Chapter 136 - Sisters and Careers

When Zheng Yanhong saw that Zhao Shensan had used the wound that he had prepared for her every now and then to stick onto the wound, she angrily left for the meeting.

After Zhao Shensan saw that his wound was filled with blood, he finally managed to coax Zheng Yanhong to leave. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief, and limped back to his office to sit on a chair. He heaved a sigh of relief.

He closed his eyes relaxed, his mind slowly combing through Zheng Yanhong's abnormality, trying to figure out what was wrong with her from the clues that seemed to have caused her to become so angry.

The first thing he could be sure of was that Zheng Yanhong's abnormality had started from last night, because she was still fine when she got off work yesterday afternoon, yet now she looked like this. Then, what exactly happened to her last night?

Another thing that might be relevant is her sulky request to book a flight home for the new year. Does that mean she's using her parents' home to avoid or resist the alternative arrangements for the new year? If so, who had forced her?

The third point was Lin Maoling's sudden visit! Zhao Shensan already knew that this woman was Lin Maoren's little sister, so the last time she came, Zheng Yanhong's warmth and familiarity towards her definitely would not be as cold and casual as it was today. Zheng Yanhong only had one explanation for treating her like this, and that was that this woman was definitely related to Zheng Yanhong's trouble!

These two girlfriends could at most be considered as best friends. What kind of conflict could cause Zheng Yanhong to not care about temperament and cultivation, to not even bother greeting her good friends? Not only that, Zheng Yanhong, who always took her career as a priority, actually seemed to not even want to work anymore.

Why on earth?

Zhao Shensan rubbed his brows in silence, thinking hard and kept on twisting and turning the threads that did not seem to be related to each other. Suddenly, a clear line appeared. Could it be that all of this had something to do with Lin Maoren? Then... The Sister Zheng actually had feelings for the Secretary Lin?

This sudden appearance of this thought made Zhao Shensan almost jump out of pain, it also caused the wound on his leg to hurt, his chest also became stuffy as if there was a large stone pressed on his chest, and his head was covered in sweat!

There were many, many clues that could tell that Zheng Yanhong had a deep grudge with the Secretary Lin. Even Zhu Changshan had raised this suspicion several times before, but he had always consciously avoided this thought, as he felt that other than him, his Sister Zheng would not be able to hold another person in his heart.

However … This kind of self-deceptive thought was completely shattered today. The waves of pain coming from his chest made it hard for him to accept that he actually cared so much about whether Zheng Yanhong was interested in him or not, and actually cared that the moment this thought appeared clearly in his mind, a heart-wrenching pain assaulted him!

Eh? Wait! If it was really because the Secretary Lin was that angry, could it be that the Secretary Lin had always been chasing after the Sister Zheng, but she was actually avoiding it, or even resisting it? If that was the case, wouldn't it mean that his Sister Zheng was still his alone?

What should he do? In this kind of situation where Zheng Yanhong rejected her so much, should he try to make things difficult for him, or should he take advantage of her rebellious feelings to move her with his old feelings, which he had endured until he was extremely thirsty, dream with her again? With the two small matters that he had tried to persuade her to hold a meeting with, Zhao Shensan was able to deduce clearly that even though Zheng Yanhong had made three agreements with him, his psychological dependence on her still did not disappear. As long as he skillfully teased her, she would definitely obediently return to his arms.

Thinking back to the sweet times of the past, that was simply honey oil, beautiful like a dream ah …

As Zhao Shensan thought of this, the stifling pain in his chest immediately subsided, and the cat like tensed muscles gradually relaxed. When he relaxed, he was instead able to think rationally. He blamed himself for being still unable to leave the emotional whirlpool. It might even be possible for him to go to Wu Shan with Zheng Yanhong again. But if it really turned out like that, would he still be able to stay by her side for a long time?

No way! Zheng Yanhong was such a woman that paid attention to her image and career, her emotions were also so rich and empty, he was indeed able to fill her regret, but her personality was so simple and straightforward. How could he be a lover, or how could she be a career assistant?

So, what if he wanted to be the role?

Zhao Shensan frowned once again, because he hated this type of multiple choice question, and even more so because these two answers that he could choose from were all he wanted. He couldn't help but recall the countless tests he had gone through during his school-days. At that time, he loved to take single selections the most, because he could estimate the answers in a short amount of time using the elimination method. He hated having to choose too many.

But today, he would rather God give him a chance to choose two answers based on Zheng Yanhong's relationship with him. If possible, he would rather spend ten years of his life in exchange for the two roles of Zheng Yanhong's emotional partner and career assistant!

"Sigh …" He couldn't help but let out a long and painful sigh. He knew that the heavens would not treat him so well, and he didn't have the ability to achieve the perfection of both his characters!

He understood that if he didn't treat Zheng Yanhong as a pure leader, he would use her lover's heart to help her do whatever she wanted when it came to dealing with matters that needed calm. With her personality of not caring about anything, she would do whatever it was preposterous to do whatever came her way.

Then treat her as a pure lover? The treasure in his, Zhao Shensan's, hands? Thinking of this, he smiled faintly. That woman always had the demeanor of a grown woman. In fact, behind her majesty, there was a soft and fragile heart that needed his protection! As long as he knew, although she took care of him like a big sister, she actually enjoyed the sense of security and satisfaction he gave her all the time. However, he would rather not expose her inversion, but he knew in his heart that this woman who was five years older than him was, after all, a little girl held in his hands by Zhao Shensan. He needed to protect her like a broken dew.

How he wished he could live like this! There's her, there's a career, there's a perfect dream...

"Ai!" He sighed again. Yes, beautiful dream-like days would never truly exist! He could only choose one, and not the greedy ones.

Reaching this kind of helpless situation, Zhao Shensan actually made his choice very easily — — Business!

No one understood what a career meant to him more than he did. It represented the ultimate benefits of being an ordinary civil servant who would never be able to get a place like a house, food, status, money, or even family.

Yes, he was already used to making his parents proud of him, using the New house to satisfy goals that his parents had never achieved in their entire lives. Furthermore, he already had a personal asset that was incomparable to when he was with Zheng Yanhong, and he even had several women that he would throw himself into her embrace with a wave of his hand, so wasn't this all gained from being Zheng Yanhong's business partner?

Although these women could not be compared to the meaning of Zheng Yanhong to him, but herself felt that it was very despicable to let him "take a ladle of the ocean's water", and even give up all of her achievements, that it was still difficult for him to accept!

Since that was the case, then he had to quickly suppress the signs of his emotions, which had been restored to its original state from the time he was in the capital! He was determined to not lose the watermelon for the sake of the sesame seed. He believed that this was not only something that he needed to quickly correct, even Zheng Yanhong had to do so as well. Even if the two of them were to be reunited, it would still have to wait for Zhao Shensan to have enough power to completely accept his care and care. Only then, it was not the time yet!

"Oh no!" Zhao Shensan suddenly had a thought. Could it be that Zheng Yanhong had a scene in the capital with him and had a misunderstanding about the relationship between the two of them, which was why she resisted Lin Maoren's request so much that she would not even bother to do so.

Zhao Shensan started to panic. His strong ambition allowed him to decide to temporarily give up on women for the sake of his career, and once he became someone who could surpass her in terms of success, then openly have her. At that time, he hoped that she could completely become his woman.

It was true that it was painful and conflicted before he made his decision, but once he made his decision, it would instead bring about a kind of joyous and tragic feeling. Zhao Shensan then started to think anxiously, according to his deductions, about how to resolve the conflict between him and Lin Maoren, so that the two people's support would not collapse.

He was no longer entangled with emotions, and his mind immediately became extremely clear. He immediately realized that the crux of the problem lay with the three tickets that Zheng Yanhong had requested to return to her mother's home! So, how do I relieve her?

Zhao Shensan suddenly thought of a person, and immediately, he stood up and rushed towards the phone. Only then did he remember that he was injured, and limped over to the phone and found the phone number that Lin Maoling had called. He hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and returned the call, his heart beating frantically waiting for the person's voice.

"Hey, is that Xiao Zhao?" Lin Maoling was obviously as smart as him.

"It's me, Lady Lin. It's like this. I have something to tell you in secret. You don't think that I have a lot of things to do, do you? I also see that you are the only close friend in our Mayor Zheng, if you had a misunderstanding, then that would not be good, so … " Zhao Shensan said each word carefully, hesitantly and timidly.

"Oh? Hehe, your Mayor Zheng truly has good fortune to have such a meticulous subordinate like you, then just say it, Xiao Zhao, it's alright. " Lin Maoling laughed.

"Our Mayor Zheng came over in the morning and let me book a plane ticket for her to return to City J for the Spring Festival …" Before Zhao Shensan even finished speaking, Lin Maoling had already lost her usual calm demeanour and sharply cried out: "What? She was going back to his parents' home? Have you decided? "

"Mn, I helped her book a plane ticket. However, on the return date, Mayor Zheng seems to be very worried …" Hearing Lin Maoling's reaction, Zhao Shensan knew that his guess was right, and continued to speak.

"What are her concerns?" Lin Maoling interrupted Zhao Shensan once again, as if he was not in the mood for cultivation, and asked: "What did she say?"

"She was very contradictory. She told me many times in a while that she was going to advance the date of return from the seventh day to the third, which meant that she might have left four days of vacation. If you have any plans, you'd better hurry. Hehe, Ms. Lin, if my blabbering can help you and our Mayor Zheng get a chance to travel together, you must thank me! " Zhao Shensan intentionally said with a humorous tone.

"Ah?" She said she would return on the third day? This damned girl … Hehe, Xiao Zhao, thank you so much! Rest assured, I will never forget your benefits, and I hope that you can continue to spread your chatty style in the future. This will not be bad for your Zheng Boss. " Lin Maoling relaxed and started to praise Zhao Shensan from the bottom of his mouth.

"Alright then. I hope I can help you. I also hope that today's call can be kept secret. Goodbye, Lin …"

Just as Zhao Shensan wanted to say goodbye to Lin Maoling, he heard a suspicious voice from behind him: "Xiao Zhao, who are you calling?"

When he heard that Zheng Yanhong had actually come back at an unknown time and was talking behind his back, his heart shook and he almost told her the truth. However, he immediately put down the phone as if nothing had happened and pretended to be calm as he turned his head and said: "Mayor Zheng, you're back? Excuse me for making a personal call about my business... Oh right, didn't you want to attend the banquet? "Why are you back so early?"

Zheng Yanhong had indeed just come in, and her mind was heavy. Her face was filled with absent-mindedness, how could she have the mind to think about what Zhao Shensan was doing behind her back? After hearing what Zhao Shensan said, he believed him. He glanced at Zhao Shensan and saw that he had stood up to help her open the door. Why don't you go first and take a look at the hospital? "

Zhao Shensan's heart warmed, thinking that he had already made the choice to give up on her and choose a career, his heart felt extremely sore. It was a kind of regret and reluctance to part, but he quickly suppressed it and helped her enter the room first, then helped her pour some water before saying: "Mayor Zheng, I'm fine, just that you didn't say what you wanted to come back for. Do you need any information? I'll hurry up and prepare it for you. "

Zheng Yanhong sat down, her heart full of thoughts and thoughts, and didn't say a word for a long time. If... Sigh! Forget it, forget it! "

Zhao Shensan looked at her tightly furrowed brows, still feeling that pained heart. However, he said ruthlessly: "Mayor Zheng, after the new year, you should have completely changed your class. At that time, the leaders of the cities will definitely make some adjustments.

Zheng Yanhong suddenly raised her head, and used a sharp gaze to stare at Zhao Shensan. Then, those large eyes narrowed into a thin line, and still stared at him without blinking.

First, she would give him pressure from her gaze, and then she would interrogate him with sharpness. But he was already prepared, so he just stood there looking at her with a heavy face, and she would not speak a word without asking him, causing him to become discouraged first. Then, he would have a better response.

"What are you trying to say? Xiao Zhao, I feel that you have been acting weird recently! You know how to call yourself brother with 'Head II' Qiao Yuanzheng, and you also know how to be resourceful and cold. And now that you're telling me that we have to adjust our personality in the city, does that mean that you'll have to help me become the next Deputy mayor, and I can only be the silly girl that you call a girl? " Zheng Yanhong finally erupted.

In fact, Zhao Shensan actually liked her to burst out like this. She must have been suppressing it too fiercely from last night to now, if he didn't let her vent it out, something would happen sooner or later!

Looking at her pouting, Zhao Shensan felt waves of tenderness from all directions, but he still did not dare to reveal a hint of emotion. He knew that it would further increase Zheng Yanhong's irrational behavior, and he also understood that Zheng Yanhong had always been suspicious of how he got to know Qiao Yuanzheng, and was also very dissatisfied that he did not speak the truth about her.

He completely disregarded the sharp accusation that Zheng Yanhong had against him, and respectfully spoke without any emotion: "Mayor Zheng, I have known the Director Joe before, so there is nothing important about this. This time, he was the one who told me that there are some interesting things about adjusting the clouds in the province, and from what he says, the Mayor Gao is probably going to leave, but the Secretary Lin will still stay behind, so you should come back a few days earlier. What do you think? "

Zheng Yanhong turned her head and looked out the window, her face was filled with an unfathomable confusion. After looking for a while, she bit her lower lip until it was red, then sighed helplessly. You are a good man! It seems that you are more rational than I am... "Fine, I will do as you say. I hope you won't regret it!"

Looking at the woman's limpid eyes and her tone of voice calling him "Third Brother", Zhao Shensan almost shouted out, "I am regretting it now, let me fall and drown in your sight!" However, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to control his tears, so he turned his back to her and took a deep breath, then said with a hoarse voice: "Mayor Zheng, you should go to the gathering. Also, make a call to Ms. Lin before you go, don't lose your good friend, you'll be even more lonely. I'll be getting off work first. "

Zhao Shensan forced himself to walk out of Zheng Yanhong's office step by step, and he even felt that he had done something extremely stupid. This kind of emotion seemed to cause him to lose all of his strength, and he couldn't even get out of his work.

In the back room, there was a rustling sound. Finally, he recognized that it was a low, choked sound, "Wuu …." "Huu." Sister Mao Ling... I... "Sob, sob, sob …"

He was relieved. He understood that Zheng Yanhong had finally thought things through and was already beginning to act coquettishly with Lin Maoling. He slowly stood up and walked out of the office, slowly supporting himself against the wall as he walked into the elevator. Fortunately, it was past work time, so he was the only one in the elevator.

The courtyard had, of course, been swept clean of snow. A large red carpet had been placed on the tiled steps to the parking lot. It was obvious that the leaders were afraid of slipping down. As Zhao Shensan walked atop it alone, he seemed so lonely and insignificant. He looked at the snow-white snow on the tree not far away and breathed in the cold air. For some reason, he felt that he was so great, so he couldn't help but cheer up, making his back straighten even more. Gradually, his steps got bigger and stronger.

In order to resolve this pain, he needed to quickly use other women to comfort them. He called Shuangshuang, and spoke in a domineering manner like a husband: "Shuangshuang, I'm late for work, but I want to eat dumplings. Help me pack up my bag, I'll be home in half an hour."

Shuangshuang happily agreed, then deliberately made things difficult for him by saying: "I don't want to eat the frozen ones, I want you to wrap them right now, I want the leeks with pig heads."

Only then did Zhao Shensan let out a long breath, and told himself in his heart that as long as he had a cause, he would be able to have everything. If he fell to being the little man behind Zheng Yanhong once again, then he would definitely be unsteady on his feet.

When he took the bus back to Shuangshuang's place, the moment he opened the door, he smelled the fragrance of dumplings and the smell of a hot house. Shuangshuang stuck her head out of the kitchen and revealed a big smile with her flour covered face. The dumplings will be ready soon, you first... "Woo woo …"

When Zhao Shensan saw this, he immediately decided that he was going to marry this girl. He excitedly hugged her tightly, and hungrily kissed her pale white face, as well as her rosy lips. He madly kissed her while kneading her chest, as if he wanted to pour all the love he had for Zheng Yanhong that caused him to lose and lose into her body.

"Wait …" Woo woo … "Third brother, wait a moment, the dumplings are about to be boiled …" The girl struggled.

"I'm not eating, I want to eat you!" Zhao Shensan said tyrannically.
