Xu Chan continued: "Brother Qiao, I could have kept this matter hidden. As long as I don't tell Zhao Qiang, no one will know, including you. However, since I first met you and had a conversation with you, I felt uneasy about this matter. I felt that you helped me so much, but I cheated on you. I was really sorry for you. This guilt has been lingering in my heart, and the more I lingered, the more uneasy I became. So, today I really couldn't help it..."

"Tell me you'll feel at ease, right?" Qiao Liang interrupted Xu Chan's words.

"Yes." Xu Chan nodded frankly, "Tell you the truth. First, I feel comforted in my heart, but although I feel at ease, I may not understand it. Second, the more familiar you are, the more I feel that you are a kind and upright person. I feel sorry for deceiving you like this and I feel that I really shouldn't deceive you. So, today I want to apologize to you sincerely. I'm sorry, I'm really sorry."

Qiao Liang looked at Xu Chan without saying a word.

Xu Chan continued: "Brother Qiao, if you are really angry..."

"Of course I'm angry. What I hate the most is deception. Do you think it's okay to apologize?" Qiao Liang said bluntly. Damn, he had been deceived by Zhang Mei for so long, and now he was deceived by the woman in front of him again. Although the content and degree of deception were different, it was still very angering.

Xu Chan lowered her head and said, "Brother Qiao, I understand that you should be angry. If, if you regret helping me, if you are really angry, then you can ask Secretary Miao to transfer me back to the township again... But, I forced Zhao Qiang to do this. Don't make things difficult for him. He just wants to help me, and the responsibility lies with me..."

I felt very guilty when I heard Xu Chan's voice, and was sad, and seemed to be about to cry.

Seeing Xu Chan's pitiful and helpless look, Qiao Liang frowned. Is she acting for herself at this moment, or is she telling the truth?

Since she has been transferred to the county party committee office, it is obviously impossible to let Miao Peilong transfer her back to the township. Personnel transfer is not a joke.

At the same time, Xu Chan took all the blame on herself and tried her best to excuse Zhao Qiang. Could it be that her relationship with Zhao Qiang and her classmates is extraordinary?

Also, Xu Chan can never tell her the truth. If she didn't tell her, Zhao Qiang would certainly not tell her, as this would become a long-term secret. Perhaps she would never know that she would always treat her as Zhao Qiang's cousin, and even for Zhao Qiang's sake, she would help her continue to make progress in the future.

With Xu Chan's intelligence, she certainly knew that it would be great for her to continue hiding, but she chose to confess to herself.

In this way, perhaps she did this because of her inner guilt and uneasiness, and her displeasure for herself, she was unwilling to continue to deceive.

In this way, Xu Chan's essence is still good and her attitude is quite sincere.

In this way, you should be lenient for confession, you should accept her apology, and you should forgive her.

Thinking of this, Qiao Liang's anger gradually faded. It was not easy for women to get involved in the officialdom, especially for women like Xu Chan who had no background and no relationship in working in the township. If she did not rely on Zhao Qiang's relationship, she might stay in that remote town until she retired.

Who doesn’t want to go up in the officialdom, and who doesn’t want to be better?

In this way, Xu Chan's approach seems to be understandable, although the method is a bit inappropriate.

Thinking of this, Qiao Liang let out a heavy sigh: "Since I have helped you transfer to the county party committee office, I will naturally not ask Secretary Miao to get you back. The personnel transfer is not a child to play house. Since you told me the truth tonight, from your personal reality and the courage to confess, maybe I should understand your approach and sympathize with your situation, I decided to accept your apology."

Xu Chan breathed a sigh of relief, raised her head, looked at Qiao Liang with bright eyes, and said movedly: "Brother Qiao, thank you, you are really a good person."

"I hope this will not happen again in the future." Qiao Liang had a tense face.

"No, definitely not. I promise not to lie to you in the future." Xu Chan said hurriedly, feeling relieved. Qiao Liang said this, as if he not only forgave himself, but also maintains a relationship with him in the future. Even if the relationship will not deepen in the future, at least he will not retreat.

Thinking of Qiao Liang's great help to himself, thinking of Qiao Liang's tolerance and generosity, thinking of the difficulties of working in the township, and thinking of the grievances he suffered in his marriage, Xu Chan's heart was intertwined with all kinds of emotions, and suddenly felt a little sad, and she couldn't help but cry, and hurriedly lowered her head and took out a tissue to wipe her tears.

Seeing Xu Chan crying, Qiao Liang sighed, Damn, what I fear most is women crying. I have forgiven you, why are you crying?

"Okay, don't cry, nothing is gone." Qiao Liang patted Xu Chan's shoulder.

Xu Chan raised her head embarrassedly: "Brother Qiao, I, I don't know why, suddenly, I feel very sad and suddenly want to cry..."

Qiao Liang sighed again: "I am the most afraid of seeing women crying. When you cry, I don't know what to say."

"Then I won't cry." Xu Chan hurriedly wiped away her tears and smiled at Qiao Liang with tears.

"This matter is revealed in one page, so don't mention it in the future. Work hard and don't tell Zhao Qiang."

"Actually, Zhao Qiang told me that he also felt that this was sorry for you."

"But I still don't want him to know." Qiao Liang said simply. He really didn't want to see Zhao Qiang apologize like Xu Chan in front of him again.

"Well, then I won't tell him, but if you are with Zhao Qiang every day, what if he always feels that he can't overcome the obstacle in his heart, what should he do to tell you?" Xu Chan hesitated.

"That's the future, let's talk about it later. Don't worry, Zhao Qiang and I are good friends. Since I understand the whole story, even if he told me, I will not have any opinions on him because of this." Qiao Liang said happily.

Xu Chan was relieved and smiled at Qiao Liangruo.

Qiao Liang thought of Xu Chan and Zhao Qiang’s good relationship with classmates. When Zhao Qiang was always single, he couldn’t help asking: “You and Zhao Qiang are really just classmates?”

Xu Chan knew what Qiao Liang meant to ask about this and nodded affirmatively: "Although Zhao Qiang and I have a good relationship, we have never crossed any boundaries."

Qiao Liang frowned. It seemed unlikely. With Xu Chan's beautiful face and figure, Zhao Qiang is a bachelor again, so how could he not be moved?

Seeing Qiao Liang frowning, Xu Chan guessed something, and then said, "Brother Qiao, I didn't lie to you, this is true."

"You just promised me that you would not lie to me anymore, but now I feel that you are not telling the truth." Qiao Liang said with a smile.

After hearing Qiao Liang say this, Xu Chan was a little nervous, but hesitated about something.

Qiao Liang was a little disappointed. Damn, this woman didn't keep her word, and she just made a promise and took it as a warning.

"Forget it, just pretend I didn't ask, and I really shouldn't have asked about other people's privacy." Qiao Liang left.

Xu Chan hurriedly followed, and saw that Qiao Liang was unhappy, and he couldn't help feeling nervous.

After a while, Xu Chan said: "Brother Qiao, I really can't speak for this..."

"If you don't know, don't say it, I don't want to know." Qiao Liang continued to walk, and he was even more sure that Xu Chan and Zhao Qiang must have an unusual relationship.

"Brother Qiao..." Xu Chan was anxious and pulled Qiao Liang's arm.
