Exhausted

Secretary Jia was actually thinking that Jiang Yue would immediately say yes to him. After all, who wouldn't want to rule a country? Moreover, Jiang Yue was extremely talented and smart, it would surely benefit them to have a leader like her.

However, to his surprise, Jiang Yue only smiled at him before shaking her head. "Secretary Jia… I am a newly wedded woman. I can't afford to rule a country and leave my husband alone. We just got married. I don't want to neglect him."

"Eh?" Secretary Jia did not know if he wanted to laugh or cry at Jiang Yue's statement. He was asking her to rule a country and she was talking about being newly married… wait... "Did you just say 'married'?" His eyes immediately widened as the realization hit him. "I... Wow! Congratulations!" Now, Secretary Jia understood why Jiang Yue acted the way she did when she heard that Fu Jin had got shot.

"Thank you, Secretary Jia." Jiang Yue said, her eyes sparkling, as her lips lifted into a smile.
