin looked at Qin Feng and smiled.

At this time, there was a knock on the door. Qin Feng was surprised that who would come here so late at night.

"Go get the takeaway I ordered. It's inconvenient for me to see people dressed like this. I put this on specially for you and you alone can see it." Yang Yuxin said.

Yang Yuxin's words made Qin Feng very embarrassed. He stood up and went directly to the door to get the takeaway. He didn't know what was wrong with Yang Yuxin.

Qin Feng took the takeaway from the door. It was wrapped in a paper bag and Qin Feng didn't know what was in it.

When Qin Feng came back with the takeaway, Yang Yuxin had already taken out a bottle of Moutai from somewhere and was pouring wine into two glasses at the table.

"What are you going to do?" Qin Feng was confused.

Yang Yuxin didn't say anything. She took the takeaway from Qin Feng, unpacked it, and placed it on the table. There were four dishes and one soup in total, all of which were good dishes to go with alcohol.

Yang Yuxin arranged the dishes and placed the wine glass in front of Qin Feng: "Sit down."

"Why are you drinking so late at night? What's wrong with you?"

"Are you a friend? If you are, sit down and have a drink with me." Yang Yuxin said.

"Are you worried about something? If you have something on your mind, you can tell me. There's no need to drink. You're a woman..."

"As a mayor, you shouldn't be sexist. Why can't women drink? You're being chauvinistic."

"I didn't say women can't drink alcohol, it's just... don't you like drinking red wine? When did I see you drinking white wine?" Qin Feng asked.

"I do like drinking red wine, but the problem is that you don't like it. You like drinking white wine, right? So I specially prepared two bottles of white wine here. After you drink this bottle, there is still one bottle left. Don't look down on me. I can drink a lot of white wine. You may not be able to drink more than me. It will be embarrassing if I knock you down." Yang Yuxin "provoked" Qin Feng with a smile.

Qin Feng sat down: "Okay, then I'll drink with you. Tell me, what's on your mind?"

"I'm asking you this, not you asking me." Yang Yuxin said with a smile.

"What do you mean?" Qin Feng was stunned.

"Who wants to go first?" Yang Yuxin raised her glass.

Qin Feng had never had a drink and a toast with a woman before, so he found it very strange.

Qin Feng clinked his glass with Yang Yuxin helplessly and told her: "You don't have to drink it all, just take a sip. It's easy to get drunk if you drink it all."

But before Qin Feng could finish his words, Yang Yuxin had already finished it in one gulp.

"You, a grown man, are not as straightforward as me, a woman, when drinking. Most of us people in the northwest are generous, including women. We never hesitate when drinking." Yang Yuxin teased Qin Feng.

"Okay, I won't be so generous, okay?" Qin Feng said with a smile and drank a glass as well.

"How is it? Did you find the feeling of drinking with brothers?" Yang Yuxin asked with a smile while putting food into Qin Feng's bowl.

"What do you want to do?" Qin Feng has realized that Yang Yuxin is not worried about something, but is coming for him.

"Do you have any other friends on the sandbar besides me?" Yang Yuxin asked.

"If that's what you mean, then no. I came to Shazhou alone to work. Except for you, everyone I know is just a work relationship. They can't be considered friends, but colleagues." Qin Feng replied.

"Have you encountered any problems at work recently? Are you under a lot of pressure?" Yang Yuxin asked again.

Qin Feng glanced at Yang Yuxin and said with a smile, "Are you doing this specifically to relieve my stress?"

"Men and women are different. Women will take the initiative to talk to their besties when they have something on their mind, but men, on the other hand, are too concerned about their reputation to bother with anything. No matter how many worries they have or how much pressure they are under, they won't talk unless there's wine and buddies around."

"Qin Feng, men and women are the same. If they have too many things on their minds and are under a lot of pressure, they will feel uncomfortable and even sick. There's wine tonight. I'm your buddy now. Talk to me and the pressure will be much less." Yang Yuxin looked at Qin Feng and said.

Qin Feng laughed in silence. It turned out that Yang Yuxin did this for this tonight. Although he felt that Yang Yuxin acted like a child playing house, he was still very touched in his heart. This woman was really good to him, and this kind of kindness was not annoying at all. It always touched his heart.

"Thank you for your kindness, but Yuxin, I really don't have anything to worry about. As for work pressure, I have had it recently, and it's not small, but this pressure can't be relieved by just a drink, and I can bear it. I still have the ability to withstand pressure." Qin Feng ate the food and drank a sip of wine.

"Research shows that talking can release suppressed emotions and reduce psychological burdens. By sharing your troubles with someone you trust, you can gain emotional support, help sort out your thoughts, and come up with better coping strategies."

"People are like balloons. If they carry too many things in their hearts, they will feel bloated and uncomfortable even if they don't burst. They need to release some things occasionally so that they can go into battle lightly." Yang Yuxin said as she poured wine into Qin Feng's glass.

"Look at yourself, how old are you? You already have white hair, and you look much older than when I first saw you at Shazhou. It shows how much pressure you are under, especially in recent times. I can clearly feel that your mental state is different from before." Yang Yuxin said, looking at Qin Feng.

Qin Feng also looked at Yang Yuxin. He saw concern and heartache in Yang Yuxin's eyes. People's eyes don't lie. Qin Feng could feel Yang Yuxin's true feelings.

Qin Feng's heart became warm because Yang Yuxin's words touched his heart.

Since Qin Feng came to Shazhou, no one knew how much pressure he was under, and no one understood how pathetic he was as the mayor.

The pressure for others when being mayor is just work pressure, but the pressure for Qin Feng is his own career future and life. He knows very well that if he is not careful while working in Shazhou, he may lose his life.

Therefore, Qin Feng has always been cautious and careful, thinking twice before doing anything, and thinking three or four steps ahead before taking a step...

Especially after Liu Xiaonan jumped to her death, Qin Feng felt overwhelmed with guilt, which made him feel suffocated these days.
