Zhang Xianglong hadn't visited Zhang Min recently, so bringing her to the movies was indeed a good choice.
But to his utter surprise, as he came out of the movie theater, he saw Fu Linchuan coming out of the shop across the street, carrying some things in his hands.
Fu Linchuan looked at Zhang Xianglong and walked over.
"Xianglong? You're here to watch a movie?"
Zhang Xianglong felt all the blood rush to his head, and his limbs began to feel cold.
"Yes, yes," Zhang Xianglong asked, "Da Chuan, why aren't you home yet, it's so late?"
“Shu Ning said she liked the hawthorn cakes made here last time, so I came to buy some. They’re closing down soon.” Fu Linchuan waved the items in his hand.
He looked at Zhang Min beside him and asked, "Who is this? I don't think I've seen her before."
Zhang Xianglong stammered, seemingly under even more pressure from Fu Linchuan than from Sun Cuie.
Zhang Min seemed unconcerned and asked directly, "Xianglong, is this your friend?"
Zhang Xianglong nodded, "He's a brother, and also my boss."
Zhang Min was very surprised, "This is your boss? He's so young."
"Hello boss, I'm Zhang Xianglong's friend. My name is Zhang Min."
As she spoke, she extended her right hand.
Fu Linchuan glanced at Zhang Min's outstretched hand but did not shake it.
Such a woman only disgusted him.
"Xianglong, I've never heard of you having such a friend."
After saying that, Fu Linchuan turned and left, but after taking two steps, he turned back. "By the way, I ran into Zhao Ye tonight and asked him about his mother's illness. Guess what he said?"
Zhang Xianglong was very shocked.
He just made up an excuse that day.
One lie requires countless lies to cover it up, and he can't cover it up anymore.
Watching Fu Linchuan's departing figure, Zhang Xianglong clenched his fists tightly.
"Let's go, your boss has already left," Zhang Min muttered from the side. "Your boss is really arrogant; he didn't even shake my hand. Does he look down on me?"
Zhang Xianglong felt annoyed. Fu Linchuan was never one to look down on anyone, but he looked down on people who interfered in other people's marriages.
The next morning, Fu Linchuan arrived at the factory very early.
He asked around and found out that Zhang Xianglong hadn't returned to the factory last night and hadn't come back yet.
After he had been busy for a while, Sun Xiangdong came over to say hello.
"Where is Xianglong?" Fu Linchuan asked.
Sun Xiangdong shook his head. "I don't know. He didn't go home last night. I thought he stayed at the factory."
Fu Linchuan sneered. Zhang Xianglong must have slept at Zhang Min's house yesterday.
He had someone investigate Zhang Min last night, and the information was clear this morning.
Zhang Min is a female employee at a printing factory. She has been married twice before and has never had children. Both marriages ended in divorce.
None of his marriages lasted long.
After Zhang Xianglong arrived, he immediately knocked on the door.
Upon seeing Sun Xiangdong, he smiled and said, "Xiangdong is here too."
Sun Xiangdong asked, "Where did you go?"
“I didn’t go anywhere,” Zhang Xianglong said. “Xiangdong, you go ahead and do your work. I need to talk to Dachuan about something.”
Fu Linchuan said, "The three of us came from Wangshan County together, so there's no need to hide anything. Xiang Dong, come and listen too."
"Close the door for me."
Sun Xiangdong suddenly realized that the situation was serious.
What exactly happened that he doesn't know about?
The office door closed, and Fu Linchuan, completely ignoring everything else, punched Zhang Xianglong directly.
He'd been wanting to throw that punch for a long time.
Zhang Xianglong was caught off guard; of course, even if he had been prepared, he wouldn't have fought back.
He collapsed to the ground, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.
Sun Xiangdong was dumbfounded. "Da Chuan, what's wrong with you two?"
He tried to help Zhang Xianglong up, but Zhang Xianglong didn't move.
He sat on the floor. "You knew all along?"
"I warned you before, and what did you do?" Fu Linchuan was furious. "Sister Cui'e brought her child all the way from Xuancheng to celebrate the New Year with you, and what have you been doing for the past month and a half? On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, you even went to see that woman!"
Zhang Xianglong stood up and said self-deprecatingly, "It was my fault, I really deserved to be hit. But Da Chuan, at the beginning, I did make it clear to her that we were breaking up, but... but..."
"But you can't resist for the sake of your two ounces of flesh between your legs. I don't think you want to resist at all!"
Fu Linchuan retorted angrily, "Do you know her background? Do you know she's been divorced twice before? Do you know what she's after from you?"
Zhang Xianglong stared blankly at Fu Linchuan, "Da Chuan, you...you investigated her?"
“Yes, I did investigate her, so what?” Fu Linchuan said.
Zhang Xianglong wiped his lips. "She's divorced, but she's truly sincere towards me now. Da Chuan, I know I'm not human, I'm an animal, but Zhang Min... I don't know how to explain this to you. This is a matter of feelings. It's the same as how you like Chunmai, isn't it?"
"This is not true!" How could Fu Linchuan allow Zhang Xianglong to compare a disgusting woman like Zhang Min to Xu Chunmai? "Zhang Xianglong, you'd better know what you're talking about!"
Zhang Xianglong also sensed something was wrong, but said, "Da Chuan, you weren't like this before. Do you really categorize people into different classes in your mind?"
“Yes, break up!” Fu Linchuan said. “She knew you had a wife and children, yet I still interfered in your marriage. That’s despicable. And you, your wife and children are waiting for you back home, yet you went and provoked her. What did you do right?”
Sun Xiangdong, who had been standing to the side, finally understood. "Xianglong, you...you didn't find a woman in Kyoto, did you?"
Zhang Xianglong pursed his lips and remained silent.
Fu Linchuan stood by the window. "Xianglong, matters of the heart are private. Give me a straight answer: if you want to continue living with Sister Cui'e, then completely cut off all contact with Zhang Min. If you can't let go of Zhang Min, then talk to her clearly: divorce her, and leave with nothing. After that, I'll have the finance department send a portion of your money to her every month as child support. You and Zhang Min can do whatever you want!"
Zhang Xianglong stood there, stunned.
Make him divorce Sun Cuie completely and leave with nothing.
“Da Chuan, Sun Cuie and I have been married for ten years. Besides, they are my children. Are you saying that if we divorce, I can’t even take my children with me?”
Fu Linchuan turned around. "Your children? Do you even care about your two children anymore? After the divorce, you're going to take Weimin and Tingting and live with Zhang Min? Let the children live in the shadow of their stepmother?"
Zhang Xianglong plopped down there, covering his head, not wanting to face any of this.
He has been running away.
"If you don't believe me, go ask your Zhang Min whether she's willing to raise your child with Sun Cuie, and whether she wants to be a stepmother to someone else's child!"
