Protagonist:

Li Xiulan

After Liang Xinghua hung up the phone, Zhong Liying immediately panicked.

She never expected that after laying out her plans to this point, just one step from success, such a complication would arise!

Wouldn't she then have been slept with by that old man Liang Xinghua for nothing?

Most fatal of all, in order to play the role of a virtuous wife and good mother, during her time with Liang Xinghua she deliberately did not spend his money, sometimes even treating him when they went out to eat!

All told, she had actually been subsidizing him!

With such a huge hole blown open, how was she to explain herself to Huo Zhi Hui?

Zhong Liying hurriedly called Liang Xinghua back; no matter what, she had to detain him!

However, to her surprise, Liang Xinghua had already blocked her!

Not only had he blocked her mobile phone contact information!

He had blocked her WeChat too!

Zhong Liying was utterly astonished!

Only now did she realize that when a man becomes resolute, he is truly without a trace of dragging feet!

With no other choice, she could only truthfully report the situation here to Huo Zhi Hui!

She hoped Huo Zhi Hui could come up with a remedy!

"Hello, General Manager Huo, something terrible has happened!"

As soon as Zhong Liying spoke, she was panicked and flustered.

Hearing her tone, Huo Zhi Hui was stunned, his brow slightly furrowed:

"What's wrong?"

Zhong Liying hurriedly said:

"Liang Xinghua has discovered my affair with you!"

Huo Zhi Hui was shocked and dismayed:

"How did he discover it? Weren't you hiding it well?"

Zhong Liying explained with a wry smile:

"This afternoon he came to our company early and saw us going out together."

Huo Zhi Hui immediately slapped his thigh:

"I said not to go to a hotel first, not to go to a hotel first, but you impatiently dragged me to a hotel, and now look! A huge hole has been blown open, all our previous efforts will come to nothing!"

Knowing it was her fault, Zhong Liying's face was full of apology as she weakly explained:

"I didn't expect him to come to the company to find me at five o'clock either; he used to come at eight or nine, and would call me before coming..."

"Stop saying these useless things!"

Huo Zhi Hui's face was full of impatience:

"Remedial measures must be taken immediately!"

Zhong Liying laughed dryly:

"He has blocked all my contact information; I'm afraid we're really finished, General Manager Huo. I can't think of a remedy, so I still need you to help devise a plan."

Hearing this, Huo Zhi Hui was furious.

He finally let out a long sigh.

To take revenge on Liang Xinghua, he had spent a great deal of manpower, material resources, and financial resources, plotting for so long, only to end up failing at the last moment; he was truly unwilling to accept it!

But he also knew that the original plan definitely could not go through.

After Liang Xinghua learned Zhong Liying's true colors, it was impossible for him to embezzle public funds to give her a bride price of 288,000!

At this point, he had to urgently change his thinking and adjust his layout strategy!

After pondering for a long time, Huo Zhi Hui spoke:

"Tomorrow you go to Li Guoshan Human Resources Subsidiary and demand an explanation from Liang Xinghua!"

Zhong Liying was stunned, somewhat surprised:

"I was the one in the wrong first; how can I demand an explanation from him?"

Anyone with a shred of morality would have no face to demand an explanation in this situation.

However, Huo Zhi Hui wanted Zhong Liying to discard her moral notions.

"Just don't admit you were in the wrong first! He only saw you and me coming out of the company together; it's very likely he didn't record any evidence at all!"

Hearing this, Zhong Liying was stunned.

Huo Zhi Hui reminded her again:

"Remember, strike first to gain the upper hand and turn the tables! Since we can't let him embezzle public funds, we'll ruin his reputation; once his reputation is ruined, I can have my Second Uncle find an excuse to fire him!"

Huo Zhi Hui had originally wanted to send Liang Xinghua to prison, but now that this situation had been foiled, he could only settle for second best and choose to pull Liang Xinghua down from his current position.

This could also be considered no small punishment for Liang Xinghua.

"Alright, I understand! I'll go make a scene at his company tomorrow!"

Zhong Liying agreed to Huo Zhi Hui, then asked another question:

"General Manager Huo, after this matter is over, will you really marry me?"

Zhong Liying's question made her seem like a lovestruck fool.

Naturally, Huo Zhi Hui would never marry her.

It's just a pity she was blinded by a single leaf, completely unable to see the situation clearly.

She actually thought that as long as she obeyed Huo Zhi Hui's every word, she could win his favor.

In fact, when Huo Zhi Hui made the demand that she give herself to Liang Xinghua, she should have realized right then that Huo Zhi Hui would never marry her!

A normal man would never willingly let the woman he intends to marry climb into another man's bed.

Men are all possessive; they won't even share their own toys lightly, let alone a woman?

It's just a pity Zhong Liying was too young, unable to understand this layer of truth.

"Rest assured, once this matter is settled, I'll properly marry you with all the formal rites! We'll go shoot a set of ultra-luxurious wedding photos then, and also hold an ultra-grand wedding ceremony! I'll make you the happiest woman in the world!"

Huo Zhi Hui spoke these words firmly and convincingly, as if they were truly real.

He frequented all kinds of pleasure quarters, so sweet talk to women came naturally to him.

Zhong Liying actually believed it!

With Huo Zhi Hui saying this, she immediately brimmed with motivation!

"That's what you said — no going back on it when the time comes! If you go back on it, you're a little dog!"

Zhong Liying said this.

Huo Zhi Hui agreed without even thinking:

"If I go back on it, I'm a little dog!"

After all, so-called promises, so-called vows, don't cost money — you can say them however you like.

In the blink of an eye, the next day arrived, around ten in the morning.

Zhong Liying really did come to the Li Guoshan Human Resources Subsidiary to find Liang Xinghua!

"Liang Xinghua, you heartless scoundrel, you piece of trash! Get out here!"

Following the scheme Huo Zhi Hui gave her, she shouted the moment she entered, seizing the initiative and reversing right and wrong!

Her shout immediately drew the attention of all the company's employees, top to bottom.

Everyone wore looks of surprise, discussing it heatedly in private.

The news quickly reached Liang Xinghua's office.

"General Manager Liang, a woman's come looking for you, shouting that you're a heartless scoundrel and piece of trash — you'd better hurry out and take a look!"

Liang Xinghua was immediately startled:

"Who's running wild here?"

Liang Xinghua's first reaction was that it was his ex-wife Lan Menglian.

Because only Lan Menglian would be so unreasonable.

He never would have guessed it was Zhong Liying.

Because in his impression, Zhong Liying still had some sense of shame.

Impossible for her to do something like this.

The result was something he never in a million years expected — when he walked out of his office and reached the company lobby,

what he saw was Zhong Liying.

He immediately laughed from anger:

"Zhong Liying, you still have the face to come find me? What do you mean by this!"

Zhong Liying was frightened a bit by Liang Xinghua's imposing manner, but quickly adjusted her mindset.

She raised her voice and retorted:

"You've slept with me for free for over half a year, and you have the nerve to ask me what I mean?"
