~7 min read 1,311 words

Need to find Zheng Ru to soothe her emotions as soon as possible, but not now, it's too late now. Zhao Desan looked at his watch, it was already around nine o'clock in the evening. Walking out of the quiet residential complex, he hailed a taxi and went straight home.

Just as Zhao Desan was about to arrive home, he received a call from Hu Tao. On the phone, Hu Tao said gratefully to Zhao Desan: "Little brother, thank you so much today. If you hadn't arrived in time, big brother really wouldn't have known how to deal with your sister-in-law. Thank you so much, little brother."

Damn! Damn it, this bastard was sold by me and still helped me count the money, idiot! After receiving Hu Tao's call and learning that he was calling to thank him for arriving in time to help him out of the siege this afternoon, Zhao Desan cursed with schadenfreude, and then asked with a playful remark: "Big brother, where are you now? Don't always let sister-in-law stay in an empty room alone at home, be careful of being cuckolded."

Hearing Zhao Desan's 'joke', Hu Tao laughed 'haha' and said: "Brother, look at what you're saying, your sister-in-law is different from Zheng Jie, she is not that kind of person."

Hu Tao's words were originally a joke, but Zhao Desan heard the subtext of this sentence as if it were alluding to Zheng Jie cuckolding him. However, Zhao Desan also slept with Hu Tao's wife, and his heart had balanced a lot at this time. Even if he understood the subtext of this sentence, he wasn't angry, but chuckled and said: "Big brother, that's not necessarily true, sister-in-law is also a woman. If you leave her alone at home every day, it's only a matter of time before you get cuckolded."

Hu Tao said confidently with a smile: "No, your sister-in-law won't." After saying this, he changed the topic and asked: "Little brother Liu, where are you now? Big brother wants to invite you to a meal to thank you for your help this afternoon."

While speaking, Zhao Desan had already gotten off the taxi, so he said: "Next time, wait until I help you solve Zheng Ru's matter, big brother, and then invite me together."

Hu Tao thought for a while and said with a chuckle: "That's fine, then big brother will wait for your good news."

Zhao Desan smiled gently and said: "I will help you handle it as soon as possible, big brother, and I will call you then."

"Then big brother will thank you verbally first, and then big brother will invite you to a good meal. Then little brother, I won't disturb you." Saying this, Hu Tao was about to hang up the phone.

Zhao Desan suddenly remembered one thing and quickly said to him: "Big brother, don't rush, don't rush, wait a moment."

Hu Tao took the phone off his ear, put it back, and asked suspiciously: "Little brother Liu, what's the matter?"

Zhao Desan hinted: "Big brother, remember the note I gave you at the coffee shop today."

Hu Tao was stunned for a moment, thought carefully, and suddenly realized, laughed and said: "Little brother, don't worry, I will arrange for the finance department to handle it tomorrow."

Zhao Desan chuckled and continued: "As long as you remember, big brother, then if there's nothing else, I'll hang up first."

After a few pleasantries, Zhao Desan hung up the phone, lit a cigarette, and walked toward the house where Su Qing lived in the residential complex with high spirits.

Hu Tao really did what he said and didn't let Zhao Desan down. After going to the company the next day, he took the note with Zhao Desan's bank card to the finance room and handed it to the cashier, asking her to transfer 500,000 yuan to this card number as soon as possible.

At a quarter past ten, Zhao Desan's phone rang on the table. It was a message ringtone, which interrupted the thoughts of Zhao Desan, who was thinking about problems. He straightened his body, reached out to take the phone from the table and looked at it. It was a message from the bank, reminding him that 500,000 yuan had been remitted to his account a minute ago.

Seeing this message, Zhao Desan knew what was going on. Looking at the Arabic numerals with a string of 0s in the phone message, he was so overjoyed that he almost jumped up. Unexpectedly, Hu Tao not only kept his word but also worked so efficiently.

"I want to have a home, a home with warmth..." Just as he was excited, the phone rang. The call was from Hu Tao. Zhao Desan answered the phone without hesitation and said with unbearable excitement: "Hello! Big brother, I received the money!"

Hu Tao heard Zhao Desan's excited voice, chuckled and said: "Little brother, did big brother keep his word?"

"Kept his word, kept his word, I didn't expect you to be a man who keeps his word, big brother!" Zhao Desan couldn't bear his excitement and started to flatter Hu Tao.

Hearing Zhao Desan's praise, Hu Tao felt very pleased. He chuckled and said: "Little brother, big brother has done what he promised you, now just wait for you to help big brother handle that matter."

Zhao Desan returned the favor and said: "Big brother, don't worry, I will find an opportunity to handle that matter for you as soon as possible..." Just as he was speaking, the door of Zhao Desan's office creaked and was pushed open from the outside. Immediately after, He Liping's figure appeared at the door. She had a charming smile on her face and asked him: "Comrade Comrade Xiao Zhao, are you busy?" while walking in gracefully.

Seeing He Liping come in, Zhao Desan immediately nodded at her with a smile, and lowered his voice to the phone: "Big brother, alright, I'm still a bit busy, I'll call you when I'm free." Saying this, without waiting for Hu Tao to reply, he hung up the phone directly, put down the phone, and quickly said to He Liping with a smile: "Sister He, your arrival is a great honor, I failed to welcome you from afar." Saying this, he stood up.

He Liping gently blinked those peach-blossom eyes with a charming look, and said in a gentle tone: "Comrade Comrade Xiao Zhao, who are you talking to on the phone again? Your business is very busy."

Zhao Desan smiled truthfully and said: "It's Boss Hu calling me, asking me to handle something." Saying this, he looked at He Liping with a strange look.

Seeing Zhao Desan's expression, He Liping understood that he might have seen her painstaking efforts, but this matter must not let others know that it was her deliberate arrangement, and certainly not let others know that she had drugged the wine. Hearing Zhao Desan say this, she chuckled, changed the topic directly, and found a topic to ask: "Comrade Comrade Xiao Zhao, is there any specific news about you going to work in the district?"

Zhao Desan understood that He Liping didn't want to get entangled in the matter of Zheng Ru and Hu Tao's drunken chaos. He smiled tacitly, then shook his head and said: "Not yet."

He Liping smiled charmingly, a look of reluctance in her eyes, looked at him and said gloomily: "To tell the truth, Comrade Comrade Xiao Zhao, once you leave, I don't know who else I can talk to in the unit."

Zhao Desan deliberately teased her and said playfully: "Isn't there your 'Old Zheng', Sister He?"

Seeing Zhao Desan actually teasing her, He Liping glared at him fiercely and said: "Comrade Comrade Xiao Zhao, you are getting bolder and bolder, aren't you? You dare to tease me?"
