Chapter 3140: Feeling Depressed

Zhao Desan said, "Much better." Speaking of his nose injury, Zhao Desan felt depressed. If he hadn't tried to be a hero and left the scene early, those little thugs wouldn't have been able to handle it. In the end, he didn't become a hero but a coward, saved by a beauty. This matter always made Zhao Desan feel embarrassed, but what he couldn't forget was the suspicious nature of the incident. He still hadn't figured out who had such a grudge against him that they would hire people to retaliate. In the past few years, he had offended so many prominent figures, and none of them dared to do this. It seems this person is truly malicious and hates him to the bone.

Just as Zhao Desan was lost in thought, Sister Wu looked at his swollen nose and reached out to touch it carefully. Who knew, as soon as her fingertips touched it, Zhao Desan immediately grimaced and let out an "Ouch," his expression looking very exaggerated.

Sister Wu's hand retracted as if it had been electrocuted, and she hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."

Zhao Desan frowned and grimaced, saying "It's okay" while still crying out in pain.

"How could you be so careless to bump your nose?" Sister Wu looked at Zhao Desan helplessly and said.

Zhao Desan looked at Sister Wu's concerned expression, pondered for a moment, then looked at her seriously and said, "Sister Wu, actually I lied to you..."

"Lied to me about what?" Sister Wu raised her delicate brows slightly and looked at Zhao Desan with confusion.

Zhao Desan stammered, "Sister Wu, actually my nose wasn't bumped, it was... it was beaten by someone..." Zhao Desan felt that if he explained the situation, Sister Wu might be able to help him analyze it.

"Ah? Beaten by someone?" Hearing Zhao Desan explain the truth, Wu Min immediately widened her eyes in astonishment.

Zhao Desan nodded affirmatively and said, "That afternoon after I got off work, I was sitting in a small park by the street. Several young men were following me sneakily. Later, they approached me, saying someone paid them to teach me a lesson, and they beat me up..."

"Someone paid people to teach you a lesson?" The more Wu Min heard, the more incredible it felt. She narrowed her eyes, furrowed her brows, and felt extremely confused.

"Yes." Zhao Desan nodded affirmatively, looking at Sister Wu pitifully, and continued, "Sister Wu, who do you think would be so ruthless to hire people to teach me a lesson?"

Wu Min knew that with Zhao Desan's fearless personality, mixing in official circles, he must have offended many people. She speculated, "Have you offended anyone recently?"

Zhao Desan shook his head and said, "How could I? I just came back from studying at the Provincial Party School, my seat isn't even warm yet, where would I have the time to offend anyone?"

Wu Min didn't quite understand, furrowing her brows and saying thoughtfully, "Then who else would go to such great lengths to retaliate against you?"
