Chapter 39 Please Conduct Yourself with Dignity!

“Humph! You are not Nian Xi. When did you become the old one?” Fu Zhengzheng says coldly.

In fact, she really doesn’t resist his embrace. But thinking of all kinds of women in his arms, can she accept his body with the fragrance from other women’s bodies?

“Don’t contact with that man!”

“It is none of your business!” Fu Zhengzheng doesn’t know which man he was referring to, and she just pouts habitually.

“Don’t challenge my patience!”

Han Siqi grabs her arm with greater strength, which makes her gasp with pain. She grasps his arm with her both hands and says in pain, “Let me go. You can date other women, why can’t I? Who am I to you? And who are you to me? Why do you interfere with my business? If Fu Xing hadn’t bought you to be his daddy, we would not have known each other!”

Han Siqi seems to be touched, and loosens his grip. Fu Zhengzheng pushes him away and groans. Then she hurries upstairs. After turning on the light in the room she slowly turns around and slowly closes the door, but finds that Han Siqi does not follow her. Her heart suddenly sinks.

Closing the door, she goes straight to bed without taking a bath.

It seems that there is still a smell of Han Siqi on her lips. But the scene that he kissed other women flashes through her mind from time to time. Somehow, she feels jealous at once.

Fu Zhengzheng, hold on!

Even though she tells herself like this again and again, her heart can’t be controlled by her brain. She sinks little by little.

Alas...

A long sigh.

It made sense that they had intimacies when she didn’t know that he had a fiancée. After all, they were both single, and she even had a little hope.

But now she knows it. Can she pretend that nothing has happened?

I don’t love Han Siqi. I am a little touched by him only because he looks like Nian Xi. I don’t love him, don’t love him.

Fu Zhengzheng warns herself again and again in her heart: I am not here to fall in love with him. I am here to investigate the case.

Investigation...

Drug trafficking...

Zhou Bing...

Security captain...

She suddenly sits up. Is that a clue?

Previously it was because the staff of Weihan involved in drug trafficking that she was assigned to investigate Han Siqi. Since she came here, she has been cooperating with Yang Tao. But she hasn’t found any clue. So they came to the conclusion that Weihan and Han Siqi were innocent.

No, she can’t let go of the clue of Zhou Bing. Maybe it’s a turning point!

She immediately takes out her mobile phone to send a message to Yang Tao, asking him to investigate Zhou Bing.

After sending the message, her heart becomes heavy again. She reminds herself once again that she is here to investigate the case, and that she shall attach importance to everything related to the case, and shall not be influenced by other factors.

She stretches and is ready to take a shower, but finds that the screen of the mute cellphone on the bed lights up. She picks the phone up immediately, and finds it is Yang Tao’s message, “Zhengzheng, have you not slept yet?”

After thinking for a while, she replies, “I’m going to sleep. Why don’t you sleep now?”

But before sending it, she deletes “Why don’t you sleep now?”

“I can’t fall asleep. I miss you, Zhengzheng.”

Fu Zhengzheng is shocked, and then she replies after a long time, “Go to bed early. I am going to sleep too.”

After deleting all these messages, she puts her cellphone away, takes her pajamas and goes into the bathroom.

*

Early in the morning, after taking Fu Xing to the kindergarten, Fu Zhengzheng comes to the company’s security department with eye bags. She looks around, only to find a few security guards eating steamed buns inside, but doesn’t see Zhou Bing

“Miss Fu, what can I do for you?” The security guard Wang immediately puts down the bun when he sees Fu Zhengzheng.

“Where is Captain Zhou? Didn’t he come today?”

Wang shakes head and says, “No. Captain Zhou hasn’t come to work for two days. Maybe he has some personal affairs to do. Miss Fu, we can also help you if you need.”

“He hasn’t come for two days? Is he on leave?” Fu Zhengzheng asks.

Wang shakes his head again. “I don’t know.”

“Will he come today?” Fu Zhengzheng asks.

Wang shakes his head once again.

Fu Zhengzheng thinks for a moment and says, “I need Captain Zhou’s help. If he comes before getting off work, please tell him to come to my office.”

On the way back to the office, Fu Zhengzheng keeps thinking about Zhou Bing. She hopes Zhou Bing will come to work today.

She secretly turns on the small cellphone, but doesn’t see Yang Tao’s short message. She thinks for a while before sending a message to Yang Tao, telling him that Zhou Bing didn’t come to work yesterday.

Putting away the phone, she gets up to clean the table. After seeing some documents on the desk which she helped Xu Yan sort out yesterday, she takes them to her. Now it’s time for work, but she hasn’t come yet.

Is she sick? Xu Yan has always been very active and earnest at work, and she never comes to work late or leaves early. Thinking of that, Fu Zhengzheng calls Xu Yan.

The phone is not answered, which makes Fu Zhengzheng a little worried. When the phone rings for the third time, Xu Yan answers in a lazy voice, “Hello, Zhengzheng.”

“Xu Yan, are you sick?”

“No.”

“No? Why don’t you come to work? It’s over eight o’clock!”

“Ah—” After a scream, the phone is hung up.

Fu Zhengzheng realizes that she must have overslept.

She shrugs her shoulders, implying that there is nothing she can do. You know, Weihan will deduct not only the attendance prize, but also the bonus for people who are late for work or leave early without a good reason.

After putting down the cellphone, another call comes in.

It is from Han Siqi.

She quickly picks up the phone and is about to answer it, but soon she puts it down. Watching the phone ringing all the time, she finally answers it.

“Where are you?” It is Han Siqi’s gravelly voice.

“In the office.”

“Come to Liufu Soup Shop.”

“I have had breakfast.”

Fu Zhengzheng knows that shop. Fu Xing loves the soup vermicelli and soup dumplings there most, and has asked Han Siqi to take him to the shop twice. But she knows that Han Siqi does not like the shop very much. After all, the shop is simple, and is not hygienic in his eyes, thus it is not proper for people like him to go there.

But she did not expect that he would invite her to have breakfast there today. Although she refused, she still felt warm.

“I didn’t ask you to come to eat. Send me money to settle the bill.”

Han Siqi’s cold voice makes Fu Zhengzheng a little annoyed. It turns out that she has misunderstood!

“How can you not bring money with you when you go there for breakfast? I am working now, and I don’t have time.”

“Now it’s working time. Does an assistant have the right to disobey the boss’s command?”

Fu Zhengzheng doesn’t know what to say, hanging up the phone in a huff.

To be honest, she really doesn’t want to see him much now, but she is his employee.

When she picks up her handbag and is about to leave, she suddenly thinks of Xu Yan. She has got an idea, and immediately calls Xu Yan, asking her to go to Liufu Soup Shop to pay for Han Siqi’s breakfast. Then she advises Xu Yan to tell Ma, who is in charge of the attendance, that she can’t come back to sign in on time because she is temporarily arranged a task by Han Siqi.

Not signing in because of business will not affect attendance and bonuses.

In this way, Xu Yan can get out of trouble, and she can avoid seeing the nasty man. Hanging up the phone, Fu Zhengzheng feels very happy. She even hums a tune while packing things, so that she even doesn’t notice that Min Zhongxu has gone into the office.

Min Zhongxu pokes his head curiously, asking, “Little Zhengzheng, why are you so happy today?”

Fu Zhengzheng is startled. When she sees it is Min Zhongxu, she replies smilingly, “Because the weather is fine. Manager Min, Mr. Han has not come yet.”

“I know he hasn’t come. My trousers accidentally got wet in the tea room, and I didn’t want to come back home to change them, so I came here to get one from him.” Min Zhongxu points at the lounge.

Fu Zhengzheng knows that there are some clothes in the wardrobe of Han Siqi’s lounge and also knows Min Zhongxu’s relationship with Han Siqi, so she is not surprised.

When he comes in, she suddenly gets an idea and deliberately tries to move her desk

When Min Zhongxu sees the scene after changing the trousers, he asks curiously, “Little Zhengzheng, what are you doing?”

“I want to move the desk so that it will be more convenient for me.”

Min Zhongxu immediately pats the table and says kindly, “Oh, it shall be done by men. How can you little woman do that? You can ask two security guards to move it.”

Fu Zhengzheng “wipes” the sweat and deliberately says embarrassedly, “I went to ask Captain Zhou for help, but I didn’t see him. I am not familiar with other security guards, so I am too embarrassed to ask them for help.”

“Zhou Bing? If you don’t mention him, I almost forget that he hasn’t come to work for two days without asking for leave. If he comes today, I will fire him.” Min Zhongxu knocks on the desk again and says, “Don’t move it. I will ask two security guards for you later.”

“Thank you, Manager Min. You are such a warm-hearted person, just like your girlfriend, Linglong.” While complimenting Min Zhongxu, Fu Zhengzheng is speculating about Zhou Bing’s disappearance.

About half an hour later, Han Siqi returns to his office.

When Fu Zhengzheng makes tea for him, she secretly glances at him, wondering why his face darkens in the early morning. It looks like someone owes him a lot of money.

As usual, she serves the tea to him and says softly, “Mr. Han, your tea.”

For his sake of “saving” Xu Yan today, she is gentle to him.

“Why did you ask Xu Yan to pay the bill for me?” Instead of drinking the tea, Han Siqi asks her.

“The office was in a mess, and I wanted to tidy it up before your arrival, so I asked Xu Yan to go there. Anyway, she was free then. Didn’t she bring money either?” Fu Zhengzheng suddenly feels that it is wrong for Fu Xing to say that she is stupid. In fact, she is quite brilliant.

“You didn’t go there on purpose!” Han Siqi says while gritting his teeth.

Fu Zhengzheng pretends to be innocent, saying, “Mr. Han, I am eating, living and sleeping at your home. How dare I intentionally not go?”

Han Siqi grabs Fu Zhengzheng’s hand and pulls her, intending to pull her to him. Fu Zhengzheng is well prepared. She holds the desk with one hand to keep balance, and shakes off his grip with the other hand.

Han Siqi gets up and turns around swiftly, surrounding her beside the desk.

Feeling the danger, Fu Zhengzheng tries to lean back and puts one hand against his chest, warning loudly, “Mr. Han, this is your office. Please conduct yourself with dignity!”

Han Siqi feels the nervousness of the woman in front of him, and he says teasingly, “This is my private office. Do you think I can do whatever I want?”

“Don’t you dare!”

“Do you think I dare not?” Han Siqi frowns.

As Han Siqi’s face is approaching little by little, Fu Zhengzheng tries to lean back. She moans inwardly that since this fellow drank too much last night, would his boldness last until today?

No! She can’t let him succeed!

He has a girlfriend and fiancée. He flirts with her just to take advantage of her!

Thinking of that, Fu Zhengzheng is annoyed.

By now, Han Siqi’s lips have reached a centimeter away from her lips, and she is almost “lying” on the desk.

She clearly sees that he is teasing her, thus getting furious. She feels the handle of the cup which she has just offered to him after making tea. She, then grasps it, ready to pour the tea to him.
