Zhang Hongyang snickered with a cold laugh, slumped onto the sofa in the reception area with an unashamed look on his face.
"Face? Ha... Us folks in officialdom? When have we ever really cared about face? You say you want to divorce me, but I won't do it. What can you do to me? Of course, if you want a divorce, that's fine too. Just have a baby for me, then you can scram, and I won't mind at all, ha..."
"Zhang Hongyang, you're dreaming! I am definitely not having a child with you! If you won't divorce, fine, I'll take it to court. I'm going out and don't have time to waste on you. Please leave!"
Zhao Han slung her bag over her shoulder, looking eager to get rid of him.
Zhang Hongyang snorted coldly twice. "You go on then! I'm going to lie here on this sofa for a bit. I did drink too much at noon, and I want to rest a while longer. What's the problem? Can the eldest son of the Zhang family not sleep in any office he chooses in Yangzhou?"
Zhao Han was at a loss for words, feeling annoyed and unable to bear the sight of Liu Zhizhong squeezed underneath her desk, such a tall man cramped in such a small space.
But Zhang Hongyang seriously plopped down on the sofa, waving his hand in an annoyed manner, "Go on then, go on your business trip, just ignore me."
After speaking, he closed his eyes, kicked off his leather shoes, sending them flying to the other side.
Then, he lay there in his stinky socks with his feet propped on the armrest of the sofa, clearly ready to take a nap.
Zhao Han had no choice but to snort coldly and said, "Ruffian, shameless!"
Zhang Hongyang nodded without opening his eyes, "Hmm, right, you're correct, I am!"
Zhao Han, furious, stomped her foot and had to leave immediately, slamming the door loudly as she went. Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⚑𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖⚑𝕟𝕖𝕥
Zhang Hongyang grumbled to himself, "Damned wife, daring to talk about divorce, let's see if I don't fix you..."
Liu Zhizhong was truly suffering!
Underneath Zhao Han's desk, there was indeed plenty of space, but being a large man, cramping himself in there for a long time was really uncomfortable.
But what could he do now?
With Zhang Hongyang sticking around and refusing to leave, if Liu Zhizhong came out, wouldn't that give himself away? He couldn't afford to make such a mistake!
Sweat was starting to form on Liu Zhizhong's body.
He just prayed that no one would call him at this moment; a call would be disastrous.
Thus, he quickly put both his personal and work phones on silent mode, not even daring to leave them on vibrate.
At the same time, he hurriedly messaged Zhao Han, asking her to act fast as that was the only way to help him.
Zhao Han, meanwhile, was anxiously rushing downstairs, feeling as agitated as ants on a hot pan. Even if Liu Zhizhong wasn't discovered, the situation was unbearable. She, being a woman, indeed lacked maturity and wisdom, too flustered to think of a solution.
Just then, Liu Zhizhong's message popped up, Wow! Zhao Han's eyes lit up, "Truly, my man! Such a smart idea."
Immediately, Zhao Han stopped at the stair corner and made a phone call to Zhang Hongyang.
Zhang Hongyang was lying comfortably on the sofa, having just lit a cigarette, still with his stinky feet propped up.
Seeing the call from his wife, Zhang Hongyang got excited.
"Damn, she's softening up, huh? Damn woman, you're still my woman!"
Zhang Hongyang cursed a couple of times before he answered Zhao Han's call on speakerphone.
"Hey wifey, what's up? Changed your mind? Heh, good if you did!"
Zhao Han's voice crystal clear, Liu Zhizhong could hear every word distinctly.
"Zhang Hongyang you shameless cur, if you don't get out of my office right now, I'm calling the police, and I'll call the director of the city police directly, making a huge scene. Also, I might just call your Uncle Zhenglong and see whether he supports you or me. Oh, and your dear aunt Mayor Zhang, I could call her too. Why don't you try me?"
"You bitch... Zhao Han, you damned bitch, how dare you..." Zhang Hongyang was truly shaken.
Zhao Han immediately retorted, "Hurry up and get down from my office, I'm waiting for you in the courtyard to have a word with you!"
