Chapter 1224: Why Are You Calling So Early

It took a long time for the call to connect, and Zheng Tulu's exhausted voice came through: "Comrade Xiao Zhao, why are you calling so early in the morning!"

"Oh, sorry, Director Zheng, I dialed the wrong number." As soon as Zhao Desan heard his reaction, he immediately determined that he was overthinking. Without waiting for Zheng Tulu to speak, he hung up the phone. Only then did he feel relieved and rushed to the "Will You Come Tonight" hotel with an incredibly strong desire to conquer.

Ten minutes later, the car stopped in front of the hotel. Zhao Desan looked up at the hotel sign. The vermilion characters looked particularly flirtatious. After walking in, the landlady at the bar immediately called him with a smile and asked: "Handsome, are you here to get a room? Come and register."

"Looking for someone, my friend is here." Zhao Desan replied.

"When did your friend come over?" To ensure Zhao Desan wasn't a thief, the landlady continued to ask with a smile.

"In the morning." Zhao Desan was already a frequent visitor to various hotels. Facing the questioning, he appeared indifferent and calm.

The landlady nodded with a smile and said "Oh," without digging any deeper, because the only person who came to get a room all morning was Ma Li, who came half an hour ago.

Zhao Desan walked into the elevator as if nothing had happened, pressed the floor, and a few dozen seconds later, the elevator arrived. He came out, went directly to the door of room 521, and started knocking on the door while whistling.

Hearing someone knocking on the door, Ma Li, who had been in a tense state, quickly stood up, walked forward, opened the peephole, and looked outside. She saw Zhao Desan standing outside. Seeing this man who had let her experience unprecedented happiness again, she had an urgent desire to be held in his arms. With an excited and unbearable mood, Ma Li opened the door.

As soon as the door opened, Zhao Desan looked in. Ma Li's outfit today made him feel a sense of brightness. This outfit looked particularly charming. For a moment, it seemed that all the words that could describe female beauty could be found on her—intellectual, amorous, charming, solemn, mature...

Zhao Desan stared at her without blinking, which made Ma Li, who was already nervous and uneasy, have an even faster heartbeat. Even her speech seemed a bit unnatural. She blushed slightly and said: "Comrade Xiao Zhao, you... why are you looking at me like this?"

Zhao Desan had a mouth that could spit lotus flowers and could always grasp a woman's psychology and say some pleasing things. So he laughed and praised: "Sister Ma, you are really beautiful today."

Hearing his words, Ma Li felt very satisfied. A happy smile appeared on her face. She lowered her head slightly, moved to the side a bit shyly, and said a bit bashfully: "First... come in."

Zhao Desan looked at her with ill intentions and walked into the room. When he turned back, Ma Li quickly closed the door because of nervousness.

"Sister Ma, why did you suddenly think of letting me accompany you today? Did our Director Zheng bully you?" Zhao Desan didn't know the real purpose of Ma Li making an appointment with him today, so he wanted to make it clear.

It was Ma Li's first time being alone with a man other than her husband outside of her home, so she was inevitably a bit nervous. She brushed her hair and whispered: "Comrade Xiao Zhao, you sit down first, sit down and talk slowly."

Zhao Desan sat down on the bed, and Ma Li also walked up and sat down at a distance from him, saying with some grievance: "Comrade Xiao Zhao, I feel my life is very meaningless."

Ma Li's reaction made Zhao Desan feel a bit surprised, and he asked her very puzzled: "Sister Ma, how do you say that? You are now the leader's wife, you don't worry about food and clothing, you have food to eat and money to spend, how can you say your life is meaningless?"

Ma Li smiled bitterly and said: "Outsiders all think so, but only I know whether I am happy or not. For the sake of the family, I didn't go out to work. I stayed at home all day long, and there was no one to talk to. Every day I just wanted to wait for Director Zheng and Ruru to come home at night so we could chat. But I am a woman after all. I... I am a normal woman. I also need people's understanding, need to chat and talk to people. But Director Zheng... he... he comes back very late almost every night. As soon as he comes back, he sleeps and ignores me. You say, as a woman, I... who can I tell my grievances to?... Wuwuwu..."

The more Ma Li talked, the more emotional she became. As she talked, two lines of hot tears rolled down from her eyes, looking extremely sad. This was the moment when a woman's psychological defense line was most fragile. Zhao Desan seized this opportunity to insert himself. He looked very concerned and sat directly over. He didn't mind at all and placed his hand on Ma Li's shoulder, gently caressing and comforting her: "Sister Ma, don't cry. I understand what you said, and I can understand it. After all, a woman definitely hopes her husband can care about her. But Director Zheng is a big official after all. In our China, you say, which official is not busy? There are so many social engagements, and he sees many people outside. It goes without saying about women. It's not that I intentionally say Director Zheng is not good, but I think if a man has a little power in his hands, it would be strange if he is not flirtatious." Zhao Desan said this to comfort Ma Li, but he took the opportunity to say Zheng Tulu was worthless.

This made Ma Li not only not feel that Zheng Tulu's social engagements outside were for work, but increasingly felt that Zheng Tulu was debauched outside because he had power in his hands and had the capital to play with women. Thinking of the lipstick mark on his neck this morning made her even more disgusted with him. Her nose soured, and she felt extremely wronged. Her heart felt increasingly empty, as if she wanted a man to hold her and comfort her, listening to her pour out her heart. Zhao Desan gently wrapped his arm around her, and Ma Li's body softened, leaning against Zhao Desan's shoulder. This broad shoulder made Ma Li feel particularly warm and solid, and a sense of security arose from the bottom of her heart.

Seeing Ma Li didn't resist at all, Zhao Desan knew that her psychological defense line had already been abandoned when she made an appointment with him to come to the hotel. Since she could come, it meant she was already prepared to do that thing. It was just that seeing her tearful, emotional, and aggrieved appearance now, if he pushed her onto the bed directly, it would be too reckless. Matters between men and women require an atmosphere. Only in a state of mutual affection and interest can the best state be achieved. Like Ma Li, who was aggrieved now, if he insisted on his own way, he definitely couldn't enjoy the ultimate pleasure. As the saying goes, haste makes waste. Anyway, Ma Li was already a sheep in the tiger's mouth, so he would accompany her to play slowly, tease her interest, and then have a good time. ===== CHAPTER 1225 =====
