Chapter 3061
Under Zhao Desan's reminder, Zheng Jie immediately heard the problem in that sentence. Her brain buzzed, and the previously aggrieved expression immediately became somewhat awkward. She couldn't help but lower her head, not even daring to look directly into Zhao Desan's piercing gaze.
Seeing Zheng Jie standing there, caught off guard and feeling awkward and uneasy, Zhao Desan sneered twice and asked in return: "Why aren't you saying anything?"
Zheng Jie lowered her head, her expression extremely awkward. Standing there motionless, she truly didn't know how to answer Zhao Desan. She knew in her heart that Zhao Desan had heard from Director Zhang's words that she and Director Zhang had actually done 'that' more than once. Director Zhang's words were very straightforward. Facing a smart guy like Zhao Desan, Zheng Jie knew that no matter how she argued, he wouldn't believe her anymore. She could only remain silent.
Zheng Jie's silence further fueled the anger in Zhao Desan's heart. He immediately furrowed his brows and shouted angrily at Zheng Jie: "Why? Why aren't you saying anything? Didn't you say you went to Director Zhang for my sake? It looks like your relationship with Director Zhang has long been extraordinary, right? It seems I, Zhao Desan, really misjudged you. I always thought you, Zheng Jie, were very loyal to me. Turns out, besides me, a Director Zhang has popped up! You, Zheng Jie, really have infinite charm. Very nice, very nice. In the future, if you have any problems at home, don't come to me, Zhao Desan, for help anymore. After all, you have Director Zhang, who is very capable. You don't need me anymore..." Zhao Desan, filled with anger, unleashed a series of sarcastic remarks at Zheng Jie.
Listening to Zhao Desan's sarcasm and mockery, Zheng Jie felt especially aggrieved. Finally, she couldn't help it, and two lines of tears streamed down her face as she began to cry.
Seeing Zheng Jie cry, Zhao Desan knew she was just pretending to be pitiful in front of him, so he said unpleasantly: "What are you doing! Did I say something wrong? If I said something wrong, you can refute it! Why are you crying!"
Zheng Jie felt extremely aggrieved, but she also knew Zhao Desan was in a fit of rage. She didn't dare to look up, quickly wiped her tears, and lowered her head, intending to walk out. When Zhao Desan saw that Zheng Jie not only didn't explain but was actually going to just walk away, an nameless fire surged into his heart. He said with thorns in his words: "What, do you feel I hurt your self-esteem or something? Don't leave yet. Explain to me, what exactly is going on between you and that Director Zhang?" Even if he and Zheng Jie were to never see each other again, Zhao Desan felt he needed to get to the bottom of the matter between Zheng Jie and that Director Zhang, otherwise, he couldn't swallow this anger.
"It's... it's nothing..." Zheng Jie said, choking back sobs.
Zhao Desan's anger rushed to his head again. He thought: Damn it! I was kind enough to give you face, why are you being so ungrateful! Thinking of this, Zhao Desan said very impolitely: "Since it's nothing, then in the future, you walk your sunny path, and I'll walk my single-plank bridge. From now on, I, Zhao Desan, and Zheng Jie will never see each other again! You can go!"
"I... I also have my own difficulties..." Seeing Zhao Desan's attitude was very firm, Zheng Jie said with a tearful, aggrieved voice. As the words fell, Zheng Jie was once again covered in tears.
Zhao Desan was stunned for a moment, staring straight at Zheng Jie, and asked: "Why?" At the moment Zheng Jie said 'have my own difficulties', Zhao Desan realized that Zheng Jie must have been under some kind of pressure to submit to that Director Zhang.
"Why? What else could it be? It's just being forced by life. I'm a weak woman, with no background, no backing..." Zheng Jie wiped her tears again, raised her tear-stained face, and said to Zhao Desan.
Zhao Desan looked at Zheng Jie's beautiful, mature face. Her exquisite features were so pleasing to the eye, giving one a feeling of extreme comfort at first glance. Although her face was covered in tears, she still didn't lose that extremely moving beauty. Looking at the tear-stained, extremely aggrieved Zheng Jie, Zhao Desan couldn't help but soften his heart. He felt he had to get to the bottom of things, so he softened his tone and said: "Am I not your backing?"
"Hehe, you... because of the matter with Tong Xiaoli last time, you were so angry. How could I dare to look for you? And... and..." Zheng Jie smiled bitterly, leaving a cliffhanger.
"And what else?" Zhao Desan, seeing Zheng Jie hesitating, couldn't help but press her.
"Sigh, forget it, I won't say it. It's useless to say it anyway, it's already like this." Zheng Jie seemed to have resigned herself to fate, not wanting to say anymore. "If you think I'm that kind of fickle woman, then suit yourself..."
Seeing Zheng Jie's 'dead pig isn't afraid of boiling water' attitude, an inexplicable anger rushed to Zhao Desan's head again. He furrowed his brows and said: "You haven't even said it yet, how do you know it's useless!"
"Even if I say it, the matter has already happened. Do you have a way to stop it from happening? Besides, you work in the district. Can you help me with things here?" Zheng Jie's words carried a hint of sarcasm.
Zhao Desan, hearing Zheng Jie doubt his ability, became anxious and said: "Don't worry about whether I can help or not! Tell me first, why exactly did you go to that Director Zhang?"
Zheng Jie looked at Zhao Desan's anxious and firm expression. In fact, she was quite grateful. Now, for her, the matter between her and Director Zhang was truly hard to talk about. But facing Zhao Desan, who had misunderstood her, she felt she should just say it, as if to get it off her chest. Thus, with an aggrieved expression, she began to tell Zhao Desan the reason why she and Director Zhang had developed that kind of relationship.
