Chapter 2853

The two of them ate and drank, chatting from around two o'clock until past five. They drank four bottles of white liquor. By the time the fifth bottle was opened and a third of it was consumed, Xu Min was finally drunk, lying on the table and talking nonsense. Zhao De was also a bit dizzy from drinking today, but his tolerance was high; he was just a bit dizzy, but his head was very clear.

Seeing that Xu Min was lying on the table, dead drunk and unconscious, Zhao De paid the bill, supported the limp Xu Min, and walked out of the restaurant unsteadily. He stuffed him into the car, lit a cigarette, took a deep drag to keep his mind clear, and drove Xu Min home.

Twenty minutes later, arriving at the residential complex where Xu Min lived, Zhao De helped Xu Min out of the car, spent a lot of effort to help him to Xu Min's door, and rang the doorbell.

Soon, the door inside the security gate opened a crack, and a mature woman who looked to be in her thirties appeared. She was wearing a loose, cream-colored thin sweater on her upper body, a black pleated skirt on her lower body, and flesh-colored silk stockings on her legs. She was 1.65 meters tall. Although her appearance was average, her skin was very fair, and her figure was good. Coupled with her fashionable dress, she had a unique charm and could be considered a charming young married woman.

The two looked at each other. Seeing Zhao De supporting the dead-drunk Xu Min, the young woman didn't say a word, opened the security door, and helped the drunk Xu Min into the house together with Zhao De from the other side.

Zhao De took the initiative to break the silence and said, "Sister-in-law, where should I put Brother Xu?"

"Since he's drunk like this, just put him on the bed." The young woman answered Zhao De's question and glanced at Zhao De from the side.

It was just a casual glance, but it made Zhao De feel the young woman's unique charm. Although her appearance was only average—among the women he knew, she could be said to be the most inconspicuous one—the young woman's eyes had a bewitching charm. Just that casual glance at Zhao De made him feel restless.

With his heart pounding, he helped Xu Min carefully into the bedroom and placed him on the bed with the young woman. Then, the two retreated from the bedroom one after the other.

The young woman said, "Little brother, thank you."

Zhao De was surprisingly a bit embarrassed and said, "You're welcome."

The young woman wrinkled her tall, sexy nose, smelled that Zhao De was also full of the smell of alcohol, and said, "Little brother, you've also drunk quite a bit, haven't you?"

"Drank a little." Zhao De said noncommittally.

The young woman said with concern, "Then sit down, I'll pour you a glass of water." As she spoke, she turned and walked toward the kitchen without further ado.

Seeing the young woman's curvy back, especially her round and plump buttocks wrapped in jeans, which were pulled tight without a single wrinkle, there was a visual sensation that was about to burst out, which was extremely alluring. It wasn't until Xu Min's wife walked into the kitchen that Zhao De came to the sofa and sat down, his mind wandering. He didn't quite understand why men were so fickle. Although Xu Min's wife had an average appearance, overall, she was also a soul-stirring woman, yet Xu Min still looked for a mistress outside.

Just as Zhao De was letting his imagination run wild, a gentle voice entered his eardrums: "Little brother, drink some water."

Zhao De suddenly came to his senses, looked up, and saw a pair of fair, slender, beautiful hands holding a glass of water in front of him.

Zhao De hurriedly took the glass and thanked Xu Min's wife: "Thank you, sister-in-law."

Xu Min's wife sat down on the sofa opposite Zhao De and smiled: "You're welcome..."

For some reason, Zhao De, who had always been lively in front of women, was suddenly at a loss at this moment. Holding the glass with both hands, he didn't know what to say, so he raised the glass to drink water to cover up his nervousness.

After taking a small sip of water, Zhao De tasted it and suddenly felt that the water was very sweet. He found a topic to break the silence and asked the young woman with a smile: "Sister-in-law, what kind of water is this? Why is it so sweet?"

The young woman smiled slightly and said, "Honey water, it will help with the hangover."

Zhao De nodded and thought to himself: This young woman is actually quite good at caring for people.

The young woman asked him, "Little brother, were you and Xu Min colleagues before? After he was removed from his post, no one associated with him anymore. Now, only you are still in contact with him."

Zhao De naturally understood the principle that when people leave, the tea goes cold, especially for a man like Xu Min who didn't have a high status to begin with. Once he had no utility value, who would look for him? Zhao De chuckled, shook his head, and said, "No, Brother Xu and I are just good friends."

The young woman understood and said "Oh," then asked, "Then, little brother, where do you work?"

Zhao De replied, "At the District Construction Committee. Sister-in-law, you can just call me Comrade Xiao Zhao."

The young woman nodded with a smile.

Looking at the young woman from a close distance, Zhao De realized that this woman's skin was really too fair and tender, as fine and fair as milk, and very shiny, looking quite elastic. From her fair and tender skin, he couldn't help but associate it with the fairest and tenderest part of a woman's body. He couldn't help but glance at the young woman's chest. Although it wasn't particularly obvious under the loose thin sweater, based on Zhao De's judgment of her figure and build, he felt that her chest must also be very large and definitely had substance. Thinking of the large, fair, and tender beauty, Zhao De couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, thinking that if the milk-white, fair, and tender beauty could be touched by him, how wonderful it would be! The unique temperament of a mature married woman and those bewitching eyes made Zhao De feel like he was about to get an erection. He really didn't dare to fantasize any further.

Zhao De, who was always quick to get familiar with people, didn't know why today he couldn't perform in front of Xu Min's wife, and couldn't even find a topic to talk about. He just kept holding the glass and drinking honey water, feeling sweet in his heart. Xu Min's wife seemed to realize that the atmosphere between the two was a bit awkward. She stood up and said to Zhao De, "Comrade Xiao Zhao, you sit for a while, I'll go wash some clothes."

Zhao De realized that the atmosphere was a bit cold, and he was embarrassed to sit alone in someone else's house. So he put down the glass, stood up as well, and said, "Alright then, sister-in-law, you go ahead, I'll be leaving first."

"Not sitting for a while?" Xu Min's wife asked with polite words.

Zhao De shook his head with a smile and said, "No, I still have something to do, so I'll go first."

Xu Min's wife said, "Alright then, I'll see you off."

So, Xu Min's wife saw Zhao De all the way to the door, watched Zhao De go downstairs, and then closed the door and went in.

While going down the stairs, Zhao De's mind was full of the fox-like appearance of Xu Min's wife. Based on Zhao De's rich experience in hunting for beauty over the years, combined with the physiognomy of Xu Min's young wife, Zhao De felt that this young woman should belong to the repressed type. This kind of woman is often the easiest to cheat.

Just as Zhao De was letting his imagination run wild, his mobile phone buzzed twice, and a message came in. He took out his phone and saw that it was from that fat guy's strange number again. Opening it, the content was as follows: Director Liu, is there really no room for peace with my big brother? Do you have to forge such a deadly feud and treat each other as enemies?

Seeing this message, a cold sneer flashed across the corner of Zhao De's mouth, and he replied: Brother, there is no need for others to worry about my affairs with Bureau Chief Sun. Please don't keep sending messages to disturb me. Thank you!

Soon, the other party replied: Hehe, Director Liu, it seems you are determined to forge this deadly feud. My big brother's business is my business. If you don't make peace with my big brother, then let's wait and see! Director Liu seems to have a pretty good relationship with a woman, and that woman's husband is paralyzed in bed. There is also a girl who runs a car wash shop, who should also have an extraordinary relationship with Director Liu, right? Brother will go to take care of that man paralyzed in bed from time to time, and will also often go to that pretty girl's car beauty shop to take care of business. I will definitely fulfill the responsibility for Director Liu!

Seeing this text message, Zhao De's heart couldn't help but tighten. This was clearly a naked threat. He couldn't help but start worrying about Zheng Jie and Chen Man. And the mystery that had been hanging in his heart was finally solved: Zhao Da was beaten by people sent by this fat guy. After the sudden realization, all the clouds of doubt dissipated. Sun Changsheng letting people do that was, on one hand, to intimidate him and make him lose his footing, and on the other hand, to make him have no time to care about the land matter.

Now this guy sent such a message, clearly coercing Zhao De to make peace with Sun Changsheng. What Zhao De worried about most was not himself, but Zheng Jie and Chen Man. Now that fat guy seemed to have a clear grasp of his secrets. If he really wanted to go his own way and continue to go against Sun Changsheng, he was really afraid that the fat guy would go and cause trouble for Zheng Jie and Chen Man. From the physiognomy of that fat guy, one could see that he was a ruthless guy and would definitely not be alarmist. And the most important point was that those people were hiding in the dark and could not be guarded against at all. If he still wanted to go against that old fox Sun Changsheng, maybe Zheng Jie and Chen Man would be in danger at any time. Standing downstairs at Xu Min's house, looking at the words hidden with murderous intent on the phone screen, Zhao De pondered for a long time. After weighing the pros and cons, for the safety of Zheng Jie and Chen Man, he hardened his heart and decided to admit defeat to Sun Changsheng.
