He sat down beside He Jinyan, clumsily extended his right arm, and hugged He Jinyan's body, trying to offer her some comfort. He Jinyan threw herself into Weng Guoying's arms, using all her strength to hug Weng Guoying's body tightly, as if Weng Guoying would fly away from her arms if she loosened her grip.

He Jinyan's shoulders heaved, and she cried even harder. Her tears soaked Weng Guoying's clothes. Weng Guoying's left hand hung in the air, wanting to habitually stroke He Jinyan's long hair, but he didn't dare to be presumptuous. After all, he and He Jinyan were no longer husband and wife in the eyes of the law.

However, after a while, Weng Guoying's hand still stroked He Jinyan's long hair. Such comfort made He Jinyan slowly calm down. Her crying stopped, but she still hugged Weng Guoying's body tightly, fearing that Weng Guoying would leave if she let go.

I don't know how long it had been, but He Jinyan raised her head and looked at Weng Guoying infatuatedly. Weng Guoying took out a handkerchief, wiped the tear stains on He Jinyan's face, and said softly to He Jinyan, "Jinyan, you've lost weight."

He Jinyan said, "Haven't you lost weight too?"

Weng Guoying said, "Yes, we've both lost weight."

He Jinyan said, "Guoying, Chairman Hu from our bureau's labor union came to see me yesterday."

He Jinyan worked at the Post and Telecommunications Bureau.

Weng Guoying asked, "What did she come to see you for?"

He Jinyan said, "She said your policy has been implemented and you no longer need to fear anyone's retaliation. She asked me if I was willing to remarry you."

Weng Guoying said, "How did you answer?"

He Jinyan said, "I am willing!"

He Jinyan looked at Weng Guoying with bright eyes, but Weng Guoying's gaze avoided hers, and he looked at the wall beside them.

He Jinyan's gaze slowly changed from fiery to suspicious, and she asked with a trembling voice, "Guoying, are you unwilling to remarry me?"

Weng Guoying looked at He Jinyan again and shook his head, saying, "I cannot remarry you."

He Jinyan didn't hear that Weng Guoying said he couldn't, not that he was unwilling. She said emotionally, "Do you not love me anymore? Do you have another woman? Are you going to be transferred to the province and look down on me now?"

Weng Guoying looked at He Jinyan, his eyes full of sorrow: "Jinyan, I love you, I will always love you. I don't have another woman, I will never have another woman, and I will never look down on you!"

He Jinyan's eyes gained some vitality: "Then why won't you remarry me?"

Weng Guoying said, "Jinyan, I've made you suffer these past two years. I owe you too much."

He Jinyan said, "But everything is in the past now, we can start over!"

Weng Guoying said, "Jinyan, listen to me. This time when I go to the provincial capital, the road ahead will still be very difficult, and I will still offend many people. I'm afraid that after we remarry, I will still implicate you and our son. Jinyan, help me take good care of our son. If it's too hard for you alone, find another good man..."

He Jinyan shook her head and cried, "Guoying, don't say that. I'm not afraid of anything. I just want to follow you. Wherever you go, I go. Let's never be separated again."

Weng Guoying's tears also welled up: "Jinyan, don't be like this, don't cry!"

He Jinyan hugged Weng Guoying tightly and said, "Guoying, if you don't agree to remarry me, there's no point in me living!"

He Jinyan was a girl from the mountains in the west of Qingxi County. Her feelings were fiery and outward. She loved Weng Guoying deeply. When they divorced last time, she was extremely reluctant and signed her name on the divorce agreement only because of the situation. But after signing, she regretted it. This time, she didn't want to let go of Weng Guoying's hand no matter what.

How could Weng Guoying not love He Jinyan deeply? Amidst He Jinyan's sobbing, which sounded like a lonely ape crying blood, he finally couldn't hold back. He hugged He Jinyan and said, "Fine, let's go remarry tomorrow!"

He Jinyan was overjoyed. She raised her head and said, "Are you telling the truth?"

Weng Guoying let go of all his inner knots and nodded, saying, "True!"

He Jinyan said, "You won't go back on your word?"

Weng Guoying shook his head and said, "I won't go back on my word!"

He Jinyan ignored the tears and snot on her face and kissed Weng Guoying's face, as if kissing a treasure she had lost and regained.

Weng's mother, lying in her room, had been listening to the movements in the living room. When she heard Weng Guoying say they would remarry tomorrow, a gratified smile appeared on her face.

Early the next morning, Weng Guoying and He Jinyan went to the Civil Affairs Bureau's marriage registration office together and received their marriage certificate again. When they walked out of the Civil Affairs Bureau's gate, they held hands and looked at each other sweetly, just like a pair of newlyweds.

From this day on, they were a married couple again.

After the remarriage procedures were completed, Weng Guoying went to Xu Yupu's office to request an audience. As soon as Xu Yupu heard that Weng Guoying had arrived, he immediately sent away the cadre he was meeting and let Weng Guoying in.

As soon as Weng Guoying entered, Xu Yupu had him sit on the guest sofa, brewed a cup of tea for him, and sat on another guest sofa, sitting opposite Weng Guoying.

Xu Yupu smiled and said, "Comrade Guoying, when did you return?"

Weng Guoying said, "County Magistrate Xu, I returned yesterday afternoon."

Xu Yupu said, "Did you see Vice Governor Lu this time when you went to the province?"

Weng Guoying nodded and said, "I did."

Xu Yupu said, "Then Vice Governor Lu also told you about transferring you to the Provincial Water Conservancy Department?"

Weng Guoying said, "Yes. County Magistrate Xu, I also want to thank you for helping me implement the policy and reissue my wages."
