When he was told that he didn't look like a man, he was anxious again. He raised his head and chest and said anxiously: "Zheng Ru, where do I not look like a man? I'm over 1.8 meters tall, what can I do that is not better than other men!"

Seeing that Zhao Desan looked so anxious to prove that he was a man, Zheng Ru, who was in a depressed mood, couldn't help but burst into a series of silver bell-like laughter. While laughing, she said: "I didn't say you weren't a man, I said you were long-winded and didn't look like a man."

When Zheng Ru laughed, two shallow dimples appeared on her cheeks, revealing two tiger teeth, red lips and white teeth, and her eyes narrowed into crescent moons, looking very cute. Zhao Desan liked to see her smile. Seeing her smile so brightly, he said with a mischievous grin: "Whether I look like a man or not, you'll know if you try."

"Rogue!" Seeing Zhao Desan's lecherous and indecent look, the smile on Zheng Ru's face immediately stopped, and she glared at him and scolded. In order not to let this guy keep entangled in these questions to tease her, Zheng Ru immediately changed the subject and asked him seriously: "Zhao Desan, have you been okay since I left the planning department these few days?"

"What's okay? As soon as you left, the workload increased suddenly. I'm busy to death all day long. I think you'd better return to the team!" Zhao Desan complained, wanting to see how much influence that thing on the Internet had on her.

Hearing Zhao Desan say this, Zheng Ru's expression changed subtly. From her sad eyes, one could see that there were many things in her heart. She blinked her eyes thoughtfully, sighed softly, and said: "I guess I'll be back in a few days."

Zhao Desan could hear that there was something in Zheng Ru's words, as if she knew that because of the Internet, her position as deputy director would not last long. But he deliberately played dumb, frowned slightly, and asked with a puzzled look: "What? You're doing well as a deputy director, why are you running back?"

"Zhao Desan, don't you know that my business has been posted on the Internet?" Zheng Ru asked with a disappointed and worried expression on her face, looking at her with a strange look.

"What? Posted on the Internet? When did this happen?" Zhao Desan continued to play dumb, looking very surprised, with his eyes wide open, looking stunned, as if he had heard about this for the first time. His expressions and actions were very in place, and it could be said to be vivid.

"A few days ago, it's now making a lot of noise on the Internet, and several newspapers have also published articles. In fact, you also know that I didn't want to, but my father insisted on me doing it, and I couldn't help it. If you hadn't insisted on quitting at that time, I would never have been the deputy director. Your ability is stronger than mine, and you know how to deal with people. I sincerely admire you, but I just don't understand why you quit voluntarily?" This question had troubled Zheng Ru for several days, but because she and Zhao Desan had confessed their feelings about the emotional problem before, the two had been in a cold war, not talking to each other like strangers. She was embarrassed to ask him. Today he sent her to the hospital and accompanied her to eat. These selfless actions made Zheng Ru feel very moved, and her resentment towards him disappeared, so she asked him this question that puzzled her very much.

"I'm just afraid that some colleagues in the unit will have prejudices. After all, I've only been in the unit for a year. If I were promoted to deputy director, many people would definitely have prejudices. I don't want to be pointed at behind my back and gossip. After thinking about it, I'd better quit. I'll work hard for two years and exercise well before talking." Zhao Desan said adaptably, while muttering in his heart: "Damn, if it wasn't for your father, that bastard Zheng Tulu, using such despicable means to threaten me to quit, would it be your turn?"

Zhao Desan's lie was seamless and easily fooled Zheng Ru. She nodded clearly and said with a bitter face: "You don't know how much trouble this has caused recently. Look, I haven't been to work in the unit for the past few days, just because I'm afraid that people will come to ask about this. I don't know how to deal with it."

"Then what are you going to do about this?" Zhao Desan asked.

Zheng Ru looked at him with deep thoughts and said: "What else can I do? Leave it to fate. My father was called over by the vice governor today. I don't know if it's because of this. Anyway, I guess I'll be stepping down before my seat is warm." Saying that, she gave a helpless bitter smile, and then asked Zhao Desan: "Is it very ridiculous?"

This matter had been developing according to Zhao Desan's predetermined plan. Seeing the current situation, Zhao Desan was naturally gloating, but he, the mastermind behind the scenes, must not be exposed. He shook his head solemnly and said: "It's not ridiculous at all." At the same time, he frowned slightly, looking very indignant, and said: "Who is so bored to post this on the Internet!"

Zheng Ru looked out the window, her eyes a little drifting, and said: "It must be someone from our unit, because outsiders couldn't have seen the public announcement. As for who it is, there are so many people in the unit, I don't know."

"Such a despicable and shameless villain should be smashed into ten thousand pieces once found out!" Zhao Desan said, stretching out his fist and making a crushing action, looking particularly indignant. This kind of lie made even he feel a little painful.

"Even if it's found out, what can be done? Everything in the post is true, and it can be considered as exposing the dark curtain of unfair and unjust personnel appointments in the unit. This matter has reached the provincial leaders. Even if we know who released it, what can be done to him?" Although Zheng Ru had been pampered since she was a child, under the upbringing of her mother Ma Lili, she was very kind at heart, not at all as ruthless as Zheng Tulu. She had no hatred for whoever posted her business on the Internet.

"Zheng Ru, you are really kind-hearted. Don't you resent the person who posted your business on the Internet at all?" Zhao Desan was really a little surprised. He didn't expect Zheng Ru to be so open-minded and kind-hearted, completely different from the girl who always looked at him coldly.

Zheng Ru felt very comfortable being told this, and a slightly relieved smile bloomed on her face, saying: "What's the use of resentment? Anyway, things are like this. Even you think you are not suitable to be a deputy director, then I am even less suitable. I was not qualified in the first place, and there is nothing to say about being posted on the Internet by others."

Zhao Desan nodded and said "Oh". Seeing the gauze on her head, he changed the subject and asked: "Does your head still hurt now?"

Zheng Ru nodded and said: "A little."

"After stitches, it will definitely hurt a little. Do you have to change the medicine tomorrow?" Zhao Desan asked with concern. I don't know why, but now he suddenly feels that Zheng Ru is actually a pretty good girl. Although she has been pampered since she was a child, she is very sensible and open-minded in many things, and her figure and appearance are quite good. His favor for her has increased a lot all of a sudden.

"Change it tomorrow." Zheng Ru nodded, looked at the watch on her wrist, and said: "It's almost time for work, you should go back to the unit quickly, don't delay your work."

Zhao Desan asked suspiciously: "Then what about you?"
