Chapter 314: This Would Affect Your Career

Fang Ya had been working for a whole day and was about to go home when she was stopped by the section chief. “Fang Ya, I don’t know how your family’s situation is, but isn’t it bad for you to be picked up by a private car every day?”

Fang Ya tidied up her backpack and asked the section chief, “What’s not good about it?”

“If you act like this, people will think that you’re… You’re…” The section chief hesitated, as if he had something to say.

Fang Ya sneered at the section chief. “That I’m someone’s mistress?”

The section chief coughed stiffly, his face alternated between red and white. “Do you realize how that sounds? But yes, that’s the rumor.

“But if you pay attention to your words and deeds, this could be avoided,” the section chief said earnestly.

Fang Ya shook her head and said to the section chief helplessly, “I can’t care about what other people say. I just want to live my own life.”

“But you…” the section chief still felt that there was something wrong with Fang Ya’s attitude and wanted to teach her a lesson.

Fang Ya smiled at the section chief and patted his forearm lightly. “Don’t worry! If others want to say something, just say it. I don’t mind!”

“But you will affect the reputation of our department!” The section chief finally voiced his thoughts.

Fang Ya looked at the section chief and asked curiously, “Everyone has lives of their own. How would mine affect the Department?”

“Besides, I pay a chauffeur to pick me up. Who is so curious about my family’s situation?” Fang Ya did not give the section chief a chance to refute and continued to ask.

“I have to send two children to school every morning. It’s not close by and it takes time. Is there a problem with me using a car to pick them up?” Fang Ya continued to say as she looked at the section chief’s face, which was getting uglier and uglier.

“You have two children?” The section chief looked at Fang Ya in disbelief.

Fang Ya, on the other hand, asked the section chief in amusement, “Section Chief, you’re so concerned about the problem of my car picking up and sending them off, but you don’t know anything about my family?”

Fang Ya’s question stumped the section chief.

He had never liked people like Fang Ya, who had suddenly been transferred from other departments and had been investigated before.

In his heart, he was somewhat against Fang Ya, and he was even more unwilling to get to know Fang Ya.

Fang Ya did not care about what other people thought of her. She had also heard about this chief from Nie Jun, and knew that he was only a person who valued work and reputation.

However, if this man got in her way, Fang Ya would not back down.

Fang Ya saw that the wrinkles between the section chief’s brows could almost be turned into river canals, so she smiled and said, “We’re divorced and have a new family. Each of us has a child.”

When the section chief heard this, he immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

One had to know that if she had two children out of wedlock, it would be really bad!

It was fine if Fang Ya was affected alone, but it was better not to implicate the department.

Fang Ya naturally knew what the section chief was thinking. She did not argue with him and only wanted to hurry home. There was still a Buddha at home that needed to be served.

The section chief hesitated for a long time before he finally spoke again. “I feel that no matter what your family situation is like, since you work in the government, you should pay attention to your words and actions.

“If you have any thoughts that can’t be changed, I welcome you to come and have a chat with me,” the section chief said earnestly. He looked as if there was a serious problem with Fang Ya’s thoughts.

Fang Ya could not help but sigh. If this were a few decades earlier, the section chief would probably be the most advanced group of activists!

Fang Ya could not help but shake her head and smile bitterly. In the eyes of the section chief, it seemed as if she was mocking him.

The section chief was about to flare up when he heard Fang Ya speak again. “I’ve been a little busy these few days. After I’m done with the other matters, I’ll have a good chat with you.

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving first..” After Fang Ya said that, she left without giving the section chief another chance to speak.
