Chapter 1686: Not Giving Up

"Do you mean you want sister-in-law to divorce him?" Zheng Jie asked sensitively.

"Oh, no, no, I didn't mean that." Zhao Desan said hurriedly.

"Then what do you mean?" Zheng Jie asked in confusion, but after thinking about it, she added: "But sister-in-law doesn't mean to rely on you either."

Zhao Desan laughed: "Sister-in-law, you are just too sensitive. If a woman as good as you relied on me, that would be really nice. That is exactly what I want. But what Zhao Da needs most now is psychological care, so, I think..." Zhao Desan said this, looked at Zheng Jie, and seeing her blinking and looking at him intently, he continued: "Since he has this bad habit, it is really inconvenient to mix it with our business. For his sake, and for you and the child, and of course for my own sake, I think it is time to find a new safe haven for you and the child."

"You mean for Nini and me to move out?" Zheng Jie asked suspiciously.

"Specifically, you move out to do business, for the sake of you mother and daughter, and for the sake of this family." Zhao Desan said decisively.

"Then what about Zhao Da? Who will take care of him?" Zheng Jie's question made Zhao Desan feel a moment of helplessness. Although he was also thinking for Zhao Da, hearing Zheng Jie's heart, he still felt very uncomfortable.

"Let Shuanzhu take care of his daily life, and you can come back to see him often. It's not like I'm sending you to prison." Zhao Desan tried to use a relaxed tone.

"Hmph, I'm afraid you'd be happy to send me to prison!" It could be seen that Zheng Jie was very willing to accept Zhao Desan's idea.

Zhao Desan understood in his heart that due to his status, he often couldn't care for Zheng Jie, and she must have some complaints in her heart, so he didn't mind her complaints and continued: "Then let's start looking for a house now. Once we find one, we will move in immediately. As for the work on Zhao Da's side, you should be the one to do it, sister-in-law."

"Zhao Da's side is not a problem. After losing money in the last gamble, he made our relationship clear to me. So, if moving out is for the sake of business, he won't have any objections. Besides, there is Shuanzhu to take care of him." Zheng Jie said with some embarrassment.

"Oh, right, Shuanzhu happens to have a place to live and something to do. He can take care of Brother Zhao while helping you with business, sister-in-law. This can be called killing two birds with one stone!" Zhao Desan specifically described Shuanzhu's matter again, fearing Zheng Jie would misunderstand that Shuanzhu was only taking care of Zhao Da.

"That's for sure, otherwise, with an extra mouth to feed, how could I support him!" Zheng Jie finally had a smile.

"Good, then it's settled. I'll go back and look for housing sources now." Zhao Desan said excitedly.

"But, but looking for a house also requires money. I, I don't even have the money for goods on hand now..." Zheng Jie's smile, which had just unfolded, retracted again.

Zhao Desan was also stunned by Zheng Jie's words. He was busy stating his ideas but ignored that there was no operating capital now. What should he do? Seeing that the company had just started operating and was about to be shelved due to a shortage of operating funds, Zhao Desan was unwilling, so he said: "Don't worry about this, I have my own ways to solve it." In fact, he had no bottom line in his heart.

"Alright then, I will listen to everything you say." Zheng Jie also wanted to get out of the current environment. Even if she didn't think for herself, she wanted to think for Nini. Now that Shuanzhu was at home, some things were very inconvenient.

After parting with Zheng Jie, Zhao Desan felt both excited and frustrated. Excited that Zheng Jie readily agreed to his idea, frustrated that the money he had worked so hard to get, and which he was counting on to make his official career smoother, had been turned into nothing by Zhao Da at the mahjong table. This really made him laugh and cry.

Zhao Desan returned to his office, pushed open the office door listlessly, looked up, and saw someone sitting inside, which gave him a fright. Looking carefully, it was none other than Xia Jian, sitting grandly at his desk.

"Why are you here?" Zhao Desan actually guessed 80-90% of it in his heart, but still couldn't help asking.

"I'm here waiting for you!" Xia Jian's face was extremely ugly, and then he said sarcastically: "Liu, I, Xia Jian, don't think I've done anything to wrong you during this period, and yesterday I specifically invited you to my home, yet you stabbed me in the back. Are... are you still a man, damn it?" Although Xia Jian was angry, he still lacked confidence when cursing Zhao Desan.

"Whether I am a man or not is none of your business!" Zhao Desan was completely enraged by Xia Jian's opening remarks, and he retorted without any mercy: "Damn you!"

Xia Jian didn't expect Zhao Desan to be so fierce. He had originally imagined that Zhao Desan, having done something guilty to him, would definitely be shocked by him. He didn't expect Zhao Desan to be even fiercer than him. Coupled with the fact that Zhao Desan had caught his affair with the female boss of the office supplies in the warehouse, Xia Jian felt fear in his heart and was stunned on the spot for a moment, mouth agape, unable to speak.

"Get up! Is that where you sit?" Zhao Desan didn't give Xia Jian any face at all, speaking in a stiff tone.

Xia Jian looked at Zhao Desan's indifferent appearance, and the fire that was originally eight feet high in his heart turned into a weak spark of fire at some point. Under Zhao Desan's roar, he stood up instinctively, shouting: "Get up is get up, why are you being so fierce!"

Zhao Desan sat in his chair without any courtesy, then pointed to the chair opposite and said: "That place is your position, this is my office. If you want to find me, learn some rules!"

Xia Jian obediently sat in the chair opposite Zhao Desan, wanting to speak with a face full of grievances, but was stopped by Zhao Desan: "You are too unreasonable. Even if your relationship with the director is good, the procedures that must be followed must be followed. The reason I went to your house yesterday was also on behalf of the director, do you know? That was your last chance!" Zhao Desan was not a fool. After receiving He Lili's guidance and reminder, he noticed this problem. The old Eunuch seemed to be a bit cunning, wanting to hand over this power that offended people to him, letting him play with fire and offend people. It was also time for him to light a fire on him.

"Wh, what last chance?" Xia Jian was confused by Zhao Desan, not knowing what Zhao Desan meant.

"You are truly smart for a lifetime, confused for a moment. Even for Zheng Jie's matter, I won't argue with you, but after all, the director's side needs to be accommodated!" Zhao Desan's words were neither hard nor soft, reminding Xia Jian of the debt he owed him and transferring the responsibility to Zheng Tulu. He knew that for a small person like Xia Jian who bullied the weak and feared the strong, he wouldn't dare to confront Zheng Tulu in person even if he were beaten to death.

Xia Jian's face turned red instantly, and he asked stutteringly: "Do you mean I didn't show something to Director Zheng?" He deliberately pretended not to hear Zhao Desan talking about Zheng Jie.

"Hehe, I didn't say anything. This matter cannot be talked about randomly, figure it out yourself!" Zhao Desan flatly denied Xia Jian's inquiry.

"Sigh, I originally thought Director Zheng had done that with your sister-in-law..." Saying this, Xia Jian suddenly stopped, immediately realizing he had spoken out of turn, and hurriedly covered up: "I mean, I and your sister-in-law have invited the director to dinner before, so there should be no problem at all, but I didn't expect..." Saying this, Xia Jian suddenly choked up.

Seeing Xia Jian like that, Zhao Desan really wanted to slap him, but he held back his outburst and said in an official tone: "Then don't blame Director Zheng. I think you should wait for the next opportunity!" ===== CHAPTER 1687 =====
