Chapter 2022: Turning against someone and not recognizing them

"You are the kind of person who pulls up his pants and turns against someone without recognizing them!" Li Fang delivered an opening line with great lethality, which made Zhao Desan's heart skip a beat. Knowing Lan Mei was present, he was afraid of causing her suspicion. So, before Lan Mei could suspect anything, Zhao Desan hurriedly changed the subject and said to her, "I am currently discussing work with our Section Chief Lan. Do you know that your making such a scene affects our work! Sister Li, you are going too far!" Zhao Desan wanted to suppress this fearless place from the momentum first. As he spoke, Zhao Desan glanced at Lan Mei, who was standing aside at a loss, with the corner of his eye. Seeing that she was almost stupid and indifferent, he coughed twice. Lan Mei then came back to her senses and hurriedly walked out quickly from beside Li Fang with her head down.

"Yo, so it's Section Chief Lan closing the door and discussing work in the office! I'm afraid it's not as simple as discussing work!" Li Fang's eyes were fixed on Lan Mei, and her words were extremely mean and harsh.

Zhao Desan was stunned by this young woman, pursed his lips, tried hard to calm his anger, and said to Li Fang, "Sister Li, since I opened the door to welcome you in, let's talk about business. Don't keep talking about this bullshit!" Because he was angered by Li Fang, Zhao Desan's words also contained some uncivilized language.

"Good, then I won't talk about this bullshit with you! Let's talk about business!" Li Fang repeated Zhao Desan's uncivilized language without showing weakness, and sat down on the sofa uninvited.

"Sister Li, it seems you have a lot of anger today? Who made you angry? I'll vent your anger for you!" Zhao Desan saw Li Fang's gloomy face and unwilling look, so he sat down beside her with a smile and asked with feigned concern.

"Comrade Xiao Zhao, I, Li Fang, thought you were a man. Why don't you keep your word?" Li Fang raised her eyebrows, stiffened her oval face, and glared at Zhao Desan with her big eyes, feeling very angry that he didn't handle her affairs on time.

"Sister Li, when have I, Zhao Desan, ever broken my promise?" Zhao Desan asked back.

"Who said they would give me an answer within three days? Today is already the third day. Not only did you not give me an answer, but when I just called, you didn't answer. I think you want to turn against me and not recognize the account, right?" Lan Mei asked back with reason.

Hearing Li Fang say this, Zhao Desan laughed twice and said unhurriedly, "Yes, that's right. I said I would give Sister Li an answer within three days. Indeed, today is the third day, but this third day hasn't ended yet. How can you say I didn't keep my word? Only if I haven't given an answer after work can it be considered that I, Zhao Desan, broke my promise!" Zhao Desan played a word game with Li Fang.

Li Fang was speechless for a moment by Zhao Desan's word game. She widened her eyes, pursed her lips, and said to him, "Good, then I will sit here and wait for you to get off work. You must give me an answer before you get off work!"

Seeing Li Fang's posture, Zhao Desan really intended to fight a protracted war and sit in his office waiting for him to get off work. So he hurriedly said with a smile, "Sister Li, do you really intend to sit here and wait for me to get off work?"

Seeing Zhao Desan soften, Li Fang sneered twice and threatened, "Deputy Section Chief Liu, don't forget, you wrote me an IOU in black and white. If you don't resolve this problem for me today, I will only recognize you and come to you for this money!"

Seeing that Li Fang only recognized him, Zhao Desan said with a wry smile, "Sister Li, that was also under the instruction of our leader. It was just a temporary method I thought of to send you away and delay time. Are you really going to ask me for this money? I'm an office worker, where would I have so much money? In other words, even if I had it, it was money I saved up through hard work. Why should I give it to you for no reason? I'm not afraid of offending the leader today. Sister Li, I'll tell you the truth. From beginning to end, I was dealing with you under the instruction of our Director Zheng." Zhao Desan's purpose in saying these words was to transform the conflict between himself and Li Fang into a conflict between Zheng Tulu and Li Fang.

Zhao Desan said so much, thinking that Li Fang would listen to a word or two. Who knew that Li Fang not only didn't listen to a word, but became even more impatient, stiffened her face, and said to him, "Stop fooling me! You wrote the IOU. Resolve it within three days. If you can't resolve it within three days, you pay for our hard-earned money out of your own pocket. These words were also said by you, Zhao Desan. I only recognize you, and I don't recognize anyone else! Stop talking nonsense. Just tell me whether you can resolve this matter for me today!"

Damn it! I've met a difficult person! Looking at Li Fang's unwilling look, Zhao Desan cursed inwardly, took a deep breath, lit a cigarette, took a puff, looked at Li Fang's calm look, and said, "Sister Li, do you really want to put me to death? I, Comrade Xiao Zhao, don't think I've offended you anywhere, right? Others simply didn't want to take over your matter, but I took it over. Your brothers injured our unit's security guards and were arrested by the police station. Originally, they were to be criminally detained, but it wasn't because of a word from you, Sister Li, that I let Director Xu go through the back door and release them."

Zhao Desan said so much, having already said all the factors he could think of that would make Li Fang consider it. After speaking, he took a hard puff of his cigarette, squinted his eyes, and stared at Li Fang without blinking, hoping that this young woman with male chauvinism would be moved.

Seeing Li Fang listen to Zhao Desan's excuses, she first stared at Zhao Desan with her big eyes without turning, as if she was really touched by Zhao Desan's words. Just when Zhao Desan felt that Li Fang should consider it, who knew that she simply ignored Zhao Desan's excuses and said to him, "Stop talking nonsense. I want to get the money today. If you, Deputy Section Chief Liu, can't make your Construction Committee resolve this matter today, then you must pay this money! This is the hard-earned money of my brothers. We don't have time to keep consuming with you!"

Seeing Li Fang's attitude was not to give an inch, Zhao Desan had said all the good things. He shouldn't have taken this matter in the first place. It was all because he was fooled by Zheng Tulu's flowery words that he agreed to be responsible for handling this matter. Now that it couldn't be handled, he couldn't just get himself involved, right? So, Zhao Desan took a hard puff of his cigarette, got up, and turned against her, saying helplessly with his back to Li Fang, "Sister Li, since you are forcing me to death today, don't blame me for turning against you. I won't care about this matter anymore. Sister Li, do whatever you want!" Zhao Desan was really forced to have no way out by Li Fang and started to play the rogue.

Li Fang had long known that Zhao Desan would play the rogue if he was forced. Seeing Zhao Desan play the rogue, she not only didn't feel nervous, but sneered twice and said to Zhao Desan unhurriedly, "Deputy Section Chief Liu, it seems you want to play the rogue and don't want to recognize the account, right? The IOU you wrote is clear in black and white. You can't deny it!" As she spoke, Li Fang took the note out of her bag and patted it on the coffee table.

Zhao Desan certainly knew he had written an IOU, but now that it was like this, he couldn't care so much. He simply turned around, glanced at the note, put on a look of a dead pig not afraid of boiling water, and said to Li Fang, who had a treacherous look, without any panic, "Even if I wrote it, it's not that I owe you money. Do whatever you want! Go find whoever you want, I can't care!"

"You... you really want to deny the account, right?" Li Fang saw Zhao Desan's look of a dead pig not afraid of boiling water and felt a bit anxious.

"Sister Li, don't say it so ugly. I didn't owe you anything, how can you say I deny the account?" Zhao Desan found that Li Fang's momentum had been suppressed by his helpless look, so he became more free and easy, sneered at her and said.

"Zhao Desan! Don't think I, Li Fang, am a woman and easy to bully. I tell you, if I, the old lady, don't resolve this matter today, I won't be surnamed Li!" Li Fang seemed to be really unable to do anything about Zhao Desan's rogue look, said angrily, then glared at Zhao Desan fiercely, took out her phone, and dialed a number. As soon as she dialed, she hung up again.

Zhao Desan saw Li Fang's action and thought, "Scaring me! I wasn't scared to grow up. Damn it! Do whatever you want." He walked to his seat, sat down, lit a cigarette, and ignored Li Fang.

At this moment, Zheng Tulu and He Liping were having a conflict in the office. He Liping complained that he cared less and less about her, while Zheng Tulu was finding excuses to coax her. Just as the old guy gently hugged He Liping's fragrant shoulders, while sweet-talking He Liping that he and Zhang Hui had nothing, that she was Lin Dafa's daughter-in-law, and that he had received her for so long because of Lin Dafa's face, and just as he was about to lower his head to give He Liping a kiss, the office door was suddenly pushed open, accompanied by an anxious shout: "It's bad, it's bad, Director Zheng, it's bad..."

Just as Zheng Tulu was about to curse at the person who broke in without knocking, he saw that the person who pushed the door open was Han Rui. She stood at the door with an anxious face, looking dumbfounded at Zheng Tulu's hand on He Liping's shoulder and one hand on her wasp waist. That was a particularly intimate action that normal men and women couldn't make.

Seeing Han Rui's astonished look, He Liping immediately

stepped on Zheng Tulu's leather shoes quietly. The old guy realized his action was inappropriate, so he hurriedly took his hand off He Liping, stiffened his face, looked a bit embarrassed, and asked Han Rui with a stern tone, "Xiao Han, what are you panicking about! You didn't even knock when you came in!"

"Director, Deputy Director He, it's bad, something happened, something big happened..." Han Rui then came back to her senses and returned to that panicked look. Perhaps because she was too nervous, she couldn't say a complete sentence for a long time.

"What's the matter? Don't be anxious, tell me slowly!" Zheng Tulu saw Han Rui's panicked and uneasy look, so he stabilized her emotions and said.

"A group of people came to the unit, it was the migrant workers who came to make trouble last time... A group of people rushed directly into Deputy Section Chief Liu's office. Director, Deputy Director He, you should go down and see quickly?" Han Rui said, stuttering, with worry for Zhao Desan.
