Feng Ming didn't want to face the ensuing confrontation, but once Mr. Da Mi opened his mouth, the entire situation was out of his control.
"Mr. Feng, your explanation is false. What happened in the hotel that day was not as beautiful as you portrayed. It was full of filth, betrayal, humiliation and calculation." Zhuang Li aroused everyone's curiosity with just one sentence.
Liao Meilan, who was being dragged away by her son, immediately struggled and screamed, "You bitch, how dare you say that? Security, security, where is the security guard? Throw him out!"
"Shut up!" Feng Ming roared, unable to bear it any longer. He turned to face the Chief Secretary and pleaded, "Secretary Zhuang, please stop talking. Let's just let bygones be bygones, okay?"
He knew how painful it would be to peel open the bloody wound that hadn't healed yet! This was no less painful than the second blow he suffered last night.
Unless pushed to the extreme, who would be willing to treat themselves like this?
However, Feng Ming's pleading and compassion were seen by others as a guilty conscience. It was true that they had a secret relationship.
Were Liao Meilan's accusations actually true? Were the two company bosses actually involved?
At this moment, everyone's desire to explore and curiosity reached its peak.
Liao Meilan shouted, "You're a man. If you don't want to, how can my son force himself on you? What a filthy, humiliating thing to say! Don't make yourself sound like a victim. You know best how you get your one million annual salary! I'm telling you, this company belongs to my son. He can promote you, but I can make you get out because I'm his mother!"
Zhuang Li took off his glasses in full view of everyone and sneered.
It was an expression he had never shown before: arrogant, cold, and disdainful. Without the obstruction of his lenses, his already exceptionally handsome face took on an aggression that burned the eyes.
He became extremely charming and dangerous, like a wounded beast, with a desperate determination hidden in his eyes.
Liao Meilan glared at him fiercely and continued to curse, "You slept with me, so what? How much are you worth? Do you think everyone will sympathize with you if you tell them? You are willing to debase yourself! The company belongs to my son. If I tell you to leave, you have to leave!"
Feng Ming covered his mother's mouth in unbearable pain, his ashen face twisted with extreme anger.
Why would such a person be his mother? He really hated and was tired of it!
Zhuang Li ignored Liao Meilan's provocation and simply stared into Feng Ming's eyes, shaking his head calmly: "We'll never get over what happened yesterday."
He slowly turned around, looking at everyone around him, and spoke slowly, "You're curious about what happened last night, right? Well, I'll tell you. The so-called drunkenness and card playing were all lies. The truth is, my wife cheated on me over a decade ago. She got pregnant with someone else's child, but she pretended it was mine and married me."
All the staff on the top floor: "!!!"
Feng Ming pleaded, "This is your privacy, please don't tell me."
After talking it out, Mr. Da Mi would definitely choose to leave. Because everyone here knew his most shameful past, which he couldn't face.
He spoke openly about these extremely painful experiences, which must be because he had already made his choice.
He won't be coming back.
"Stop talking, there's really no need." Feng Ming kept begging.
Zhuang Li ignored him and continued, "I raised someone else's child for fourteen years. But recently, the child's biological father returned. He's richer, more powerful, and more influential than I am. So, to divorce me, my wife conspired with my best friend to set me up. They drugged my drink and hired a stranger to help me back to my hotel room. Later, they would film me cheating on her."
Special Assistant Sun and the others all gasped. They never expected the truth to be even more exciting than a TV show!
What the hell is this woman? Did Secretary Zhuang marry a wolf?
"I noticed something was wrong with my body, so I locked the woman in the balcony and called Mr. Feng for help. That's when the scene in the video happened."
Zhuang Li looked around at everyone, his voice slowly growing deeper and colder. "My son was also involved in this scheme. I raised him for fourteen years, but in the end, he chose money. My wife wants to use this incident to take all my property. She has no feelings for me at all. My best friend has been coveting my wife since college, and we've been having an affair behind my back. Our friendship is all fake. This is what has happened to me over the past decade."
The entire corridor was silent, without a sound. Those curious, speculative, and malicious glances now turned into sympathy and pity.
Even Liao Meilan, who was repeatedly protesting with her son covering her mouth, froze. She hadn't expected the truth to have nothing to do with her son, and the alleged illicit relationship was completely fabricated! Her son had gone to save someone out of righteousness!
For her son, this was originally a good thing, as long as he could explain it clearly. But by making a fuss, she ruined her son's reputation!
At this moment, Liao Meilan felt a faint sense of regret. She realized that she had been tricked by Feng Laoer!
Zhuang Li looked around, returning each of these pitying eyes, and said in a hoarse voice, "Love, friendship, family, all betrayed me overnight. After returning home last night, I've been thinking about a question, but I still can't find the answer.
"I believe I've fulfilled my responsibilities as a father to my son. I've always been loyal, considerate, and caring to my wife. I've always been willing to give my all to my friends. Why did I end up being abandoned by everyone? What did I do wrong?"
Zhuang Li stared at everyone deeply, his expression was calm, but there were waves in his eyes.
No one could answer him.
Everyone lowered their heads and avoided him, like a trapped beast, filled with hatred and crazy eyes.
Secretary Zhuang’s current condition is really not right!
Feng Ming said hoarsely, "You're not wrong. This isn't your problem at all. Don't think about it. You're just dwelling on something, you know that?"
Zhuang Li pulled a piece of fine velvet from his pocket and slowly wiped his glasses. After a moment, he suddenly chuckled, "But just now, I figured out the answer to this question."
He raised his eyes slightly and looked straight at Liao Meilan.
Feng Ming, who was covering Liao Meilan's mouth, was stabbed by his sharp gaze and his heart trembled uncontrollably.
He had a premonition that what Mr. Secretary would say next would be terrible.
Although Liao Meilan was a little annoyed, she would never be scared by the look of a small clerk, so she glared back fiercely.
Things have gone too far, she said she would drive this person away no matter what!
Zhuang Li chuckled under her glare, but his voice was cold. "Ma'am, I know your intentions. You attacked me so publicly for four reasons. First, you want to destroy my dignity. Second, you want to damage my reputation. Third, you want to force me to leave the company in disgrace, with both my dignity and reputation completely destroyed. Fourth, you want to make sure I never have a chance to succeed in this industry."
Liao Meilan forcefully pulled her son's hand away and said contemptuously, "So what? This company belongs to my son. Whoever I want to leave has to leave! Regardless of whether you did those things or not, I will never take back what I said."
Feng Ming closed his eyes and finally said in a tone of great disgust: "Mom, the company is mine, not yours. You have no right to ask anyone to leave. Not a single word you say will work!"
Liao Meilan was furious. This was the first time her son had contradicted her in front of so many people.
Feng Ming was just about to talk about giving away shares.
Zhuang Li spoke calmly, "Why would you drive me away in such a way that was almost destructive? I've found the answer. Because you, like my wife, son, and friends, all thought I was weak and could be bullied. My tolerance indulged your malice."
He wiped his lenses faster, his tone turning cold. "From last night until now, I've come to understand one thing. When dealing with people like you, I shouldn't have given in from the beginning. You don't deserve tolerance, understanding, courtesy, or restraint. Have you ever treated anyone like this before?"
He put on his glasses and walked forward slowly, completely ignoring Liao Meilan's angry look. He just stared at Feng Ming without blinking, and suddenly said, "Boss Feng, I'll give you a chance to date me."
"What, what?" Feng Ming seriously suspected that he was hallucinating.
"Doesn't your mother suspect that we have an improper relationship? In order to prevent her from making a wasted trip, I decided to be with you." Zhuang Li moved closer again, until they were face to face with Feng Ming, their breaths intertwined.
This is a very ambiguous distance.
Feng Ming subconsciously restrained his mother who wanted to fight Mr. Da Mi, and also covered her mouth as she was about to curse.
"You, you, you, what are you talking about?" His voice was trembling and his heart was beating wildly.
People around: “!!!”
Oh my god! Secretary Zhuang has been driven crazy! In order to get revenge on Mrs. Liao, he has even lost his basic judgment. If he says he wants to be with Mr. Feng, will Mr. Feng agree? Mr. Feng will definitely refuse on the spot! How can such a thing be brought to the table!
If that were the case, Secretary Zhuang wouldn't even have the last shred of dignity left to maintain, right? What a sin! Secretary Zhuang is truly in dire straits!
Thinking of this, everyone looked at Secretary Zhuang with more sympathy.
However, they soon realized that for someone as capable as Secretary Zhuang, who could see a hundred steps ahead, mistakes in judgment were impossible, and bringing humiliation upon himself was even more impossible. He wouldn't take such a step without absolute certainty.
He narrowed his eyes and said sarcastically, "What? Are you scared? In front of so many people, you have to save face? Who is the one who secretly investigated my wife and wanted to break up my family? Who is the one who held me unconscious and got an erection? Who is the one who calls my name in my dreams?"
All staff: “!!!”
Ahhhh! I've uncovered a shocking revelation! President Feng actually has a crush on Secretary Zhuang! No wonder Secretary Zhuang dared to say, "I'll give you a chance!"
If these things were exposed, where would Mr. Feng put his face? Secretary Zhuang's move was too ruthless! Mrs. Liao wanted to destroy his reputation, so he directly peeled off Mr. Feng's face.
He was really driven crazy!
