Chapter 692 Shame
"Tell me, at my age, I still miss them and want to serve them meals. Am I wrong? But not only did she not appreciate it, she also caused the rental house to catch fire and burn down. What's even more abominable is that my husband was also in there and has not yet woken up. My family can't afford hospital treatment because we don't have money."
"But she's always out drinking with random men. She's never even visited her father-in-law, and she hasn't even thought about how to help her family through this difficult time. I'm so unlucky to have such a wicked daughter-in-law."
Zhang Fanghua cried and complained in front of those gossipy colleagues, portraying herself as a poor mother-in-law who was bullied. These gossipy colleagues felt so sorry for her that they began to blame Xiang Zhimu.
"Oh my god, this is so pitiful. Zhimu is such an unreasonable person. Her mother-in-law is also doing this for their own good. If my mother-in-law is willing to come to my house and cook for me, I would be so happy."
"That's right, she's so lucky, but she's already married? If her mother-in-law hadn't come over today, I wouldn't have known she was married."
"She's really capable, she's still so good at fishing even after getting married."
"What's the meaning?"
"Do you know Shan Jianqing? It's a famous villa area for the wealthy. Our company usually doesn't get orders of this level, but recently one came in, and specifically asked Xiang Zhimu to do it. Isn't this just fishing? Xiang Zhimu is too proud. An order that even the company boss couldn't negotiate, suddenly fell on her head like a pie in the sky."
"Fuck! Is that project from Shan Jianqing? I was wondering why Mr. Wu asked Xiang Zhimu to take it in such a mysterious way. It turns out he's not related to Mr. Wu, but Xiang Zhimu is actually connected to someone even more powerful than Mr. Wu."
"Then I was right today. The woman who got out of that Rolls-Royce was Xiang Zhimu. You can't judge a person by their appearance. She usually looks so honest, but it turns out she has been hooking up with a big boss for a long time."
"What's there to envy? Rich old men are all perverts. You see she looks so glamorous in front of people, but who knows how dirty she is behind the scenes."
······
Colleagues and Zhang Fanghua criticized her one after another, as if she had committed a heinous crime.
Xiang Zhimu became numb as she listened, and finally handed the resignation letter she had typed out a long time ago to a colleague with whom she had a good relationship, asking her to pass it on to Mr. Wu.
Then she looked coldly at Zhang Fanghua and those gossiping colleagues and said, "You guys chat slowly, I'll ask my rich old man to take me home."
After saying that, she called Leng Jun without even glancing at him: "Is it convenient now? I want to go back, come and pick me up."
Leng Jun was in a meeting at the time. When he saw that the caller ID on his muted phone was Mu Mu, he paused the meeting without thinking and went out to answer the call.
When Leng Jun heard that she offered to pick her up, he was very happy and wanted to go over immediately.
I originally thought that in her eyes, their relationship was shameful, but I didn't expect that she would actually take the initiative to ask him to pick her up.
"Okay, I'll go now."
He replied happily.
Feeling the pointing and talking of the nosy colleagues behind her who were arm in arm with Zhang Fanghua and asking her for an explanation, she curled her lips and sneered, "Dress young and handsome, and drive the Rolls-Royce you drove this morning to pick me up at the bottom of the company building."
"Okay, I'll definitely give you enough face."
Leng Jun also smiled.
After hanging up the phone, he went to the lounge, changed into a casual suit, tidied up his rigid hairstyle and revamped it, then went to pick up his daughter Mumu.
Seeing the young master leave the meeting room midway, Yu Zhi thought he had to deal with some important emergency. However, when he arrived at the lounge of his office, he saw that he had changed his clothes and hairstyle, looking like a peacock in mating season and about to leave. Bewildered, he asked, "Young master, where are you going? Are you canceling the meeting?"
He doesn't look like he's going out to discuss work, but rather like he's going out to hook up with rich women.
But Yu Zhi didn't dare to say it, for fear that the eldest young master would exile him to northern Myanmar.
Leng Jun was in a good mood and didn't bother to care about Yu Zhi's mood. He said directly: "You drive on for me and follow the decision we discussed before. Mu Mu is off work, I'll pick her up."
Yu Zhi: “…”
There must be something wrong with his ears.
Yes, that must be it.
Or maybe the eldest young master is crazy.
Mr. Leng just scolded me for skipping work for a week, and now I'm in love and can't even attend meetings.
He had better find an excuse for him that he was not feeling well, otherwise if Mr. Leng and Mrs. Shen knew about it, the eldest young master would probably be beaten to death before the end of the year.
Things at the company were the same as Xiang Zhimu thought. When she reached the office building and was about to leave, those colleagues who usually didn't get along with her and were gossipy about her came over, supporting Zhang Fanghua like their own mother.
Fan Jiajia looked at Xiang Zhimu and said kindly, "Zhimu, how could you just leave like this? Your mother-in-law came to see you at such an old age, how could you just leave her behind and go away?"
Xiang Zhimu laughed sarcastically and said, "You treat her like your own mother. I feel relieved when you are with her."
Zhang Fanghua said angrily: "Xiang Zhimu, how can you talk like that? Do you have any manners at all? Xiao Fan respects the elderly and loves the young and knows etiquette. Do you think everyone is like you, an orphan with no parents and no one to teach you manners since childhood?"
"Courtesy should be given to people who deserve respect." Hearing this unremarkable remark, Xiang Zhimu's hands slowly tightened, and his eyes looking at Zhang Fanghua became increasingly cold. "Auntie, this is where I work. You come here without caring about anything and causing trouble. Is that polite? Since you refuse to leave, then I will take the initiative to leave so as not to cause you any more trouble. Is that wrong?"
"You say it as if you're doing this for my own good," Zhang Fanghua couldn't stand Xiang Zhimu any more. "You just think I'm embarrassing, so you want to stay away from me."
Xiang Zhimu looked at Zhang Fanghua's disgusting face and admitted directly and frankly: "Yes, I just feel ashamed of you. When I see you talking about the dirty things of your family regardless of the occasion, I feel ashamed. I wish I had never married your son and gotten involved with a shrew like you."
"Who are you calling a shrew?"
Zhang Fanghua was furious when a junior pointed at his nose and scolded him in front of so many people, and he immediately went up to hit Xiang Zhimu.
"You little bitch, you just need to be disciplined. Our Li Jing is just soft-hearted and never beat you. I'm going to have a good talk with him when I get back. A bitch like you deserves a beating. If he doesn't, you'll never know what it means to respect your elders."
“Bang!”
Zhang Fanghua, who was shouting that he wanted to hit someone, had not yet made a move when the patient Xiang Zhimu slapped him in the face.
Zhang Fanghua was beaten so hard that he felt dizzy and his head flashed with white light as he was about to fall to the ground.
"mom--!"
Li Jing rushed over from somewhere.
