Chapter 2073: Why did the call take so long?

Wu Min gave him a strange look. Her eyes rolled slightly, and a frivolous smile hung on the corner of her mouth. She asked, "Why did that call take so long?"

"Just finished. Then Sister Wu, you go to the bathroom, I'll go back first." Fearing that Wu Min would ask endlessly, Zhao Desan said and walked toward his seat in a dejected manner.

After sitting down, taking advantage of Wu Min's gap in going to the bathroom, Zhao Desan took out his phone again. He almost stuck his eyes to the phone, but he still couldn't distinguish who the man holding Li Fang's waist was from the multimedia message. However, he was convinced that if Li Fang's wage-chasing incident was premeditated and planned, this man must be related to this matter.

For a time, a series of question marks hung in Zhao Desan's head. With a head full of mysteries, he waited for Wu Min to come over from the bathroom. He looked at the leftovers on the table, and the two bottles of beer were also bottomed out. Because he had something on his mind, Zhao Desan had no interest in staying with this prey he had planned to hunt. So, after Wu Min sat down, Zhao Desan proposed, "Sister Wu, look, we've eaten almost enough, and it's getting late. How about we go?"

Wu Min seemed to see that Zhao Desan had something on his mind. She smiled faintly, nodded, and said, "That's fine. I've delayed your afternoon today, go back and rest early." Saying this, Wu Min turned her head and called the waiter to pay the bill.

Seeing the waiter walk over with the bill, Zhao Desan quickly stuffed his hand into his pants pocket, pretending to take out money, but he didn't take out his wallet for a long time. Although the meal fee of more than 200 yuan wasn't much, because he had given Li Fang more than 400,000 as hush money, Zhao Desan had been short of money these past two days. Coupled with the fact that he had hustled so much money from Zheng Jie at once, he really didn't have the face to hustle again. There was only 100 or 120 yuan in his wallet.

Just as he reached his hand into his pants pocket and watched Li Fang take out her wallet and pull out 300 yuan to hand to the waiter, Zhao Desan pretended to be very eager and snatched it, saying, "Sister Wu, I'll do it, I'll do it. How can I let you pay? I'll do it, I'll do it." Although Zhao Desan pretended to be decent, he was praying in his heart, "Sister Wu, don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously..."

But sometimes some things are just like this; the things you don't want to happen are the ones that will happen. Unexpectedly, Wu Min saw Zhao Desan snatching to pay the bill. She hesitated with the 300 yuan she had just pulled out of her wallet and smiled at Zhao Desan, "That's fine, I'll give you face. You treat today, and Sister Wu will treat you next time."

Mom! What should I do? Isn't this making me lose face? Seeing Wu Min put the money she had taken out back into her wallet, Zhao Desan, who had been pretending to be decent and snatching to pay the bill, suddenly withered like an eggplant beaten by frost. His eyebrows first frowned, then he opened his mouth slightly, wanting to speak but stopping. His expression looked extremely awkward, and his facial expressions were very rich. The hand reaching into his pants pocket rubbed for a long time, but he was truly short of money. Seeing Wu Min looking at him and the waiter standing aside with the bill waiting for him to pay, Zhao Desan smiled awkwardly. He really had no choice, so he bit the bullet and said to Wu Min, "Sister Wu, how about... you pay today? I... I forgot to withdraw money."

The waiter followed up, "It doesn't matter, sir, we can swipe cards here."

Damn! That's not giving me face! Zhao Desan cursed the ignorant waiter in his heart. In order not to lose his dignity as a man in front of the waiter, he finally bit the bullet and exerted the benefits of a little man, winking and hinting at Wu Min to pay the bill quickly.

Wu Min finally understood that Zhao Desan was short of money. She pouted playfully, rolled her eyes at him, called the waiter to her, paid the bill, and then got up and walked out in a bad mood.

Seeing that Wu Min was a bit angry, Zhao Desan quickly followed and said with a cheeky grin, "Good sister, don't be angry. I didn't know I didn't bring enough money."

It was the first time Wu Min had contact with a little man like Zhao Desan who knew how to act spoiled. She was truly amused and angry by him. She rolled her eyes at him and said, "If you don't have money, just say so. Why pretend!"

"I just felt that it was the first time I was eating alone with you, Sister Wu, and it was a bit embarrassing to let you pay." Zhao Desan winked and said.

"Fortunately, it's with me. If you find a partner one day and eat with someone like this, it would be strange if they would pay attention to you next time!" Wu Min's words were true.

Zhao Desan was speechless and just laughed.

After following Wu Min out of the restaurant, Zhao Desan sent Wu Min to the car. She saw Zhao Desan standing by the car without any reaction, so she urged, "What are you still standing there for? Get in the car!"

Ah? She wouldn't want to go to a hotel with me, would she? Seeing Wu Min let him get in the car, Zhao Desan had some wild thoughts again, and then happily opened the car door and sat in.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he got in the car, Wu Min said, "Where do you live? I'll send you back first?"

"Sister Wu, no... are we not going anywhere else?" Hearing Wu Min say this, Zhao Desan asked with some disappointment.

"Where to? Where do you want to go?" Wu Min looked at Zhao Desan with a strange look and asked.

Zhao Desan understood that impatience couldn't eat hot tofu. Knowing that Wu Min didn't mean that, he just felt a bit disappointed, but quickly cheered up and said with a smile, "Nowhere. Then I'll take a free ride from Sister Wu..."

After telling her the address, Wu Min drove him to the place and then drove away.

It was so late, and Su Qing didn't even call to ask about him. After returning home, Zhao Desan found that Su Qing hadn't come home yet. He knew she was either socializing or working overtime at the provincial committee. Since she held two jobs, Su Qing rarely could go home as early as before. Usually, Zhao Desan would be asleep before she could come back.

He didn't wait for Su Qing. After taking a shower, he went to bed early. His head thought of Li Fang's wage-chasing incident again. He turned over, reached out to take the phone from the bedside table, and opened the multimedia message sent by Han Wu to look at it again. But no matter how carefully he tried to identify it, because the pixel was too low, he still couldn't identify who the man who was intimate with Li Fang was.

He finally couldn't help but call Li Fang to ask her who this man was and what kind of secret was hidden behind this matter. The ringtone on the phone rang twice before Li Fang's phone was connected. The moment the phone was connected, Zhao Desan suddenly heard a man's heavy "Ah" sound from the phone, followed by Li Fang's slightly panicked voice: "Hello! Deputy Division Chief Liu, is there... anything wrong with calling me so late?"

Hearing the abnormal sound on the phone, although it was only for a moment, Zhao Desan immediately realized that Li Fang was definitely not alone. If he questioned her directly about this problem, not only would he not get any useful information, but he would also startle the snake. So, Zhao Desan deliberately smiled and said, "Nothing much, just that I haven't seen Sister Li for two days, and I miss you a bit, Sister Li."

"You... miss me? Uh..." After Li Fang's skeptical counter-question, she suddenly made a sound that only a woman would make when doing that kind of thing.

For this sound, Zhao Desan, who had experienced countless women, was naturally particularly sensitive. As soon as he heard it, he could distinguish that this was the intoxicated moan Li Fang made when she was "attacked." Zhao Desan's heart first tightened, then he forced himself to be calm and laughed, "Of course I miss you. I, Zhao Desan, am at least a man who dares to act and take responsibility. As the saying goes, 'A hundred days of grace for a couple for one night.' Although we two are not a couple, we at least had a one-night stand. You tell me, how can I not miss you, Sister Li?"

"Xiao... Comrade Xiao Zhao, if there's nothing, let's talk later. I... I've already slept, don't... don't talk..." On the phone, Li Fang's voice was intermittent, trying hard to pretend to be tired, but the slightly panting breath couldn't be disguised.

How could this panting sound deceive Zhao Desan, who was particularly familiar with women's reactions in bed? He deliberately said unhurriedly, "Sister Li, Comrade Xiao Zhao misses you too much now. The night is long, what should I do if you sleep?"

"Tomorrow... let's talk tomorrow. I'm so tired... uh... I'm going to sleep..." On the phone, Li Fang finished panting "en en ah ah" and hung up the phone.

Hearing the "en en ah ah" slightly panting sound of Li Fang on the phone, Zhao Desan was 100% convinced that she was currently having fun in bed with a man. Listening to the "beep beep beep..." hanging up sound from the phone, Zhao Desan cursed Li Fang hatefully in his heart.

&nb

Zhao Desan's guess was absolutely correct. Sure enough, at this moment, Li Fang was on the bed in the apartment that Hu Tao had paid to rent for her in that residential complex. She was wearing the erotic lingerie that Hu Tao had specially ordered for her online—a red mesh top and black crotchless pantyhose. She was lying on the bed with her snow-white, plump, perky buttocks raised, her delicate brows tightly furrowed, and her lower lip bitten hard, wearing an expression that was hard to tell if it was pain or ecstasy. Meanwhile, Hu Tao was kneeling behind her, his hands holding onto Li Fang's slender waist, thrusting his hips in and out. Under the force of his movements, Li Fang's body swayed back and forth while she let out impassioned moans of "mm-hmm, ah-ah..."
