Volume 1: Die with Unclosed Eyes 33. A sinister woman
I said calmly, "Xiao Qing, Li Zhao is my best brother. He loves you very much, so please don't let him down."
"Hey, what did I say? Why did you bring up Li Zhao again?" She asked me indifferently.
"You...wasn't what you just said excessive?"
"Did I say anything excessive? Point it out." She turned with an unhappy look on her face.
"Are you pretending to be confused or are you really confused? What did you say just now? You said your bottom was delicious. Was that a compliment?"
"Yes, the noodles I made are indeed delicious. This is something everyone knows. Why can't I say it?"
I was stunned, deeply stunned. How did I fall into this trap?
After saying "stop me", she continued, "You are so disgusting, yet you put the blame on me. Am I shameless, or are you vulgar?"
"I, I..." I couldn't utter a word.
"Just tell me if you have any grievances. If you can't, I'll slap you in the face." She became more excited.
Everyone knows this kind of textual trick, but if I really put it on the surface and use it as a reason, I really can't find any way to say anything bad about her.
This woman is not only a whore, but also a whore who likes to set traps for others. Thinking of this, I was furious and wanted to raise my hand to slap her twice, but she looked at me nonchalantly, with a shameless look of "I am a gangster and I am not afraid of anyone".
Today I really opened my eyes. If this woman doesn't get angry, she is no less capable than a man. So I said, "We have nothing to say to each other, so let's stop here today. You can tell Li Zhao that I'm not feeling well and am going home first." After saying this, I turned around and left.
I was in a bad mood and had drunk too much before, so I didn't feel uncomfortable at first, but on the way home, the alcohol took over and I stumbled all the way home without even taking off my shoes. I went to bed and fell asleep.
I woke up in the middle of the night because my throat was too dry. After drinking a bellyful of tap water, I was no longer sleepy. So I lay in bed and began to think about how to persuade Li Zhao to break up with that woman. If they continue to stay together, he will be cuckolded for a long time.
But the problem is that he is currently in the period of passionate love. Men are the most typical male animals. When he is "interested" in a member of the opposite sex, let alone friends, he may even disown his parents. If I persuade him to break up with Xiaoqing at this time, it may end up with a falling out between us.
So it’s really hard to say.
As I was thinking, it was dawn. I got up, washed up, and went to the company early. I was the first one to arrive that day. After I finished boiling water and cleaning, coincidentally, the second person to arrive was Li Zhao.
I said, "I drank too much last night and felt uncomfortable, so I left first. I'll treat your cousin another day." I deliberately didn't mention Xiaoqing.
Li Zhao didn't say anything, but turned on his computer to check the decoration renderings.
I said, "I drank too much yesterday and my head still hurts. How much did you drink later?"
Li Zhao still said nothing.
I couldn't help but feel a little surprised and asked, "I'm talking to you, are you deaf?"
He still didn't respond.
I sighed and said, "You're really petty. I just left early. I really drank too much last night, otherwise I would have gone back. Is there any need to pick a fuss about this?"
"Don't be fucking confused, I'm not mad about this." He muttered.
I was stunned for a moment before I said, "Li Zhao, who are you scolding?"
"Yu Zhen, you are a piece of shit, can you still be considered a human being?" He actually yelled at me.
I was stunned by his scolding, standing there in a daze, not knowing how to respond. But Li Zhao, like a chicken with its blood pumped up, pointed at my nose and scolded me with increasing agitation, "We were together for six years in high school and college, and after graduation I've been starting my own business for four or five years now. Yu Zhen, how have I ever wronged you to treat me like this?"
I was completely confused and said, "Li Zhao, if you have something to say, just tell me clearly. What exactly did I do?"
He was about to continue speaking with a fierce look on his face when several employees came into the office together. Li Zhao stopped talking and pushed the table open and walked out with an angry look on his face.
Those employees didn't know what the conflict between us was. They looked at Li Zhao's back in surprise. I was so angry that I had no place to vent. I waved my hand and said to them, "What are you looking at? Go back to your job."
When I ran out of the office building, the huge square was full of men and women rushing to work, and Li Zhao was nowhere to be seen. I took out my cell phone and called him, but he hung up every time I called.
I had a sudden thought and vaguely felt that the reason why he behaved so abnormally was most likely related to Xiaoqing. This woman must have been trying to sow discord between us behind the scenes. She was taking the initiative to prevent me from saying bad things about her in front of Li Zhao.
I underestimated her. This woman is not only slutty, but also very bad.
The more I thought about it, the angrier I became. I didn't blame Li Zhao. To put it bluntly, he and I were just the same, just the most common group of men and women in the world. I also had women, money, wealth, and power. If I met a woman who was "good at dealing with things" like this, I would definitely be fascinated by her. What's more, Li Zhao had never had a serious relationship with a woman.
It’s better to wait until his anger subsides before relieving your unhappiness.
So I returned to the company to continue working, but I was absent-minded the whole day. When I was about to get off work, I received a call from Lao Chu.
Lao Chu's full name is Chu Sen. When we were in school, he was the "boss" of our dormitory . This was not because he was the oldest, but because his family conditions were the best. Lao Chu's father ran a 4S store and owned two large 4S stores. So when we were in college, Lao Chu often secretly drove his family 's Mercedes-Benz and BMW to take us out to play. Because he had the most money, he was the boss.
However, Lao Chu's personality is more suitable for being the boss, and he is a bit reckless. Of course, this is also based on his good family background.
Although he can be considered a rich second-generation, Lao Chu does not have any particularly bad habits. He especially likes to stand up for the weak and has the chivalrous spirit of a Liangshan hero. However, after I answered his call, Chu Sen scolded me and said he would smash my face.
I knew that this idiot was a man of his word. Although I felt aggrieved, I didn't dare to confront him directly. I said nicely, "Boss, I know it was Li Zhao who said bad things about me in front of you, but I was wronged from the beginning to the end. It was that woman who tried to sow discord between us with ulterior motives." So I told him the whole story.
After hearing this, Lao Chu was quite surprised and said, "Is that so?"
"I'm more wronged than Dou E. Let's analyze this from common sense. Is it really necessary for me to want a woman this much? I'm flirting with my best friend's girlfriend after just the first meeting. Boss, do you think this is common sense?"
"That's true. This bitch actually treated my brother and me like fools. This is fucking too mean."
"This is Li Zhao's first time dating, and I'm happy for him, but there's no need for me to hold back. You have to persuade him to let go, otherwise he'll definitely suffer a great loss."
"Well, what you said makes sense. I'll call Li Zhao right now. This is simply outrageous." After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Lao Chu is so "generous", he believes everything you say, but I also know that as long as Li Zhao says something, Lao Chu will definitely point his gun at me again.
Sure enough, less than ten minutes later, Lao Chu called me again. I had no choice but to answer the phone. When he answered, he spoke in a normal tone, "I just told Li Zhao what you said, but he didn't believe it at all and kept saying you were lying."
I said, "Boss, if I lie, then let me..."
"Let's not swear at each other, brothers. There's no need for that. But after all, we slept together for three years..." After a moment's reflection, he said, "That's really awkward to say. Let me say it again." He coughed and said, "After all, we've lived in the same dorm for three years, and we're both from Shanghai. I know you a little bit, but I don't believe you would do such a thing."
"Boss, you are so wise, but you also have to convince Li Zhao to trust me. We can't let our long-standing friendship end just because of a woman's words."
"This guy is so obsessed with sex that he has no eyes for anyone else. But I have a way to expose this bastard's ugly face. I have a friend named Handsome Qiang who is an expert at picking up girls. He will never refuse any woman who comes to him. I plan to ask him for help."
