Chapter 196

"Zhao De, you're so lecherous!" Li Shanshan raised her eyebrows and rolled her eyes, "Why are you so lecherous?"

"I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare," Zhao De said, cupping his hands with a gleam in his eyes, asking her with a ghostly smile: "If you're free now, shall we... hehe... how about it?"

Li Shanshan genuinely wanted to date him, so she couldn't be as indulgent with him as before; at the very least, she had to restore an image of a pure maiden in his heart. So, she put on a straight face and refused: "Zhao De, don't treat me like that kind of girl! I'm not that casual!"

"Yo! Still putting on an act in front of me?" Zhao De didn't understand the situation, "Forget it, I'll go lock the door." Saying this, he got up to lock the door.

"Zhao De!" Li Shanshan roared with a glare, "I am not that kind of casual girl! Before, it was because you said you took photos and threatened me! Now that there are no photos, do you think I'll still listen to you? Don't be so vulgar!" After saying this, Li Shanshan got up in a huff and slammed the door as she left.

It seemed she was truly angry. This abnormal behavior left Zhao De a bit confused, and he found it somewhat unbelievable.

Zhao De felt inexplicably irritable and restless in the office. He simply got up and went to the warehouse for a walk, but Zhang Ai and Fatty were not there. He returned to the office with his head down, feeling gloomy, sat down to smoke, and waited for work to end. After work, he still had to wait for Bai Ling to come and give him Zhang Da's arrangements.

Bai Ling, this young married woman, was truly a rare gem in the world. In all the years Zhao De had lived, he had only felt this way about two people: one was Ma Lan, and the other was Bai Ling. Both were young married women a few years older than him; one was wealthy but her daughter had met with misfortune, and the other had a broken family and was still struggling to hold on.

It wasn't until 6:30, half an hour after work had ended, that Zhao De knew the people in the bureau had basically all left, so he went out of the office to find Bai Ling in the front courtyard.

It was nearly December, and at 6:30, the sky was already dark. The only two streetlights in the courtyard hadn't been turned on, and it seemed only the light in Vice Bureau Chief Wang's office was on in the office building. After walking around the front courtyard, Bai Ling hadn't come yet. Zhao De was a bit curious; Vice Bureau Chief Wang was always late and left early every day, so why was he planning to work through the night tonight?

So, driven by curiosity, he quietly slipped into the office building, walked on tiptoes to the outside of Vice Bureau Chief Wang's office door, and leaned against the door to listen carefully.

Whispering sounds came from inside; the voices were very soft and required careful listening to hear.

"Bai Ling, do you only start work every night after everyone else has left?" Vice Bureau Chief Wang Anguo's voice came from inside.

So Bai Bai Bai Jie had been called to the office by Wang Anguo; no wonder he hadn't seen her come to sweep the floor tonight! Zhao De realized immediately that Wang Anguo was up to no good again and must be wanting to take advantage of her.

"Yes," Bai Ling replied with her head lowered, "Vice Bureau Chief Wang, do you have something for me to do in your office?"

"Hehe, nothing, nothing... By the way, you're a permanent employee, right?"

"No... a temporary worker... doing cleaning, how could I be a permanent employee? I'm making you laugh, leader."

"No... are you cold in what you're wearing?" Wang Anguo's hand rested on her fragrant shoulder with ill intent, pretending to be concerned.

"Not cold."

"Oh... Bai Ling, do you want to become a permanent employee?"

"Hehe, Vice Bureau Chief Wang, you're joking. This isn't something that can be changed just because one wants to. I'm very satisfied just being able to keep this temporary job."

"I can actually help you a little, but..." Wang Anguo began to play hard to get, acting mysterious.

"Vice Bureau Chief Wang, but what?" Bai Ling cared very much about this job; she dreamed of becoming a permanent employee.

"Hehe... Bai Ling, look..."

"Vice Bureau Chief Wang... don't... don't..."

"I won't spell it out... you understand, right... as long as you agree, I can help you become a permanent employee."

Vice Bureau Chief Wang's hand had already slid down from Bai Ling's fragrant shoulder and was about to reach her towering, protruding breasts. Bai Ling took a step back, having understood what Wang Anguo meant, and said with her head bowed: "Vice Bureau Chief Wang, I... I won't become a permanent employee. My job is fine as it is."

"Aren't you afraid of suddenly becoming unemployed? Hmm? Hehe." Wang Anguo took another step forward, suddenly pulling her into his arms, and his thick lips began to nuzzle her exquisite face.

Bai Ling was panicked and pale, pushing his head and calling out: "Vice Bureau Chief Wang, don't... don't..."

"Knock, knock, knock," Zhao De knocked on the door urgently. To save Bai Ling, he had thrown caution to the wind.

"Who is it!" Wang Anguo stopped and shouted.

"Knock, knock, knock..." Zhao De knocked on the door again.

Wang Anguo opened the door aggressively. Seeing it was Zhao De, he frowned and questioned him: "Comrade Xiao Zhao, what are you knocking for? What's the matter so late?"

"Oh, Bai Bai Bai Jie is here too. I was just looking for Bai Bai Bai Jie; so she's in your office, Vice Bureau Chief Wang." Zhao De said with a fawning smile.

"I... I'll go sweep the floor right now!" Bai Ling wiped her hair and, with a flushed face, tried to go around Wang Anguo to leave. Wang Anguo suddenly smiled kindly: "Bai Ling, wait a moment. I haven't finished giving you instructions yet."

"Vice Bureau Chief Wang, it's already seven o'clock. Are you still working? Take care of your health, don't tire yourself out." Zhao De feigned concern, but his words had a hidden meaning.

Wang Anguo found these words quite awkward; they were truly pointed. "Comrade Xiao Zhao, you go home first! I'm discussing something with Bai Ling!" He still wouldn't give up, wanting to dominate Bai Ling, this stunning beauty.

"But Vice Bureau Chief Wang, Bai Bai Bai Jie has to sweep the courtyard. If the courtyard isn't swept clean, Section Chief Zhang will criticize me again tomorrow, saying I'm not attentive to my work. Look at this..."

Wang Anguo couldn't wait to have this rare young married woman and felt that Zhao De was intentionally ruining his good deed. So, he shouted at him angrily: "Comrade Xiao Zhao! Stop dawdling! Less nonsense! Get out! I'm busy right now!" Saying this, he was about to close the door.

Zhao De pushed the door with one hand and said bluntly: "So, leader, you're not supporting my work?"

"Is it me or you who calls the shots at the Coal Bureau?" Wang Anguo asked, lifting his chin, "Do you not want to work at the Coal Bureau anymore?"

Zhao De was unhurried, staring calmly at Wang Anguo's fat face, then sneered and said: "Leader, this seems to be a violation of rules and discipline."

"What violation of rules, what discipline? You little brat! Are you trying to go against me? I see you don't want to stay here anymore! Do you believe I'll get rid of you, you stinking brat, tomorrow?"

"Hmph..." A sneer squeezed out of the corner of Zhao De's mouth, and he said bluntly, "Leader, if you get rid of me just like that, aren't you afraid I'll spill all your good deeds?"

"You dare!" Wang Anguo widened his triangular eyes and threatened him.
