Chapter 1062

Zheng Ru's temperament was relatively straightforward, and she was relatively upright, so she said righteously, "Dad, aren't you using the banner of inspection for public-funded tourism? This violates the unit's regulations."

Zheng Zheng Tulu chuckled disapprovingly: "You silly girl, we call it an inspection, who dares to say it's tourism? Regulations are set by people; can't your brain be a bit more flexible? Like you, so stubborn, when will you be able to climb up?" Thinking of the news Director Zhu had leaked to him, he then said with a look of longing: "But it's coming soon, soon our Ruru will be able to achieve something."

Zheng Ru looked at him with confusion and asked, "Dad, what do you mean?"

Zheng Zheng Tulu chuckled and said, "It doesn't mean anything." He took a sip of tea and continued: "I've booked your ticket. You'll be on the same plane as the other leaders of the unit the day after tomorrow. Once you get to Hainan Island, I won't care about you; you can play however you want. That's fine, right?"

Zheng Ru had been working at the Construction Committee for more than half a year. Since graduating from a diploma mill in Singapore and returning to the country, she hadn't really gone out to play. She thought about it, and it was fine; she could just take this opportunity to go out and cultivate her mood, so she said with a smile, "That's about right, it's settled that you won't care about me."

Zheng Zheng Tulu's wife said gently with a shallow smile, "You've been working for so long, it's good to go out and play." Although she said this with a smile, her heart felt a bit lonely at this moment. During the seven-day New Year holiday, it was originally a time for the family to reunite, but her husband and daughter were both going to Hainan for tourism, leaving her alone at home for the New Year. A sour feeling surged in her heart.

Having accompanied Director Zhu to play mahjong all afternoon, she hadn't won a single cent and was left exhausted. After finishing this cup of tea, Zheng Zheng Tulu stretched and went to the bedroom to rest. Zheng Ru had also drunk some alcohol while eating with her college classmates, and feeling a bit dizzy, she also stood up and returned to her room.

Only Zheng Zheng Tulu's wife, Ma Li, was left sitting in the living room, thinking about how she had been neglected by Zheng Zheng Tulu all these years. Although she didn't have to worry about food or clothing and had endless money, when a woman has no man to appreciate her, even sitting on a mountain of gold and silver is superfluous. What she wanted wasn't material satisfaction, but spiritual and physical comfort. But for so many years, as Zheng Zheng Tulu's official position grew higher, he neglected her more and more. Now, he basically didn't care about her, his wife, like a vase placed at home, losing her self-worth.

For some reason, Zhao Desan's appearance inexplicably surfaced in Ma Li's mind again. That brilliant smile, handsome face, and tall body made her heart palpitate faintly whenever she thought of him. It was a pity she had only seen him once, yet she couldn't forget him. After thinking for a while, Ma Li sighed secretly. When she was about to stand up and return to her room, she suddenly saw Zheng Zheng Tulu's mobile phone on the coffee table. She paused for a moment, walked up, picked it up, flipped through the address book to find Zhao Desan's number, memorized it in her heart, and when she put the phone down and returned to the room, Zheng Zheng Tulu was already asleep. Looking at the dead-asleep Zheng Zheng Tulu, Ma Li felt her life was truly sad; wanting to have a husband-and-wife relationship with him was simply harder than ascending to heaven.

Ma Li stood by the bed and took off her clothes one by one, stripping herself naked. She looked at her body in the full-length mirror, admiring herself. Her snow-white skin like congealed fat, her tall and graceful body, and her still-upright and full chest were not a bit worse than other women. Why didn't he want to do that with me?

Ma Li really didn't understand, but she forgot the fact that men are all unfaithful animals. As a big official in the government like Zheng Zheng Tulu, he had nights of singing and dancing all year round and never lacked women around him. The pursuit of freshness had already made him lose interest in old things.

The next day at work, not long after Xia Xia Jian came to the office and sat down, he turned his head and asked Zheng Ru with a smirk: "Little Zheng, has your dad come to the unit?"

"What's the matter?" Zheng Ru turned her face and asked coldly.

Xia Xia Jian smirked and said, "It's nothing, just asking."

"He's here." Zheng Ru turned her head and said while working.

Xia Xia Jian said "Oh," sat absent-mindedly for a while, took out a cigarette case, stood up, and muttered to himself: "Going to smoke a cigarette." Coming out of the office, he walked straight toward the third floor. On the stairs leading to the third floor, Ma Ma Debang's voice came from behind: "Little Xia, where are you going?"

Xia Xia Jian looked back and saw Ma Ma Debang following behind with a briefcase. He said respectfully and with a chuckle: "Going to find Section Chief Zheng."

Ever since Zheng Zheng Tulu arranged for Xia Xia Jian to study at the Party School last time, Ma Ma Debang had clearly noticed that this guy's contact with Zheng Zheng Tulu had increased a lot. It looked like he wanted to compete for favor with Zhao Desan. In order to climb up the relationship with Su Qing and take his official career to a higher level, Ma Ma Debang had always stood on Zhao Desan's side, so he felt a bit disgusted that Xia Xia Jian often went to find Zheng Zheng Tulu to climb relationships. "You keep sneaking into Section Chief Zheng's office for no reason, running several times a day, aren't your legs tired?" Ma Ma Debang asked with a smile, his words laced with thorns.

Anyone who understood could hear what this meant. Xia Xia Jian's expression was a bit awkward. He chuckled and said, "Discussing some work matters."

Ma Ma Debang chuckled with a fake smile: "Little Xia, I've discovered that since you went to study at the Party School for a while, your consciousness has improved a lot after coming back. You've started to become so serious and responsible about work."

Xia Xia Jian smirked awkwardly. While speaking, they reached the door of Zheng Zheng Tulu's office on the third floor. Ma Ma Debang looked at him with strange eyes, patted him on the shoulder, and walked toward his own office.

Damn! A deputy still acting so arrogant! Xia Xia Jian looked at Ma Ma Debang's back unhappily, his face piled with enthusiastic smiles, and he raised his hand and knocked on the door three times "Dong, dong, dong."

"Come in." Zheng Zheng Tulu responded from inside.

Xia Xia Jian then pushed the door open gently and entered, greeting with a full face of smiles: "Good morning, Section Chief Zheng."

Zheng Zheng Tulu was a bit surprised that this guy came to find him early in the morning, so he looked him up and down with strange eyes and asked: "Little Xia, what's the matter coming here early in the morning?"

"There is a situation I want to report to you, Section Chief Zheng."

Zheng Zheng Tulu leaned on the chair with interest, tilted his head, and asked: "What situation?"

Xia Xia Jian turned around, closed the door, walked up, leaned over, and said mysteriously: "Section Chief Zheng, the situation I want to report to you today is about our Section Chief Lan and little Zhao."

Zheng Zheng Tulu frowned slightly, looked at him with confusion, and instructed: "What is it, go ahead."

Xia Xia Jian leaned over and whispered: "Section Chief Zheng, I discovered something yesterday. When I went to Section Chief Lan's office to find her, I pushed the door open and saw little Zhao grabbing Section Chief Lan's hand. The relationship between the two doesn't look like ordinary intimacy."

Zheng Zheng Tulu straightened his body upon hearing this, looked at him with astonishment, and asked: "Little Xia, is it true or false? You didn't frame little Zhao, did you?"

Xia Xia Jian immediately shook his head like a rattle, looking at him with an anxious expression: "Section Chief Zheng, everything I said is the truth, I really didn't lie to you. I saw it with my own eyes yesterday. I wanted to come up and report to you in the afternoon, but you weren't there."

Zheng Zheng Tulu calmed down and stared at Xia Xia Jian carefully for a while. He couldn't detect that he was lying from his expression and eyes. Zheng Zheng Tulu took a cigarette from the cigarette case on the table and put it in his mouth. Xia Xia Jian, extremely observant, immediately lit his lighter and handed it over.

Zheng Zheng Tulu took two puffs of the cigarette, leaned back on the boss chair, tilted his head, and asked him: "Little Xia, are you sure you didn't see wrong?"

Xia Xia Jian shook his head anxiously: "Section Chief Zheng, I really didn't see wrong. I saw Zhao Desan grabbing Section Chief Lan's hand with my own eyes. The relationship between the two looks very ambiguous."

Zheng Zheng Tulu smoked, squinted his eyes, and began to ponder. All along, he only felt that Lan Mei's attitude toward Zhao Desan had changed from having opinions at the beginning to highly regarding and appreciating him later. He only felt that Lan Mei should be regarding his talent, and he didn't pay much attention to it. But after he found out the truth about the disappearance of Lan Mei's lewd photos from his phone, he knew that brat Zhao Desan had been secretly helping Lan Mei to deal with him. If it weren't for the pressure from Su Qing's side regarding the Party School matter, Zheng Zheng Tulu would have wanted to deal with Zhao Desan long ago. It was precisely because Zhao Desan now had a backer holding heavy power that Zheng Zheng Tulu had never dared to move him. Now that he knew that Zhao Desan was not only helping Lan Mei to deal with him, but there was also such an intimate affair between the two, Zheng Zheng Tulu really couldn't accept that the woman he favored would be snatched by this brat little Zhao who had just arrived. His disgust for him deepened further.
